Through the 20s

Everyone witnessed an absurd, one-sided beating.

In a vacuum space occupied only by those two, a mighty expert of the Tribulation Passage realm was grabbed by the collar and brutally pummeled by a junior in the Soul Severing realm. There were no magic spells, no flashy moves. Fang Zhiyi simply threw punch after punch right into the face of the Black Fire Sect's Sect Master.

He literally beat the old man until his defenses completely crumbled.

"I was wrong! I was wrong!" the old man screamed, his voice tearing from his lungs.

"Did you hear what he just yelled?" Fang Zhiyi grabbed his robes again and forcibly dragged him up from the ground.

"I heard it, he did it!" Talented disciples were a dime a dozen; if one was gone, he could just find another. If he let this madman keep beating him, even if he didn't die, he would lose every last shred of his dignity!

After all, he was a mighty expert of the Tribulation Passage realm. The moment they exchanged blows, he realized that the Soul Severing junior before him had hidden at least two—no, three major realms of cultivation!

Although he didn't understand it, he submitted.

Fang Zhiyi became famous once again. Every sect now knew that the man behind the Disciplinary Hall had made his appearance. Not only did he kill a disciple who tried to stir up trouble with the Disciplinary Hall, but he also beat up a Sect Master in the Tribulation Passage realm!

For a time, the Disciplinary Hall's reputation soared once more.

"That kid ran away," Little Hei sighed. "I told you we should have dealt with him first. Now look, we've alerted the snake by beating the grass."

It was talking about Wang Xiaojia. Wang Xiaojia was very cunning. He had always felt that Fang Zhiyi was abnormal, so he constantly kept himself hidden. As soon as the news of Fang Zhiyi making a move spread, Wang Xiaojia quickly analyzed the situation. Because he was also a transmigrator, figuring out the identity of the dead cultivator was not a difficult task for him.

Once he figured it out, Wang Xiaojia slipped away.

He had no confidence in dealing with Fang Zhiyi.

However, he didn't expect the Disciplinary Hall to subsequently announce a piece of news to the entire cultivation world, causing a massive uproar.

The cultivation world had been invaded by Otherworldly Demons. The characteristics of these Otherworldly Demons were suddenly going from having terrible aptitude to phenomenal aptitude, experiencing an inexplicable surge in cultivation, possessing high-quality spiritual treasures despite low cultivation, frequently muttering to themselves for no reason, and sometimes even undergoing drastic personality changes, harboring a fondness for slapping the faces of fellow disciples they previously had poor relationships with.

Even the dead disciple from the Black Fire Sect was confirmed to be an Otherworldly Demon.

Most importantly, these foreign fiends would forcibly possess the bodies of original cultivators, using methods even more terrifying than demonic cultivators to gain power, and even steal the karmic luck of the Heavenly Dao!

Stone was a bit bewildered. Uh... putting it that way, Senior Brother Fang also fit the image of an Otherworldly Demon quite well.

But then he slapped himself. How could that be! How could Senior Brother Fang be that kind of person!

Little Hei despised Fang Zhiyi's shameless behavior, but Fang Zhiyi didn't care at all. He never said he wasn't one; if people thought he was, they could just come and try to kill him!

Naturally, no one came to question him, but the information about the Otherworldly Demons spread like wildfire. Soon, many people began to suspect each other.

A wave of investigations into Otherworldly Demons swept through the cultivation world. When an originally obedient disciple of the Purple Cloud Sect suddenly went berserk, injured an elder, and absconded, it further proved that the news Fang Zhiyi released was true.

To Fang Zhiyi's surprise, this world actually hid quite a few transmigrators, and their systems were incredibly varied. Facing requests for help from other sects, he refused none. In just two years, five transmigrators fell into his hands one after another: some outer sect junior sister, a mighty female lead colluding with demonic cultivators, a morally upright junior brother, and so on...

Fang Zhiyi felt a headache coming on. This world was truly riddled with transmigrators.

"Hey, you don't have to run around anymore," Little Hei suddenly laughed just as Fang Zhiyi returned to his territory and sat down to rest.

Fang Zhiyi opened his eyes and looked outside the door. Four figures slowly walked in, while his subordinates had already died silently outside.

"Fang Zhiyi, you didn't expect this, did you? That we would join forces," Zhang Xiaojia smiled sinisterly. "You... are also a transmigrator, right?"

Fang Zhiyi looked at him expressionlessly.

"No, he isn't. He doesn't even have a system. Even if he is, he's a pathetic transmigrator. To think there are still people who transmigrate without a system these days, hahaha," a man mocked.

"What exactly are you guys after?" Fang Zhiyi suddenly sighed.

The transmigrators looked at each other and let out a burst of sneers.

"Since we've transmigrated, of course we want to do whatever we please. The things you people need to slowly cultivate to obtain, we just get directly from our systems by completing tasks. Consider it a little shock for you people, a shock from technology."

"We've discussed it. After we kill you, the four of us will divide the cultivation world equally. From now on, we will be the Four Heavenly Kings of the cultivation world!"

"...Technology?" Fang Zhiyi stood up.

"Cut the crap! Watch this!" One person attacked directly, unleashing a killing move right off the bat. A massive sword aura tore through the floor tiles all the way, slashing straight toward Fang Zhiyi.

Fang Zhiyi didn't dodge. He merely raised his hand and waved it gently, abruptly stopping the earth-shattering sword aura right in front of him.

"Originally, I had no grievances with you, but... those people were acting under my banner, yet they died by your hands. That is unacceptable," Fang Zhiyi said lightly, though he exuded a thick murderous intent.

"Cultivation is all about strength! They were all of mediocre aptitude; if they die, they die!"

"What a claim of mediocre aptitude... Weren't you also ordinary people before you came here? You call others mediocre, but they climbed up from the mortal realm step by step relying on their own mediocre aptitude. Your strength, however, was just handed to you."

Fang Zhiyi walked slowly forward amidst their fierce attacks. With every step he took, the faces of the transmigrators darkened a fraction more.

"System! Didn't you say I was practically invincible now?"

"Could he be in the Mahayana realm? No, even if he is in the Mahayana realm, I have a one-hit kill! System!"

"System?"

"What makes you think that my cultivation, painstakingly achieved over several lifetimes, would lose to a bunch of quick-fix products like you who rose to power relying on some system? Why is it that you don't have to put in any effort, while I have to suffer time and time again?" Fang Zhiyi slowly raised his hand, then pressed it down fiercely. "Just thinking about it pisses me off."

The transmigrators immediately felt a tremendous pressure descending from the sky. The roof, previously torn apart by their attacks, instantly shattered completely, and they all fell to their knees.

"How is this possible! System! Where is my Ancient Sacred Body!" one of them spat blood from his nose and mouth.

Little Hei was a bit dissatisfied, feeling as if Fang Zhiyi was implicitly jabbing at it just now.

Meanwhile, only Zhang Xiaojia remained silent. His system had hidden itself inside his brain, its fear currently beyond words.

"No, no, Host, there is a Devourer behind that man!" The image it saw was much more direct than what the transmigrator could see. Behind Fang Zhiyi towered a massive black monster. Every time the monster's tentacles shot out, a system was devoured. If it hadn't hidden fast enough, it probably would have been finished too!
