The Immortal Realm.
Inside the Wuji Treasure Hall.
Wuji stood with his hands behind his back, blocking Ling Xiao as he emerged from the depths of the River of Time. His gaze was deep and penetrating as he stared at the Observation Mirror, countless scenes from the Lower Realms flashing rapidly across its surface.
Finally, the image froze on an unusual vortex of void!
Wuji’s eyes sharpened. He raised a finger and lightly tapped the mirror, his vision immediately plunging deep into the swirling void!
In the next moment,
A small golden dragon suddenly appeared on the mirror’s surface, writhing and twisting amidst the shattered fragments of the Primordial Creation Disk.
“This is... Ling Xiao’s Dao-proving treasure, the Primordial Creation Disk?”
“Why is it broken? And what is that dragon?”
Wuji’s thoughts stirred as he calculated with his fingers.
“Zhao Huazhen? No, it’s the disk’s spirit!”
“Ling Xiao, such a failure—he actually didn’t completely annihilate the true spirit of this great Dao artifact!”
“This isn’t right. Even if the spirit has awakened, with Ling Xiao’s methods, how could he allow the Primordial Creation Disk to be torn apart?”
“There must be some unforeseen variable at play here!”
“Sigh, I can’t figure it out. The variable is disturbing the cause and effect, and the Primordial Disk is shielding the heavenly secrets. Unless I personally open the Immortal Gate and descend to the Lower Realm, but...”
Wuji finally let out a slow sigh, his thick brows furrowed deeply. A trace of unease flickered through his crimson-golden pupils.
One must understand that the title of Immortal Emperor is not something attained by mere cultivation—it is a sovereign authority to command Heaven and Earth!
The one who commands Heaven and Earth stands alone!
Therefore, the Immortal Emperor is absolutely invincible!
But being an Immortal Emperor is not the end-all. The Immortal Realm has endured countless epochs beyond reckoning. Ling Xiao was not the first Immortal Emperor, nor will I be the last!
After all, when Ling Xiao was still in power, he never discovered the existence of this very variable. That’s why, when he was overthrown and lost his title, stripped of his authority to command Heaven and Earth, his invincible golden body was shattered, and he fell from the lofty Immortal Emperor throne down to a mere Origin Dao Resonance realm. Only then did I see a chance to defeat him!
Unfortunately, because he reigned for nine great epochs, his Dao resonance and Dao traces permeated all the myriad worlds, causing all living beings’ thoughts and wills to unconsciously follow his intent. His foundational residual might was simply too strong, and I had yet to firmly secure the Immortal Emperor seat, allowing him to slip away!
Likewise, I too will meet the same fate as Ling Xiao due to some unknown variable I have yet to detect!
Therefore, when I ascend to the Immortal Emperor throne, my aura reaching its peak and my will at its strongest, I resolutely began to calculate my ultimate destiny!
Though much of it was futile effort, I gained one crucial prophecy!
I am destined to face a calamity, and this variable will come from the Lower Realm!
Alas, the variable’s origin is impossible to trace, and naturally, I cannot eliminate it in advance. I can only prepare for the worst!
Hence, my first Immortal Emperor decree was to strengthen the Heavenly Dao into an Immortal Calamity, crushing all aspiring cultivators from the Lower Realm who dare to ascend!
This move is not only to erase Ling Xiao’s influence over all living beings across the myriad worlds but also to safeguard my own life.
Once I break through to the chaotic sovereign realm—transcending all known laws and all dimensions of time and space—titles like Immortal Emperor or variables like this will no longer hold any meaning!
At that time, I will define everything, even rewriting the very definition of ‘existence’ itself!
So, before he succeeds, the Immortal Sect must not be opened. Under no circumstances can it entangle with the mortal realm’s karma, or else it will be plagued by those damnable variables—and that would inevitably lead to Ling Xiao’s fate repeating itself!
“Although the mortal realm is off-limits, if we just let Ling Xiao’s fallback plan in the mortal realm slide, sooner or later those unknown variables will find a loophole!”
“Better to unblock than to block. This little spirit vessel, the golden dragon, can actually be put to use. I suppose it’s headed for the Immortal Realm? Well then, let it come!”
No sooner had the words fallen than Emperor Wuji raised his hand and sliced open a corner of the Immortal Realm, isolating it from the outside. Only then did he begin guiding the little golden dragon inside.

“This route… the chance of being discovered is as high as sixty percent. Not good!”
“This route… damn! The chance of being discovered is ninety-eight percent. That’s basically a death sentence. No, no!”
“This one… no, no!”
“This one’s no good either, nor that one. Ling Xiao, why are you suddenly falling ill? Damn it! And Wuji, why are you so sensitive? Damn it all!”
The little golden dragon cursed fluently, its graceful dragon body twisting and turning, rubbing itself against the fragments of the Primordial Creation Disk, crawling stealthily in the shadows…
“Hey? This route seems risk-free?!”
“Not sure, let me take another look…”
“Hiss~ I can’t say it’s completely risk-free. There’s still a tiny 0.1% chance of being discovered. But this area… I remember it’s not too shabby, right? Why didn’t Wuji pay attention?”
“Oh, I remember now. This is Wuji’s old hidden armory, his absolute stronghold. Naturally, there’s no need for defense here!”
“Hahaha, so it’s darkest right under the lamp. Wuji, you will pay the price for your arrogance!”
“I, Zhao Huazhen, am not without the potential to become a great general in this world!”
“The throne of Immortal Emperor changes hands in turn, so why can’t I sit on it too…? Forget it, no point dreaming the impossible. Better to quietly develop until the Da Luo stage and try to get Wuji to give me an official status!”
“I really don’t want to keep hiding everywhere anymore. I long to swim openly in the vast ocean of Immortal Realm’s laws, to freely roll around in the thirty-three layers of clouds, no longer living this precarious, day-to-day life…”
“Ling Xiao, sorry. My life is useful; your life, let me use it to pledge my allegiance!”
Suddenly, the little golden dragon’s chaotic mind cleared completely.
The moment the thought of surrender arose, it felt as if the world had suddenly expanded!
Seeing this, Wuji smiled with satisfaction.
Guiding a misguided spirit vessel, a little golden dragon, back onto the right path—this was nothing for an Immortal Emperor.
Ling Xiao, are you well hidden?
I’m about to make my move!
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
