"What's going on!? What kind of massive incident is this!?"
Zhang Yuxian's pupils violently contracted.
At this very moment, although the suddenly skyrocketing pillar of light behind Lu Ze was terrifying, it paled in comparison to the spiritual energy fluctuations erupting into the sky from all directions.
Such intense spiritual energy meant that more than one mighty figure was unleashing their full power at the exact same time!
"Has an ancient great demon awakened? Or perhaps an otherworldly heavenly fiend has descended upon this world... No! How could they happen simultaneously..."
Zhang Yuxian muttered to himself in disbelief.
Lu Ze, however, smiled faintly. "Elder Zhang, please stop cursing this great era of peace we live in... It is simply that the seniors have become far too mesmerized by this junior's illusion."
"Hah, ignorant child. How could a mere illusion possibly possess the merit to make mighty figures mobilize their spiritual energy?"
Zhang Yuxian retorted with a cold snort.
Lu Ze shook his head unhurriedly, narrowing his eyes as he looked at Zhang Yuxian. "Does Elder Zhang have any regrets in life?"
Zhang Yuxian countered, "Who doesn't have regrets?"
"Then if Elder Zhang were given an opportunity—where simply offering your spiritual energy to the heavens could resolve this regret—dare I ask, would Elder Zhang be willing?"
Zhang Yuxian was no fool; he instantly grasped the implication behind Lu Ze's words.
"Are you saying... they are doing this for what is inside the illusion? No! Impossible! That is absolutely impossible!"
Zhang Yuxian shook his head frantically, rejecting such a mad thought.
One must understand, why would a mighty expert at the Soul Formation or even Void Refinement realm so casually sacrifice such a terrifying amount of spiritual energy if not for some monumental benefit?
However, this denial was swiftly shattered by brutal reality—
A voice transmission from his sect made him realize that Lu Ze was speaking the absolute truth!
As he raised his head once more, he was shocked to discover...
The pillar of light behind Lu Ze had actually pierced through the very heavens!
It was more than ten times taller than that of the Green Mountain Sect, which had just been ranked first!
Most terrifying of all,
this pillar of light was still surging upward at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Zhang Yuxian knew the rules of the voting spell inside and out.
The higher one's cultivation base, the greater the weight of their vote!
Such a rapid rate of growth...
It meant there had to be at least a hundred experts at the Soul Formation—no, the Void Refinement realm!
A bizarre-looking spirit crane flew across the sky, screeching in a sharp, ear-piercing voice: "High noon has arrived!"
This signaled that the final illusion voting phase had come to an end.
"The victor is..."
"Lu Ze of the Lingxiao Sect!"
Hearing this result, Zhang Yuxian's face instantly turned a mix of green and pale white, looking exceedingly grim.
Lu Ze gave a slight nod and smiled faintly. "Elder Zhang... I humbly accept this victory."
"The reward for first place is a dharma treasure..."
Zhang Yuxian kept a straight face, about to go through the routine procedure, but was interrupted by Lu Ze.
"This junior has heard that if one chooses not to claim the dharma treasure, it is permissible to make a request of equivalent value instead?"
"What? What request do you have?"
Zhang Yuxian stroked his chin, mentally calculating the value of the dharma treasure.
"It is quite simple..."
Lu Ze stood up and said with a solemn expression:
"The demonic cultivator that Senior Brother Zhong brought back—spare his life."
Upon hearing these words, everyone present exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes filled with absolute disbelief.
This was a grand gathering of righteous cultivators, and its very theme was "Demon Slaughter."
Yet now, Lu Ze was actually demanding they spare a demonic cultivator's life?
It was nothing short of a blatant provocation against the righteous path!
Zhang Yuxian's expression darkened at first, but then a subtle sneer, imperceptible to the others, crept onto the corners of his lips.
He had just been fretting over finding a flaw to use against Lu Ze, yet he never expected the boy to willingly deliver himself right to his doorstep!
"Lu Ze, you dare speak on behalf of a mere demonic cultivator... Could it be that you wish to join the demonic path!?"
Behind Zhang Yuxian, the dharma avatar of a fierce Buddha materialized. Its eyes burned like hellfire, locking fiercely onto Lu Ze.
"Today, this demonic cultivator..."
"Must die!"

The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes.

ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
