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

Chapter 487 War criminals like Su Yuan should be sent to the execution platform! (3K votes requested!)

"Su Yuan, will... will it hurt?"

"Don't worry, it won't hurt. I'll be very gentle."

"But Noy is still watching from the side."

"It's okay, she won't mind."

No... I do mind a little.

In a pavilion at Hu Hai Manor.

Looking at Su Yuan and Qi Hanyue standing face to face, and listening to the lewd words they uttered, Chen Nuoyi inwardly groaned.

But she couldn't very well interrupt.

Because what Su Yuan was about to do turned out to be a very important matter.

Su Yuan reached out and placed his palm on Qi Hanyue's forehead, activating the Demonic Art: Finger Spirit: Human Pill.

As the pink-haired girl's body trembled slightly, a luminous elixir appeared in Su Yuan's palm.

It is a human pill containing the dazzling talent of 'limitless'.

"Su Yuan, what use is my talent to the Demon Dream Grass?"

Qi Hanyue's slightly weak voice rang out as she asked in confusion.

Su Yuan smiled and said:
"The concept of elixirs has never been limited to human consumption. They can be given to spirit beasts, or even buried in the ground to be absorbed by plants."

"Take this Limitless Pill in my hand, for example. As long as this pill is buried in the spirit field where the Dreamweaver is planted, the Dreamweaver can gain part of the effects of the Limitless Talent."

"You should know the power of Wuji better than I do. It is a powerful talent that allows the user to make endless progress."

After hearing Su Yuan's explanation, Qi Hanyue and Chen Nuoyi couldn't help but exchange a glance, both seeing the deep surprise in each other's eyes.

No! Feeding a plant with the Limitless Pill to accelerate its evolution?

Putting aside the fact that this kind of operation is a waste of resources, the sheer audacity of this idea is beyond what an average person could come up with!
Who would be so kind as to use a magic pill as fertilizer?

In fact, Su Yuan's imagination was not very big; this idea came from the speed-up method given by 'Speed-up Demon Cultivation'.

By using the Limitless Talent to enhance the Demon Dream Grass, it rapidly undergoes positive evolution and mutation, gradually advancing from an ordinary herb to a low-grade spiritual medicine, then to a high-grade spiritual medicine, until it evolves into a deadly temptation that no demon race in the cultivation world can resist.

This is the nemesis of the demon race!
"We should hurry up and plant the Dream Grass."

Su Yuan gave the order in a deep voice:
"Hanya, contact the Dreamweed merchant in your hometown immediately and ask them to send the best Dreamweed seedlings over as soon as possible. We are in a hurry."

Qi Hanyue nodded solemnly and used a special communication device to contact people back home.

Su Yuan immediately set off for the Divine Craftsman Palace, hoping that the Mysterious Art Heavenly Lord could help him forge a magical artifact to accelerate the growth of spiritual herbs.

To Su Yuan's surprise, this type of magical artifact did not need to be specially crafted, because Xuan Yi University already had a sufficient stock of such artifacts.

Because the study of spiritual plants is also one of the mainstream majors at Xuan Yi University.

The prized possession of the Spirit Plant Academy is a Nascent Soul-level magic weapon called the 'Withering and Flourishing Shuttle,' a top-tier magic weapon that combines the Dao of Wood and the Dao of Time.

When the spiritual field is rich in nutrients, this magic weapon can greatly increase the growth rate of spiritual plants and herbs, with a maximum increase of up to one hundred times.

It's comparable to the cheat abilities of some protagonists in farming-themed novels.

Given Su Yuan's current status, there would naturally be no obstacle to borrowing the Withering and Flourishing Shuttle from the Spirit Plant System.

However, after borrowing this treasure, Xuan Yi Tianjun still asked Su Yuan curiously what he intended to do with it.

Su Yuan could only make up an excuse about "decorating the new manor with greenery" to get by.

It wasn't that he didn't trust the Nascent Soul Heavenly Lords, but the effects of the Demon Dream Grass were somewhat difficult to describe, and Su Yuan was worried about causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

With the help of the Withered and Flourishing Shuttle, a large batch of Dream Grass seeds were also sent to Hu Hai Manor via the emergency teleportation array.

In front of a manor's own ten acres of spiritual fields.

Su Yuan finely ground the three Limitless Pills into powder, sprinkled them evenly on the mixture, and planted three thousand Dream Grass seedlings.

Immediately afterwards, Su Yuan asked the gardener to use the Spirit Rain Technique to irrigate the spirit field, and then activated the top-level agricultural spirit gathering array to gather spiritual power for the spirit field.

After completing the operation and confirming that the spiritual field was well-nourished, Su Yuan immediately activated the Withering and Flourishing Shuttle.

This shuttle, resembling a withered tree and only the size of a normal person's forearm, flew into the air under Su Yuan's control, weaving through the spirit field like a weaver.

The seedlings of the Demon Dream Grass were thus given a hundredfold increase in growth rate, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Noyi, is there any new information regarding the location of the vanguard of the Yu Xuan Demon Clan?"

While operating the Shuttle of Withering and Flourishing, Su Yuan asked the blue-haired girl who was watching.

Chen Nuoyi nodded:
"Master and Mistress have roughly located the enemy's position."

"They are not moving very fast, and it will probably take them another two weeks to reach our warning range."

Su Yuan nodded slightly.

Judging from the speed of their advance, the Yu Xuan Demon Clan is not exactly marching at full speed, which is good, as it buys them more time.

He must cultivate enough Spirit Herb-grade Dream Grass within half a month.

Thinking about it this way, I guess I've finally found something I should be doing.

However, this period has been tough on Qi Hanyue, as she has to be supplied with Wuji Pills frequently, and she will likely be in a state of kidney deficiency for the next two weeks.

We need to get her some goji berries, ginseng, or other herbs that nourish yin and tonify the kidneys to help her recover.

The week flew by.

On this day, the tranquil Hu Hai Manor welcomed a guest.

"Heavenly Hunting Saintess? Are you here to see Su Yuan?" Wu Ziying asked in surprise when she saw the holy girl with wings on her back who had come to visit.

Zhu Tianqing explained:

"I'm here to see the Vice Sect Leader. Some of the military demon beasts of the Myriad Beasts Demon Sect have been acting unruly lately, and we need her to use her Dragon Might to subdue them."

After a pause, she continued:

"But since I'm already here, I should at least greet the leader."

"Su Yuan and Nuoyi should be in the herb field. Please follow me."

Wu Ziying led Zhu Tianqing to the herb field in the manor.

As soon as she approached the herb field, Zhu Tianqing's nose twitched, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her gaze unconsciously fell upon the lush greenery within.

Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi, and Qi Hanyue were tending to these unknown medicinal herbs.

Upon noticing Zhu Tianqing's arrival, the three of them emerged from the medicinal herb field.

"Holy Maiden, welcome to my Hu Hai Manor."

Su Yuan patted the dirt off his hands and said with a smile.

Zhu Tianqing nodded to Su Yuan and explained her purpose.

"Okay, then I'll go with you now."

Chen Nuoyi said very readily.

"Thank you very much."

As Zhu Tianqing spoke, her gaze involuntarily drifted towards the medicinal herb field. Unable to contain her emotions, she asked:

"Excuse me, what are these medicinal herbs?"

Just as Su Yuan was about to give a casual reply, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he took three steps forward in two, grabbed Zhu Tianqing's hand and said.

"I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it, but the Beast University is the stronghold of the demon race on Blue Star!"

"If you want to conduct drug efficacy tests, the demons at the University of Ten Thousand Beasts are the most suitable. Tian Qing, you must help me with this."

As he spoke, Su Yuan explained the effects of the Dream Grass in detail, and then immediately cut a hundred Dream Grass plants and handed them to her.

The Dream Grass is like chives; as long as the roots are still there, the stems and leaves will quickly grow back, so there's no need to worry about too much damage during experiments.

Zhu Tianqing, who was holding a bundle of grass, was a little dazed until Chen Nuoyi urged her to come back to her senses.

"Wait...wait a minute."

For some reason, a faint blush rose on Zhu Tianqing's pretty face. She spoke with a mixture of eagerness and shyness:

"I need to use the restroom first. Where is the bathroom in your house, Master?"

Do Golden Core cultivators even need to relieve themselves? How much water would they have to drink for that?

A question mark popped into Su Yuan's mind, but he didn't think much of it and directly pointed out the way for Zhu Tianqing.

The holy half-demon saintess, clutching the Dream Grass, hurriedly left everyone's sight.

"Zhu Tianqing seems a little strange."

Qi Hanyue looked thoughtful.

If she could sense that something was wrong, then others naturally noticed the problem as well.

Just then, Chen Nuoyi suddenly realized something and looked nervously at Su Yuan:

"Su... Su Yuan, the Demon Dream Grass is so potent for demons, but what about for beings with demon blood?"

Su Yuan: "..."

Yeah, can half-demons be affected by the Dream Grass?
The un-evolved Youmu Grass certainly wouldn't have this effect, but after Youmu Grass consumes Wuji, who knows if it might evolve into some strange and unusual effects.

Chen Nuoyi, who possesses the bloodline of the Dragon King, is unaffected because her bloodline originates from the Purple-Gold Dragon Lord, making her incomparably noble.

However, the demon blood flowing through Zhu Tianqing's body was clearly inferior to that of the Dragon King.

Combined with the scene of Zhu Tianqing sneaking away after sending everyone away, and leaving with Hongxia, her breathing rapid, a terrifying image surfaced in everyone's minds.

"not good!"

Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi spoke in unison! They immediately chased after Zhu Tianqing in the direction she had left.

Only Qi Hanyue and Wu Ziying, who were still somewhat confused, remained on the spot.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

When Su Yuan saw Zhu Tianqing again, the Heavenly Hunting Saintess had already collapsed in a small grove of trees, surrounded by scattered Dreamweed.

This holy half-demon saintess was like Hakimi who had taken catnip, constantly rubbing her body against it, her exquisite figure rolling around on the ground like a caterpillar.

Her once bright and aloof eyes became unfocused, and she held a handful of Dream Grass in her hand, bringing it to her nose and inhaling it in a whirlwind. Her expression was one of uncontrollable ecstasy, and the medicine smeared all over her face, making her look utterly disheveled.

Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi: "..."

No, can we still keep this saintess?

If it's this potent against half-demons, its effects on full-fledged demons must be off the charts!

"Su Yuan."

After a long silence, Chen Nuoyi placed her hand on Su Yuan's shoulder and said earnestly:
"Burn down the field of the Demon Dream Grass."

"If you use this thing on the battlefield, you'll definitely be treated as a top-level war criminal and sent to the execution platform!"
