Big Fool Star What Are You Trying to Do

Upon realizing that the Flying Star Heavenly Path might have deviated from its proper course and was now in a deranged, qi-deviation state, Chen Yi could no longer remain idle.

[Damn it, the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is still chasing me (Group Owner): Share your location. I’m coming over.]

No matter what, Flying Star was his disciple, someone who addressed him as "Heavenly Master." If this ended up causing disaster, it would reflect poorly on him as a teacher.

"Brother Yi, uh, I think the Matchmaking Department would be a great place for my first internship. I’ll head over there first. You handle your business."

Mu Chen, ever perceptive, immediately took the initiative to excuse himself.

"Take this token, so Bai Yujing, that old fart, doesn’t dismiss you as insignificant." With a wave of his hand, Chen Yi sent a multicolored jade plaque floating toward Mu Chen.

Though it bore no inscriptions or symbols, anyone with eyes could tell who had crafted this jade plaque!

Those who understood would arrange things properly; those who didn’t would soon learn to.

"Thank you, Brother Yi! I’ll work hard and won’t let you down!" Overjoyed, Mu Chen bowed deeply, accepted the plaque, and turned to leave, closing the door behind him.

Once Mu Chen was gone, Chen Yi’s gaze sharpened. Using the chat group’s avatar as a medium, he opened a spatial portal leading directly to the Flying Star Continent.

In the next moment, eighteen Chaos Avatar Pearls materialized, spinning rapidly to form a luminous ring before plunging into the portal!

A single Chaos Avatar, at the early-stage True Immortal level, boasted combat power of six billion—more than enough to discipline the unruly Flying Star Heavenly Path. The reason for deploying so many avatars, however, wasn’t just out of concern for the Heavenly Path. It was also a necessary precaution for investigating the Divine Path of Faith in the Divine Land World.

According to Lin Yuyu’s intel, Divine Faith deities were categorized into fourteen tiers, with first-tier Heavenly Deities possessing combat power as high as ten billion—roughly equivalent to a peak True Immortal!

Given that a Heavenly Path was a tier above, the Divine Land World’s Heavenly Path could manifest laws at the True Immortal level, putting it on par with the Azure Cloud Heavenly Path at the very least!

Thus, sending eighteen Chaos Avatars ensured they could thoroughly suppress the Divine Land Heavenly Path, leaving it no room to act recklessly!

Just a minor privilege of being the chat group’s second-in-command—nothing worth mentioning.

Soon.

The Flying Star Continent came into view.

Within the newly revitalized Sacred Void Sect, Zhou Zheng stood atop the main peak, clad in pristine white robes, his hands clasped behind his back. His posture was straight as a sword, his aura restrained yet sharp, his clear eyes brimming with the serenity of one who had seen through the illusions of the mortal world.

Only when spatial ripples appeared and a swirling vortex materialized did a flicker of excitement and fervor cross his face.

"Zhou Zheng welcomes the arrival of the Group Owner!"

He clasped his fists and bowed deeply, his spine bending like a drawn sword, paying the highest respects.

A second later.

Chen Yi, dressed in a deep blue Daoist robe, his sharp brows and starry eyes exuding an air of authority, stepped out of the spatial vortex. He cast an approving glance at Zhou Zheng.

"You’ve started to resemble a Sword Immortal. Not bad. No need for formalities—rise and speak."

Zhou Zheng’s spine snapped straight like a released blade, emitting a faint hum, though he still inclined his head slightly, his tone reverent and eager.

"Boss, earning your praise is no small feat. All my relentless sword training wasn’t in vain—I’ve finally managed to catch your eye..."

Chen Yi waved his hand, signaling Zhou Zheng to quiet down, then turned his gaze toward the sky, his expression growing solemn.

The sky was a flawless azure, the vast expanse clear and serene, as if all was right with the world. There was not a hint of abnormality.

But to Chen Yi’s eyes, the scene was entirely different.

The blue sky was an illusion. Peering past the surface, he saw chaotic tangles of laws, dark purple fumes rising like steam, and countless crimson streaks weaving through them, forming horrifying visions.

There was a monstrous entity with a bloated, mountainous body, its back covered in countless humanoid arms—some slender like a child’s, others bearing crimson vertical pupils, and still others shaped like beastly claws. A thousand limbs writhed, each seemingly practicing some sinister art.

Then there was a shifting, expanding mass of flesh—sometimes sprouting tentacles, sometimes morphing into a gaping maw that emitted soul-shaking demonic cries, its entire form radiating an aura of dread.

And a seemingly normal human who suddenly mutated, growing three heads and six arms, twelve bone spikes piercing through its body. At the tips of these spikes hung either rotting Golden Cores or festering Nascent Souls, alongside radiant golden lotuses brimming with Daoist majesty and pristine white Dao Fruits exuding sacred purity—a grotesque fusion of corruption and holiness, evil intertwined with sanctity...

At the center of these aberrations, the Flying Star Heavenly Path trembled violently.

"No, still not right!"

"Why does everything go smoothly at first, only to mutate at the critical moment?"

"Am I on the wrong path?"

"No, the direction is correct, the theory sound—it’s the execution that’s flawed. Again!"

"Eternal life, the lock of immortality, glimpsing eternity on the path of longevity... Three Flowers Gather at the Summit, Ascension to Immortality... But an immortal... an immortal shouldn’t be like this..."

"Deceiving the false to become real—it’s just too effective!!!"

Chen Yi: "......"

Has this guy lost his mind?

What is He trying to do?!

Is He cultivating Abyssal Horrors?!

"Flying Star, what the hell are you doing?!"

Chen Yi abandoned all subtlety and roared.

Boom!

The heavens shuddered. The Flying Star Heavenly Path, startled by Chen Yi’s sudden appearance—and Zhou Zheng, who stood nearby, silently stroking his sword—exclaimed in disbelief:

"Ah~ Heavenly Master! When did you arrive? Why didn’t you give me a heads-up? And Zhou Zheng! Why didn’t you warn me?!"

Zhou Zheng remained silent, merely lowering his head further as if engrossed in the beauty of his sword.

Chen Yi’s lips twitched. "Stop dodging the question. What is all this?!"

After a brief silence, the Flying Star Heavenly Path laid its cards on the table.

"Since you’ve already seen it, I won’t hide it. That’s right—I’m attempting to bypass the Celestial Court’s standards and forge a path to immortality that doesn’t require enduring tribulations, a way to ascend as an immortal through alternative means!"

"Heavenly Master, truth be told, it was your teachings that inspired me. I’d planned to surprise you once I succeeded, but Zhou Zheng here couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Now I’ve got nothing presentable to show you. After all the favor I’ve shown him, this is how he repays me? Useless fool. Seems his sword training has turned him into a sword—and a shameless one at that!"

Zhou Zheng still didn’t speak, his head dipping even lower. Ah, this sword... truly is a sword.

Chen Yi’s brow furrowed as he pointed at the grotesque, ominous visions. "Inspired by me? Then explain why these abominations reek of Abyssal Taint! What does this have to do with me?!"

"Don’t tell me your so-called ‘bypassing the Celestial Court’s standards’ means turning cultivators into Abyssal Horrors!"

"Did I teach you the Art of Falsity Manifesting as Truth for this?!"

"If you become a breeding ground for Abyssal Taint, don’t blame me for cleaning house!"

Boom—

The heavens trembled violently as the Flying Star Heavenly Dao spoke meekly, "Celestial Master, please don't be angry. Allow me to explain—these failed divinations merely resemble the accursed descendants of demons, but their nature is fundamentally different. I can demonstrate this for you..."
