If you remember correctly, this gourd can store even stronger and more numerous souls.

Only the soul of a cultivator would be stored inside.

Perhaps your senior noticed your confusion, or perhaps he was showing off.

He stated directly that the gourd contained the soul of the deceased disciple.

Their souls will be soothed and will protect every member of the Valley of Good People.

[But in your mind, the image of the spirit tower appears.]

These senior disciples might receive extra rewards for collecting the souls of their deceased disciples.

Upon returning to Liangren Valley, all the new disciples seemed dejected, burying themselves in their cultivation and no longer mentioning the valley's missions.

Only you, from time to time, follow different teams, carrying out missions of varying difficulty near Liangren Valley.

Several of your senior classmates tried to remind you, but seeing that you wouldn't listen, they gave up.

In this world, just looking after oneself is already so difficult.

Why bother with another hothead?

[One of your senior classmates would occasionally offer you guidance, and even shared some of his resources with you.]

[Even demonic cultivators seem to have a sense of camaraderie among their sects.]

[Resources are plentiful, and they're further enhanced by the awe-inspiring demonic energy.]

You have quickly become one of the best among all the new disciples.

The Valley Master is starting to value you.

[You're showing signs of becoming the senior disciple among this generation of new disciples.]

Becoming the senior disciple among your peers comes at a price.

[It's not just about overwhelming others with force.]

We must also be constantly on guard against sneak attacks and challenges from others.

Because for each step you take upwards, the resources you need will be extremely difficult to obtain.

To obtain resources, one must possess the corresponding status and the corresponding strength.

[This is true not only of Liangren Valley, but of all sects and factions throughout the world.]

Spiritual energy is gradually dwindling, and resources are becoming increasingly scarce.

The strife has been ongoing since ancient times.

In the competition among fellow disciples, you easily defeated your peers and earned the title of the new senior disciple.

However, compared to your senior classmates, your status is still the lowest.

The resources we've acquired are still scarce compared to those of our senior colleagues.

[Your arrival has made these senior brothers feel threatened. Even the senior brother who used to be so kind to you has started to ignore you.]

[The Hundred Refinements Demonic Art was merely designed by the Valley Master for newcomers. Only after you master it to its peak will you begin to encounter the true demonic art within the Valley of Good People, the Blood Refining Technique.]

This technique feeds on blood. Those who master it can use their blood to control others or unleash explosive power by burning their blood.

Most of my senior brothers have reached the Great Perfection stage, and a few of them seem to be practicing other demonic arts.

The best resources are monopolized by the senior members. If you newcomers want to acquire resources, you either need to work for the senior members to obtain a certain quota, or you need to leave the valley to perform tasks and exchange them for resources.

As a result, the senior students gained a bunch of lackeys.

【Your choice:】

1. Choose someone to rely on.

2. Leaving the valley to make a living.

[3. Personal intervention, 3 attempt remaining.]

"Another choice between two options? I might as well try both."

After saving the game, Su Chen directly selected option 1.

You approached the senior student who had treated you well before and explained your purpose. He seemed somewhat surprised but did not refuse.

To gain resources, you must make sacrifices.

[However, what this senior brother needs is not your power, but something else.]

You have been drugged.

【…】

You woke up in bed.

Su Chen frowned as he looked at the short three-line description; this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

Su Chen touched the ellipsis with his hand, and the moment the image appeared in front of him, he immediately exited.

Grandma Li’s!

nausea!

[You angrily stood up, wanting to kill your senior brother.]

But unexpectedly, her body was no longer under her control.

[You are dead. 】

"I got goosebumps."

So disgusting!

Choose option 2!

The strong never stoop to being subservient to others.

How many others have made the same choice as you?

Unlike the first time I left the valley, this time there were no senior brothers to guide me; I had to rely on myself for everything.

[You consult the map, alone, and leave Liangren Valley.]

Your mission this time is to bring back one hundred souls and blood, and only those who have cultivated can do so.

[You're only at the fifth level of Qi Refining; you'll really need to come up with a better approach to complete this task.]

Chapter 52 Master and Disciple in the Mountains

"Master, isn't it a bit dangerous for us to get so close to Liangren Valley?"

In the valley, an old man and a young man dressed in coarse cloth were walking slowly.

"near?

The place we're going to is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from Liangren Valley, not even on the edge of it.

However, that area is frequently visited by demonic cultivators, as it lies at the intersection of several demonic sects.

"Wouldn't that be even more dangerous?"

"Master, shall we head back home?"

Snapped--

A crisp sound rang out, and the boy covered his head with his hands, looking at his master with tears in his eyes.

“Ah Yuan, those who cultivate themselves must not back down.”

Those self-proclaimed righteous people are all indulging in eating, drinking, and pleasure in the city.

Even practitioners like you and me would turn a blind eye.

How will those ordinary people survive?

"But what about the Demonic Sect?"

They couldn't just stand by and watch the people die.

Even if you can't survive, you can still come out.

The fact that they don't come out proves they can survive, doesn't it?

When Lu Yuan saw his master raise his hand, he quickly hid to the side.

“What is nourished by the demon is called resources.”

In their eyes, ordinary people are not people, but resources belonging to them.

These vast mountains, which we both climbed with such difficulty, how did those people manage to get out with their families?

Only when monks like us frequently go in will they have a chance to come out.

The old monk glanced in the direction he was heading and then led Lu Yuan onward.

"Just like the founding master?"

"Ah."

"Isn't that just being an idiot?"

As soon as Lu Yuan finished speaking, he realized he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly covered his head, but he felt he couldn't avoid it, so he stood still obediently.

Lu Yuan didn't expect that his master wouldn't hit him.

"He really is an idiot."

"what?"

Lu Yuan's eyes widened.

My master always held the patriarchs of all generations in the highest esteem and never uttered a disrespectful word.

This was the first time Lu Yuan had ever heard such outrageous words.

"Our sect has lasted for more than two thousand years, passed down from our founder to the present day, and every sect leader has been a fool."

Including me.
