Three months had passed, and the island had undergone significant changes.
Yi Feng had finally accumulated enough karmic value to open the transmission array to the Heaven and Earth Sect.
He directly purchased the transmission array connecting Dark Shadow Island to the Heaven and Earth Sect from the karmic exchange shop.
Eager to transport back, he was about to activate it when the system's voice rang out.
"Ding: Due to the host's recent good performance, you are rewarded with a twelve-level cultivation increase. Additionally, the exchange shop has launched exclusive special offers."
Upon hearing this news, Yi Feng, already elated about returning to the Heaven and Earth Sect, began to dance with joy.
"Eight levels?"
"Twelve levels at once?"
Yi Feng excitedly counted on his fingers.
Mid-stage Human Immortal, late-stage Human Immortal, peak Human Immortal...
By this calculation, wouldn't he have reached Golden Immortal cultivation?
Yi Feng could barely contain his excitement.
However.
He didn't get too carried away.
After all, from what he knew, even a Golden Immortal was still a small fry in the Immortal Realm.
But this at least gave him hope. It seemed the system was showing signs of empowering him gradually!
After suppressing his excitement, he quickly opened the exchange shop.
After all, he had noticed the "exclusive special offers" the system mentioned earlier. This was the first time he'd heard of such a thing, so he was eager to satisfy his curiosity.
As soon as he opened it.
Yi Feng's face lit up.
Because these exclusive special offers exceeded Yi Feng's expectations.
The special offers weren't items, but rather 1,100 slots.
These 1,100 slots corresponded to 1,000 Human Immortals and 100 Earth Immortals, each priced at a special rate of one point per slot.
In simple terms, Yi Feng could use 1,100 points to create 1,000 Human Immortals and 100 Earth Immortals.
"This is fantastic!"
"The 100 Earth Immortal slots will go to those useless disciples of mine."
"As for the 1,000 Human Immortal slots, I'll give them to the old men and women on the island who catch my eye."
Thinking of this, Yi Feng couldn't help but sigh.
He remembered.
When he first became a Human Immortal, he was overjoyed, feeling like he could pierce the heavens.
Now.
He could use the system to create 1,100 immortals in one go. It was unimaginable before.
It truly was a case of one person's success benefiting all around them.
Just as he had opened the channel to the Heaven and Earth Sect, he could now bring them to the Immortal Realm to broaden their horizons. The timing couldn't be better.
However, thinking of his disciples reminded Yi Feng of the system's previous prompt about taking on a final disciple.
So he couldn't help but speak out.
"System, call out. You told me to take on a final disciple, but shouldn't you give me some selection criteria?"
"Ding!"
"The criterion is that there is no criterion!"
"As long as the system approves, it's fine."
The system's voice came through, making Yi Feng, who had been in a good mood, bare his teeth and wave his arms in frustration.
Damn it.
Who knows what it takes to get your approval.
If you say look at talent, well, that talent detection function is long gone.
If you say look at cultivation level, this weakling standing on the street can't tell any difference at a glance, everyone looks the same. He can't see who's higher or lower.
Well.
It all comes down to fate.
"Let's leave it to chance!" he grumbled.
After explaining things to Gong Chen and the others, Yi Feng prepared to transport back to the Heaven and Earth Sect.
Before transporting.
He specially changed into new clothes.
The transmission array activated, breaking open the clouds above the Heaven and Earth Sect.
He descended upon the Heaven and Earth Sect with full grandeur.
"Look!"
"It's the master!"
"The master has returned."
"The master's appearance is truly radiant!"
"Indeed, breaking through the clouds and walking down, such abilities simply treat the laws of heaven and earth as nothing!"
A small portion of people who had recently arrived on the island exclaimed excitedly upon seeing this!
"What are you so excited about?"
Nearby, several old men playing chess glared at these youngsters and said sternly, "Look at you, acting like you've never seen the world. Is this such a big deal?"
"That's right, isn't this normal for the master?"
"Look at you all, making such a fuss."
"Young lads, don't blame us for saying this, but if you stay in Pingjiang City and the Heaven and Earth Sect for a while, you'll understand that all incredible things happening to the master are normal."
"Yes, stay long enough, and even if you see the master tear the sky in half one day, there's no need to make a fuss. It might just be because the master lost his money pouch again."
The old men lectured.
Then they went back to their chess game.
"Checkmate!"
"Damn, no, no, let me take that move back."
"You old bastard, have you no shame?"
Meanwhile, the other old men and women nearby continued their business as usual. Those selling tofu sold tofu, those selling turtles sold turtles, showing no reaction to what was happening in the sky.
They had seen it all.
Nothing surprised them anymore.
"Damn it!"
In the sky.
The majestic Yi Feng cursed.
Were these old folks at the Heaven and Earth Sect missing a screw in their heads?
He had gone to great lengths to show off using the system, descending in such a grand manner, yet there was no reaction?
They could at least come over and pay respects, as if a deity had descended.
If not that, at least a gasp or two of surprise?
"Pork Rong!"
He descended from the sky and came to Pork Rong's stall.
"Hello, master."
"Would you like some pork trotters?"
Pork Rong chopped off a front trotter and handed it over.
Looking at the pork trotter before him, Yi Feng's face darkened.
Damn it.
Is this about pork trotters?
At least give some reaction.
In front of you lot, I should at least be considered a powerful expert, right?
Couldn't you marvel a bit at how amazing I am?
Well.
Showing off failed.
He shouldn't have tried to show off in front of these slow-reacting old men and women.
In the short time he had been away.
The scale of development on the island had reached unimaginable proportions.
The street along the edge of the island was even busier than Pingjiang City used to be.
The headquarters of the Baofeng Chamber of Commerce seemed to have moved over as well.
The manure-carrying business also seemed to have become more proficient.
Having returned and failed to show off, Yi Feng could only relax, playing chess with the old men and playing cards at Yi Hong Yard.
However, before that, he also sent out jade slips to contact those disciples he wasn't particularly close to, asking them to come back. He planned to elevate them to Earth Immortals and then take them to broaden their horizons in the Immortal Realm.
In an unknown location.
A black palace.
The front was covered with curtains, behind which lay a person of unknown appearance.
"Reporting to the Emissary."
"The soul lamps of the Ten Heavenly Stems have been extinguished."
A subordinate knelt on the outskirts, respectfully reporting.
"What about the world-destroying calamity?"
A voice came from behind the curtains.
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
