Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

Chapter 81 Infinite Terror Begins with Magical Girls (7,000 words, please vote!)
The undercover operation was a great success.

Jiang Si hadn't expected things to go so smoothly; she had already won over the other party by killing only the second person.

He had been a little worried that his plan might be too complicated.

It's important to understand that the more complex a scheme is, the more cooperation it requires from the opponent. If any link in the chain goes wrong, the entire plan will collapse.

In online novels that emphasize realism, there are never any complicated schemes that would disrupt the immersive experience.

Fortunately, the Witch Society of Jiangming City also possesses sufficient wisdom.

Only clever people can fall for his complicated plans.

We entered the third room, although there were no signs on it.

But in Jiang Si's eyes, it seemed as if there was a huge golden plaque with four large characters written on it.

Heavenly Emperor's Treasury!

I don't know what method the witch used, but I couldn't sense even a trace of magic.

If Bai Mei hadn't located all the Witch Society leaders beforehand, Jiang Si wouldn't have been able to find out about these Witch Society members.

They have the ability to block magic and interfere with perception.

He turned to look at Ruoyun, who was still following him, and asked, "Did you hear the password she mentioned just now?"

Ruoyun immediately shook her head, "I didn't hear it! I won't tell anyone!"

"You really didn't hear me?"

"I really didn't hear it!"

Jiang Si sighed as he looked at Ruoyun, who seemed afraid that he would kill her to silence her.

He still preferred the disciple who had occasionally tried to argue back; at least he had backbone.

Unfortunately, he fought his way from the bald man's side to this middle-aged man's stronghold, but perhaps his resolve wasn't strong enough; he became somewhat cowardly after seeing some dead bodies.

However, Jiang Si had roughly anticipated that Bai Mei probably hadn't interfered with their cultivation.

After all, guiding magical girls in their training is a rather troublesome task that requires patience.

Knowing when to guide their enthusiasm and when to severely punish them to instill fear, using a combination of kindness and severity, is a skill that most people cannot master.

Only a genius like Bing Tang, whose abilities and temperament far surpass those of his peers, could do that.

However, Bai Mei was too lax in even grasping the basics...

Jiang Si looked up and glanced at the security door of the Witch's Society's secret underground warehouse.

It's very thick; I tapped it, and the steel quality is quite good.

"66478."

The password is correct, but the door is stuck.

I pushed it and found that the combination lock was probably broken.

He took a step back, gathered his strength, and then charged forward, kicking the thick steel door with a running start!
Ruoyun saw the steel door dent slightly, and then cracks instantly appeared in the surrounding walls.

The powerful impact shattered the walls surrounding the steel door!
The sturdy steel door, dragging along the surrounding frame and walls, flew backward with a crash, slamming into a monstrous beast inside.

The dormant calamity beast, along with the calamity eggs in the glass jars behind it, was instantly crushed to pieces.

Jiang Si's eyes showed heartache. "Those despicable remnants of the Witch Society, how could they waste my rare and precious treasures with such methods!"

"..."

Didn't you use too much force and kick the door open?

Then he turned back to look at Ruoyun, "What are you still following me for? Do you want to steal my opportunity?"

Ruoyun was immediately so frightened that she shook her head repeatedly.

"Then get out of here."

"I... I can't transform yet, I'm afraid of encountering the witch."

Having gone through this journey, she has come to understand things better.

Although the boy in front of us was ruthless, he was not someone who indiscriminately killed innocent people.

At least he didn't care about the ordinary people the witch would capture. Although he was beaten up, he only suffered a few light blows.

If the other party were serious, Ruoyun felt that even if she transformed into a magical girl, she probably wouldn't be able to withstand that kick to the door just now.

So he's not really a vicious person, of course, but if you upset him or steal his things...

This Jiang Motu did not hesitate to take action.

Two ordinary people who had been captured by the witches earlier had their legs broken in an attempt to steal the Lament Seeds he had just collected.

Although the two people went mad and tried to steal his Lament Seed because they were driven insane by the Witch Society, Jiang Motu did not hold back at all, but in the end he did not take their lives.

Ruoyun didn't want to be crippled.

As long as you don't provoke the other party and just go along with them, you're still quite safe.

They are currently near the Witch's Guild's headquarters. As a magical girl from the Qingyun Sect, she cannot transform and would easily be captured by the Witch's Guild if she went out.

So why not just follow Jiang Motu?

Moreover, Ruoyun also became somewhat curious about him.

"Jiang Motu, why are you helping the Witch Society to fight against our magical girls? You are so powerful, the Disaster Management Bureau and our Qingyun Sect would both welcome you."

Perhaps it was the sense of security she felt following behind the other person all this way, and perhaps it was also because she had witnessed the other person kill so many members of the Witch Guild.

Ruoyun's dislike for him wasn't as strong anymore.

They even wanted to recruit him.

With this kind of strength, if they could join the Qingyun Sect or the Disaster Prevention Bureau, wouldn't they be able to easily fight against the Witch Society?

Nowadays, the Jiangming Municipal Government has been heavily infiltrated by the Witch Society. Under the government's propaganda, the citizens of Jiangming City have become more inclined to side with the Witch Society.

In reality, witches do quite a few dirty tricks in secret.

For example, Ruoyun's own parents died at the hands of the Witch Society.

Because she has the potential to become a magical girl, the witch resorts to buying, persuading, and deceiving her in an attempt to take her away from her parents.

In the end, they were all rejected.

Because the methods used had always been too mild, a cadre named Water Snake kept giving gifts to the parents, saying nice things, and even coming over to chat and help with housework, treating them like relatives.

But his parents never granted his request.

The water snake then killed both her parents.

Ruoyun will never forget that day. Her parents, who were just preparing to celebrate her birthday, went out to buy groceries. She stayed at home, lit the candles on the cake, and waited patiently for her parents to return.

However, when she returned, it was the water snake who took out a beautiful gift box and said it was a birthday present for her.

When Ruoyun opened it.

The water snake sat across from her at the table, singing her a happy birthday song.

Congratulations on her new lease on life.

The gift box contained the heads of the parents.

After that, she was taken away by a water snake and sent to a factory, where she was rescued by her teacher.

He severed the water snake's limbs and handed a knife to Ruoyun, who then killed the snake herself.

The teacher is amazing, the teacher is very kind. Over the years, she has saved many people and killed many bad people in the Witch's Guild's territory.

However, one tree cannot support a forest; a teacher cannot do everything by himself.

They could only try to avoid direct conflict, constantly gather information and data, and save those harmed by the Witch Society. This is how the four disciples of Qingyun Sect came to be.

Although the Qingyun Sect has a headquarters, Teacher Bai Mei always says that the time is not right yet, and that the headquarters will provide support when the time is ripe.

But that opportunity seems like it will never come.

The citizens of Jiangming City were deceived, and the Witch Society became increasingly restrained and covert in its methods. In fact, it had not committed any murders in the past two years and had been trying to win over the hearts of the people. As a result, the Qingyun Sect, which had been causing trouble for the Witch Society, became a rat that everyone wanted to kill.

If Yun knew, it was just that the witch was being patient, patiently waiting until the Disaster Management Bureau collapsed, at which point everyone in Jiangming City would fall into hell.

Just like I was back then.

Having witnessed many despicable things witches do under the guidance of her teacher, Ruoyun also obtained her own miracle seed.

However, lacking the necessary skills, he couldn't help the teacher at all.

All disasters are caused by insufficient strength.

Because of his own lack of ability, he caused the death of his parents.

Because of the inadequacy of the Disaster Management Bureau, the Witch Society was able to develop.

Because the Qingyun Sect was not strong enough, it was portrayed as an evil organization by the Witch Society.

If we had enough power, if we could wipe out the Witch Society, there wouldn't be so much pain and tragedy.

But no matter how hard I try, the speed at which I become stronger is still very slow. No matter how hard I try, the result is always the same.

Barely making it into the new seedling stage was her limit; Teacher Bai Mei always shook her head at her, looking disappointed.

I can't become stronger; I can't stand on my own like my teacher.

I'm just an ordinary braided pigtail; I don't have that kind of power, I'm too weak...

Unable to become an inner disciple of the Qingyun Sect, the Qingyun Sect headquarters wouldn't care about a small place like Qingyun.

After all, apart from Teacher Bai Mei, the other four were all novices.

If we could recruit such a powerful person into the Disaster Management Bureau or the Qingyun Sect, dealing with the Witch Society wouldn't be so difficult, right?

Teachers will also have a much easier time.

Although it's because the Witch Society is currently preoccupied with dealing with the Disaster Management Bureau and Teacher Bai Mei, they don't have time to deal with Jiang Motu.

But their strength is not to be underestimated.

Stronger than myself...

Thinking of this, Ruoyun felt a pang of sadness.

What is my value as a magical girl...?

Perhaps there's something else I can do, even just a little bit...

"Stop being a dog for the Witch Society, come join our Qingyun Sect and Disaster Management Bureau!"

Hearing Ruoyun's advice, Jiang Motu merely smiled coldly, "To be a dog?"

Jiang Motu entered the treasure vault, reached out and picked up the rows of Calamity Eggs. Some of the Calamity Beasts had already awakened due to the unusual activity and were eyeing him.

"Nonsense. Does joining the Qingyun Sect and the Disaster Prevention Bureau mean you're not a dog? What's your basis for this judgment?"

Ruoyun was speechless and began to rack her brains, trying to figure out how to persuade the other party.

They ignored the other party.

Jiang Motu simply followed the method given by Chi Lian, wrapping the filthy demonic power around the calamity beast.

The core idea behind controlling the monsters is resonance.

The sensory array, constructed using corrupted magic, can, once completed, capture the source of the calamity beast's emotions with extreme precision through seven high-precision, sensor-like array endpoints.

Then you can try to understand the emotions of the monsters.

Each calamity beast is born from extreme emotions, but these core emotions are hidden very deeply.

Resentment, pain, sorrow, anger...

First, you must understand the emotions of the birth of the calamity beast, and then you must be infected by the same emotions so that the calamity beast feels a sense of kinship with its kind.

This is the first step in controlling the monstrous beast.

Then, one can continuously resonate with the calamity beast through the perception array, immersing oneself in the same negative emotions as the calamity beast...

However, Jiang Motu tried it and couldn't help but shake his head.

Is this the tactic of a century-old organization?

It's simply unreasonable.

Aside from the fact that the design of this perception array is somewhat interesting and its complexity far exceeds Jiang Si's expectations, other aspects, especially in terms of concept, are completely based on heretical cultivation thinking.

Trying to understand the feelings of the monsters, trying to contract the same emotions and make them feel a sense of kinship with them, is itself polluting one's own emotions.

To put it bluntly, it's about treating yourself like an animal to communicate with a monster.

Despicable.

They willingly degenerate and pollute the moral order.

Although Jiang Si doesn't read many web novels about beast taming, since they mainly focus on animals that he has no interest in, they mostly talk about how to strengthen those little beasts.

Even if their cultivation methods were correct, Jiang Si could still become stronger by imitating those stray cats and dogs, but it would be meaningless, since they were ultimately external objects, and the training results were mostly death.

Therefore, Jiang Si had long ago turned her nose up at online novels featuring beast taming.

But he did know a little about how to tame wild beasts, as described in other online novels. They were just a bunch of wild beasts, after all.

Let them infect me?
joke!

I should be the one infecting them!
The filthy emotions were transmitted through the resonance, but through the same resonance, Jiang Si could also implant certain emotions into the core of these calamity beasts.

Resentment? Pain? Grief? Anger?
We don't need so many useless emotions.

The hundreds of calamity beasts and the myriad mixed negative emotions were gradually unified.

The greatest negative emotion in the world overwhelms and assimilates all other emotions.

In the end, only one emotion remained—the emotion that Jiang Si had bestowed upon them.

fear.

The calamity beasts that he had entangled with his corrupted magic gradually awoke, rising up and beginning to emit dangerous growls.

More and more calamity beasts rose up, their roars resonating with the calamity eggs, and some calamity eggs even began to give birth to new calamity beasts.

The calamity eggs here are filled with negative emotions, and the eggs are filled with fully formed calamity beasts that could hatch at any moment!

Ruoyun was startled.

Then he held tightly to his seed of miracle.

If all the calamity beasts born from the Calamity Egg were to hatch, there would be nearly a hundred calamity beasts!
Looking at Jiang Si, who remained motionless, she bit her lip.

Ruoyun hesitated for a moment.

He was almost ready to transform, but transforming here would be pointless even if it helped him defeat the monster.

It can be a little later.

Jiang Motu is very powerful, but he is still just an ordinary person. Even if he can use corrupted magic, it is very difficult for him to deal with or control so many calamity beasts at the same time.

I'll wait until he's in trouble, then lend a hand. Maybe then I can get him to join the Qingyun Sect...

"Kneel down."

However, Jiang Motu only said a few words, and the originally aggressive, fierce and violent monsters actually knelt down obediently!

Each one was trembling, as if enduring immense fear!
How did you do that...?

Ruoyun had seen witches control calamity beasts before, but this was definitely not how they controlled them; the other party was not using any of the witches' control methods at all!

Extraordinary physical strength, the ability to freely control corrupt magic, and a method of controlling calamity beasts completely different from the Witches' Guild.

"What exactly is the Holy Temple...?"

She murmured the question unconsciously.

Jiang Si took a deep breath and plopped down on the back of a calamity beast, whose tentacles delivered the Calamity Egg to his hand.

Jiang Si stuffed two small things into his body.

It's not impossible to attain enlightenment with three thousand golden pills.

Furthermore, parasitic monsters constantly coil around and burrow into the golden core within the body, providing magical power.

An endless stream of terrifying power permeated his entire body!

As the three golden pills resonated and connected, Jiang Si took a deep breath.

He clenched his fist, looking at the surging, overflowing filthy magic.

The pinnacle of new seedlings, the realm of ultimate perfection!
With a wave of his hand, magic materialized, simulating dozens of planets and transforming the entire warehouse into a dark and deep cosmic environment.

With sufficient precision, creating such special effects using magic is not a difficult task for Jiang Si.

Jiang Si casually picked up a planet, placed it in her palm, and smiled slightly.

Finally, no one has asked. He had made a lot of assumptions about the Holy Temple in his mind, but so far, not a single member of the Witch's Guild has asked what kind of organization the Holy Temple is.

Damn it.

She has to be a magical girl, someone who isn't ashamed to ask questions.

The planet in his hand split into two, then into three, transforming into ten nearly identical planets orbiting Jiang Motu. Then, a great sun rose from behind him, illuminating the entire universe. "These ten nearly identical planets are both places where we are and places that are not where we are."

Ruoyun nodded, seemingly confused.

"Planets are like fireflies, and the world is like a tide."

"A firefly's fleeting moment, a tide's rise and fall—the world vanishes in that instant." The great sun suddenly erupted, destroying the ten planets, plunging the entire universe into darkness for a moment, before slowly illuminating again, accompanied by these leisurely words.

An eerie color enveloped the tranquil environment. Jiang Motu opened his hand, and ten more spheres flew out from it.

It still circled, but now it no longer resembled a planet; instead, it was a bubble shimmering with light within its darkness: "Those with great supernatural powers, great compassion, and profound understanding cannot bear to see sentient beings perish in ignorance—"

"Standing above the vast world, reaching out from the other shore, we build a sanctuary."

"Countless rays of light fall upon everything in sight, awakening the innate wisdom of all things, and allowing them to leap out of the sea of ​​suffering once more."

"The profound light of the Great Dao spreads, and all people are of one mind; the world's desire to ascend to immortality transcends all realms."

"To make such a grand vow is to be the Lord of the Holy Temple."

With a casual tap, a bubble suddenly expanded and enveloped the two of them. What came into view was a rapidly expanding cosmic web, then a supercluster, a star system, a planetary system, and finally a planet returned to Jiang Motu's hands.

"In the three thousand worlds, there are countless living beings. Although the Lord of the Holy Temple has made a grand vow, this great undertaking is arduous and lengthy. That is why our Holy Temple needs to travel all over the world to find those destined to become members of the Holy Temple and achieve unity among all. The Witch Society? It's just a tool picked up casually."

Ruoyun was so shocked by the methods of the demon slayer before her that she was speechless.

She gazed at the intricate stars and universe, her lips trembling. "So, you're so powerful as an ordinary person, is it the power of the Lord of the Holy Temple?"

Good question. It instantly sparked Jiang Si's thinking and helped her complete the setting of the Sanctuary.

"The Sanctuary will issue missions to its members, and the completion of these missions will bring generous rewards. With these rewards, even a mortal can gain extraordinary power comparable to that of a witch or a magical girl. That is why I possess such power, because I have traveled to many worlds and completed enough missions."

Ruoyun suppressed her excitement, "Me? Can I really become very strong?"

Jiang Si looked him over and pondered for a moment. “Your talent isn’t great, but I can recommend a wheelchair exchange list for you: Mother’s Drowning Spring + Dao Heart Demon Seed + Divine Maiden Bloodline + Black Heavenly Book + Narcissistic Curse + Shattered Dream Blade. As long as you complete enough tasks, you can become infinitely stronger after exchanging for it. As long as you have enough points, talent doesn’t matter.”

"I...I want to join the Holy Church!"

After shouting those words without hesitation, Ruoyun trembled with excitement.

"I also want power, power as strong as yours! I want magical girls and witches to disappear! I want everyone to return to normal life! I want to become stronger, much stronger!"

Ruoyun shouted, "I want to become a member of the Holy Temple!"

Jiang Si was stunned for a moment by her excitement.

But seeing the other person's serious and expectant expression, Jiang Si touched her mask and said in a deep voice, "Good! Very spirited!"

"But I refuse."

The sudden rejection brought Ruoyun's excited emotions to a standstill.

Shouldn't the atmosphere have been conducive to agreeing?

The moment the thought of being dumbfounded popped into my head, I heard the masked man in front of me slowly say, "The Lord of the Sanctuary once said that before a person can join the Sanctuary, she must first answer one question."

With that, Jiang Motu waved his hand lightly, and the planet in his hand flew back to its original position in the universe. In contrast, a strangely incongruous dialog box, reminiscent of an antique computer, appeared before Ruoyun's eyes.

Do you want to know the meaning of life? Do you want to truly live?

The girl's pupils contracted slightly, and she looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.

What do you mean?
The other person seemed to gasp, then explained in a deep voice, "Are you sure you want to become a member of the Holy Order? Once you become a member, your previous identity will be wiped clean."

After a moment of pause, Ruoyun thought of the guidance and help that Teacher Bai Mei had given her over the past three years.

These years, I've spent time with Bai Mei, Qian Jing, and Shui Ling, sharing countless everyday moments.

We fight together, laugh together, cry together, and learn together.

Every memory is incredibly beautiful.

The teacher is really good to them; Qingyun Sect is a great organization.

but……

From the day Ruoyun became a magical girl, she wanted to change the essence of this world—coerced by magic, people are constantly being corrupted, and people are constantly becoming miracles, like a competition that makes it hard to breathe.

The Qingyun Sect is great, but it can't help you realize your dreams; Teacher Bai Mei is great, but she never cares about her dream of becoming a magical girl.

"I……"

"He fought across three thousand miles, and his sword once faced a million soldiers."

A soft murmur interrupted Ruoyun's reply, and then she heard Jiang Motu suddenly praise, "What a fine sword!"

Before the words were even finished, a single sword cleaved the heavens!
Ruoyun looked up, staring blankly at the sky.

That's right, suddenly, you can see the sky from this underground warehouse.

The terrifying sword energy swept past like a storm in an instant, and Ruoyun didn't even notice it.

The ceiling and the building above had all disappeared. Dark clouds filled the sky, as if it were about to rain. A gentle breeze blew by, and a figure in white robes floated by.

"teacher……"

Ruoyun's lips moved, but she lowered her head and dared not look.

Jiang Si simply looked up, her expression indifferent, and said, "You've come."

Bai Mei pointed her sword at Jiang Si, her aura imposing, and declared, "I'm here!"

"You shouldn't have come."

"But I'm still here."

Ruoyun was slightly taken aback, even though Jiang Si's words had previously revealed that she knew Teacher Bai Mei.

Now she was certain that the two of them were indeed acquaintances.

But it was clear that the relationship was not good, given the hostility and the unusually strong fighting spirit emanating from Bai Mei.

Ruoyun knew that the two were definitely not friends.

Jiang Motu is the teacher's enemy...

"Ruoyun, come here." Bai Mei glanced at Ruoyun, smiled slightly, and then looked back at Jiang Si. "You are also a first-rate cultivator. I suppose you wouldn't make things difficult for a junior."

"I see. With one more burden, you have no chance of winning, is that right?"

Bai Mei proudly raised her chin, "How could that be? Even if I need to protect my disciple, I, Bai Mei, am still invincible in this world!"

Jiang Sixin felt extremely happy.

As expected of my eldest disciple, he can recite the sayings of the Qingyun Sect's ancestors much more fluently than Bing Tang.

He laughed loudly, and his filthy magic exploded forth!

"Bai Mei, the sword cultivator, has the bearing of an emperor!"

The sword energy and the foul magic collided violently, and a huge gust of wind stirred up dust, causing Ruoyun to instinctively reach out to shield herself.

"Qianjing, go and bring your junior sister back."

Bai Mei blocked Jiang Si's burst of magic with her sword, then turned to the students behind her and instructed them, "Be careful."

"I understand, teacher!"

Then Ruoyun saw her friend Qianjing flying down from above, calling her name with a happy expression, "Ruoyun!"

"Come here quickly, your teacher and I have been looking for you for ages!"

When Qianjing flew down and reached out to grab her, Ruoyun looked up and slapped away the outstretched hand.

"I want to leave the Qingyun Sect."

The previously lively atmosphere suddenly became stiff and cold.

Dark clouds rolled overhead, and the faint sound of thunder could be heard.

Having forced Jiang Si to retreat, Bai Mei turned her head and looked intently at Ruoyun, who had rejected Qian Jing, and slowly asked, "What did you say?"

Ruoyun raised her head, looked at the teacher who made her feel cold for the first time, took a deep breath, and said, "I've decided to leave the Qingyun Sect."

"boom!"

A sharp sword slashed past Ruoyun's cheek, and Bai Mei's small body trembled slightly as she coughed violently.

Qianjing looked at Ruoyun, equally bewildered, "W-why? What happened?"

Biting her lip tightly, Ruoyun lowered her head and said, "It's my own business."

"Traitor!"

Just as Bai Mei was about to step forward and grab Ruoyun, Jiang Motu stepped forward and blocked the two of them. "A good bird chooses a good tree to perch on, Fellow Daoist Bai Mei."

Qianjing almost burst into tears, "Ruoyun!"

A crash of thunder.

Bai Mei tilted her head slightly, her face pale, pursed her lips, gripped the sword in her hand, and pointed it at Jiang Si:
