Other than the three Celestial Green Elixirs, the ten pieces of white armor looked extraordinary as well.

Every single piece of armor didn't look very outstanding, but if one were to look closely, one would notice that the armor was woven from countless scales that were the size of a fingernail. Every single scale had runes flowing on it, and they emitted a dazzling white glow.

The bodies of the golden swords also radiated with dazzling golden light. Within the light, one could vaguely see the silhouettes of a flood dragon and a giant elephant rolling about. Sometimes they would roar, sometimes they would roar, sometimes they would coil around, and sometimes they would crawl.

"Thank you, father, for the reward!" Shi Zhanfeng's face was filled with joy as he accepted the items.

When the people on both sides saw this scene, most of them revealed a look of envy. Shi Chuankong's eyes also shone, as if he was also a little greedy for these treasures.

On the other hand, Shi Pokong and Shi Jingyan were quite calm. The former's face was expressionless, while the latter had a faint smile on her face. No one knew what she was thinking.

"Fellow Shi, what kind of elixir is the Celestial Green Elixir? It's so mysterious, could it be some kind of Dao Elixir?" Han Li asked Shi Chuankong.

"The Celestial Green Elixir is not a Dao Elixir, but a kind of Holy Elixir for body refinement.

A few tens of thousands of years ago, Imperial Father headed to the depths of the Ten Calamities Mountain Range and personally killed a Golden Immortal Realm Azurefiend Ox. With its Blood Essence and a few hundred types of precious materials, he spent an entire few hundreds of years to refine 81 Azurefiend Exquisite Pills. Every single one of us Princes was bestowed one, and coupled with the other rewards we've received over the years, there's probably not much left now.

After consuming one, as long as there is an appropriate cultivation method to guide it, the medicinal effect is enough to open up a few or even a dozen Xuan acupoints, greatly increasing the strength of the body cultivator. "Shi Chuankong let out a long breath and said.

"I see.

The armor and sword must be extraordinary. "When Han Li heard this, he was also shocked.

"The Taichu Sacred Armor and the Dragon Elephant Suppressing Sword are also very powerful magic treasures. If an ordinary Golden Immortal Mystic wears the Taichu Sacred Armor and holds the Dragon Elephant Sword, he can fight against a Taiyi Realm cultivator. This time, father really gave big brother a lot of rewards." Shi Chuankong continued, his tone was not very happy.

Han Li's eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything.

With these ten sets of armor and swords, the Eldest Prince, Shi Zhanfeng, would be able to instantly foster a team of Darksiders with extraordinary strength. Just as Shi Chuankong had said, their combined strength wasn't inferior to an initial-stage Golden Immortal Realm cultivator.

Shi Zhan Feng accepted the reward and left.

The Third Prince, Shi Pokong, stood up and walked forward. He first bowed deeply to the Demon Lord, and then he took out a jade booklet and said respectfully:

"Imperial Father, your son has been ordered to monitor the movements of the border for the past few years. This is the compiled report, please take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, a grey shadow flashed in front of him, and the jade book appeared in the Demon Lord's hand.

The Demon Lord raised his hand and flipped through it. He nodded and said, "Alright, you've worked hard."

Shi Pokong bowed once more, not showing the slightest sign of being ignored as he returned to his seat with a calm expression on his face.

"Really, Third Brother, why don't you act like Big Brother and take the opportunity to give Imperial Father some things to curry favor with him?

Imperial Father is obviously in a good mood today, so he must reward him with some good things. "Shi Pokong sighed in disappointment.

Han Li glanced at Shi Pokong, who had returned to his seat. The other party seemed to have sensed his gaze and looked over, but he only smiled slightly.

"Imperial Father, I'm not as capable as my two elder brothers. All these years, I've only been managing the Hundred Flower Guild and haven't made any other achievements.

This is the Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Painting that I and the sisters in the guild spent a hundred years embroidering. Congratulations to Imperial Father for achieving the Dao of Dao Ancestor soon and unifying all the realms. "Shi Jingxiu stood up slowly and waved her hand to take out a huge painting that was dozens of feet long and tens of feet wide.

On the painting was an embroidered painting of mountains and rivers. The mountains rose and fell, stretching to the end of the horizon. A huge red sun rose from the east, illuminating the mountains and rivers.

The embroidery was exquisite and majestic, and it spread through the painting in all directions.

"Alright, my son is considerate. Shadow, take out the Royal Emerald Smoke Cauldron and give it to Jingxiu." The Demon Lord nodded slightly and ordered.

The shadow disappeared in a blur, then quickly reappeared with a green three-legged cauldron in his hand.

The cauldron was half the height of a grown man and had an antiquated design. There were nine orifices on the top of the cauldron, from which wisps of green smoke would occasionally emerge and revolve around the cauldron before seeping into it.

"Thank you, Imperial Father." A hint of joy appeared on Shi Jingxiu's face, and she withdrew the Royal Emerald Smoke Cauldron.

After that, the Sixth Prince, Shi Mingzhen, stood up and walked out.

Just like that, the princes and princesses presented themselves to the Devil Lord one by one. While reporting their affairs, they also presented some gifts to the Devil Lord to please him.

The Demon Lord would bestow upon those who gave him gifts.

Soon, it was Shi Chuankong's turn.

"Imperial Father, I haven't been in the Holy Region for the past few years, and I haven't paid enough attention to the Vast Origin House's business. Please punish me, Imperial Father." Shi Chuankong walked out of the crowd and presented an account book to the Demon Lord.

"Punish what? Chuankong, you haven't been in the Holy Region. Although the Vast Origin House's business has experienced some ups and downs, it hasn't declined. Now that you've returned to the Holy Region, you just need to reorganize it." The Demon Lord took the account book, flipped through it, and put it down.

"Thank you for your magnanimity, Imperial Father. I've traveled to the World of True Immortals, and I've come across the ruins of the Truth Sect. I've found this treasure there, and I would like to present it to you, Imperial Father." A silver light flashed in Shi Chuankong's hand, and he took out the Luozha Pipa and presented it with both hands.

Everyone in the hall was experienced and knowledgeable. When they saw Luo Zha's pipa, they immediately recognized it and started discussing it.

Shi Zhanfeng and the others also looked over with different expressions on their faces.

"The Luozha Pipa is finally back," the Demon Lord murmured, and he raised his hand.

The Luozha Pipa immediately floated up and flew back to his hand.

The Demon Lord's fingers gently stroked the pipa, and a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes.

Everyone in the hall saw this, and they didn't say anything.

"Good, Chuankong, you've really done a great job in bringing back the Luozha Pipa this time, and I'm very pleased. Tell me, what reward do you want?" The Demon Lord quickly came back to his senses and said to Shi Chuankong.

"I'm doing things for Imperial Father, so I don't dare to ask for a reward," Shi Chuankong said with his head lowered.

"Haha, I've always been a person who rewards meritorious deeds. If you don't get a reward for your meritorious deeds, wouldn't everyone in the world criticize me?" The Demon Lord said with a laugh.

Seeing that the Demon Lord was so happy, everyone in the hall also laughed.

Although Shi Zhanfeng had a smile on his face, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

Not far away, the Fifth Princess Shi Jingxiu's beautiful eyes also flashed, and she looked at Shi Chuankong with a solemn expression.

"Pass down my decree, the Thirteenth Prince has found the treasure, and he has worked hard and done a great job. He will be conferred the title of Marquis of Tian Shang. As for the land, since the Sky Rainbow Region doesn't have an owner now, I'll give it to you," the Demon Lord said after thinking for a while.

As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall suddenly went silent, and they looked at the Demon Lord in surprise.

Han Li also raised his eyebrows.

After all these years of understanding of the various places in the Demon Territory, he knew that the Sky Rainbow Region was an extremely fertile land in the Demon Territory. Moreover, the few main passages that passed through the Demon Territory all passed through the Sky Rainbow Region. It was the throat of the Demon Territory, and its geographical location was also very important.

Such an important place was actually given to Shi Chuankong to manage. It was no wonder that the surrounding people were surprised.

"Thank you, Imperial Father, for your kindness, but I can't accept such a great reward. Please take back your decree, Imperial Father." Shi Chuankong was shocked, and he immediately knelt down and said.

"When have I ever taken back my reward? The Sky Rainbow Region is very developed, and it's suitable for you to manage it. Manage it well, and don't let my efforts go to waste." The Demon Lord looked at Shi Chuankong and said calmly.

"Thank you, Imperial Father, for your kindness. I will definitely not let you down." Shi Chuankong looked at the Demon Lord's eyes, opened his mouth, and agreed with a deep voice.

"You may leave." The Demon Lord waved his hand and dismissed Shi Chuankong.

"Reporting to Imperial Father, I still have something to report," Shi Chuankong said hurriedly.

"Oh, what else do you want to say?" The Demon Lord asked with some surprise.

"Imperial Father, it was all thanks to Fellow Li that I was able to find the Luo Zha Pipa from the ruins of the Truth Sect. On the way back to Yang Ye City, we were attacked several times. It was also thanks to Fellow Li's help that we were able to escape danger.

Fellow Li's contribution is much greater than mine. Imperial Father, please give him some rewards, "Shi Chuankong said quickly.

"Oh …" The Demon Lord turned his eyes and looked at Han Li.

Han Li stood up and lowered his head.

Everyone in the hall looked at Han Li, but Han Li's face was calm, without a trace of emotion.

"Li Feiyu, although you are not a member of the Sanctum, since you have made such a contribution to the Sanctum, we naturally have to reward you. Tell me, what do you want?" The Demon Lord nodded and said.

"Fellow Shi and I are friends who have gone through thick and thin together. I should not ask for a reward for what I have done. However, I have a problem that I cannot solve myself, so I shamelessly ask for a reward from the Holy Lord." Han Li said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.

"What problem? Tell me." The Demon Lord asked calmly.

"Reporting to the Holy Lord, my good friend's soul has been injured for some reason. Unfortunately, she has the body of a Xing Beast. Currently, the essence in her body is constantly dissipating. Ordinary methods will not work at all. Please allow the High Priest of the Sacrificial Hall to check on my friend." Han Li cupped his hands and bowed again.

"Oh, so you just want to save someone. That's easy. Zhan Feng, call the High Priest over and have him treat his friend." Hearing this, the Demon Lord laughed involuntarily and said to the Crown Prince.

Shi Zhan Feng cupped his fist in a salute toward the Devilish Lord before turning to Han Li with an apologetic expression, and said, "Father, the High Priestess went into seclusion 10 years ago. Would you be able to treat Fellow Daoist Li's friend after she comes out of seclusion?"

"Since that's the case, we can wait.

However, how long does the High Priest usually stay in seclusion? "Han Li asked without any surprise.

"That's hard to say. After all, seclusion can be long or short. Sometimes it's only a few years, sometimes it's hundreds of years. However, rest assured, as long as the High Priest comes out, I will definitely ask him to treat your friend." Shi Zhan Feng said.
