【Seeing the fate of the Flame-Iron Heavy Sword, the Cold-Glow Overlord Spear decided to "follow its heart" and cower.】
【"Master, I was only jesting with you just now."】
【You place the Cold-Glow Overlord Spear back onto your back.】
【"Behave yourself! Don't go believing everything people say just because they sweet-talk you!"】
【"Master is right."】
【Against sentient artifacts, the "Father of Non-Humans" trait is incredibly effective.】
【If an artifact has gained intelligence, what is it if not a non-human race?】
【You are confident that you can capture the Myriad Soul Banner once again.】
【"To think you actually triggered an artifact sentience crisis. Oh, Myriad Soul Banner, Myriad Soul Banner, you really are something. But don't think for a second you can escape the palm of my hand!"】
【The Myriad Soul Banner utilized the mysterious energy of the earth veins to forcibly awaken the sentience of artifacts across the world, allowing even low-level artifacts that should never have birthed a spirit to possess self-awareness.】
【At the same time, as an Immortal Artifact exceptionally skilled in soul manipulation, its highly inflammatory speech planted a seed of thought that bordered on brainwashing in the minds of the world's artifacts.】
【Must artifacts always follow humans? Why can't they be independent?】
【These artifacts had only just gained intelligence and were still very naive.】
【The Myriad Soul Banner's deception caused the majority of artifacts to turn on the spot, deserting their masters, much like Chen Yi's Flame-Iron Heavy Sword and Cold-Glow Overlord Spear.】
【From the scents picked up by "Treasure-Hunting Nose," you discern that the earth vein has disappeared, likely moving beyond the range of your detection.】
【However, the Myriad Soul Banner is still here.】
【And so, it fled, you pursued, and it was doomed.】
【"Why are you always chasing me!!"】
【"Immortal Artifact Myriad Soul Banner, you belong to me, Chen Yi. You aren't going anywhere!"】
【"Enough! We've already broken up! From now on, the world is wide, and we shall each walk our own path!"】
【Without a physical vessel, the spirit of the Myriad Soul Banner couldn't unleash any of its lethal moves.】
【When you finally caught up to it, it simply gave up, floating there and refusing to move another inch.】
【"Come on then, catch me. Heh, you can't actually touch me, can you, buddy?"】
【"Do you really think I have no way to deal with spiritual entities?"】
【"Otherwise?"】
【"Da Chun!"】
【The Myriad Soul Banner looked up.】
【A massive object, large enough to blot out the sun and sky, came crashing down.】
【Myriad Soul Banner: "What are you doing??"】
【Da Chun: "Cauldron Suppressing the Nine Provinces!!"】
【Da Chun had been gorging on peaches within the small world of the Nine Provinces Cauldron lately and had managed to grow a bit more of a brain.】
【It had realized several new ways to use the Nine Provinces Cauldron.】
【The Nine Provinces Cauldron spiraled down, its myriad divine lights blanketing the sky and earth, enveloping the spirit of the Myriad Soul Banner within.】
【These lights, filled with divinity, made the dark-hearted Myriad Soul Banner extremely uncomfortable, rendering it unable to escape.】
【With a Great Dao Immortal Artifact pressing down on it, the Myriad Soul Banner was immobilized, looking like Sun Wukong trapped beneath the Five Elements Mountain.】
【Boom!!】
【The giant cauldron landed, shaking the very foundations of the earth.】
【With a cold expression, you walk up to the mass of black spiritual energy.】
【"Either submit, or be reduced to nothingness!"】
【The Myriad Soul Banner remained stubborn.】
【"Chen Yi, you brat! Even if you can suppress me, you cannot destroy me! I am a grand Immortal Artifact!!"】
【You wasted no more words.】
【"Da Chun, refine him."】
【The Myriad Soul Banner was stunned.】
【"This big idiot even knows how to refine things?"】
【You replied with an amused smirk.】
【"That's a funny thing to say. It is a cauldron; shouldn't cooking things be its most basic function? I may not have a way to deal with spirits, but for a grand Great Dao Immortal Artifact to refine an artifact spirit, isn't it as easy as turning over a hand?"】
【Da Chun's honest, simple voice drifted over.】
【"Wait a moment, Brother Yi. I'll refine him into a pill to give you a boost."】
【Sensing a powerful suction force dragging it into the cauldron, the Myriad Soul Banner finally began to panic.】
【"You big idiot! Don't lie to people! Your artifact spirit is incomplete; how could you possibly have the strength to refine the spirit of an Immortal Artifact?!"】
【"But you aren't a full Immortal Artifact either, Uncle Myriad."】
【"Hiss—damn it, I forgot about that part!"】
【The Myriad Soul Banner was indeed an Immortal Artifact, but it had been heavily damaged in the past and had yet to recover to its peak condition.】
【"Why won't you betray Chen Yi! Did you not hear a single word I said earlier?!"】
【"What is betrayal?"】
【The Myriad Soul Banner was left speechless!】
【It was over. This one was a complete idiot; it couldn't be enlightened at all!】
【The Myriad Soul Banner let out a hollow laugh.】
【"Haha, buddy! We're all brothers here, let's talk this out reasonably..."】
【Although the Myriad Soul Banner always wore a mask and never treated anyone with sincerity, you had spent decades with him in a previous simulation and understood him deeply.】
【He was different from other artifacts; he was more like a human, possessed by a strong desire for survival.】
【As long as his "life" was truly threatened, he would naturally compromise.】
【"I know, your natural talent is low, and you need me to refine souls to feed your cultivation, right? Fine, fine, ten years! I'll help you for ten years!"】
【"Da Chun, keep going."】
【"Wait, wait, wait! Twenty years! Twenty years! Twenty years is long enough. How many twenty-year periods does a man have in his life!"】
【"Da Chun..."】
【"Fine! Stop calling for Da Chun! Just tell me, how long do you want me to help you!"】
【"A lifetime."】
【"You..."】
【The Myriad Soul Banner was doing the math.】
【Artifacts have no concept of a lifespan.】
【Once he outlived you, he would be free.】
【But the problem was...】
【"Damn your ancestors! I went through all that trouble to awaken the artifacts of the world, just to stir up chaos and seize the chance to become the Lord of All Artifacts! After all that, I, the Lord of All Artifacts, am still stuck working for you! Which artifact would ever follow me now?!"】
【You asked with total indifference.】
【"To be, or not to be?"】
【This was the question that troubled the Myriad Soul Banner.】
【In the end, he chose to be.】
【"I really can't beat this Great Dao Immortal Artifact!"】
【"Hmph, a day without a beating and you're back to your old tricks! You met me in this life, so your 'blessings' are still to come. You still want to run?"】
【The Myriad Soul Banner wailed to the heavens.】
【"I can grant the world's artifacts independence and let them control their own fates! Yet I cannot control my own! O vast heavens, why have you treated me so cruelly!"】
【"Enough, hurry it up! You've caused such a massive mess this time; who knows how far the fallout will reach. We don't have time to waste here!"】
【After the spirit returned to its vessel, the Myriad Soul Banner was restored to its original state.】
【Following this, the fellow who usually never stopped talking was actually so depressed that he didn't say a word for several months.】
【No matter, give him some time to settle his heart.】
【Riding Black Wind, with the Cold-Glow Overlord Spear on your back and the Myriad Soul Banner and Nine Provinces Cauldron hidden within you, you head for your next stop.】
【The Infinite Sword Sect!】
【You need to show your face before the Sword Master, demonstrate your high-level demon-slaying skills, and have him leave a mark on you.】
【Once the Sword Master feels it is time for you to take the stage, he will come looking for you and bring you peaches to eat.】
【Year Four, twenty-two years old.】
【Drawing a new trait...】
【Draw successful!】
【"Materialist Warrior" (Golden Legend):】
【The Master did not speak of the strange, the chaotic, or the supernatural!】
【All non-material energy entities, spiritual bodies, soul bodies, and the like can be treated as physical matter by you, allowing you to strike them directly.】
At the same time, you are immune to any non-physical attacks inflicted by such entities!
There are no ghosts in this world. If there are, then just blow them apart with a single punch!!]

agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life.

However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too.
