Lu Ze, who had been watching everything from stealth in the livestream, raised an eyebrow slightly.
“Senior Brother Zhong is such an Old Six… How does he always manage to find these unorthodox cultivator spots?”
This trick of clipping through an invisible wall was less a bug than a game mechanic.
After all, finding a bug like this—and managing to jump up there—was no easy feat.
The fact that someone as hopelessly clumsy as Zhong Yi had actually made it up came as a huge surprise to Lu Ze.
All he could say was that Zhong Yi had really gone all out in his research into unorthodox cultivator tactics…
…
After expending every ounce of effort, Zhong Yi finally jumped back onto the rooftop.
This time, he was nowhere near as composed as before. He hurried toward the Fire Bull’s combat area, afraid that the beast would disappear if he took too long.
“Phew… phew… Thank goodness!”
Zhong Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead. Seeing the Fire Bull wandering around the courtyard after losing aggro, he let out a sigh of relief.
“Now, Old Zhou, watch closely!”
With that, he swaggered over to the gap where the tower had originally stood and waited quietly.
As the Fire Bull drew closer, a red dot appeared over its heart.
[Unbreakable: Holy crap! I get it now… You’re going to stealth deathblow it? That’s devious!]
“Hahaha! Old Zhou, you’re pretty clever after all!”
Zhong Yi burst out laughing.
Every enemy—even bosses—had a stealth deathblow mechanic.
In other words, if the enemy had not spotted the player, the player could launch a hidden attack and take away one of the enemy’s health bars.
Only now did everyone realize that Zhong Yi’s plan was to lure out the Fire Bull, then shake off its aggro and create an opportunity for a stealth deathblow!
This was a killing method no one had ever thought of before.
After all, the Fire Bull was different from other bosses. The moment anyone entered through the main gate, it would inevitably aggro, leaving no opportunity for a stealth deathblow.
Zhong Yi’s line of thinking was simply brilliant!
Before Zhong Yi could make his move, a special gift effect featuring Myriad Swords Return appeared in the livestream.
[Unbreakable sent Myriad Swords Return in the livestream with the message: A bet is a bet. This one’s for my good boy!]
Seeing the gift effect Zhou Yue had sent, Zhong Yi immediately beamed.
“Oh? You’re quite a man of your word… But…”
Zhong Yi gave a mysterious smile and wagged his finger.
Even when the Fire Bull passed right in front of him with the red stealth-deathblow mark above its head, he did not rush to strike.
“A stealth deathblow alone won’t be enough to achieve a no-hit kill… After all, everyone knows I can’t beat this thing.”
Zhong Yi made no attempt to hide the fact that he was hopelessly clumsy.
A stealth deathblow could only take away one health bar, while elite monsters usually had two lives.
In other words, Zhong Yi still had to deal with one health bar himself.
For Zhong Yi, even half a health bar was a matter of life and death, let alone trying to pull off a flawless kill.
“So… We can’t rely on the stealth deathblow alone. We’ll need this too.”
With that, he switched his Shinobi Prosthetic to firecrackers.
Even Lu Ze, who had seen all kinds of things, widened his eyes in shock at the sight.
Others might not have known what Zhong Yi was planning, but Lu Ze understood perfectly what he was about to do.
Just then, another Myriad Swords Return gift effect appeared in Zhong Yi’s livestream.
“Huh? Junior Brother Lu sent me a Myriad Swords Return? Hahaha… Looks like Junior Brother Lu approves too!”
Zhong Yi laughed loudly and waited for his opportunity.
The instant the Fire Bull passed by the wall, he leaped down with the firecrackers in his arms and set them off in midair.
A deafening series of pops and bangs erupted. The Fire Bull reared up in terror, looking like a startled animal.
A moment later, it bolted wildly forward and slammed headfirst into the wall, actually killing itself on impact.
The livestream chat exploded.
[Holy crap?? You can do that?!]
[It killed itself by running into the wall??]
[I get it now! Back when he fought Gyoubu Oniwa, the firecrackers scared the horse… So the same principle applies to the Fire Bull!]
[How is Zhong’s brain even wired? He actually thought of this?!]
[I’m starting to think Zhong is the second-biggest unorthodox cultivator in the Firmament Sect…]
[Then who’s the first?]
[Shh… He’s watching the livestream too. We must not speak of it…]
…
…
At that moment, Lu Ze was still watching the scene in the livestream, his eyes filled with shock.
Thinking of using a bug to get onto the roof and shaking off aggro for a stealth deathblow was already an astonishing level of ingenuity.
But Lu Ze had never imagined that Zhong Yi could even discover the hidden mechanic of scaring the Fire Bull to death with firecrackers. That was simply absurd.
“Could it be that Senior Brother Zhong actually attained enlightenment in the illusion by relying on these unorthodox cultivator tactics…?”
Lu Ze had only gotten halfway through the sentence when he suddenly covered his mouth.
“Bah, bah, bah! It’s fine. I stopped cultivating the Great Dao True Words Art ages ago. Hahaha…”

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on...

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.
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.
