The union of Yin and Yang is also a path to the Great Dao, depending on how cultivators choose to walk it.
Mutual benefit is righteousness, while harming others for personal gain is wickedness.
Though Li Yuanyuan's methods may seem unorthodox, they cannot be called evil as long as both parties consent.
Still, her path is undeniably narrow. Such cultivation may have a high floor, but its ceiling is far lower than the steady, step-by-step perseverance—especially when she has access to the vast resources of the chat group and the support of two top-tier cultivation techniques.
She should have a brighter future ahead, not be trapped in this shadowed present.
Admittedly, Chen Yi’s innate urge to "save fallen women" flared up again.
But after a moment of contemplation, he could only sigh faintly.
Ah, let her be. This is the path she has chosen, and there’s no turning back before she reaches the end.
[TMD the Heavenly Tribulation is Still Chasing Me: Li Yuanyuan, you’ve passed. But the "Great Devouring Heaven Art" is too fierce and domineering, unsuitable for the Yin-Yang fusion path. Use this instead.]
[The Group Owner has shared the file "Transplanting and Grafting Inner Canon" and designated group member 'I Hate Cilantro' for download.]
In a softly lit, pink-hued room, Li Yuanyuan—her skin like polished jade, her beauty enchantingly alluring—suddenly sat up, her glistening eyes filled with complex emotions.
She had expected the Group Owner to disapprove of her using two upright cultivation techniques for such an unorthodox path, even braced herself for a scolding. Yet, not only did he not criticize her, he didn’t even mention it—showing no disdain, only concern, even bestowing a technique better suited to her cultivation?
Group Owner, you…
Tears streamed down Li Yuanyuan’s face. Since crossing into this world, she had been trapped in circumstances beyond her control, forced to endure humiliation with a smile.
If she had any other choice, would she have willingly fallen into depravity?
She had no way out. She had lingered too long in the shadows, grown accustomed to the cold and damp. The long-lost sunlight would only scorch her now. There was no going back—those beautiful days were gone forever.
Group Owner, did you understand this? Is that why you chose to support me with a new technique instead of preaching redemption like some savior?
Wuwuwu…
Li Yuanyuan burst into loud sobs, as if pouring out all the grievances she had suppressed in her heart.
On the other side, seeing that she hadn’t downloaded the technique after so long, Chen Yi shook his head and shifted the group’s attention away from her, tagging the last two members.
[TMD the Heavenly Tribulation is Still Chasing Me: @Unemployed God of Light @Self-Redeeming Villain, only you two left. Who’s next?]
[Self-Redeeming Villain (Zhao Gao): Senior, maybe you go first?]
[Self-Redeeming Villain: Senior?]
[Self-Redeeming Villain: ……]
[Self-Redeeming Villain: Reporting to the Group Owner, I am Zhao Gao, a branch disciple of a prominent clan. The wicked young master stole the childhood sweetheart of a man named Lin Hao and ordered me to eliminate him. But after investigating, I discovered this Lin Hao is no ordinary man!
No matter how I ambush or scheme, he always escapes death, even gaining fortuitous encounters mid-flight, his cultivation soaring until he turns the tables and slaughters my lackeys!
In desperation, I triggered a quest for help, but even the former Group Owner Mu Chen couldn’t handle him. Without a doubt, this Lin Hao is the Chosen One of this world—and I’m just the villain’s disposable underling!
This realization terrified me. I begged the clan to send stronger experts to erase him, but that brain-dead young master called me useless, berated me for failing to crush a mere insect, and even banished me until I capture Lin Hao. I swear, that moron— him!
With no support from home and the protagonist now fixated on killing me, I’m cornered. Though my cultivation is higher, I can’t defeat him. I’m constantly fleeing, triggering quests for help left and right. That bastard Mu Chen farmed points happily, but I’m the one dying here!
Thankfully, at my lowest moment, you appeared like a beacon, pulling me from the darkness. What Chosen One? Before your 1.8 billion combat power, he’s just a chicken! Just say the word, and I’ll charge at him right now!
One more thing: driving him back rewards 2 million points, a quest I can trigger twice daily. Killing him, though, nets 1 billion. Whether to farm sustainably or cash in big—I’ll follow your lead!
Lastly, my combat growth stats: 15 days ago, I was at 800,000; now, 820,000. I’ve only grasped the second layer of both techniques. My aptitude’s a bit lacking, sorry.]
"Tsk tsk, 2 million for driving him back, but 1 billion for killing him? Interesting…"
Chen Yi’s gaze darkened.
Given his years of dealings with the Heavenly Dao, he could guess: this Lin Hao was undoubtedly nurtured by that world’s Heavenly Dao, meant to stabilize its foundational laws or elevate the world’s rank.
So driving him back is fine—what doesn’t kill him only makes him stronger. Trials and tribulations!
As the saying goes: When Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility, it first tempers the heart, strains the bones, starves the body, empties the self, and thwarts all efforts—to toughen resolve and strengthen incapabilities!
But killing him? That’s defying the Heavenly Dao. If Lin Hao truly faces death, the Heavenly Dao will intervene without fail.
This mirrors Chen Yi’s own past—when he stripped the Great Zhou Dynasty of its dragon-vein fortune, destabilizing the world’s laws, the Heavenly Dao raged and struck back relentlessly.
Fighting an entire world, enduring the Heavenly Dao’s wrath to achieve his goal—1 billion points is a fair reward.
Still, compared to a one-time payout, Chen Yi prefers the sustainable 2 million per run.
Twice daily, 2 million each—in 250 days, he’d net 1 billion, with pure profit afterward. Even a fool would pick this!
Sure, it’s tedious, but Chen Yi doesn’t have to lift a finger.
After all, Fang Zheng, now at 3 million combat power, is no pushover. And the chat group’s stats only measure base strength, excluding weapons and treasures!
With the "Star-Suppressing Seal" Chen Yi gifted him, Fang Zheng can face opponents with 10 million combat power without fear. Why let such a capable member idle when he’s already invested so much?
Let Fang Zheng handle the quests while the Group Owner reaps 50% of the points—what could be better?
With that in mind, Chen Yi replied:
[TMD the Heavenly Tribulation is Still Chasing Me: Zhao Gao, though you failed this assessment, given your circumstances, punishment is waived. Prepare yourself. Upholding sustainable principles, specific arrangements will follow post-assessment. Await further notice. Next.]
......
Yet after two and a half minutes, the summoned An Lan still hadn’t responded, leaving no clue as to what he was doing.
Chen Yi frowned and spoke up again.
[TMD the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is Still Chasing Me: @Unemployed God of Light, what’s the matter? Too ashamed to face me because your cultivation progress is trash? Speak!]
Another two and a half breaths passed before An Lan finally replied in a frantic rush.
[Unemployed God of Light (Adolf Anlan): Sorry, sorry! Just wrapped something up. My bad, I’ll reflect on this…]
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
