From this day on, the Ten-Thousand Soul Banner learned a new technique called "Physical Redemption."
When the power of mysticism fails to solve a problem, always trust in physics!
Even the occult has its scientific side.
Qingtai and Canxing had been sealed for so long that the Ten-Thousand Soul Banner's repeated attempts to refine them had already drained much of their soul power.
Now, on top of that, you had given them a thorough beating.
Plus, you could temporarily be regarded as a War God, and by using the War God's cultivation to drive the Ten-Thousand Soul Banner, its effect naturally became stronger.
"We pledge allegiance to our lord!"
After being redeemed, Qingtai and Canxing knelt before you on the spot.
Hu Tiangong, who was busy summoning countless demonic beasts to gather, was stunned.
Even an Earth Venerate could be turned?
A Dragonman Celestial Venerate—you could be that and more!
You took two Dragonman corpses out of the Cauldron Realm.
These were two Dragon Saint corpses you had carefully selected during your battle with the Dragonman army.
The prerequisite for Dragonmen to freely exchange bodies with their kind is that the other person's body must still be alive.
Corpses won't work.
But you had soaked these bodies in Star Source.
According to Old Shen's theoretical research, this method was feasible.
When Canxing and Qingtai tried it, their souls were indeed able to take residence!
Now, as long as these two used the Super Soul Battle Method to enter the Dragon God state, they could serve as the formation's eyes.
But not here.
The Seven Luminaries refer to the sun, moon, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth of heaven and earth.
Each of the seven formation eyes connects to one luminary, granting the formation's master the power to draw upon the world's primal force!
Simply put, once the formation is complete, the formation's master becomes that very world!
Consider the world as a computer; the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation is the peripherals (keyboard, mouse, speakers, microphones—all external devices).
With peripherals, you can operate that computer, instead of just staring helplessly at the world's power.
The seven individuals serving as the formation eyes must stay in specific positions.
Where exactly?
You don't know.
Who does know?
Old Ancestor Shen knows.
He had studied the principles for thirty thousand years, but he wasn't just shutting himself in—he also wandered the world, seeking inspiration and ancient lost texts.
In that process, he discovered seven unique places in the world where cultivators could more easily access the attributes of the Seven Luminaries.
Remember how we mentioned that the "three energies" before the Martial King stage—spiritual energy—and the "true energy" after the Martial King stage, both have Five Elements attributes?
Your true energy is of the Fire element.
The crystals in this world also have Five Elements attributes.
If you train at the Fire Luminary point, it becomes easier.
Old Ancestor Shen summarized the Seven Luminary points several thousand years ago. When you took Shen Qingshan to the Star Domain to find him and presented the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation, he told you where the Seven Luminary points were.
Wuxiang began his destruction from Xiliang, and floods ravaged the land.
A strange bloody mist emanated from Wuxiang, endless and boundless, shrouding the earth.
The land was plunged into a bloody gloom. Sunlight couldn't penetrate, and the essence of heaven and earth was decaying.
All living beings wailed in despair.
The apocalypse had arrived!
While waiting for the Seven Luminaries to take their positions, you worked tirelessly to save people in the hardest-hit areas.
Every life saved was one life spared.
You witnessed the sense of duty among the martial artists.
Some resisted the floods, some dispelled the blood mist, and others fell beneath Wuxiang's unmatched power.
The Human Realm Allied Forces had just ended their war with the Dragonman army, with no time to even return to their homelands for a visit, before they had to throw themselves into a new war.
Warriors were dying.
Common folk were falling in pools of blood.
Homes were submerged by the floods.
The beautiful mountains and rivers were shrouded in a hopeless crimson.
You waited, and waited...
The Sun Luminary point was in the Star Domain's Star Force Mystic Realm. Shen Qingshan had taken his position!
The Moon Luminary point was on Star Domain's Mingguang Star. The Dragon God had taken his position!
The Metal Luminary point was in the Great Wilderness's Baishi Mountain. The Great Demon had taken his position!
The Wood Luminary point was in the Nanjiang's Sacred Forest Valley. Earth Venerate Qingtai had taken his position!
The Water Luminary point was in the Chaotic Crystal Sea. Earth Venerate Canxing had taken his position!
The Fire Luminary point was at the Cangqiong Ridge. The Phoenix God had taken his position!
The Earth Luminary point was in the Great Qian Capital. Li Wentian had taken his position!
"The Seven Luminaries have taken their places! Borrow the power of heaven and earth! Activate the formation!!"
You were at the very center of the continent.
Beneath your feet lay a grand formation pattern, naturally formed along the course of mountains and rivers.
At intervals, it passed by underground crystal mineral veins.
The formation would autonomously draw the essence of heaven and earth from these veins.
The grand formation started from beneath your feet and extended in all directions, to the heavens above and the earth below.
These arrangements had been completed before the formal battle with the Dragonmen, when you, in your capacity as the Holy Son of the Sacred Ground, mobilized resources from all sides.
Today, they finally came into play.
The scale of the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation was even more exaggerated than the First Heaven's Span. You could say the entire Human Realm had become part of the formation!
The seven divine-level combatants stood at their positions. When the formation's power reached them, all of their strength was drained away by the grand formation in that instant.
In the Great Qian Capital.
Li Wentian gazed at Li Chengqian, who lay at his feet, a smile on his face.
"As expected of my descendant! Minister of the Imperial Clan, where are you!"
"Your servant is here!"
"Grant Li Chengqian the name—Li Chengqian!"
Then, all of Li Wentian's power transformed into a beam of brown energy, flying toward where you stood.
Li Wentian himself once more turned into a bizarre ball of flesh.
This time, the flesh ball rapidly decayed, crumbling like dead leaves.
The nearby Li royal clan and the entire civil and military court wept bitterly.
They wept once for the Ancestral Dragon, who would vanish from now on.
They wept twice for the late Emperor Li Chengqian, who had passed away.
On Baishi Mountain.
The Great Demon felt the power of the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation.
He knew that the strength he had painstakingly preserved would be lost.
"Dear disciple, do you have such faith in your master? Heh heh..."
The Great Demon raised his hand to resist the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation, refusing to provide his power.
But when the formation's power surged toward him, his hand dropped.
"Hua Wuyan!! Either keep your word and vanish forever, or break your word and be tormented by your inner demons!
Hahaha! Brilliant plan! Brilliant!! As expected of my disciple!
I hate heaven! I've cut off the other shore! Achieved in skill, yet failed in the Dao!
I hate it!!!"
The Great Demon transformed into a beam of golden energy, flying toward your direction.
In the Star Domain, in the Star Force Mystic Realm.
Old Ancestor Shen was muttering to himself.
"Shen Qingshan, from now on, everything in the Star Domain is in your hands."
"Ancestor, you..."
"Chen Yi's formation will drain all my power. While I won't be utterly annihilated, I can no longer coexist with you. Just toss my soul into this Star Force Mystic Realm and let me keep company with my rows of bookshelves."
"Ancestor!"
A brilliant red light burst forth from Shen Qingshan, dazzling as the sun, and it too flew toward your location.
The Dragon God, the Phoenix God, Qingtai, Canxing.
The seven war gods stationed at the seven luminaries points—all of their power has been drained away.
Seven beams of light, each a different color, drawn by the might of the celestial formation, converge upon you from every corner of the world.
This is not a simple matter of seven plus one. Once the power is fully gathered, you will hold dominion over this entire realm!

ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine!

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...

ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
