Chapter 69: System, It’s Finally My Turn to Shine
Before Li Tianwei could even achieve that so-called breakthrough in the heat of battle, Qin Yueying had already begun to undergo demonic transformation.
Her once enchanting figure and graceful posture suddenly became bloated and distorted.
At the same time, an inexplicable power began to spread throughout Panshan City.
No one knew when it started, but soon, those scattered forces connected into one.
Faced with the sudden change, Li Tianwei frowned.
“Li Tianwei, let’s see how you handle this.”
Through the shared consciousness of being born from the same root as the demon, Qin Yueying also knew Li Tianwei’s name.
After that vicious declaration, her entire body swelled with power, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged wildly toward her.
“Explode—”
With a cold snort, Qin Yueying unleashed the Nascent Soul within her body, choosing without hesitation to self-detonate — going all out in one final strike.
The moment she acted, it was far too late to stop her.
The entire process took place in an instant.
It seemed that the demons possessed a method to hasten a cultivator’s self-destruction.
Boom—
Spiritual power rioted, the surrounding spiritual energy compressed in an instant, and a terrifying wave of energy swept outward at a speed that seemed capable of annihilating heaven and earth.
The radiance of that blast illuminated the vast skies.
Seeing this, even though Li Tianwei understood what Qin Yueying intended, he still had to face it with full seriousness.
“Prison Heaven, Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend!”
Without hesitation, Li Tianwei activated his divine power to resist the devastating force of the Nascent Soul’s explosion.
However, the moment the powers collided, Li Tianwei sensed something off.
The explosion’s might was not as overwhelming as it should have been.
In fact, it was only slightly stronger than the power Qin Yueying had released earlier.
It did not resemble at all the annihilating force that came from detonating a Nascent Soul.
At that moment, the strange energy gathered across Panshan City began to converge and mutate.
The blinding light of the self-detonation slowly faded away.
Soon, the once radiant and beautiful Qin Yueying was nowhere to be seen.
In her place appeared a mass of eerie black mist — its form hideous and ferocious, as though a strange existence that devoured all things between heaven and earth.
At first glance, Li Tianwei understood at once.
“This is the demon’s true body.”
He gazed upon that writhing, corrupt figure gnawing at heaven and earth, its indescribable form amplifying the horror it exuded.
The exposed demonic entity stared fixedly at Li Tianwei.
Meanwhile, the strange power that had spread across Panshan City was now condensing upon its body.
【Host, host, please be careful! This is the demon’s true form — it’s likely trying to invade your body!】
Within Li Tianwei’s consciousness, the System immediately warned him upon seeing the scene.
At this moment, the System even felt oddly excited.
To it, this was finally the chance to demonstrate its true value.
Wasn’t this exactly what a system was meant for? To eliminate all invading entities that attempted to seize control of its host? Especially petty little demons like this — child’s play!
It could even be said that its choice to come to this world had been calculated.
The origin of the System was capable of resisting any form of possession or invasion — particularly those from demonic entities.
【It’s finally my time to shine.】
For once, the System was exhilarated.
After all, it had been enduring too much humiliation.
Its host was far too arrogant, freakishly powerful, blessed with extraordinary talent — and yet constantly mocked it, treating it like garbage.
This time, it would redeem itself!
The System cheered itself on in determination.
As for Li Tianwei, he naturally understood what it meant when a demon revealed its true body — its intent was clear.
Such a cliché tactic — unable to win, so it resorts to possession or self-detonation.
He, the great protagonist himself, had long since prepared for such scenarios even in the mortal world.
“Hu hu hu…”
After manifesting its true body, the demon scrutinized Li Tianwei.
The surrounding demonic energy condensed into a massive Demon Corrosion Array, its strength far exceeding the demon’s earlier expectations.
The stronger the array, the higher its chances of successfully seizing Li Tianwei’s body.
“Li Tianwei, you’re mine!”
With that thought, the demon manipulated the array, channeling the altered power toward Li Tianwei in a ferocious surge.
Seeing it charge forward, Li Tianwei retaliated with Prison Heaven and a flurry of divine techniques.
“You think such tricks can still affect me? Even if we can see each other, I’m not in the same plane as you.”
The demon laughed wildly — and indeed, as it said, none of Li Tianwei’s spells or divine powers could touch it.
It was clear that the demon had harnessed the strange power of heaven and earth, allowing it to bypass all conventional defenses.
When Li Tianwei saw that his attacks were useless, his expression remained calm.
The demon continued to draw closer, and seeing Li Tianwei stand motionless, it assumed he had resigned himself to fate.
“You should have surrendered earlier.”
“Come, let me become you!”
The demon’s true body had no idea what it was truly facing.
At this moment, all it wanted was to claim Li Tianwei.
Within Li Tianwei’s consciousness, the System stirred eagerly, yearning to display its usefulness at last.
Just imagining Li Tianwei acknowledging its power after it erased the demon’s presence filled the System with excitement.
Meanwhile, Li Tianwei not only made no move to resist, but even spread his arms, welcoming the demon’s true body with an expectant look.
“Hahahaha!”
Seeing him so cooperative, the demon trembled with delight.
Without any resistance, it plunged directly into Li Tianwei’s body.
Inside, the demon was ecstatic — this was its domain.
In its mind, no mental strength could ever rival that of the demonic kind.
Otherwise, how could they silently corrupt so many cultivators across the world?
As long as there was the tiniest crack in one’s heart, that was all they needed to take control.
Only true immortals could possess flawless hearts without a single flaw.
Having entered Li Tianwei’s body, the demon prepared to completely devour him, eager to see his pitiful struggle.
“Little Tianwei, here I come.”
In its view, Li Tianwei was nothing more than a brat under twenty — easy prey.
As it delved deeper, toward the core of his heart — the most fragile place within — the demon could already taste victory.
But just as it reached the deepest depths of the heart, the demon froze.
“What… what is this? How is this possible?”
In an instant, it was paralyzed where it stood.
The chaotic, shattered mental landscape it had expected — one it could easily dominate — did not exist.
Instead, before it stretched a boundless ocean of stars, an endless cosmic expanse of unimaginable vastness — the true depth of Li Tianwei’s heart.
“What… what is going on here…”
