This time, it was Jiang Che's turn to be stunned.
Holy crap, the Peach of Immortality has taken human form!
And not just any form—a delicate, adorable little loli!
"Wuwu... you bit me!"
In front of Jiang Che, a girl no bigger than a bean sprout was rubbing her bottom, tears glistening at the corners of her eyes.
Her hair was a soft pink-white, blending seamlessly with her pristine skin. Clutching a giant celestial peach in her arms, her eyes slightly red, she sat cross-legged beneath the Peach Tree of Immortality. At a glance, it was clear—she was a little peach spirit.
A celestial peach taking human form... and as for her clothes... ahem, best not to look!
"I didn’t bite you. Don’t go slandering me. I’m a gentleman! I should be asking where you hid my celestial peach!"
Jiang Che clasped his hands behind his back, doubling down on shamelessness.
"I am that celestial peach!!!"
The little pan-tao gritted her teeth in explanation.
She wasn’t a spirit born from the peach tree branches. Instead, she was the peach itself, having developed sentience just before ripening. All that talk earlier about rebirth into a true peach immortal tree? Total nonsense!
Unless someone ate her and planted her pit in immortal soil for a few hundred thousand years, there’d be no chance of her evolving into a true elixir.
But she never imagined Jiang Che actually had the means to elevate her into one!
In fact... she had a feeling her current state surpassed even the original elixir's essence.
"Heh... so you’re just a peach spirit who gained sentience," Jiang Che chuckled before tossing her a hanfu dress. "Put this on, quick!"
"Mm!"
For this little peach spirit, life experience was practically nonexistent. Though she’d gained intelligence, she’d spent every day up in the tree, her mind as pure and unblemished as a blank sheet of paper—no concept of shame whatsoever.
Once dressed, she settled beneath the Peaches of Immortality tree, her bright, curious eyes fixed on Jiang Che.
"How did you do it? I feel like my life essence has improved so much!"
"What was that liquid you gave me earlier? Just one drop completely transformed me!"
"You can call me Yao Yao! That’s what everyone calls me!"
"Master, I’ll work hard to grow peaches for you—just please don’t bite me again. It really hurts~~~"
Yao Yao...
Honestly, Jiang Che was momentarily at a loss.
He’d assumed the peach was some genderless entity. Who knew it’d turn out so... juicy?
Lately, he’d grown tired of fish—maybe some peaches would be a refreshing change?
This was getting absurd!
He’d just vowed not to follow in Wang Xizhi’s footsteps, but faced with Yao Yao’s dewy innocence, Young Master Jiang silently recited: Sin, sin!
As the Buddha said: If I don’t descend into hell, who will?
"Can you actually grow Pan Tao?" Jiang Che asked.
Of course! If you give me lots of immortal soil, I can produce peaches really fast!
Yao Yao beamed, utterly trusting of Jiang Che now.
Back in the Nine Heavens’ Jiang Clan, even the Mother Peach Tree had suffered—what kind of top-tier immortal ancestor couldn’t even provide divine-grade farmland?
At first, she’d looked down on this lower-realm master... but now? She’d hit the jackpot of the millennium!
"Immortal soil..."
Jiang Che’s eye twitched as he glanced at the five-meter-tall peach tree. For something this size, he’d need at least a dozen cubic meters of the stuff.
One square meter costs 100 million points (system points). Another investment of over 10 billion?
Was this a joke?!
He’d been planning to buy Jia Ling'er some Stonefolk’s Tears to enhance her bloodline. That girl had become his devoted fan—it’d be wrong not to reward her.
Money might be plentiful, but budgeting was still tight!
"Originally, the celestial medicine peach took 30,000 years to bloom, 30,000 to bear fruit, and 30,000 to ripen—90,000 years total for just nine peaches. But now, it feels different..." Yao Yao mused.
"How so?"
“My current form is the Pan Tao Xian Tree, but without its original essence. The fruit won’t elevate mortals to immortal bodies anymore. Instead, they’re packed with life-prolonging essence—substances that extend lifespan!”
"Meh, I never expected mass-produced immortal bodies anyway. More importantly—how fast can your peaches mature now?"
“Much faster! Just a few months per batch, and way more than nine! With my current life essence stores, each Pan Tao can extend life by 10,000 years!”
"Peaches infused with life-prolonging essence? Now that’s broken."
Jiang Che understood now—longevity material was the ultimate pursuit of all cultivators!
Its effects never diminished. A steady supply meant true immortality!
His system’s Supreme Longevity Pills contained traces of it, but Yao Yao’s Peaches of Eternal Life were on another level.
Truthfully, she wasn’t just a Peaches of Immortality tree anymore. The Tree of Eternal Life suited her far better!
In terms of sheer overpoweredness, Yao Yao now outclassed the original Pan Tao Xian Shu tenfold!
Immortality via peaches—ripe in months, no diminishing returns. Owning Yao Yao equaled owning eternity itself!
Even for denizens of the Nine Heavens, eternal life was an irresistible lure.
With infinite time, even a pig could cultivate into an immortal!
Lacking talent? Just grind it out!
Yet to Jiang Che, immortality meant nothing.
His system’s endless supply of exquisite longevity pills made lifespan a non-issue.
"Still, those 10+ billion points weren’t wasted. Consider it your bride price!"
"Huh? What bride price?" Yao Yao blinked up at him, confused.
"Quit looking at me like that—I’m feeling way too guilty here!" Jiang Che groaned internally.
After the yellow soybean powder incident, he’d thought himself shameless enough. But apparently... he still had some conscience left.
Not much, though!
"Yao Yao, remember what I said earlier? About making you produce peaches quickly?"
Jiang Che grinned like an uncle luring a loli with candy.
"Eh?" She tilted her head.
"Did you know? For a peach tree, peaches are just seeds—the result of blooming!"
"Seeds?"
"Exactly!" Jiang Che laughed.
Just then—
"Jiang Che!!! What nonsense are you spouting now? Scamming little girls—have you no shame?!"
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.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
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!"
