Wei Jun opened his eyes and looked inside his Qi core. He hadn't been inside of there in a long time. The universe that was covered in strings of flame coursing through the entirety of it.

It was a sight to see for sure but Wei Jun was not focused on that at the moment. He ignored the pulsating strings and looked at the small bead in the middle of the universe. The solidified section.

Core solidification had taken a good amount of Wei Jun's time but his core hadn't even been half solidified let alone full. That was why even though his control was immense, the expenditure of his Qi was massive.

Wei Jun closed his eyes and opened them again, this time, finding himself surrounded by black flames. Another universe. A dark universe. A universe of death.

His Death Qi core.

Wei Jun looked around to see nothing like a solidified core here. There was no core solidification for this one. That was when he realized what he was doing wrong. His main weapon was his Death Qi yet he had never paid any attention to it.

The problem, when arrived at that conclusion, was that whenever he'd attempt to do so, he'd always end up solidifying the yang Qi core, not the Death Qi one.

'It's in the way.' Wei Jun concluded.

"Pick one path and stick to it. Try another only when it fails or you arrive at its end." Wei Jun repeated the words of his brother. He had never seen his brother fail but that was because it was his brother in that scenario.

When he was the one concerned, Wei Jun needed to make sure he could do it and he just realized that he couldn't.

He couldn't juggle multiple powers at once. Since the beginning, the system had said the same thing, just in different words. Where the system was a genius when it came to the study of Qi, Wei Jun was a genius when it came to the control of Qi and his state of mind.

They were geniuses in different aspects. So why was Wei Jun trying to follow the system's aspect. Why was he thinking of having three cultivation techniques just because the system allowed him to?

Wei Jun opened his eyes again and looked at the two cores from far away. One ruly and erratic, and one was tame, calm and serene.

[Would you like to abolish your current cultivation technique?]

[Yes\\No]

[Warning]

[Doing so would erase your current core]

[Such an action can lead to Qi deviation]

Wei Jun looked at the two cores from far away and simply uttered, 'Yes'.

Just as he did, the core of yang Qi began to shake, and it soon got to the intense rumbling as if an earthquake was occurring. The Yang Qi's solidified core was absolving, freeing all of the Qi in his core.

His Qi was no longer restricted. It was free to wreak havoc in his body. It was free to go anywhere in his body.

[HP -10]

[...]

The green power in his heart immediately moved as soon as it sensed damage to Wei Jun but even then, the damage that had been caused to Wei Jun was massive. At least half of his Qi was gone before the green power could take action but that suddenly stopped as well. The requirement was to use the yang Qi to heal Wei Jun.

How was that supposed to happen when Yang Qi was the very thing inflicting damage upon Wei Jun? It was impossible to heal him.

The Yang Qi could only continue to destroy Wei Jun's body. But, Wei Jun wasn't worried in the least. Just like the Yang Qi was now free of his control, he wasn't controlling his Death Qi core to stay away from the Yang Qi anymore either.

"Shaa!!!"

Like a ferocious animal screaming, the Death Qi immediately moved and began to devour the Yang Qi. The very Yang that was wreaking havoc in his body was now running away in fright, finding any corner it could to hide or escape Wei Jun's body.

But, death was persistent. It was quick. It was relentless.

It couldn't escape.

[Death Qi +100]

[Qi: 0]

Wei Jun's stats changed for the better or for worse, he didn't know. All he did know was that he had chosen death as his set path and now he was going to walk on it.

Forever.

Or at least until he arrived at the end.

[Are you sure?]

[You'll be branded as an evil cultivator forever]

'There's an answer for that as well.'

Before he became a Qi grandmaster, he remembered the system saying that he could hide his Qi signatures when needed. He just needed practice for that.

Wei Jun opened his eyes and looked at Tanya who had just appeared before him, looking at the unsettling scene before her... before him.

Scores of dead bodies and streams of blood flowed throughout the capital. All the soldiers who stood against him were dead, even those who ran away weren't spared. Each and every one of them was killed. Killed at the hands of the man who kept his eyes closed the entire time.

Tanya raised her hand and aimed it at Wei Jun.

[High Heal has been cast on the user]

[Skill rejection has been stopped]

[HP has been fully restored]

"Teach me." Wei Jun said as soon as he looked at Tanya and added, "Teach me how to become one with your power and become... itself."

Tanya looked at him for a while before she raised her hand once again and brought it to her head. She took off her hood and looked at him, her deep sea-green eyes staring at him. Her beauty outmatched any other Wei Jun had ever seen but at the moment, his eyes weren't focused on her beauty but on the veins traveling through her light green eyes.

"Follow me once you're done here." Tanya said and left. Wei Jun looked at the trembling king before him and then at the people gathered in the plaza. Nobles, merchants, and anyone who held any influence or even a house in the capital was gathered. Nobels and commoners were the same as Wei Jun, in front of all of them, raised his dagger and brought it down on the king who was kneeling before him.

Wei Jun cleaved the king in half and then turned to the people, his deep dark eyes looked at them with no emotion inside of them.

"Remember this day. The day I, Damien Smith, destroyed your kingdom And I do hope, you remember it for eternity. For your own sakes." Wei Jun said.

Although his voice was very low, everyone in the plaza could hear him. Wei Jun simply looked at the different variety of people. Women he had widowed. Children, he had orphaned. Elders who had lost their children.

He could see the hate in their eyes. And that was why, he knew for sure that they'd remember him forever. And that was why...

[Quest complete]

[You have successfully left your name in the world]

[You have successfully distorted the fate of the world 'Arcadia']

[You have been rewarded with massive experience points]

[You have leveled up...]

[You have leveled...]

[You have...]

[You...]

Wei Jun could feel the power coursing through his veins as the power of the dark dragon assimilated with his body, increasing his physical stats with each level increase.

Wei Jun simply took a deep breath and looked up at the sky while the system notifications kept appearing in his view in droves.

"Have I properly paved the path now?"

He didn't know. But he'd sure like to know if he was right or not. He'd like to know if all his effort was in vain or if there was some benefit to it.

If 'he' would take benefit from it.

Far away from where Wei Jun was, in the depth of the castle that was the main base for those who worshipped the dark dragon Guardian, inside of a door, was an entirely different space.

In that space was a city were only wyverns in there human form lived. In the middle of that city was a giant castle that was nothing like a castle from the inside.

Inside that castle, deep in the middle of it, was a red haired man who sat cross legged, his eyes closed but he suddenly opened them.

A smirk appeared on his face as he muttered, "He's finally done it."

The cracks could be seen in the sky, cracks that couldn't be seen by a normal eye. And in that crack, the red-haired man known as Seraph could see a pair of golden eyes looking back at him.

"Do you think you have won with this stunt, child?"

The owner of the golden eyes asked in a heavy tone.

Hearing his question, Seraph only smiled and said...

"This is just the beginning of my victory. Do wait. There is more to come."

"Foolish child." The owner of the golden eyes said in a contemptuous voice.

"Perhaps," Seraph didn't refute those words but then he looked at the pair of golden eyes and said, "But I will not let you destroy another world."

Seraph didn't talk back anymore and muttered, "Begin process of return and transportation. Selected souls..."

"Richard."

"Martha."

"Augustus."

"Tanya."

"Diemvile."
