"Tsk... So the audit is finally coming?"
In the depths of the Illusory Star Cave, Chen Yi took a deep breath, his gaze flickering with a hint of nervousness.
A Primordial Chaos Creation Disk under its master's control and one where the master was asleep were two entirely different concepts!
Though Chen Yi had already wiped all evidence clean and crafted flawless fake accounts, with the second and third-in-command both assuring everything was normal, if the top leader insisted on investigating, traces of the chat group's rough usage would still be uncovered.
Especially since the true top leader was a mysterious immortal realm powerhouse. If they decided to dig deep, that flimsy veil of deception would be torn apart in an instant!
Thus, he had already prepared for the worst.
The divine senses he had infiltrated into the second and third-in-command were ready to self-destruct at any moment—flipping the table entirely. If the traces couldn’t be erased, he’d bury them under an even greater disturbance, obliterating everything!
To be extra cautious, the one-star Chaos avatar hosting the chat group had already been tossed into the void's turbulent currents. At least Mu Chen was there to keep it company, so it wouldn’t be too lonely.
If that mysterious immortal realm powerhouse somehow traced it back to the avatar, all they’d find was a dead end!
"Let’s hope the worst doesn’t happen. Starting over would be far too difficult. Mysterious immortal realm powerhouse, I hope you know when to back off..."
Chen Yi sighed faintly, cautiously monitoring the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk’s movements, ready to detonate at a moment’s notice.
But in reality, he was overthinking it. Ling Xiao hadn’t even noticed this insignificant shrimp—Chen Yi was just writing his own dramatic script!
The Primordial Chaos Creation Disk acting strangely was something Ling Xiao had anticipated, but he wasn’t concerned. In fact, he felt a sliver of relief.
Why? Because he had finally pinpointed the source of the anomaly affecting him!
Fear stemmed from the unknown. Once the truth was uncovered, it could be manipulated into an advantage.
Only an anomaly that defied the rules could influence the illogical, rule-breaking Primordial Chaos Creation Disk!
Though he didn’t know the exact nature of this anomaly’s abilities and dared not recklessly engage with it, knowing it had left traces within the chat group platform created by the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk was enough.
"Heh, back then, a single ‘Enlightenment’ threw me into chaos. Now, another inexplicable thing has appeared. Wuji, I think you’ll like this one!"
"Old friend, I hope you enjoy this little ‘gift’ I’m sending your way!"
Ling Xiao smirked sinisterly before pretending to doze off, even giving off an air of indulging whatever chaos might unfold.
After all, the lower realm was barren—hardly a place for such an anomaly to thrive. The immortal realm, rich and prosperous, was the perfect stage for it to wreak havoc!
......
"Oh? Asleep again?"
Chen Yi raised an eyebrow, sensing the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk returning to calm. His eyes narrowed slightly.
"Something’s off."
"There’s no way He wouldn’t notice the traces of rough usage in the chat group. So why stop the investigation so soon?"
"What’s He planning?"
"And while it seems like He suddenly fell ill, there’s actually a pattern here."
"When I infiltrated the third-in-command, He didn’t react. When I took care of the second-in-command, He slept soundly. Even when I dismantled the will imprint of the eleventh-ranked powerhouse, He remained indifferent. But the moment I targeted the second-ranked, He suddenly went berserk!"
"Seems the top ten are bound far more tightly than I imagined. Otherwise, He wouldn’t wake up the instant I made a move."
"So... is this fake sleep a trap to lure me out?"
"Wait, is He insane? If He just investigated further, He’d catch me red-handed. Why go through all this extra trouble?!"
Chen Yi frowned deeply.
Just then, both the second-in-command’s monitoring system and the third-in-command’s backend information center received a directive simultaneously.
[The ‘Immortal Realm Trials’ function module has been fully developed. No restrictions apply. Immediate deployment to all chat groups except Group One. Simultaneously, the public zone channel will be closed.]
"???"
Chen Yi was baffled.
What kind of abstract move was this?
Had the Immortal Realm Trials module even been completed? The three veterans from Group One in the beta team hadn’t even reached the immortal realm yet!
And now it’s being rolled out to all groups?
Why exclude Group One?
Why no restrictions?
Why shut down the public zone?
"Behind this absurdity lies a scheme. What the hell is this bastard plotting?!"
Chen Yi couldn’t make sense of it, but that didn’t stop him from obediently following the top leader’s orders. For now, he’d play the role of the dutiful subordinate.
[Multiverse Transmigrators Mutual Aid Group – Group 108]
[Function Module – ‘Immortal Realm Trials’ unlocked. All members may participate. No restrictions apply.]
[Immortal Realm Runner-Up (Chen Bo): Huh? Our group hasn’t even leveled up yet. How’d we suddenly get a new function module? And it’s Immortal Realm Trials? With no restrictions? Boss, are you messing with us again?]
[I Really Don’t Want to Be Sacrificed (Fang Zheng): Chen Bo, shut up. Plans succeed in secrecy, fail in exposure!]
[Just a Bit of Hardship (Gu Yuan): Fang, it’s good to be cautious, but are you underestimating the boss’s capabilities?]
[Unemployed Light God (Adolf Anlan): Sigh, I’ve said it a million times, but I’ll say it again—following the boss means feasting eighteen times a day!]
[I Want a Harem! (Shen Lang): Boss, I haven’t even reached the Unity Realm yet. Am I really qualified for the Immortal Realm Trials?]
[Withered Leaf Drifting in the Wind (Qin Sheng): The boss is practically spoon-feeding us. What’s there to fear? Just go for it!]
[Little Land God Lin Yuyu: Ah? Another super dungeon? I wonder if I can handle it...]
[Back to the World (Mu Chen): Bro, the winds here cut deep. You won’t even talk to me. I’m so lonely, so cold...]
[Fallen Genius (Xiao Chunan): Actually, I think everyone’s misunderstood. The boss is still offline, and Mu Chen mentioned he’s been silent the whole time. So, I believe the immortal realm is risky. Until the boss speaks up, we should hold off and consolidate our strength.]
The moment Chen Yi reactivated his chat group avatar and saw this message, he was stunned.
Given the urgency of the situation, he had taken multiple precautions before logging in to guard against the supposedly "sleeping" immortal realm powerhouse’s covert investigation. The process had been slow.
Yet, despite Fang Zheng and Gu Yuan missing the details, Xiao Chunan had noticed!
Not only that, but he’d also accurately guessed Chen Yi’s intentions?
Sure, it might’ve been a wild guess, but he’d hit the mark!
Praise-worthy indeed!
[Damn Tribulation Still Chasing Me (Group Owner): Chunan, well done. Thumbs up!]
The moment Xiao Chunan saw this message, he froze—then burst into ecstatic laughter:
"Hahaha... All those hours spent observing Fang Zheng and Gu Yuan weren’t in vain! It seems I, too, have the makings of a legendary strategist!"
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.”
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."
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?
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
