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

Chapter 403 Welcome to the Yuan Cult Family! (4.2K views, please subscribe!)

"Well, just come back."

Chen Nuoyi really wanted to say that, but when she saw Su Yuan appearing naked in front of her, pretending to be very handsome, she swallowed back the words she had been preparing for a long time.

He, along with Mortis, Leng Qianliu, and Zhu Tianqing who were present, all turned their heads away with strange expressions.

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the many girls, Su Yuan finally realized that something was wrong.

hiss--

He was so busy showing off in front of Blood Soul True Lord that he was summoned in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to put on his clothes.

Now look what happened! What was supposed to be a hero's return story has completely fallen apart!

Su Yuan silently suppressed the triumphant expression on his face, using the rustling sound of dressing to cover up his embarrassment, and the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.

After he was dressed in clothes in the style of the Celestial Law World, he coughed lightly, and the girls turned their heads back to him.

However, Xuan Haoran, who was present, made no attempt to avoid suspicion from the beginning, and looked at Su Yuan with great interest.

After he finished dressing, she asked in a slightly sour tone:

"How did you suddenly reach the Golden Core stage? I remember during the Sword Trial Tournament, weren't you only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage?"

He glanced at Chen Nuoyi again and continued:
"Moreover, your little girlfriend knew exactly that you would advance to the Golden Core stage today, and even used a Golden Core stage prisoner to summon you here. The two of you are obviously hiding something from us."

Hearing this sarcastic question, Su Yuan chuckled and said:

"Actually, there's nothing to hide from you. It's just that we don't need your help in the whole plan, so we didn't say anything beforehand."

"If I announce it in advance and everyone knows about it, but my plan fails, wouldn't that be very embarrassing for me?"

Zhu Tianqing then asked:
"Master, what happened during the blood sacrifice ceremony? And how did you advance to the Golden Core stage?"

Su Yuan was just waiting for someone to ask that question.

In an instant, the embarrassment he had felt from running naked vanished. He lightly flicked his sleeves and said in a nonchalant tone:

"It's nothing. We simply wiped out all the high-ranking members of the Blood God Cult right under Blood Soul True Monarch's nose, saved more than 500,000 people, and incidentally tricked Blood Soul True Monarch, causing him to drop a minor realm."

Xuan Haoran, Zhu Tianqing, Leng Qianliu, and Qin Jin: "???"

Are you referring to the language of Heaven?

You, a Golden Core cultivator... no, you were only at the Foundation Establishment stage before, and you managed to do something like this?

This is no way to brag.

Fortunately, Chen Nuoyi and Mortis provided timely supplementary information, recounting how he used the Crown of Corruption and the blood sacrifice ritual, which dispelled any doubts that there was something wrong with their ears.

"But even with the blessing of the Crown of Corruption, it is still remarkable that you were able to withstand one move after another from a Nascent Soul True Monarch."

Leng Qianliu spoke with reverence, making a gesture as if adjusting her glasses, but unfortunately, she only managed to adjust empty air.

Su Yuan smiled and said:
"The Crown of Corruption is the treasure of the Heavenly Lord of Corruption, and I have inherited all of his legacy. This treasure is destined to be mine."

"It's worth taking some risks for this treasure and for the profits from the blood sacrifice ritual."

While saying this, Su Yuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

As the saying goes, "He appears holy in public, but suffers in private..." In this battle, he paid off a full thousand points of luck and overdrawn one-third of the Yuan Sect's resources. If he doesn't make up for it quickly, the entire Yuan Sect may collapse as a result.

Fortunately, this is the best opportunity to develop the Yuan religion.

Thinking of this, Su Yuan's tone became serious, and his gaze swept over the Yuan Sect members present:
"After this battle, the Blood God Sect is now leaderless. It is the perfect time for our Yuan Sect to expand rapidly, recruit these demons, and grow stronger."

"However, in this process, we still have one major obstacle, which is Blood Soul True Monarch."

"If he gets involved, it will be difficult for us to take over the remaining forces of the Blood God Cult."

"Fortunately, based on my understanding of this person, Blood Soul True Monarch is very cautious. He may have realized that there is a terrifying power behind us."

"Following this line of thought, let's try to scare him a little. Maybe we can scare him away so he'll never set foot in the legal world again."

Xuan Haoran thought for a moment and said:
“I have some treasures left to me by my father, the master of Guantian Pavilion. If I reveal a little bit of their divine power, it might make Blood Soul True Monarch hesitate and abandon the Blood God Sect.”

Su Yuan nodded slightly and reminded him:

"But be careful not to reveal anything that might alarm the Holy Law Council."

"If one could disguise oneself as a descendant or disciple of a certain deity of the Holy Law Council, that would be best."

Xuan Haoran: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Su Yuan continued:
"In the time leading up to my promotion, we must thoroughly take control of the Blood God Cult."

"After completely taking control of this demonic sect, the Blood God Sect will retain its original name to the outside world, and will only use the name of the Yuan Sect internally."

"Moreover, not all members of the Blood God Cult are worth recruiting; the vast majority of them are ruthless villains who kill without hesitation."

"I suggest that these incorrigible demonic cultivators, as well as the Golden Core stage pirates such as Wei Chenghai and Qin Jin who were captured before, go directly to the black mud that the corrupt divine kingdom has turned into, and turn them into completely loyal soldiers."

"Make the best use of everything and everyone's talents."

Everyone nodded in unison, expressing their approval of Su Yuan's arrangement.

As for the headquarters of the 'New Blood God Cult', Su Yuan plans to establish two.

The first headquarters was the original location of the Blood God Cult's headquarters, while the second headquarters was Blood Mist Island, which Su Yuan had visited when he killed Wu Sheng.

Blood Mist Island was under the control of the Blood God Cult. It was a den of iniquity for the pirates of the Law Sea and also a good intelligence exchange station.

In addition, Blood Mist Island has been secretly and completely transformed by Su Yuan's corrupting spores, and its underground has been filled with black mud.

Even if Su Yuan is gone, the Yuan Sect leader remaining in the Heavenly Law World can still use the black mud here to brainwash targets...

Of course, the leader of the Yuan Cult only had command authority over the brainwashed targets; the real control was firmly in the hands of Su Yuan himself, with the addition of Chen Nuoyi, the vice leader of the Yuan Cult.

After some discussion, Xuan Haoran and others, who were also the executors of the Maigou Plan and cadres of the Yuan Cult, had a full understanding of the future action plan.

Of the only two outsiders present, Qin Jin trembled as she listened, feeling despair at the prospect of her mind being controlled and her becoming a slave.

The other person, Mortis, listened silently, her calm eyes gradually brightening.

In fact, Mortis was worried when Su Yuan first proposed replacing the Blood God Cult with a dubious sect called 'Yuan Cult'.

She feared that after destroying one Blood God Cult, an even more terrifying Blood God Cult would emerge.

But after hearing Su Yuan's arrangements for Qin Jin, Wei Chenghai, and other demonic cultivators, she felt completely at ease.

Although Su Yuan's actions were somewhat bizarre, everything he did was very satisfying.

They truly dealt a heavy blow to the demonic cultivators, showing no mercy whatsoever.

At the same time, after hearing Su Yuan say that he possessed the complete inheritance of the Heavenly Lord of Corruption, Mortis's suspicions, which had been vaguely rising in her heart, were completely confirmed.

She knew it! The black mud she'd seen in the Moonfall Space was somewhat similar to the black mud techniques that Blood Soul True Monarch sometimes displayed. This also explained why Su Yuan was able to easily wrest control of the Crown of Corruption from Blood Soul True Monarch.

"Are Su Yuan and his companions disciples of the Heavenly Lord of Corruption?"

Mortis had this guess in her mind, but quickly shook her head.

Unlike that, perhaps the 'Corrupted Divine Kingdom' that Su Yuan possessed also came from a certain inheritance secret realm, only it was a more complete inheritance than the one obtained by Blood Soul True Monarch.

She was more inclined to believe that Su Yuan and the others came from outside the Heavenly Law World.

Because these people, apart from speaking the language of Heavenly Law, are culturally very different from the people of the Heavenly Law world.

"Hehe, I guess I've boarded a pirate ship now, a pirate ship from another cultivation civilization."

Mortis murmured to herself, unsure whether her choice was good or bad.

Just then, Su Yuan's sudden voice interrupted the girl's thoughts.

"Motis, would you like to join the Yuan Cult?"

The girl with light green hair and snow-white skin slowly raised her head and saw Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi and others looking at her with gentle expressions.

Among them, Su Yuan generously extended his hand to her.

The girl was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked:
"What exactly does your Yuan Cult, and the forces or civilizations behind you want to do?"

Upon hearing this question, Su Yuan made no attempt to hide the pride in his voice, and replied earnestly, solemnly, and without hesitation:
"Of course, it's to change the world."

In a daze, the girl felt that Su Yuan was bathed in a layer of radiance, dazzling and radiant.

She looked down at her toes, hesitant and uncertain, but her slender, fair hands reached out uncontrollably, wanting to touch the warm sunlight.

Just as she was considering whether she would be hurt by the light, Su Yuan suddenly reached out and pulled her into the crowd.

"Congratulations, you're now one of us."

Su Yuan said with a smile:

"You'll be working with us for now. Once everything settles down, I'll take you to see our world, a place far more beautiful than the Celestial Law World."

Mortis didn't speak, but a glint of light appeared in her eyes.

"Hey, don't make any promises you can't keep."

"However, given this kid's ability to protect himself, he shouldn't be in any serious trouble."

Xuan Haoran muttered a couple of words to himself, then coughed lightly and said:

"By the way, Su Yuan, are you free now? I have some questions about Core Formation."

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan released his grip on Mortis's hand and nodded to Xuan Haoran.

He actually had no experience whatsoever in advancing to the Golden Core stage, so he needed to ask Xuan Haoran, a second-generation immortal with a family tradition of learning, for advice to avoid making any mistakes.

Chen Nuoyi also turned her gaze to Xuan Haoran and listened attentively.

Xuan Haoran asked the first question:
"You should have formed an outer core by now, right?"

Su Yuan: "Yes, I can fuse the Nascent Soul Treasure with my own power through a special external core forging method, and refine it into a top-grade external core."

“My current outer core is fused with the Crown of Corruption, and if I want, I can directly take out this Nascent Soul treasure and replace it with other Nascent Soul treasures.”

Upon hearing this, Xuan Haoran's lips twitched violently.

Damn it, where did this kid get such an awesome external alchemy forging technique? Even his dad never gave him such amazing gold coins!
Forcibly incorporating a Nascent Soul treasure to refine an outer core, one can imagine how terrifying the power of this outer core would be, probably no less than the dragon pearl of a true dragon of the same realm, or even stronger.

This method is no less than that of a master cultivator who has already achieved the level of a Nascent Soul.

"But... you're just a Foundation Establishment... cough, a Lesser Golden Core cultivator, where did you get so many Nascent Soul treasures? And you think you can switch between the Crown of Corruption and other Nascent Soul treasures at will? How many dishes did you eat to get this bad?"

Xuan Haoran was internally ranting and raving.

However, he should be glad he didn't say those words out loud, otherwise he would have been instantly embarrassed.

Because Su Yuan actually possesses more than one Nascent Soul level treasure.

Leaving aside the newly acquired Crown of Corruption, the incomplete Nascent Soul Treasure is the weakest Nascent Soul Treasure in Su Yuan's possession.

The other two are the Xuanqi Sword, which is currently sealed, and the Dragon Emperor Coin, which was swindled from Long Bai.

The value of the Dragon Emperor Coin goes without saying. It is a supreme treasure for Nascent Soul cultivators, and it can be used by people of any level without being restricted by their cultivation level. Its versatility is far greater than that of ordinary Nascent Soul treasures.

As for the Xuanqi Sword, although it was disobedient before, after the Dog System weakened the sword spirit's intelligence, it can now be used by me.

If I could fuse with this pure killing sword, my combat power would surely rise to a very powerful level.

Based on this calculation, the Dragon Emperor's Outer Core is a monster with a mechanism that can forcibly take away the target's equipment, the Corruption Outer Core is a tank with an immortal effect, and the Mysterious Outer Core is an assassin with extreme destructive power.

The boost from the divinely crafted external elixir alone made his combat power system extremely comprehensive.

Unfortunately, each cultivator can only possess one of the divinely crafted external pills, and they cannot be replicated, which is a great pity for Su Yuan.

"Based on your description, your external core should not occupy your internal core advancement system."

At this moment, Xuan Haoran carefully considered his words and spoke:

“You can definitely take the dual Golden Core route, improving your inner core through cultivation on one hand, and improving your outer core through nurturing and refining on the other.”

"This route is much more complex and difficult than the single Golden Core stage, but the benefits are also enormous. It makes one far stronger than other Golden Core cultivators at the same level, and also increases the success rate of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage."

After a pause, Xuan Haoran added:
"Of course, it's not to say that a single Golden Core is necessarily inferior to a double Golden Core; it all depends on the individual's choice."

After listening to Xuan Haoran's introduction, Su Yuan suddenly understood and gained a better understanding of the Golden Core realm.

After swallowing the corrupted elixir, he gained immense power, but he also quickly discovered the shortcomings of the elixir-making method.

What Su Yuan found most unacceptable was that his current Golden Core Realm strength came entirely from the divinely created outer core itself. After spitting out this outer core, his cultivation would quickly drop back to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Clearly, the higher one goes on the path of external alchemy, the more one will rely on external forces and resources.

This made him more inclined to choose the method of internal alchemy.

Of course, only children make choices; adults want it all.

Su Yuan had originally planned to cultivate both internal and external alchemy, but he was worried that the two golden cores would conflict. Fortunately, Xuan Haoran provided timely answers, dispelling his doubts.

After observing Su Yuan's expression for a moment, Xuan Haoran smiled slightly and said:

"It seems you are ready to embark on the path of dual Golden Core cultivation. Now, I will explain to you the precautions for the method of internal alchemy."

"After all, external cores can be spat out and used for cultivation at any time, but internal cores cannot; they must be chosen correctly the first time."
