Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System

Chapter 406 - 336: The World’s Number One Foundation Establishment Demon Talent

Su Yuan stood respectfully.

Even though he anticipated that the school’s top student would appear in this team, it still felt a bit unreal when Guo Zhengyi stood before him in person.

He exclaimed in surprise:

"So you are Senior Brother Guo, the top student in the school."

"I heard that during the conquest of a Great World, you personally killed three Golden Core Stage demons and were hailed as a model of Evil Extermination. Is that true?"

Guo Zhengyi modestly waved his hand and said:

"It was just luck, pure luck."

"And I don’t dare to claim the title of the top student in the school. If it weren’t for the university’s rule that students automatically graduate or advance to postgraduate studies after reaching Core Formation, how could I have ended up as the top student?"

Su Yuan didn’t take this seriously and said with a smile:

"There are indeed many prodigies who reach Golden Core Stage by their senior year, but I think most of them have done so because they haven’t mastered a complete Divinity Transformation Inheritance."

"But you’re different, Senior Brother Guo. You are the only one among the current students who have mastered the complete Divinity Transformation Inheritance from the Evil Extermination Department."

"Your status as the top student in the school is well-deserved."

Guo Zhengyi scratched his head, seemingly a little embarrassed by the praise.

He thought for a moment, then pulled over two other senior students who had almost as much demonic qi as him.

"Let me introduce you. This is Jiang Taibai, the strongest in the Sword Dao Department, who has mastered the complete Divinity Transformation Inheritance from the Sword Dao Department, the second in the school."

Guo Zhengyi pointed to the young man beside him, dressed in white and exuding an aura of ethereal elegance, and then pointed to another woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses with an intellectual grace:

"This is Lv Tianqiao from the Artifact Refining Department, who mastered the complete Divinity Transformation Inheritance of her department, the third in the school."

Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi, and other freshman and sophomore students quickly greeted the senior brother and sister.

It was clear that Guo Zhengyi, Jiang Taibai, and Lv Tianqiao were the main forces of the school team and were the most likely to defeat Xuan Haoran at Evil Extermination University.

The only pity was that these three were not among the top five Foundation Establishment Demon Talents in the world.

This meant that although their demonic qi was daunting, their way of thinking was that of normal people.

After greeting each other, Su Yuan asked a question he was very curious about.

"With the strength of you three seniors, you should be able to defeat Xuan Haoran, right? After all, his age and cultivation time are only equivalent to a junior, and he hasn’t gone through many life-and-death trials."

However, upon hearing Su Yuan’s question, the smiles on the three seniors’ faces stiffened slightly, and the atmosphere fell into silence.

After a while, Guo Zhengyi finally spoke:

"Junior Brother Su Yuan, you don’t understand the terror of a Divine Son who has inherited the true lineage of their forebears."

"I can tell you clearly that the Divinity Transformation Inheritances at Evil Extermination University, and in fact, at all universities, are far inferior to the true lineages of the Ten Great Celestial Monarchs."

"Because the former has lower thresholds and costs less, and can be popularized on a small scale, while the latter is custom-designed by the Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarchs for their descendants, costing countless efforts, and is unique."

"Facing such an opponent, we can only bet on his lack of combat experience, but in terms of raw power, we absolutely dare not confront Xuan Haoran."

"Unique..."

Upon hearing this word, Su Yuan immediately thought of the Divinity Transformation Inheritance of the Purple Gold Dragon Venerable.

The Ten Great Celestial Monarchs are indeed very generous towards their offspring!

Even if their true lineages aren’t as ruthless as the Dragon King’s Inheritance, requiring the sacrifice of a daughter and forty-nine Nascent Soul True Dragons, can the handiwork of the Divinity Transformation Great Power fall behind?

Giving their own sons a unique talent is very possible.

In this light, Xuan Haoran is definitely not a hardworking type like Qi Hanyan but rather one who is adored by his celestial parental lines up to the sky.

So, what is the situation with Qi Hanyan’s parents, the Star River Celestial Monarch?

Presumably, they only have Qi Hanyan as their daughter, right? Isn’t it appropriate to prepare a Divinity Transformation Inheritance?

Is it that they haven’t prepared the inheritance, or does Qi Hanyan not meet the standards to inherit it?

Su Yuan pondered this in his heart and deeply understood the pressure faced by Guo Zhengyi and the others.

It was just like facing Chen Nuoyi.

Putting aside external powers like the Tribulation Moon Pearl, Dragon Emperor Coin, and the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea, no matter how many means he used, he would still be crushed by Chen Nuoyi. That’s the weight of the unique talent ’Dragon Emperor True Body’.

Fortunately, this was not his headache; he was just there for a ride.

Thinking of this, Su Yuan said sincerely:

"No need to worry, seniors; as the saying goes, man can conquer nature."

Meanwhile, the team leader of the school team had already arrived.

Heh, it was none other than Su Yuan’s conveniently found master, Taibai Phecda.

After all, the Celestial Calculation Divine Child was just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, not enough for the school leaders to come out in full force. Just having a Nascent Soul True Monarch to oversee was enough.

At that moment, this Sword Immortal-like man had an expression of slight resignation, with a white-haired lolita on one side and an ice-haired lolita on the other.

There was no choice because Taibai Yuxi insisted on going to the Observing Heaven Pavilion to watch the show.

When Taibai Phecda agreed to take his daughter, Su Yuan also slipped Long Bai into his care.

One lolita was a stroll, two lolitas were just as manageable.

Moreover, Taibai Yuxi and Long Bai both played important roles in the Sword Trial Tournament for Su Yuan.

The former can help him find Foundation Establishment Demon Talents, while the latter can provide material support at critical moments.

This is Su Yuan’s exclusive logistics team.

Once the twenty students selected for the school team were gathered, Taibai Phecda waved his hand grandly and led the team onto the Sword Ship, flying towards the University City of Observing Heaven Pavilion.

Upon arriving at Observing Heaven University, the reception was handled by a familiar face, the Instructor of Observing Heaven Pavilion who had visited Taihua City before, Ye Muyu.

"It’s been almost a year, hasn’t it, Su Yuan? You’ve made great progress."

Ye Muyu naturally picked up Taibai Yuxi, her eyes, seemingly with golden stars orbiting, looked at Su Yuan with great interest.

Faced with Ye Muyu’s seemingly emotionless eyes, Su Yuan always had a feeling of being seen through.

He gave a wry smile:

"Instructor Ye has also become more beautiful, I guess you’re not far from advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage?"

Ye Muyu did not answer, instead, she said:

"The destiny of this world seems to be more closely linked to you personally, Su Yuan. I hope you can keep your heart warm and not drag the world into the abyss."

"Instructor Ye, what do you mean by that..."

These words left Su Yuan feeling completely mystified.

Taibai Phecda, leading the team, said:

"Don’t mind her, those who research the Dao of Destiny are all like this, mysterious and cryptic, just go inside quickly."

Under Ye Muyu’s meaningful gaze, Su Yuan followed the school team into the plaza of the Observing Heaven Department at Observing Heaven University.

Inside the plaza, the school teams of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, including Observing Heaven Pavilion, had already gathered.

Each school team stood in a corner of the plaza, the team members all gazing towards the center of the plaza.

There, a nine-story Exquisite Treasure Tower stood tall.

At the top of the tower sat a young man of ordinary appearance and lazy demeanor, cross-legged.

The moment Su Yuan saw this person, he immediately heard a ’ding’ sound in his ear.

[You are facing the number one ranked Foundation Establishment Demon Talent in the world, Celestial Demon Child!]

Number one ranked?

No longer the indiscriminate top five, but directly locked at number one?

Su Yuan’s heart trembled.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but be curious about what Xuan Haoran had done to become indisputably number one in the world.

It couldn’t just be because of high cultivation and good family background, right?

[As the second son of the Observing Heaven Pavilion Master, Celestial Demon Child was born with a sin: he devoured his twin brother while still in the fetal stage to strengthen himself.]

Devoured his twin brother in the fetal stage?

Isn’t that what medicine defines as Vanishing Twin Syndrome? Simply put, it’s the phenomenon where in early confirmed twin pregnancies, one embryo stops developing and gets absorbed by the mother or the other fetus.

This also counts as original sin?

But on second thought, in the Cultivation Realm, a child born after devouring a twin brother is indeed an ominous symbol.

Moreover, due to the excessively strong bloodline of the parents, this situation can lead to various unexpected mutations in the fetus.

Being born already ahead of the starting line, I acknowledge you as one of the top five Foundation Establishment Demon Talents in the world.

But what did you do after birth to be defined as number one in the world?

[After devouring his twin brother, the Celestial Demon Child possessed talent beyond that of ordinary Divine Sons. His eyes saw further than anyone’s, yet he chose to close his eyes, abandoning his talents.]

[Born with sin and responsibility, yet unwilling to bear the responsibility, he let everything be. His very existence is the embodiment of a True Demon, single-handedly causing the Observing Heaven Pavilion Master endless troubles.]

[And now, he has finally opened his eyes, but they are filled with a darkness that can engulf everything.]

Dog system, what are you rambling about? Can you speak clearly!

Su Yuan was a bit speechless.

He felt that the dog system must have been influenced by the atmosphere of Observing Heaven Pavilion, as its prompts had become as ambiguous as a charlatan.

However, putting aside the last sentence, Su Yuan could understand the earlier statements.

Simply put, it means that the Celestial Demon Child has top-tier Immortal Dao talent that could benefit the entire Cultivation Realm, but he’s slacking off.

Well, so this guy isn’t even a hard-working type like Qi Hanyan.

But this guy’s revival time is clearly earlier than Qi Hanyan’s. After slacking for a while, he has already picked up his talents again and inherited the true teachings of the Observing Heaven Pavilion Master.

Su Yuan couldn’t help but be curious about what could have driven the slacking number one Foundation Establishment Demon Talent to revive.

As Su Yuan observed Xuan Haoran, who was sitting cross-legged on the tower tip, he finally opened his eyes slowly.

The dog system had repeatedly mentioned that Xuan Haoran’s eyes were unusual, so when he opened his eyes, Su Yuan anticipated seeing some kind of powerful eyes like Reincarnation Eyes.

Then, Su Yuan saw a pair of... perfectly ordinary dead fish eyes.

Moreover, these eyes looked as if he had just woken up, with a bit of a dazed expression.

After a while, Xuan Haoran scratched his head and said:

"People have gathered pretty quickly."
