In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 361 From this day forward, I am Su Youlin! (4K chapters available, please subscribe!)

"Su Yuan, let me explain the mission information to you now."

As Su Yuan admired the scenery of the Celestial Law World, Captain Zhang spoke up.

Su Yuan immediately snapped out of his daze and listened attentively.

Then Captain Zhang pointed to a continent of great world size, its outline resembling a plum blossom, and said:
"You need a cultivator who impersonates you, who comes from this great world called the Cold Plum World, and is a famous commoner genius in that world."

"His name is Su Youlin, which happens to be the same as your surname."

"At the age of twenty, he has already achieved the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. In the Cold Plum World, this achievement is a peerless genius that is only seen once in a hundred years."

"After layers of fierce competition, he stood out from tens of thousands of competitors and gained the opportunity to ascend to the upper realm."

"Three hours from now, he will ascend to immortality through the ascension passage. That will be the best time for us to intercept and kill him."

After hearing this basic information, Su Yuan nodded in understanding.

But immediately, he frowned at a single word in Captain Zhang's words:

"Interception?"

"That's right, it's an ambush."

Captain Zhang nodded calmly:

"Before the spiritual energy revival, the Cold Plum World was in a period of constant warfare and agricultural civilization. After the spiritual energy revival, the civilization did not progress. Like the ancient cultivation world, it followed the law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak."

"In such an environment, for a commoner genius to rise to prominence, there is nothing more to it than burning, killing, looting and plundering."

"This commoner genius named Su Youlin, who is also a rising star of the demonic path in the secular sense, has killed hundreds of people, which is simply outrageous."

“This kind of person cannot be tolerated by the Blue Star Federation, and we have the right to deal with him ourselves.”

Su Yuan suddenly realized:
"He actually killed over a hundred people; he truly is a ruthless demon. What about yesterday?"

Captain Zhang: "...What yesterday?"

Su Yuan asked hesitantly:

"Aren't these hundreds of lives Su Youlin's achievements today?"

Captain Zhang: "..."

The well-informed Nascent Soul True Lord widened his eyes slightly, unable to believe that he was hearing this question from a young man who had grown up in a peaceful world.

The Guanlu has been on missions overseas for more than a year or two. Captain Zhang's last return to Earth was ten years ago.

Because it is too far from the mainland, the Guanlu can not connect to the mainland's spiritual network, so it is difficult to know about the various news of the Blue Star Federation. At most, it can hear some important information when contacting the headquarters.

For example, a Golden Core cultivator at the peak of his cultivation stage has formed his Nascent Soul, or a powerful and difficult world has been conquered by a True Monarch.

A student's rise to fame is clearly not considered important intelligence.

Therefore, Captain Zhang first heard Su Yuan's name last month when Su Yuan was identified as the executor of the Maigou Project.

He obtained Su Yuan's impressive resume from headquarters and was very satisfied with this executor.

But he didn't know how Su Yuan's resume came about.

He had always thought Su Yuan was a model student who embodied the fine values ​​of the Federation.

For such a good student to ask such a strange question was naturally far beyond Captain Zhang's expectations.

Ultimately, however, he dismissed Su Yuan's strange questions as the whimsical ideas of a young person.

Surely this kid couldn't have actually committed the feat of slaughtering a hundred people in a day... He wouldn't have had the opportunity to do that anyway.

Captain Zhang, unaware that a mountain of corpses lay inside Su Yuan's Moon-Catching Pearl, thought to himself.

After learning about Su Youlin's situation, Su Yuan understood why his teacher felt that the task of impersonating Su Youlin was more suitable for him than for Xuan Haoran.

Replacing the original demon with the current one definitely makes it faster to get started.

"Captain Zhang, how exactly do we intercept and kill them? Do you need my help?"

Su Yuan asked earnestly.

Captain Zhang smiled and shook his head:

"The interception cannot be accomplished by a single cultivator; it requires the power of the Guanluhao."

He pointed to the pipe connecting the two worlds:

"Did you see the pipe connecting the Cold Plum World to the Heavenly Law Main World?"

"This pipe is extremely tough; even with my full strength, I couldn't break it."

"Only by relying on the disguise effect of the Guanlu ship to simulate the same properties as the pipe can we temporarily infiltrate it and hold out for a maximum of five minutes."

"Under these circumstances, our interception plan must be simple and decisive."

"When Su Youlin passes through the tunnel, we will pilot the Guanlu at top speed into the tunnel and capture him."

"At that time, you will only have five minutes to dig into Su Youlin's life, learn his habits, find out his goals after ascending to the main world, and then enter the pipe, ascend along Su Youlin's original path, and completely replace him."

“Once the planned time is exceeded, Guanlu will have to exit the pipeline. To re-enter, it will need to accumulate power for a week, which will cause it to miss Su Youlin’s ascension deadline, thus leading to mission failure.”

Towards the end, Captain Zhang's tone became very serious:
"Su Yuan, you have a heavy responsibility in the interception plan. Prepare well, and we will take care of the other difficulties for you."

Su Yuan didn't say much, but nodded solemnly.

Three hours is not a long time. The Guanlu ship has already begun its operation, heading silently toward the pipe that connects to the Cold Plum World.

Although the world of winter plum blossoms was visible to the naked eye, it was as difficult as looking at a mountain and running a horse to death. It took the Guanlu ship a full hour and a half to finally arrive at the pipe.

Upon getting closer to the pipe, Su Yuan discovered that this so-called pipe was actually a hollow pillar with a diameter of hundreds of miles, incredibly magnificent.

Through its translucent walls, Su Yuan could see the ethereal mist rising inside.

If one were truly immersed in it, even Su Yuan himself would feel that it was a path to immortality, leading to the heavens.

Thinking of this, Su Yuancai suddenly realized that he had just observed the true form of the Heavenly Law World, but had not seen the legendary Immortal Realm.

It seems that the Immortal Realm is indeed not in reality, but in a special space that cannot be located. Only through the orthodox ascension ceremony within the Heavenly Law World can one see the Immortal Realm.

This is also his ultimate goal as the executor of the plan.

More than an hour later, tiny figures set off from the world of winter plum blossoms, heading upwards along the 'Path of Ascension'.

Su Yuan guessed that these people were probably ascendants from the same batch as Su Youlin, but most of them came from prestigious families and had extremely complex interpersonal relationships, which is why they did not become the targets of the plan's executors.

Moreover, among the same batch of ascendants, having one undercover agent is the limit; the more undercover agents there are, the easier it is to be exposed.

There seems to be some special acceleration array on the path to ascension, allowing these cultivators with only Foundation Establishment cultivation to move at an incredible speed, no less than those with Golden Core cultivation.

Before long, the Ascended were quite close to the Guanlu. Captain Zhang showed Su Yuan the photos of the target he had secretly taken, so he could accurately identify the target from among the twenty-odd Ascended.

He was a young man with long chestnut hair tied up, handsome features, tall and straight posture, wearing an ancient-style blood-red robe, and eyes that gleamed with coldness and death.

This person is the one Su Yuan is going to impersonate: Su Youlin, the only commoner genius of the younger generation in the Cold Plum World, and a rising star in the demonic path.

Su Yuan was very satisfied with the model of Su Youlin.

It's only slightly inferior to the real him.

What worries Su Yuan is that Su Youlin is mixed in with more than twenty ascendants, and there is a Golden Core Peak cultivator leading the team. How can he accurately intercept and kill him without being discovered?
Before Su Yuan could ask any questions, the Guanlu ship suddenly moved.

Without making any extra preparations, the massive spaceship crashed headlong into the 'Path to Ascension'.

The semi-transparent pipe, whose barrier was thousands of meters thick, remained completely still after the impact, yet the Guanlu ship miraculously penetrated the barrier and continued forward.

Its silky smoothness is like a drop of water falling into a glass, blending perfectly and becoming indistinguishable.

In the blink of an eye, the tip of the Guanlu pierced through the pipe wall and entered the pipe.

At that moment, the Ascended team rose up from below, coming within arm's reach of the Guanlu.

However, all the ascendants, including the leader who was at the peak of the Golden Core stage, completely ignored the massive Guanlu Ship and passed by it.

This gave Su Yuan a clearer understanding of the Guanlu's disguise and intrusion capabilities.

Federal Technology – a trustworthy partner.

Soon, Su Youlin will also be passing by the Guanlu ship.

Just then, Captain Zhang, across the spaceship, casually grabbed the young man.

The young man in the blood-red robe instantly appeared inside the spaceship, right in front of Su Yuan.

Su Yuan ignored the other person and looked at the spot where Su Youlin had just been. There he saw a figure that looked exactly like the latter, flying upwards with the main force without any apparent abnormality.

“That’s a puppet I prepared in advance. It can hold the fort for a while. Once you’re all ready, I can let you switch places with the puppet so you can catch up with the main group of ascension.”

Captain Zhang quickly offered an explanation.

Su Yuan nodded slightly, not too surprised.

It would be strange if a Nascent Soul True Monarch didn't even have this much skill.

He withdrew his gaze from the outside world and turned his attention to Su Youlin, the demonic genius who was still in a flying posture but ended up falling on his backside.

At this moment, the young man with chestnut hair and a blood-red robe was clearly unaware of the situation and was observing his surroundings in confusion.

However, having risen through the ranks from humble beginnings, his confusion lasted only a few seconds before his expression suddenly changed, and he growled in a slightly terrified voice:

"You...you are extraterrestrial demons!!!"

As a cultivator under the rule of the Heavenly Law World, the young man in the blood-red robe naturally spoke the Heavenly Law language. Su Yuan, who had learned this language, could understand it without any difficulty and communicate with it.

"Extraterrestrial demons?"

Su Yuan's lips twitched. He wanted to refute it, but then he felt that the statement was quite apt.

"Su Yuan, there's no need to waste words with him."

Captain Zhang spoke coldly:
"Time is of the essence. We don't have time to persuade him to surrender. We'll just use the soul-searching technique to get all the information in his mind."

"Anyway, this person is a wicked demon who has harmed many righteous cultivators, so it doesn't matter if the soul-searching method is a bit crude."

"Although the information may be somewhat incomplete under such a brutal soul search, it is the fastest method available."

As he spoke, Captain Zhang reached out his hand toward the young man's head, amidst the horrified gaze of the man in the blood-red robe.

But at that moment, Su Yuan spoke up:

"Captain, there's no need for that."

Captain Zhang was slightly taken aback, then frowned.

Could it be that Su Yuan, that kid, took pity on this demon and softened his heart?

However, in the next second, Captain Zhang realized that his idea was wrong, and terribly wrong.

Then Su Yuan casually stretched out his hand towards the young man in the blood-red robe, and crimson, corrupting light surged out like a tide, instantly enveloping him.

In an instant, this person was completely corrupted by the corrupting light, and his flesh and soul became Su Yuan's servant.

Immediately afterwards, Su Yuan took out a silver-white metal rod from the Calamity Moon Pearl, and with a gentle shake, a banner composed of holographic projections appeared.

As the banner swayed gently, the soul of the young man in the blood-red robe drifted out uncontrollably and quickly disappeared into the banner.

Then, faint sounds of torture and the wails of the blood-red-robed young man could be heard coming from inside the banner.

In less than ten seconds, the young man in the blood-red robe, greeted by tens of thousands of cyber brothers, revealed all the information clearly, which was then organized and displayed on the holographic projection.

With a thought, Su Yuan quickly magnified the holographic projection, allowing him and Captain Zhang to review it together.

Captain Zhang stared blankly at the scene, a strange sense of confusion rising within him: "Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?"

Wait... Su Yuan, why are you so skilled at this?!

He looked down at the blood-robed youth's body and found that it had collapsed into a pile of decaying fungus under the influence of the Corruption Light. Su Yuan casually put it into the Calamity Moon Pearl, leaving only a set of clothes, a few ornaments, and a storage magic treasure.

With his physical body collapsing and his soul returning to the Myriad Souls Banner, this rising star of the demonic path named Su Youlin died just like that!

Captain Zhang knew very well that the combat power of top students from the ten immortal sects would definitely be higher than that of cultivators from the barbaric world, but wasn't Su Yuan just a freshman?
Instantly defeating the most promising rising star of the demonic path in a great world, isn't that a bit too disrespectful?
Moreover, this skillful technique is as if it has been practiced on thousands of people, making it even more monstrous than a demon...

No wonder Wuluo Zhenjun and the newly promoted Zhanyuan Zhenjun think so highly of this kid.

Captain Zhang had a lot of complaints he wanted to make, but considering the five-minute time limit, he could only suppress his strange thoughts and look at the information in the holographic projection.

This information can be divided into three parts. The first part lists Su Youlin's life and personality traits.

Simply put, this is a young man who, due to his humble origins, suffered bullying from a young age, which led to a certain degree of psychological distortion and ultimately to extremes.

Unlike those who typically go to extremes, this young man is usually very calm and reserved, only showing his crazy side on a few occasions.

Because of his identity as a commoner and a demon, he was ostracized by the other ascendants in the same batch.

After ascending to immortality, all interpersonal relationships will be severed completely.

The second part lists Su Youlin's skills, martial arts techniques, Taoist methods, supernatural powers, and so on.

Su Yuan glanced at them and found that they were not difficult at all. He could learn them with a little practice. Moreover, this person happened to be a half-baked swordsman, so his use of the sword would not arouse suspicion.

The third part is this person's goal after ascending to immortality, and it is also the most important part of the intelligence.
