Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System

Chapter 560 - 479: Now I Lack Nothing!

As Chen Nuoyi asked this tricky question, the atmosphere on the scene turned awkward for a moment.

Su Yuan cleared his throat lightly and said:

"Nuoyi, don’t blurt out such blunt truths... Besides, the situation isn’t that urgent anymore. At most, I’ll just draw a little bit of power from the people, not going too far."

Heh, it’s too late to regret now.

The people of the world aren’t fools. Who borrowed their swords, who caused the demon race’s potential to plummet, who devoured massive amounts of colleagues, and who slaughtered billions of people—everyone will soon figure it out.

By then, it’s easy to imagine what the reputation of the Primordial Sect will become.

Thinking of how, in the near future, they would live amidst the curses of the people in the Taixu World, Chen Nuoyi couldn’t help but dig out a three-room one-hall with her toes.

The only consolation was that this was the Illusion Realm World, not reality.

The young girl sighed softly; after all, who made her the Vice Sect Leader of the Primordial Sect?

After defeating the final boss, the members of the Hero Squad returned to their respective regions to maintain the stability of the Three Domains.

Su Yuan returned to the headquarters of the Primordial Sect and, under the protection of Zhu Qingqing, Chen Nuoyi, and others, began preparing for Nascent Soul Formation.

Before going into seclusion, he returned the powers granted by the Purple Gold Dragon Venerable and the Reincarnation Celestial Monarch, ensuring the purity of his own origin.

Inside the quiet chamber.

Su Yuan sat cross-legged on a mat, not rushing to cultivate but first opening the system panel to claim the mission rewards.

[Mission Reward: Demon Technique·Tiger (Level 5) (Claimed)]

The next second, an ocean of knowledge surged into Su Yuan’s mind, and he quickly grasped all the key points of the technique.

This was the sole Fifth Level Demon Technique he currently possessed, finally revealing its mysterious veil to him.

First of all, it was confirmed that Demon Technique·Tiger was indeed part of the Ten Demon Fingers series.

However, it didn’t inherently include any offensive, defensive, or supportive effects.

Its sole effect was to harmonize the other nine demon fingers, fusing the Ten Demon Fingers into a single fist!

As for why it was named ’Tiger’?

The first thought that came to Su Yuan’s mind was a certain animation from his past life where a Tiger Talisman harmonized Yin and Yang.

The effects between the two were strikingly similar.

Could it be that the system borrowed this concept?

However, he quickly dismissed this notion.

The Ten Demon Fingers were not originally created by the system; they had existed since the Ancient Cultivation Realm, even in earlier times when people didn’t have the means to watch animations.

Su Yuan speculated that the name ’Demon Technique·Tiger’ was derived from the image of the ’tiger’s mouth’ in a human hand.

As the most crucial point of power in the palm, losing the tiger’s mouth would cost a hand at least over fifty percent of its gripping power.

With the assistance of the tiger’s mouth, the fingers can perfectly form a fist to strike the enemy, which sounds quite reasonable.

So, this time the mission reward didn’t lie in Demon Technique·Tiger itself, but in its ability to drive the other nine demon fingers.

But here came the problem—each of the Ten Demon Fingers had different effects, excelled in different fields. How could these ten diverse demon techniques be merged?

After digesting the function of Demon Technique·Tiger, Su Yuan found the answer.

The answer was to become the Saint Master!

Demon Technique·Finger Spirit allowed him to absorb the essence and talent of living beings.

Demon Technique·Finger Fate allowed him to see through and alter the fate of targets.

Demon Technique·Finger Weapon made his weapons invincible.

Demon Technique·Finger Body freed him from the afflictions of illness.

Demon Technique·Finger Talisman allowed him to imprint the Ten Demon Fingers on his body, turning them into instincts.

Demon Technique·Finger Beast gave him dominion over all beings less intelligent than him.

Demon Technique·Finger Technique allowed him to distort the perceptions and commonsense of the wise.

Demon Technique·Finger Union allowed him to integrate the strengths of others for his own use.

Demon Technique·Finger Array made it impossible for any array to trap him.

Demon Technique·Tiger harmonized all the Ten Demon Fingers together.

Not just harmonizing, with the help of Demon Technique·Tiger, Su Yuan could even perform the ’misappropriation of funds’ operation.

Take Demon Technique·Finger Spirit, for example.

Being only a Second Level technique, it often felt inadequate in certain scenarios.

But now, Su Yuan could enhance Demon Technique·Finger Spirit by borrowing levels from other demon techniques, allowing it to exhibit effects of Fourth or even Fifth Level.

"In summary, I can imprint the power of the Ten Demon Fingers into my bloodline, turning them into my instincts, using multiple abilities with just a thought."

"Moreover, I don’t need to painstakingly level up the Ten Demon Fingers one by one; their levels are interchangeable."

"Of course, only the levels are interchangeable; getting new technique effects still requires upgrading."

Su Yuan commented.

Just the interchangeability of levels makes the fusion of the Ten Demon Fingers unquestionably practical.

Su Yuan even wanted to stand up right now and say, "I lack nothing."

However, recalling the ominous outcomes after the Saint Master said this, Su Yuan ultimately did not voice it.

In the following week, Su Yuan devoted himself to fusing the Ten Demon Fingers, deeply imprinting the effects of these demon techniques into his body.

In the realm of demon techniques, Su Yuan had always been extraordinarily gifted, so he completed the task within just a week.

By this point, theoretically, if he were to ’misappropriate funds,’ the effects of the Ten Demon Fingers could influence a Divinity Transformation Cultivator.

But this was just theoretical; if his own cultivation did not improve, everything would be empty talk.

For example, if Su Yuan dared to use the Ten Demon Fingers on a Divinity Transformation Cultivator, failure would be the best outcome.

If he succeeded by chance, he would end up as a dried corpse.

Unless he could possess more than ten percent of a Divinity Transformation Cultivator’s Spiritual Power reserves, he couldn’t even attempt to leverage his limited strength to affect greater outcomes.

However, this was no easy feat.

After all, there was a chasm between Divinity Transformation and Nascent Soul Cultivators, perhaps only a Nascent Soul Cultivator of Wu Luo True Monarch’s level could barely reach that threshold.

But Su Yuan had no intention of achieving everything at once; after fusing the Ten Demon Fingers, he focused on steadily accumulating his foundations.

He diligently refined the branches of the Primordial Dao, converting the immense knowledge within into resources on his path in the Immortal Dao.

For instance, the skill Celestial Lock that came with this branch, he could now wield it as easily as using his own arm.

In fact, this Divine Technique wasn’t originally called Celestial Lock; its real name was ’Primordial Lock.’

Su Yuan took the liberty of renaming it to ’Primordial Lock,’ which suited his name better.

Once all preparations were complete, only the final step remained!

Nascent Soul Formation!

On this day, three Divinity Transformation Cultivators arrived together to protect Su Yuan!
