A mere Five Thunder Talisman was nothing to the seven-tailed fox. What surprised her was her own behavior. What was going on?

Why did she instinctively come over to shield him from the lightning strike?

Chen Ziyong looked at the seven-tailed fox above his head, his eyes filled with joy.

As expected, he was right. Persistently using sweet words to win over the same person indeed had miraculous effects.

Du Ge reacted the fastest.

The Five Ghosts Transportation Technique activated once more.

Five little ghosts lifted Chen Ziyong and ran. Du Ge’s primordial spirit instantly teleported to Chen Ziyong’s side and decisively struck down a second Palm Thunder.

Boom!

The lightning struck the seven-tailed fox again, causing her beautiful, smooth fur to explode in all directions.

“You court death,” the seven-tailed fox roared angrily. She dispersed the five little ghosts carrying Chen Ziyong with a single swipe and grabbed Chen Ziyong by the neck.

In her extreme anger, she seemed ready to strangle Chen Ziyong to death. But looking at the helpless Chen Ziyong, who had no strength to resist, she hesitated.

Du Ge, however, showed no mercy. One Palm Thunder after another fell, all aimed at Chen Ziyong.

The seven-tailed fox had to move back and forth to dodge the lightning. When she couldn’t avoid it in time, she took the hits with her body to prevent Chen Ziyong from getting hurt.

At this moment.

The five divine dragons had already dissipated.

The red-clad ghost bride and others lunged at Chen Ziyong in the seven-tailed fox’s grasp, intending to kill him and free the fox from her restraint.

But their attacks were all blocked by the seven-tailed fox. Suddenly, another Palm Thunder from Du Ge struck her, leaving her charred and furious. “How can you all be so stupid? Go kill those who can’t move and cut off Cheng Yu’s power source…”

Everyone suddenly understood.

They turned to attack Liu Guang and the others.

“Don’t harm my friends,” Du Ge raised his hand and struck down several more Palm Thunders, blocking the attackers. He then drew a Five Dragon Talisman, summoning the five-colored divine dragons once more.

This time.

The five-colored divine dragons didn’t attack but instead protected Liu Guang and the others. The five-colored dragons represented the five elements and naturally had protective powers.

Seeing that Liu Guang and the others were no longer in danger, Du Ge focused on attacking the seven-tailed fox, targeting the weaknesses in her grip. Before long, he had the seven-tailed fox infuriated. “Is this the only move you know?”

But when she looked up, she was startled.

At some point, Du Ge had completed the Upper Purity Great Cave Seal.

The Upper Purity Great Cave Seal, glowing with golden light, exuded immense pressure and could fall at any moment.

The seven-tailed fox was terrified. “How is this possible? How can you draw the Upper Purity Seal out of thin air?”

My 120,000 mental power, can I tell you that?

Du Ge muttered in his heart.

In fact, after completing the Upper Purity Seal, he felt that about half of his spiritual power was consumed, and his primordial spirit was on the verge of collapsing, ready to be pulled back into his body at any moment.

Moreover, with 120,000 mental power, he hardly ever felt tired.

But now, he actually felt a bit weary.

It had to be said.

If this were any other candidate in the examination field, they wouldn’t be able to draw it. It was too exhausting.

You have to understand, their mental power at most was a few hundred. Even if given time to grow, they still wouldn’t be able to draw it. This thing was a BUG.

The blade-wielding ghost general, the ghost bride, and others were speechless as they looked at the Upper Purity Seal floating in the air.

Outside the Demon Sealing Cave, there was a dead silence.

“Do you submit?” Du Ge held the Upper Purity Seal and asked.

The seven-tailed fox looked at Du Ge in the sky, her face showing a struggle, and finally knelt down slowly. “I submit.”

“I submit,” the ghost bride knelt down and said.

“Submit,” the nine baby ghosts and other ghost kings also knelt before Du Ge, trembling.

They had no choice but to submit.

Their cultivation levels were extremely high, nearly immortal. The Tianshi Seal could only suppress them, not truly kill them.

But the Upper Purity Seal represented the authority of Upper Purity and could absolutely kill them.

No one wanted to be killed just after regaining their freedom. Even though they saw Du Ge’s weakness, they didn’t dare to bet on escaping from the Upper Purity Seal.

Success!

Du Ge breathed a sigh of relief.

Amidst the fearful gazes of everyone, he slowly descended with the Upper Purity Seal.

The fox demon and others had all submitted. The drawn Upper Purity Seal couldn’t be wasted.

Du Ge thought for a moment and suddenly saw the Tianshi Seal he had moved earlier. He picked it up with one hand and pressed the drawn Upper Purity Seal onto it.

A flash of golden light.

The ancient Zhang Tianshi Seal was replaced by the Upper Purity Seal.

Seeing this.

The seven-tailed fox gulped, no longer daring to think of fighting Du Ge. The miracles he displayed were too many.

After dealing with the Upper Purity Seal, Du Ge’s primordial spirit could no longer hold on and returned to his body. Then, with a thought, he dispersed the borrowed power of Together in Adversity.

As the power left his body, his Golden Elixir cultivation level instantly dissipated, returning to the Divine Transformation stage.

After several simulation fields, where his power would suddenly upgrade to the maximum, and then return to normal after coming back to reality, Du Ge had long adapted to this transition and didn’t mind it.

Having subdued the seven-tailed fox and several ghost kings, he knew this simulation field was stable.

After all.

He had just absorbed the spiritual power of over three hundred people from Tianshi Mountain, pushing himself to the Inner Elixir stage. The fox demon and ghost kings had at least a thousand years of cultivation. With their combined power, even the ghost king of Beimang Mountain would have to kneel before him.

Moreover.

He had created a new magical artifact.

The Upper Purity Great Cave Seal represented the highest power in this world.

Even if it could only be used once, the candidates from the Special Affairs Bureau probably couldn’t withstand it.

Even if they took first place in the simulation field and integrated the cultivation techniques of various sects, they couldn’t withstand a single strike from the Upper Purity Seal.

The Martial Saint of the first simulation field, the Sea God of the third simulation field…

Du Ge imagined himself as the ultimate BOSS of the two simulation fields, then shook his head. Without a certain amount of luck, the candidates in the simulation field couldn’t possibly be their match…

Moreover.

Only a few days had passed in this simulation field.

…

At this moment.

Liu Guang and the others, who had regained their mobility, had almost exhausted their spiritual power. They stood weakly, looking at Du Ge holding the Upper Purity Seal, not knowing what to say.

The black mist and the net in the sky above Tianshi Mountain quietly dissipated, restoring the clear sky, but no one cared about that anymore.

After a long while.

Liu Guang clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Du Ge. “Junior Liu Guang greets Immortal Master Cheng.”

“Wu Huai greets Immortal Master Cheng,” Wu Huai also bowed.

Zhang Ziqing and the others didn’t hesitate to follow suit, their eyes full of excitement. Drawing talismans in mid-air, creating the Upper Purity Seal by hand, the Inner Elixir stage was indeed worthy of being called a terrestrial immortal, so majestic.

Previously, the Inner Elixir stage had become a legend.

Although Cheng Yu had entered the Inner Elixir stage with external help, it still gave them hope.

After all, they were now practicing the cultivation techniques improved by Cheng Yu.

“Don’t be like this, we’re all friends,” Du Ge shook his head and helped Liu Guang and the others up. “My Inner Elixir stage was achieved with everyone’s help, it’s not real. When I truly reach the Inner Elixir stage one day, then you can bow to me.”

“When we rescue the Sect Leader controlled by the Heavenly Demon of the Special Affairs Bureau and complete the other cultivation techniques, everyone will have a chance to enter the Inner Elixir stage. By then, we will all be immortal masters and should address each other as Daoist friends…”

Liu Guang shook his head stubbornly. “Immortal Master, the capable come first…”

Du Ge interrupted him, pretending to be displeased. “I said we’re friends. If you keep this up, you’re looking down on me and making me angry. I’ll cut ties with you. Besides, I plan to leave this world in the future. Being friends with you is already satisfying enough. Don’t call me Immortal Master anymore…”

“Leave?” Liu Guang was stunned.

Zhang Ziqing and the others remembered Du Ge’s identity and were momentarily at a loss, unable to accept it.

“Brother Cheng, can’t you stay?” Zhong Xie looked at him with hopeful eyes.

“I’m afraid not,” Du Ge shook his head with a smile, feeling a bit melancholic. “I am originally a Heavenly Demon, my mission is to eliminate other Heavenly Demons. Once I complete that, I should retire. Should I stay and harm this world?”

“Zhong Xie, Ziqing, this world is ultimately yours to protect. Being able to make friends with you and leave behind a complete set of cultivation techniques is already enough for me.”

Zhang Ziqing and the others had red eyes. “Brother Cheng, don’t say that. Meeting you is our greatest fortune.”

The seven-tailed fox and others had complicated expressions, completely unable to understand the purpose of these Heavenly Demons.

No matter how it started, Du Ge always managed to gain genuine friendships in the end. After all, he never mistreated those around him.

And the attribute boosts from true friendships were much higher than those from fighting.

Feeling the enhancement in his body, Du Ge smiled and changed the topic. “Alright, everyone, hurry up and recover your cultivation. We still need to rescue the other Sect Leaders!”

Chen Ziyong also opened his personal interface, looking at the new skills he had gained. Suddenly, he felt disheartened, losing the courage to share them with Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu could gather everyone’s strength for his own use, and he could easily dominate the battlefield on his own. His presence was unnecessary.

He sighed silently. It turned out that not everyone could be like Feng Zhong and Wang San by Du Ge’s side.

“Old Chen, what’s the new skill you got?” Du Ge hadn’t forgotten him. Understanding the advanced skills of each keyword would help him accumulate experience for the Alien Star Battlefield.

Good skills could be emulated, bad ones avoided.

What if he randomly got a confession skill?

Just like discrimination, he felt that the two advanced skills he developed were not ideal, probably because he went in the wrong direction.

The friendship he created unilaterally was “Not Knowing Each Other Without Fighting,” but when Zhang Ziqing and others reciprocated, it created “Together in Adversity,” which was incredibly powerful. This seemed to be the correct way to develop skills.

Understanding the pattern, he could cultivate his advanced skills purposefully in the future, rather than relying on luck.

“Shared Fate,” Chen Ziyong laughed dryly. “Anyone who marries me will share life and death with me.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

The seven-tailed fox’s face turned pale, her body swayed, and she almost fell to the ground.
