I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 50 The Mysteries of Talismans (Third Update, Seeking Votes and Follow-Up)
Wang Chuyun initially thought she was just overthinking things, but after the meeting, she noticed that Chen Yu was very enthusiastic towards all the representatives, but kept a certain distance from her. She was certain that Chen Yu did have a problem with her.

Although she wasn't sure whether it was because she had looked through the other person's speech or because her own scent had upset the other person, Wang Chuyun didn't want to leave the question unresolved.

So, she carefully followed Chen Yu, and when she found an opportunity for him to be alone, she immediately grabbed him and said earnestly, "Chen, I don't know what made you unhappy, so I apologize in advance. But I really want to get along with you, after all, I really like the dream you had."

"Wang, classmate..."

"Please say."

"This is the men's restroom."

"I know." Wang Chuyun nodded, but still said nonchalantly, "But don't worry, I put up a sign at the door saying it's under repair."

"This isn't about whether there's a notice or not! Why did you follow me into the men's restroom?! I never imagined that a story from a doujinshi could happen to me!"

"In my opinion, getting along well with you is more important than worldly ethics and morality."

I think the latter is more important!

At that moment, Chen Yu felt that there was definitely something wrong with the person in front of him.

These days, can't you cultivate immortality without going crazy?
Noticing the surprise in Chen Yu's eyes, Wang Chuyun took a step back, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Did I do something wrong again?"

"You should ask yourself what you did right."

"...Sorry, I'll wait for you at the door."

After finally coming out, Chen Yu washed his hands and saw Wang Chuyun looking out the window at the door. Her slender figure looked as transparent as crystal and as fragile as a bubble.

Although he knew the other person was an oddball, Chen Yu had to admit that the other person's appearance was definitely the best he had ever seen.

Hearing Chen Yu's footsteps, Wang Chuyun breathed a sigh of relief and then said to Chen Yu, "I thought you were going to jump out the window and run away."

"That's not the case."

"I'm sorry, ever since I was targeted by the evil god, I've never been able to maintain a proper distance in my interactions with people."

"Evil God?"

"Yes, the evil god residing in my body can give me benefits in return for any sacrifices I make. They really like cultivators with potential, and these cultivators are also their favorite hosts. It's usually fine, but once I encounter someone I admire or like, I can't control the distance between us, so I often do some bad things. I was better with people of the same sex before, but this is the first time I've acted like this with someone of the opposite sex."

"I see."

Wang Chuyun gave a polite yet melancholic smile: "This is part of my contract with the evil god, so I've always kept a certain distance from others. However, I really liked your dream, so I hope I can explain it to you clearly. In any case, I don't want you to hate me. As I said before, if I've done anything wrong, I hope you can forgive me."

Chen Yu thought for a moment, then sighed: "...Never mind, it's already like this. I forgive you."

"Huh, that's great."

Clutching her chest, Wang Chuyun let out a long breath, feeling much better.

She gave Chen Yu a friendly hug and whispered in his ear, "Thank you. Please come visit us at Cultural High School sometime. Our library is very large. You can sleep if you get tired of reading, no problem."

"Oh."

"See you later then."

With a wave, Wang Chuyun left the place with light steps, waving goodbye from outside before finally departing.

As he watched the other person leave, Chen Yu's mind was filled with thoughts of the evil god.

However, before he could think about it further, he felt increasingly sleepy.

He yawned, knowing this was a sign that his internal energy was about to activate, so he forced himself to stay awake and went back to his dormitory. He fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

When he woke up, he found himself in his own creation, "Quiz Showdown".

Looking around at the scene, he shrugged and said, "As expected, I've fallen into my own dream again."

There was no pain in this dream; being killed by the female ghost was just that—being killed. There was no real suffering.

Moreover, this dream is just about doing homework; once you finish it all, you can leave, so it shouldn't be a problem. Sitting on the ground, Chen Yu was about to properly experience the content of this dream when he noticed that the sky was full of stars.

After staring at them intently for a while, he couldn't help but say, "There are so many stars!"

He then realized that it wasn't a star.

Instead, they are light spots.

Countless points of light fell from the sky, and beneath each point of light was a little female ghost.

They were enthusiastic, and they were cruel.

They wore only a little bit of cloth and had smiles on their faces that were repulsive to others.

Their lewd expressions, affected movements, and constant spouting of chilling lines made even a cultured person like Chen Yu break out in a cold sweat.

The little female ghost who landed threw the light in her hand at Chen Yu, forcibly putting him into a quiz mode, and then let out a strange laugh:

"Big brother, you can't even answer this kind of question, can you? Did you buy your grades?"

"No matter how hard you try, it's still a constant; if you differentiate it, it will become zero."

"Is this not enough? There are only a few hundred questions. You don't even have the ability to make people feel satisfied. What a coward."

"Can't win? Then burn your mana, but burning it still makes you a coward."

It's one thing to torment others with lines, but it's quite another to be tormented by the lines you wrote yourself.

The boomerangs that had hit him earlier kept returning, prompting Chen Yu to start writing furiously, his mind filled with only one thought:
I'm going to kill all these little devils!
Two hundred thousand units of magical power were burned here, and the spiritual root in his body was fully released. At this moment, Chen Yu felt that his potential had been fully unlocked, his inspiration exploded, and he immediately entered an extremely mysterious state.

He quickly finished the questions, and the question bank, which consisted of thousands of books, was frantically imprinted into his mind, becoming part of his knowledge reserve.

However, this is not enough.

Knowing something doesn't mean you can use it. He drew out the connections between different pieces of knowledge, leading him to follow the lines of knowledge downwards and uncover the mysteries hidden beneath.

He saw the sky burning, the sea boiling, and tens of thousands of Ma Daqiangs cheering and shouting in the clouds: "Godfather, keep digging, there is treasure there!"

Continuing downwards, knowledge of talismans appeared before him. Someone had hidden the application of talismans underneath, but now he unearthed it with his surging magical power and began to absorb and learn it frantically.

He frantically deconstructed, learned from, absorbed, and transformed the sixty-four talismans. A flood of new knowledge about talismans surged into his mind, allowing him to see the infinite possibilities within them.

continue!

Dig!

Then push the limits!

He heard a deafening roar from heaven and earth. He had finally broken through the mysteries at the bottom of the talisman and unearthed the secrets left by his predecessors, which flowed into his heart like a surging torrent.

Haha! I've got it!

By the time Chen Yu regained consciousness, it was already evening.

The bedding was soaked with sweat, and my body felt sticky and uncomfortable, but I felt unusually calm.

His five senses became unusually sharp; he could even hear the breathing next door and see the leaves swaying in the darkness in the distance.

Experiencing his newfound senses, Chen Yu knew without even opening his phone that his cultivation level had improved.

I'm now at the third level of Qi Refining.

However, he had something more important to do than improve his cultivation level.

He spread his hands and silently recited the incantation for the talisman. Then he saw several talismans activated by magic power, transforming into a glowing orb in the darkness.

He discovered the secret of the talismans.
