Ling Yi transmigrated into Bai Qingyun, the dying patriarch from a world where marriage and children powered a system, and forcibly upgraded that system so adopted children could count.

After the candidates were chosen, he took them to the Bai Clan to adopt them and earn cultivation-time rewards from the Many Children, Many Blessings System.

Over ten years, Bai Qingyun’s adoption gatherings, Yao Yue’s Heaven Tier method auctions, and Bai Luo’s Axe Gang robberies transformed Luo City and stirred the Immortal Cultivation Realm. Ling Yi reunited with Bai Luo, who warned that Immortal Realm forces might soon come after the God Ling Method, but both remained unconcerned.

Ten years after Little Hei and the Axe Gang left for the Immortal Realm, Ling Yi investigated why no one could advance beyond the tenth level of the God Ling Method and learned it was restricted by the Chains of the Great Dao of Karma.

• Duoduo and Wansheng warned that a great terror was about to descend, and Ling Yi saw a blue-dressed woman emerge from a spatial rift.

Ling Yi escaped the terrifying blue-clad woman by severing his Karma and returned to the real world with Little Hei, Yao Yue, and Yu Shuang. After discussing how the woman might still pursue him in other worlds, Ling Yi planned to grow stronger, while Little Hei set off on his own world-traveling trip and immediately died.

• Ling Yi used the rudiments of a law to sever Karma with the blue-clad woman, then escaped with Little Hei; she resolved to gather protagonists and try another approach.

• Little Hei crushed a World-Traversal Card, vanished, and reappeared three seconds later, depressed because he had died as soon as he crossed over.

Ling Yi returned home to find Yao Yue and Yu Shuang testing him in maid outfits, then let them explore the real world while warning them not to cause trouble. Zhou Siyao decided to approach the two women to assess their strength, and Zhou Yunyao insisted on joining because she was jealous of their relationship with Ling Yi.

Ling Yi traversed with four women to a cultivation world, where he became Wang Yue, head of the Wang Family, and acquired the Kind Father Favorability System. He arrived during Liu Ruyan’s attempt to break off her engagement to Wang Teng, who declared that he could end it but the Wang Family would not.

• Liu Ruyan asked Wang Teng to sign the agreement dissolving their engagement, but he pointed out that the contract bound their families and could not be destroyed without Heavenly Dao punishment.
