"Hmm...that sounds good, but are you sure you won't reveal the aura of that evil sword immortal?"
Bai Ke frowned as he spoke. He was quite interested in the suggestions provided by the system, but after all, what he said was too general.
What do you mean by "it will take effect automatically"? Did you just spend your 500 evil points so casually? That's incredibly insincere.
To put it bluntly, Bai Ke is currently feeling the pinch of the 500 evil points he spent. Spending money is easy, but earning money is hard!
In the world of Tian Long Ba Bu, he worked hard for more than two months and only earned nearly 2000, less than 3000 evil points.
This ridiculous system demands 500 evil points right off the bat, and that's just a suggestion. Even Tencent wouldn't dare to be this exploitative, would they?
Moreover, given the system's nature, Bai Ke could easily guess that if his suggestion were actually adopted, there would be an extra charge...
The thought that a mere suggestion would cost 500 evil points made Bai Ke feel as if a greedy eye was staring intently at his wallet, cough cough... his evil point balance.
Bai Ke coughed slightly. Even now, he still couldn't change his language habits, but the most important thing was still his wallet.
He glared fiercely at the penguin icon, but the system ignored the blustering Bai Ke, displaying an attitude of "use it or not, it's up to you."
"What kind of grand gesture is this..." Bai Ke felt speechless. Whatever, having a system like this is really a pain in the ass...
"Ahem, come on, explain to me what this plan is all about. I'm completely clueless about it, how can I trust you?"
Bai Ke was getting a little angry. "The customer is always right, okay? Even if my 500 evil points are wasted, you should at least make a splash!"
System bacteria: "……………………………"
The scene was awkward for a moment, but Bai Ke didn't back down at all this time, "You've gone too far! I don't believe I can't teach you a lesson this time!"
"…Ding! The suggestions provided by this system take into full account the host's requirements. Please do not doubt them."
The system seemed to have given in a bit. Bai Ke raised an eyebrow. That's more like it. How could a broken system without any independent consciousness possibly outwit or outmaneuver a person?
As if resigned to its fate, the system, which had been strongly urged by its host, still coldly explained the specific details of Bai Ke's suggestion.
Bai Ke didn't know much about the Evil Sword Immortal, but the system gave him a hint: after the Evil Sword Immortal came out of the Demon Sealing Box, he corrupted a large number of people.
People like Luo Rulie, the leader of the Thunderbolt Hall, and Bi Ping are prime examples. In particular, Bi Ping transformed from an ordinary person into a leader-level cultivator.
This shows that evil thoughts within the human body are essentially a form of energy, although most people don't know how to use them.
Just like Master Qingxu and his fellow disciples from Mount Shu, in order to eliminate all evil spirits in the world, they cultivated forbidden books to expel evil thoughts from their bodies, thereby purifying their cultivation and reaching a higher level.
Conversely, the same applies. The universe is a place of endless life and creation; how can there be any predetermined existence of justice and evil?
Thunder and rain are both forms of imperial favor, but isn't tyranny and arrogance also part of the natural order? All things are born in spring, grow in summer, are harvested in autumn, and stored in winter; this is the cycle of heaven and earth.
Expelling evil thoughts and purifying oneself is a method to improve one's cultivation, but since it is a forbidden technique, it naturally means that this method violates the principles of natural cultivation.
Under normal circumstances, cultivators follow the path of tempering their minds and subduing their desires. Humans have seven emotions and six desires, and it is inevitable that some evil thoughts will arise.
When evil thoughts accumulate, they easily lead to inner demons. The method provided by the system to Bai Ke is to artificially catalyze the evil thoughts in Lin Xiu's body into inner demons.
Then he would urge the inner demon to temporarily merge with Lin Xiu, thereby achieving Bai Ke's so-called goal of temporarily breaking through his cultivation level.
Because this breakthrough was achieved through the fusion of inner demons, it could easily lead to Lin Xiu's mind being disturbed by inner demons.
This plan is pretty perfect, although it's a bit pricey, it's basically worth the price.
Overall, Bai Ke had no objections to the solution provided by the system, but he was still somewhat melancholy, or rather... conflicted...
"Planting Demons in the Dao Heart? No, System, you clearly said before that the Evil Sword Immortal would make a move once, so why do I have to exchange for the Dao Heart Planting Demon Secret Technique?"
Bai Ke browsed the system shop for a while before discovering the so-called Dao Heart Demon Seed Secret Technique. Hmm... it sounded very familiar, and it was indeed very expensive.
Bai Ke strongly suspected that the system was targeting his evil value balance and then recommending the plan to him.
The "Demonic Seed of the Dao Heart" secret technique requires a full 2000 evil points. After exchanging for them, Bai Ke will have to return to being a penniless nobody.
Although Bai Ke didn't take the evil value seriously when he was in the world of Tian Long Ba Bu, he changed his mind after the system's martial arts arena was opened.
As a training ground capable of repairing and fusing fragments of supernatural martial arts manuals, this newly opened function of the system immediately made a splash with Bai Ke.
If you were to ask what activity is most popular among ordinary cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Realm, it would undoubtedly be exploring ancient ruins.
The cave dwellings left behind by those powerful figures in the ancient cultivation world have been revitalized after thousands of years.
The cultivator team, themed around adventure and treasure hunting, once stirred up a wave of enthusiasm in the central three regions of the Mountain and Sea Realm and even the sea.
At the same time, the increased gains from these explorations spurred the rise of other industries. In Bai Ke's words, "Damn, isn't this all about dealing in antiques?"
It has to be said that this emerging industry is really similar to the business model of those antique streets in Bai Ke's previous life.
However, in the Mountain and Sea Realm, the search is for ancient cultivation manuals, techniques, and supernatural abilities.
For Bai Ke, it doesn't matter whether you are whole or incomplete; with the training ground in hand, everything is a piece of cake.
However, the prerequisite for showing off was that he had enough evil points, but now the system, like a skinflint, has swept away all of his evil points...
How could he then rely on this to get rich, marry a beautiful and wealthy woman, and reach the pinnacle of life?
"System bacteria? You see, we're preparing for the Holy Son election, right? Can we pay for it on credit first?"
Bai Ke started to shamelessly try to charm the system, but the system remained unmoved and coldly replied, "Ding! This system operates on a small scale and does not offer credit!"
The smile on Bai Ke's face froze, and he suddenly jumped up and said, "Damn it, you shrewd businessman, you can do business in all the worlds and you call this small-scale operation?"
