Chapter 6: Inheriting Fang Ying Kan’s legacy

Exhaling a long breath, Mu Rong Lin opened his eyes in satisfaction at his spiritual sea.

The speciality of the Origin Realm was the existence of divine senses, and the peak of the Origin Realm was essentially the formation of one’s primordial soul, which would no longer be just a bundle of light. In the next realm, the Manifestation Realm, was a cultivation that not just anyone could reach.

Manifestation required the absorption of a mortal form.

Souls and mortal forms were different. Souls were the essence consisting of the personality and memories of a being, and its mortal form was the essence of its physical body. Upon the death of a creature made from heaven and earth, its soul would return to the cycle of reincarnation, but its mortal form would most likely be left behind within its flesh for up to tens of thousands of years.

Mortal forms could be from demonic creatures, humans or even phantoms. And as long as it wasn’t their own, mortal forms could be refined into a Manifestation form.

There were Manifestation Realm Experts that refined a Frost Wvyern’s mortal form, thus gaining the ability to transform into a Frost Wvveryn that could soar in the skies and freeze areas of a thousand meters.

There were Manifestation Realm experts that refined the mortal forms of ancient warriors, capable of transforming into ancient warriors that towered over ten meters and wielded giant hatchets.

There were Manifestation Realm experts that refined the mortal forms of spectres, turning to spectres that could place curses within a thousand Li and wander the heavens and earth as spirits.

In conclusion, the mortal form of a cultivated being could be refined into one’s Manifestation form, but there were also risks involved. If they were incapable of withstanding the backlash of the refinement process, they would either permanently become a lifeform of the moral form, or explode and die.

Mu Rong Lin had high requirements for the moral form he wanted to refine, but it was a pity that none of his rewards was related to moral forms, it seemed like he could only rely on the next protagonist.

He smiled as he withdrew his aura.

“Use the character legacy card.”

“Ding! The character legacy card was successfully used! Congratulations to master for obtaining Fang Ying Kan’s legacy!”

The Assassinating Blood Sword yong master, Fang Ying Kan, who ‘hid swords in his sleeves, smiled at the sight of blood and was as unpredictable as a thunderstorm’ — a character from Heroes. One of the great experts of the sixth year of the late Northern Song Dynasty. Given the title of ‘Marquis of Martial Technique’ by the imperial court, he was also the leader of the ‘Bridge group’.

A scheming man wise beyond his young age, he had an angel-like appearance with the heart and mind of a devil. He was strategic and knew how to hide his nature, choosing to put on the facade of an innocent, likeable gentleman.

The inheritable legacy:

Cultivation method: 《Mountainous Scripture》, 《Art of Endurance》

Skills: 《Blood River God Sword》, 《Bloody River God Finger》, 《Night Assassination》, 《Heart-Hurting Arrow》

It was actually Fang Ying Kan!

The character Fang Ying Kan of Mister Wen!

Mu Rong Lin was amazed, not knowing what to say.

As a Wuxia fan, he had naturally reread Wen Rui An’s novels multiple times, and his peculiar and protagonist-worthy characters had captivated him. Despite not being one of the most popular characters, Fang Ying Kan was definitely the most mysterious.

Even the Bridge group’s other leader, Mi You Qiao, didn’t know if he was aiding Fang Ying Kan, or being led by the nose by him.

He had actually gotten Fang Ying Kan’s legacy.

Undefeatable Villan SystemOwner: Mu Rong Lin

There were cultivation methods, spiritual skills, spiritual weapons, artifacts, arrays, talismans, familiar spirits......

But, the system shop only had items of this world, and Mu Rong Lin couldn’t find the 《Northen Profound Martial Technique》from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

“Master, the system shop will only sell items of this world, and not the items from the novels and comics of your original world. Do not continue with ceaseless thoughts.”

“Is that so?” Mu Rong Lin rubbed his chin, this wasn’t unreasonable, and this world’s uniquity would be lost if items of other worlds were mixed in.

And thinking about it, One Piece’s devil fruit and the Force Neutralising Lightsaber from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils were indeed too much of a violation.

But there was really quite a bit of items in this world.

From items such as spiritual pills to even an entire planet could be bought in the shop, and all kinds of items were categorised into an unending list. There were so many options that there were over tens of thousands of different kinds of Earth level blood attributed spiritual pills alone, each with its own effects and ingredients.

“Can’t I search for items to locate protagonists?” Mu Rong Lin was puzzled, “I can only look for them myself?”

“Yes.”

“Interesting.” Mu Rong Lin grinned, “I hope more protagonists show up. If not, I won’t have enough villain score to strengthen myself!”

Mu Rong Lin was at the peak of the Origin Realm and needed a suitable mortal form, he wasn’t willing to look around, as he didn’t believe that a single mortal form in Xia would be worthy of him. Currently, he had two options, one was to steal from a protagonist’s serendipity since a protagonist’s mortal form wouldn’t be ordinary, or he could purchase one from the system shop, but the only ones that he could accept required at least 200 villain value.

Fallen angel’s mortal form: 300 villain value

Bloody sea Buddha’s mortal form: 350 villain value

Sky-devouring demon’s mortal form: 300 villain value

...

Looking at the expensive mortal forms, Mu Rong Lin felt that there weren’t enough protagonists to go around.

“What a pity, I’ll check back after taking care of the next protagonist. There isn’t enough time left, and those brothers of mine won’t wait a few years for me. Heh, I can’t wait to see their expressions when they see me.”

“Hm, these clothes are pretty good.” Mu Rong Lin recalled the servants and the carriages in his memory, that was the look of a villain.

“Tch tch tch, what a pity.” Circulating his spiritual power, Mu Rong Lin decided to rest early and walked over to his bed.

Within his residence, his servants were still cleaning up the corpses in his study and his courtyard. None of them was surprised and said a few words in pity as they forgot about the three people who had just died.

And on the morning of the next day, they continued to carry out their duties as usual.
