As the saying goes, hard work leads to wealth.
After a night of searching, Ye Yu had successfully made several more unlucky “friends.”
Under the effect of the Nemesis attribute,
these unlucky friends all died very quickly.
And Ye Yu’s attributes also underwent an ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ update.
Up to now, his attributes had become two purples and one green.
Nemesis (Purple): You are the legendary bane of friendship, at full power. Anyone who becomes your friend will suffer a blood disaster within one minute. Those with weaker fate may even face the risk of death at any moment.
Adamantine Body (Purple): Your body’s durability has greatly increased; ordinary demonic weapons cannot pierce your defense. Honestly, young man, you are really tough!
One in a Thousand (Green): An excellent cultivation talent allowing you to learn any technique faster than others. Now, you are considered a genius by others.
After a night’s effort, Ye Yu also discovered some tips about plunder attributes.
One must admit, this thing really depends on luck.
With good luck, you might pull a powerful attribute in one go.
With bad luck, you get some lame, cliché attributes that are utterly useless.
To be honest, Ye Yu really had encountered some classic weird attributes,
such as the “Born Loser” green attribute.
No matter what you do, you fail; destined for mediocrity, even the most resilient spirit will be worn down. Your life is doomed to be lying flat— the more you struggle, the more painful it becomes.
There was also the “Tearful Life” (Blue) attribute.
You cry when happy, cry when sad, cry when eating, even cry when hugging your lover—you are destined to be the pioneer of tragic tales in the demon realm.
Really bizarre.
So Ye Yu always kept his distance from those with such strange attributes, fearing that accidentally killing them and plundering their attributes would be utterly game over.
Besides that, Ye Yu was now certain that attributes really could fuse.
For example, the Adamantine Body (Purple) attribute wasn’t obtained in a single plunder.
It was formed by fusing two green attributes.
Honestly, that was truly amazing.
It basically told Ye Yu a direct path to godhood.
For example, if he wanted to cultivate swordsmanship,
he just needed to keep killing demons with sword-enhancing attributes.
Then he could keep fusing, and there was a high chance of eventually fusing a golden sword attribute.
This was completely exhilarating.
Having confirmed this path,
Ye Yu suddenly felt as if the real path of promotion in this dream had opened.
Nothing was confusing anymore!
However, he had no plans to leave Zhutian Sect for now.
Because today was the real disciple acceptance ceremony of this demonic sect.
More demons would arrive then.
Ye Yu could sift through them again, hoping to get better attributes!
So he sat cross-legged quietly, beginning to wait.
Zhao Jia respectfully stood behind him.
His eyes half-closed, seemingly dozing but actually sensing everything around with his divine sense.
If he detected any demon above the Heavenly Demon realm daring to approach, he would immediately drive them away with overwhelming force.
As for demons below the Heavenly Demon realm, he didn’t even bother.
That was Zhao Jia’s confidence!
As time passed,
by noon, nearly a thousand demons had gathered at Zhutian Sect’s entrance.
No doubt, they all wanted to join the sect, gain cultivation techniques, and embark on the path of cultivation.
But most had average talent; even if by chance they entered the Qi Refinement stage, ultimately they couldn’t reach Foundation Establishment.
This was the reality ordinary demons had to face.
Finally, Zhutian Sect disciples opened the gates and allowed the demons inside to test their talent and see if they were worthy disciples.
Looking at the crowded crowd ahead,
Zhao Jia said that as long as Ye Yu wished, they could always take the special passage,
so he wouldn’t waste time testing talent.
But Ye Yu quickly rejected this proposal.
In his words, he liked lively scenes and making friends with interesting people.
Hearing this, Zhao Jia felt a chill down his back.
He had been by Ye Yu’s side all night,
witnessing the weird events firsthand.
Any demon agreeing to be Ye Yu’s friend would meet accidents and die within a minute.
To be honest, this was pretty creepy.
Even as a Mysterious Demon realm demon, he found it unbelievable.
He instinctively kept half a body’s distance from Ye Yu,
making a mental decision:
If Ye Yu ever wanted to be friends with him, he would immediately refuse and step back a hundred meters.
Fortunately,
Ye Yu seemed to have no intention of making friends with him. That was a relief.
Within Zhutian Sect was a special Talent Testing Stone.
Placing one’s palm on it, the emitted brightness would reveal one’s talent.
Thus, the testing proceeded quickly.
Soon it was Ye Yu’s turn.
Guided by the disciples, Ye Yu placed his hand on the Talent Testing Stone.
Brilliant light began to shine.
A disciple enviously said, “Great talent. If nothing goes wrong, the elders will likely favor you and accept you as a disciple. Maybe in a few years, I’ll have to call you senior brother!”
Ye Yu smiled without speaking, looking down at the Talent Testing Stone.
Even the One in a Thousand (Green) attribute could emit such dazzling light.
If it were a golden talent attribute, wouldn’t it just blow this thing out?
Zhao Jia frowned slightly.
“Wasn’t the Young Master’s talent said to be most ordinary, capped at Foundation Establishment? How could the Talent Testing Stone shine like this?”
“Incredible.”
How was this done?
Though puzzled, Zhao Jia didn’t ask.
At this moment, the disciples began leading Ye Yu into the sect.
All who passed the talent test entered the inner sect for further evaluation.
If talent was excellent, they could be directly chosen by elders as disciples.
Those with average talent had to start as outer sect disciples.
Entering the inner sect, Ye Yu saw on a high platform ahead ten demons radiating strong demonic aura.
Among them, one demoness completely captivated his gaze, making it impossible to look away.
