"*cough cough*"
Among the two people, the man named Li Kun couldn't help but cough twice before saying, "Everyone, please quiet down. Before the meeting, I have an important announcement to make."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to him.
"My unworthy son has awakened the Grand Transformation Sacred Physique, and next month is his coming-of-age ceremony. To celebrate, my Forest Valley Sect plans to hold a grand feast on the first day of next month."
"Therefore, taking advantage of this meeting, I would like to extend an invitation to all the sect leaders present. Please make sure to honor us with your presence, and perhaps you could also provide some guidance to my son."
After speaking, Li Kun narrowed his eyes and stroked his beard.
His eyes were carefully observing everyone's expressions.
These old fellows never met without trying to suppress and show off to each other. He chose this moment to make his announcement precisely to put pressure on everyone else.
After all, these people had been competing for countless years without a clear winner, so the talents and abilities of their next generation had become their new source of pride.
And the Grand Transformation Sacred Physique was his trump card.
Such a physique was enough to crush any young person in the Chuyuan Immortal Continent.
He could already anticipate the ugly expressions of envy, jealousy, and hatred on their faces when they heard the words "Grand Transformation Sacred Physique."
However.
Li Kun's prediction was wrong.
Upon hearing his words, everyone just gave him a bland look.
"Oh."
After casually nodding, they resumed their own conversations.
"Hey, Old Zhang, have you received any letters from your son?" Zhang Yu asked.
"My former junior sister Jiang Zhi brought me a message. Said my son joined the Brick-Moving Squad!" Zhang Yu replied.
"What? The Brick-Moving Squad? Hiss!"
"That's terrifying! Well, my son's doing pretty well too. The Manure-Carrying Squad just happened to have a new opening, so he joined them. You know that Lu Chong fellow Li Hongtian mentioned? My son stays with him all day, eating and living together."
"Holy cow, that's even more impressive!"
"A bright future indeed, a bright future! Haha!"
They continued praising each other, completely ignoring Li Kun standing beside them.
Li Kun's face darkened, his facial muscles twitching.
Oh?
Just "oh"?
These old fellows, did they not understand, or did they see through his showing off and deliberately act so indifferent?
"Everyone must come when the time comes. After all, my son achieving the Grand Transformation Sacred Physique is a very important matter. I need all the sect leaders to witness it."
With his face fluctuating between dark and light, he couldn't help but add another sentence.
He particularly emphasized the words "Grand Transformation Sacred Physique," afraid that they might not have heard it.
"Oh, got it."
The four people, still complimenting each other, responded flatly and continued their conversation.
Li Kun nearly coughed up blood in anger.
Why?
Why did they have absolutely no reaction to hearing about his son achieving the Grand Transformation Sacred Physique? This level of calmness wasn't normal!
Those who are confused are always kept in the dark.
While those who know how to seize opportunities have already reached the peak of their lives.
Similar situations to what happened in the Chuyuan Immortal Continent were also occurring in other places. The phenomenon of the Heavenly Immortal Palace's influence spreading from person to person was becoming more intense.
Because of this, the number of prisoners on Dark Shadow Island was increasing.
Meanwhile, various powers were privately speculating about what kind of force Dark Shadow Island really was.
Some guessed it was a force supported by the Heavenly Dao, meant to replace the Heavenly Immortal Palace.
Others said the leader of this force was an awakened powerhouse from ancient times.
There were various versions of the story.
In any case.
The reputation of Dark Shadow Island had thoroughly spread far and wide.
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
