Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength

In the Ascension List.

First, a cultivator's time is precious, so even though many cultivators in the channel are multitalented, they still fail to attract much attention.

Meng Yu, in order to promote the Little White Rabbit News, truly took to the battlefield himself, including killing people and later taking on Myriad Gold Pavilion head-on. There was also dedicated customer service online dealing cards, which finally made the channel popular.

"Hmph."

Bai Hu turned her head away reluctantly because Meng Yu was stroking her fluffy, bushy tail.

She had helped him so much and even promised him great benefits, and she wasn't after her body, just wanted to touch the fox's tail; that wasn't too much, was it?

Hmph…

Although Bai Hu tried her best to dissuade Meng Yu from the idea, after taking favors from others, one's hand softens, one's words soften too. In the end, she had to let Meng Yu touch her tail.

"Am I really being unreasonable?"

Second, to attract attention, one must reveal secrets and add a certain color.

For example, in this story, there are many stories about the relationship between Meng Yu and the Demon Race, and then what happened and how.

"Sister, I didn't do anything bad, didn't call those fox girls to do bad things, and didn't blackmail everyone, right?"

Lately, many Fox Clan girls have been working in the Ascension List channel. These customer service girls are very enthusiastic, and Bai Hu has been recommending them to Meng Yu, but Meng Yu only had eyes for Sister Bai Hu.

I'm being so nice to you, can I have a touch?

Although Sister Bai Hu was unhappy, she eventually agreed.

You can touch, but no funny business, or I'll beat you to death.

"Here they come."

Suddenly, Bai Hu uttered these words.

The arrival was a very ordinary-looking young man, nothing special about him from the outside. He was also known as Mu Venerable, one of the three Nascent Souls of Eternal Night Palace.

"Sect Master Meng."

He glanced at Bai Hu and then, with a sigh, sat down in front of Meng Yu.

The Eldest Princess was racking her brains to act for the future of the Eternal Night Palace, even gratefully thanking her grandfather for his steadfast support. However, she had no idea that Meng Yu could be contacted not only by her but by Mu Venerable as well.

Meng Yu didn't want to judge what kind of person Mu Venerable was, but he knew his story.

Previously, Emperor Ye of Eternal Night Palace and his Nascent Soul spouse controlled all affairs great and small within the palace, and Mu Venerable was just ordinarily cultivating, without any action to vie for power.

However, the Eternal Night Palace was a Demon Sect, how could a Nascent Soul Master truly have no ambitions?

To be oppressed for a lifetime, to finally hold power, only to be crushed into dust – how could he possibly be willing?

All of Meng Yu's strategies targeted not only the Eldest Princess but also Mu Venerable!

Indeed, he fell into place.

The three-party talks went very smoothly, and Mu Venerable was prepared to surrender while he still had some cards to play.

Perhaps there could be a turning point if he waited further, but the bigger likelihood was that further waiting would lead to annihilation.

For a Nascent Soul Cultivator, the survival of Eternal Night Palace wasn't more important than his own family.

He had no excessive demands; his previous betrayal made his bargaining power weak this time, and finally, the agreement that was reached revolved mainly around him.

The prior promises were to be reduced by Meng Yu, and the conditions of those below completely annulled, with half privately shared with Mu Venerable.

At the same time, Mirror Twelve promised to guide Mu Venerable in the Great Black Sky techniques, and swore by the great Dao to ensure his safe departure.

"Goodbye."

The talks went well, and Mu Venerable nodded to Bai Hu.

Mu Venerable's greatest fear was that Meng Yu would renege on his word, so this time, Bai Hu served as the guarantor. Several of the Fox Clan geniuses entered the Eternal Night Palace as hostages to ensure the deal proceeded perfectly.

This didn't necessarily guarantee Meng Yu wouldn't betray them, but Meng Yu had shown enough sincerity.

Mu Venerable left, and Bai Hu looked somewhat forlorn.

The Eternal Night Palace was the foremost sect in the Western Wastes; to see later generations cause such a scene, where Mu Venerable ended up betraying the Eternal Night Palace yet received promises from Meng Yu.

"The law of the jungle is just that, if all three Nascent Souls of Eternal Night Palace were present, he would not have surrendered. So, Sister, you should get along with Sister Shui Yue, right?"

Meng Yu said with a smile.

"I'm going to the Eternal Night Palace."

Suddenly, Bai Hu said this.

"We need to resolve things quickly on this end to prevent accidents. I'll go in as a hostage, which should put Mu Venerable's mind at ease and hopefully end the dispute quickly. What do you think? Huh?"

She suddenly shivered as Meng Yu grabbed her tail again.

"Sister, take care!"

Meng Yu sincerely said.

He didn't stop Bai Hu from doing this; going in as a hostage was not the same as surrendering, and she was taking a risk for herself.

The issue with the Eternal Night Palace could finally be peacefully resolved.

Bai Hu, as a mediator, although it was a bit risky, could also quicken the end of the matters.

...

The town was a bit on edge.

After so many years of cultivation practice, everyone understood one thing: the commoners are commoners, and those above are above. A million eggs can't destroy a single rock.

Being slandered didn't matter, but when the initiator was Elder Chen from the Four Great Sects, that was intriguing.

The Four Great Sects were giants in the Central Plains, each with vast strength. Could it be that they couldn't stand Meng Yu and were preparing to make a move against him?

To the onlookers below, the alliance between the Four Great Sects and the Myriad Gold Pavilion seemed exceedingly close, as they had always been colluding like wolves and jackals.

Then, next, the Myriad Gold Pavilion once again declared that Eternal Night Palace had achieved a great victory.

...

This was a double act.

Bai Hu had entered the Eternal Night Palace, and Mu Venerable breathed a sigh of relief. Now, Bai Hu and Meng Yu were cooperating in various ways on the Ascension List. Sending such a significant collaborator over indicated Meng Yu's sincerity.

Meng Yu had shown his earnestness, and Mirror Twelve had guided his cultivation, while his few trusted subordinates, carrying treasures and Spirit Stones, left the Eternal Night Palace. They reported back to him on the Ascension List that all was normal.

Thus, when Meng Yu asked him to submit a declaration of allegiance, he had to comply.

He gathered the real diehards of the Eternal Night Palace to the outskirts and let Meng Yu eliminate them.

This was betrayal, but Mu Venerable had no choice but to do so.

After someone looks for death and gets saved, it's hard to find the courage to do so again, and Mu Venerable felt the same. He was very clear that if he did not agree to Meng Yu's terms, he knew the consequences.

The battle went smoothly; it was a slaughter. True Monarch Shui Yue, joined by Mirror Twelve and a team of Golden Cores from the Immortal Sect, swiftly eliminated a core group from the Eternal Night Palace.

Then, the Golden Cores of the Immortal Sect used a secret technique to mimic the celestial phenomena of the Golden Cores dying in battle, presenting to the outside world a scene of heavy losses.

Eternal Night Palace had lost seven Golden Cores and dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators, while on Meng Yu's side, there were also sixteen Golden Cores that died (fabricated). Mu Venerable, with the help of the Yuan Magnetic Cannon, lightly injured Mirror Twelve and preserved the Mountain Gate Formation.

Both sides got what they wanted; Eternal Night Palace gained face, Mu Venerable's reputation soared from a single battle, and Meng Yu got the essential leverage.

Now, even if Mu Venerable wanted to back out, all Meng Yu had to do was reveal the evidence, and people's loyalty would be completely shattered.

The Eldest Princess was unaware of this matter beforehand; had she known, she would never have agreed to it.

...

Within the Ascension List.

The Myriad Gold Pavilion widely publicized the victory of the Eternal Night Palace, but Meng Yu did not argue. Instead, he hoped their elite forces would truly rush day and night to help out at Eternal Night Palace.

Then, when the time came, to eliminate a few more Nascent Souls would be extremely satisfying.

That morning, Meng Yu heard another piece of news: Xue Yunfeng was dead.

Xue Yunfeng, the middle-aged man with a somber face, lay cold before Meng Yu, with no wounds found on his body.

"He must have been found in reality."

Someone said softly.

Soon after, Meng Yu heard another piece of news: Elder Chen from the Taiyi Sect had released a message that they had killed Xue Yunfeng.

Xue Yunfeng did not send Meng Yu a distress signal; his last post on his personal page was a single line.

"I have no regrets."

He must have died in battle or even committed suicide, for the Taiyi Sect would prefer to have captured him alive.

What do you do when you want to protect someone, and someone else insists on killing them and succeeds?

It's a blatant slap in the face.

"Who wants to join me on a venture?"

Meng Yu asked and then headed towards the back of the small town.

One of the reasons the Myriad Gold Pavilion accused Meng Yu of being an evildoer was that these days Meng Yu had killed many people, then had their bodies carried by members of the Fox Clan to a storage site behind the small town.

Every day, people came to the town to test their blades; every day, hundreds or thousands died under Meng Yu's saber. Regardless of gender, these bodies would be dragged to the storage point at the town's rear by the Fox Clan.

If you wanted to test your blade, you had to accept this condition.

There was a Great Formation here that absorbed the Yin Qi of the nine lands and was laid out with a corpse cultivation formation. Moreover, whether it was Qi Cultivation or Foundation Establishment, their physical condition was excellent. The bodies of those practicing Qi Cultivation could remain uncorrupted for decades, and Foundation Establishment corpses were even better material for casting spells.

Bai Hu followed behind Meng Yu, and her mind flashed back to several months ago when she first met him. Meng Yu had killed many people and placed them at the Eye of Array.

She had also been practicing the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber during this time.

For a Nascent Soul True Monarch, whether in reality or the Ascension List, it was not difficult to grasp the basics of such a Cultivation Technique. This technique had many advantages, but if one took the evil path, it became even more powerful.

Meng Yu looked at everyone standing before him and smiled.

"Fire Oil."

He said, and from his Storage Bag, a black liquid flew out.

Indeed, these corpses were originally the last resort. If the enemy came to attack him, he would activate the saber intent within them, leading to a Hundred Thousand Blood Corpse Great Formation.

However, these corpses served another purpose: to attract attacks from others.

Massive flames blazed, and plumes of black smoke could be seen for miles around.

"Everyone, I created the Corpse Forest merely to give my sword practicing brothers a place to emulate. So many people, so many wounds; there is much to learn for those who wish. Yet these days, many have spread rumors that I will use these corpses for evil deeds. So let's burn them with a single fire. I am going to trouble Myriad Gold Pavilion now; who wishes to join me?"

"Isn't it Elder Chen?"

Someone asked.

"The Four Great Sects have arranged a grand competition, making things convenient for everyone to enjoy themselves. I am grateful to them for providing the venue and should not spoil their grand tournament. Elder Chen is a messenger of the Taiyi Sect; I will go and kill him later."

One by one, people stood up, and weapons were distributed.

"I will remember the grudge against the Taiyi Sect, but we'll deal with that later. Today, those who are brothers join me in taking down Wanbao City."

Forty-eight who had cultivated the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, none shrank back.

And in Blood God Town, no fewer than nine thousand nine hundred and fifty-eight cultivators were willing to join Meng Yu in troubling the Myriad Gold Pavilion.

"Fellows, the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber is a technique that gathers the power of the masses. Today, join me in a fight!"

The cultivators formed a mighty stream, with Meng Yu leading at the very front.

The sky was vast as the sea, the setting sun blood-red—a perfect day for murder.
