I died young at the start, but I'm reincarnated with unlimited skill points!

"Purify the demonic energy... exchange your life for a clear sky..."

Li Zizai murmured softly.

He did not fall asleep again.

Instead, he sat cross-legged on the stone ground, closed his eyes, and followed the extremely special route in his mind.

The first operation of the mortal self-mutilation technique began.

Without spiritual roots, one cannot sense any spiritual energy from the outside world.

However, this technique does not require external spiritual energy.

It seeks within itself.

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed.

Li Zizai suddenly opened his eyes.

"It really can work..."

He truly sensed a faint yet pure aura within his mortal body.

That was the life-giving fire of mortals, and the only kindling that could burn against evil in this desperate situation.

The next morning.

The spacious stone chamber at the heart of the underground camp.

Li Zizai urgently summoned more than a dozen leaders and deputy generals of the resistance army here.

The atmosphere inside the stone chamber was somewhat strange.

At the very end of the long stone table stood a ragged, thin old man and a child.

The leaders looked at each other, and finally one of them couldn't hold back any longer.

"Chief, we're here to discuss how to survive the camp. Why did you call in an old beggar on his deathbed and a baby?"

"Isn't this ridiculous?"

The other leader also frowned, his tone showing some impatience and irritability.

"Chief, the messengers from yesterday weren't properly cleared. Today, the Dali army will definitely come to search the mountains. We don't have much time left."

Old Dog seemed somewhat afraid when faced with a group of desperados, but Su Yu showed no fear or panic.

He glanced around at the high-ranking rebel leaders present and said in a calm tone.

"I asked him to bring me here."

A child's voice echoed in the stone chamber.

Everyone was taken aback.

Li Zizai immediately stood up, ignoring his subordinates' astonishment, and respectfully cupped his hands in greeting.

"Immortal Master."

That single word from the immortal caused the entire stone chamber to fall into a deathly silence.

The leaders stared wide-eyed as their leader, who could slay tigers and leopards, bowed to a five-year-old child.

"Chief, what did you call him?"

Lieutenant Li Xiaotian couldn't help but speak up.

"I am a cultivator."

Su Yu didn't beat around the bush and directly admitted his identity.

Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions.

"Cultivators? They're just legendary immortals! This world doesn't even have a clean breath, where would cultivators come from!"

"Exactly! In this world, there are only demons and mortals. This brat probably doesn't even know what the term 'cultivator' means!"

Nobody believed it.

In this world completely corrupted by demonic energy, cultivators have long since perished.

The old dog turned pale at this, but his thin body remained ramrod straight.

"Don't yell at him! Gouwazi wasn't lying!"

The old dog gritted his teeth, met those murderous gazes, and shouted defiantly.

"He's different from other dolls! He's the one who taught me to recognize herbs and cured all my chronic ailments!"

"He is the reincarnation of a celestial being; everything he said is true!"

The old dog doesn't know what a cultivator is.

But he knew that over the past five years, Su Yu had displayed extraordinary intelligence and skills that were beyond the reach of ordinary people.

He treated Su Yu like his lifeblood, and whatever Su Yu said went.

Even when facing this group of ruthless bandits, he would never allow anyone to say a bad word about Su Yu.

"Shut up, all of you!"

Li Zizai shouted sharply.

He had personally experienced the dream that appeared out of nowhere last night, and even genuinely cultivated that trace of innate pure energy within his body, so naturally he had complete faith in Su Yu.

The stone chamber fell silent instantly.

Su Yu also spoke calmly as he explained the reason.

"My parents are not from this land."

Five years ago, a spacetime rift appeared above Black City. My parents were swept into this world by the turbulence and fell victim to the evil forces.

"As for me, because my parents were not indigenous, I was born with spiritual roots."

Upon hearing the words "space-time rift," Lieutenant Li Xiaotian's expression changed drastically.

He suddenly stood up and stared intently at Su Yu.

"Xiao Tian, ​​you know?"

Li Zizai turned to look at him.

Li Xiaotian swallowed and nodded.

"Chief, I once heard my great-grandfather say that our Li family ancestors were not originally from this world."

"My great-great-great-great-grandfather fell here through a spacetime rift."

"He left a few words in his journal, saying that he was once a cultivator at the great perfection of the ninth level of Qi Refining!"

Li Xiaotian glanced at Su Yu and continued.

"However, the spacetime turbulence is extremely unstable, and those who can survive by passing through the rifts are basically low-level cultivators below the Foundation Establishment stage."

"This is a secret known only to the head of one of the very few ancient families in Black City."

Li Xiaotian's words completely endorsed Su Yu's background.

The doubts within the stone chamber subsided.

The leaders' disdain turned to shock as they re-examined the five-year-old child.

If he is a legendary cultivator, then he is indeed worthy of attention.

only……

"Sigh, even if you really are a cultivator..."

One of the leaders sighed with a wry smile.

"At five years old, even if you started cultivating in the womb, how much skill could you possibly acquire?"

Another lieutenant also shook his head, his face full of dejection.

"The evil spirits have entrenched themselves in this land for countless years, their influence deeply entrenched and widespread. Even the emperor is nothing more than their lackey..."

They didn't laugh at Su Yu; they only felt a sense of powerlessness at being toyed with by fate.

Su Yu listened to these words with a calm expression.

He raised his head and gave the most impeccable and unifying reason.

"The spiritual energy of this world has been corrupted by demonic energy, and the Dao of Heaven is dead."

Su Yu's voice was calm, yet it carried a grand sense of destiny.

"But I was born here with pure spiritual roots from another world."

"The last remaining trace of the Heavenly Dao's will in this world complied with my birth."

"Everything in my mind is the final counterattack of Heaven in a desperate situation."

"I am destiny!"

The childish voice echoed in the stone chamber.

Su Yu knew very well that he was facing a group of mortals who were waiting to die in the mud, whose backbones had long been broken by evil spirits.

Reasoning with them is useless.

Presenting the facts is useless.

Because the truth is, evil is invincible, and mortals have no hope.

To get a group of zombies to willingly go to their deaths and pave the way with their blood and flesh is unrealistic.

Only faith!

Only by creating gods!

A five-year-old cultivator is indeed a joke.

But the savior sent down by Heaven is the only light in the darkness.

Inside the stone chamber, no one spoke.

The word "destiny" was too grand, so grand that they didn't know how to respond for a moment.

letter?

A five-year-old child stood there, saying he was destiny.

Normally, saying this would be laughable.

But the person who said these words was a cultivator who shouldn't exist in this world.

Just then, Li Zizai understood and stepped forward.

His voice was a little hoarse, but it conveyed an unprecedented firmness.

"Last night, the immortal master appeared in my dream and taught me a cultivation technique."

"Its name is, 'The Method of Self-Isolation for Mortals'!"

Then, Li Zizai recounted his experience in the dream and the fact that there was a trace of innate pure energy in his body without reservation.

He then solemnly introduced the method of mortal self-mutilation.
