Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Looking into the distance, one can already see a figure standing on the Execution Platform; it is none other than Tianqi, the last god-king of this realm.

Compared to his mortal days, when he was carefree and indifferent to everything, now that he has regained his true form as a deity, he exudes immense pressure at first glance.

His aura was icy, and his expression was serious.

Standing there, it's like a pillar supporting the sky, giving off a sense of unapproachability; even if you were standing right in front of it, it would still feel distant.

"Things have really changed."

Tu Shanyue's heart pounded, and she didn't dare to get too close.

The immortals hurriedly went to greet him, with the Azure Lan Immortal Emperor leading the way and addressing him as Divine Lord.

"Canglan greets the Divine Lord."

"We have met the Divine Lord."

A powerful and resonant voice boomed out, shaking the clouds apart.

Apocalypse simply nodded and got straight to the point.

"Canglan, has there been a ruling on the matter of the Ancestral Lotus?"

"This……"

Emperor Canglan gritted his teeth and said with a forced smile.

"My Lord, the evidence is not yet complete, and it is not time to make a decision."

"is it?"

Tianqi suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"Pray for good luck and go to the Immortal Platform."

The Immortal Lord of Prayer for a Good Harvest, who was being held down by two celestial generals, was also taken aback. He had not expected that the Celestial Lord of Revelation, who had not descended from the Outer Heaven for tens of thousands of years, would intervene in this matter.

Even with full confidence, he couldn't help but be intimidated by the deity's imposing aura.

He knelt trembling in the center of the execution platform, breathing rapidly.

Apocalypse flew into the air and delivered its verdict with a single word.

"Qin Nian, for secretly researching demonic energy, has violated the rules of the Heavenly Palace. He shall be punished with ten bolts of heavenly lightning to set an example!"

"fall."

Boom————

The patterns on the Execution Platform suddenly shone brightly, and the dark clouds in the sky formed an inverted funnel-shaped thundercloud. Golden lightning bolts struck straight down, tearing Qinian's skin and flesh apart, causing him immense pain.

But a smile was on his face.

The Heavenly Enlightenment God Lord mentioned that he was secretly researching demonic energy, but did not mention plotting to harm the Ancestral Lotus, indicating that he had passed this test.

It's unclear who will be pinned the blame on.

He is experiencing both pain and pleasure right now.

The other immortals also changed their expressions, both frightened by Qi Nian's tragic state and realizing that the White Lotus Immortal Clan was about to suffer.

The Celestial Emperor Canglan hesitated, but remained silent.

After all ten bolts of heavenly lightning struck down, Tianqi gently raised his hand, and endless immortal spiritual energy gathered in the void, pouring into Qinian's body.

"However, considering that the development of the [Spirit Transformation Technique] has contributed to the Immortal Realm, I will be rewarded with the infusion of immortal spiritual energy to cleanse my bloodline. As long as I cultivate diligently for the next three thousand years, I will surely be able to step into the realm of Immortal Venerable."

Oops.

This reward is substantial, allowing one to refine their bloodline and directly ascend to the Immortal Venerable realm. For the Mountain and Sea Immortal Clan, this is undoubtedly a great opportunity. However, Gu Qing's divine sense avatar realized that the Heavenly Enlightenment Divine Lord seemed to be able to suppress the immortal spiritual energy formed by the origin of the Immortal Realm.

This isn't something you can do just by moving your fingers.

Besides its own spiritual nature stemming from its own laws, its strength has also reached a certain extreme, making it at least the strongest existence at the fourth rank in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

After receiving the infusion of celestial energy, Qinian's injuries were completely healed.

"Thank you for the divine favor. I will definitely pass on the art of spirit transformation to every immortal who is willing to learn it. I will also continue to work hard and do more things that are beneficial to the immortal race."

"Go back."

"Yes."

"Bai Yazhi, go up to the Immortal Platform."

The second character appears, Bai Yazhi is pale, looks like she has a serious illness, is covered in cold sweat, and dares not move at all.

Her father, the White Lotus Clan Chief, gritted his teeth and stood up.

“My Lord, my daughter is still young. I fear that the lightning punishment will damage her essence and she will no longer have the potential to become a Celestial Venerable. I am willing to take the punishment in her place.”

Tianqi remained expressionless and silent, staring intently at the White Lotus Clan Chief, who was so frightened he dared not move, let alone bristle.

Immortal Emperor Canglan suddenly spoke. "Divine Lord, Canglan believes the evidence is incomplete and we cannot resort to extreme punishment. Furthermore, Yazhi's statement has just been verified; it was not her doing..."

"Shut up."

Tianqi suddenly turned to look at Canglan, his aura pressing down on her like an abyss or a prison. The other party gritted his teeth and struggled to hold on, which moved all the immortals. Emperor's grandson Qiyue looked reluctant and was about to go up and plead for mercy.

But nothing has been done yet.

Suddenly, something appeared in Tianqi's hand—the body of the Ancestral Lotus, stained with filth and blood.

A blue lotus flower.

Its body, which should have been clean, was covered with red, vein-like tendrils that blended completely with the lotus body.

The Azure Lotus Immortal Clan cried out in surprise and knelt down in unison.

"Zu Lian! Divine Lord, what is this...?"

"You begged me to save her life, but before her soul returns, I have no way to remove the filth without harming her."

"Once Ancestral Lotus's primordial spirit returns from her tribulation, I will personally help her recover. For now, her physical body will remain under my care; no one in the Six Realms can harm her."

"Thank you for your help, Divine Lord. The Azure Lotus Immortal Clan is deeply grateful."

Back to topic.

The Heavenly Enlightenment God looked at Canglan.

"You want evidence, right?"

"Look closely, this is the [Art of Cause and Effect]. The Father God overlooks all living beings in the world, and nothing that happens in the six realms can escape His eyes, no matter what means are used."

As divine power surged, several blood-red tribulation lines spread out from the Ancestral Lotus, quickly wrapping around Bai Yazhi, the White Lotus Clan Chief, a White Lotus Elder, and Qinian.

Another one ventured into the void and disappeared.

Five causal lines, with the particularly thick red one on Bai Yazhi's body, signifying that she is the mastermind behind this matter.

The lines on Qinian's body were the faintest, subtly revealing demonic energy.

This corresponds to the reason why he developed the Spirit Transformation Technique. The second layer of cause and effect is that White Lotus Elder.

With such irrefutable evidence, there is no room for further discussion.

Tianqi snorted coldly.

"What, do you want me to personally take you to the execution platform?"

The three members of the White Lotus Immortal Clan exchanged glances. Their ambition and self-interest were overwhelmed by panic, and they had no confidence to fight to the death.

Qi Yue and the others breathed a sigh of relief. At least Immortal Emperor Canglan wouldn't be blamed; his words were merely a precaution...

But never thought about it.

Immortal Emperor Canglan suddenly knelt down and proclaimed.

“Yazhi is my partner. Canglan is also guilty of this. I beg the God to let me bear Yazhi’s punishment instead.”

"No!"

"No!"

Qi Yue could no longer sit still and slid forward on her knees.

"My Lord, no! This matter has nothing to do with the Emperor."

Bai Yazhi was also filled with disbelief. She hadn't expected Canglan to go to such lengths for her. The two stared at each other for a long time without looking apart.

"This is fucking ridiculous."

These words were spoken by Gu Qing's divine sense, and only Tu Shan Yue could hear them. She was engrossed in watching when she was suddenly awakened and immediately expressed her dissatisfaction.

Why are you so startled?

"I think I understand now. What a Heavenly Revelation, what a Canglan. I really don't understand this kind of mentality among the Immortal Clan."

Before Tu Shan Yue could speak, Tian Qi calmly agreed.

"I will grant your wish."

The three immortal emperors, Bai Lian, and the clan leader ascended the Execution Platform together.

The charges against Tianqi were not even read aloud; he was immediately subjected to torture.

"One strike prolongs life, ending the immortal body."

"No!"

Bai Yazhi cried out in anguish. No one knew whether she was truly heartbroken or feigning it. This was truly a case of the Divine Lord stepping into the Heavenly Palace, and the Emperor losing all face. (End of Chapter)
