Me? A Demon Cultivation Prodigy?

Current emotional points have reached 1000, meeting the requirements to activate the system. Activate?

Listening to the prompt in his ears, Lu Ze clenched his fists in excitement.

It's finally here!

Three years ago, his soul transmigrated to this world known as the Tianxuan Continent.

Like all transmigrators, he had a system.

However, activating the system required a condition—obtaining 1000 emotional points.

He had waited a full three years for this very moment!

"Activate!"

An excited heart, trembling hands.

Three years!

Do you know how I've spent these past three years!

The original owner of this body was an Outer Disciple of the Spirit Cloud Sect, a major cultivation sect. His aptitude among the cultivators couldn't even be considered mediocre.

His only talent was an astonishing memory; he never forgot anything he saw.

After much thought, his choice for earning emotional points was—

Writing novels, becoming a miserable writer.

After all, his only talent was his photographic memory, allowing him to easily recall the novels he had read in his past life.

In the first year, to cater to the tastes of the ancients, he brought out Journey to the West, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Water Margin, publishing them anonymously within the sect.

The response was decent, especially for Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which was even circulated among the inner sect members.

But for some reason, the emotional points gained were less than 10.

He figured that perhaps these ancient classics had a weak ability to stir emotions.

In the second year, he changed his approach and copied Battle Through the Heavens and A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality.

These two books became a huge hit in the sect, earning him quite a few Spirit Stone.

But strangely, the emotional points were still pitifully low, totaling only a few dozen.

By the third year, Lu Ze gave up.

He felt that this system was just messing with him.

At this rate, it would take over a hundred years to activate the system, and he wouldn't live that long.

Fortunately, his two years of writing had earned him enough Spirit Stone that he didn't have to worry about his livelihood.

Lu Ze simply started writing nonsense.

Until one day, a short tragedy he copied brought in a considerable wave of emotional points.

Lu Ze suddenly realized—

So the system only wants negative emotional points!

You could have just said so earlier!

What kind of perverted system is this? Why does it like torturing others?

So, Lu Ze copied The Return of the Condor Heroes.

Yesterday, he had just written the chapter involving Little Dragon Girl and Yin Zhiping, and today, the emotional points exploded.

Fine, very good, very powerful.

It was a good thing he published anonymously; otherwise, he might have had the life to activate the system but not the life to enjoy it.

System loading... 55%... 80%... 90%... 99%...

Ding! Demonic Son System successfully loaded!

Finally, I'm about to reach the pinnacle of life...

Wait!

The name of this system seems a bit off??

"De, Demonic Son System?"

Lu Ze rubbed his ears, thinking he had misheard.

Correct. By obtaining such massive amounts of negative emotional points, the host is unscrupulous, devoid of humanity, and a once-in-ten-thousand-year demonic genius who will surely lead the demonic path to prosperity!

Pah!

Who is unscrupulous and devoid of humanity!

I'm a law-abiding citizen, alright!

Lu Ze's mentality collapsed.

Although the Tianxuan Continent has both righteous and demonic paths, the demonic path is in decline.

No, it should be said that the gap in strength is immense.

The demonic path is being completely crushed and trampled by the Righteous cultivator.

He was living perfectly fine in the Spirit Cloud Sect, only to be suddenly told that he had become a member of the demonic path?

Lu Ze's world collapsed.

If others were to find out, he would likely be dragged away by the Enforcement Hall for execution immediately.

"Then what use are you?"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Ze asked tentatively.

After all, it is a system; if its functions were powerful enough to face the vast Righteous cultivator alone, then becoming an unpardonable demonic leader might not be such a bad idea.

Reply to host: After binding the system, the host can obtain Demonic Value by killing Righteous cultivator. Demonic Value can be used to improve the host's cultivation.

Lu Ze's brain instantly crashed.

With his aptitude, he would spend his entire life at the bottom of the Cultivation World.

Three years after transmigrating, he is still at the third level of Qi Refining.

How could he possibly have the ability to kill a Righteous cultivator?

"With my current strength, there is no possibility of killing a Righteous cultivator... what should I do?"

Lu Ze sighed.

Reply to host: As long as you kill about 100 Righteous cultivator, you can raise your cultivation to the next realm.

"???"

Lu Ze felt his fists clench.

What to do if you can't beat a Righteous cultivator?

Use the system.

How to use the system?

Go kill a Righteous cultivator.

Damn it, are you trying to create an infinite loop here!

"Uh... how about you unbind and find another host?"

Lu Ze swallowed hard, his mouth twitching.

This hellish system, I'd rather not have it!

System binding successful, cannot be unbound.

"...Whoever designed this system must have their whole family living in misery."

"Junior Brother Lu, my Demon-Seeking Compass is broken. Do you have time to help me fix it?"

Just then, an Inner Disciple walked into Lu Ze's room with a hurried expression.

"Senior Brother Ma, going out to execute demon-slaying missions again?"

Lu Ze set aside his distracting thoughts and nodded at the visitor.

"Yeah... my luck has been great lately. I keep getting demon-slaying missions, and the brothers are thrilled!"

"It's just a pity that the Azure Peak Sect also received the news. We fought fiercely to snatch those few demonic cultivators, almost tearing them apart."

"We first took the demonic cultivators and did this, and this..."

"And then we did that, and that..."

The Inner Disciple described the miserable fate of the demonic cultivators to Lu Ze with great excitement.

The speaker was beaming, while the listener frowned deeply.

Look at this.

Whenever the demonic path appears, the Righteous cultivator act as if they've found treasure, scrambling over each other to slaughter demons and prove their path.

This is the fate of the demonic path. I'll just pretend this system never came...

Lu Ze thought to himself.

The situation for the demonic path in this world can be described as miserable to the extreme.

The slightest activity leads to being surrounded and suppressed by the Righteous cultivator.

"Talking so much, I forgot the main point..."

The Inner Disciple pulled a black compass from his robes and placed it in front of Lu Ze.

"My Demon-Seeking Compass is broken. I haven't been able to track any traces of the demonic path today, so help me take a look."

Lu Ze took the Demon-Seeking Compass and examined it.

Although he is an Outer Disciple, he has some talent in artifact refining.

This is mainly due to his identity as a game designer in his previous life, which made him very sensitive to data and programming.

Coincidentally, the functional logic behind the operation of various magical artifacts and treasures in this world shared many commonalities with the programming languages of his past life.

Therefore, Lu Ze's performance in the field of artifact forging was remarkably brilliant.

Even though his own cultivation base was poor, he was still accepted as an Outer Disciple by an Elder of the Artifact Forging Hall as an exception, allowing him to work within the hall.

Seeing that nothing could be discerned from the outside, Lu Ze channeled the spiritual power within his body and probed into the interior of the Demon-Seeking Compass.

Suddenly, the needle on the Demon-Seeking Compass spun wildly, pointing directly at Lu Ze.

"..."

Lu Ze's breath hitched.

"Look, this Demon-Seeking Compass is truly broken beyond repair; it's actually pointing at Junior Brother Lu."

The Inner Disciple patted Lu Ze on the back with a chuckle.

"Haha, you've become a member of the demonic path while still in our Spirit Cloud Sect, hahaha..."

"Hmm, the issue with this Demon-Seeking Compass is indeed quite serious. I must repair it properly for you."

"Alright, then I'll be off."

After seeing his senior brother off, Lu Ze's expression turned grave.

This shitty system had turned him into a demonic cultivator the moment it bound to him.

Once his identity was discovered, he would likely be reduced to nothing but bones in an instant.

The Spirit Cloud Sect, a major sect of immortal cultivation, was brimming with martial vigor, and its atmosphere for cultivation far surpassed that of heterodox paths. As an excellent demonic cultivator, you must strike a blow against the cultivation fervor of the Spirit Cloud Sect.

Task: Prevent over thirty percent of the Spirit Cloud Sect's disciples from cultivating in peace for five days.

Task Reward: Both Righteous and Evil (outsiders will be unable to perceive your demonic aura).
