To use the chat group's teleportation channel, one must first pass through the detection system's scan.
This is a necessary measure implemented by the chat group to prevent unknown entities from infiltrating, leaving no room for negligence!
Chen Yi had struggled for a long time but still couldn’t adjust the detection system to his liking—it was overly sensitive. Every time things reached a critical moment, its reactions would become extreme, forcing Chen Yi to abandon his plans.
Thus, to ensure Mu Chen could smuggle the orb carrying seventy-six late-stage Fusion Realm cultivators from the Purple Star Continent into the Evil-Warding Secret Realm, an unconventional approach was needed.
Taking advantage of the detection system’s hypersensitivity, as long as a slight anomaly was triggered in the background to divert most of its attention, its surveillance over the teleportation channel would naturally loosen.
As for that specially modified orb crafted by Chen Yi—unless subjected to multiple layers of detection, the basic firewall wouldn’t be able to detect its peculiarities at all!
For this plan, he had spent thirty full days preparing, researching for exactly 2,592,000 seconds, and testing 250 billion times. Failure was absolutely impossible!
Pop~
Mu Chen smoothly passed through the teleportation channel’s protective barrier.
The orb carrying seventy-six late-stage Fusion Realm cultivators had successfully infiltrated!
[Welcome to Evil-Warding Instance No. 7—the Dream Marriage Secret Realm.]
[Here, countless Dream-Devouring Spirits will spawn, growing stronger with your fear. So do not be afraid, and do not stop charging forward. Slay them with all your might!]
[Select your difficulty: [Beginner] [Easy] [Normal] [Hard] [Hell] [Pre-Trial for the Demon-Slaying Proving Grounds]]
[Friendly Reminder: For the safety of trial-takers, the passive "Fate’s Decree" has been applied. When health drops to its lowest, "Dark Veil Descends" will trigger, allowing a full retreat.]
[Current Fate’s Decree passive usage count: 1,000,000,000]
"Huh?!"
"Holy shit—a billion Fate’s Decree passives?!"
"This... this can’t be the Evil-Warding Instance we know, can it?!"
The three veterans from the original Group Two were utterly shaken.
Unlike the clueless newcomers entering for the first time, these three had battled through the Evil-Warding Instance for years. They had practically experienced all thirty-three secret realms, their expertise was vast, and they could even claim to know every hidden rule within these realms like the back of their hands!
But...
This absurdly generous billion Fate’s Decree passives was something they had never seen before!
The newcomers might not understand, but how could they not?
Aside from the free Fate’s Decree passive granted during the beginner protection period, every subsequent use required 2 billion points to purchase!
A billion uses? That would cost 200 quadrillion points!
What kind of wealth was this?!
This had to be cheating, right?!
"Don’t make a fuss!"
At this moment, Chen Yi’s One-Star Immortal Body clone—finally cleared by the detection system—spoke with calm authority.
In a flash!
Gu Yuan instantly teleported over, bowing deeply in reverence. "Great Group Master, it’s been too long. How I’ve missed you. Strangely enough, I’ve always felt as though you were by my side, never truly gone. Perhaps it’s just my imagination, but when I look at mountains, they don’t seem like mountains; when I gaze upon waters, all I see is you..."
Chen Yi glanced at him indifferently. "Remove the ‘imagination’ part. The truth is, I’ve always been with you."
After all, he had originally sent eighteen colored orbs, yet Ye Wuchen, Group Two’s leader, had only brought back nine. So where were the remaining nine?
Exactly—they were idling in the Profound Mechanism World where Gu Yuan resided, embedded within the very essence of the Profound Mechanism Heavenly Dao!
Thus, Gu Yuan’s feelings were no illusion!
Upon receiving this confirmation, Gu Yuan grinned sheepishly. "No wonder I’ve felt so secure even at home. With you overseeing things, my heart is at ease."
Chen Yi shook his head slightly. "Gu Yuan, if one day I were to take away the Profound Mechanism Heavenly Dao’s Sub-True Immortal-grade Law Essence, how would you react?"
Gu Yuan paused briefly before answering swiftly, "Then I would simply congratulate the birth of a new immortal realm. I firmly believe that under your leadership, the Profound Mechanism World will emerge stronger after a brief period of adjustment, rather than remaining as it is now—monopolized and devouring all realms!"
Hearing this, Chen Yi chuckled and pointed at him. "You... you really know how to talk..."
In the distance, Fang Zheng watched the scene of his beloved Group Master chatting amiably with Gu Yuan, his fists involuntarily clenching.
Fine, fine. The world truly is teeming with heroes. Who’d have thought even such a niche competition would have rivals... Hahaha, this time, I’ve lost!
Lost because my cultivation is inferior, and my speed falls far short!
Just you wait—one day, I’ll surpass you!
When we stand on equal footing, we’ll settle this properly!
At the same time.
Further away.
The clumsy imitator, Xiao Chunan, noticing Fang Zheng’s clenched fists, gritted his teeth in secret.
Before I’ve even mastered Brother Fang’s essence, another formidable opponent appears... This path is truly crowded!
But then again, with two kings vying for supremacy, a small fry like me might actually learn more. Things just got interesting. If I can combine the strengths of both and make them my own...
Well, even if I can’t surpass them, at least I can stand as their equal!
Bring it on—I’ll never admit defeat!
Even further back.
Li Yuanyuan and Liu Ruyan, who had just met but hit it off immediately, whispered to each other.
"Sister Yuanyuan, look at Brother Fang and Brother Xiao. Tsk tsk tsk... Even the concubines in my harem weren’t this competitive..."
"Ruyan, you just don’t get it. Men are always inexplicably obsessed with being first. How does the saying go? When three men gather, one automatically becomes the idea king. And when three idea kings clash, they’ll inevitably fight for supremacy. They simply refuse to yield to one another."
"Tsk, men... Anyway, Sister Yuanyuan, your skin is so flawless! How do you maintain it? Can you teach me?"
"Hehe, since it’s you asking... I wouldn’t tell just anyone, you know..."
Gulp gulp~
On either side of the two women, Chen Bo and Adolf Anlan kept swallowing hard.
They had thought themselves desensitized, having rewatched those videos until the discs wore out, their hearts as still as water.
Yet, the moment they saw the real deal, their hearts couldn’t help but race like unruly little elephants.
"Pathetic, the both of you!" Zhou Zheng sneered in disdain, eyeing these two who had joined the group around the same time, feeling ashamed to be associated with them.
Meanwhile, Mu Chen and Shen Lang, the estranged duo, traded barbs while Zhao Gao and Wang Jian tried to mediate.
The two old-timers from the original Group Two glanced between the panel displaying a billion Fate’s Decree passives and Gu Yuan’s obsequious display, their pride warring with the temptation to follow suit.
For the first time, all members of Group 108 had gathered in person. After some bonding, distinct cliques formed. While not entirely isolated, the invisible barriers between circles were hard to break.
Chen Yi, orchestrating everything from the shadows, now had a clear picture.
He promptly assigned teams based on their traits.
My dear group members, are you ready to face the brutal beating of the Nightmare Spirits?
With a billion Fate’s Decree passives backing you, death is off the table—so let’s push you to the brink!
Oh, and let's not forget those seventy-six useless Nascent Soul stage babies of Ziwei—you all have a billion passive Lifespans too!
Between life and death lies great terror—I hope you can give me a big surprise as well!
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.
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!
