"You are Lu Ze?"
Chi Shengtian looked at Lu Ze with a peculiar expression.
He had assumed that the young man capable of creating "Immortal Realm Domination" and "Three Kingdoms Slayer" must be an outstanding cultivator blessed with great fortune.
But when he used his Qi Observation Technique just now, he found Lu Ze utterly unremarkable—someone who would vanish in a crowd.
"That’s right."
Lu Ze silently activated the [Frost Breath Technique].
This high-level concealment art, stolen from Li Moran months ago, had proven incredibly useful.
Especially after he poured nearly a century of cultivation experience into mastering it, reaching its peak perfection.
Now, with the enhancement of his immortal physique, it was downright heaven-defying.
Unless someone probed his soul with divine sense, he could deceive the eyes of most cultivators.
And given his displayed cultivation level, who would bother scrutinizing him so thoroughly?
"May I ask why Elder Chi has summoned this junior?"
"It’s not me, but my disciple who has a request for you…"
Hearing this, Lu Ze grew even more curious.
On the way here, he had asked Nangong Yuan about the Grand Elder of Tianxuan Sect.
Among the five great sects, Tianxuan had the fewest disciples.
Each elder typically only had one or two true disciples under their tutelage.
The Grand Elder Chi Shengtian’s true disciple was Tianxuan’s Holy Son, rumored to possess an absurdly prodigious talent for cultivation.
"Shen Yan."
At Chi Shengtian’s call, a strikingly handsome young man with sharp brows, starry eyes, and flowing long hair rose respectfully from his seat.
"Your disciple is here."
"A guest from afar is a guest indeed. Show our visitor from Lingxiao Sect around Tianxuan Sect."
……
……
Nangong Yuan and the other elders went to the main peak to set up formations and establish servers.
Meanwhile, Lu Ze followed the legendary Holy Son of Tianxuan Sect for a stroll through the sect grounds.
"Brother Shen, are Tianxuan disciples prone to envy?"
Lu Ze asked curiously.
"Disciples of Tianxuan have always upheld righteousness. How could we be envious?"
Shen Yan frowned, puzzled by the question.
"Why would Brother Lu say such a thing?"
"Brother Shen, from what I’ve observed, all the Tianxuan disciples around us are secretly staring at you… and their gazes don’t seem friendly!"
Lu Ze lowered his voice conspiratorially.
"You strike me as an honest man, Brother Shen. You must be careful of knives in your back!"
"Uh…"
After hearing Lu Ze’s warning, Shen Yan’s expression turned slightly odd.
"Brother Lu."
"Yes?"
"Is it possible… they’re actually looking at you?"
"Huh?"
……
After Shen Yan’s explanation, Lu Ze finally understood.
Turns out, his infamy had long spread throughout Tianxuan Sect.
All thanks to the true disciple Guo Yunwen, who had participated in the recent martial exchange.
Back then, "Immortal Realm Domination" was all the rage, and disciples were clamoring for "local specialties" from Lingxiao Sect.
Guo Yunwen not only brought back premium goods like "Immortal Realm Domination," "Plant vs. Zombies," and "Demon Sect Escape,"
but also threw in "Cultivator’s Descent: 100 Floors" for good measure.
The motto? "If I suffered, I’m taking everyone down with me."
That one wasn’t so bad.
After all, if you couldn’t beat it, you could just quit.
Since Tianxuan lacked the main illusion crystal, disciples couldn’t see the rankings or scores of other sects.
After getting wrecked, they’d just rage-quit and curse a bit.
But later, when Lin An demanded that his peak’s disciples clear "It Takes Two," their resentment toward Lu Ze reached new heights!
Rumor had it many were still stuck on that one…
"Haha, but personally, I find Brother Lu’s illusion realms quite fascinating! My juniors could certainly use some tempering of their resolve."
Shen Yan didn’t seem bothered at all—in fact, he praised Lu Ze enthusiastically.
"Fascinating?!"
Lu Ze was stunned.
Even he, who had experienced "I Wanna" in his past life, would never describe it so generously.
"Brother Shen’s mental fortitude is truly exceptional!"
Lu Ze couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up.
This guy was hardcore.
"I’m not sure… My master says I’m a born Dao Seed. Maybe it’s innate."
Shen Yan sighed wistfully.
"If there’s anything in this world that could shake my Dao Heart, I’d love to see it."
"That might be tough."
Lu Ze shrugged.
Anyone who could enjoy "Cultivator’s Descent: 100 Floors" and "It Takes Two" with a smile had willpower far beyond ordinary people.
"By the way, Elder Chi mentioned you had a request. What is it?"
"Ah, this matter… it relates to Brother Lu’s expertise in illusion realms."
For once, Shen Yan’s face flushed slightly as he awkwardly summoned his weapon.
It was an absurdly massive warhammer.
Forged from rare darksteel and spirit crystals, its craftsmanship screamed extravagance.
But no matter how heavenly the materials or how steep the price,
it was still just a hammer.
In short,
it was kinda lame.
"Though I have some talent for cultivation, my swordsmanship is… lacking."
"Yet for some reason, hammer-type weapons suit me perfectly."
Shen Yan sighed mournfully, stroking the hammer with regret.
After his lament, Lu Ze grasped the situation.
Turns out, this guy was a born hammer cultivator but yearned for the grace and elegance of the sword path.
He wanted to master the sword.
But even the Grand Elder couldn’t teach him—let alone anyone else.
Then Shen Yan tried Lu Ze’s illusion realms.
He sensed something profound hidden within them.
"I’ve heard Brother Lu excels at crafting illusion realms, always using clever designs to bring unexpected breakthroughs for cultivators…"
Lu Ze internally facepalmed:
‘Who the hell told him that? I make these things to torture people, not help them train!!’
"So, could Brother Lu design an illusion realm to help me comprehend the true essence of swordsmanship?"
Shen Yan’s gaze was earnest as he struck a particularly dramatic pose.
This guy really loved showing off…
"Uh, maybe you could try ‘Plant vs. Zombies’…"
Lu Ze deflected.
"I know! I train in ‘Plant vs. Zombies’ every day!"
Shen Yan said seriously.
"But we both know it’s just for basic sword swings and repetition. I need something deeper—an illusion realm that can help me grasp the Dao of the Sword!"
Lu Ze’s eye twitched.
This guy was seriously dedicated…
"Honestly, being a hammer cultivator isn’t so bad…"
Lu Ze opted for consolation.
Come on.
He was a demonic cultivator.
Why would he ever create illusion realms to help righteous cultivators train?
Not even for money!
Just then,
the System’s voice echoed in his ears:
[Host has encountered the Righteous Path’s Holy Son. His Dao Heart is unshakable—a future calamity for the Demonic Path!]
[Quest: Shake the Holy Son’s Dao Heart]

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!"
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? 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!
+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!
