Jian Ming completely let loose after failing to cultivate immortality for nine lifetimes.
Ever since transmigrating into this cultivation world, Jian Ming had been nothing but an ordinary mortal with no golden finger. He lived in constant fear of offending a cultivator. Forget the big shots; even some random underling could make his life miserable.
At long last, he got a golden finger that let him be reborn. But after nine lives, his path to immortality had been nothing but one hardship after another.
Fine, fine, so you're messing with me, are you?
By his tenth life, who cared about cultivating immortality? No one could stop him from destroying the cultivation world! Jian Ming frantically gathered the people he'd identified as world-destroyers in his first nine lives. If he couldn't become an immortal, then neither could anyone else!
Jian Ming: "All right, I'll come clean. No more pretending. Why bother lying low? I know where all the rare treasures, blessed lands, cultivation secrets, and peerless talents are! I'm founding my own sect right now, this very minute. Even if I'm gone in a few years, I'll make sure my disciples destroy your entire cultivation world!"
Unexpectedly, after he let loose in this life, his cultivation journey went more and more smoothly. At this rate, he'd become the leader of the cultivation world!
And what about those world-destroying candidates he'd left to their own devices?
Candidate No. 1: A prodigy of a righteous sect, but a genius demon cultivator. In each of his first nine lives, he fell to the demonic path. Current corruption progress: 90%.
Candidate No. 2: A great demon returns. He looks fluffy, but he's got a short temper and is always ready to die alongside humanity.
Candidate No. 3: A gloomy youth expelled from his sect, growing increasingly twisted inside. His motto is, "If I can't have it, I'll destroy it." Under Jian Ming's manipulation, his swordsmanship has reached perfection. Corruption level: 90%.
Candidate No. 4...
Watching these candidates master their studies and threaten to surpass their teacher, all eager to put his teachings into practice, Jian Ming is frantic:
"Uh... I know you're excited, but don't rush into destroying the cultivation world just yet. How about competing for the job first?"
