I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

400 million yuan elephant, where is Ye Tian going?“Yaochi Immortal Palace, Sister Xin Xi, so you’re from the Yaochi Immortal Palace,” Dragon Ningbing said in surprise.

She had thought Xin Xi was merely a powerful Cultivator, never imagining she was actually the Vice Palace Master of the Yaochi Immortal Palace.

Xin Xi merely nodded and said, “Oh, right, this is for you.”

Xin Xi handed her a piece of Southern Brightness Li Fire Jade, a treasure of extreme Yang.

This was something she had picked out from the treasure vault. As Xiao Fan’s plaything, you absolutely couldn’t be harmed—this was Xin Xi’s inner thought.

“Wear it on your person; it can harmonize the Yin-cold Qi within you. However, you should raise your cultivation as soon as possible. I imagine it won’t be long before you can control your Physique yourself and transform this cold Qi into your own strength.”

“Mhm, thank you, Sister Xin Xi.” Dragon Ningbing accepted it with a smile, not declining.

She knew that becoming stronger was the best response she could give Young Master Xiao.

“Oh, right, where is Young Master Xiao?” Dragon Ningbing suddenly asked.

“Young Master is resting in my Yaochi Immortal Palace’s Yaochi Immortal Hall. He’s probably Cultivating,” Xin Xi said softly.

She had already dispatched Disciples to send Immortal Stones and Immortal Pills into the Yaochi Immortal Hall. As long as Xiao Fan had a need, they would send them in, with no limit.

As a major power in the Immortal Realm, the Yaochi Immortal Palace had deep foundations. Supporting one Xiao Fan was not a big problem.

… … … …

Xiao Fan, in the Yaochi Immortal Palace, indeed received treatment befitting an Emperor Emeritus.

Xin Xi directly arranged for him to stay in the Yaochi Immortal Hall. It was said that this Yaochi Immortal Hall was a secret cultivation ground that only the Palace Master could enjoy.

Xiao Fan sat quietly in the Yaochi Immortal Hall. The Immortal Qi here was rich, but it was countless times more pure than the Immortal Qi outside.

Calling it an Immortal Hall, it was actually more like a cultivation Immortal Kingdom.

Ancient trees soared like heaven-reaching pillars, mountains rose like the spine of the earth, colorful clouds drifted, Immortal Cranes soared, the plants and mountains were beautiful, and the rivers, lakes, and seas were calm.

In the very center of this Immortal Kingdom, there was an Immortal City spanning a thousand li, which was the main body of the Yaochi Immortal Hall.

Jade bricks and gemstones paved the paths, vermillion walls were inlaid with divine materials, rockeries and bamboo groves were scattered throughout, and weeds growing everywhere were rare Immortal Plants in the Human Realm.

Within this Immortal Hall, many unique exotic beasts drank from mountain streams, divine birds sang, and Immortal Butterflies danced.

Outside the Immortal Hall, many fruit trees grew, their fruits colorful and imbued with Immortal rhyme. Xiao Fan only needed to sniff the fruit aroma to feel his cultivation stirring, showing signs of growth.

“Immortal Plants everywhere, Immortal Trees laden with fruit throughout the garden, rare and exotic beasts interspersed—an Immortal family’s blessed land is nothing more than this,” Xiao Fan said with some emotion.

He saw a low shrub with many thumb-sized, reddish vermillion fruits, emitting a strong, sweet, and enticing fragrance. They looked very appetizing.

He picked one, brought it to his nose, and sniffed it, wanting to swallow it.

“Although this place is so beautiful, it might not grow poisonous fruits, but what if I eat it and feel unwell?” Xiao Fan paused.

It would be good if someone could taste it first.

Got it!

He released Wang Cai from his Spirit Beast Bag. Wang Cai was originally sleeping in the Spirit Beast Bag, but the sudden feeling of falling to the ground woke him from his dream.

“Ouch, my dream was halfway done. I was about to have 3000 beautiful dogs in my harem. Who’s so wicked as to disturb my peace… I deserve death.”

He grumbled, opened his eyes, and saw Xiao Fan, then began to curse himself.

“Ma… Master.”

“Why have you summoned me?” he said fawningly.

3000 beautiful dogs in his harem? He’s an old pervert.

“Eat this.” Xiao Fan threw the vermillion fruit to Wang Cai. Wang Cai, not understanding, sniffed it. It smelled very sweet, so he chewed it.

The sweet and sour juice spread in the dog’s mouth, and the rich Immortal Qi Dao Yun exploded. Wang Cai’s pupils couldn’t help but constrict. Holy crap, an Immortal Fruit.

Seeing Wang Cai’s astonished expression, Xiao Fan felt it was a bit slow. He used the Chronospace Codex to accelerate time for him, to see if it would cause any harm to Wang Cai.

Wang Cai was concentrating on refining the medicinal power. He only felt that the refining speed had increased significantly.

After about half an hour, Wang Cai slowly opened his dog eyes, his aura having risen to another level.

He wagged his tail, nodding and bowing, saying, “Thank you, Master, for the reward.”

He won’t die, it’s not poisonous!

He picked a few more fruits that looked more appetizing to him and had Wang Cai eat them all.

Wang Cai was somewhat moved. To give him such precious Immortal Fruits to eat, Master was too good to him.

Not only did he let him eat, but he also used a treasure to accelerate his refining time.

Where could one find such a good Master?

“Mhm, go back.” He opened the Spirit Beast Bag, and Wang Cai obediently crawled in.

“Alright, it’s been verified. These few are not poisonous.” Xiao Fan began to pick and eat them himself.

After the Heavenly Dao assisted him in his cultivation, Xiao Fan’s Primal Elephant Micro-Particles had already begun to transform.

He didn’t even need to refine the medicinal power of these fruits himself; the Dragon Elephant Micro-Particles that hadn’t yet transformed into Yuan Elephants voluntarily began to absorb and evolve into Yuan Elephants.

“Now, I can just keep eating, eating, eating, and the Dragon Elephants will continuously transform and evolve into Yuan Elephants.”

This was his simplest cultivation method: Swallow!

Xiao Fan didn’t know what these fruits were called, but every time he swallowed one, a million Dragon Elephants on his body would transform and become Yuan Elephants.

“One fruit can transform a million Dragon Elephant Micro-Particles. For 840 million Dragon Elephant Micro-Particles, swallowing 840 should be enough.”

Xiao Fan immediately started eating, eating, eating. This was the simplest cultivation method in history.

To speed up his cultivation, he used the Chronospace Codex to accelerate time again. Xiao Fan stayed in the Yaochi Immortal Palace for a month, and all these fruits were consumed by him.

It was a pity that there weren’t many fruits on these shrubs, only four or five on each plant. He scoured them all clean and only ate about 400 of them.

“24x speed, one month, two years of time, awakened 400 million Primal Elephant Micro-Particles.”

“This cultivation speed is decent.”

Xiao Fan clenched his fists. The surging power was countless times stronger than when he first achieved Immortal Ascension.

One Yuan Elephant was equivalent to a hundred Dragon Elephants.

Nearly half of his Micro-Particles had transformed into Yuan Elephants. Conservatively estimated, his strength should have increased by 50 times. This is only calculating strength; actual combat also needs to consider speed and the amount of magical power. When combined, the increase in combat power far exceeds 50 times.

This was still without an increase in cultivation.

Once his cultivation improved, the base strength of each Micro-Particle would also increase simultaneously, and the amplification would only become more apparent.

He understood more deeply why wealth ranked first among wealth, Dao Companion, cultivation method, and land.

Money equals power!

“One fruit awakens a million Yuan Elephants. The grade of this fruit is at least equivalent to a Fourth-Grade Immortal Pill.”

Like Immortal Artifacts, Immortal Pills also have nine grades, with ninth being the lowest and first being the best.

Above that were Saint-Grade Medicinal Pills.

A Fourth-Grade Immortal Pill was enough to make a Taiyi True Immortal-Rank Cultivator’s heart stir, yet in front of Xiao Fan, they could be eaten like candy.

This immense medicinal power was also thanks to the 840 million Micro-Particles in his body, which could refine it together; otherwise, he might have exploded and died.

Balancing work and rest, Xiao Fan took out the Child of Destiny’s script to see this person’s fate.

【Ye Tian: Child of Destiny, Ascension Cultivator, has already undergone transformation in the Human Realm, with a strong fate.】

【Classic Achievements: Unified the Human Realm, elevating the Human Race to the pinnacle of his world. The only regret is that he failed to completely eliminate the Demon Race, leaving behind future troubles.

Merits and Demerits Offset: Used billions of Human Race as bait to completely bury the future of the Demon Race, but accumulated too much killing intent, so he could only secretly cross over to the Immortal Realm, drawing the Heavenly Tribulation’s pursuit.】

So that’s how it is.

Xiao Fan understood. The explosion of the Immortal Ascension City was probably the destruction caused by the Lower Realm’s Heavenly Dao pursuing Ye Tian.

He continued to read.

【Character Relationships:

Luo Ruyan: Ye Tian’s dream lover, a confidante with whom he agreed to embark on the Immortal Dao. On several occasions, Ye Tian played the hero, rescuing the beauty and winning her heart. He could confess to Luo Ruyan.

But!

Ye Tian used ‘the Great Dao is ruthless’ as an excuse to cover up his cowardice and timidity, acting like a eunuch, not daring to take the initiative. He had only met Luo Ruyan a few times, and the number of conversations they had was negligible.】

【Click to view Luo Ruyan’s script.】

Does that even need asking?

Xiao Fan didn’t hesitate and directly opened Luo Ruyan’s life script.

【Luo Ruyan: Already Ascended, ascended a hundred years earlier than Ye Tian. Upon first entering the Immortal Realm, she was without support. Due to her exquisite beauty and graceful Immortal bearing, she became well-known and famous for her beauty.

Later, after offending an enemy, she joined the Mystic Bliss Convent to seek protection, working as an entertainer in the Mystic Bliss Convent’s Spring Breeze Pavilion, performing arts but not selling her body.】

【Standard Trope: Ye Tian first shows his brilliance, learns of Luo Ruyan’s predicament, storms the Spring Breeze Pavilion, and forcefully rescues her. Identified as: relying on women to drive plot development.】

Holy crap, these few lines of text gave Xiao Fan a whole major plot idea.

The two meet, get to know each other, and understand each other, but they stubbornly refuse to acknowledge their relationship, treating each other only as ordinary friends.

Then, to develop this relationship and officially elevate it to a Dao Companion relationship, a rescue-the-girl plot must be created.

And the Spring Breeze Pavilion of the Mystic Bliss Convent was probably the key location where Ye Tian would display his brilliance and win the beauty’s favor.

But now, if you’re going to play all these deceptive tricks, then I’m going to make her my own!

Hehehehehehe…

No, one condition is still missing!

“System, did Luo Ruyan and Ye Tian ever have any physical intimacy?”

【The closest the two ever got was when a strand of Luo Ruyan’s hair was cut by a sword and fell onto Ye Tian’s—ring finger. Ye Tian unilaterally believed that, rounding up, it counted as him having had physical intimacy with her.】

“That’s it?” Xiao Fan said, dumbfounded.

【Also, Ye Tian treasured this strand of hair as if it were a priceless gem. He had already framed it and wore it close to his body. Luo Ruyan is still a virgin. This System will not introduce you to junk, rest assured.】

Holy crap, why does he sound like a pervert?

Hmm, good. Only a virgin will provide a sense of conquest during Dual Cultivation.

Xiao Fan continued to read.

【Ye Tian’s Future Development: Joins the Saint Institute.

Dozens of major powers vied for Ye Tian, offering generous treatment: Head Disciple, Successor, future Sect Head. Some even explicitly stated their willingness to marry off divine maidens or Saintesses to Ye Tian, but Ye Tian was unmoved.

The Saint Institute arrived late, only saying one sentence: “The Saint Institute is the strongest power in the Immortal Domain.”

Ye Tian then chose to join the Saint Institute, but the treatment the Saint Institute offered was very ordinary, only making Ye Tian an Outer Sect Disciple.】

Classic Outer Sect Disciple!

【Saint Institute: A subordinate branch of the Saint Hall. There are countless Immortal Domains in the Immortal Realm, and each Immortal Domain has a Saint Institute.

The host’s current location is the Eternal Immortal Domain, and the Saint Institute Ye Tian joined is precisely the Saint Institute of the Eternal Immortal Domain.】

Saint Hall!

Xiao Fan saw familiar words. Enemies meeting made his eyes red with anger.

He had already planned to manipulate the Child of Destiny. Now that the Saint Institute was also connected to Ye Tian, it was perfect. He would make an example of Ye Tian to give the Saint Institute a little shock.
