Cultivating Immortality? I’m Just a Pheasant Who Collects Protection Money

The ultimate gangster cultivates immortality! ◆ The System demands rent! ◆ Heavenly tribulations force you to pay up! ◆ The underlings rise to godhood! ◆ Even the Heavenly Dao has to pay!

In his previous life, he was called Shanji, a street thug who finally fell to a gunshot.

In this life, he is Zhao Shanhe. He opens his eyes in a world of immortal cultivation, where mist swirls around the peaks, and finds himself bound to a "protection money System."

"Cultivate immortality? What a load of crap! All I know is how to collect protection money!"

Collect protection money = grow stronger! Spirit stones, magical treasures, cultivation techniques, good fortune... The more ruthlessly he collects, the more outrageous the rewards!

Fail? The heavenly tribulation will deal with you! At best, you'll be roasted to a crisp. At worst, your soul will be annihilated!

I make the rules! From "toll fees" to "Heavenly Dao maintenance fees," there's nothing he doesn't dare charge for!

This is the path of a rogue Immortal Emperor defying the heavens,

and a wild rent-collecting spree that turns the cultivation world upside down!

The cultivation world's rules? From today on, the rules of Zhao Shanhe are the laws of heaven!
