Am I not a nascent saint demon cultivator?

元国

Nestled in the mountains and forests.

Xu Yun was dressed in a green robe, with a tall and straight figure, and his handsome face was full of sorrow and sighs.

"Sigh, all I wanted was to be a good person, why are you forcing me?"

Xu Yun is a transmigrator who, after some exploration, discovers that he has arrived in a world of cultivation, and is extremely excited.

He also knew that the cultivators in this place could burn mountains and boil seas, pluck stars and scoop the moon, and even have the hope of achieving immortality, which naturally made him yearn for it.

Furthermore, as a time traveler, he naturally had a cheat code with him, but it made him feel somewhat troubled.

Thinking of this, he had a sudden thought, and a light screen appeared before his eyes that only he could see.

[A new saint every day, each with its own unique charm]

[Initial Saint Mission: Select a Qi Refining cultivator and extract their soul.]

[Reward: Premium Spirit Enhancement Pill]

Xu Yun looked at the contents above, his expression becoming increasingly troubled. This was his cheat system, called the Initial Saint System.

The tasks it issued were truly inhumane, randomly selecting an unfamiliar Qi Refining cultivator to extract their soul. How is this any different from the actions of a demonic cultivator?

Unfortunately, the rewards from this Initial Saint System were quite generous, and Xu Yun barely managed to reach the third level of Qi Refining through his own efforts.

However, if one possessed this high-quality Spirit Enhancement Pill, not only would one be able to break through the bottleneck without any hindrance, but one could even recover from the hidden ailments that occurred during the previous breakthrough.

More importantly, Xu Yun had specifically inquired and learned that this premium Spirit Ascension Pill was among the best available at auctions, which greatly excited him.

"Sigh, it's all the system's fault, otherwise I wouldn't be in this situation."

Xu Yun sighed again, then his eyes sharpened, and he used his disguise technique by forming hand seals.

Click!

With a sound of bones shifting, Xu Yun's face changed from that of a handsome young man to that of a rugged, burly man.

After disguising his identity, Xu Yun, based on the information he had gathered beforehand, went to a corner of the forest and waited quietly.

A moment later, a figure in plain clothes came into view, which made Xu Yun's eyes light up.

"They've arrived."

Since deciding to complete this mission, Xu Yun had made thorough preparations and secretly collected suitable target information.

The man in front of me is named Xiang Heyuan. He is a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining and has always lived alone, never communicating with others.

With weak cultivation and a weak presence, no one would care even if they disappeared, making them a suitable target for Xu Yun.

"Sigh, blame the Primordial Saint System. I was forced into this situation."

Thinking this, Xu Yun slowly got up, stepped out of the bushes, and laughed heartily, "Haha, young friend, it's fate that we meet. I see you have good potential; why not become my disciple?"

As Xu Yun spoke, a jet-black banner appeared in his palm, inscribed with layers of seal script, which together appeared complex and profound.

This Myriad Spirits Banner was a beginner's gift from the Initial Saint System. After studying it, Xu Yun found that it was indeed of good quality and could be a powerful weapon if used properly.

"Oh? What a magnificent banner of spirits."

When Xiang Heyuan saw the newcomer, a look of surprise first appeared on his plain face. When he glanced at the Myriad Spirits Banner in Xu Yun's hand, a look of greed and desire appeared in his eyes.

As a remnant soul of Foundation Establishment, he relied on great perseverance and luck, and with great difficulty and a secret technique, he managed to successfully possess this cultivator at a huge cost, and disguised his identity to secretly heal his wounds.

He happened to come here today to find the rare and precious herbs he needed to heal his injuries, but he never expected to encounter such a pleasant surprise. With his discerning eye, he could naturally tell that this Myriad Spirit Banner was of extremely good quality.

Even the Myriad Spirits Banner, which he forged by sacrificing tens of thousands of people with his own blood, is far inferior to the one in this man's hand.

Thinking of this, Xiang Heyuan's eyes darted around, and he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, I..."

Xiang Heyuan was planning to stall this person for a while, intending to secretly mobilize a trace of his remnant soul power to capture him.

After all, in his eyes, this person was only at the third level of Qi Refining, and even though he was holding the Myriad Spirits Banner, he seemed to be very kind.

This kind of person has no idea of ​​the dangers of the cultivation world, let alone that his true identity is a notorious Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator!

"what!"

However, before Xiang Heyuan could finish speaking, and before he could even mobilize the last trace of his remnant soul power, he sensed a large hand suddenly slamming down on his head.

He looked up in alarm and saw that Xu Yun's face, which had been kind, had become even more amiable, which made Xiang Heyuan feel a chill down his spine.

Before Xiang Heyuan could even ask him a question, suddenly, an inexplicable force emanated from Xu Yun's palm, quickly enveloping his head and causing him to let out a piercing scream.

"S-senpai, what are you doing?!"

Xiang Heyuan felt his already weak Foundation Establishment remnant soul become even weaker, and was even being constantly pulled away, which horrified him.

Could it be that this kid has figured out his identity?!

"Alas, young friend, your time has come."

Xu Yun still wore a kind smile, but his movements never stopped. In fact, the Myriad Spirits Banner in his other hand fluttered in the wind, and under his control, he directly extracted the soul from Xiang Heyuan's body.

At the same time, the Myriad Spirits Banner emitted bursts of black mist, and the banner swept up his soul, completely swallowing it into it.

"You bastard, what are you doing?!"

The remnant soul of the Foundation Establishment stage was filled with horror and dread, never expecting that he, a former demon lord, would end up like this.

However, Xu Yun had no intention of paying attention to him. Although he had extracted his soul, Xu Yun was afraid that the Initial Saint System would think he was not beast enough and thus fail to complete the mission.

Therefore, he immediately had a thought, and the layers of seal script on the Myriad Spirits Banner in his hand emerged and began to flash one by one.

Whoosh!

The next moment, dark flames rose up from within the Myriad Spirits Banner, and under the horrified gaze of the Foundation Establishment remnant soul, they were like a swarm of snakes emerging from their nest, instantly covering his body.

"ah--"

Within the raging, dark sea of ​​fire, the remnant soul of the Foundation Establishment stage twisted and grotesquely, leaping and bounding about. The terrifying heat and excruciating pain struck his soul, making him wish he were dead.

At the same time, Xu Yun activated the Myriad Spirit Banner once more. This time, countless strands of black energy condensed into fine needles, covering the sky and the earth. Under his control, they pierced every inch of the remnant soul's body.

Instantly, the remnant soul of the Foundation Establishment stage couldn't utter a sound, only feeling that it could exhale but not inhale, and was in a daze.

What grudge does he have against this person that he would treat him like this?

Compared to this person, what he did back then seems utterly insignificant.

【Ding! 】

[Task completed, reward issued!]

Just as Xu Yun was extracting the soul, a voice from the Primordial Saint System sounded, causing him to pause in surprise.

However, he had already tortured the soul in every way possible, so it was too late to stop now. He would just continue torturing it like this for now.

Once Xu Yun confirmed that the reward was already in the light screen and could be taken at any time, he stopped torturing the soul and completely refined it, turning it into the first spirit of the Myriad Spirits Banner.
