The formation shattered, nine venerables' blood flew in reverse, as the tribulation of all living beings ended with the dawn star's return.
Ask not who holds the cauldron in the mortal realm—when twin venerables unite, divine majesty is established.
Wait a second?! Where did this BGM come from?!
The remaining eight venerables trembled violently.
They stared in disbelief at Qin Luo and Su Muwan below.
Their pupils quaked intensely.
Two... two venerables in one faction?!
Wait, what?
Are venerables just cabbages in your household?
Breaking through so casually?
This can't even be explained by sheer luck anymore!
As beings of the Great Thousand Worlds, they knew all too well how difficult it was to reach the Venerable realm.
Even they had spent countless years to achieve it.
Not once, in all their time searching for chess pieces across minor worlds, had they encountered anyone who could break through to the Venerable realm within one!
Yet now... what was happening?
These two insignificant ants, with their pitifully low fortunes, had... broken through simultaneously?!
Especially that ice-wielder... huh?!
As the eight pondered, they suddenly noticed that the faint golden aura of fortune around Su Muwan had... completely vanished.
In its place—overwhelming malice, deathly intent, bloodlust, and a myriad of other nauseating, tangible horrors!
This aura wasn't just terrifying—it carried a despair that seeped into the bones.
A single glance at her felt like one's soul would be corroded by that deathly intent, instantly reduced to ashes.
The surrounding air distorted, as if space itself was collapsing under her presence, emitting a low, ominous hum—like the wails of countless vengeful spirits.
One of the eight staggered back, his face as pale as paper, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
His heart pounded violently, as if it might burst at any moment.
Another dropped to his knees, clutching his chest, struggling to breathe—as though an invisible hand was strangling him.
Su Muwan's aura continued to surge endlessly.
The malice, deathly intent, and bloodlust coalesced into a dense black mist around her.
Within the mist, twisted faces flickered—howling, screaming, as if drowning in endless agony and resentment.
At this moment, Su Muwan had become the embodiment of death itself.
Her very existence was a curse, an inescapable calamity.
Every breath she took carried suffocating deathly intent, as if even the heavens and earth trembled before her.
Indeed, with Su Muwan's breakthrough to the Venerable realm, Qin Luo's concealment technique had faded—revealing her true fortune to all.
"What... is this?"
"How can something so horrifying exist?"
"An abomination!! This is the real abomination!"
"A world-destroying evil!"
Their pupils shrank to pinpricks, their faces twisted with uncontrollable terror as they stared at Su Muwan.
This feeling...
It reminded them of the moment their homeland's coordinates had been discovered by those monstrous entities.
Below.
Su Muwan blinked.
She glanced at her palm, where an icy-blue pattern slowly materialized—as if the laws of heaven and earth had taken physical form in her grasp.
"So this is the Venerable realm..."
She murmured softly, frost clinging to her lashes. "The Law of Extreme Cold... can freeze time itself."
"But..."
Su Muwan couldn't help but roll her eyes. You could've just said this was the power of laws!
She'd been freezing time since her past life!
So this was an ability she could only officially obtain after reaching the Venerable realm? Ridiculous.
Meanwhile, Qin Luo opened his palm, revealing a pure white law manifesting in his hand.
This was...
He closed his eyes.
[The Law of Life]
The Law of Life—endless vitality.
So that's how it is.
Another survival tool added to his arsenal.
However.
Qin Luo glanced at Su Muwan, activating his Heavenly Eye. He could clearly see her antagonist fortune had grown even thicker.
Does this kind of fortune also level up with her?
No matter. Once this was over, all the fortunes of the Chosen Ones present could be funneled into Su Muwan.
Above.
The eight venerables hovered midair, their expressions grave.
Their eyes were locked onto the icy patterns spreading beneath Su Muwan's feet—
A rare law manifestation, even in the Great Thousand Worlds!
Yet such a law... had appeared on what might be an abomination!
They couldn't let this threat escape!
"Hmph!"
One of them snorted, trying to suppress his unease. "So what if they've both reached the Venerable realm? There are only two of them! We have eight!"
"Exactly!"
Ming Ku smirked coldly, his Nine Nether Ghost Claws reforming. "Two freshly ascended Venerables, daring to act so arrogantly before us? How laughable!"
The Jade Pure Palace elder raised his sword, starlight gathering at its tip. "Ants will always be ants. Even as Venerables, their lowly nature remains unchanged!"
The eight exchanged words, trying to mask their fear with bravado.
Yet their voices carried a faint, unmistakable tremor.
Su Muwan's smile deepened.
She slowly raised her hand, a swirling orb of icy-blue light forming in her palm—as though she held the frigid essence of an entire ocean.
"Oh? Is that so?"
Her voice was light, almost playful. "Then... why don't you try?"
Before the words fully left her lips, she vanished.
In the next instant, she stood before one of the Venerables.
Splat!
A crisp sound echoed as the man was instantly frozen and shattered into countless icy fragments before he could even react.
Another soul fragment—annihilated.
Silence.
The remaining seven Venerables' pupils trembled violently as they stared at Su Muwan in disbelief.
A single absurd thought echoed in their minds:
No... this isn't a monster.
This is an abomination.
They exchanged glances.
Su Muwan stood there, examining her palm, her lips curling uncontrollably. "Huh? I just tapped him lightly... and he died?"
"!!!"
One of them finally snapped.
With a roar, he unleashed his full power, charging at Su Muwan. "You vile witch!!"
"Die—"
Splat!
Before he could finish, Su Muwan flicked her finger.
The man froze solid mid-sentence—then, without pause—
Crack!
Under the horrified gazes of the others, his body crumbled into dust.
Su Muwan blew on her fingertip and rolled her eyes.
Seriously?
Are you all mentally ill or something?
First it's "poisonous witch," then "demoness," now "vile witch"—did you all rehearse this together?!
But...
Hehehe...
Her lips curled into a grin she couldn't suppress. "Ah, the good old days are back."
The era of boring one-shot victories had returned.
Qin Luo chuckled softly. "As expected of the young miss. Invincible within the same realm, with cross-realm slaughter as her passive skill."
Mmm... Hahaha... Kekekeke!!!
Su Muwan listened, her expression shifting from a faint smile to one of smug satisfaction, then finally erupting into unrestrained laughter.
She sneered at the six remaining figures in the sky, her voice dripping with malice: "Old fools, you’re next in line for death!"
!!!
"This can’t be real!!"
The other six trembled with rage, their eyes wide in disbelief—none of them had even seen Su Muwan’s movements clearly.
With just two casual strikes, she had taken down two of their Supreme Masters?
Even if they were mere soul fragments—this was no small matter!
The damage from their destruction would still be inflicted upon their true bodies in full force!

] [Lone Wolf, No Male Gaze] [Protagonist is pursued early on; extreme protagonist-stans, stay away!] The "Carnival Paradise" descends and slowly devours the real world in the form of a game. By chance, Zhu Yan awakens the talent [Roleplay], becoming one of the first beta players. He thought he could develop safely, but after clearing the first instance, he is branded by humanity as the chief culprit behind the game's spread—a traitorous villain. A villain? Who would ever... become one! He'll be the villain! From then on, Zhu Yan is not only a player but also a lackey for the Carnival Paradise. Between the straight path and the crooked path, he chooses the con. With his left hand, he dons the villain's mantle, staging scenes within instances, infuriating players who decry him as a despicable traitor, all while the game happily promotes him. With his right hand, he joins the non-human organization "Fangcun Mountain," which opposes the Carnival Paradise, transforming into a mysterious player who slaughters game bosses, earning cheers of "Long live the expert!" from fellow players. Gradually, Zhu Yan rises to become an S-rank human player in Fangcun Mountain's archives, while also being the Carnival Paradise's certified top game Boss. But when the final war erupts and both major factions place their hopes in him— Players tag his various aliases: "Experts, this offensive depends on you." The Carnival Paradise's supreme Boss throws an arm around his neck: "Bro, you're the iron, I'm the steel; you can't let me down again!"

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

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!

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
