I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

Chapter 862 Coming out of seclusion

The back hill of the academy.

The gate to Ye Kang's cave slowly opened, the array was removed, and Ye Kang, who had changed into a set of black clothes, silently walked out.

His demeanor was calm and composed; the breakthrough did not make him any sharper, but rather made him more reserved.

However, his improvement in cultivation level was real. At this moment, he only needed to make a simple movement to understand the entire academy.

Although it was very impolite, Ye Kang couldn't help but try it.

Then, a gasp of surprise rang out from afar.

"Good heavens! You're out!"

Su Hongxiu suddenly ran over, her eyes wide, staring at Ye Kang in disbelief.

Although she had prepared herself, seeing this scene in person still felt unreal.

How long did it take this guy to achieve Nirvana?

This talent is terrifying!

And why is it that this guy's rebirth didn't make a sound at all? It was as simple as drinking water!

Before Su Hongxiu could question him, Ye Kang interrupted, "Master, I have successfully completed my mission and made a breakthrough."

"You... call this luck? Besides, you've now achieved Nirvana, so you're no longer a student of the academy, and you don't need to call me Head Scholar anymore. Just address me as Fellow Daoist."

Ye Kang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I greet Fellow Daoist Su."

He wasn't bothered by it. In the world of martial arts, cultivation level was everything. Since they were at the same level, their seniority and status were naturally different.

In other words, those guys who enrolled at the same time as me should now call me senior.

Of course, the sudden promotion in seniority made Su Hongxiu a little unhappy. Just as she was about to give him a talking-to, the system voice rang in Ye Kang's mind.

【Ding】

[Task Issued: Upgrade the Moon-Entwining Silk]

[Mission Requirements: Slay the Nirvana Realm Spider Demon King, absorb its spider silk bloodline, and fuse with its divine abilities]

[Task Reward: 1000000 Comprehension Points]

Ye Kang was immediately taken aback. The target of this mission was too obvious; it was clearly aimed at the Spider King in the Thousand Poison Swamp.

Previously, in the Unforgivable Secret Realm, the spider sent its demon kings to hunt him down.

This debt really needs to be settled.

He spoke first: "Fellow Daoist Su, I would like to make a trip to the Thousand Poison Swamp."

"Huh? Why?"

“I have a grudge, it’s time to settle it. I want to kill that Spider King.”

"You are crazy!"

Su Hongxiu exclaimed without hesitation, her expression full of surprise.

This kid has only just been reborn, how come he's already getting cocky?

How long has the Spider King been promoted to Demon King? Why does he seem like an easy target in your mouth?

Just as she was about to give them a scolding, a faint voice suddenly sounded behind them.

"Why not? If you want to go, then go."

"what!"

The two turned around and saw Su Zhongjing standing with his hands behind his back, smiling contentedly.

Ye Kang's heart tightened. He hadn't even noticed the man's arrival. Was this a powerhouse in the Returning to Truth Realm?

He quickly cupped his hands in greeting: "Greetings, General!"

"It's alright." Su Zhongjing waved his hand.

“I will go to the Thousand Poison Swamp with you, but I will not interfere in the feud between you and the Spider Queen. Similarly, you can only kill her; the other Demon Queens are off-limits. I will handle the rest.”

"Thank you for your kindness, General!"

Ye Kang was surprised that Su Zhongjing would agree so readily. Was he taking this opportunity to test his strength?

That's good. With the general protecting us, at least we don't have to worry about those old demons in the Thousand Poison Swamp.

However, upon hearing this, Su Hongxiu gritted her teeth in displeasure.

"General Su, aren't you spoiling him a little too much?"
