Han Changqing Was Just a Weakling
Little A, that's transferring him from the Spirit Stone production line to the flesh and blood production line.
If they can't even make it in the Human Race, how could they possibly succeed among the Demon Race?
Lu Ping chose B.
[You chose B.]
[You lower your head.]
"What the Sect Master said, this disciple must think about."
[Han Changqing seems to really admire you; he didn't pressure you at all, and instead said somewhat listlessly,]
"Yes, smart people should think about this carefully."
[You flicked your sleeve slightly, and the enhanced version of the Spirit-Eroding Powder silently dispersed.]
[The Forbidden Ground area was already a mixture of Demon Qi and Blood Qi.]
[The grayish-black medicinal powder was drawn into the furnace smoke by the Earthfire and spread along the ground.]
[At the same time, Fire Crows materialized behind the Blood Furnace.]
[It pecked at a particular Array Patterns, and the Blood Furnace trembled slightly.]
[Han Changqing turned around abruptly, and roared in fury,]
"How dare you, you brat!"
[You dispel the Breath-Concealing Technique; your Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Spiritual Power breaks through the disguise.]
[Bully at Home, effective.]
[When facing someone also at the Foundation Establishment Realm, you possess absolutely invincible combat power; no one can defeat you.]
[Hundred-Forged Medicine Body Formula, in operation.]
[Spirit-Eroding Powder, activated.]
[Han Changqing's Spiritual Power faltered, and his previously confident expression suddenly changed.]
[You take a step forward, Red Fire Finger at Han Changqing's left chest.]
[Han Changqing raised his arm to block.]
[His protective Spiritual Power had just been activated when the Red Fire Finger pierced through it, striking his left chest and causing flesh to char and tear.]
[Han Changqing staggered back three steps, crashing into the edge of the Blood Furnace.]
He finally lost his composure.
"Foundation Establishment Middle Stage?! Lu Ping, you were hiding your abilities so well!"
[The next moment, Han Changqing burst into laughter.]
"Okay, okay, okay!"
"The Blood-Congealing Five-Elements Pill Elixir is missing one crucial ingredient: a variable catalyst."
"Lu Ping, you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep!"
[Han Changqing cast a Method Formula, and five-colored blood light surged within the Blood Furnace.]
The Golden Core Talisman Seal within Han Changqing's body also lit up.
[A golden talisman hovered between his brows, just like in the last simulation.]
[Golden Core level Divine Sense descends.]
[Upon its appearance, the Spirit-Eroding Powder within the Forbidden Ground was suppressed by more than half.]
[Your Spiritual Power circulation stalled for a moment.]
[This talisman is ineffective against those Bully at Home.]
[Han Changqing raised his hand and grabbed, five blood threads extending from the Blood Furnace, wrapping around your limbs and Dantian.]
[Options pop up.]
[A: Use the Hundred-Forged Medicine Body Formula to withstand the enemy's health bar and continue to close in on Han Changqing.]
[B: First, apply the Golden Core Talisman Seal, then use the Mind-Erasing Powder to disable Han Changqing's protective trump card.]
[C: Communicate with the Golden Core Talisman Seal to complain about Han Changqing's unauthorized use of cheats.]
Han Changqing himself is not difficult to kill.
Even with the Bully at Home, Han Changqing was just a weakling.
However, in the second simulation, that talisman shattered Lu Ping's dagger, cracked his Dantian, and killed him.
Lu Ping didn't intend to die twice in the same pit.
Lu Ping chose B.
[You chose B.]
[You raise your hand and crush the first Porcelain Bottle; the Mind-Erasing Powder, carried by Spiritual Power, flies out and collidees with the golden talisman.]
[The talisman dimmed, and an angry shout came from behind.]
Han Changqing paused.
Before they could react, the second Porcelain Bottle had already shattered.
[A talisman was drawn on the gray powder scroll, Golden Core level Divine Sense suddenly expanded, attempting to shake off the Mind-Erasing Powder.]
[Your Sea of Consciousness slightly numb.]
[ For Heavy Tomato Users, this is in effect.]
[Salty Fish, in effect.]
[You remained unmoved, and with a wave of your hand, the third dose of Mind-Erasing Powder was attached to thirty Flying Knives, which shot straight at the talisman.]
[Thirty Flying Knives exploded simultaneously, Mind-Erasing Powder seal.]
[The golden seal trembled violently, and the Divine Sense behind it suddenly retaliated, causing the Array Patterns of the Forbidden Ground to glow brightly.]
[However, this time, it actually shrank back into Han Changqing's body.]
[The trump card that was originally meant to protect Han Changqing now requires Han Changqing to protect it with his own body.]
Han Changqing finally panicked.
"Impossible! How could the Greenwood Sect possess Poison Pill can damage the Divine Sense of Golden Core cultivator!"
[Han Changqing raised his hand and slammed it against the Blood Furnace. The furnace lid exploded, and five-colored blood light poured into his body.]
[His bones crackled and popped, dark red demonic patterns emerged from beneath his skin, his arms swelled, and half a bone spur protruded from his back.]
[Han Changqing forcibly fused with the Blood-Congealing Five-Elements Pill, pushing his Foundation Establishment aura to the False Core level.]
[The human cultivator's Spiritual Power mingled with the Demon Race's Blood Qi, causing Han Changqing's physique to double in size.]
[Han Changqing stomped his foot, and the Green Jade Bricks on the ground shattered beneath his feet.]
[You take half a step back, and three hundred Flying Knives hover in front of you, each blade coated with Spirit-Eroding Powder and Mind-Erasing Powder.]
[You raise your hand and press down, and three hundred Flying Knives are launched simultaneously.]
[The Thousand-Hand Guanyin is still seven hundred hands short.]
[Han Changqing swept his arms horizontally, shattering the Flying Knives in front.]
[The Blood Qi surged, deflecting over two hundred Flying Knives.]
[However, more than a dozen bullets still lodged in his shoulder, neck, chest, abdomen, and near his forehead.]
[The Mind-Erasing Powder seeped into the wound, connecting with the Divine Sense and binding it to the Divine Sense within the talisman.]
[The talisman within Han Changqing's body lit up again.]
This time, the rune lit up briefly, then went out and shattered.
[The Demon Race's Golden Core Divine Sense was corrupted and torn apart.]
A roar erupted from Han Changqing's body, causing the entire Back-Mountain Restriction to tremble.
Han Changqing froze.
[You close the distance and plunge the short sword into his Dantian, channeling your Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Spiritual Power along the blade.]
[The Spirit-Eroding Powder sealed his meridians, the Mind-Erasing Powder severed the talisman seal, and the Blood-Congealing Five-Elements Pill was backfiring.]
[ By Bully at Home, you forcefully forced Han Changqing's False Core Spiritual Power back into his Dantian.]
[Han Changqing's demonic markings began to crumble. He looked down at the short sword embedded in his Dantian, then looked up at you, his eyes filled with resentment.]
"Lu Ping, you're clearly being forced by this world. Why can't you come with me to become a demon?"
[You flick the dagger upwards.]
"I'm willing to be your beast of burden."
"But it cannot be used as animal feed."
[Han Changqing's body slumped, and he knelt before the Blood Furnace, his breath completely dissipating.]
[The crimson Pill Furnace behind him then exploded.]
[Five Elder Tokens flew off the stone platform, crashed to the ground, and shattered in two.]
[A few lingering traces of life dissipated within the Forbidden Ground, then vanished completely.]
You stand still, silently watching those disappearing auras.
[You had no time for sentimentality; with a wave of your hand, you accepted Han Changqing's Storage Ring.]
[Not long after, rapid footsteps echoed Stone Gate.]
[The elder of the Law Enforcement Hall led his disciples in first.]
[Followed by Steward Wang of the Mining Hall, Liu Cheng of the External Affairs Hall, the Main Hall Storehouse Manager, and the remaining elders.]
