Exhaling a long breath, Mu Rong Lin opened his eyes in satisfaction at his spiritual sea.

The speciality of the Origin Realm was the existence of divine senses, and the peak of the Origin Realm was essentially the formation of one’s primordial soul, which would no longer be just a bundle of light. In the next realm, the Manifestation Realm, was a cultivation that not just anyone could reach.

Manifestation required the absorption of a mortal form.

Souls and mortal forms were different. Souls were the essence consisting of the personality and mories of a being, and its mortal form was the essence of its physical body. Upon the death of a creature made from heaven and earth, its soul would return to the cycle of reincarnation, but its mortal form would most likely be left behind within its flesh for up to tens of thousands of years.

Mortal forms could be from demonic creatures, humans or even phantoms. And as long as it wasn’t their own, mortal forms could be refined into a Manifestation form.

There were Manifestation Realm Experts that refined a Frost Wvyern’s mortal form, thus gaining the ability to transform into a Frost Wvveryn that could soar in the skies and freeze areas of a thousand ters.

There were Manifestation Realm experts that refined the mortal forms of ancient warriors, capable of transforming into ancient warriors that towered over ten ters and wielded giant hatchets.

There were Manifestation Realm experts that refined the mortal forms of spectres, turning to spectres that could place curses within a thousand Li and wander the heavens and earth as spirits.

In conclusion, the mortal form of a cultivated being could be refined into one’s Manifestation form, but there were also risks involved. If they were incapable of withstanding the backlash of the refinent process, they would either permanently beco a lifeform of the moral form, or explode and die.

Mu Rong Lin had high requirents for the moral form he wanted to refine, but it was a pity that none of his rewards was related to moral forms, it seed like he could only rely on the next protagonist.

He smiled as he withdrew his aura.

“Use the character legacy card.”

“Ding! The character legacy card was successfully used! Congratulations to master for obtaining Fang Ying Kan’s legacy!”

The Assassinating Blood Sword yong master, Fang Ying Kan, who ‘hid swords in his sleeves, smiled at the sight of blood and was as unpredictable as a thunderstorm’ — a character from Heroes. One of the great experts of the sixth year of the late Northern Song Dynasty. Given the title of ‘Marquis of Martial Technique’ by the imperial court, he was also the leader of the ‘Bridge group’.

A scheming man wise beyond his young age, he had an angel-like appearance with the heart and mind of a devil. He was strategic and knew how to hide his nature, choosing to put on the facade of an innocent, likeable gentleman.

The inheritable legacy:

Cultivation thod: 《Mountainous Scripture》, 《Art of Endurance》

Skills: 《Blood River God Sword》, 《Bloody River God Finger》, 《Night Assassination》, 《Heart-Hurting Arrow》

It was actually Fang Ying Kan!

The character Fang Ying Kan of Mister Wen!

Mu Rong Lin was amazed, not knowing what to say.

As a Wuxia fan, he had naturally reread Wen Rui An’s novels multiple tis, and his peculiar and protagonist-worthy characters had captivated him. Despite not being one of the most popular characters, Fang Ying Kan was definitely the most mysterious.

Even the Bridge group’s other leader, Mi You Qiao, didn’t know if he was aiding Fang Ying Kan, or being led by the nose by him.

He had actually gotten Fang Ying Kan’s legacy.

“Quick! I want to inherit!” Mu Rong Lin couldn’t contain himself.

In an instant, a wave of mories surged into Mu Rong Lin’s mind, filled with cultivation thods, scriptures and cultivation. It didn’t take long for Mu Rong Lin to absorb the mories as his bloody aura beca more refined.

Fang Ying Kan had cultivated his father’s 《Blood River God Sword》first, then he went on to create 《Bloody River God Finger》, and obtained the Golden Man scripture, 《Night Assassination》and the Three Great Martial Techniques of the thirteenth Origin restrictions. As a result, he cultivated the blood attribute first, which was compatible with the bloodiness within Mu Rong Lin. It did not lower his strength, and instead raised the quality of his strength.

And 《Lifelessness Law》absorbtion of the compatible 《Mountainous Scrupture》had successfully raised it to the peak of Sky Reaching, only inches away from promoting to the next level.

“Anti, check the system nu.” Mu Rong Lin spoke.

Undefeatable Villan SystemOwner: Mu Rong Lin

Villan score: 150

Age: 19

Cultivation: Peak of the Origin realm

Innate talent: Bloody Poisonous Insect Acupoint, Little villain halo

Cultivation thod: 《Bloody Heaven Art》

Skills: 《Blood River God Sword》, 《Bloody River God Finger》, 《Night Assassination》, 《Heart-Hurting Arrow》……

Equipnt: God Sword · Bloody River

Familiar spirit: Bloody Poisonous Insect

Inventory: 《Must-read Villain Instruction Manual》, a Fragnt of ‘Great villain halo’, Blessed Enigma Cauldron, Mysterious map, 13 servants (Unsummoned).

Most of the spiritual skill books that he had absorbed in the Athenaeum were only at an elentary mastery, and the spiritual skills he was familiar with didn’t even amount to twenty.

However, the system window now had two additional categories, and the “God Sword · Bloody River” was currently stored in the system window, ready to be taken out at any ti. However, as an artifact only at the peak of the Earth level, and due to the fact that Mu Rong Lin did not train in sword arts, taking it out would be aningless.

There were not a lot of items in his inventory, but the “Mysterious map” was still unidentified, without a description given by the system, he didn’t know what to do with it.

“Anti, this servant summons, how do I summon them?”

“If master thinks of it, they will appear at master’s side, but you won’t be able to recall them back into the system.”

“What about their strength? How strong are they?”

“The three fierce operators are at the ninth layer of the Origin realm, the ‘Eight Great Butcher Kings’ are at the fifth layer of the manifestation realm, and the two bodyguards, ‘Flowering Steel Trees’ are at the ninth layer of the Manifestation Realm.”

“That high? Aren’t they people from a Wuxia world?”

“It is determined by the system, the strength of a character from a Wuxia world is defined by their inner strength and their will, which is then adjusted accordingly. For example, this world’s Manifestation Realm required the absorption of a mortal form, and the two ‘Flowering Steel Trees’ who do not have a manifestation form are modified by the system to be in possession of the ‘Flowering Steel Tree’ mortal form.”

That was how the two of them was considered to be an expert of the Manifestation Realm. And with that, he was able to greatly increase the overall strength of his subordinates, which was greatly beneficial to him.

“Anti, open the system shop.” Mu Rong Lin looked at his 150 villain value and felt that he could now take a look at the items in the shop.

There were cultivation thods, spiritual skills, spiritual weapons, artifacts, arrays, talismans, familiar spirits……

But, the system shop only had items of this world, and Mu Rong Lin couldn’t find the 《Northen Profound Martial Technique》from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

“Master, the system shop will only sell items of this world, and not the items from the novels and comics of your original world. Do not continue with ceaseless thoughts.”

“Is that so?” Mu Rong Lin rubbed his chin, this wasn’t unreasonable, and this world’s uniquity would be lost if items of other worlds were mixed in.

And thinking about it, One Piece’s devil fruit and the Force Neutralising Lightsaber from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils were indeed too much of a violation.

But there was really quite a bit of items in this world.

From items such as spiritual pills to even an entire planet could be bought in the shop, and all kinds of items were categorised into an unending list. There were so many options that there were over tens of thousands of different kinds of Earth level blood attributed spiritual pills alone, each with its own effects and ingredients.

“Can’t I search for items to locate protagonists?” Mu Rong Lin was puzzled, “I can only look for them myself?”

“Yes.”

“Interesting.” Mu Rong Lin grinned, “I hope more protagonists show up. If not, I won’t have enough villain score to strengthen myself!”

Mu Rong Lin was at the peak of the Origin Realm and needed a suitable mortal form, he wasn’t willing to look around, as he didn’t believe that a single mortal form in Xia would be worthy of him. Currently, he had two options, one was to steal from a protagonist’s serendipity since a protagonist’s mortal form wouldn’t be ordinary, or he could purchase one from the system shop, but the only ones that he could accept required at least 200 villain value.

Fallen angel’s mortal form: 300 villain value

Bloody sea Buddha’s mortal form: 350 villain value

Sky-devouring demon’s mortal form: 300 villain value

Looking at the expensive mortal forms, Mu Rong Lin felt that there weren’t enough protagonists to go around.

“What a pity, I’ll check back after taking care of the next protagonist. There isn’t enough ti left, and those brothers of mine won’t wait a few years for . Heh, I can’t wait to see their expressions when they see .”

“Hm, these clothes are pretty good.” Mu Rong Lin recalled the servants and the carriages in his mory, that was the look of a villain.

“Tch tch tch, what a pity.” Circulating his spiritual power, Mu Rong Lin decided to rest early and walked over to his bed.

Within his residence, his servants were still cleaning up the corpses in his study and his courtyard. None of them was surprised and said a few words in pity as they forgot about the three people who had just died.

And on the morning of the next day, they continued to carry out their duties as usual.
