A deafening explosion echoed through the cavern as a powerful force collided with the stone gate, sending shockwaves rippling through the air!
Ye Chuan frowned, staring at the imposing gate before him, a flicker of irritation rising in his chest.
As a Crystal Realm expert, being stumped by what seemed like an ordinary stone gate was downright embarrassing.
Pathetic, really.
"Come on, I’m a Crystal Realm cultivator—how can a damn door stop me?!" With that, Ye Chuan unleashed his full aura, his spiritual energy surging like a tidal wave.
"I’m at the mid-stage of the Crystal Realm! Who dares block my path?!"
His voice rang out as spiritual power churned violently around him, his immortal sword blazing with radiant light.
Raising the sword high, a pillar of energy shot upward, illuminating the cavern in a dazzling glow. Then, with a roar, Ye Chuan slashed down:
"Curry Slash!"
A razor-sharp wave of sword energy erupted, slicing through the air with a piercing shriek. The sheer force shook the cavern, sending dust cascading from the ceiling and shrouding the space in dim haze.
As the light faded, the stone gate remained unscathed, standing firm as if mocking him silently.
Ye Chuan’s eye twitched at the sight. Clearing his throat, he muttered, "If only Qian Shuang were here, she’d smash this thing in two."
["Xiao Shuang, show it who’s boss!"
"Skip it!"]
He scanned the cavern, considering alternatives.
Maybe tunneling through the walls? The thought was dismissed immediately.
A Crystal Realm expert digging like a mole? Absolutely humiliating. Even if no one was watching.
Nah, nah.
"Hmm… huh?" Rummaging through his bag, his fingers brushed against something—a monocle materialized in his palm.
[Item: Magic Eyeglass
Effect: X-ray vision, capable of seeing through illusions.]
A drop from Lilith ages ago, something he’d barely glanced at. Now, it might just be useful.
Magic operated on rules different from cultivation. If his spiritual senses couldn’t penetrate the gate, maybe this could.
Sliding the monocle on, the world transformed instantly—everything became transparent, even gaining night vision.
"Oh? Surprisingly handy here." A flicker of surprise crossed his face as he turned back to the gate.
The ancient stone now appeared translucent. Though darkness loomed beyond, a glowing purple magic circle pulsed at its center, intricate runes swirling with arcane power.
"So that’s why my attacks did nothing—there’s a barrier spell embedded."
Adjusting the monocle, Ye Chuan smirked. Magic circles weren’t a problem for him.
Stepping forward, he pressed a palm against the icy surface. Instantly, chaotic energy surged from his body, seeping through the cracks like living tendrils to corrode the spell’s power.
The gate’s resistance weakened visibly, the magic circle dimming bit by bit.
"Bzzzt—" A sharp hum filled the cavern as the circle shattered into fragments, dissolving into nothingness.
With the barrier gone, Ye Chuan shoved the gate with renewed vigor.
Open!
Tatakae!
A deep rumble answered as the massive door slowly gave way, unleashing an ancient, mysterious aura heavy with time’s weight.
Success!
Sword in hand, Ye Chuan stepped inside cautiously, conjuring a fireball to light his way.
The space beyond was vast, littered with ruins of bizarre structures and skeletal remains of unknown creatures. The architecture was alien—nothing like the sects or mortal cities he knew. Instead, it bore a Western fantasy flair, steeped in enigma.
The bones, though—those were the real curiosity.
"What… are these things?" He eyed a skull towering over ten meters, brow furrowing.
Even with his limited exposure to exotic beasts, this was beyond strange.
Wasn’t this the Ghost Valley? He’d expected wraiths and specters, not… whatever this was.
Why were there so many monstrous remains behind this gate? What happened here?
Questions swirled as he ventured deeper.
The gloom receded, replaced by walls embedded with luminescent stones casting an eerie blue glow. The skeletons and ruins shimmered unnervingly, amplifying the unsettling atmosphere.
Ye Chuan’s steps slowed, grip tightening on his sword.
This place was leagues more dangerous than outside.
Physical damage was still a concern, after all.
Suddenly, his spiritual sense prickled. His gaze snapped forward—
A colossal throne, dozens of meters tall, loomed ahead. And seated upon it… a massive figure clad in armor.
"A giant?" Ye Chuan blinked. The sheer scale dwarfed him—his 1.8-meter frame might as well have been an ant.
The armored titan sat motionless, shrouded in shadow, exuding an imperious aura as if gazing down upon all who dared approach.
"Interesting… Is it dead?" Despite sensing no life, the illusion of being watched persisted.
"Whatever. Photos first." Ye Chuan whipped out his phone, snapping several shots of the armored giant.
He’d ask Lilith later. She might know.
This style of armor had zero connection to the cultivation world.
Expanding his spiritual sense, he searched for treasures—even if this felt like the wrong place, such a bizarre spot had to hide something valuable.
Just then… the giant’s fingers twitched.
Dust cascaded from its joints as a low, grinding creak echoed through the chamber.
Heavy.
Commanding.
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.)
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"
