Three months passed in the blink of an eye.
Since joining the chat group, Chen Changsheng felt his time had suddenly become much more exciting.
Every day, when he had nothing to do, he would watch Gu Xiaoxiao show off in the group, and watch Eriri and Rikka excitedly share their and their families' cultivation progress. The three lively girls with different personalities always made the group members smile knowingly.
It was not like before, where every day he was either cultivating with the Mu Bing'er sisters or hiding his identity to secretly travel the four nations in search of girls with excellent aptitude who had not been discovered yet.
And Tony, a month ago, believing his knowledge in artifact refining was no less than a fourth-grade artifact refiner, impatiently took Yinsen back to his own world. In his words, as a genius, once the foundation was laid, he could completely teach himself. He also dismissed the iron rule of the cultivation world that to become a high-level artifact refiner, one must become a high-level cultivator.
During this time, he had been discussing with Ying Zheng about trading arms for raw ores.
Inside Chen Changsheng's main hall.
Chen Changsheng sat cross-legged on a futon. In front of him was a giant furnace over ten feet tall. The giant furnace had four legs and three openings. At this moment, the three furnace openings occasionally spewed out extremely hot golden flames. Inside the cauldron, a black and white Dao diagram of unknown material was being forged by an invisible force. With every strike, a trace of Dao charm would bloom on the Dao diagram, as if it was going to crush the void.
After an unknown amount of time, with another strike of forging, Chen Changsheng, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Now is the time!
A ray of Yin-Yang divine light rushed out of Chen Changsheng's dantian, flew straight into the giant furnace, and finally submerged into the black and white Dao diagram.
In the next moment, the originally ordinary Dao diagram suddenly bloomed with Yin-Yang divine light, then flew directly out of the furnace, soaring straight out of the Chen family estate.
And just as the Dao diagram reached an altitude of ten thousand feet, its originally palm-sized body swelled in the wind. In just a few breaths, it grew large enough to directly cover the entire Tianyun City.
At the same time, the heaven and earth spiritual energy and spiritual veins within a radius of ten thousand miles seemed to have been swallowed by a black hole, rapidly converging towards the Dao diagram.
In a short while, the residents of Tianyun City realized that the sky had gone dark.
Countless cultivators and mortals looked up and were horrified to find that there was no sun above their heads, and even the clouds were nowhere to be seen. There was only a pair of Yin-Yang Dao diagrams acting like a canopy, shrouding the entire Tianyun City. On it, a huge black and a white Yin-Yang fish chased each other in an orderly manner, finally disappearing into the thick fog.
This is! Spiritual energy turning into fog!
A cultivator noticed the peculiarity of this fog and could not help but exclaim. He had come to Tianyun City from out of town out of admiration. Now, looking at this scene of spiritual energy turning into fog, he felt his breathing quicken.
This was spiritual energy turning into fog!
With this level of spiritual energy concentration, even a casual breath would allow him to absorb spiritual energy equivalent to no less than a low-grade spirit stone. For a destitute rogue cultivator like him, who wished he could break a single spirit stone into two to spend, this was simply a massive opportunity.
However, soon after, this rogue cultivator noticed that the surrounding local cultivators were looking at him with pity after seeing him breathing frantically, which greatly puzzled him.
Forget it, acquiring the opportunity is the priority right now!
The rogue cultivator breathed frantically for several minutes, feeling his dantian slightly bloated, before he was satisfied and ready to go back and refine it.
However, in the next moment, the sun that had disappeared from the sky suddenly reappeared, and a cloud formed entirely of spiritual energy floated over Tianyun City.
A few breaths later, a light rain covering the entire Tianyun City began to fall. The local rogue cultivators, shouting wishes for Patriarch Changsheng's boundless longevity, began to take out magic bottles to collect the rainwater.
The rogue cultivator looked at their strange behavior and could not help but reach out to catch a falling drop of rainwater, only to find that this was no rainwater at all; it was spiritual liquid condensed from pure spiritual energy!
At this moment, he finally understood. Without hesitation, he imitated the previous cultivators, loudly praising Chen Changsheng's name, then took out the containers on his body capable of storing spiritual energy and excitedly began to collect the spiritual rain.
In the Chen family estate, Chen Changsheng was feeling the Yin-Yang Dao diagram in his dantian with a smile on his face. Suddenly, his expression shifted as he felt a few wisps of strange energy appear within the seven Dao seeds he had comprehended from his authorities.
This is?
Chen Changsheng somewhat doubtfully probed his divine sense into these few wisps of energy, only to feel faint, sincere praise and worship in his ears.
And these faint voices perfectly matched the voices coming from outside in Tianyun City at this moment.
Could this be the power of faith?
Chen Changsheng said with some uncertainty.
After all, he had never come into contact with the power of faith before, let alone seen it.
But right now, the energy within these Dao seeds could only be explained as the power of faith.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng looked at these wisps of faith power, pondered for a good while, and then transferred all the faith power from the other Dao seeds into the Harvest Dao seed.
This Dao seed had the least impact on his strength; it was only used to cultivate spiritual herbs and fleece points from the chat group. If the power of faith was truly toxic, discarding it would cost him the least.
After doing all this, Chen Changsheng faintly felt the life aura within the Harvest Dao seed grow a bit richer.
Truly worthy of the legendary power of faith, it is unreasonably strong.
Chen Changsheng sighed, then stopped paying attention to the Harvest Dao seed. With a thought, he summoned the Yin-Yang Dao diagram from his dantian and observed it with a smile.
After a long while, Chen Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.
From now on, you are my natal spiritual artifact, the Yin-Yang Diagram.
Yes, Chen Changsheng was forging his own natal spiritual artifact, and now, after three months, he had finally completed it.
Compared to the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd, the Yin-Yang Diagram Chen Changsheng refined this time had more comprehensive functions and greater potential.
If the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd was an offensive spiritual artifact that took the path of slaughter to its absolute extreme, then the Yin-Yang Diagram was the foundation of his Dao, carrying Chen Changsheng's own Dao of Yin and Yang. It was a divine weapon of Dao and reason that would grow stronger alongside Chen Changsheng.
To forge this Yin-Yang Diagram, Chen Changsheng spent quite a bit of time. Based on his vague understanding of artifacts from the novel Shrouding the Heavens in his past life, combined with the artifact refining techniques of the cultivation world, he created a crude, unique artifact quenching method.
When this method was first created, it was evaluated as tier-one by the chat group and was only worth 6,000 points if sold to the mall. Considering the mall's recycling price for knowledge-based items was one-tenth, this method could only barely be considered Golden Core level.
However, after Chen Changsheng spent tens of millions of points to upgrade it to tier-four, the value of this method reached the level of a tier-eight artifact refining technique in the cultivation world, standing at the very pinnacle of the cultivation world.
Therefore, the potential of the current Yin-Yang Diagram was vastly greater than that of the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd.

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. 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!"

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
