[If the quality is too high, it requires more resources, which can easily lead to supply shortages. Qingyu has already started family planning...]

In 2929, you ascended to the twelfth level of the Heavenly Realm.

"Sure enough, as long as the system I choose is bad enough, I can even achieve a complete transformation every ten years!"

However, the improvement in both the "future" and the "essence" is negligible.

The only changes are that the prediction duration has increased to twelve hours, and the cap on the output of essential rewards and punishments has been increased from 89% to 90%.

"Could it be that if the rebuilt system is too poor, the changes in these two abilities will be very slight?" you ponder.

"Furthermore, the Bloodline Saint Body has always had a multiplier of 60. Is it because I haven't rebuilt my bloodline system that this multiplier won't increase?"

"Hmm... let's try again. No rush, no rush, only sixty years have passed in this lifetime."

[In 2931, you rebuilt it once again, this time creating your own Battle Qi system.]

The power cultivated is called battle qi, progressing from the weakest warrior to battle master, great battle master... battle saint, battle emperor.

The fifth realm is the Battle Emperor, which allows one to condense a Battle Emperor's body tens of thousands of feet tall.

You borrowed most of the knowledge from existing systems, and added a few of your own original elements.

"The kind with a 98.9% plagiarism rate."

It can be said that the Battle Qi system overlaps with systems such as Venerable Origin and True Soul. Too many similar systems mean you would need to collect hundreds of Dao Seals to synthesize a Dao Fruit.

[But that's alright. Right now, your only concern is having too few Dao Seals; you're not worried about having too many.]

[The Battle Qi System is an extraordinary system you meticulously crafted when you condensed your thirteenth incarnation; its Dao Seal quality is two points!]

[Well, it's not that you can't come up with something better, but if you want to meet the condition of rapid upgrades, the quality of the Dao Seal can't be much higher.]

[Unless, like with an operating system, negative effects such as reduced lifespan are added to mitigate the impact.]

But that would be too mentally taxing; it would give you a headache, and you'd be torturing yourself.

In 2936, you underwent the Nine Revolutions of Battle Venerable, advancing to the Half-Step Battle Saint realm.

"You even copied this?!"

"Are we going to see something like an Emperor-level Battle Soul or an Emperor-level Battle Body later on?"

[In 2938, you advanced to the Battle Emperor... uh, no, the War Emperor.]

[In 2940, you were condensing the Dao Seal.]

But an unexpected event occurred.

This matter is somewhat related to you.

Seventy years ago, Wang Laoji used your "Transforming Demons into Buddhas" divine skill to transform the "Soldier Clan" in the neighboring Hongyu, allowing them to transcend, change their bloodlines, and break free from their cages.

"Hongyu...is that the place where Old Eleven hunted down Devouring Beasts and used them as experience fruits for the Extreme Martial Arts System?"

The Flood Domain is a battleground for demons and monsters. Among them are only fourth-realm True Kings, none of whom possess fifth-realm True Kings. Therefore, even the weakest Thorn Demon King would be invincible in this domain.

But the Thorn Demon King followed your instructions, thanked you for sparing his life, and suppressed the bloodlust inherent in his race.

Instead of massacring the demon race, it first eliminated the disobedient demons, demanding peaceful coexistence between them.

At the same time, allow demons below the third realm to cultivate the "Buddha Transformation" system, fundamentally transforming them into naturally benevolent Buddhists.

This is a very good thing. The demons have become Buddhists, no longer bloodthirsty, and have even begun to eat vegetarian food, living peacefully with the demon race.

It should be noted that there are many naturally kind-hearted races among the demon race, who are willing to seek common ground while reserving differences and coexist peacefully with the demon race—especially now that the demon race has gained a fifth-realm ancestor.

The problem lies here.

Among the demon race, the truly powerful ones are the tigers, dragons, and leopards; they are carnivorous and their ferocity is hard to change.

During the period of war between demons and monsters, the entire demon race was united and acted as one against external enemies. The ferocity of tigers and leopards was mostly directed at demons (through tens of thousands of years of warfare, they had developed the skill of simply consuming the flesh and blood of demons without being corrupted).

[Now that the demons have suddenly become so nice... what will they eat? They can only eat other demons on their own side!]

[In the past, tiger demons also ate rabbit demons and deer demons, but back then the rabbit demons would tolerate it: the tiger clan was the main force in the fight against the demon clan. They ate rabbits, but only secretly on a small scale. They also fought the demon clan, while the demon clan would openly eat rabbits. So, for the sake of the bigger picture, they would pretend it never happened.]

"The principle of releasing people from prison to fight."

Yun Shou scratching his head—although the metaphor is not very apt, it conveys the general idea.

Unite the minor offenders to take down the major criminals.

[The demon race is in turmoil. In the past, it would have been considered good if the demons hadn't interfered, but now they are a Buddhist race, and the Thorn Demon King has taken your teachings to heart.]

They cried out, "Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"

"Why is it raining so heavily?"

"You should all get along peacefully!"

The tiger demon ignored him: "We're not going to eat you, what's the rush?"

They also attacked and killed some Buddhist monks who had ventured deep into the demon realm to try and appease them.

[Even the Buddha has an wrathful appearance, and the Buddhist community quickly realized a problem.]

These ferocious demons... need to be reformed!

[We need the Buddha's intervention to guide them towards good!]

They cannot be allowed to continue their ferocity. The Buddhist race must cooperate with the benevolent demon race to elevate those vicious demons to goodness!

Those who are unruly should be subdued and made Buddhist protectors, undergoing a Buddhist-style brainwashing.

Those who are truly wicked and whose sins are unforgivable shall also be suppressed beneath a ninety-nine-story pagoda, where they shall hear the Buddha's voice day and night.

Yun Shou: "..."

The Buddhist race has only existed for a few decades, and only demons below the third realm can transform into it. Therefore, the strongest Buddhists at present are only at the mid-third realm, making them quite weak.

However, they have a Fifth Realm Ancestor.

[The Buddha in their eyes—the Thorn Demon King.]

"Buddha is a demon, what a classic premise."

"Wait, no, I am the real Buddha!"

[What the Buddhists can't handle, Wang Laoji will!]

[The demons that the Buddhists can't cure, Wang Laoji will cure!]

[The peace that Buddhism cannot provide, Wang Laoji will!]

[The world is vast, but within the entire Hongyu Domain, Old Wang Ji is the greatest!]

Under the suppression of the Thorn Demon King, the ferocious demons suffered repeated defeats, and a group of powerful demons at the third and fourth realms were subdued, becoming mounts for Buddhist monks and being continuously reformed.

The remaining ones either choose to remain in the Flood Domain and be reformed into vegetarian, benevolent demons, or they have no choice but to flee the Flood Domain.

[And so, Jiang Yueli met with an accident.]

[The one who made the move was a powerful demon, not one of the remaining divine beast demons from the Azure Domain, but a powerful wolf demon from the Fourth Realm who had escaped from the neighboring "Hong Domain" (Chapter 438).]
