The virtual realm.
The Cloud Top Empire.
The vast imperial hall was now filled with people.
These were the peak powers of the virtual realm.
Because the Cloud Top Empire was the true behemoth in the virtual realm, the other empires were just its vassal states.
As for the other sects in the virtual realm, they too had to pay tributes to the Cloud Top Empire every year.
And leading this group of peak masters was the Cloud Top King in his dragon robes.
Beside the Cloud Top King was a man in red robes with red hair, Destroyer of the World from the Chaos Hall.
With the changes in the preordained numbers, plus the deaths and departures of the original 234 people, the matter of the Immortal River Chaos Monument was naturally dropped.
So Destroyer of the World directly disbanded the few remaining people and came to the Cloud Top Empire.
However...
At this moment, Destroyer of the World who was plotting, and the esteemed Cloud Top King, were leading everyone in respectfully kneeling on the ground.
Above their heads in the air.
A whirlpool appeared.
Within the whirlpool, an indistinct face emerged.
"Greetings, Envoy."
At this moment.
Whether it was the Cloud Top King or Destroyer of the World, they spoke in respectful voices.
"Destroyer of the World, although there were unexpected changes with the Immortal River Chaos Monument this time, the Master does not blame you. For the time being, you just need to work with the Cloud Top King as I instruct, and plunder the fortune of the Immortal River Continent."
The deep voice came from above, making Destroyer of the World's whole body tremble.
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Envoy."
Destroyer of the World said gratefully with his face full of gratitude.
"Mm, Cloud Top, you heard what I said?" The face then looked towards the Cloud Top King.
"Your subordinate obeys and will cooperate well with Destroyer of the World to resolve the Master's worries and troubles!" The Cloud Top King said respectfully.
"Mm!"
The face let out a satisfied voice.
Amidst the black fog, a beam of light descended into the hall.
"This is the Fortune Immortal Pillar, representing the fortune my Master controls in the Immortal River Continent. Through the pillar you can observe at any time the fortune my Master controls in the Immortal River Continent."
Upon hearing this.
Destroyer of the World and the Cloud Top King looked over.
They suddenly saw that the one zhang tall Fortune Immortal Pillar already had two-thirds filled with chaotic color.
They understood in their hearts.
These two-thirds of controlled fortune were most likely due to the Cloud Top Empire.
After all, the Cloud Top Empire was the most powerful force across the entire Immortal River Continent, including the virtual realm. Together with the numerous vassal empires under its control and sects under its jurisdiction, occupying two-thirds of the continent's fortune was also reasonable.
"Also, this is the guide."
Another ray of light descended, and a heavenly book engraved with golden runes fell next to the two.
"You just need to do as instructed in the guide. Each time you accomplish something, you will be able to increase the fortune my Master controls in the Immortal River Continent."
"Remember."
"You must make the Fortune Immortal Pillar reach a state of perfection. The Immortal River Continent was after all once the land of immortals, on par with the immortal realm. The fortune of this plane is extremely important to the Master."
"There is one more thing I must remind you. Do not be too ostentatious, it's best to scheme in the shadows to avoid accruing too much karmic debt for the Master, especially killing karma. Avoid it if at all possible!"
"Control the fortune, and grasp well how to control it!"
The deep voice continued to instruct the two.
"We obey."
The Cloud Top King and Destroyer of the World nodded.
They also understood the importance of karma.
Furthermore, fortune was extremely profound, not something that could be achieved through brute force.
If brute force was the way, then mobilizing the Cloud Top Empire to annihilate the entire Immortal River Continent would have placed the entire continent's fortune under their control.
But doing so would have bound them with endless karmic debt.
On the contrary, the costs would have outweighed the benefits.
"Destroyer of the World, it seems you have something you want to say?" At this time, the face turned to look at Destroyer of the World and asked.
"Envoy, I suspect someone is sabotaging things from behind, especially with the Immortal River Chaos Monument last time, so I wonder if we should..."
Destroyer of the World cautiously asked.
"The matter of the Immortal River Chaos Monument is in the past, so you don't need to dwell on it too much. As for the Master's matters, I'm afraid there are few who would dare interfere."
"At worst, even if there is someone, they would just be small fries not worth noting. Don't worry about it."
The voice slowly spoke from the black hole: "What you need to do is properly fulfill what I just instructed."
"Yes!"
Destroyer of the World respectfully nodded.
His heart was also completely at ease.
Thinking back, it made sense.
Even if someone in the Immortal River Continent was making trouble, it was nothing major. After all, could they compare to the Master?
The two were not on the same level at all.
For now, just do as the Envoy instructed and accomplish what was commanded.
After the Envoy left, only then did the Cloud Top King and Destroyer of the World stand up and exchange a look with each other.
"According to the Envoy's instructions, the first thing we must do is release a Yellow Sky Behemoth that was sealed in the Immortal River Continent several eras ago."
"This beast had once received guidance from the Master, so by releasing it, it will surely serve the Master."
"Furthermore, if it can recover after being unsealed, its might could match you and me. Accomplishing this will greatly increase the Fortune Immortal Pillar." Destroyer of the World said.
"While that may be so, it will not be easy."
The Cloud Top King frowned and said, "This beast was sealed by someone else. If we release it we will incur karmic debt, and since we represent the Master, wouldn't that stain the Master with karmic debt?"
"Therefore we must plan for someone completely unrelated to us to release this beast."
"This is indeed a difficult problem."
Destroyer of the World's brows also furrowed as he nodded, "Furthermore, ancient seals cannot be undone by ordinary people, so choosing the right person, as well as how to undo the seal, are both huge problems."
Still.
Troublesome as it may be, the entire Cloud Top Empire was under their control after all.
Wanting to covertly arrange all this was not impossible!
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives.

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
