Chapter 57: The Local Cultivators Are Far Too Rude.
The devil inside Zang Xiuyuan’s body thought so, yet when he saw Lin Yexiao’s expression, it was as if the man before him was praising him like he was the one and only Great Demon under the heavens.
Though it was a devil, its way of thinking and everything about it were unlike that of a human.
However, with the memories of this body, it believed that humans should enjoy being praised by others.
Lin Yexiao’s tongue was indeed formidable.
Zang Xiuyuan wondered if he should learn a thing or two from him — perhaps it could even save his life.
But why did his expression grow darker, and darker still?
As Lin Yexiao kept speaking, Li Tianwei’s gaze turned increasingly cold.
Amid the boundless resentment energy, a faint trace of fury began to rise.
Under the surge of killing intent and anger, the previously all-encompassing black demonic energy and resentment force were tainted with a vivid red hue, dyeing the heavens black and crimson — a sight even more chilling to behold.
Seeing this change, Lin Yexiao’s whole body trembled even more.
“Th-this... Senior is truly the Descending Demon Lord! What a dense force of killing and resentment! If I could learn even half a move, I could roam unhindered across the entire Demonic Sect Territory!”
“I beseech Senior to take me in as your disciple!”
Just as Lin Yexiao continued speaking in such a manner—
Li Tianwei, who had thought he had gained control over his emotions after comprehending the Dao Intent of Anger, had now reached his limit.
He truly could not imagine how these demonic cultivators and devils could be so unrestrained.
The devil back in the Sacred Land of Lingxu had already defiled his Heavenly Talent.
And now, having come to this Demonic Sect Territory, these demonic cultivators and devils were actually insulting his character and integrity!
What “Demonic Dao” — this was clearly the Dao Intent he himself comprehended from the heavens and earth!
The righteous cultivation methods he practiced were all bestowed by Bai Muxu, the Peak Master of Heaven’s Gate Peak of the Sacred Land of Lingxu, a sacred place of the righteous path.
They were all stored in his spatial ring — if those weren’t righteous methods, then what were they? Could such things be faked?
There was no doubt — this demonic cultivator and devil before him were here to humiliate him!
His master, Bai Muxu, the righteous Peak Master at the pinnacle of Spirit Transformation Realm, had said it himself — his cultivation was a glorious righteous path!
There was no doubt.
The demonic cultivator and devil before him were deliberately trying to shatter his Dao heart with such filthy and obscene words!
Fortunately, his Dao heart was firm and unwavering, allowing him to immediately see through their despicable tricks.
“Silence! Despicable vermin, how dare you insult me so, trying to corrupt my Dao heart!”
Li Tianwei shouted in fury and waved his hand.
Under the spiritual energy of the Demonic Sect Territory, the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend merged with the countless wicked thoughts of this land.
Countless black and crimson flames of Yin Fiend fell from the heavens — within them, one could faintly see hideous and broken phantoms glaring with boundless hatred at Lin Yexiao and Zang Xiuyuan, who was just about to imitate Lin Yexiao and beg for mercy — but was caught completely off guard.
“Ah! As expected of the true Demon Lord I’ve seen! Such decisive slaughter! To die under such a method is truly…”
As the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend descended, Lin Yexiao showed no fear at all.
Instead, he was filled with excitement and continued shouting.
“Filthy, obscene words…”
A vein bulged on Li Tianwei’s forehead.
As for Zang Xiuyuan, the devil, he looked at both Lin Yexiao and Li Tianwei with strange eyes.
One was more demonic than he was, while the other seemed out of his mind.
For the first time ever, as a devil, he actually felt like he was the only normal one here.
Unfortunately, he had no time to think — not even a chance to resist.
The Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend that had evolved after Li Tianwei’s transformation was already infinitely close to a Divine Ability.
Boom—
As the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend fell, its terrifying corrosive power directly obliterated everything in its path.
Previously, with the unevolved Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend, Li Tianwei had already annihilated two Nascent Soul Manifestations.
How could two mere Golden Core cultivators withstand it now?
It was complete suppression.
The endless fiendish flames of Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend fell, piercing through everything.
Li Tianwei specifically targeted Lin Yexiao, striking him fiercely over a dozen times until the man turned into nothing but a pile of flesh — utterly annihilated, body and soul.
“The demonic cultivators of the Demonic Sect Territory are far too rude.”
After killing both a demonic cultivator and a devil, Li Tianwei could not help but mutter.
He had expected a grand, exhilarating battle to exterminate evil and uphold justice — yet he hadn’t imagined that these demonic cultivators had truly cultivated their brains into madness, spouting such filthy nonsense to defile his righteous path!
“It seems I should learn a few soul-related techniques — perhaps extract their souls to use as lantern wicks. Otherwise, that’d be letting these devils off too easily.”
Li Tianwei thought seriously to himself.
【Pfft... hahahaha...】
Inside Li Tianwei’s consciousness, the System could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.
“Hm.”
Hearing the System laugh, Li Tianwei’s brow twitched slightly.
At once, the System fell silent, suppressing its laughter deep within.
“I heard you laughing just now. What exactly were you laughing at?”
Li Tianwei’s cold voice drifted slowly into the System’s consciousness, making it feel an inexplicable chill down its metaphorical spine.
【Host, you know I am a System — just a string of data. I have no human emotions. I merely malfunctioned earlier, but I’m fine now.】
【However, witnessing your heroic figure purging demons and upholding the righteous Dao with such brilliance truly fills me with joy.】
The System immediately went silent again, pretending as though nothing had happened.
Having said that, it showed not the slightest hint of guilt.
After all, even Li Tianwei’s master could lie with his eyes open — so what was wrong with a System following suit?
As for Li Tianwei, after hearing that, he said nothing more.
Though, to be honest, he was indeed disgusted by the demonic cultivators and devils here.
Too shameless.
They possessed such a fine cultivation land, yet they cultivated the demonic path.
Cultivating the demonic path was one thing — but to be so lacking in manners?
Righteous and demonic paths might stand opposed, but he could have accepted it if it were a true contest of skill.
Instead, all they used were these underhanded, vile tactics — endless obscene taunts aimed at insulting one’s integrity.
“No. I can’t tolerate this. They must be properly disciplined. I cannot ignore it.”
“Now that I’m already here in the Demonic Sect Territory, how could I possibly let this slide?”
Li Tianwei made a silent decision — therefore, his return to the Sacred Land of Lingxu could wait a little.
He could take this chance to set up a few small arrays here.
He glanced around the western surroundings, took out a pile of Spirit Stones from his spatial ring, and retrieved the Radiant Wheel.
He began channeling spiritual power into it while setting up formations by the side.
This was, after all, a Land of Near Dao — Li Tianwei had no intention of wasting such an excellent cultivation ground.
He would surely return often in the future.
【Host, when did you learn formation techniques? Why don’t I know about this?】
At this moment, within Li Tianwei’s consciousness, the System sounded utterly bewildered.
After all, it had never separated from Li Tianwei — and these past days, Li Tianwei had only been cultivating on Heaven’s Gate Peak, waiting for that devil’s banquet.
He hadn’t had the time to learn such things at all!
“Didn’t you see?”
“I learned it here.”
Li Tianwei pointed at the Radiant Wheel in his hand.
“It looks like all sorts of geometry and topology. As long as the placement is correct and the spiritual energy connects properly, it works.”
【……】
The System fell silent for a moment, scanning up and down.
It found that Li Tianwei was no different from before — perfectly normal.
And yet... he was abnormally normal.
Clearly, Li Tianwei was being extremely abnormal, but at the same time, he seemed utterly normal — the System didn’t even know what to say anymore.
