"First, let's pack away the nurse outfit. A new Strange Key—finally, I can enter the adventure world Lan Xiaoke belongs to?"
After all, it's a one-time adventure world. To be honest, Ye Chuan hadn't visited that world in a long time. Before, he could still gather some spirit essences for Lilith, but later, it just stopped refreshing.
"It must be because Xiaoke is too lazy. She never improves her cultivation realm, so it never leveled up."
Once he got his hands on the Strange Key, Ye Chuan took out his phone and opened the adventure world interface.
His finger scrolled down to the very last option.
With the key acquired, the previously grayed-out adventure world lit up again.
[Strange World—The Mute Academy]
[Note: This adventure world is dangerous, containing special forces. Upon entry, all abilities will be disabled.]
Dangerous?
How dangerous could it be?
More dangerous than Qian Shuang, who awakened the memories of an empress?
"The Mute Academy, huh…" Ye Chuan stared silently, pondering whether to jump right in.
Does this adventure world mean his Chaos Immortal Body and techniques won’t work?
Ever since Lilith told him that the Chaos Immortal Body wasn’t absolutely invincible, this was the first time Ye Chuan had actually encountered such a situation.
"Lilith."
At that moment, Ye Chuan suddenly called out.
"What?" Lilith's voice responded from within the jade pendant.
"I’m about to enter a strange place soon… My magic immunity might not work there. Got any treasures to spare?" Ye Chuan grinned.
"No."
"I’m going in to farm spirit essences for you—risking life and limb, crawling through fire and sword, all for my beloved Lilith-sama."
Lilith was rendered speechless by Ye Chuan.
"Aren’t you just going to respawn if you die in that world?"
"Cough." Exposed, Ye Chuan immediately put on a serious face. "That’s not the point! The experience of death is still excruciatingly real! It hurts!"
"After all my hard work, isn’t it all for you?"
"Tch. Annoying." Lilith wasn’t falling for Ye Chuan’s emotional manipulation, but she still clicked her tongue in irritation.
Yet, despite her tough words, a faint strand of purple hair materialized before Ye Chuan, gently floating down into his palm.
"Snap it, and you can summon a clone of me. Normally, it can protect you once."
With that, Lilith fell silent.
Nice.
Ye Chuan happily pocketed it. "How about a few more strands? Normal people have 80,000 to 140,000 hairs—just give me a thousand or so."
"Keep talking, and I’ll pluck you bald!" Lilith’s voice snapped back, tinged with anger.
"Stingy."
After teasing Lilith a few more times and getting no response, Ye Chuan decided to prepare a bit before entering that strange world.
Even though it was labeled a dangerous adventure world, the fact that his abilities might truly be sealed didn’t scare him much.
He reopened the points shop and immediately purchased the Hundred-Hit Revolver and Air Cannon from the tech section.
[Item: Hundred-Hit Revolver
A revolver with 100% accuracy.
Infinite ammo.]
[Item: Air Cannon
An absolute destructive hand cannon.
Ammo: 3]
"Good." Since he’d cleared out his inventory earlier, Ye Chuan didn’t have many items left—just the most valuable or potentially useful ones, like the Heavenly Water Mirror and Spirit Orbs he’d swiped from the Qingyun Sect.
"Should’ve kept some of Xiaoke’s talismans." Ye Chuan suddenly missed Lan Xiaoke’s usefulness.
If his magic was sealed, those talismans might’ve actually come in handy.
Never thought he’d be relying on items one day.
"Anywhere Door, Shrink Ray…" Ye Chuan glanced at the mountain of pills in his inventory and figured he was about as ready as he could be.
"Alright."
Strange World, activate!
[Holographic Adventure Loading—]
[Enemy Units Detected: ???]
[Obtainable Items: ???, ????, ?????Red]
[Death Return]
[Danger]
[Special Effect: Abilities, magic, items, and special powers disabled……&……% Due to Chaos Immortal Body influence, Unlimited Inventory and usable items remain functional…]
[Special Effect: Under Lilith·An’s protection, granted Mental Resistance.]
Darkness swallowed his vision as Ye Chuan felt his consciousness being pulled away.
……
……
The scene before him gradually sharpened. As his awareness returned, Ye Chuan found himself lying on a soft bed.
A simple room, an unfamiliar ceiling, and the sound of birds chirping outside, sunlight streaming in.
Ye Chuan sat up, puzzled.
Wait, where the hell am I?
Where’s the horror?
This place is way too sunny to be right.
He’d expected the adventure world to be littered with corpses, ghosts drifting about—but the warm sunlight spilling through the window gave him an eerie feeling instead.
"Did I not enter the adventure world?" Ye Chuan raised his hand.
"Fire."
Nothing happened. Silence.
"……"
"Shinra Tensei."
"Teleport."
"Balala Transformation!"
"……"
"Divine Sense?"
Still no reaction. Ye Chuan tried summoning his Chaos Energy, and this time, there was a response—a faint black aura surfaced, but it seemed to clash with some unseen force, canceling each other out.
"Abilities are completely sealed, but Chaos Energy still has some effect." Ye Chuan assessed his situation.
Opening his inventory, everything worked fine—stocked with all the items he’d prepared.
With a flick of his wrist, the infinite-ammo revolver appeared in his hand.
"Not bad."
With a weapon in hand, Ye Chuan felt utterly calm.
All fear stems from insufficient firepower.
An infinite-ammo gun…
Why would I be the one running?
"Too bad it’s not a submachine gun." Ye Chuan shook his head and tossed the revolver back into his inventory.
Armed and stocked with healing items, his King’s New Clothes armor was still active—though his transformation devices were unusable.
After organizing his gear, Ye Chuan surveyed the room.
It was… ordinary. Too ordinary.
Not a hint of horror.
His gaze shifted to the nightstand—where a single sheet of paper lay undisturbed.
[The Mute Academy Admission Letter]
[Welcome to the Academy.]
[1. All students must be in good health.]
[2. Teachers’ words are absolute. Students must never disobey.]
[3. The laboratory is off-limits.]
[4. Do not graduate. Heh heh heh. (Scratched out)]
Ye Chuan: "……"
What kind of nonsense is this? Want to eat a bullet?
Tossing the paper into his inventory, Ye Chuan stretched and noticed another note on the desk.
There’s more?
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ... [The Eldest Princess's Diary] [When my soul was extracted, becoming the sole spectator outside my own shell] [At first, there was overwhelming fury, until I saw] [How he used my sword to effortlessly shatter my inescapable doom] [How he wielded my authority to eradicate fatal conspiracies I had never even detected] [Like a deity, he rescued me from the deep mire I was trapped in] [If not for those annoying vixens, he and I would be a match made in heaven] [I think I am ill, gravely ill] [My deity should belong to me alone] ...

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
