Luofeng Continent, Phantom Alliance Base.
At this moment, the Phantom Alliance was like a castle in the air, teetering on the verge of collapse.
The first batch of people who attempted to create illusion domains were mostly members of the Phantom Alliance.
Naturally, they also suffered the most punishments.
From minor afflictions like needing to use the restroom every half quarter of an hour, to major disasters like their cultivation base dropping by an entire realm...
There was nothing the Heavenly Dao's Remnant Spirit wouldn't do, only things the cultivators couldn't even dare to imagine.
What was supposed to be a day of celebration instantly turned into a day of heavenly wrath, leaving everyone inside the Phantom Alliance fearing for their lives.
Looking at the crowd of members surrounding him, eager to hand in their resignations, the alliance leader, Heart Demon, remained remarkably calm.
"Everyone, calm down. Do not throw yourselves into a panic... Our bond with the Heavenly Dao has only just begun."
Heart Demon took a sip of tea, his tone exceedingly steady.
These words instantly ignited the emotions of the others.
"Calm down? You saw what happened to Falcon yesterday! How do you expect us to stay calm!?"
"That was a full hundred years of cultivation! Gone, just like that!"
"Thirty people in the Phantom Alliance created illusion domains, and twenty-two of them were punished... Are you asking me to be the twenty-third!?"
"This bond... I'd rather not have it!"
...
Watching the crowd's righteous indignation, the eyes behind the four-faced mask suddenly turned ice-cold.
"Quiet."
The moment Heart Demon set down his teacup, a chilling, murderous aura erupted, instantly shocking everyone present into widening their eyes.
Body Integration Realm!
Everyone knew that as the organizer of the Phantom Alliance, Heart Demon's strength had to be extraordinary.
But no one knew that he was actually a Body Integration Realm expert, a rarity in this world.
In an instant, the previously restless crowd fell dead silent.
After all, if an illusion domain displeased the Heavenly Dao, the worst that could happen was losing some cultivation.
But if they angered a Body Integration Realm big shot, they would truly be meeting their maker and waiting for their next life.
Heart Demon retracted his aura, stood up, and turned his back to the crowd. From his storage ring, he took out a colorful spiritual mushroom.
"This is the Phantom-Reality Heavenly Lingzhi..."
The others did not pay much attention to the first half of Heart Demon's sentence.
The Phantom-Reality Heavenly Lingzhi was indeed a rare natural treasure, highly beneficial for cultivators breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm.
However, within the Phantom Alliance, especially those who could appear in this base, almost all were already Void Refinement Realm experts. Thus, they didn't view this treasure through rose-tinted glasses.
But the second half of Heart Demon's sentence left everyone utterly shocked.
"It was gifted by the Heavenly Dao."
Heart Demon twirled the Phantom-Reality Heavenly Lingzhi between his fingers.
"The rewards and punishments of the Heavenly Dao are not empty words..."
With that said, he slowly displayed the illusion domains created by the Phantom Alliance according to their reward and punishment status, and began to analyze the underlying reasons for the others.
The crowd, who had wanted to quit just moments before, were all deeply moved by Heart Demon's analysis.
"So you're saying we can't plagiarize that kid's illusion domain?"
"Strictly speaking, I'm afraid any illusion domain that is fundamentally similar will be punished."
"Then we can't continue imitating Lu Ze's illusion domain now?"
"No, we just won't plagiarize."
Heart Demon slowly shook his head.
"What we need to do is figure out the core operation of its rules... and then make it our own."
"Let's start with Naraka: Bladepoint."
...
...
Lu Ze's illusion world.
Ever since he learned about the rewards and punishments of the first batch of illusion domains from the Heavenly Dao's Remnant Spirit yesterday, Lu Ze stopped slacking off.
After creating an illusion domain, not only would the system give rewards, but the Heavenly Dao would as well.
The originally leisurely illusion domain project had its foundations instantly laid over the course of a single night.
Several patches of wasteland space were divided and organized by Lu Ze, and the prototype of the map was faintly established.
Just then, the long-absent voice of the system rang in Lu Ze's ears.

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."

Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1.

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. 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.”
