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

Chapter 562 Another Battle Against the Boundless Tribulation Venerable!

"How could we possibly know anything about the Boundless Calamity Venerable..."

The old man's voice trembled with genuine fear; he could clearly sense Su Yuan's murderous intent towards him.

"A bunch of useless trash. It seems you all surrendered back then, otherwise how come you couldn't even get a single piece of information?"

Su Yuan shook his head disdainfully.

Upon hearing this, the ten Nascent Soul cultivators blushed with embarrassment, yet they were unable to refute it.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of them, Su Yuan stopped talking and prepared to drain these useless people dry before killing them along with the previous prisoners.

Upon sensing the surging crimson divine power emanating from Su Yuan, the old man exclaimed in horror:
"Young friend Su, Lord Shiyuan, please do not make a move."

"We are willing to surrender! We are willing to serve under your forces like slaves. We want nothing else but to ask that the Heavenly Lord spare our lives!"

Su Yuan said calmly:
"Sorry, there's no place for you bunch of good-for-nothings on my warship."

As they spoke, the power of the Crown of Corruption was suddenly unleashed.

The power of the ten veteran Nascent Soul cultivators, all at least at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage, plummeted at a visible rate.

The power Su Yuan absorbed from them was not kept by him, but was directly transferred to his companions, including the Ten Heavenly Sovereigns of Blue Star, Wuluo Heavenly Sovereign, Guiyuan, and Zijin Dragon Sovereign.

Among these people, some had not yet reached their peak cultivation level, while others had experienced a significant drop in strength. However, after receiving the cultivation infusion from ten veteran Nascent Soul cultivators, their strength all surged.

In particular, the Purple-Gold Dragon Lord, relying on the power of flesh and blood extracted from the Crown of Corruption, quickly restored his already severely damaged body to 70% of its peak level.

Previously, the Purple-Gold Dragon Lord had transferred his own Great Dao to Chen Nuoyi, so Su Yuan specially selected two Great Daos suitable for him and gave them to her as compensation.

Besides the Purple-Gold Dragon Lord, Su Yuan also showed obvious favoritism towards friends and elders such as Gui Yuan, Qi Anong, Su Youli, An Xingran, and Chu Lanxi, giving them all the best things first.

Neither the Nascent Soul cultivators from Blue Star who did not receive preferential treatment nor the Nascent Soul cultivators from other worlds had any objections or dissatisfaction with this.

After all, Su Yuan personally defeated the last ten enemy Nascent Soul cultivators, and they didn't contribute any effort, so there's no question of whether the spoils were distributed equally.

If you really have to say something, they all only have one opinion.

"Su Yuan, why did you share your power with us? The enemy you're facing next is so strong, you should concentrate more of your power."

Feeling his cultivation level had greatly increased, Wu Luo Tianjun said angrily.

Su Yuan's actions gave her a strong sense of unease, as if the other party was dividing up the inheritance in advance.

Su Yuan smiled and said:
“Senior Su, I have already reached my limit. Absorbing more of this power would only be a waste.”

Upon hearing this, all the Nascent Soul Heavenly Lords present fell silent.

Has it reached the top...?

This means that even if they were willing to contribute their cultivation and everything they had, they wouldn't be able to help Su Yuan in the slightest.

This made many people present feel guilty.

Su Yuan didn't notice everyone's emotions. He simply waved his hand and took out the enemy Nascent Soul cultivators who had already been drained of their energy.

Sixty emaciated prisoners were lined up in front of Su Yuan.

Each of them is a legendary figure in the world of cultivation, and each has experienced a magnificent and turbulent life.

Some of them perished for resisting the Boundless Calamity Lord and were made into the Shadow of the Abyss; some chose to submit to the Boundless Calamity Lord's despairing power; and some, after being forced to surrender, gradually lost themselves in the subtle corruption of the Boundless Calamity Lord.

Facing the sixty prisoners, Su Yuan spoke in a deep voice, his tone devoid of mockery, only firmness: "Gentlemen, many of you may have forgotten your initial aspirations, forgotten the heart that yearned for freedom."

"But at least I haven't forgotten yet, so I will carry on your legacy and become the next rebel."

"Please, seniors... embark on your journey."

As soon as he finished speaking, amidst a chorus of gazes—some angry, some desperate, some complex, and some relieved—Su Yuan unleashed the Demonic Thunder.

The purplish-black lightning struck, reducing the bodies of all sixty Nascent Soul cultivators to dust.

The valuable magical treasures and immortal artifacts on their bodies had already been taken and distributed to the Nascent Soul cultivators of the alliance.

Su Yuan did not take a single penny of those legacies, because the immortal treasures were of no use in the battle against the Boundless Calamity Venerable.

Not only that, Su Yuan also handed over all the magical treasures, such as the Moon-Catching Pearl, the Myriad Soul Banner, the Crimson Yuan Sword, and the Mysterious Strange Sword, to Wuluo Tianjun, asking her to take them away for him.

"Has the Boundless Lord of Calamities... made any move?"

Putting away Su Yuan's personal magical artifacts and items, Wu Luo Tianjun gazed at the pitch-black universe and murmured a question.

Su Yuan glanced at the star map showing the distribution of Nascent Soul cultivators and nodded, saying:
"coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying being, whose height was unknown and whose torso could only be seen in part by everyone, appeared out of thin air.

"That is... the true form of the Boundless Calamity Venerable?"

Gazing at the enormous, boundless figure clad in a gray Taoist robe, the Alliance Nascent Soul cultivators, who had never seen the true form of the Boundless Calamity Venerable, were plunged into profound shock.

They had considered that the final boss who would dominate the entire cultivation world would be very powerful.

But no matter how powerful he is, he's still just a Nascent Soul cultivator, at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, on par with that faceless man.

Therefore, most people believe that the Immeasurable One is at most two or three times stronger than the Faceless Man.

But now that they've met the person in question, they immediately realize that things aren't so simple.

Two or three times stronger?
Don't make the Boundless Kalpa Venerable laugh.

Even if the Faceless Man himself came and exerted all his strength, he could probably only contend with one of the main body's palms, and might not even be able to defeat it. He would be suppressed by one hand in a few moves, just like Sun Wukong.

Can we really defeat such a powerful enemy?
This question arose in everyone's mind.

This was the second time Su Yuan had seen the true form of the Boundless Calamity Venerable, so he wasn't too flustered.

"Old Deng, we meet again."

Su Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, revealing a sunny and cheerful smile.

The heavy voice of the Boundless Calamity Venerable slowly resounded, and the sound waves directly pushed away hundreds of stars around him.

"Su Yuan, you did a terrible job."

“My sixty subordinates could have been exploited in a better way, and they could have been made to generate greater value, but you ended up throwing them all away.”

"How can someone like you, who doesn't know how to respect and utilize resources, possibly govern the universe, no matter how powerful you become?"

Su Yuan shrugged and said:
"Perhaps you are right, but why should I insist on governing it?"

"Actually, I only have one wish, which is to become an immortal. Boundless old man, you're blocking my way!"
