Zhong Yi, Mu Yawen, and the Zhou siblings, Zhou Yue and Zhou Qiaoling, gathered once again.
The four of them simultaneously entered the illusory world.
Lu Ze's initial release of "My World" only included Creative Mode and Survival Mode.
The other modes had yet to be launched.
After briefly skimming the descriptions of the two modes, Zhong Yi quickly made a decision.
"Definitely Survival Mode! That one looks way more fun!"
Zhong Yi decisively announced to the others in the room.
"Huh? There are more options?"
After selecting [Survival Mode], two additional choices appeared.
[Standard Edition: You will explore the world and strive to survive as an ordinary person.]
[Spiritual Revival Edition: This world has thin spiritual energy, allowing you to slightly enhance your abilities. In this mode, monsters will become significantly stronger. Choose carefully!]
The Standard Edition was nearly identical to the original "My World" from his past life.
The Spiritual Revival Edition, however, incorporated elements of modpacks, making it more fitting for a cultivation-themed setting.
"Obviously the second one! Should I create the world now?"
After receiving unanimous agreement from the others, Zhong Yi proceeded to generate the world.
Compared to his past life, the world creation options were far fewer.
Features like "Allow Cheats" or "Keep Inventory on Death" simply didn’t exist.
The difficulty settings were now "Normal," "Hard," and "Infernal."
The "Easy" difficulty from before?
Completely absent.
Zhong Yi knew better than anyone how Lu Ze defined difficulty, so he didn’t dare overestimate himself. He selected "Normal" and entered the world.
After a brief moment of darkness,
Zhong Yi opened his eyes and looked around, his expression filled with confusion.
"Is… is this a tree?"
He was utterly baffled.
In this world, terms like "pixel art" or "blocky graphics" had never existed.
The art style was… unique.
Zhong Yi glanced down at himself and realized his body was rendered in the same blocky fashion.
"Brother Zhong, what’s wrong? Is the difficulty too brutal?"
Zhou Yue asked cautiously.
This time, Lu Ze had integrated a party voice chat feature into "My World," allowing them to communicate seamlessly.
"Not at all, it’s just the art style is a bit unusual… Come on in! I think this’ll be really fun!"
Zhong Yi shook his head and explained.
Though the visuals were strange, they weren’t unbearable.
Compared to the original "My World" from his past life, the illusory world’s graphics were actually an improvement—akin to having high-quality texture packs installed.
Zhong Yi’s spawn point was in a forest atop a hill.
He stood at the edge and looked down.
Countless blocks stacked together, forming mountains and forests that stretched endlessly into the distance—a breathtaking sight.
In that instant, any initial reservations about the "cheap" aesthetic vanished.
"Hey, what’s this about ‘Random Spawn’ and ‘Follow Spawn’?"
Zhou Yue’s voice chimed in again.
"‘Follow Spawn’ probably means spawning near me, while ‘Random Spawn’ would place you somewhere else?"
Zhong Yi answered instinctively.
Being the only one physically present in the illusion, he had a better grasp of the world’s vastness.
Even from this vantage point, the mountain range seemed endless.
"This world is huge. Splitting up to explore might actually be a good idea."
Zhong Yi suggested.
"Great plan! Let’s pair up—Brother Zhong, you take Junior Mu, and Qiaoling will stick with me. We’ll explore separately… Hah! I bet I’ll outperform you this time!"
Zhou Yue’s competitive spirit flared up.
"Alright, Brother, go ahead and spawn. I’ll follow you."
Zhou Qiaoling nodded.
"On it!"
Without hesitation, Zhou Yue selected "Random Spawn."
The next moment,
Zhong Yi’s voice echoed in his ears:
"What’s going on? Junior Sister Zhou, weren’t you supposed to explore with Brother Zhou? Why are you here with me…"
"Pfft, I lied to him… Who knows what kind of trouble he’d drag me into?"
Zhou Qiaoling didn’t bother hiding her disdain.
"…"
Zhou Yue immediately protested.
"It’s just an exploration and monster-fighting illusion! How could I possibly mess you up?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he materialized in Zhong Yi’s world.
Glancing around, Zhou Yue blinked in bewilderment.
"Brother Zhong… where exactly did you spawn?"
"On a high mountain, next to a forest… Why?"
Zhou Yue took a deep breath and scanned his surroundings again.
He had spawned on a tiny, isolated island.
If it could even be called an island.
It was more like a small mound of dirt—about ten blocks wide, with no trees or stones in sight.
Just endless ocean stretching in every direction.
"Someone tell me… how am I supposed to leave this place…"
……
……
Upon learning of Zhou Yue’s unfortunate predicament, Zhou Qiaoling giggled in relief.
"Good thing I didn’t go with my brother… Oh! A bunny!"
Her attention was caught by a small rabbit, and she immediately chased after it.
"Senior Brother Zhong, what should we do now?"
Mu Yawen scratched his head, looking lost.
"No idea… Let’s just wander around for now?"
Zhong Yi shrugged.
"Okay…"
Mu Yawen nodded and walked up to a large tree.
"HYAH!"
He threw a punch, causing the tree to shake.
"What are you doing…"
Zhong Yi rolled his eyes.
"If we’ve got nothing else to do, why not train? Didn’t they say we could cultivate here?"
Mu Yawen cheerfully replied, throwing punch after punch at the tree trunk.
Just as Zhong Yi was about to mock him, he noticed something astonishing—
Cracks began spreading across the tree where Mu Yawen’s fists landed.
With a loud THUD,
A chunk of the tree broke off.
A small wooden block dropped to the ground and instantly vanished into Mu Yawen’s body.
"Eh? Where’d the tree go?"
Mu Yawen’s fist swung through empty air, leaving him puzzled.
"Took ten punches to break one block? You’ve got a long way to go."
"Junior Mu! Look at your hand!"
Zhong Yi pointed excitedly at Mu Yawen’s palm.
The wooden block he had just "harvested" was now clutched in his grip.
In that moment, Zhong Yi began to understand how this illusory world worked.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
