It must be said that Chen Yi had invested the most effort in Liu Ruyan. Even when he stirred up chaos in the Western Sea Realm where An Lan resided, he hadn’t worked this hard.
First, he summoned the Golden Dragon of National Fortune to invite the Great Zhou Dynasty to its demise. Then, he reasoned with the Heavenly Dao of this realm. On top of that, he had to track down and capture every fleeing Great Zhou official to restore order and reassure the people...
While all this effort essentially turned Liu Ruyan into a cultivation accelerator—ready for deployment in no time—it still felt like something was missing.
After all that exertion, the final mission reward was only sixty million points and three million group experience, barely enough to fill the cracks between his teeth. It still felt like a bit of a letdown.
Fortunately, the chat group was quite considerate and didn’t let him toil in vain.
[Ding! Mission reward recalculated.]
[Updated reward for overachieving: One billion points, forty million group experience.]
[Rewards have been deposited into your chat group account. Please check.]
[Friendly reminder: The Heavenly Dao of this realm has detected you but has not expelled you. You may return at any time.]
Pure bliss—Chen Yi was genuinely thrilled.
With this haul, his account balance would skyrocket to 1.55 billion points. Converted entirely into Immortal Yuan Stones, that would be 7,500 stones!
At a rate of one hundred stones per one-star clone to nurture an immortal physique, he could now elevate all his clones to the same level!
Without hesitation—whereas before, the chat group had to nag him to return while he dragged his feet—now he was the one urging the chat group to hurry up and open the teleportation channel to bring his three clones back. He was in a rush!
Liu Ruyan, who had been mechanically signing documents like an emotionless machine, suddenly felt the Phoenix Crown of National Fortune grow heavier. A strange emptiness settled in her heart.
After a brief pause, she vaguely guessed what had happened. She immediately stood up and scanned the surroundings. Confirming that the damned group leader had indeed vanished, she planted her hands on her hips and burst into laughter:
"Hahaha! My ministers, your Heavenly Venerable is gone! Now, this is my empire!"
"Come, say it again—who do you obey? Me or the Heavenly Venerable?"
The civil and military officials exchanged glances, then answered in perfect unison:
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Venerable has decreed that we need not hesitate to offer candid counsel. Should you wish to dismiss us, you must petition the heavens for approval!"
Liu Ruyan’s smile froze.
This was no fun.
Being an empress was utterly joyless.
......
Inside the Illusory Star Cave.
Only after his mission clones returned did Chen Yi claim his rewards.
[Ding! One billion points have been deposited. Current balance: 1.55315 billion points.]
[Ding! Forty million group experience has been added to the Level 108 group system.]
The next moment, the group system notifications went wild in the muted chat.
[Ding! The group leader has claimed the mission rewards. Group experience +40,000,000.]
[Group level upgraded to 36. 7,000,000 more experience needed for Level 37. Keep it up!]
[Group welfare check-in rewards upgraded. Members can now claim 3,600 points daily.]
[Group red packet limit increased to 360,000 points per day.]
[New feature unlocked—'Super Comprehension.' Members can spend points to activate Super Comprehension, entering a hyper-frequency state where no problem is unsolvable. Cost: 10,000 points per second.]
"Oh? Not a bad feature, though a bit pricey. The others probably can’t afford it..."
Chen Yi frowned, pondered for a moment, then lifted the mute on the entire group.
[TMD the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is still chasing me: The new feature’s decent. Here’s some points for you to try it out.]
[Group leader sent a 360,000-point luck-based red packet.]
After sending the red packet, Chen Yi enabled "Do Not Disturb," unwilling to endure the flood of sycophantic praise from the members. Instead, he opened the Multiverse Store interface, ready for a proper shopping spree.
[Spend 1.2 billion points to exchange for 6,000 Immortal Yuan Stones?]
[Friendly reminder: This transaction may not be the most cost-effective. We recommend exchanging for a single drop of Pangu’s Essence Blood at 1 billion points for better value.]
Chen Yi: "..."
Well, well. He usually ignored those outrageously priced display items, but who knew he’d actually saved up enough to afford one?
But then again... Pangu’s Essence Blood for just a billion points per drop?
Is this stuff legit?
Are you just casually milking Pangu the Great God? Does he even have that much essence blood for you to extract?
Curious, Chen Yi tapped on the product details.
[Pangu’s Essence Blood: Exchange for 999,999,999 points.]
[Description: The essence blood of a Chaos God who once forged a major world. Contains vast primordial chaos energy and fragments of the Great Dao Laws. Effects: Nurtures the body, enhances vitality, aids in comprehending the Dao, and more.]
Hiss—
This is the real deal!
Tempting... very tempting...
Nope. Close tab!
Chen Yi shut the details page without further hesitation.
As incredible as it was, it didn’t suit him.
His true self didn’t dare use it, and his clones couldn’t handle it.
The last thing he needed was a clone evolving into a mini-Pangu, potentially overtaking him and declaring itself the true original.
He reopened the Immortal Yuan Stones page, ignored the system’s "friendly reminder," and clicked "Confirm Exchange."
[Payment successful. Items have been delivered to your personal storage. Please check.]
"Extract all!"
Hummmmm—
Space trembled as a crystalline mountain of Immortal Yuan Stones materialized out of thin air. Thick immortal energy instantly saturated the entire Illusory Star Cave.
The next second, the Purple Star Heavenly Dao came sniffing around like a dog.
"Brother Yi, such rich immortal energy! Is this for me? I could totally evolve further—"
"Scram. I need this for something else."
"Got it!"
The Purple Star Heavenly Dao promptly withdrew its will and thoughtfully sealed off the Illusory Star Cave—just in case Brother Yi’s activities attracted too much attention. An Immortal Ascension Tribulation would be... inconvenient.
After all, they’d been partners for years. If Brother Yi succeeded, it could ride his coattails to greatness. And if he failed... No, no—Brother Yi would succeed!
Sigh...
Inside the cave, Chen Yi took a deep breath to steady his restless emotions.
With a wave of his hand, he set aside 480 Immortal Yuan Stones as backup. The remaining 5,520 stones were divided into 46 portions of 120 stones each, which he infused into each of his 46 ordinary one-star clones—including the one hosting the chat group system!
Refining Immortal Yuan, transforming into an immortal physique—it all began now!
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.

Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
