In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 67 The Whale and the Cheater! (Please read on!!!)
"Master Taibai, please help me drive this nail into the skull of the bamboo rat."

"The physical strength of a late-stage Foundation Establishment spirit beast is too high; I can't break its defenses."

Ding--

Tai Baiji flicked the Soul-Suppressing Nail with his finger.

With a soft sound, the Soul-Suppressing Nail accurately pierced the bamboo rat's head, locking its soul firmly within its body.

"Master Taibai, boiling water can't scald this fellow's fur. Do you have any ideas?"

Thousands of sword lights flashed, and every hair on the bamboo rat was cut off by the sword energy, but the bamboo rat's skin and flesh were not harmed in the slightest.

"Next comes the disembowelment; I also ask Master Taibai for his assistance."

Another sharp glint of sword light appeared, and the bamboo rat's belly opened to both sides, the cut as smooth as a mirror, from which its internal organs gushed out.

Su Yuan can handle the next steps himself.

Looking at Su Yuan, who was enthusiastically roasting bamboo rats, and then at his daughter who was standing aside watching with a snake in her arms, Master Taibai felt a headache coming on.

Why would a universally acknowledged righteous swordsman do something like suppressing souls and casting evil spells on corpses?
Later, I'll even have to eat this dead bamboo rat myself.

What went wrong?
But when the irresistible aroma of meat wafted from the kitchen, he finally decided to let it go.

The food I ate before lacked soul; perhaps food with soul would taste even better.

While roasting, Su Yuan cleaned the scraps he had removed from the bamboo rat demon king and put them into his pocket.

For example, rat hair, the hair of a demon king in the late Foundation Establishment stage is the best material for making hairy zombies.

He definitely won't buy it if you ask him to, but if he can get it for free, he'll definitely take as much as he can get.

For example, the internal organs of bamboo rats. After asking Bai Ling if she wanted to eat these things and being refused, Su Yuan naturally accepted them with a smile.

Big shots are extravagant and look down on these scraps.

Su Yuan didn't intend to take these things back to cook, but rather to use them as materials for casting the Demonic Art: Finger Spirit.

What kind of elixirs and miraculous medicines can a late-stage Foundation Establishment demon king's body parts refine for me? I can't wait!
If the cook doesn't steal, the harvest won't be plentiful.

In short, even disregarding the 200,000 yuan reward the white-haired loli gave him earlier, Su Yuan has already made a fortune just by counting these scraps.

After the bamboo rats were almost roasted, Su Yuan quickly used Bai Ling's blood essence to cook a pot of snake blood vermicelli soup.

One dish and one soup are cooked at the same time.

Su Yuan was naturally invited to stay and have dinner with them.

Tai Baiji sat in the main seat, while Su Yuan and the white-haired loli sat side by side, looking more like siblings.

"Su Yuan, eat meat in moderation later. With your cultivation level, you can't digest too much Foundation Establishment food."

Tai Baiji reminded him.

Su Yuan nodded, but he had already made up his mind.

I'll know whether I can digest it or not as soon as I eat it!
This is a dish worth millions! It would be a shame not to eat more of it.

After Tai Baiji started eating, Su Yuan immediately picked up a piece of rat meat the size of a finger and stuffed it into his mouth.

The ultimate deliciousness exploded in Su Yuan's mouth.

Immediately afterwards, the immense spiritual energy contained in the rat meat, which was easily absorbed by the human body, began to rapidly flow into Su Yuan's limbs and bones.

Every cell in his body began to greedily devour this spiritual power.

However, the energy contained in the flesh and blood of the late Foundation Establishment stage demon king was simply too immense. After just one bite, Su Yuan felt bloated, and the cells in his body were unable to digest the spiritual energy in a short time.

Even with the help of the Abyss Lineage, refining this spiritual energy was still somewhat difficult.

No need to say anything, blue pill, activate!
Su Yuan took out a blue pill and put it in his mouth, which greatly increased his digestive and physical absorption abilities.

The spiritual energy contained in the rat meat was quickly absorbed.

Su Yuan picked up some meat with his chopsticks again, eating with great relish. Naturally, Tai Baiji had witnessed Su Yuan eating the blue pill earlier.

The Golden Core cultivator immediately recognized that the blue pill contained no prohibited ingredients or poisons, so he said nothing.

To his surprise, his own daughter also noticed the blue pill.

"Brother Su Yuan, what are you eating? Can I have one too?"

"You can only eat one, come on, open your mouth."

Watching his daughter being fed that evil pill by Su Yuan, Master Taibai felt a tightness in his chest.

But the medicine really didn't do any harm, so he had no reason to stop it.

He always felt like he was acting in a TV series called "The Incompetent Father," where he played the role of the father.

During the meal, Su Yuan ate a full three pounds of roasted bamboo rat and drank a large bowl of snake blood vermicelli soup.

With his body working at full capacity, amplified by the Abyss Dharma Line and the blue pill, he barely managed to absorb all the spiritual energy within.

As a result, Su Yuan made significant improvements in both his physical body and cultivation.

It's hard to estimate his physical strength, but Su Yuan felt that his strength had increased by about 10% compared to before he ate. He still needed to gradually experience the other values.

As for cultivation level, it's quite straightforward.

Before eating, his spiritual power was only 62.5, but after eating, his spiritual power was estimated to have reached 64, an increase of 1.5!

The higher the realm, the slower the rate of improvement in cultivation.

He improved his cultivation level so much from just one meal. It's no exaggeration to say that he jumped more than 300 places in terms of spiritual power among all the senior high school students in the city!

No wonder most of the students who score in the top 100 in the city's college entrance examination come from wealthy families; there are reasons for it.

Eating meals worth millions and taking pills worth hundreds of thousands, it would be strange if their grades weren't high.

This is the difference between a society where everyone cultivates immortality and a world without demons in the past.

In my previous life, unless I was rich enough to skip the college entrance exam and get a direct admission to Tsinghua or Peking University after studying abroad, I could only study diligently no matter how wealthy my family was.

At most, they can hire some famous teachers to give them some extra lessons. Rich people really don't know where to spend their money on their children.

But the era of universal cultivation is different. As long as you have enough money, there are countless ways to improve your performance on the path of immortality.

This is a common thread whether in the ancient times of cultivating immortality or in the modern world of cultivation.

Fortunately, Su Yuan had a cheat code.

Without the blue pills and the Abyss Dharma Lineage, most rich kids are far less able to absorb the spiritual energy contained in high-end ingredients and pills than he is.

When I'm rich in the future, I'll eat a million-dollar meal every day and see who can beat me!

Su Yuan secretly set a goal for himself.

Just then, Tai Baiji's voice rang out:
"Su Yuan, I heard you've been working part-time lately, how's it going?"

Su Yuan snapped out of his daze and answered honestly:

"It's alright, I should be able to earn a million a month without any problem. Don't worry, Teacher Taibai, I will definitely be able to pay the tuition for the special class on time."

Earning a million a month...

Although he had expected this, Tai Baiji was still surprised by Su Yuan's earning ability after hearing it from Su Yuan himself.

However, considering the endless stream of demonic inheritances this kid possesses, it's understandable.

He nodded and said:
“You saved Bai Ling, and this kindness cannot be repaid with just one meal. I should do something to show my gratitude.”

"Since you don't have any financial pressure, I won't give you money directly. Instead, I'll give you something else as a token of my gratitude."
