Throwing the Cultivation World into Chaos
Luo Min watched the scene before her with pleasure. In front of her were cultivators kneeling on the ground, many of whom had already Nascent Soul.
Such a powerful cultivator would be respectfully addressed as "Great Power" wherever he is, yet now he is kneeling so humbly at her feet, begging her to spare his life.
Hearing their tearful pleas, Luo Min smiled triumphantly. She felt as if she had returned to more than three hundred years ago, when her father was still alive and was the city lord of White Foothill City, and when she was the most honored woman in the city.
Seeing Luo Min smile, the male cultivator closest to her immediately prostrated himself at her feet, holding her feet and pleading, "Miss, I have identified them one by one as you instructed, and even lured them to White Foothill City. Please, give me a way out! Please, give me the pill!"
Luo Min tilted her head and smiled, looking at the man's long, hairy hands with great delight.
No one knew that this pill, jointly developed by Demon Race and Human Race cultivators, would have such a severe side effect as causing people to grow Demon Race features. When Luo Min discovered one day that she was covered in short brown hair in the mirror, she smashed the mirror in front of her in a frenzy and immediately went to find the sect leader of the Mara Gate, begging him to find a solution for her.
However, it is clear that to possess Spirit Root, one must pay a price, but that price is far too heavy.
Knowing that he could never return to normal, Luo Min made a second condition—to develop a pill that would turn cultivators into Demon Race.
This is obviously much easier, because the dregs of the Life Spirit Pill have this effect. As long as the cultivator takes it, a transformation will occur instantly, turning him from a normal person into a half-human, half-demon monster.
Luo Min looked up again at the people scattered on the ground, and after seeing the obvious mutations on their bodies, her smile became even brighter.
The man kneeling beside her, thinking his actions had pleased her, quickly prostrated himself, pleading, "Please, young lady, give me the antidote!"
Luo Min smiled and replied, her eyes slightly narrowed, "Thank you so much. I really wouldn't have been able to find them all without your help. It's just a pity that I don't even have the antidote for what I fed you."
"You! You wretch!" The male cultivator, who had been respectful and humble just moments before, suddenly stood up and struck Luo Min with a palm strike.
Luo Min seemed to be terrified, remaining motionless as the male cultivator attacked her.
The kneeling cultivators watched this scene intently, their eyes filled with a terrifying mix of anticipation and madness.
Kill her! Kill this witch now! Once she's gone, they'll be free!
Unfortunately, just as the opponent's palm, imbued with powerful Spiritual Power, was about to strike Luo Min, he suddenly stopped. The male cultivator's body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground without warning. A hole had appeared in his chest, from which blood was continuously flowing.
"Oh dear, what a pity. I'd like to keep such an obedient dog." Luo Min smiled, but there was no trace of regret on her face for the male cultivator.
Those below, witnessing this scene, looked at Luo Min with even greater fear.
Standing in the shadows, Qi Yaoji took in everything that was happening and saw clearly Luo Min's gesture of raising her finger.
She was ordered by her master to help Luo Min take control of White Foothill City, but she had no interest in watching her play such childish games.
"That's enough. Once you've dealt with them, let's get down to business. I have other tasks to do and don't have time to waste with you here," Qi Yaoji said impatiently.
Because both the Life Spirit Pill and the Transformation Pill currently being given to these cultivators are mixed with Luo Min's blood, anyone who takes these pills will be controlled and influenced by Luo Min.
Those who haven't revealed their beast form are fine, but once they undergo a change, they will involuntarily submit to Luo Min.
It's as if she held these people's lives in her own hands; their fates were entirely up to her.
Mara Gate originally planned to eliminate Luo Min after he had used her usefulness. However, this unexpected event thwarted their plans.
They also considered abandoning Luo Min and using other medicinal herbs instead, but soon everyone discovered that the pills containing Luo Min's blood worked, while the ones without blood could not generate Spirit Root no matter what they tried.
On one hand, there was a continuous stream of geniuses with Single Spirit Root; on the other hand, there was Luo Min, who counterbalanced them. After careful consideration, Mara Gate decided to continue cooperating with Luo Min.
Now, Luo Min has lost her family and her most prized appearance, and has become even more extreme and terrifying than before.
Even Qi Yaoji sometimes couldn't understand what this person was thinking.
"Don't rush me," Luo Min's tail swayed gently behind him, "I haven't had enough fun yet!"
Among those brought back and kneeling were those who, like the male cultivator from before, were cowardly and afraid of death, as well as those who were bold and fearless to the point of being unafraid of death.
As if unable to endure Luo Min's torment any longer, he suddenly stood up and shouted angrily, "What right do you have to kidnap us here? So what if we didn't save your father? So what if we didn't help you defend White Foothill City? Your Luo Household has committed countless evil deeds, and your father has colluded with the Demon Race to harm countless innocent people. Doesn't he deserve to die?!"
"Your Luo Household lost your lives and White Foothill City; it's entirely your own fault!"
The tall male cultivator's words seemed to serve as a signal, and the others stood up in response. "Well said! This demoness is alone, and only at the Golden Core stage. If we all attack together, she will have no time to worry about escaping."
After he finished speaking, several figures sprang out from the kneeling crowd and simultaneously unleashed their Spiritual Power at Luo Min.
The five-colored Spiritual Power immediately illuminated most of the dark sky, making it dazzling to behold.
However, the Spiritual Power coming from all directions was instantly dissipated by a strange force the moment it touched Luo Min. Luo Min remained unharmed, sitting in the chair, while those who had attacked her lay on the ground, lifeless.
Luo Min covered her mouth and giggled twice, looking at the corpse on the ground as if it were trash. "I told you long ago, don't make me angry easily. When I'm angry, I can kill people~"
A dark cloud drifted in from nowhere over White Foothill City, obscuring the already dim moon and stars, preventing even a sliver of light from penetrating.
Qi Yaoji did not stop Luo Min's frantic behavior. She knew very well that when Luo Min could no longer control himself, that would be the time for them to get rid of him.
However, Qi Yaoji quickly forgot about Luo Min, because she received news from her master that the Gods and Devils Battlefield in the Upper Realm had been broken open, and the place connecting it to the Lower Realm was in the Cloud Mulberry Realm!
Her mission was to find a way to seize the Teleportation Array of the Cloud Mulberry Realm and open the door wide for the demons who were frantically pouring into the Lower Realm!
"This is going to throw the entire Lower Realm into chaos!" Qi Yaoji couldn't help but exclaim.
The man hidden in the most secluded place slowly curled the corners of his lips. "Yes, that's it. We must stir up chaos in the entire Lower Realm. Otherwise, how can we establish unparalleled Merit?"
He will surely achieve what he wants, and even if he can't do it in one lifetime, he'll do it in another!
