Warhammer: Become a Saint Starting with the Banner of Souls

---

Then, Qin Mo began to examine the expanded small world.

It was 100 meters square, completely empty, like a giant white cube with nothing inside.

But the system's prompt told him that the small world could now be freely modified according to his will.

"To change the environment at will...?"

Qin Mo closed his eyes.

A picture flashed into my mind.

That was his residence deep within the Xuanhuang Realm, the Eastern Wilderness, and the Wanling Mountains.

A bamboo house nestled against the mountain and beside the water, shaded by lush bamboo and surrounded by a clear spring.

There is a small pond in front of the building, where koi carp frolic. Behind the building is a medicinal field, where various kinds of medicinal herbs are grown.

Fresh, elegant, and tranquil.

That was the place where he had lived in the Xuanhuang Realm for two thousand years.

It was also his favorite place in his life.

Qin Mo opened his eyes, and with a thought, his spiritual power surged into every inch of the small world.

The ground began to change; the white void gradually turned emerald green, and grass sprouted from the ground.

On one side, a bamboo forest rises abruptly from the ground.

On the other side, a stream appeared out of nowhere.

A three-story bamboo house stands quietly by the stream.

Inside the building, there was a desk, a futon, and an incense burner—everything one could need.

In front of the building, there is a small pond with gently rippling blue water. Although there are no koi carp, the clear water reflects the image of the bamboo forest.

It's pleasing to the eye enough.

Qin Mo looked at all of this before him.

She nodded slightly.

"Hmm, it's still a bit off, but overall, it's similar."

He entered the bamboo house and sat down at the desk on the second floor.

Pushing open the window, outside, bamboo shadows swayed gently, and the stream murmured softly.

In a daze, it felt as if I had returned to the past, but the familiar figure was not by my side.

"..."

Qin Mo quietly looked out the window.

His gaze wavered for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

"What's with the sentimentality?" he said to himself, his tone indifferent. "It's just a change of location for cultivation."

If anyone saw this dwelling, they would never believe that it was the residence of a heretical practitioner.

There were no eerie skull decorations, no strange blood-red lights, no wandering vengeful spirits, and no pervasive miasma.

Fresh and elegant, like the cave dwelling of an elder of a righteous sect, even more elegant than some righteous sects.

But Qin Mo never cared what others thought. Did evil cultivators have to live in such gloomy and terrifying places?

Those are all stereotypes.

It's those insane colleagues who came up with these industry standards.

What evil cultivators must live in places with abundant yin energy to accelerate their cultivation? What about the Ten Thousand Soul Banner needing to be nourished by resentment, so its dwelling must be gloomy?

fart.

A cultivator in the Mahayana stage is a complete microcosm in themselves.

Where one lives has a negligible impact on cultivation.

When it's your own place to live, you should do whatever makes you comfortable.

Moreover, Qin Mo is fundamentally different from other evil cultivators.

Other evil cultivators collect souls, taking any kind of soul without exception.

His Ten Thousand Souls Banner contains only evil people, other evil cultivators, and those who are utterly wicked. He uses evil to control evil and evil to overcome evil.

This is his way.

This is also the fundamental reason why he is able to acquire merit through the "Merit System" in this world. If he were the kind of evil cultivator who indiscriminately kills innocent people, the Merit System would probably have turned against him long ago.

After settling into his residence, Qin Mo sat back down on the futon. He opened the system shop and began to carefully browse through the various items.

Previously, he had been too busy fighting and boosting morale to study the shop carefully. Now, taking advantage of the quiet of the night, he could finally take a good look at what other good things this system had to offer.

Elixirs, magical artifacts, formations, and materials.

He flipped through the categories one by one. Most of the items were either things he could make himself or things he didn't need at the moment.

Until he stumbled upon a category called "Special Classes".

Click on it, and you'll see the first item.

[Spiritual Root (Common, Metal): 10000 Merit Points]

[Spiritual Root (Common - Wood): 10000 Merit Points]

[Spiritual Root (Incomplete/Random): 1000 Merit Points]

[Spiritual Root (Excellent, Single Attribute): 50000 Merit Points]

[Spiritual Root (Supreme Celestial Spiritual Root): 500000 Merit Points]

Qin Mo's eyes narrowed slightly.

Spiritual root?

This shop actually allows you to exchange for spiritual roots?

He continued scrolling down.

[Spiritual Power Infusion (System Execution), 5000 Merit Points/Person]

[Effect: After implanting a spiritual root into the target, the system will channel spiritual energy into the body, opening up the meridians and granting them the aptitude for cultivation.]

[Note: The host can also channel spiritual energy into someone who has already been implanted with spiritual roots; the effect is the same, and no merit points are required.]

[Additional effect: A life form infused with spiritual energy will be completely immune to subspace corruption.]

Completely immune to subspace corruption?

In this world, the corruption of the warp is one of the greatest threats facing all of humanity.

Whether you are an ordinary person or a super soldier

Anyone exposed to the influence of chaos risks being corrupted.

This is especially true for psionicists.

And this spiritual energy flowing through the body could actually make one completely immune to this corruption. He had thought that only a body reshaped by the Golden Wheel of Merit could have this effect.

Qin Mo continued reading, and the system provided an explanation.

[Principle Explanation: The essence of spiritual energy infusion is to reshape the target's soul structure with spiritual energy, causing a fundamental misalignment between its soul frequency and the subspace.]

The corruption of the Chaos Gods is essentially the erosion and rewriting of the soul, and the soul reshaped by spiritual power is no longer within the frequency range that the Chaos Gods can reach.

In layman's terms, it's equivalent to the host first "corrupting" the other person's soul.

"I see……"

Qin Mo nodded slowly, his breathing quickening slightly.

Because he saw a path he had never seen before.

The army of cultivators.

These four words flashed through his mind like a bolt of lightning.

If he could implant spiritual roots into the humans of this world on a large scale and infuse them with spiritual power.

Then these people can cultivate and use the spells of the cultivation world.

Flying swords, magic arrays, talismans, and elixirs.

What do these things mean for the war landscape of this world?

A Foundation Establishment cultivator can fly on a sword, unleash sword energy, and set up simple protective formations.

A cultivator at the Golden Core stage can move mountains and fill seas, transmit sound over thousands of miles, and fight against a hundred enemies single-handedly.

A Nascent Soul cultivator is like a walking miniature nuclear bomb.

Moreover, these cultivators are completely immune to the corruption of chaos, which is a devastating blow to this human empire that has been tormented by chaos for ten thousand years.

A glint of excitement flashed in Qin Mo's eyes.

But he quickly calmed down.

Because he saw the price.

An ordinary spiritual root, ten thousand merits,

To channel spiritual energy into the body, if the system were to do it, it would cost an additional five thousand.

In other words, the minimum cost to train a cultivator is 15,000 merits.

If he were to perform the spiritual energy infusion himself, he could save the five thousand, but his time and energy are also limited.

Moreover, one spiritual root is gained for every ten thousand merits.

Even the cheapest incomplete spiritual root costs a thousand.
