The First Negative Review in History! Fuxi's Metaverse, Get One-Starred Out!
That scream didn't actually come from the throat.
It was a wailing of Divine Soul that was forcibly torn out from the dazzling light curtain of the "Reincarnation Metaverse"!
Immediately afterwards, a phantom tiger shadow was "vomited" out of the light screen by a brute force.
That posture was extremely distorted and utterly pathetic.
He is none other than Hu Dali, the first "Chief Experience Officer" of the Underworld.
"Bang!"
Hu Dali's soul slammed into the ground paved with Nine Nether Divine Iron, the muffled sound making the teeth of everyone present ache.
He lay on his back with his four paws in the air, convulsing violently.
White foam, formed from his very soul, gushed wildly from the corner of his tiger lips.
The once solid soul was now as thin as a piece of paper that could float away at any moment, its light flickering uncertainly.
The once bustling construction site of the underworld was eerily silent.
Within the newly formed "U-shaped slide" in the claw of the Ancestral Dragon, the River of Forgetfulness defied all laws, hovering in mid-air and solidifying into an amber-colored ribbon of water.
Yuanfeng's delicate hand, which was about to adorn the Bridge of Helplessness with a Southern Bright Leaving Fire Diamond, froze in mid-air, the flames at her fingertips losing their warmth.
Even in "Reincarnation KTV," the group of Lotus Boy who were swaying wildly to the divine song were all frozen in place, maintaining a comical pose with one leg raised.
There has been an accident.
Moreover, it originated from Fuxi's supposedly perfect and logically closed "Metaverse"!
"Fuxi! What have you done to my client?!"
A dragon's roar resounded! The Ancestral Dragon the first to break the silence, its massive head suddenly turning towards Fuxi, the fury in its golden eyes almost materializing as it surged forth.
This Hu Dali is his only hope for turning the tide in his "offline physical store alliance"!
If he messes this up, how will he compete with Fuxi in the business world?!
Fuxi was also dumbfounded.
For the first time, the confident smile on his face didn't fade; instead, it froze and shattered.
Impossible.
His "Reincarnation Metaverse" is based on the River Diagram and Luo Script and constructed according to the laws of destiny. How could it possibly go wrong?
"Fellow Daoist Dali, what... exactly happened to you inside?"
The Ancestor Hong Yun was the first to rush forward, his body radiating a gentle aura of clouds, attempting to stabilize the tiger demon, whose spirit had clearly collapsed.
Hu Dali trembled and struggled to turn over.
His fierce tiger-like eyes were now brimming with tears.
That was neither pain nor fear.
It is a greater humiliation than being utterly destroyed!
With his last ounce of strength, he raised his illusory tiger claw, trembling as he pointed it towards the still-radiant light screen, and issued his first and last user complaint, destined to be recorded in the annals of Primordial World history.
His voice no longer carried the fierce roar of a tiger through the mountains; it was now only a choked sob after his dignity had been crushed.
"He... they... they forced me... to become a bird!"
"When... bird?"
All the big shots doubted their ears.
"Yes!"
Hu Dali seemed to have found an outlet for his pent-up frustration, and all his pent-up grievances exploded, causing him to burst into tears on the spot.
The cries were deafening, heartbreaking to those who heard them, and... someone who witnessed them wanted to laugh.
"I am Hu Dali!"
"The Overlord of Northern Continent of Ju Lu!"
"My greatest love in life is tearing tigers and leopards apart alive, and swallowing cattle and sheep whole!"
"But as soon as I went in, they said I was a beginner and had to start from the very basics!"
"Then!"
"And then they turned me into a... fluffy, round little titmouse with soft claws!"
Hu Dali cried his heart out.
"They forced me to peck at insects and eat them!"
"That worm was sticky and slippery, and it even wriggled!"
"I won't eat it. That thing called 'System' keeps going on and on in my head!"
"They're saying you can't unlock the next stage without completing the 'newbie quests'!"
"I am a mighty carnivorous tiger, and you want me to eat insects?!"
"Besides!"
"They even made me imitate bird calls! If I couldn't, they wouldn't feed me!"
"I practiced for ages until my voice was hoarse, and then a sparrow spirit next door rewarded me with an 'Experience Pill' just because it sang better than me!"
"Is this fair?!"
"Is this reasonable?!"
"What's most hateful is!"
"The village chief of the Novice Village is an old hen!"
"She makes me incubate eggs for her every day!"
"I'm fucking male!"
"It's a tiger!"
"You want me to hatch eggs?!"
As Hu Dali, he became more and more agitated. His immense grief and indignation caused his already thin soul to flicker violently, almost transparently.
"I can't stand this injustice! I just want to run away!"
"Then a giant eagle's spirit flew down from the sky, saying I had violated the 'Novice Village rules,' and swatted me out with one swipe of its talons!"
"Waaaaah... I'm not playing anymore! I'll never play again in this lifetime! I want to go home! I want to be reincarnated!"
"Even if I'm reborn as an worm, it's better than being a bird here!"
A tearful accusation echoed endlessly in the deathly silent underworld.
The entire venue remained deathly silent.
A chilling embarrassment, more biting than the cold winds of the netherworld, enveloped the Sage's Heart of every powerful figure.
"Puff--"
I don't know who was the first to break the spell.
That soft laugh was like toppling the first domino.
The next moment, deafening laughter erupted one after another, soaring into the Yunxiao and nearly lifting the dome of the underworld!
"Hahaha! A bird! And an incubator! Fuxi, you are truly a genius of unparalleled talent!"
The Tongtian Jiaozhu laughed so hard he could barely hold the Qingping Sword, pointing at Fuxi, unable to straighten up for a long time.
Zhurong and Gonggong laughed so hard they pounded their chests and stamped their feet; the muffled thuds of their muscles colliding were even more exciting than rolling thunder.
"Old Fu! You're amazing! This is way more exciting than the shamanistic Great God of our Zhurong Tribe!"
Even the Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but twitch his tightly clenched lips violently. He quickly turned his head away, but his shoulders were shaking uncontrollably.
Fuxi's face turned completely black.
It was a blackness deeper than Chaos, purer than the deepest hell.
His Sage's Heart is now riddled with holes.
He finally realized that his seemingly grand, free, and all-encompassing "Metaverse" contained a fatal and foolish logical flaw.
He pursues the joy of growth for all souls, starting from scratch and embracing equality among all things—a grand narrative belonging to Sage, overlooking all beings.
But they overlooked the most fundamental point.
--Users' personalized needs!
You're letting a fierce tiger experience the leisurely comfort of a "farming" lifestyle.
That's not an experience.
That's torture!
"I... I..."
Fuxi opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but found that every word was stuck in his throat, turning into endless bitterness.
He looked at the tiger demon who was still rolling on the ground and howling, and then at his fellow cultivators who were laughing so hard they were about to pass out.
He knew.
Fuxi, the "Painting Sage," has suffered the greatest defeat since the World Creation time.
Lin Shen, looking at this chaotic scene, was once again filled with big question marks in his little head.
He ran to Fuxi's side and gently tugged at his clothes.
He raised his head and, in an incredibly pure and innocent tone, asked a question that struck right to the soul.
"Uncle Fuxi, why don't you let the tiger play the games that tigers are supposed to play?"
