"The Six Sects have always offered a high reward for killing a True Disciple of the Four Demon Sects: twenty thousand Merit Points, one Spiritual Artifact, and one Golden Core Daoist Technique."
A Spiritual Artifact is worth at least twenty thousand Spirit Stones, and the Golden Core Daoist Technique given as a reward can be passed down without restriction. It's enough to serve as a family's legacy, making it a priceless treasure for cultivators who aspire to establish an Immortal Cultivation Clan.
It's precisely because the rewards are so high that the Six Great Sects are so strict about verifying Merit Points.
Only after the Dark Room confirmed that a True Disciple of the Illusion Demon Sect had indeed died, obtained their detailed information, and was able to match it did the Northern Army Governor's Mansion officially credit Yang Jing with the achievement.
