Versatile Mage: Soul and Demon Dual Cultivation

In Tiandou City, a man exuding an aura of evil stepped through the gates of Shrek Academy. His expression was gloomy, his eyes bloodshot, and his brow furrowed with intense murderous intent!

This man was none other than Tang San, the once high and mighty God King. Ever since his fall from grace and the emergence of toxins within his Blue Silver Grass spirit, Tang San had ventured into the Sunset Forest in search of immortal herbs. Alas, the herbs were nowhere to be found. In the face of life and death, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass awakened a devouring attribute, instantly resolving the spirit's toxic issues that had plagued him.

Subsequently, Tang San continuously hunted and devoured spirit beasts, becoming a Soul Grandmaster in three days and a Soul King in eight. He had believed that he was once again ascending to the peak of his life, but unexpected new problems arose.

Tang San's spirit power level was attained through devouring, resulting in chaotic spirit power within his body and an exceptionally unstable foundation.

Furthermore, Tang San's soul underwent a massive transformation. Evil, irritability, rage, greed, and bloodlust were just some of the many negative emotions that continuously eroded his soul.

Despite Tang San possessing the Xuan Tian Gong, a cultivation method from the Daoist school, it was of no use in the face of such a situation.

With his ten thousand years of cultivation experience, Tang San naturally understood what was happening. How could he allow himself to become a true evil spirit master?

The Blue Silver Grass's true form was that of a plant spirit. Absorbing spirit rings from animals was not a fatal problem. Different attributes and origins would still amplify the spirit. However, his first four spirit rings were all from attributes completely opposed to its original nature, causing these evil attributes to suppress the life essence of the Blue Silver Grass.

Fortunately, he still possessed the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, preventing the complete collapse of his body's life essence!

However, Tang San was too eager for quick success, relying on devouring to raise his spirit power level by nearly twenty ranks in a short period. This sent him down the path of a fallen spirit master, never to return.

Of course, Tang San's confidence stemmed entirely from his plan to awaken the Blue Silver Emperor and attach its innate spirit ring when adding his fifth spirit ring. Once the Blue Silver Emperor was awakened, all the problems he faced would be readily resolved!!!

However, his ideals were beautiful, but reality was cruel. After Tang San's spirit power level reached the fiftieth rank, he endured numerous discomforts and went to the Blue Silver Forest. But he never imagined that within the Blue Silver Forest, there wasn't even a single ordinary Blue Silver Grass to be seen, let alone the Blue Silver King.

Despite this, Tang San was not discouraged. Like an unkillable cockroach, he grew more courageous with each setback. Tang San used his Blue Silver Grass spirit to sense and search for the Blue Silver King!!!

Unfortunately, fate was not on his side. Tang San's Blue Silver Grass had turned into a Dark Blue Silver Grass, losing its ability to sense other Blue Silver Grass. Only then did Tang San realize that his cleverness had led him down a path of no return in this life.

It must be said that Tang San was a ruthless character. After realizing that he couldn't turn back, he immediately decided to go all the way, continuing to devour without a word.

As Tang San's spirit power level increased, his devouring ability also greatly improved. In just three days, Tang San forcibly raised his spirit power level to the 59th rank. However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't continue to improve.

In less than half a month, Tang San forcibly raised his spirit power level by nearly thirty ranks by devouring spirit beasts.

This led to the complete disappearance of the little remaining life essence in the Blue Silver Grass spirit. Furthermore, the spirit power that Tang San obtained through devouring was chaotic and unstable, creating a huge bottleneck at the fifty-ninth rank. It was almost impossible for him to advance to the sixtieth rank. The growth potential of the Blue Silver Grass had been destroyed, and his spirit had now become a true Dark Blue Silver Grass. Unless the Dark Blue Silver Grass advanced into a Dark Blue Silver King, or Tang San attached a spirit ring to his second spirit—the Clear Sky Hammer—he would never become a Soul Emperor in this life!!!

Having inexplicably turned his Blue Silver Grass spirit into a useless spirit, Tang San was filled with resentment. He, Tang San, was once a high and mighty God King, but now he had become an evil spirit master that everyone wanted to kill.

Tang San blamed heaven and earth, but the ones he resented the most were Lin Chen and Yu Xiaogang. Lin Chen's sudden appearance had changed the original trajectory of the Douluo Continent, repeatedly seizing opportunities that belonged to him. In Tang San's heart, Lin Chen deserved to die long ago.

As for Yu Xiaogang, he pretended to understand when he didn't. He was just a half-baked Soul Grandmaster who couldn't even solve his own problems. Tang San had long discovered the inconsistencies in the details from his previous life. The theoretical master Yu Xiaogang didn't even know about the soul tremors of ten-thousand-year spirit beasts.

Many changes had occurred in this life. Just because he lost the Eight Spider Lances, Yu Xiaogang's theories forcibly caused his Blue Silver Emperor to develop spirit poison. If Lin Chen deserved to die, then Yu Xiaogang deserved to be torn to pieces!!!

Tang San wanted revenge, but the thought of Lin Chen filled him with a deep sense of powerlessness. The most terrifying enemy was the unknown one. He didn't understand Lin Chen at all.

He would pick the soft persimmon first. He couldn't afford to provoke Lin Chen, but taking care of a Soul Grandmaster like Yu Xiaogang was easy for him. So, he would kill Yu Xiaogang first!!!!!

This hypocritical, fame-stealing scoundrel truly deserved to die!!!!!

......

The current Shrek Academy was a far cry from its original vibrancy, now filled with a deathly stillness.

Due to Lin Chen's appearance, the original Shrek Seven Devils had long since fallen apart. With the expansion of enrollment at Tianwen Academy, most of the teachers and students from the original Lanba Academy had gone to Tianwen Academy. Now, the only teachers left in the academy were Liu Erlong and the old guard who followed Flender. There were even fewer students. With Tang San gone, the only students left in the academy were Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, and Jiang Zhu. The once lively Shrek Academy had become desolate and the atmosphere was quite strange.

As for the divine master Yu Xiaogang, he had a big fight with Flender after returning from outside the academy three days ago.

The main reason was because Flender and all the teachers and students had hidden the matter of the "Encyclopedia of Spirit Cultivation" from him!

Yu Xiaogang vented all his negative emotions on Flender, and then hid in his dormitory.

The "Encyclopedia of Spirit Cultivation" was all the rage in the Douluo Continent. How could paper contain fire?

Yu Xiaogang discovered the truth after just one trip outside!

After verifying the techniques in the "Encyclopedia of Spirit Cultivation", Yu Xiaogang completely broke down. The invincible theories he once took pride in had become the subject of gossip!

His good brother was acting with everyone else to hide it from him, treating him like a monkey.

Yu Xiaogang knew that he had become a fake master that everyone wanted to beat.
