In Xianxia With The Investment Return System, Starting My Journey by taking Demon Empress as a Disciple: Chen Daoxuan stumbled upon an extraordinary system after crossing into a new realm. Whenever he took an apprentice under his wing, unimaginable rewards awaited him, and the critical hits from his apprentices would return ten thousandfold. Puzzled, Chen Daoxuan wondered, “Why don’t my disciples seem to regard me the same way?” The eldest disciple, the Demon Empress, declared with unwavering loyalty, As long as the master gives an order, the disciple is willing to sacrifice everything in the world for the master.” Second Disciple, Saintess: “What is the highest state of Master?” Third Disciple, Sword Immortal: “Damn it, the world says I am the number one swordsman genius in the world, but why am I not even ten thousandth as good as my master?” As word of Chen Daoxuan’s abilities spreads, the reverence towards him grows. Many Holy Places: “If we are a holy place, then his power is like a heavenly existence!” All Immortals in the Immortal World: “His strength is not comparable to that of our fairyland, and he is probably already the supreme saint!” Saint Supreme: “Don’t get involved with me, I don’t want to face that existence either!”
Chen Daoxuan couldn't help but clench his fists and stomp his feet in frustration, feeling the pain of losing over a thousand system points.
Sect Master Luo alone yielded over three hundred system points from his own spatial ring. If they had looted the entire sect's treasures and collected all the spatial rings from everyone else, it would have been worth at least a thousand or even more.
Chen Daoxuan regretted his earlier decision. If he had known, he wouldn't have created so many Sky Monuments and leveled Luo Heaven Sect to the ground.
There were other ways to wipe out the sect and still preserve the precious treasures.
"Master! Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?"
Leng Yanran, who had been standing nearby, was alarmed when she saw her Master suddenly clutching his chest and showing a pained expression.
She quickly stepped forward and reached out to massage his chest.
"No, it's just some painful memories. By the way, from now on, our Heavenly Dao Hall should emphasize frugality. When dealing with enemies in the future, remember to collect their treasures before taking action. After all, we shouldn't waste valuable resources, right?"
Chen Daoxuan was taken aback by Leng Yanran's sudden closeness, but he appreciated her concern.
He gently held her hand to reassure her that he was fine and gestured for her to step back.
Having her so close was making him slightly uncomfortable, as her hair occasionally brushed against his cheek, tickling him.
However, he still wanted to emphasize the point he made earlier and advised Leng Yanran not to waste resources.
"Yes, Master. In the future, when I annihilate enemies, I'll make sure they surrender their treasures before I strike."
Leng Yanran blinked, a bit puzzled about why her Master suddenly cared so much about the worthless items he had mentioned earlier.
However, she decided to follow his instructions without questioning them.
"Um, never mind. That's the general idea. You understand."
Chen Daoxuan raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
His adorable disciple seemed to have quite a ruthless streak in her.
He had merely suggested collecting resources from enemies, but somehow, by the time it reached Leng Yanran, it had become a plan to wipe out entire factions.
But none of that really mattered.
As long as someone provoked his Heavenly Dao Hall, they would face annihilation, and he would gladly accept the accompanying system points.
Little did he know that his beloved disciple, in the northern region, had already become infamous for her ruthless and swift killings, earning her the title of the "Demoness of Mass Slaughter."
"By the way, Master, there's something else. Sect Master Yang Chun mentioned that a secret realm will open in the northern region in two months. It's rumored to contain the legacy of an ancient immortal.
"It should hold numerous treasures, and various major powers from the northern region, or even elsewhere, may come to try their luck. Master, would you like your disciple to go and explore it?"
Leng Yanran finished speaking and stood by quietly, waiting for her Master's decision.
Initially, she believed her Master wouldn't be interested in such matters.
However, after he mentioned the need for frugality and collecting valuable treasures, she decided to propose this exploration idea.
Her intention was to collect a substantial amount of treasures from the secret realm for her Master.
As for the so-called legacy left by an ancient immortal, Leng Yanran had no interest.
What inheritance could compare to the techniques her Master had passed down?
Upon hearing about the secret realm, Chen Daoxuan pondered for a moment.
Currently, each breakthrough required a thousand years of cultivation.
If he were to use system points for breakthroughs, it would be an exchange rate of one thousand points for each realm.
With just over four thousand system points accumulated, he could only advance to the Fifth Layer of the Sea of Qi Realm at most, not even reaching the Void Sky Realm.
If Leng Yanran's strength improved, he could gain rewards, but her progress wouldn't be sufficient to meet his expectations.
Secret realms typically contained abundant treasures and opportunities, often attracting geniuses from various regions.
If any Saint-grade talents were present, Chen Daoxuan might even consider accepting another disciple during this opportunity.
When the time comes, not only will valuable treasures be exchanged for a substantial amount of system points, but there will also be an additional disciple.
Apart from the rewards for accepting a disciple, each time the disciple breaks through in the future, he will receive rewards as well.
From any perspective, Chen Daoxuan felt that this secret realm was a promising opportunity.
"Very well, in just a short period of over half a month, you have progressed from the Fourth Layer of the Void Sky Realm to the current Seventh Layer of the Profound Sky Realm. Going to that secret realm for training will also have significant benefits for your own cultivation.
"As for the valuable treasures, just take them along. I, your master, don't really mind."
Chen Daoxuan contemplated for a moment before chuckling lightly.
"Master…"
Upon hearing these words, Leng Yanran was deeply moved once again!
Indeed, her position in her master's heart was the most important.
Her master didn't even care about the valuable treasures.
He only suggested the secret realm to help her adapt to her current strength and gain experience from battling various geniuses.
"Alright, it's settled. You'll head to the secret realm two months from now."
"Yes, Master!"
"Ah, but during these two months, you shouldn't be idle. Focus on training the Demonic Heaven Finger. I'll provide some guidance as well."
"Really? Master, you'll personally guide my cultivation? Thank you so much, Master!"
Upon hearing that her master would personally guide her in cultivating the Demonic Heaven Finger, Leng Yanran's eyes lit up.
Her master had already bestowed upon her such an incredible cultivation technique; she was immensely grateful and dared not trouble her master any further.
Chen Daoxuan didn't pay too much attention to it and simply smiled, tousling Leng Yanran's hair.
The progress of his disciple's cultivation was of utmost importance to him, far surpassing his own cultivation.
He looked forward to seeing her reach higher realms, each breakthrough bringing him rewards of tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands or even millions of years of cultivation.
Feeling her master's affection, Leng Yanran's head started to feel a bit feverish, as if steam might just start coming out of her ears.
She couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by her master's kindness.
In no time, the two were standing in the open space before the grand hall, facing each other. Chen Daoxuan stood with hands behind his back, a gentle breeze swaying his robes gracefully, giving him an almost ethereal aura.
On the opposite side, Leng Yanran focused intensely, adjusting herself to the peak state.
"Master, I'm ready!"
"Demonic Heaven Finger!"
Finally, with a melodious shout, Leng Yanran made her move. The Demonic Heaven Finger was unleashed, aimed directly at her master.
Her current level was worlds apart from before.
As she executed the Demonic Heaven Finger, the illusion of the demonic figure appeared even more solid, and its malevolent aura grew even more intense.
Yet, her master, without any urgency, calmly extended his finger, not even utilizing any mystic techniques, and lightly tapped her fingertip.
As their fingers touched, the illusion of the Heavenly Demon instantly dissipated, leaving not a single ripple behind.
"Again!"
