[Decisive and Ruthless] [Grind Your Enemies to Dust] [Vanquish Demons and Banish Evil] [Extreme Benevolence] [Merit-Based Stat Points] [Virtue from the Underworld, in Medicine, in Speech, in Public Conduct... It All Counts!]
Qin Yang transmigrates into a cultivation world overrun by calamities, evil spirits, and demons. As the young sect master of the Haoran Sect, he never expected his sect to face annihilation from the start. The sect master has vanished into thin air, and even the sect's patriarch and its other top fighters have mysteriously disappeared!
To make matters worse, a horde of demons attacks from the start, bent on wiping the Haoran Sect off the map!
Just as he is overwhelmed, Qin Yang obtains a Merit Statue. As long as he accumulates merit by doing good deeds, he can allocate points to improve himself.
As a man of public virtue, Qin Yang emerges from seclusion and slays every demon until not a trace remains.
…
[Reunite a father and son who are demons of soul-guiding at the underworld, Merit +8]
Qin Yang: “Wait, virtue from the underworld counts too?”
[Persuade a woman of the pleasure quarters to mend her ways, Merit +4]
Qin Yang: “So that's what virtue in speech means.”
[Refine a Ninefold Abyss Soul-Devouring Pill for the Demon Emperor, helping him lose all his cultivation, Merit +16]
Qin Yang: “Right, this must be virtue in medicine!”
…
Merit Statue: “Obviously, my intentions were good. This kid just went about it the wrong way!”
Qin Yang: “I understand now. If my heart is as clear as a mirror, then everything I do must be a good deed!”
…
From then on, Qin Yang vanquishes demons and banishes evil at every turn, setting off down the one-way road of “winning people over with (martial) virtue”!
Countless ages later, Qin Yang stands proudly above the clouds, gazing down at a cultivation world cleansed of evil and demons and moving toward the Great Unity. He is filled with satisfaction.
“Just as I thought. In this cultivation world, the virtuous deserve to rule…”

“From Vanquishing Demons to Becoming a Sage Through Merit”
