Noon, high sun in the sky.
"Damn it, the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is still chasing me!"
Purple Star Continent, Illusory Star Cave Abode.
Chen Yi, his hair disheveled, rushed back into his training grounds. Without hesitation, he tore off his cyan-blue Daoist robe and frantically began barricading the entrance with materials designed to block divine senses.
Inside the cave abode, the lightning-warding formations carved into the walls flickered faintly, tiny arcs of electricity crackling sporadically in the air.
BOOM! RUMBLE!!!
Outside, dark clouds churned violently as a multicolored thunder dragon loomed faintly in the distant sky, circling restlessly as if it had lost track of its target, refusing to descend.
After a while...
Hearing no further movement outside, Chen Yi cautiously peeked through a narrow gap—not daring to use his divine sense, relying only on his naked eyes to observe.
Only after confirming the tribulation lightning had dispersed did he finally exhale in relief.
"Phew~~"
"Why? Just why? The Heavenly Secrets clearly foretold that the Immortal Ascension Tribulation’s limit was forty-nine bolts of Violet Heaven Divine Thunder. How, after barely surviving that, could there be an even more terrifying Chaos Tribulation Lightning?!"
"Is this just bullying an honest man?!"
Chen Yi couldn’t help but question his life choices.
This was his eighty-first failed attempt at overcoming the Immortal Ascension Tribulation.
To be fair, it wasn’t that he was weak—it was just that the tribulation had become absurdly unreasonable!
According to ancient texts, during the Ascension Era a hundred thousand years ago, the Immortal Ascension Tribulation for cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence stage consisted of only nine ordinary heavenly thunderbolts. With a solid foundation and minimal preparation, one could pass it easily.
But for some unknown reason, starting ten thousand years ago, the tribulation had grown increasingly monstrous—not only increasing in quantity but also upgrading from ordinary heavenly thunder to Violet Heaven Divine Thunder. This left countless mighty cultivators shattered upon contact, turning ascension into a mere legend.
Chen Yi had transmigrated here eight hundred years ago, missing the golden age and lacking any cheat-like advantages. He had relied solely on sheer persistence and effort to brute-force his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage, becoming the only cultivator at this level in the entire Purple Star Continent.
Yes, the only one.
No surprise there—after all, the other old monsters at the Unity Realm were all suppressing their cultivation, refusing to advance, terrified of drawing the attention of that monstrous tribulation.
Only a reckless fool like him, who saw everyone else as mere weaklings, would charge ahead so boldly.
Until the brutal tribulation taught him humility, leaving him filled with regret.
[Transmigrator detected. You have been invited to join the Multiverse Crossers' Mutual Aid Chat Group.]
Suddenly, a notification chimed in his ears.
Chen Yi froze for a moment before his instincts screamed in alarm.
"Damn it, a heart demon’s trick!"
As a transmigrator, he was well aware of cheat-like "systems" capable of turning the impossible into reality.
But why now? Why not earlier? Why appear precisely when he was hiding from the tribulation? This had to be another underhanded tactic from the Immortal Ascension Tribulation!
"Really? Resorting to dirty tricks now? Trying to trap me in an illusion until my body and soul perish? Not a chance!"
Chen Yi steeled his mind, fortifying his consciousness, until he detected a strange speck of light lurking in an obscure corner of his sea of awareness.
"Hah! You slipped up. Eighty-one rounds, and even with this underhanded move, you still can’t kill me!"
Without hesitation, Chen Yi marshaled his immense soul power and crushed down upon it!
A moment later...
[Do you accept the invitation to join the Multiverse Crossers' Mutual Aid Chat Group?]
The notification remained clear and unchanged.
Chen Yi: "......"
"This... doesn’t seem like a heart demon’s illusion. Not sure, need to investigate further..."
After thorough examination, repeatedly confirming that the strange speck posed no threat, Chen Yi cautiously isolated a fragment of his sea of awareness—along with the speck—and refined it into an external avatar.
This way, whether it was a cheat system or something else, it wouldn’t affect his true self.
"Accept the invitation!"
The next instant, a translucent blue panel materialized before the avatar’s eyes. Controlling it through the avatar felt smooth, with no lag.

"Oh? Quantifying strength with numbers? Interesting..."
After a brief pause, Chen Yi casually entered a nickname.
[“TMD the Tribulation is Still Chasing Me” has joined the chat.]

[Group Owner: Runner-up in the Immortal Cultivation World (Foundation Establishment – 8th Layer, Combat Power: 8,544)]

[Runner-up in the Immortal Cultivation World (Group Owner): Who just joined?!]
[The God of Light is Unemployed: @TMD the Tribulation is Still Chasing Me, bro, that name goes hard.]
[The Sword Immortal with Clean Hands: Wait, is he actually a Tribulation Transcendence bigshot?]
Chen Yi couldn’t help but smirk—this nostalgic feeling reminded him of his carefree days on Earth, idly chatting in online groups.
Just as he was about to dive into the conversation...
[System Notification: Ding! ‘TMD the Tribulation is Still Chasing Me’ has the highest combat power in this group. Automatically promoted to Group Owner.]
[Current Group Owner: TMD the Tribulation is Still Chasing Me (Tribulation Transcendence, Combat Power: 900,000,000)]

[The God of Light is Unemployed: Holy— Bro, you’re for real?!]
[The Sword Immortal with Clean Hands: 900 MILLION combat power?! Dude, isn’t this a newbie group? Where the hell did I end up?]
[Runner-up in the Immortal Cultivation World: Yeah, aren’t we all fresh transmigrators? How did a bigshot sneak in? I just became group owner a few days ago—didn’t even warm the seat before getting demoted again...]
[The God of Light is Unemployed: Whatever! Group Owner, look at my name—I’m so broke I’m bleeding tears. Have mercy! (Begging.jpg)]
[The Sword Immortal with Clean Hands: Me too! A Tribulation Transcendence expert like you could drop crumbs and we’d feast for life...]
Chen Yi ignored them for now, his attention locked onto the group owner privileges.
Multiverse Crossers' Mutual Aid Chat Group – Owner Guidelines:
1. As Group Owner, assist fellow members within your capacity to foster a harmonious community.
2. Aiding weaker members is not charity—the system generates tasks based on their needs. Completing missions in their worlds yields rewards. Acceptance is optional.
3. If a task exceeds the group’s capability, it will be posted in the public channel for other groups to tackle. However, this lowers your group’s rank, restricting access to advanced features (e.g., Multiverse Store, spatial teleportation, artifact dismantling, soul insights...).
4. Task completion and member power growth contribute to group EXP, unlocking higher ranks.
5. Group Owner perks: Priority task selection, 50% bonus reward share, mute/remove members, etc.
"Hmm? This feels somewhat like a faction-building, level-up, and conquest-style game. I'm intrigued. Let me see what this Multiverse Store is all about."
Chen Yi stroked his chin and willed his external avatar to open the store section.

[Pangu's Essence Blood......[Details Expandable]]
Hiss—
Damn, these offerings are seriously tempting.
Chen Yi's heart burned with excitement.
The reason he couldn't ascend to immortality was the lack of Immortal Dao Essence to refine his mortal body into an immortal physique!
Now, if he could just exchange for some Immortal Dao Essence from the Multiverse Store, he could achieve immortality right in the mortal realm!
Screw the so-called Heavenly Tribulation—it's nothing but a !

] 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.

Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
