"Now that's what I call quick thinking!" Jiang Che slapped his thigh, his eyes gleaming with newfound brilliance.
As everyone knows, whenever a group gathers, there’s always one mastermind—and Jiang Che was undoubtedly the greatest mastermind on Blue Star!
"A single Lightning Ward Talisman only costs 100,000 points. Even with some additional items thrown in... a million points would be the absolute max. But with just a million points, I might be able to trade for a physique comparable to an immortal’s!"
"Not only can I exploit the tribulation physique, but I can also milk the Heavenly Tribulation Elixir..."
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. The only downside was that Chen Ningshuang would have to suffer... Sending an ordinary girl to endure an epic-level Heavenly Tribulation?
Only Jiang Che would dare pull off something like this.
"Wan'er, have you ever felt frustrated by your lack of cultivation talent?"
Yu Wan'er: "???"
Cultivation talent? She had no idea what that even was. She hadn’t even bothered reciting the so-called "Human Emperor Scripture." All she knew was that cultivating with Jiang Che made her strength skyrocket.
"Hehe, Brother Jiang Che, isn’t that what you’re here for?" Qin Qiaoqiao giggled as she wrapped her arms around Jiang Che’s.
It wasn’t that they didn’t cultivate—it was just that their solo progress paled in comparison to the gains from dual cultivation with Jiang Che. Why bother with the hard way?
"Innate immortal physiques are hard to come by, but I can help you acquire acquired ones!" Jiang Che snapped his fingers.
Cultivation physiques were divided into innate and acquired. The former referred to those born with extraordinary constitutions, like the Chaos Immortal Physique or the Void Immortal Physique—legendary physiques of unparalleled power. As for acquired immortal physiques... they were usually forged through Heavenly Tribulation tempering. But the kind of tribulation needed to refine an immortal physique... most people couldn’t even trigger it, let alone survive it.
This led to an awkward dilemma: those capable of summoning and enduring such tribulations were likely already innate immortal physiques themselves, making the acquired ones little more than a bonus. Meanwhile, those who actually wanted acquired physiques... couldn’t survive the tribulation.
"Really? Brother Jiang Che, I want an immortal physique too!"
"I’ll test it out on Ningshuang first to see if it works!"
With that, Jiang Che vanished on the spot.
[Husband, you’re not planning to...] Mo Lianxing seemed to have guessed his intentions and gasped.
"Exactly what you’re thinking. Your husband here... is about to exploit the Heavenly Dao itself."
Mo Lianxing: "......"
She knew Jiang Che was outrageous, but to openly exploit the Heavenly Dao? Wouldn’t the Heavenly Dao punish him for this?
Logically speaking, the Heavenly Dao shouldn’t be this blind and deaf, right???
But she didn’t dare question it. She could only cling tightly to Jiang Che’s... thigh and be his little accessory.
"Darling, how about I get you an immortal physique and temper your body so you can experience it firsthand?" Jiang Che suggested.
[Sure, but my soul power already far surpasses the Nirvana Realm. If I gain an immortal physique, I might instantly leap to the peak of the Creation Realm, triggering a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation...]
Mo Lianxing couldn’t help but feel tempted. An immortal physique—something she had never even dared to dream of!
...
"Dong'er, I’ll activate my Void Immortal Physique and enter the thunderclouds. You go to the Thunder Pool and collect the tribulation elixir. Here’s an Immortal-grade Life Substitution Talisman—keep it safe!"
Jiang Che called Dong'er over and handed her the talisman. If the Heavenly Dao got angry... he couldn’t let her die for nothing.
Dong'er lowered her head. "Understood."
The silver-haired little loli was as obedient as ever.
Honestly, Jiang Che was shocked when he saw her. This little girl’s cultivation was even higher than his?
Eighth Revolution Transcendent Realm!!!
It was absurd. She hadn’t even triggered a tribulation when breaking through—just silently grew stronger.
But no matter how strong she became, she remained sweet and docile. If it were Yu Wan'er with this kind of power... she’d have turned the world upside down by now!
After Dong'er left, Jiang Che glanced up at Chen Ningshuang, who was enduring her tribulation.
A thousand tribulations were nothing to her.
But now... Jiang Che was about to spice things up.
[Ding! Host has scammed ‘Chen Ningshuang,’ earning 500,000 Scam Points.]
Jiang Che: "???"
What the hell?
Who’s scamming anyone? I’m just securing benefits for my woman—how is that a scam?!
Jiang Che cursed inwardly.
......
"J-Jiang Che? What are you doing here?"
Amid the thunderclouds, Chen Ningshuang stood in an ancient white robe, its fabric shimmering with starlight and radiant streams. The celestial glow shielded her from much of the tribulation, allowing her to bathe leisurely in the storm.
A Saint-grade defensive treasure—the Starlight Immortal Dress!
Naturally, gifted by Jiang Che.
A single Saint-grade treasure only cost a few million points, and Jiang Che had already equipped all his women with full sets.
"You’ve got me now—why work so hard?" Jiang Che gently caressed her cheek.
"Well... I don’t want to be just a pretty vase. I want to grow stronger too..." Chen Ningshuang’s gaze hardened with determination.
If Jiang Che had only her as his woman, she wouldn’t bother cultivating alone—dual cultivation with him every day would be paradise.
But Jiang Che’s harem kept growing. Over twenty now, and more in the future. Relying solely on dual cultivation wouldn’t cut it—even if the efficiency was high, diluted across dozens, it couldn’t match solitary training.
"Wait! Jiang Che, why are you here? The tribulation will target you too—"
Chen Ningshuang panicked.
"Don’t worry. I have the Void Immortal Physique. The Heavenly Dao can’t detect me, not even the tribulation."
"Oh~" She never doubted his words.
"Heh..." Jiang Che wrapped an arm around Chen Ningshuang and looked up at the roiling thunderclouds. Dong'er had already reached the Thunder Pool.
Time to begin.
Let the tribulation... rage even fiercer!
Jiang Che smirked. Fortune favors the bold!
He was about to give Chen Ningshuang a genuine acquired immortal physique.
Back when his little brother faced tribulation, Jiang Che had faked a "Nine Suns Immortal Physique" for him with illusions. The kid ended up triggering the Heavenly Dao’s Eternal Tribulation and forged an Eternal Physique—a quasi-immortal physique!
Now, he was going all out—projecting a Chaos Immortal Physique onto Ningshuang during her tribulation!
No hesitation. Straight to illusions!
Chen Ningshuang didn’t even realize what was happening.
But the Heavenly Tribulation suddenly stuttered, like a computer glitching mid-process.
Then, in an instant, the tribulation transformed.
The thunderclouds vanished. The sky darkened to pitch black—so thick you couldn’t see your own hand. Only the occasional flicker of terrifying lightning remained, as if doomsday had arrived.
【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!

Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions.

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!
