Chapter 28: Bringing the System Along to Soar
Cloudsky Peak.
After leaving Heaven’s Gate Peak, Liu Muyu quietly found a secluded corner, set up several layers of formations, and then took out a pearl.
Before long, a figure appeared on the surface of the pearl.
Seeing the image within, Liu Muyu imdiately greeted him respectfully and reported what she had done.
“Elder Ding, the mission has been completed. I’ve already infused the Filthy Resentful Aura from the Soul-Corrupting Banner into Li Tianwei’s cave residence.”
“I only left after personally seeing him begin cultivating.”
Hearing Liu Muyu’s words, Elder Ding inside the pearl nodded with satisfaction.
“Muyu, you’ve done well. In a few days, the Fortune-Creating Pill will be delivered to you.”
At the ntion of the Fortune-Creating Pill, Liu Muyu swallowed hard, her face revealing visible excitent. It was obvious that this reward was anything but ordinary.
“Many thanks, Elder Ding. I shall devote myself wholly to the Sacred Land of Baiyuan!”
Liu Muyu appeared deeply moved, as though tears might spill at any mont.
“In a few days, the Sacred Land of Baiyuan will visit the Sacred Land of Lingxu for an exchange of cultivation insights. To ensure absolute success, we’ve arranged for soone to spar with Li Tianwei. Under the influence of the Filthy Resentful Aura, he will surely be defeated. That way, our Sacred Land of Baiyuan’s prodigy will rise by stepping on him.”
Elder Ding stroked his beard as he spoke.
“Elder Ding, I’ll fully cooperate.”
“In that case, nothing can go wrong.”
Liu Muyu nodded vigorously at his words.
“All right, go about your own business then.”
Soon, Elder Ding’s image faded from the pearl.
Watching him disappear, Liu Muyu’s thoughts were already turning toward the mont she would obtain the Fortune-Creating Pill—when she could consu it and advance from early Golden Core stage to mid-stage.
“Hahaha, the risk is high, but the rewards are rich!”
——
Heaven’s Gate Peak.
Outside the cultivation cave, a figure was suspended slightly above the ground.
The spiritual energy in the air continuously surged toward him.
Soon, a decaying aura—one of the end of all things—emanated from his body.
With a gentle wave of his hand, a surge of spiritual power burst forth, and his fingers swiftly ford a hand seal before pointing forward.
“Heaven’s Descent Art.”
As his movents and words fell,
Boom—
Heaven and earth’s spiritual energy roiled violently.
A brutal force containing traces of annihilating energy materialized out of thin air.
A stream of light streaked across the sky; space twisted, waves rippled, and a vortex spread outward.
At the spot where his finger pointed, darkness distorted as a decayed aura enveloped everything.
The ground cracked, grass withered, and in an instant, it was as though sothing had erased that entire section of the world—it was simply gone.
“Not bad.”
Li Tianwei looked at the deathly area that had been obliterated and nodded with satisfaction.
These days, after comprehending two kinds of Dao Intent, Li Tianwei had integrated them into his spiritual energy and cultivated several techniques that harmonized with death and resentnt.
By now, he had thoroughly stabilized his Foundation Establishnt Realm.
With these spells in hand, he was no longer a cultivator with empty cultivation but no ans of attack.
Moreover, with the Undying Body of the Sacrificial Dao, he could, if he wished, simultaneously activate several explosive techniques, increasing his power by over tenfold without issue.
By his own estimate, the combination of explosive arts increasing his strength more than tenfold, together with the spiritual energy ford by his Three Thousand Converging-Heaven Intentions—which had already produced two Dao Intents—made him several tis stronger than others of the sa level. Rounding it roughly, he had at least twenty tis the combat strength of an ordinary cultivator.
Of course, this was not sothing he intended to flaunt. Best to keep his true strength hidden.
Thinking so, Li Tianwei withdrew his power.
Now that the Three Thousand Converging-Heaven Intentions had birthed two Intents, the Dao Intent itself continuously operated, strengthening him without pause.
During these days, Li Tianwei had attempted to comprehend more Dao Intents but found himself unable to sense anything.
It felt as if the previous two comprehensions had been an illusion.
He tried to rediscover that mont of epiphany but couldn’t grasp the sa feeling again, as though those sorrowful lingering shadows had been fake.
He found it understandable—after all, enlightennt was not sothing that could exist indefinitely.
Still, Li Tianwei knew he was simply being too hasty—haste makes waste.
When he had realized the Dao Intents of Death and Resentnt, he had resonated with the remnant visions ford by the accumulated beliefs and sorrows of heaven and all beings.
Now that he had completed his own cultivation enhancent, Li Tianwei had other plans in mind.
After all, since he had succeeded in cultivation, wasn’t it ti to give that useless System of his a hand?
“System, system, do you copy?”
At last, Li Tianwei rembered the System lingering in his mind.
Within his consciousness, the System was stunned—Li Tianwei had actually taken the initiative to contact it!
For a mont, it even wondered if it was experiencing auditory hallucinations—or perhaps Li Tianwei had finally co to his senses and repented.
【Host, host, the System is here. What do you require…】
Halfway through, the System was disgusted by its own bootlicking tone and silently cursed itself.
【Pah, pah, pah! I’m not like that Book Spirit!】
【I’m a System. I must remain cold and aloof—I can’t be PUA’d!】
Thinking so, the System regained its composure. It had to, after all. Its last two hosts had both been too reckless—
—and had ended up dead, dragging entire worlds to ruin with them.
Now on its third binding, this was its final chance. Yet it hadn’t expected Li Tianwei to be even more reckless than the previous two.
After two failed worlds, the System had learned to be cautious—steady and prudent.
【Has the host finally co to his senses? A False Spiritual Root isn’t sothing that can’t be changed.】
Thus, the System sent out its voice transmission once more.
Li Tianwei finally heard the familiar tone of the System—it felt the sa as ever.
“No, that’s not it. I just want to tell you—your chance is right here. Didn’t you want
to carry you along to soar? Now that I’ve already reached Foundation Establishnt, it’s your turn to show sothing. Your host is this powerful, yet you’re so useless—it’s embarrassing.”
Li Tianwei said this bluntly.
Being insulted yet again, even a data-based being like the System couldn’t help feeling anger.
【Useless? I’m not useless—you are! You’re just a False Spiritual Root!】
The System ranted furiously, though Li Tianwei barely reacted.
A False Spiritual Root? He had never believed that nonsense. He had achieved Hundred-Day Foundation—who had ever heard of a False Spiritual Root doing that?
Clearly, the System’s words carried little sting.
Seeing Li Tianwei’s indifferent attitude, the System imdiately understood his mindset.
Indeed, it currently had no evidence to prove Li Tianwei’s False Spiritual Root.
Once it did, Li Tianwei would surely accept its cautious advice.
Since he wanted to “bring it along to soar,” the System decided to assign him an impossible task—when he failed, doubt would naturally arise.
As for the possibility that Li Tianwei might succeed—the System found that probability very low.
The situation of this world was far too complex to be solved so easily.
In truth, the System’s expectations weren’t high.
It rely wanted Li Tianwei to be more careful.
Being a False Spiritual Root who’d managed to deceive everyone was already lucky enough; to then succeed in Hundred-Day Foundation and even comprehend Dao Intents—that was pure luck.
But luck was fleeting.
Once it ran out, death would surely follow.
Therefore, in the System’s eyes, Li Tianwei needed to be corrected—to beco steady, prudent, and stop pulling all those reckless “main character” moves.
Once again, the System steeled its resolve.
It would assign him a task beyond his capability to teach him a hard lesson—
—to make him realize his own flaws, and to act with restraint and caution.
【Since you wish to bring
along to soar, then allow
to properly introduce the situation of this world.】
Soon, the System transmitted a comprehensive flood of information about the world’s crises directly into Li Tianwei’s mind.
As Li Tianwei absorbed the data, his brows furrowed slightly.
“Extraterrestrial Demons?”
He hadn’t expected the world’s situation to be like this.
On the surface, it was a cultivation world—but secretly, certain sinister entities were constantly eroding the very laws of heaven and earth, seizing the bodies of countless cultivators and taking control of them.
At present, much of the cultivation realm had already been corroded.
These demons were rely waiting for the right opportunity to strike, to unleash chaos and devour all living beings.
