The reason the Flying Star Heavenly Dao had always kept Zhou Zheng from informing the Celestial Master was precisely to avoid this situation.
Before achieving success, everything it did seemed like heresy. Even though it knew it was on the right path, the eerie and ominous phenomena along the way offered no convincing evidence.
The opinions of the beings on the Flying Star Continent didn’t matter—they couldn’t shake its unwavering resolve. But if the Celestial Master failed to understand and intervened to stop its deductions, then no matter how unwilling it was, it would have no choice but to obey...
Damn it, Zhou Zheng! Who told you to spill the secret?!
You’ve put me in a terrible spot!!!
The Flying Star Heavenly Dao practically dissected its failed deductions, meticulously presenting every detail to the Celestial Master to prove its safety, desperate to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.
"Hiss~ This is quite intriguing..."
After hearing the explanation, Chen Yi couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
As expected, the Flying Star Heavenly Dao remained the Flying Star Heavenly Dao, always capable of delivering a massive surprise.
This guy... had some nerve!
It wasn’t actually nurturing demonic abominations—it was attempting to overturn the traditional system of life evolution!
The standards set by the Immortal Realm were too strict, and the foundation of the Flying Star Continent was too shallow. Any living being that reached the Tribulation Transcendence stage would be annihilated by the Heavenly Tribulation before they could even provide any help to the Flying Star Heavenly Dao!
Thus, it was practically impossible for the Flying Star Heavenly Dao to ascend through conventional means.
Before learning the "Falsity into Truth" method, it could barely make do, but now that it knew, it couldn’t pretend otherwise!
Especially with Celestial Master Chen Yi—a living example of an unconventional path to evolution—right before its eyes. How could it not entertain some unorthodox ideas?!
And so, it took a detour!
The Immortal Realm’s standards were too harsh?
Then bypass them through alternative means!
Under the traditional evolution system, no matter the cultivation path, once a being’s life level reached a certain threshold, the Heavenly Tribulation would sense them!
This proved that innovating the cultivation system alone was useless—it wouldn’t solve the root problem. The very method of life evolution had to be reformed!
After much experimentation, using the "Falsity into Truth" method, the Flying Star Heavenly Dao produced a series of failed cases resembling demonic abominations—but it had indeed made progress!
The current fourth-stage evolutionary form it deduced could stabilize life conditions, comparable to traditional Nascent Soul-stage beings!
Though still in a virtual state derived from the "Falsity into Truth" method, as long as the theory was correct, the path wouldn’t be wrong!
Given time, the Flying Star Heavenly Dao would establish a new standard, free from the constraints of the Immortal Realm’s rules!
In a way, the Flying Star Heavenly Dao and its teacher were alike—both were examples of honest people forced into desperate measures.
After a long silence, Chen Yi finally spoke thoughtfully, "Flying Star, whether your path will succeed, I cannot judge. But if you implement this new system, what will happen to the beings who have progressed under the old one?"
Hum!
The heavens trembled slightly as the Flying Star Heavenly Dao exclaimed excitedly, "Celestial Master, does this mean you approve of my continuation?!"
Chen Yi nodded faintly. "Have you considered how to handle these beings from the traditional evolution system?"
The Flying Star Heavenly Dao hesitated before cautiously asking, "Would you be willing to take them in?"
Chen Yi smiled faintly. "Of course. They won’t suffer."
In truth, after the Purple Star Heavenly Dao absorbed the Flying Star Heavenly Dao’s core driver, the people of Purple Star and Flying Star became like long-lost brothers. Flying Star cultivators arriving on the Purple Star Continent would feel right at home—not only would they adapt seamlessly, but they would also be treated with favor by the Purple Star Heavenly Dao, perhaps even receiving special privileges!
After all... Purple Star owed Flying Star a tremendous karmic debt. Thanks to the core driver gifted by Flying Star, Purple Star had regained its peak—it was practically a second life!
How could such a debt go unpaid?
Moreover, the cultivators of the Flying Star Continent were of exceptional quality, with many Unity-stage experts among them. How could they not be given a chance to advance?
Once the decision was made, the Flying Star Heavenly Dao immediately suppressed all beings, plunging the world into an era where cultivation was impossible!
Meanwhile, Chen Yi left behind three Chaos avatars to oversee the establishment of an ascension channel to the "Purple Star Immortal Realm" while also supervising the Flying Star Heavenly Dao to ensure it didn’t stray from the right path.
As for Zhou Zheng—he was in for a world of trouble. The Flying Star Heavenly Dao singled him out, tasking him with organizing the orderly evacuation of all cultivators across the continent.
This was the most tedious job!
The Flying Star Continent had nearly ten million cultivators. The high-level ones needed no urging—they would rush to "ascend" in a frenzy. But the low-level ones were a headache. Those from major sects were fine, as their elders would guide them, but minor sects and rogue cultivators were scattered all over, some in the most remote corners. If he didn’t fetch them personally, it would take decades just to gather them all.
After all, the Flying Star Continent was vast—a Qi Condensation or Foundation Establishment rogue cultivator could spend their entire life without traversing it fully.
"It’s over... I can’t keep up anymore. I’ve been surpassed..."
Overwhelmed and frustrated, Zhou Zheng watched his ranking plummet on the chat group leaderboard, filled with regret.
If only he had known the Flying Star Heavenly Dao was working on something legitimate—why did he have to go and tattle? What was the point?!
But of course, that was all in the future.
After settling matters with the Flying Star Heavenly Dao, Chen Yi launched his investigation and research plan into the Divine Path of Belief in the Divine Land World.
[Multiverse Travelers’ Mutual Aid Group – Chat 108]
[TMD the Heavenly Tribulation is Still Chasing Me (Group Owner): @Little Earth God Lin Yuyu, newbie, get ready. I’m coming to your world for an investigation.
@I Really Don’t Want to Be a Sacrifice, @Just a Bit of Hardship, @Fallen Genius, Fang Zheng, Gu Yuan, and Xiao Chunan will accompany me as the research team.]
[Little Earth God Lin Yuyu: Understood!]
[I Really Don’t Want to Be a Sacrifice: Understood!]
[Just a Bit of Hardship: Understood!]
[Fallen Genius: Understood!!!]
"Hahaha! I knew I had the potential to become a legendary figure!"
"Hahaha! All those who mocked me as a clumsy imitator, who laughed at my futile efforts—look at you now, dumbfounded!"
"What you scoffed at was actually the true path to greatness! Persistence is victory! My efforts weren’t in vain—the Group Owner hasn’t forgotten me! Next time you see me, you’ll have to call me ‘Senior’!"
"Elder Fang Zheng, Senior Gu Yuan, thank you for your guidance. It’s because of your teachings that I seized this opportunity to advance!"
Xiao Chunan laughed heartily, venting all his pent-up frustration, his future now shining brightly.
Of course, this was the result of his relentless perseverance.
If talent was lacking, then persistence would suffice!
Even if mocked, even if the road was arduous and progress slow—as long as he never gave up, success would come eventually!
Unfortunately, besides this hardworking individual, there was also a lucky one.
That’s right—Ye Wuchen, far away in Chat Group 2 and usually out of reach, was also summoned, even appointed as the deputy leader of the research team!
There was no helping it—he was a lucky charm. With him around, good fortune might not come, but without him, misfortune might strike.
Bringing him along was always the right call.
In the face of sheer luck, hard work truly paled in comparison!
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
