## Chapter 1640 – Chronicles of the Black-Haired Foreigner – Heavenly Demon Murim

With this, I’ve roughly grasped the core common sense of this world.

This world is nothing more than a place exploited by Taoists and immortals, where most humans are merely consumed like livestock.

If you’re unlucky enough to be born into such a world, you have no choice but to live your entire life as a slave.

In other words, the only real humans are the Taoists of powerful families and their successors. There may be some humans who live relatively well beneath them, but fundamentally, they’re as fragile as flies, and those down in the commoner class are no different from slaves.

“Hey, you Four Rivers Taoist. Are there Taoists who don’t use alchemy?”
“That… I’m not sure. If you look, there might be some, but becoming an immortal without alchemy is unimaginable…”
“I see.”

—Grasp.

I immediately grabbed the guy’s head and performed a mind scan.

—Whoosh.

White flames flickered from my hand, and his thoughts and knowledge were conveyed in fragments. As a result, most of what I learned through interrogation was true.

Fucking awful.

No wonder the Demonic Cult wanted to burn the world. But those bastards wanted to burn all the ordinary people in the existing world too, so they’re no different from the Taoists.

“Well, while I’m here, should I shut down the murder factories in this city?”

I’m planning to find that Emperor guy, but I’ll take care of some things first. To change a world like this, you have to change the common sense and social structure itself.

It’s not difficult.

All I have to do is spread the beautiful ideology of Fusion Confucianism. If I show them power and salvation, 99% of the people living in this hell will be ecstatic. If I establish Fusion Confucianism starting with that, I can create a sensible world.

“I know there are facilities that butcher humans to make ingredients for alchemy. How many are there in this city?”
“…I don’t know. My underlings handle everything.”
“Really?”
“That’s the truth.”

He really doesn’t know.

Even this bastard doesn’t know how many murder factories are operating. I continue to scan him.

“You son of a bitch.”

He’s just someone who gives orders.

He just gives orders, and his underlings automatically mass-produce the core ingredients needed for alchemy. The Four Rivers Taoist receives the results, processes them to completion, and then consumes them to cultivate and raise his level.

His cultivation is really easy, huh? He dumps all the troublesome stuff on his underlings and just takes the fruit.

“The division of labor is incredible.”

There’s even an educational institution that teaches alchemy. This institution thoroughly breaks down alchemy into `parts` and teaches them to students, turning them into production workers who produce primary, secondary, and tertiary materials.

This alchemy is so complex that it requires a lot of hands.

If the countless materials scattered throughout the world, including humans, are called primary materials, they are combined to create secondary materials, which are then combined to create tertiary materials. From there, they go through more bullshit to create the final material, which the Taoist directly combines to create elixirs.

The educational institution teaches how to refine these raw materials.

Of course, because they learned alchemy in a thorough division of labor, becoming a Taoist is impossible. To become a Taoist, you need to know hundreds or thousands of things. But students only learn one or two things and spend their lives making only those.

They’re really good at being bad. They’re subcontracting and subcontracting and subcontracting. Even murder.

“Hey, Taoist. I have another question.”
“What is it…?”
“Does your family keep producing Taoists?”
“Yes. A family is… something that continuously produces Taoists…”
“A Taoist production facility, then.”

Taoists gain power by using it, and the powerful families in this world use that power to produce more Taoists.

“But doesn’t it all become meaningless once you become an immortal? Why maintain a family? After becoming an immortal, you can come here and kill all the Taoists and families to eliminate your rivals.”
“The, the Immortal Realm isn’t exactly peaceful. Only immortals from the same family…”
“Can trust each other and form alliances, I see.”

That’s why they leave the families in this lower realm alone.

“Ah, so. If an immortal arbitrarily destroys another family in the lower realm?”
“Of course… you’ll make a very big enemy of them.”

I get the atmosphere.

—Tss.

Thinking that, I released the barrier.

“Uwaaaaaaaagh!”
“Uh, uh!”
“Oooooooooh!”

The palace was in ruins, and I returned to the real world with the Four Rivers Taoist. People saw us appear from the palace ruins and were so surprised that they prostrated themselves, slamming their foreheads on the ground.

“Good.”

I’ve roughly grasped the power of the Taoist bastards. Now I can identify who is a Taoist and who isn’t on a very broad scale.

And I’ve also grasped the power that makes up this world to some extent. My vision is clearer than before. Then I can give orders now.

“Heavenly Demon Ultra Vision.”

—Chwaaaaaa!

Light burst from my eyes, and all the information about the Four Rivers Province area flowed into my head.

“Sugarcane Field Deployment.”

I created a barrier large enough to cover this entire space.

“Come forth, vanguard of inhuman anti-imperialism.”

—Whoosh!
—Whoosh!
—Whoooooooooosh!

I made sugarcanes imbued with the blood of imperialism sprout.

“Uh, uh?”
“Uh uh?”
“Uh, uh, uh?”

The entire Four Rivers Province was now inside my barrier. Suddenly, giant otherworldly plants began to grow rapidly on the ground, on the walls, and on the roofs of buildings, and everyone began to panic.

—Snap.

The moment I snapped my fingers.

—Whoooooosh!
—Pop pop!

Abnormally large fruits swelled explosively from the sugarcane stalks, and muscular black soldiers, two meters tall, tore through the fruits and crawled out.

“Khaaaaaaaa!”
“Kuaaaaaaa!”
“Kuoohhhhhhhhh!”

The unleashed vanguard of anti-imperialism roared.

“Wh-what are those demonic things…!”

The Four Rivers Taoist shouted in surprise at the sight of the black soldiers. Then should I awaken the consciousness of the World Tree, which has been dormant for a long time?

—Rustle.

The World Tree’s form was constructed like a hologram, and she opened her eyes as soon as it was completed.

“…This world is.”
“Yeah. It’s not our world. The task is simple, World Tree. Punish all the evil ones in this space.”
“Understood.”

I completely transfer command of the black soldiers to the summoned World Tree.

—Crack!
—Crack!

At the same time, dragonfly-like wings sprout from the black soldiers’ shoulder blades.

—Whoosh!

The muscle-bound figures who gained wings soared into the sky. Now, under the command of the World Tree, they will destroy all the human factories in the Four Rivers Province and slaughter the people involved in those facilities.

“Subjugate all the souls of the killed bastards to the barrier. I’ll use them later to create new black soldiers.”
“Efficient. I will do so.”

It’s easy because the World Tree listens well.

“Then shall we go to the Emperor?”
“Hnghk…!”

But when I looked, the Four Rivers Taoist was completely terrified, hugging himself in a kneeling position and making fear-stricken moans. His eyes were completely panicked.

“Hehehe, you’ve killed so many people, yet you’re afraid of such things?”
“Wh-who the hell are you! Who are you to command those demons of hell!”

Even Taoists are afraid of demons of hell, huh?

“Didn’t I tell you? I’m Kim Kat, the Heavenly Demon from another world. The Demonic Cult tried to summon their god but accidentally summoned me.”
“That…! Those Demonic Cult bastards…!”
“Anyway, you’re coming with me.”

I need someone to keep by my side to ask questions from time to time. I’ll kill him after I finish everything at the end.

—Grasp!

I immediately grabbed the guy’s hair and shouted!

“Hold on tight!”
“Kyaaak! Wh-where should I hold on to!”
“What? You fucking bitch! I’m talking to myself, why are you making a fuss! Then hold on tight!”

I grabbed the Four Rivers Taoist’s hair like the handle of a bundle and flew towards where the Emperor was!

—Swoooooosh!

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

The Four Rivers Taoist dangled like a pendant!

“Hmm.”

I already heard the Emperor’s location, and because I spread my senses, I could roughly sense where he was. But not only the Emperor, but also the presence of Taoists was sensed here and there.

“I have to kill them all on the way.”

It won’t take long, so let’s kill them all quickly and go!

“Secret Royal Inspector is here!!!”

There are really a lot of bastards to kill!

* * *

“Ugh, you son of a bitches. You really killed a lot.”

I slaughtered all seven Taoists who were on the way to the capital. I didn’t even talk to them, but they were all garbage bastards.

“Hnghk! Why are you keeping me alive!”
“To kill you last.”

Seeing only these hopeless bastards, I missed my wives and children so much. People should live beautifully while seeing only good things. To think such a hopeless place exists.

First, I’ll talk to the Emperor, and then I’ll figure out how to get to the Immortal Realm and go home once. I have to let them know my situation.

As I was flying like that.

“Oh. Is this the capital?”

As expected of the town where the one called Emperor lives in this cruel world of exploitation, the quality of the splendor is different. It seemed like a place created after hundreds of years of exploiting tremendous labor.

The splendid buildings were towering, and rare decorations were set up everywhere.

Without further ado, I go to the biggest imperial palace!

“I feel it! The aura of Taoists!”

I body-checked the imperial palace!

—Kwaang!

I invaded the place where those bastards were gathered!

“Wh-who are you!”

A number of Taoists were gathered with servants, as if they were in a meeting. The center of that place! A guy who looked like an Emperor was sitting on that splendid throne!

“Are you the Emperor of this world!”
“…!”
“I, Kim Kat, the righteous hero Heavenly Demon, have come to ask you evil bastards for your sins!”

—Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
