Jiang Che had never imagined that one day he would become a firecracker.
Crackling and popping for three days and three nights!
"BOOM!!!"
The fusion failed. Jiang Che's body was fundamentally incompatible with that Primordial Demon Heart, resulting in a direct explosion!
Fortunately, this was an independent space Jiang Che had created using his system; otherwise, the self-destruction of a peak Martial God... would have been enough to flatten an entire continent.
"Damn, I'm really speechless. Is this Primordial Demon Heart so hard to subdue?"
Jiang Che grinned wryly. This demon heart was like a naked, cute little loli singing and dancing right in front of you, yet you just couldn't reach her, and she would even kick you in the face!
But luckily, Jiang Che's willpower was strong enough.
Continue igniting! Launch!
"Boom!"
After dying several hundred more times, the Primordial Demon Heart gradually began to loosen—it was genuinely annoyed!
A mere Martial God-stage ant actually wanted to fuse with its noble demon heart? So it resisted desperately!
But alas... Jiang Che could keep this up for a whole year.
Not long after, this incredibly tsundere Primordial Demon Heart was completely conquered by Jiang Che, transforming into a heart brimming with demonic energy that merged into Jiang Che's original heart.
This change wasn't about replacing a part of Jiang Che's body; it was submission from the very origin. Just as the system had said... this Primordial Demon Heart would not affect him.
The demon heart had been purified. Otherwise, if anyone else tried... they would definitely have their consciousness seized by the Primordial Demon Heart and be possessed for rebirth by the Demon Ancestor.
After all, the origin of this demon heart was utterly terrifying.
After fusing with the Dao Body's demon heart, Jiang Che continued to try fusing with that demon bone.
With the demon heart already in place, fusing the demon bone became much simpler.
He even succeeded without dying once.
With a Demon Ancestor-level demon heart and demon bone, Jiang Che then discovered to his astonishment... that his original Chaos Immortal Body, Void Immortal Body, and the like had all vanished from within him!
"No!!! My Haotian Immortal Body!"
Jiang Che was horrified!
To marry the Grand Yin Mystic Maiden, Gu Wantang, he had specifically spent a fortune to purchase this Haotian Immortal Body. But now, it just disappeared without a word?
The most crucial part was... he hadn't even gotten to use this Haotian Immortal Body more than a few times before it was gone?
A huge loss!
[Host, please do not panic. It is merely that the Dao Body has overshadowed your Immortal Body. The abilities of the Immortal Body are still present...]
"That's a relief!" Jiang Che let out a sigh of relief.
He could do without the Chaos Immortal Body and the others, but this "Sun-Sky"... ahem, this Haotian Immortal Body absolutely could not be lost!
After all, if he really met up with that Gu Wantang later and she discovered he wasn't actually a Haotian Immortal Body, getting cut down within a few rounds would be embarrassingly humiliating.
"But this Dao Body isn't that great either, huh? And it's a Demon Ancestor's... I don't feel any difference now? Not only did my strength not increase... I haven't even gained the slightest insight into any demonic Dao laws."
[Host need not worry. You only need to gather the demon heart, demon blood, demon bone, demon flesh, and demon soul... to transform into the Demon Ancestor. At that time, forget demonic Dao laws, even the demonic Dao origin will be yours.]
"Oh? Are you sure I won't be replaced by the Demon Ancestor this way?" Jiang Che said jokingly.
The system fell silent for a long time.
[Host, no one cares about you more than I do.]
Jiang Che smiled, not taking the system's words to heart.
However, after fusing the demon heart and demon bone, Jiang Che was in no hurry to deploy his demonic physique to go "fishing."
Even without the factor of that Immortal Emperor, he would have exchanged for the Dao Body anyway; her appearance merely accelerated Jiang Che's timeline for the exchange.
If he could also become a disciple under an Immortal Emperor while obtaining the Dao Body, that would naturally be even better.
Of course, Jiang Che's intention to become a disciple was definitely not to learn skills, but to "ride the master and scorn the ancestors"!
What Jiang Che did not know was that his fusion of the Demon Ancestor's heart directly triggered an avalanche-like chain reaction!
......
High above the Nine Heavens.
Beyond the Heavens, a towering bronze ancient pagoda that pierced the clouds emitted a faint, trembling hum.
The pagoda stood tens of thousands of zhang high, and who knew what kind of demons and monsters were suppressed within.
At the summit of the pagoda, a figure in plain clothes sat atop the pinnacle, with white robes and white hair... sitting cross-legged with hands on knees, white hair dancing in the wind, a long sword hanging at the waist.
And beneath her, on this giant pagoda, three large characters could faintly be seen.
[Seal Demon Pagoda]
"The demon heart... the demon bone..." The woman sighed softly, her voice seeming to drift from afar yet arriving close at hand.
At that moment, the Seal Demon Pagoda beneath her began to tremble again, this time more violently than before.
"Behave!" The woman slapped the pagoda's surface, pouring vast immortal power into it.
The pagoda instantly fell silent.
"The mortal realm... Master... heh..."
Meanwhile, beyond the Nine Heavens.
The alien evil spirits also seemed to sense something.
Their assaults on the mortal realm began to intensify.
"The aura of the Demon Ancestor!!!"
Countless eyeballs rolled within the endless black mist, and from the dark ends of the world, faint echoes of evil whispers could be heard.
"It's the Demon Ancestor! He's in the mortal realm!!!"
Innumerable skeletons crawled out from mountains of corpses and seas of blood. From the desolate, uninhabited wasteland, a colossal, decaying arm as huge as a mountain range burst forth, carrying billowing evil spirit energy.
...
"Burp~~~~ I'm full, really full!"
Outside the Seal Demon Altar, a colossal tree blocked the front of a dark hole.
The pitch-black hole connected to the evil spirit world of another dimension.
Lin Mu was blocking the entrance, his body entwined with dense black energy, but all of this energy was being absorbed by him. Just as he said... he was truly full!
This guy was blocking the spawn point waiting for monsters to respawn, and his current strength was now infinitely close to the Nirvana stage, while the evil spirits spawning from the black hole were at most at the Half-step Martial God stage.
This was basically an all-you-can-eat buffet, leveling up like crazy!
Moreover, he had a genuine Child of Destiny by his side, Chu Yuan!
"Hey, hey, leave a couple for me! I'm waiting to devour them to level up!" Chu Yuan complained.
"Tsk~ Another freshly spawned batch, and you ate them all again," Chu Yuan sat down cross-legged, looking disgruntled. If not for the barrier of the realm... he would have even wanted to cross directly through the black hole into the other world to farm monsters!!!
One must know, a Shattering Heaven-stage evil spirit could provide him with 1 point, a Divine Passage-stage one with 100 points, and a Martial God-stage one with ten thousand points!!!
And his current cultivation had already reached the early Martial God stage. With the enhancement of his Immortal Body... he was fully capable of handling things alone.
"Hmph! If it weren't for this black hole blocking the way... I would have wiped out all the evil spirits long ago!" Chu Yuan boasted.
However, the very next second!!!
"ROAR!!!"
The entire secret realm began to tremble, the earth shaking and mountains quaking!
From the depths of the black hole, a blood-red eyeball could faintly be seen.
"ROAR!!!"

Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"

reezy rom-com) Good news: Jiang Liu is quite the ladies' man. Bad news: He’s lost his memory. Lying in a hospital bed, Jiang Liu listens to a parade of goddesses spouting "absurd claims," feeling like the world is one giant game of Werewolf. "Jiang Liu, I’m your first love." "Jiang Liu, you’re my boyfriend—she’s your ex." "Jiang Liu, we’re close friends who’ve shared a bed, remember?" "Jiang Liu, I want to have your baby." The now-lucid Jiang Liu is convinced this must be some elaborate scam... until someone drops the bombshell: "The day before you lost your memory, you confessed your feelings—and got into a relationship." Jiang Liu is utterly baffled. So... who the hell is his actual girlfriend?! ... Before recovering his memories, Jiang Liu must navigate this minefield of lies and sincerity, fighting to protect himself from these women’s schemes. But things spiral even further out of control as more people show up at his doorstep—each with increasingly unhinged antics. On the bright side, the memories he lost due to overwhelming trauma seem to be resurfacing. Great news, right? So why are they all panicking now?

world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...

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'!"
