Is the cultivation world now only populated by demonesses?

Chapter 100, page 99: Life is getting better and better.

Su Youwan arrived just as Lu Changyuan's demonic energy was about to erupt completely.

She was also seriously injured; her internal organs felt like broken bottles, churning in pain, so she naturally arrived a step later.

"cough."

The silver-haired girl stood there, stunned.

She seemed to see that sword again.

Different from before.

This time, she saw it exceptionally clearly.

It was a Taoist priest wearing a platinum mask, holding a sword in his hand, looking up at the sky.

The Taoist priest seemed to say something, but Su Youwan could no longer hear it.

But Heaven seemed extremely angry and wanted to send down a tribulation of lightning to punish the Taoist.

The Taoist simply raised his sword, his eyes, the only visible part of his face, were completely still. Su Youwan heard his second sentence clearly.

“I will borrow a thousand years from you, the Supreme One, to suppress the demon of desire for a thousand years. Now I want to ascend to immortality. Whether you agree or not, I am going to ascend to immortality.”

Then the sword that made heaven and earth lose their color came out of the Taoist's hand and cleaved straight into the sky.

The sky was brutally torn apart.

It hurts.

As Su Youwan thought this, the sword seemed to have struck her body, tearing her apart.

Thus, a huge hole appeared in the sky, which was originally like a dome covering the vast wilderness.

That's an amazing person.

Can humans be that powerful?

Su Youwan fell.

More accurately, it is a part of the Heavenly Way that fell and landed on Earth.

The place where it crashed was a dynasty where immortals and mortals coexisted, called the Liuli Dynasty. Upon closer inspection, it was found that it had crashed in the Shangyujing of the Liuli Dynasty.

The scene receded like the tide.

Su Youwan didn't have time to think too much; she was stunned by what she saw.

Before the silver-haired girl was a pair of enormous black demonic wings. These wings, which blotted out the sky, protected Lu Changyuan, making it impossible to see what was inside.

The demonic energy emanating from those flapping demonic wings seemed poised to transform the entire Underworld into a demonic realm.

boom!
Like a pebble dropped into a lake, ripples of demonic energy spread through the air, shattering the space with abandon.

The immense demonic energy quickly impacted Su Youwan.

"cough."

Su Youwan was already seriously injured, and now she fell far away like a kite with a broken string.

"Remember to thank me."

Someone grabbed Su Youwan and stopped her.

Su Youwan asked with difficulty, "How could this happen?"

Mei Zhaozhao continued, "What happened to your birdcage? Your bird rushed into his body, and that's how he ended up like this!"

"My birdcage?" Su Youwan realized at this moment that her emotions had entered Lu Changyuan's body and merged with Lu Changyuan's.

Mei Zhaozhao shook her head: "Let's go quickly. We need to leave immediately. If he becomes completely possessed by demons, neither of us will survive."

She was certain that Lu Changyuan could defeat Xiao Qingfeng, which is why she came back to see if she could do Lu Changyuan a favor.

But now, although Lu Changyuan has indeed defeated Xiao Qingfeng, he has become an even bigger demon.

Su Youwan's expression remained unchanged, and though weak, her tone was firm: "I must save him."

"What are you trying to save? We're all in trouble. If he stirs up even the slightest trouble, we'll both die."

It was also the instant Mei Zhaozhao finished speaking.

Those enormous wings suddenly opened.

The person inside was indeed Lu Changyuan, but he seemed to be nothing more than a lustful demon with Lu Changyuan's face.

Its eyeballs have been reborn, its eyes are blood-red, it has wings on its back, and a red and black heart is exposed on its chest, beating rhythmically.

The entire underworld seemed to tremble violently because of the rhythm of this heartbeat.

Mei Zhaozhao shook her head: "His eyes are bloodshot; he has been corrupted by lust, and even a god could not save him."

There is actually hope.

If someone can use the "Supreme Pure Spirit Forget Immortal Technique" in conjunction with Lu Changyuan's method of exorcising demons, and defeat the lust demon within Lu Changyuan's body, they can probably save Lu Changyuan.

Therefore, in this world, only the past can save the present.

"Oh no, oh no, he's looking at us. I shouldn't have come back."

Mei Zhaozhao's panicked voice rang out. Those scarlet eyes were now fixed intently on the two of them.

"Quiet down," Su Youwan said, the silver-haired girl remaining calm.

To Mei Zhaozhao's surprise, Lu Changyuan did not go berserk and kill the two of them; he simply raised his hand.

Something broke through the wind and transformed into a black light, flying right in front of the two of them.

Mei Zhaozhao looked at Lu Changyuan in disbelief: "He can still maintain his rationality? How is that possible!?"

Su Youwan reached out and blocked the black light.

This is a sundial; a sundial obscures the secrets of heaven, while a moondial traces back to the past.

Lu Changyuan actually disassembled the sundial and sent it over.

His hoarse voice was filled with exhaustion: "I'm fine. Take the sundial and let's go."

Su Youwan cut open her delicate arm: "Drinking my blood can temporarily protect your mind. Let's go to Cihang Palace, and I will ask my master to save you."

Her answer was a gust of wind, and she and Mei Zhaozhao were blown towards the exit by Lu Changyuan.

In the air, Su Youwan witnessed a horrifying scene: Lu Changyuan plunged the remaining sundial into his own body, the crimson blood mixed with black mist, as if he were committing suicide.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are actually several questions that Lu Changyuan has never been able to answer.

What are the scarlet words in the eyes?
If this world isn't a game, then where do the memories of games come from?

Why was he resurrected? What happened before his resurrection?
On that sunny, uneventful morning, as Lu Changyuan washed his face, all he could think about was that he had completed the game, and finally, as he controlled the Chang'an Taoist, he used the Heaven-Slaying Sword to successfully cut a flaw in the Heavenly Dao, thus proving his own path.

After cultivating for thirteen hundred years, he finally ascended to the Jade Light and became an immortal.

But something is clearly wrong.

Because he has been resurrected.

If they've become immortals, how can they possibly be resurrected in the mortal realm?
Therefore, the Taoist priest of Chang'an did not become an immortal.

However, some of my memories are faulty; I've been misled by someone or something.

This is a result that is quite easy to predict.

If he didn't have memory problems, he would never have been able to be resurrected in the mountain village.

However, if we use this as a basis to reverse the process, we can make a reverse deduction.

That began when Lu Changyuan left the village.

I've been being guided all along.

After meeting Qiu Yuehan and then Xia Lianxue, he naturally went to find the Heaven-Mending Pill, then sent Su Wuxiang away, arrived at Miaoyu Palace, killed the Red Phoenix Ancestor, and withstood the Heavenly Tribulation.

When Lu Changyuan lost his last friend Su Wuxiang in Shangyujing, the first crack appeared in his Supreme Forgetfulness.

Then at Miaoyu Palace, Xia Lianxue gave him the Drunken Red Phoenix, and the Supreme Forgetfulness Heart was almost completely shattered.

It has come to this point.

Therefore, Lu Changyuan simply abandoned the "Supreme Pure Spirit Forget Immortal Technique" and used his last trump card to forcibly protect Xia Lianxue.

Everything seemed to have become a staged drama, unfolding perfectly smoothly.

"really interesting."

Think long and far ahead.

From the moment he was reborn, everything he encountered was related to him.

The cultivation world is so vast, how could he possibly encounter only people related to him?

This is such an unbelievable coincidence.

It was as if someone had orchestrated all of this.

Even the opening of the Underworld falls within this category.

Su Youwan could sense the complexity of his thoughts, so how could Lu Changyuan not?
Despite knowing something was wrong, Lu Changyuan still came to the Underworld, to this place where life and death hung in the balance, because the Underworld was also his home turf, and it was better for something to happen here than elsewhere.

Moreover, he wanted to see who was behind all this elaborate drama.

In fact, there are not many people in the world who are capable of doing this; you could say they are only a handful.

Lu Changyuan already had some suspicions.

Now that he is possessed by lust, the mastermind behind him is now clearly visible.

"I've managed to have the lust demon scheme against me for hundreds of years, so I guess I'm doing pretty well now. What's the point of this game, giving me these illusory memories?"

Lu Changyuan, his eyes bloodshot, grinned, his tone utterly sarcastic: "When I realize this world isn't a game, will my Path of Ruthlessness shatter? Why bother with such roundabout schemes against me? How petty. When I left the mountain village, I never intended to cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness again."

When the Red Phoenix Ancestor suppressed the Painting Demon, he himself became half a Painting Demon.

The Taoist priest of Chang'an suppressed the lust demon, which was several times stronger than the painting demon, for a thousand years, and was able to remain completely untouched?
The cultivator that the Desire Demon knew best and hated most was him.

Now, Lu Changyuan was unprecedentedly weak, and without the protection of the "Supreme Pure Spirit Forget Immortal Technique," the lust demon quietly descended.
