【Countless years after the Ancestral Emperor passed away.】
【Countless years after the Age of the Celestial Emperor ended.】
【Countless years after the human race sank into a darkness without end.】
【When the pollution appeared once more.】
【The Emperor used a wisp of his power that remained in the world to suppress the pollution for his subjects once again.】
【The pollution on Purple Violet Star vanished!】
【The cultivators cheered and celebrated.】
【“The pollution’s gone! It’s gone! We can finally cultivate normally again! Hahahaha!”】
【“What just happened? I only felt an incredibly powerful pressure, and then the pollution disappeared!”】
【“Who cares what it was? As long as the pollution is gone, that’s all that matters. The sky is finally bright again!”】
【Near the Emperor’s Tomb.】
【Your heart was filled with indescribable shock.】
【Was it the Celestial Emperor? Was the Celestial Emperor still alive?】
【That was the thought you heard most often at that moment.】
【Ji Baiming burst into tears.】
【“The Ji Clan is guilty…”】
【Ji Wuqing remained open and unashamed.】
【“Now I know why those bastards never destroyed this place.”】
【You smiled.】
【“They didn’t have the nerve.”】
【Even after endless ages following his death, he still intimidated every race!】
【You saw that even more cracks had appeared on the statue of the Ancestral Emperor.】
【Unlike the cultivators at the scene, whose faces were full of shock, the residents of Longevity Wood Village looked completely calm, as though they had long grown accustomed to this.】
【You stepped forward and asked around.】
【“Friend, does your funeral ceremony, held once every hundred years, awaken the Celestial Emperor’s power every time?”】
【The villager smiled.】
【“What do you mean by ‘awaken’? The Celestial Emperor has never left.”】
【The expressions on the villagers’ faces were those of devout pilgrims.】
【In their hearts, the Celestial Emperor had always been there.】
【He was merely asleep.】
【The residents of Longevity Wood Village could not explain the circumstances surrounding the Emperor’s Tomb. Their funeral ceremony was simply an ancient tradition that had been passed down to the present day.】
【They had followed the wishes of their ancestors, preserving this custom from generation to generation.】
【Before leaving Longevity Wood Village, you and the father and daughter pair, Ji Baiming and Ji Wuqing, paid your respects to the cracked statue of the Celestial Emperor.】
【Year 203. Age 227.】
【The mysterious power from the Emperor’s Tomb, beginning at Purple Violet Star, wiped out all the pollution throughout the Southern Star Realm.】
【Although the cultivators who had witnessed the power emerging from the Emperor’s Tomb spread the news, few people believed that the Celestial Emperor—already reduced to a figure of legend—could still have any power remaining.】
【Even if he did, there was no way it could be powerful enough to affect such a vast expanse of the universe.】
【The Celestial River Gazette only reported that the pollution had vanished, making no mention of the mysterious power.】
【They even claimed the credit for themselves, saying that the Sacred Dragon Society had developed a new type of spiritual treasure capable of specifically eliminating the pollution.】
【Through the joint efforts of all sides, the pollution had finally been eradicated.】
【As a result, even fewer people believed what the cultivators who had left the Emperor’s Tomb said.】
【After all, what you were talking about was unofficial history, while the Celestial River Gazette published the official version.】
【Once the pollution ended, the Peace Bureau once again focused its efforts on arresting wanted criminals.】
【Unfortunately, you were captured.】
【It wasn’t your fault.】
【Some threads had become entangled around you, Ji Wuqing, and Ji Baiming.】
【“This is…”】
【“Jinhai the Old Ghoul’s Law of Interpersonal Indexing!”】
【“Where is the man? This thread extends all the way to the edge of the heavens!”】
【“This isn’t a law—it’s a domain!”】
【“A domain?”】
【“That’s right. It’s an Immortal King’s method. He’s already broken through to the Immortal King realm!”】
【“Damn! Who’s the protagonist here?! Uncle Ji, I remember you saying that even if a thousand ninth-stage Immortal Monarchs cultivated for a thousand years, it would still be difficult for even one of them to break through to the Immortal King realm. How were we unlucky enough to run into one?”】
【“That’s under normal cultivation conditions. Don’t forget, the Peace Bureau is a direct organization of the Sacred Dragon Society. The Sacred Dragon Society possesses a secret technique that accelerates the birth of Immortal Kings!”】
【“Is that even reasonable?”】
【“Forget it. Jinhai is an Immortal King now. Even a hundred more of the three of us combined wouldn’t be able to defeat him. Split up and run—leave it to fate!”】
【Once the threads wrapped around you, it meant that your opponent was following them, tracing them back to you.】
【The three of you had no choice but to flee in separate directions, lest he take you all in one sweep.】
【Although there was a good chance he would catch you one by one anyway, at least this could buy you some time. Perhaps a turning point would appear.】
【Even with thirty-three Traits, you still felt intimidated when facing an Immortal King.】
【Although your opponent was a “dragon,” the “Dragon-Slaying Nemesis” Trait required you to touch his body with both hands.】
【An Immortal King of his stature would never allow you to get close. You had already realized this when you helped Ji Wuqing with the Ji Clan.】
【You had thought Ji Wuqing would be the first to be captured. Unexpectedly, Jinhai—who came chasing after you in a four-wheeled golden chariot—caught you first.】
【“Chen Yi, long time no see!”】
【Jinhai loomed high above you. The might of an Immortal King made it difficult for you to breathe.】
【You sensed a clear threat of death, so you took out the ghost talisman your second sister had left you and immediately activated it.】
【A phantom silhouette appeared in midair, its face and form impossible to make out.】
【The figure radiated the aura of an Immortal King.】
【Jinhai recognized it.】
【“The Red River Nether King!”】
【“That’s right! The Red River Nether King is my second sister’s master. If you harm me, you’ll bear the consequences!”】
【The Networking King’s connections failed him this time.】
【Because Jinhai was now an Immortal King, his status in the Celestial River Star System had risen considerably, as had his authority. He simply did not care about a Red River Nether King who was far away at the edge of the cosmos.】
【With no other options, you could only have Black Wind carry you at full speed as you fled for your life.】
【“Boss! Hold on tight!”】
【Smoke poured from Black Wind’s four hooves, but he still could not shake off Jinhai.】
【Jinhai had not even used any of his Immortal King power. The four-wheeled chariot beneath him alone was enough to catch up with Black Wind.】
【Jinhai waved his hand, and countless interpersonal threads wrapped around Black Wind.】
【“This dragon-scaled horse of yours is quite interesting. Why would it acknowledge someone like you as its master? I don’t want to kill you. Leave.”】
【Jinhai separated you from Black Wind, then used the interpersonal threads to bind you into a dumpling and carry you away.】
【“Boss!!”】
【“Black Wind! Go! We’ll meet again in our next lives!”】
【“Boss! I’ll definitely come save you!!”】
【This was Haosong City.】
【The Peace Bureau had built an execution platform here.】
【Layers of formations suppressed you, heavily armed soldiers guarded the area, and your entire body was shackled in precious treasures.】
【You had been kneeling on the execution platform, disheveled, for over a month.】
【Every day, city residents passed by the platform, pointing and whispering about you.】
【Above your head hung a gigantic guillotine blade.】
【Of course, a blade capable of beheading a cultivator was no ordinary object. It was a legendary-grade acquired spiritual treasure!】
【“This is gonna g me.”】
【You were remarkably calm.】
【Dying early had its advantages.】
【Your clone could not use Traits, which meant it could not maintain its youth.】
【By dying in the prime of your youth at over two hundred years old, in the next simulation you’ll be able to incarnate as a young Chen Six, instead of having all your previous simulated incarnations look wizened or sickly.】
【“Next time, I absolutely must master a technique that grows stronger by burning through my lifespan. That way, I won’t end up with a mountain of lifespan left with nowhere to spend it. Even if I have to explode alongside my enemy in the end, at least I’ll die with a clear conscience!”】
【Inside your Gourd-Heaven space, all the spoils you’ve gathered along the way—including the Myriad Souls Banner, the Demon-Refining Pot, jade slips containing various cultivation techniques, source stones, and more—are still there.】
【However, the various shackles and manacles around your neck, wrists, shoulders, and legs restrict the circulation of your divine power, preventing you from opening the Gourd-Heaven space.】
【The good news is that while you can’t open it, neither can anyone else. All of those things still belong to you.】
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.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
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!"
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...
