[With the Myriad Soul Banner in hand, you manipulate hundreds of demon souls to fiercely battle the endless stream of demons surging toward you.]
[Thanks to the "Alien Race's Daddy" trait, even the Golden Body Realm demons appearing here pose absolutely no threat to you.]
[With the demon souls covering your flanks, you unleash a set of high-tier martial arts, the "Crimson Heart Fist," onto the demons. Every punch is a critical hit, and those fragile demons are even blown to pieces by a single punch from you!]
[Before long, you are covered in demon blood. The mutilated corpses of demons continuously pile up around you, and you stand higher and higher on the pile of bodies.]
[However, the demons in this area seem absolutely determined this time, refusing to rest until they eliminate you.]
[No matter how many demons have already died in battle, they still charge forward wave after wave.]
[You don't waste the demons you've killed, either. With a wave of the Myriad Soul Banner, they are all taken into the banner to become brothers-in-arms!]
[Black mist billows, and corpses choke the valley.]
[Sporting half a head of red hair, in this atmosphere, your villainous aura is maxed out.]
["Charge, brothers! If this man is not eliminated, we will never have peace!!"]
["Don't fear death! Carve out a bloody path for our descendants!"]
["For the Golden-Furred Rat King!!"]
["We want to live!!!"]
[The demons are so heroic that you are moved, and your fists strike even harder.]
[As time passes, even with the "Older and Wiser" trait ensuring your stamina doesn't decline despite your age, a human's stamina is ultimately limited.]
[On the demons' side, more Golden Body Realm and even Spirit Sea Realm experts join the fray one after another!]
[Even with the Myriad Soul Banner and golden traits, continuously fighting so many demons with higher cultivation realms than yours is a bit too much to ask of you.]
[Unfortunately, you can't run even if you want to.]
[The only exit to the valley is completely blocked by a herd of tank-like ox demons, leaving you with no choice but to keep fighting.]
[A group of demon experts has you completely surrounded.]
[At this moment, you stand atop a pile of demon corpses over ten meters high, holding the Myriad Soul Banner in one hand and a chipped Flame Iron Heavy Sword in the other.]
[Your body is entirely covered in blood and filth, some belonging to the demons, and some your own.]
["Come on!!!"]
[The Golden-Furred Rat King looks at the countless corpses, then at its almost exterminated large family of rat demons, and its heart bleeds.]
[You, this human, are too terrifying!]
[It's not like they haven't encountered martial artists who came to the Eastern Wasteland to hunt demons, but someone as hard to kill as you is simply unprecedented!]
[Fortunately, under the demon-sea tactic, they have managed to exhaust you to the point of collapse.]
[Just one more charge, and you will definitely be finished.]
[The Myriad Soul Banner makes sarcastic remarks from the side.]
["Buddy, you're not doing so well. If I had known this would happen, you might as well have given your vital energy to me."]
["Screw you..."]
[Right at this moment, you hear an echoing voice coming from the top of the cliff.]
["Brother of the demonic path, I've been watching you for quite a while. You clearly only have a Soul Tempering Realm cultivation, so how can you make these demons find you so troublesome?"]
[You look up.]
[You see a handsome and free-spirited young man.]
[He is half-lying, half-sitting at the top of the cliff. A longsword is stabbed into the ground beside him, and he carries two more swords on his back.]
[His white clothes flutter in the wind, giving him an otherworldly aura.]
[You shout upwards.]
["Little brother! Although I hold the Myriad Soul Banner, I am not of the demonic path! I am just a demon slayer traveling the world!"]
[You wonder if he will refuse to save you because you might be of the demonic path, or if he will choose to lend a hand to a fellow human.]
[You know you cannot judge a person's strength by their appearance.]
[Some experts take pills like the Youth Retaining Pill, which preserves their appearance.]
[Someone who can travel so casually through the Eastern Wasteland is definitely no weakling.]
[Seeing that an extra person has appeared at the scene at some unknown point, the Golden-Furred Rat King immediately orders the Golden Body and Spirit Sea Realm demons to launch their final wave of attacks against you.]
["Attack! Kill him!!"]
[You grip your chipped longsword tightly as demon souls flutter around you, preparing to fight with your last ounce of strength and end your life in this battle.]
[Right at this moment.]
[A precious sword flies through the air, landing at your feet and steadily lifting you up. It then carries you into the air, flying out of the valley from above.]
[Some bird demons try to chase you.]
[But the longsword beneath your feet merely vibrates slightly, and imperceptible sword qi shoots out, shaving the bird demons completely bald without actually harming them.]
[Birds without feathers cannot fly, and they plummet down with thuds.]
[With a burst of speed from the flying sword, you feel the surrounding scenery change rapidly, and you arrive at a mountain peak.]
[The young man from earlier is standing right here.]
["Thank you for the rescue, little brother! I, Chen Yi, will never forget your life-saving grace!"]
[The young man waves his hand nonchalantly.]
["Whether you are of the righteous or demonic path, you are ultimately a fellow human. Seeing that your Myriad Soul Banner contains only demon souls and no human souls, I can trust you a little."]
[Actually, there are human souls, such as Landlord Zhang and the like.]
[But these useless soul bodies have already been converted into soul power by the Myriad Soul Banner, feeding back into your cultivation and providing energy for the Myriad Soul Banner to heal itself.]
["May I know your esteemed name and sect? I must visit another day to express my gratitude."]
[The young man smiles.]
["I am merely an ordinary disciple of the Limitless Sword Sect. There is no need for a formal visit to express gratitude. We martial artists shouldn't get bogged down by such red tape."]
[You feel that this young man's actual age shouldn't be small; his way of speaking doesn't sound like an inexperienced youth.]
["Little brother, I see your cultivation is not low. Why didn't you just kill those demons earlier?"]
["There are certain agreements between the human race and the demon race. I cannot break the rules, otherwise it would give the demons an excuse to provoke large-scale conflicts."]
[Agreements?]
[Previously, when the Crimson Heart Sect was destroyed, a swordsman standing on a giant sword also mentioned something about an "agreement between the two races" to that Azure Dragon.]
[Could it be that this young man is a big shot on the same level as the Azure Dragon and the giant sword swordsman?]
["Speaking of which, do you perhaps have some special physique that counters demons? Even with the Myriad Soul Banner helping you, being able to deal with so many demons, including those with higher cultivation realms than you, is simply too miraculous."]
[You play along.]
["Yes, I do have a special physique. I call it... the Demon Nemesis!"]
[The young man smiles.]
["What a Demon Nemesis. It's a pity you only have low-tier bone structure. Being able to cultivate to the Soul Tempering Realm is already not easy. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to make any further breakthroughs in this life; otherwise, the balance between the two races would be broken by your hands."]
[Perhaps out of respect for your special physique, the young man gives you a jade token.]
[He says that in critical moments, you can inject spiritual energy into it to call for help.]
[Nearby members of the Limitless Sword Sect will sense it, and they will naturally rush over to assist.]
"This is truly a good item. I've got myself a powerful backer!"
Chen Yi figures that from now on, his simulated self will have a much easier time collecting demon souls.
If he can't win a fight, he can just call for reinforcements!
And it was none other than the number one sword sect of the Five Domains, the Wuji Sword Sect!

uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
