However, conventional methods couldn’t achieve their goal.
So…
Qin Luo lowered his gaze to stare at his palm.
He had to admit, this slap of his was truly versatile.
He couldn’t even determine whether his slap belonged to the rule-based, concept-based, or causality-based category.
After all…
When he instructed Little Ke and the others to hack into the Great Network of other Sacred Domains and broadcast their footage, they encountered countless obstacles.
The Great Networks of the Sacred Domains weren’t interconnected unless approved by the opposing Sacred Domain.
In short, an intangible barrier prevented them from hacking into the Great Network.
Then—
Slap!
Qin Luo swung his palm through the air, merely testing whether he could smack away this barrier.
And to his surprise, it worked.
It was as if his slap shattered the underlying rules, allowing Little Ke and the others to successfully infiltrate the Great Networks of other Sacred Domains.
In other words…
The barrier was like an electronic screen, while Qin Luo’s side acted as the control room, freely projecting any image they wanted across the skies of other Sacred Domains.
Crunch crunch crunch.
Su Muwan munched on potato chips beside him, blinking at the unfolding scene before turning to Qin Luo with curiosity.
She asked, “So, what’s the reason we’re starting a livestream?”
“Simple.”
Qin Luo began his little lecture.
He raised a finger and explained with a smile, “As mentioned before, the rules of this vast world are quite fascinating.”
“There’s the power of fortune, the power of virtue… and even your power of pure love, Miss Su.”
“So, let’s consider this—”
“If we start a livestream, couldn’t we harvest…”
Su Muwan’s eyes lit up as she cut in, “Faith power!”
The world was so vast—there had to be people who’d love watching such a novel, never-before-seen livestream!
That way, they could gain a fanbase and, in turn, passively accumulate faith power!
The more Su Muwan thought about it, the more sense it made.
Ye~ (＾－＾)V!!
Su Muwan, you’re such a genius!
“Wrong. It’s ratings power.”
“...What?”
Su Muwan’s eye twitched as she glared at Qin Luo. “What the heck is ratings power?!”
Qin Luo shrugged. “Who knows? I was just throwing it out there to see if this ‘whatever-I-say-comes-true’ power would manifest.”
Su Muwan: ?
Under Su Muwan’s exasperated gaze, Qin Luo cleared his throat. “But Miss Su, I have another reason for doing this.”
“What reason?”
“You haven’t forgotten our goal, have you?”
“What goal?”
“Sigh, don’t you remember? Containing the Mandate of Heaven.”
Containing… the Mandate of Heaven…
Rustle—
The bag of chips slipped from Su Muwan’s hand and fell to the ground.
Her pupils trembled as she let out a sharp, horrified shriek: “No way! That mission still isn’t over?!”
Can anyone relate?
Containing the Mandate-bearers in the minor worlds was one thing.
But now, in the vast universe, they had to keep doing it?!
How long was this going to take?!
Besides…
Su Muwan racked her brain. “Didn’t Doctor Ya say before that she only tricked us into containing the Mandate to buy us time or something…?”
Qin Luo helped jog her memory. “What Doctor Ya said was, to give us time to grow stronger, she had us slowly contain the Mandate.”
“After all, the standard containment process is for me, as the Sweeper, to follow the protagonists through their arcs, defeat the big bad, and then contain them in the end.”
“But now, the situation has turned into…”
Qin Luo pointed at himself. “Me, the Sweeper…”
Then at Su Muwan. “You, the big bad.”
Su Muwan: ?
“The two of us teaming up to mess up the Mandate-bearers’ scripts before containing them.”
Su Muwan was speechless. “Is there even a difference?”
“Yes.”
“Following the script normally to contain the Mandate doesn’t disrupt the narrative, so it doesn’t attract Abominations.”
“But our method not only ruins the script and draws Abominations—it also attracts Abominations beyond the current version’s power level!”
“Take that Abyssal Abomination, Xing Xuan, as an example. From him alone, you can see the power scaling is inflating. Rule-based enemies are already appearing.”
Hearing this, Su Muwan understood, but she was still frustrated. “This just makes me inexplicably angry.”
“I get it. Being manipulated like this is annoying.”
Qin Luo nodded, then changed his tone. “But look on the bright side.”
Su Muwan tilted her head. “What bright side?”
Qin Luo grinned amiably. “Back in the minor worlds, we were the only ones stuck cleaning up the mess.”
“But here? This is the vast universe.”
“The mess? Everyone gets to clean it up!”
“Otherwise, the Abominations will wipe them out, and everyone dies.”
“Whether they want to or not, they have to help!”
The moment these words left his mouth, Su Muwan felt as if enlightenment had struck. Her eyes gleamed. “You mean… we can cause as much chaos as we want, and the consequences get dumped on everyone else?”
“Exactly.”
Qin Luo smirked. “We stir up trouble, then force the entire universe to share the fallout. Problem solved.”
!!!
Su Muwan immediately scooted closer to Qin Luo, mirroring his smirk. “Hehehe… Luo Luo, you’re absolutely right!”
“But for you to come up with such a method… you really are a scheming little devil, aren’t you? Hehehe~”
“Oh, please, I learned from the best—you, Miss Su! Hahaha~”
“Hehehe~”
“Hahaha~”
Nearby, Doctor Ya, who had been dragged in as a background character, felt her eyelid twitch.
Just how did these two troublemakers come up with such a diabolical plan?
She suddenly wondered if letting Qin Luo, the Sweeper, ascend to the vast universe had been a mistake.
At this rate, would the vast universe collapse under their antics too?
Surely not… right?
But if it did… where would they even go next?
As she pondered this—
WOOO—WOOO—WOOO—!!
The blaring alarm of an enemy attack suddenly echoed throughout the lab.
Qin Luo and Su Muwan immediately dropped their villainous grins and turned to the surveillance screen.
On the screen—
The once-clear skies of the Sacred Domain were abruptly swallowed by a sinister, ghostly miasma.
Inky-black clouds churned like spilled ink, blotting out the sunlight.
“ROOOAAAR—!!”
“RAAAGH—!!”
From within the clouds, countless vengeful spirits and wraiths howled, their piercing shrieks tearing through the void and striking directly at the soul.
Not only that—
Within moments, the ghostly energy grew even denser, and countless spectral figures emerged from the dark mist.
Some wore armor and wielded spears—clearly high-ranking generals of the Nether Realm.
Others were grotesque, snarling specters with claws bared.
And at the forefront of these apparitions, a towering figure slowly stepped forward.
Cloaked in black, his face hidden beneath a hood, only his blood-red eyes were visible—glowing with bone-chilling malice.
It was none other than—
“HEHEHEHE—!!”
The Ghost Nether King let out a sinister laugh as he raised his hand, rallying his legions:
“My minions! Tear the Ming Yan Sacred Domain to the ground!!”
This newborn Sacred Domain… shall be MINE!
Simultaneously—
Qin Luo’s system issued a prompt.
【Detected T0 Protagonist of "Steal My Three Souls and Seven Spirits? I'll Fall into a Ghost and Revive the World!" — Ming Yan】
【Master, please act as his lackey! The system is currently upgrading, rewards will be issued afterward!】
Damn, another chosen one.
Well then...
Qin Luo glanced at the eager Su Muwan: "Young Miss."
Su Muwan curled her lips: "Got it."
She clenched her fist: "Let's finish him off instantly."
"But... Qin Luo... there's a problem..."
"What problem?"
"I'm scared of ghosts..."
Qin Luo: ?
Seriously, why did you bring this setting up from the lower realm?!
But!
A young mistress who's afraid of ghosts—absolutely adorable!!
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half? Shen Yuan: Forty-sixty split, I get forty, you get sixty! Protagonist: Deal! Big brother, come on, hit me! As long as it doesn't kill me, beat me like you mean it! Shen Yuan: Don't worry... I will definitely protect all of you! No one but me can lay a finger on you! Guard our Heaven's Chosen Ones! I'm the only one allowed to bully them!
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)
mance] After transmigrating for eighteen years, Lin Qi lived as an utterly ordinary herbalist in the countryside. One day, he kindly brought home a sickly, beautiful girl covered in blood. They married in a flash and began their blissful, intimate life together. Right then, his long-delayed system finally activated. [Warning! Host detected in contact with the "Crimson Calamity," the world-ending witch!] Lin Qi looked at the adorable wife currently curled in his arms, who couldn't even open a jar lid and trembled at the sight of a mouse. Lin Qi: "System, are you insane? This is clearly just a weak and delicate sickly girl!" Thus, Lin Qi treated the system as a "Contrast System," where taking care of his wife made him stronger. Combing his wife's hair rewarded him with [Free Attribute Points]. Taking his wife out for sunshine rewarded him with [Forbidden Spell: Arcane Explosion]. Lin Qi: "This soft life tastes so good!" ... Yet, in the eyes of outsiders: The strongest Beastkin Assassin: "That man dissected a Beast King with a common skinning knife! That was a show of force towards the powerful!" The Holy Son of the Radiant Church: "I infiltrated his home as a tutor, but he had me babysit the children... He must have seen through my disguise!" The World-Ending Witch, Felucia: "I hid all the way in the countryside. How is it that the husband I married on a whim is stronger than I was at my peak?"
