My Cultivation Prowess Peaks after I Buried the Great Emperor’s Corpse

Stumbled Upon an Affair

Lin Wudao sat in the Lotus position in his Star Seizer Courtyard.

Soon after, he opened his system panel.

[ Name: Lin Wudao ]

[ Identity: Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall ]

[ Cultivation: Mid-stage of Divine Transformation realm ]

[ Cultivation Technique: Emperor’s Scripture of the Primordial Imperial Race ]

[ Skills: Brutal Dragon Palm (small success), Xuantian Ancient Sword Technique (upper class), So Close Yet So Far (upper class), Great Thunderbolt Palm, Thunder Blade Technique ]

[ Items: Origin Stone, heaven burial bronze coffin, corpse map, Xuantian Ancient Sword, longevity spiritual medicine, one-third of Dragon Burial Map, ten-thousand-year Red Fruit, grade-eight magic pill, Xuanming Blade ]

[ Lifespan: 12736 years ]

[ Fate Energy value: 10100 ]

…

New information was presented before his eyes!

Compared to the past, it had already undergone tremendous changes.

Lin Wudao was very satisfied!

After a moment’s silence, he called Han Qingshan over.

“Young Master, you were looking for me?”

“That’s right!”

“Uncle Han, I’ve obtained some things from Prince Li Yang’s residence when capturing demons and the Netherworld Devil Sect’s remnants.
You might find them useful,” he said.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Wudao passed the ten-thousand-year Red Fruit, the eighth-grade spiritual weapon, the Xuanming Blade, and the Thunder Blade technique to Han Qingshan.

“This ten-thousand-year Red Fruit can help you break through to the Dao Palace realm!”

“And this Xuanming Blade is an eighth-grade spiritual weapon.
When combined with the Thunder Blade technique, it’s mighty.”

“All these years, thank you, Uncle Han, for taking care of me.
So take them as a little token of my appreciation…”

What?

Ten-thousand-year Red Fruit? An eighth-grade spiritual weapon?

Han Qingshan’s eyes widened!

“Young Master, this is too much…”

He wanted to refuse.

However, just as he was about to speak, Lin Wudao raised his hand to stop him.

Han Qingshan could only accept it respectfully.

After he left, Lin Wudao took out one-third of the Dragon Burial Map and the grade-eight magic pill he had obtained from killing Leng Qingyue.

“System, what’s the use of these two items?”

He looked at it for a moment but did not see any clues.

The system eventually gave him an answer.

“The complete Dragon Burial Map records the cultivation of powerhouses!”

“The host only has one-third of it.
The remaining one-third is in the Li Dynasty’s royal family’s hands, and the last is with the Taixuan Sect.”

“You can enter the spiritual void secret realm after collecting the complete Dragon Burial Map!”

Cultivation of the powerhouses?

Lin Wudao was surprised.

“Then what about this eighth-grade magic pill? What’s its use?”

“This magic pill is also known as the demonic pill.
A demonic pill is the source of a demon’s power.
The stronger the demon, the stronger the demonic core in its body.
The demonic pill can be used to concoct pills and medicine, and it can also be used to increase cultivation.”

“Are there any side effects? Or is it dangerous?”

“There are!”

“The demonic pill is the source of the demon.
It is born with the sinister nature of the demon.
Therefore, it can only be used after the demonic spirit is removed from the pill.
Otherwise, it will be eroded by its demonic nature.
As a result, one may eventually lose its humanity, turning into a demon.”

“How many years of cultivation can it give me?”

“About three hundred years!”

What?

So many?

Lin Wudao’s eyes lit up.

If he could devour the demonic power of this demonic pill, he could obtain three hundred years of cultivation out of thin air.
He could then break through to the final stage of the Divine Transformation realm.

However, how could he get rid of the demonic nature of the magic pill?

[ Ding! ]

[ Do you wish to consume 3000 Fate Energy points to eliminate the demonic nature of the magic pill and convert all the demonic power into your cultivation? ]

Just as Lin Wudao was feeling vexed, a system notification sounded.

[ Yes! ]

The Fate Energy value was beneficial.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

…

After 3,000 Fate Energy points were deducted, Lin Wudao was surprised to find a surge of power in his body.

The eighth-grade magic pill in his hand turned to dust in an instant.

A moment later, with the help of the system’s power, Lin Wudao’s cultivation improved further, and he successfully broke through to the final stage of the Divine Transformation realm.

“Not bad…”

Feeling the powerful energy in his body, he revealed a satisfied expression.

“Now, I have a firm foothold in the Demon Subduing Division.
Next, I am free to eliminate those with ill intentions towards me.”

Lin Wudao’s eyes were filled with killing intent!

The first person he thought of was Deputy Governor Chen Taiji.

If he were to remain in this world, he would bring him trouble sooner or later.

To avoid future trouble, Lin Wudao planned to get rid of him!

However, although he planned to kill Chen Taiji, he could not make it too obvious.
At least he could not let others suspect him.
Otherwise, he would not be able to explain himself.

At the thought of this, Lin Wudao immediately communicated with the Origin Stone in his body.

Whoosh!

Accompanied by the emergence of a vast divine light, a Doppelganger evolved.

Soon after, he split off a wisp of consciousness and quickly controlled the clone to walk out of the Star Seizer Courtyard.

The Origin Stone’s doppelganger was extremely mystical!

Not only could it hide in the endless void, but it could also freely pass through all the matter and obstacles in the world.

Therefore, Lin Wudao controlled his doppelganger and sneakily arrived at the Cloud Sea Pavilion, where Chen Taiji was.

After entering the courtyard, he realized that Chen Taiji had changed his clothes and was driving a spiritual boat straight into the Desolate Cloud Mountain behind the Demon Subduing Division.

“Here’s my chance!” Seeing Chen Taiji leave the Demon Subduing Division, Lin Wudao laughed hideously and immediately went after him.

Following him, Chen Taiji arrived at the deepest part of the Desolate Cloud Mountain.
Finally, he stopped in front of a half-moon lake.

This lake was hidden in the depths of the mountain!

The surroundings were shrouded in mist, and it was highly secretive.

If not for Chen Taiji, Lin Wudao would not have discovered this place.

“You’re so sneaky.
It must be something terrible.”

Driven by curiosity, Lin Wudao followed Chen Taiji to the lake.

Only to see another figure beside Chen Taiji.

It was a woman!

“So sneaky.
Are they dating in private?”

Lin Wudao immediately controlled his doppelganger and walked over.

At the same time, his God’s Spiritual Eye swept over the woman, and information instantly popped up.

However, Lin Wudao was extremely surprised when he saw her identity.

[ Name: Yan Suxin ]

[ Identity: Li Bingtian’s wife ]

[ Cultivation: Early-stage Dao Palace realm ]

[ Note: When she was young, she had a relationship with Chen Taiji.
The pair were forced to part ways.
]

…

What?

Li Bingtian’s wife was Chen Taiji’s old lover?

Lin Wudao was surprised.

He did not expect this.

“Li Bingtian has been fooled for many years,” he muttered.

…

Neither Chen Taiji nor Yan Suxin noticed Lin Wudao’s presence.

The two of them, who had not seen each other for a long time, became affectionate once they met.

“I heard Lin Wudao, the new Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall, killed not only a demon but also captured all the masters of the Netherworld Devil Sect.”

“The Deputy Governors of the Demon Subduing Division, and even Prince Li Yang, have jointly credited him.”

“If this continues, one day, you might be unable to keep your position as the Deputy Governor.”

Yan Suxin’s voice came from not far away.

Hearing this, Lin Wudao’s eyes narrowed!

“Hmph, Lin Wudao, that bastard, deserves to die.”

“The position of the Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall should have been mine, but because of the Governor, he was appointed.
I’m not willing to accept this.”

“I must think of a way to kill that fellow without hesitation,” Chen Taiji growled in a low voice full of resentment.

His eyes were filled with ferocity!

He looked at Yan Suxin in his arms.

“Do you have any good ideas?”

“There is one.”

“Oh? Do tell me!” Chen Taiji was excited and asked hurriedly.

“Lin Wudao has contributed significantly by killing the demon and the Netherworld Devil Sect’s remnants.
He has already gained a firm foothold in the Demon Subduing Division.
If we want to kill him, we must find another way.”

“I remember the tower in Demon Hunter Hall at Shanhai County.
So many powerful demons are locked up there.
As long as we open the tower, the demons will wreak havoc in the world.”

“No matter how capable Lin Wudao is, he will be defeated by this crime.”

“In the end, he will be killed!”

“Now, the Deputy Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall is your brother, Chen Chunqiu.
We can get him to do something.
It will be a piece of cake for him to kill Lin Wudao.”

Yan Suxin smiled.

Hiss…

Open the Demon Suppression Tower and release the demons.

Hearing this vicious method, Chen Taiji could not help but take a deep breath, his heart full of shock.

“The demons in the Demon Suppression Tower are ruthless!”

“Once they are released, it will bring great disaster to the human world.
At that time, people will be plunged into misery and suffering.
I can’t imagine how many people will become the prey of demons and devils.
Isn’t this too cruel?”

“Hmph, those who achieve great things don’t bother about trifles!”

“How can you kill Lin Wudao when you’re so wishy-washy and indecisive? When the time comes, it’s fine to push all the blame onto Lin Wudao.”

“After all, he’s the Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall,” said Yan Suxin coldly.

Hearing this, Chen Taiji fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he finally raised his head.

“Alright!”

“We’ll do as you say!”

His eyes were filled with madness.

…

“Hah.
You want to use the Demon Suppression Tower to scheme against me again? It seems like I really can’t let you guys live…”

Not far away, Lin Wudao’s eyes glowed with an infinite ferocity!

He immediately controlled his doppelganger and left the Desolate Cloud Mountain quietly.

He did not kill them immediately!

Instead, he was planning to watch a good show.

If Li Bingtian were to find out about their relationship, what crazy things would he do?

Lin Wudao was filled with anticipation.
