"You damn bastard, do you even know who I—"
[“Bai Mu” has slain “Blaze Immortal Venerable”]
[Demonic Path Value +0.3]
Lu Ze frowned.
After all this time, this trash named Xu Huoyao hadn’t improved his cultivation at all?
He didn’t even feel like killing him anymore.
After dealing with the two players from the Purple Team, Lu Ze took advantage of their respawn time to shop at the store.
He didn’t buy equipment like Black Iron armor or swords.
First, with his skill level dominating the entire match, he didn’t need them.
Second, being too overpowered would make it harder to farm system rewards.
Instead, he stuffed his inventory full of items that required spirit stones—Ender Pearls, Enchanted Bows, Diamond Pills, and Flying Cloud Elixir.
By then, the two disciples of the Qingshan Sect had respawned.
"You motherf—don’t you have your own base?!"
Xu Huoyao trembled with rage, fists clenched.
This bastard "Bai Mu" not only killed him but also had the audacity to shop in his team’s store right in front of him!
But what could he do?
He couldn’t win a fight, and he couldn’t escape either…
The only reason Bai Mu wasn’t attacking now was because of the invincibility period after respawning.
As the invulnerability was about to fade, Xu Huoyao turned and bolted toward the wool bridge without looking back.
"Just wait till I find out who you are, or else—"
"Annoying."
Lu Ze pulled out his bow and fired a single arrow, sending Xu Huoyao plummeting into the abyss with perfect precision.
[Demonic Path Value +0.3]
The meager gain in Demonic Path Value barely registered in Lu Ze’s eyes.
But he wasn’t about to let Xu Huoyao off easy either.
With that thought, he swiftly made his way to the Purple Team’s respawn point.
On this map, respawns occurred on a fixed patch of open ground.
Without hesitation, Lu Ze pulled out stacks of wool and began rapidly building upward.
……
……
In Zhong Yi’s livestream.
The viewer count had surged to an astonishing ten thousand!
Given the current player base, this was an insane number.
Countless spectators had flocked to Zhong Yi’s stream just to witness Bai Mu’s prowess.
"Brother Bai, do you have some kind of grudge against the Limitless Sword Sect and the Qingshan Sect? Why are you so relentless against the Purple and Red Teams?"
"Damn! True Disciple Xu is dead again! That archery is insane!"
"Honestly, True Disciple Xu should just shut up and learn from me—"
"Wait… what’s Brother Bai doing? Why’s he building upward?"
At first, Zhong Yi was baffled by Bai Mu’s actions—but then it clicked.
"I get it! Brother Bai is blocking the respawn point!!!"
"Once True Disciple Xu respawns, he’ll appear on top of this 30-block-high wool pillar…"
"If he jumps, he’ll die from fall damage!"
But then Zhong Yi frowned in confusion.
"Wait…"
"Couldn’t True Disciple Xu just dig his way down the wool?"
It was puzzling.
Manually breaking wool was slow, but not impossible.
Why would Bai Mu go through all this trouble?
Then, under the watchful eyes of ten thousand spectators—
Bai Mu pulled out a single block of obsidian and placed it at the very top.
Zhong Yi’s breath hitched.
No explanation was needed. Every viewer instantly understood.
[HOLY SHT!! OBSIDIAN!!!]
[You can’t break that by hand! So True Disciple Xu is just… doomed?]
[This guy’s a demon!!!]
[No way, is this kid actually a demonic cultivator??]
[This is some Lu Ze-level evil!!]
[Nah, this is worse than Lu Ze!!]
[Another demon lord rises—Bai Mu the Demon!!!]
Before Zhong Yi could recover from the shock, Bai Mu did something even more incomprehensible—
He leaped off the pillar.
"HOLY CRAP! Brother Bai just jumped?! Doesn’t he know he’ll die? He didn’t buy a water bucket!"
Zhong Yi gasped.
In Minecraft, there was a trick to avoid fall damage called "MLG water bucket"—placing water at the last second to cushion the fall.
But Zhong Yi had never seen Bai Mu buy a bucket, so panic set in.
Yet, in the next moment—
Just before impact, a wool block materialized beneath Bai Mu.
Simultaneously, a ladder was placed against its side.
Bai Mu’s health barely flickered.
"WHAT?! THAT’S A THING?!"
Zhong Yi was floored.
He immediately grasped the mechanics—using the ladder to switch from falling to climbing, negating fall damage.
But…
Pulling this off required placing a wool block mid-air, switching to a ladder, and attaching it—all in a split second!
Precision, reflexes, and judgment—all flawless!
Zhong Yi muttered in awe:
"Is this guy some kind of genius…?"
……
……
[Host has impressed righteous cultivator Zhong Yi with his skill, earning his admiration. Random reward obtained.]
[Reward: Ten Years of Enlightenment Experience]
Hearing the system’s prompt, Lu Ze raised an eyebrow.
This counted as loot?
Seems like being paired with Zhong Yi was the system’s way of rewarding him.
Anyone else wouldn’t understand his plays, let alone admire him.
Only Zhong Yi could.
THUD!
Nearby, another blocky character hit the ground and died instantly.
Lu Ze glanced over—it was Xu Huoyao’s teammate.
Guess he didn’t believe the three-second invincibility wouldn’t save him from the fall.
Little did he know, Lu Ze had calculated the height precisely—three seconds of freefall meant death the moment invincibility wore off.
"You dare humiliate me like this?! Do you have any idea what happens when you provoke the Qingshan Sect?!"
Xu Huoyao was livid, jabbing a finger at Lu Ze while cursing.
"No idea."
Lu Ze shook his head, drawing his Enchanted Bow again.
"But I do know what happens when you provoke me."
TWANG!
Another arrow sent Xu Huoyao tumbling off the wool pillar, securing yet another kill.
Now, the Qingshan Sect’s Purple Team was stuck in a brutal loop.
Respawn on a death pillar.
Jump? Die.
Stay? Bai Mu’s arrows would send them flying anyway.
Death was inevitable.
"Damn you, Bai Mu! Once I get out of here, I swear—"
PING!
[Demonic Path Value +0.3]
"You—"
PING!
[Demonic Path Value +0.3]
"I’ll kill—"
PING!
[Demonic Path Value +0.3]
Lu Ze took a few steps, then turned and fired another arrow at Xu Huoyao.
By the fourth shot, Xu Huoyao snapped.
"AAAAAH!! I SWEAR I’LL FIND YOU AND—!!"
[Demonic Path Value +3]
"Oh?"
Lu Ze’s eyes gleamed.
The sudden tenfold increase in Demonic Path Value couldn’t mean Xu Huoyao had broken through in cultivation mid-game.
Even if he had, at most, he’d go from Nascent Soul to Spirit Transformation.
A value of 3 didn’t make sense—unless…
It had to be the system’s newly upgraded feature—
Tilt Mechanic.
"So breaking someone’s mental state is also a viable upgrade path…"
Lu Ze mused, then checked the time with a smirk.
"Ah, Old Man Li’s shop should’ve restocked by now…"
His actions sent chills down the spines of every other player in the game.
"Everyone, forget about martial ethics... This Bai Mu is practically a demon!"
"Tsk, I’ve roamed the world for decades and never seen someone so vicious..."
"Damn it! That demon’s coming for me again!!! Someone help!!"
"Let’s team up and kill Bai Mu!"
"Agreed!"
...
Meanwhile, Lu Ze was still in a frenzy of looting.
He went from one place to another, taking everything.
Gold ingots and iron ingots from the resource pools.
Diamonds from the outer islands, spirit stones from the central island.
He wanted it all!
Even if every remaining player on the field joined forces, they couldn’t stop him.
Zhong Yi, watching from the first-person perspective, was utterly stunned by the dazzling array of techniques.
Whether it was the use of blocks or items, Bai Mu’s skills were nothing short of divine.
Side-stepping past opponents or chasing them down with Ender Pearls were just the basics.
The most outrageous moment was when Zhong Yi saw Bai Mu throw three Ender Pearls in three different directions simultaneously, calculating their landing points perfectly. Using the time difference between the pearls, he killed his targets and returned to his original spot.
The spectacle was beyond absurd!
Other combat tricks—
Like using blocks to trap multiple enemies or dealing double damage with a fishing rod—
There was nothing Bai Mu couldn’t do, only things others couldn’t imagine!
His relentless offensive rhythm left the entire battlefield suffocating under his pressure.
Wave after wave of maneuvers left the live chat in awe.
[Is... this even human?]
[Did Bai Mu bring his real-world cultivation into the illusion realm?]
[Insane. Absolutely insane!]
[His reflexes are too fast.]
[Zhong Yi, have you learned anything yet?]
[I don’t get it—he could’ve won long ago. Why isn’t he destroying their beds?]
[He’s way too arrogant. Underestimating his enemies will be his downfall!]
[He might get wrecked by the random event soon!]
...
This question stumped Zhong Yi too.
No matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t figure out why Bai Mu refused to destroy beds and instead kept hunting down Li Jiujian and Xu Huoyao.
However, he didn’t agree with the chat’s prediction about the random event causing a disaster.
"Are you kidding? With Bai Mu’s skills, how could a random event possibly trip him up?"
He said this without realizing his squad voice was still on.
Lu Ze’s heart skipped a beat.
Right then, the random event finally triggered.
[Random Event: Divine Assistance (Rare)]
[For the next quarter-hour, mod functions will be temporarily unlocked. All surviving players may choose one skill mod to use.]
[During this event, all team beds will be destroyed!]
[Players who die cannot respawn!]
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
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."

In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
