Chapter 240: Sentient Willpower • Four Dimensions +1!

Under Su Yang’s persuasive language, they successfully managed to persuade the injured Taoist to hand over the pills early.
Originally, Su Yang had only wanted to give it a try and didn’t think it would necessarily succeed.
Now, it seemed that in this woven closed-loop world, while all events were predetermined, it also confirmed a saying: the overall situation cannot be changed, but the minor situations can. Under the influence of the power of the rules, the closed-loop world had its own consciousness. This consciousness could be seen as a pre-programmed code, but it also contained their emotions.
Su Yang realized this after helping Doctor Liu. If everything in the closed-loop world was unchangeable, Doctor Liu wouldn’t have assisted them multiple times just because Su Yang had helped him a bit more.
This insight indicated that although the closed-loop world was artificially constructed, every character within it had their own thoughts and emotions. Some events were inevitable, but within those parameters, there was still room for change.
It was this understanding that made Su Yang choose to use words to persuade the injured Taoist.
After receiving the seven pills from the injured Taoist, Su Yang swallowed one himself. Then, he took the Life-Returning Grass from his chest and handed it to the injured Taoist.
The injured Taoist, despite his severe injuries, now had a smile on his face.
Just as Su Yang handed over the Life-Returning Grass to the injured Taoist:
The seven individuals simultaneously unleashed their respective spells, enveloping the injured Taoist.
At that very moment, a shimmering magical barrier appeared around the injured Taoist’s body.
It resisted the attacks of the group, but only for a brief moment before shattering.
“What are you doing?” The injured Taoist’s face turned pale.
What were they doing?
Can’t you see?
Of course, they were dealing with you!
The answer he had been waiting for came in the form of the starfire giant sword river conjured by Su Yang’s thought.
One starfire giant sword after another converged into a river and struck Taoists.
Taoists no longer had his magical shield, and that illusory shield shattered in an instant. Added to his severe injuries, he had barely a breath’s time to react.
If Su Yang couldn’t unleash an uninterrupted barrage of attacks, Taoists would have had time to respond. Unfortunately, Su Yang’s attacks were relentless, continuously assaulting the injured Taoist like tidal waves.
After several breaths had passed, all that remained on the scene was the injured Taoist’s lifeless body.
They had successfully taken down the injured Taoist, who was at the fifth level of Qi Refinement.
Their own strength was only at the first level of Qi Refinement. Even with the injured Taoist’s severe injuries, under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t have been able to contend with him. After all, their strength could muster at most one spell, and then they needed time to recover.
That time would have been enough for the injured Taoist to react.
Unfortunately, among these ordinary cultivators, there was an anomaly – Su Yang. This ensured the injured Taoist’s inevitable demise.
After successfully dispatching the injured Taoist, a collective sigh of relief escaped the group. Based on their experiences in the closed-loop world so far, the injured Taoist had turned out to be more of a threat in the end, unable to offer any real help.
He would fuse with the demonic spirits and, in the end, turn on them, using them as nourishment.
Now that they had taken down the injured Taoist, they had effectively mitigated the final part of the crisis a bit earlier.
As for the matter of having the injured Taoist refine elixirs for them, they could delegate it to Doctor Liu without any losses.
All in all, it was most suitable to eliminate the injured Taoist during this time period, benefiting them the most. They had already reaped all the rewards they were due.
After dispatching the injured Taoist, Su Yang felt a sense of satisfaction wash over him. Even though he knew this was just a constructed closed-loop world, he had no desire to experience setbacks.
If he suffered a loss with one step, he would seek revenge the next. Su Yang didn’t believe in the saying “A gentleman takes revenge ten years later.” He preferred to exact revenge immediately.
After taking down the injured Taoist, Su Yang began searching the corpses. It was a new experience for him, and he hoped that in this closed-loop world, searching the corpses might yield something useful.
After a thorough search, Su Yang did find something that seemed somewhat useful:
[Demonic Fusion Token]
Status: Temporary
Level: First Stage, Four-Dimensional
Quality: Medium
Function 1: Perfect Fusion – Can achieve perfect fusion with weakened demonic spirits, gaining their power without being influenced by them.
Function 2: Forced Fusion – Can forcibly fuse with demonic spirits, but the degree of influence is determined by the disparity in strength between the user and the demonic spirit.
Limitation 1: Function 1 cannot be used on demonic spirits that surpass the user by more than three small realms; Function 2 cannot be used on demonic spirits that surpass the user by more than one small realm.
Limitation 2: Usable within “Closed-Loop World: Survive for One Day.”
Crimson Sun Bell
Status: Temporary
Level: First Stage, Four-Dimensional
Quality: Medium
Function: Can amplify the power of spells up to threefold for cultivators below the sixth level of Qi Refinement.
Limitation: Usable within “Closed-Loop World: Survive for One Day.”
Upon searching the body of the injured Taoist, Su Yang found two items that appeared to be of some use.
The first item, the Demonic Fusion Token, seemed to be the reason for the injured Taoist’s fusion with demonic spirits.
It appeared that he had forcibly used Function 2 to fuse with demonic spirits, and given Taoist’s strength, he was clearly no match for demonic spirits at the sixth level of Qi Refinement.
Moreover, there had been clear negative effects from the influence of the demonic spirits on Taoist last night..
