Second Season Begins, Faction Selection

Cooperate?

Choose the Evil Path?

Yi Xiaofeng raised his brows and did not agree right away.

Qin Qinxue continued, "The show has already aired. The contestants in the next season know which factions we chose last time. I was already on the Evil Path, and you abandoned the Righteous Path for the Demonic Path. I came in first, and you're the most popular contestant. We'll definitely be targeted. Why don't we join forces? We'll still choose the Evil Path and use the same trick again, leaving them unable to tell what's real and what's fake."

Yi Xiaofeng walked over to the sofa and sat down. He lay back and adjusted into a comfortable position.

Looking at Qin Qinxue, Yi Xiaofeng asked with a teasing smile, "What do I get from working with you? Although you came in first, you should know perfectly well that you didn't really win. Neither of us was in this for money."

Qin Qinxue frowned.

She wanted to argue, but that was the truth.

She had sought Yi Xiaofeng out because she wanted to ride his luck and obtain secret manuals.

Other than Yi Xiaofeng, the most any of the other contestants had obtained was the Blood Fiend Palm Manual. Yang Yu had gotten it, but compared to the Pure Yang Five Swords Technique and the Nine Nether Prajna Skill, it was hardly worth mentioning.

"You should go back first. I'll think it over and tell you what I decide the night before filming," Yi Xiaofeng said with a wave of his hand.

Qin Qinxue nodded.

She turned to leave, but stopped at the door and looked back at Yi Xiaofeng. Meaningfully, she said, "Those secret manuals of yours could become hidden threats as well. Someone will definitely make a big issue out of them. It's always good to have a helper."

With that, Qin Qinxue pulled open the door and left.

Yi Xiaofeng frowned.

The Nine Nether Prajna Skill was a Demonic Divine Art, and he was Su Xin Palace's future son-in-law. Once word spread through the Cultivation World, it would surely draw enemies beyond the current scenario.

Looks like I really need to plan carefully for the next game.

Yi Xiaofeng's gaze flickered.

Afterward, he had the hotel send up food. Once he had eaten and drunk his fill, he continued cultivating the Nine Nether Prajna Skill.

Over the following days, the Show Team kept hyping up the second season.

Although the Heavenly Dao Immortal Hero Game had been promoted for a long time, most people had assumed it was all hype. Only after the first season aired did it truly shock the world.

The premiere broadcasts in other countries had also caused an enormous stir, and their second seasons were all in preparation.

However, the Eastern Region was the first to begin livestreaming, and it also had the largest population. Therefore, the Heavenly Dao Immortal Hero Game in the Eastern Region was the most popular.

It was worth mentioning that Yi Xiaofeng was not the most popular contestant in the world.

Though his fame had begun spreading overseas, a Global Superstar had also joined the Heavenly Dao Immortal Hero Game livestream, so his popularity was naturally explosive.

This Global Superstar was a universally recognized Action Superstar who had even played a household-name superhero.

The guy had continued playing up his superhero persona in the game. His brainless fans loved him even more, while casual viewers found him pretentious. No matter what, his popularity far surpassed that of the other contestants.

As the Heavenly Dao Immortal Hero Game grew more and more popular, elites from all walks of life signed up one after another.

Experts predicted that the farther the show went, the higher the contestants' overall quality would become.

By the final season, it would surely be a clash of titans.

There had still been quite a few ordinary people in the first season, and they had been eliminated quickly. In terms of the show's overall effect, its novelty outweighed its excitement.

The days passed one by one.

The night before filming.

Yi Xiaofeng had barely cultivated a trace of Nine Nether Spiritual Energy.

Qin Qinxue came to see him again.

Yi Xiaofeng agreed to cooperate.

"You didn't recruit anyone else, did you?" Yi Xiaofeng asked with narrowed eyes.

Qin Qinxue shook her head. "If we recruited everyone, it would lose all meaning. You wouldn't have done that either, right? Even though the director told us all to join forces, that's impossible. Seven people working together? Just thinking about it is absurd."

Everyone had their own schemes, and it was impossible for all seven people to receive the same mission.

Yi Xiaofeng smiled and nodded.

After making their agreement, Qin Qinxue left.

For Yi Xiaofeng and the other six contestants, this was destined to be a sleepless night.

Some were nervous, while others were excited.

Early the next morning.

Filming began.

Led by the staff, Yi Xiaofeng and the other six contestants entered first.

This time, they were not blindfolded, because the newcomers had not entered yet.

The number of spectators in the stadium had surpassed one hundred thousand, and online video streaming sites were ready as well. They began broadcasting footage of the contestants entering the venue.

"Yi Xiaofeng! Yi Xiaofeng!"

"Xiaofeng, fly with your heart! Yanran will follow you forever!"

"Go, Brother Yi! Kill them all!"

"Brother Yi, have you mastered your Demonic Art yet?"

"Yi Xiaofeng! Start acting!"

"Go, Qin Qinxue!"

Deafening cheers erupted. Yi Xiaofeng's supporters stood out from the rest; even all the other contestants' cheers combined could not compare to his.

Yang Yu, Zeng Shu, and the others looked at him enviously.

Qin Qinxue, on the other hand, remained very calm.

Hearing the audience mention Wang Yanran and even chant fan slogans, Yi Xiaofeng was so embarrassed that he did not dare raise his head.

These girls are way too obsessed!

Thinking that, Yi Xiaofeng sat inside the Game Pod.

He exchanged a glance with Qin Qinxue, and the Game Pod's door closed.

The clamor around him instantly vanished.

Darkness filled Yi Xiaofeng's vision, and he could no longer hear anything.

He waited patiently.

I wonder how many contestants there will be this time.

The production team had not revealed how many contestants would participate in the second season.

Yi Xiaofeng had looked it up online, and it was also a major topic of discussion.

The more contestants there were, the more disadvantageous it would be for those who had participated in the first season.

After all, the newcomers already knew about them.

If Yi Xiaofeng were a newcomer, he would also be especially wary of the contestants who had performed outstandingly in the first season.

About forty minutes passed.

Boom!

Yi Xiaofeng suddenly felt weightless. The darkness before his eyes shattered, and blue skies and white clouds rushed into view.

He began falling again.

Having experienced it once before, Yi Xiaofeng was not surprised this time and remained very calm.

At the same time, his online livestream room gradually opened.

"Brother Yi, I'm here!"

"Crush the newcomers, Brother Yi!"

"Miss Yanran, your husband is here."

"Hahaha, it's finally starting! This week of waiting was torture!"

"Looking forward to Brother Yi's performance this time."

"What performance? This is a game of life!"

Barrages had already begun flooding the livestream rooms. Among all the contestants, Yi Xiaofeng's viewer count was far ahead, swiftly leaving everyone else behind.

An aged voice rang out beside Yi Xiaofeng's ear, while lines of text appeared before his eyes:

"Legend says that heaven and earth were created by immortal gods. When all things were first born, Ferocious Beasts roamed unchecked. Because humanity was weak, they became food in the bellies of countless beasts. Unable to bear it, the immortal gods descended and spread cultivation methods. Mortals refined qi, reached Bigu, and formed cores, allowing them to contend against Ferocious Beasts and demonic beasts. Those who cultivated to great mastery could Ascend to Immortality!"

"You, Yi Xiaofeng, also known as Zhang Junyi, have already undergone trials in the mortal world. You have the following choices."

"1. The Evil Path: Live for yourself. You have a greater chance of suffering qi deviation. In this scenario, Evil Path Cultivators may participate in murder."

"2. The Righteous Path: Uphold chivalry. You will have profound opportunities, and the Heavenly Dao will favor you. In this scenario, Righteous Path cultivators will receive support."

"3. The Demonic Path: Stop at nothing to achieve your goals. You have higher talent, but the Heavenly Dao will not tolerate you. In this scenario, Demonic Path Cultivators will inevitably participate in murder."

"Because of your relationship with Wang Yanran of Su Xin Palace, you have already gained a small demonic reputation in the Cultivation World. Please choose your faction identity carefully."

It had begun. If it were you, which faction would you choose? (Remember to vote with recommendation tickets~~)
