"Sen... Senior?!"
The Wu Xi Great Emperor gazed at the crimson eyes before him, his body trembling uncontrollably as he felt fear. Was this the great terror?
He dared not speak further.
Chen Xia lightly raised his hand, placing it on his knee. His crimson eyes lowered as he calmly replied.
"I was merely in secluded cultivation. Why are you making such a commotion?"
The Wu Xi Great Emperor hastily apologized respectfully, "Wu Xi has not seen Senior for a long time. I came today specifically to report on recent matters. I did not expect to disturb Senior's seclusion. It is my fault."
"Very well," Chen Xia shook his head. "After all, you're only a Great Emperor. I didn't expect you to accomplish anything noteworthy. Go ahead and tell me what you've been up to lately."
The Wu Xi Great Emperor quickly responded respectfully.
"The Xu Zhen that Senior asked me to look after has reached the realm of Saint. With the current chaos in the world, I had her Fuyao Immortal Sect close their doors for cultivation. She should be able to become a Zhun Di."
"Is that all?" Chen Xia asked again.
"Y-yes..." the Wu Xi Great Emperor stammered.
Chen Xia let out a cold laugh, murderous intent suddenly blooming in his crimson eyes as he spoke in a deep voice.
"Hah, I thought you had accomplished something significant to wake me up so noisily. It turns out it was just such trivial matters."
This killing intent permeated the realm, as if the Way of Heaven had descended directly, causing the Wu Xi Great Emperor's soul to tremble and nearly shatter.
In this Great Death Realm, Chen Xia was an nearly invincible existence.
The Wu Xi Great Emperor hurriedly bowed, no longer speaking. Though he possessed a Great Emperor's divine sense, he was still utterly powerless before Chen Xia.
"Fine," Chen Xia suddenly relented, shaking his head. "I've long known you weren't of much use. I didn't expect you to accomplish anything noteworthy anyway."
His crimson eyes blinked again as he continued.
"But I won't go back on my word. I said I would give you an opportunity, so I will."
He slightly raised the hand resting on his knee, gently flicking his fingers forward.
The will of the Great Death Realm descended as the light of the current era, infused with the power of the realm and the Way of Heaven. Starlight gathered, space distorted, and time slowed, all without a sound.
It was but an instant, yet it felt like countless years had passed.
A Saint's enlightenment and a Great Emperor's attainment of the Way could not escape the word "Dao".
The Way of Heaven was the greatest Dao.
Do you dare to comprehend it?
Can you comprehend it?
In this Great Death Realm, with Chen Xia's permission, one could touch upon a hair's breadth of it.
It was unclear how much time had passed.
Perhaps an instant, perhaps tens of thousands of years.
When the Wu Xi Great Emperor regained his divine sense, he felt as if he had been reborn. His long-stagnant progress towards the Second Tier had suddenly advanced by leaps and bounds. He was now just a small step away from becoming a Second Tier Great Emperor!
He looked at Chen Xia with a fanatical expression, kowtowing respectfully as he spoke with utter conviction.
"This junior Wu Xi thanks Senior for bestowing this opportunity. For the rest of my life, I am willing to go through fire and water for Senior!"
Chen Xia's crimson eyes were filled with disdain as he waved his hand.
"There's no need for you to go through fire and water. You're not qualified for that. Just do well what I've instructed you to do."
"This was merely a small opportunity, useful only to ordinary Great Emperors like yourself. Once you complete the tasks I've given you, I'll bestow a greater opportunity upon you."
The words "greater opportunity" made the Wu Xi Great Emperor's heart race with excitement. He kowtowed again in gratitude, a constant smile on his face as he felt his current progress in the Dao.
"Go back now," Chen Xia said indifferently.
The Wu Xi Great Emperor hurriedly took his leave.
Chen Xia was left alone in the Great Death Realm. He stood up, standing on the small celestial body and gazing at the dim firmament, his crimson eyes gleaming.
At this moment, he was naturally not the Seed of Dao, but rather the heart demon that had somehow returned once again.
Perhaps it was because the main soul had fallen dormant and could no longer suppress his existence, causing him to be restored along with the Great Death Realm due to their shared origin with the Seed of Dao.
Of course, this was just one possibility. The specifics remained unknown.
The Seed of Dao clasped his hands behind his back, looking at the vast sky and brilliant stars. His crimson eyes blinked once as he suddenly sighed.
"The main body slumbers, my path is so lonely!"
In the Great Heaven.
Chen Xia frowned, his thoughts slightly stirring as if he had sensed some change, yet it did not manifest outwardly.
He frowned and asked Emperor Capital.
"Do you feel anything strange?"
"Yes," Emperor Capital nodded solemnly.
"Where?" Chen Xia's expression also turned serious.
Emperor Capital pointed behind him and said seriously, "Qiu Li didn't scold me today. I find it very strange. Do you have any clues?"
"Is it possible that he simply didn't want to scold you?" Chen Xia asked in return.
"Not ruled out," Emperor Capital nodded, then added, "But the probability is very low."
"Emperor Capital, are you brain-dead? I told you to go investigate the whereabouts of the former Blue Sky Sword Sea cultivators. Why the hell did you fill in so much information about dead people? What, are you planning to dig them all up?"
Emperor Capital was stunned for a moment, then nodded solemnly to Chen Xia.
"Now there's nothing strange anymore."
"Six," Chen Xia commented.
"We've found thirty-seven cultivators from the Blue Sky Sword Sea. The highest cultivation is Saint, and the lowest is peak Sea Inversing Realm. When should we go find them?"
This was Li Yang asking.
"Anytime is fine. Let's capture those few Saints first," Chen Xia nodded.
The group then began to strategize.
Among the Fourteen Sons of Vast Sky, a total of seven had reached Saint realm. Four were currently in the small house, leaving three others: Huang Can, Jia Bai, and Hu Linye.
Li Yang began to introduce them to Chen Xia, "You know Huang Can and Jia Bai. They were part of the Fourteen Sons of Vast Sky from that battle ten thousand years ago."
"Which one?" Chen Xia asked, puzzled.
"The one where you collected spirit stones from everyone," Li Yue suddenly said resentfully from the side, as she had also paid spirit stones.
"Oh, that one," Chen Xia rubbed his head, suddenly remembering.
Li Yang continued his introduction, "Huang Can and Jia Bai have similar combat strength, both at Saint level. Li Yue and I can go negotiate with Huang Can. You guys can go for Jia Bai. Once you find him, don't hesitate. He definitely won't agree, so just start fighting."
"It's best to beat him half to death. That way he won't be able to resist."
Qiu Li's gaze wandered as he whispered to Emperor Capital beside him, "This seems a bit personal."
"That bastard Jia Bai is quite annoying. I heard he was harassing Li Yang recently. To be honest, he does deserve a beating," Emperor Capital rarely spoke fairly.
"The last one, Hu Linye, will be more difficult," Li Yang shook his head. "None of us know him personally. We only know that he wanders in the northern star region and likes to descend to the mortal realm for enlightenment, so it might take some time to find him."
"It doesn't matter. Let's capture Jia Bai first," Emperor Capital patted his chest and declared loudly.
Li Yang looked at Chen Xia. They still needed to see what the leader had to say.
Chen Xia rested his head on one hand, seeming to be thinking about other matters. Seeing everyone's gaze turn to him, he raised his eyes and nodded.
"Then it's decided. Li Yang will go find Huang Can, and we'll go after Jia Bai."
"Alright," Li Yang nodded.
The others naturally had no objections.
Today there was no wind, nor was it sunny.
Li Yang and Li Yue packed up, rehearsing their script one more time. Their deceptive tone and pie-in-the-sky techniques were identical to Chen Xia's.
Emperor Capital and Qiu Li stood in the courtyard, bickering as they walked, discussing how to make their attack more impressive.
Chi Yu stood silently in front of the house door, arms crossed.
Chen Xia leaned against the doorframe, a wild grass stem between his lips, looking back at everyone.
As they all gathered at the door.
Six Saints assembled.
With colorful steps.
They entered the universe, treading upon starlight!
ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
