Jiang Che moved swiftly.
In just two weeks, he completed a large-scale transformation of his company.
He invested heavily (800,000 points) to purchase 1,200 acres of low-grade spiritual farmland and spent millions more on a vast quantity of medicinal herb seeds.
At the same time, news of Yuanche Pharmaceutical's rebranding quickly spread.
The announcement caused an uproar.
If Yuanche Pharmaceutical had changed its name to anything else, it might not have drawn much attention. But renaming it to "Yuanche Pill Supply Co., Ltd." was deeply intriguing!
Yuanche Pharmaceutical becoming Yuanche Pill Supply Co., Ltd.—was there a problem with that?
Pills were still medicine, so it wasn’t exactly a career change!
And right then, the company dropped a bombshell announcement:
[Our company has mastered mature pill-refining techniques and can mass-produce low-tier pills. Production is expected to begin in a month, with offerings including Qi-Gathering Pills, Foundation-Building Pills, Blood-Qi Pills, and 69 other types of low-tier pills.]
[Methods to obtain pills include: completing national security missions, achieving high scores in major cultivator exams, joining the Cultivator Association to receive monthly stipends...]
Pills!
While the world was still adjusting to the concept of cultivation, Jiang Che had already laid out all the groundwork.
He systematized cultivation, monopolized cultivation resources, and became an oligarch. Want to grow stronger? Then come work for him!
In the future, cultivation academies would be established nationwide, with rigorous exams to filter out the most elite talents.
Without a doubt, those would be the chosen ones—the children of destiny!
And then, he could reap benefits from these chosen ones, earning points hand over fist. It was a guaranteed profit!
Jiang Che never made losing deals.
What kind of villain these days still stepped forward to clash head-on with the chosen ones?
Sitting at home, points rained from the sky—and the chosen ones would even praise him, calling him "Righteous Young Master Jiang."
...
"Holy crap, what happened while I was asleep? They’ve even rolled out pills now?"
"Seriously? I’m still struggling to grasp cultivation, and you’re already supplying pills?"
"How do we get these pills? And has Yuanche Group merged with a state-owned enterprise?"
"Take on missions! The official website has posted tons of tasks. With the spiritual energy revival, some people are misusing their newfound power, and there are also missions to explore forbidden zones..."
"I’m at Qi Refining Stage 3—any experts want to team up for a mission? I just want to try a pill~~~"
Once spiritual energy revived, the global landscape would inevitably shift.
Those with higher cultivation would inevitably abuse their power for wrongdoing. But Jiang Che’s move to control cultivation resources... silently balanced the scales.
Everyone was practicing the "Human Emperor Scripture." Even if you had slightly better talent... could you really compete with those popping pills like candy?
The truly monstrously powerful individuals were basically all chosen ones—destiny’s darlings. At worst, they might be a bit foolish, but they wouldn’t commit outright atrocities.
Jiang Che acted fast, but everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.
...
Jiang Ruoxu was forcibly enrolled in the Cultivation Academy by Old Man Jiang, becoming part of its first batch of students—earning the nickname "Big Senior Brother."
[Holy shit??? A fully automated pill furnace?!]
As a visitor, Jiang Ruoxu’s younger cousin followed him to Jiang Che’s pill-refining facility.
Of course, Jiang Che’s main target wasn’t Jiang Ruoxu—it was his ring-bound master, Mo Lianxing.
It was time to hit this ungrateful fairy sister with a dose of system-induced awe.
"Master... what’s a fully automated pill furnace?"
The little cousin was utterly baffled.
Before them stood a towering furnace—nothing like the alchemical cauldrons from legends of the Supreme Old Lord. This one looked straight out of a sci-fi movie.
Mo Lianxing was stunned.
[Disciple, this is a fully automated pill furnace. Even in the Nine Heavens, it’s considered strategic equipment. It was invented by a chosen one from the Destiny Society—just input the herbs and adjust the parameters, and it can churn out tens of thousands of pills in one go, massively boosting efficiency...]
Through the soul-nurturing ring, Mo Lianxing gazed at the towering furnace, overwhelmed with melancholy.
[After the automated pill furnace was invented, low-tier alchemists across the Nine Heavens lost their jobs overnight! Though I despise the Destiny Society... I have to admit, they have many formidable figures, especially in the Heaven Pavilion...]
At the mention of the Destiny Society, a trace of fear flickered in Mo Lianxing’s eyes.
"Damn, that’s insane?"
Jiang Ruoxu shuddered involuntarily. He had planned to grow stronger slowly, storm the Nine Heavens, and slaughter every last member of the Destiny Society to avenge his master!
But now... well... maybe the revenge plan could wait.
Beside them, Jiang Che wore a faint smile the entire time.
The "Truth-Seeker" skill was incredibly useful—he had eavesdropped on every encrypted exchange between Jiang Ruoxu and Mo Lianxing.
He’d even heard their inner thoughts loud and clear.
"Little Li, you can all leave now. I have something to discuss..." Jiang Che dismissed all the company staff around him.
Inside the ring, Mo Lianxing exhaled softly, her eyes alight with excitement and anticipation.
Jiang Che had cleared the area—his target was obviously her!
The next moment, her figure drifted out of the soul-nurturing ring.
But this time, Mo Lianxing had changed her attire. She had previously worn a white robe, radiating an ethereal grace.
However, after seeing Jiang Che’s stunningly beautiful master, her Dao heart nearly shattered—that woman also wore white, but her icy, transcendent aura and world-toppling beauty were leagues beyond Mo Lianxing’s reach.
To avoid embarrassment, she switched to a black ancient-style outfit, cinched at the waist with a sash, her hair tied back simply.
The woman bowed slightly upon seeing Jiang Che. "Young Master Jiang!"
Jiang Che nodded lightly. "We meet again, Lady Mo."
Mo Lianxing lifted her gaze, her curiosity about this young man burning fiercely. She wanted nothing more than to tie him up in a dark room, whip him, and force out every last secret in his heart...
But then she remembered Jiang Che’s mysterious and terrifyingly powerful master behind the scenes. Nope, not worth the risk!
Jiang Che raised an eyebrow.
Ungrateful woman—after I gave you a top-grade Soul-Nurturing Pill, you still want to lock me up and whip me?
Well... if it’s a fairy sister doing it... maybe it’s not so bad.
"Lady Mo’s soul seems much more stable now."
Mo Lianxing hurriedly replied, "Indeed, all thanks to your Soul-Nurturing Pill, Young Master Jiang. Without it, I might have already returned to the heavens."
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
