Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Chapter 395: 226, The Sacred Gate should feed on the strongest of heaven and earth.

After lending a hand to others, Tan Shuchang had already arrived near the target of the encirclement by numerous cultivators and players. He glanced around, and not seeing the stereotypical Demon Cave Mansion “decor” of human hides laid on the ground or skulls used as drinking cups, he nodded in approval.

After all, unless one had connections in high places, anyone who dared to decorate their cave mansion in such a way would sooner or later be knocked over the head by a monkey wielding a stick.

Kui Mulang returned to the heavens, while Lady White Bones actually became true dry bones.

That showed the difference.

“What are you doing here?” Tan Shuchang called out, knowing that without speaking up, the girl wouldn’t notice him.

Three thousand years of practice had elevated his cultivation to an extremely frightening level.

“When did you come over?”

Upon hearing Tan Shuchang’s voice, Dongdong felt a surge of joy, yet when she looked at him, her little face was expressionless.

But the tone of her inquiry was filled with barely concealed excitement and agitation.

Meeting her clear, almond-shaped eyes, Tan Shuchang’s face revealed a gentle smile, “Just before I spoke these words.”

“Have you been in closed-door cultivation for three years?” Dongdong asked.

“Yes,” Tan Shuchang nodded.

After hearing this answer, the girl didn’t press further. After all, her past experiences told her that it was better not to ask about the cultivation achievements of a demon cultivator.

However, just because she didn’t ask didn’t mean a certain demon cultivator wouldn’t volunteer information.

Tan Shuchang said with a hint of pleasure, “After three years of cultivation, I’ve finally comprehended some mysteries, mastered the subtleties of the twenty-four solar terms, and boosted my cultivation by three thousand four hundred years!”

Cultivation?

Three thousand four hundred years?

All of a sudden, Dongdong felt not too great: “…”

Because she had been playing for three years.

Although it couldn’t be said to be just playing—there were achievements in cultivation, particularly after using “Blood God” to devour three Ghost Kings and forging the Ghost King Sword, her sword Dao strength had fully returned.

But compared to more than three thousand years of cultivation… there was really no comparison.

“Oh,” Dongdong said with a wooden face, refusing to let any hint of envy show!

Because what she felt now was pure jealousy.

“Aren’t you going to congratulate me?” Tan Shuchang couldn’t help but say when he saw the girl’s lack of reaction, feeling completely devoid of joy without it!

“Congratulations,” Dongdong said with a supremely calm tone, displaying her impeccable compliance.

That damn demon cultivator! @@novelbin@@

Seeing her react this way, Tan Shuchang had no choice but to give up.

It was clear that this girl could really hold it in; no wonder she was a demon sword cultivator!

Truly infuriating!

At this moment, as they stared each other down, their thoughts synchronized instantly, each labeling the other as a “detestable demon cultivator.”

Then Tan Shuchang didn’t ask her what she had done over the past three years, as it was meaningless. He simply advised, “Regarding the Ghost Kings within the Snake Desire Realm, it’s better not to disturb them if possible. But those outside of the Snake Desire Realm, it doesn’t matter.”

After all, the Ghost Kings inside the Snake Desire Realm were like his tools for maintaining the realm, and in times of need, they could also serve as emergency rations.

It was the same principle as a country’s basic grain reserves.

As he spoke, Tan Shuchang waved his hand, and a water screen materialized, clearly showing the entire scene within the Snake Desire Realm. Not only were the boundaries displayed with sharp clarity, but even the various factions preparing to besiege a certain girl were revealed, and the display was even live-updated.

“What are these?” Dongdong couldn’t help but reach out her little hand, pointing at the layer of white fog in the boundary area.

“These are creatures of the Yin spirit, refined with my mana, capable of blocking all who have not achieved immortality,” Tan Shuchang answered. He didn’t have the ability, but the Greed Rules did.

Upon hearing this, Dongdong glanced at Tan Shuchang, her cherry red lips moving slightly as though she wanted to say something but ultimately remaining silent.

Because the power of this demon cultivator had always been unreasonable, not a recent development.

Having started with nothing, he had achieved what other cultivators struggled their entire lives to do, as if he was born to become an immortal!

Thus, the girl pointed at the factions again, asking, “And what about these?”

The appearance of these factions was odd, neither resembling cities nor the dwellings of any Ghost King, for they were all crudely constructed.

What’s more, the strange thing was that the number of people within them was constantly increasing!

In the case of those city-like places, apart from “Hands and Feet City,” the population of other cities fluctuated. Only these few factions, like “Hands and Feet City,” only increased and never decreased.

“These? These groups are here to fight you,” Tan Shuchang explained to the girl.

“Fight me? Why?” The girl’s expressionless face suddenly puffed up at the cheeks, visibly annoyed.

“I’m not entirely sure, I just happened to come across a few people on the way…” Tan Shuchang briefly recounted what the players had told him.

“All I did was refine three Ghost Kings to forge a sword, and they’re all so worked up about it?” Dongdong expressed her bafflement. She also hadn’t really done anything!

The worst thing she did was occupy a Ghost King’s domain, found it unsuitable, moved to another place, found that also unsuitable, so kept on moving… until after about a dozen changes, she realized the first spot was the best and went back to drive the Ghost King away.
