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

Chapter 475 Boss Chu Jiang is so much fun!
The old man's question left the children present looking at each other in bewilderment, trembling with fear.

Unfortunately, the era in which these children lived was relatively conservative, and there was no such thing as an LGBT community. People were very resistant to gender reassignment.

It can only be said that this magical old Taoist was born in the wrong era. If he had been revived a few hundred years later, let alone men turning into women, you could even turn people into armed helicopters and people would be lining up to come to you.

Seeing that none of the children were willing to cooperate, the old Taoist priest's expression turned cold.

"I, Daoist, am offering you this fortune for free, yet you dare to make excuses and refuse. You are truly a bunch of useless mud that can't be helped!"

"But whether you like it or not, this medicine needs someone to try it. If no one is willing to try it, don't blame me for calling out names!"

As he spoke, the old Taoist's murky and cold gaze swept over one boy after another present.

Su Yuan, hiding in the crowd, felt a chill run down his spine.

Oh no! If we go by the actual course of history, Chu Lanxi is most likely to have been chosen as a guinea pig for the drug trial!

With Chu Lanxi's 'natural beauty', even though he was malnourished, he shone brightly like a candle in the dark among all the children.

Damn it, how am I supposed to hide this?

Seeing that the old Taoist's gaze was about to fall on him, Su Yuan had no choice but to activate the effect of the title "Speedy Demon Cultivation".

Q: How do I get through this challenge?

Speedrun effect activated!

The next second, a series of answers appeared in Su Yuan's mind.

A: Let Master also become a woman.

Su Yuan: "???"

What kind of bullshit answer is this?
Who is Master? Is it that old Taoist priest with messy hair and beard?
How horrible it would be if he turned into a woman! Surely the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill doesn't come with a beauty filter!

Su Yuan's brain froze for a full second before he rolled his eyes in exasperation.

He misunderstood the requirements of this level from the very beginning; Chu Lanxi simply didn't care whether she consumed the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill or not.

What he cared about was whether his so-called master, that mysterious old Taoist, would take the elixir.

In real history, the old Taoist priest most likely didn't have anything to eat.

Therefore, in this illusion, only when the mysterious old Taoist priest takes this pill can Chu Lanxi's thoughts be clear.

As expected of you! Whether it's your true form or your shadow, you're the ultimate source of amusement!
Boss Lan is so much fun!
Fortunately, she had the title of "Speedy Demon Cultivation" as a cheat code. If it were someone else, they would never have realized Chu Lanxi's heaven-defying idea and would have only tried the most foolish moves to refuse to take the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill.

The consequence of refusing was obvious: being beaten to death by the enraged old Taoist priest.

If we really get to this dead end, no matter how many people come, how many times we reopen, or how many methods we try, we won't be able to get through this hurdle at all.

As for why Chu Lanxi didn't give any hints?
Although Su Yuan suspected that this guy just wanted to be a spectator and watch the show, upon closer reflection, he thought it was unlikely.

He was likely restricted by the lingering will of the fake Chu Jiang, preventing him from revealing the crucial details of the checkpoint.

So the question is, how do we persuade that old Taoist priest to also take the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill? He specializes in refining this kind of pill, so he himself should also be considering taking it.

As he was pondering, a pair of cold eyes fell on Su Yuan.

"Chu Jiang, my favorite disciple, would you be willing to share your burdens?"

Hearing that forcedly gentle yet chilling tone, Su Yuan felt a chill run down his spine.

He had no doubt that if he refused, he would be killed by this old man in the Golden Core stage, or at the very least, he would be beaten up, causing him to fail the trial.

With his mind racing, Su Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and give an answer.

"My apprentice...is willing."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the children present visibly breathed a sigh of relief, and the old Taoist priest nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad, I was right about you."

As he spoke, the old Taoist flicked his finger, and the scarlet pill that resembled the Overlord's Egg flew into Su Yuan's hand in a flash.

A strange, pungent medicinal smell, both fragrant and foul, wafted into Su Yuan's nostrils, causing him to furrow his brow almost imperceptibly.

Holding the pill, Su Yuan hesitated, as if something was troubling him.

Why aren't you eating? Have you changed your mind?

The old Taoist priest's sinister voice rang out.

Su Yuan quickly shook his head and said:

"This humble disciple is deeply grateful for the divine favor bestowed upon me by my master. However, master, if I consume this elixir, will you be without any more pills to use?" The old Taoist priest was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said:

"You seem to care about your teacher quite a bit, kid. Don't worry, I have another one here."

As he spoke, he reached out and flipped his hand, revealing a fist-sized, scarlet pill in his palm.

Su Yuan then put on a relieved expression, and under the old Taoist's watchful gaze, he finished the pill in just a few bites.

The medicinal power erupted from the crushed pill, and Su Yuan immediately felt excruciating pain all over his body, as if he were being modified at the genetic level.

Such pain is no less than being kicked hard by a magic pill at a level of a hundred times greater than normal. Most people would not be able to withstand it; rolling on the ground and howling in agony would be the least of their worries.

It's possible to die from the pain.

However, Su Yuan gritted his teeth tightly, showing no sign of anything unusual on his face.

Although he lost most of his abilities, including the Demonic Art of Finger Body, after being dragged into the illusionary world, his Dao heart remained intact.

With a steadfast Dao heart, a mere fatal pain is nothing more than something to endure and pass.

The pain was endless and relentless. Su Yuan could clearly feel that his body was transforming into a woman. In about fifteen minutes, the transformation would be completely completed.

This made him exclaim in amazement that the old Taoist priest was a great talent.

Even modern cultivation techniques cannot fundamentally change a person's gender, yet your small workshop has managed to produce such an achievement by hand.

It's a little painful. Could it be that this old Taoist priest didn't dare to swallow the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill because he was afraid of the pain?

But despite his thoughts, a confused expression appeared on his face, and before his voice changed, he said:

"Master, why isn't this pill working? I don't feel anything after taking it."

The old Taoist priest was taken aback, then exclaimed in astonishment, "What? This is impossible!"

Su Yuan spread his hands and circled around in front of the old Taoist priest twice to show that he really hadn't changed at all.

He said with a sincere expression:

"Master, is this medicine not working for me? Would you like to let someone else try it?"

Upon hearing this, all the children around him tensed up, staring at Su Yuan with expressions that seemed to say, "Are you a devil?"

The old Taoist paced back and forth, glancing at Su Yuan, whose expression remained unchanged, and then at the last remaining Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill in his hand, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.

After a long while, the old Taoist priest gritted his teeth and said:
"My elixir can't possibly be ineffective, Daoist Master. I'll try it myself."

As he spoke, under Su Yuan's expectant gaze, the old Taoist put the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill into his mouth and swallowed it.

The next second, the old Taoist priest's body trembled violently, his whole body shook like a leaf, large beads of sweat rolled down his skin, and his eyes were bloodshot.

thump--

Under the shocked gazes of the children, the usually domineering old Taoist priest fell heavily to the ground and began to roll around frantically.

He kept scratching his skin, leaving bloody welts, as if countless insects were crawling all over him.

He wanted to scream, but like a fish out of water, he could only open his mouth but couldn't utter a sound.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Upon seeing this scene, Su Yuan couldn't help but burst into laughter, her laughter carrying a touch of girlish sweetness.

"Old man, your Dao heart isn't firm enough. You can't even endure this little bit of hardship."

Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest immediately understood that he had been tricked, but the pain that was almost piercing to his bones made it impossible for him to muster the strength to kill Su Yuan. He could only grit his teeth and endure it.

Fifteen minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

The skin that the old Taoist had scratched had completely healed, revealing new, pink and white skin.

His aged face became full of collagen, his messy beard fell out, and even his gray hair turned into a smooth silver-gray.

Combined with her already short stature of only 1.5 meters, she looked exactly like a white-haired, youthful-faced little girl.

"Tsk tsk, this Yin-Yang Reincarnation Pill really does have a beauty effect? ​​But why doesn't it work on Chu Lanxi? Could it be that this guy's appearance has already reached the upper limit of human beauty?"

As Su Yuan observed the changes in the old Taoist priest, he compared the changes in the old man with his own.

The nearly exhausted old Taoist priest struggled to his feet, his small face filled with anger:
"You! Chu Jiang! You bitch, how dare you scheme against me!"

Su Yuan: "Hahahahahaha!"
