Chapter Summaries

Ling Yi spent his new Transmigration Points planning a Virtual Viewing Space and decided to randomize the transmigrators’ cheats after their extraordinary feats seemed too fake to viewers. Back in the real world, Chichi learned the new viewing rules and accepted Wang Lei’s invitation to meet with Leng Feng and Hong Lang’s group.

• Ling Yi learned that a Virtual Viewing Space could keep livestreams synchronized while limiting real-world time, and he planned a weekly nine-hour schedule with permanent viewer slots.
• Ling Yi discovered that viewers’ doubts about Chichi and the others’ overpowering cheats had reduced his points, so he decided to randomize future cheats.
• Chichi returned to the real world and saw that his transmigration strength and skills had not carried over, while his system interface showed 35,000 Transmigration Points and a new exchange list.
• Zhu Meier read the platform’s updates: transmigration would happen every seven days, and the next viewing space would admit 1.2 million people on a first-come, first-served basis.
• Wang Lei invited Chichi to meet Leng Feng and Hong Lang’s group in Yan City, and Chichi agreed while Zhu Meier and Young Master Xiao Wang stayed behind.

Ling Yi prepared the second official transmigration, shut down voting, and chose a technological direction for the next world while closing audience-to-transmigrator hints. The new slots opened with Chen Chichi and Bai Mengyan among the transmigrators, and Bai Mengyan noticed that her golden finger had changed.

• Ling Yi learned that betting companies, foreign forces, and influencers were stirring up the world vote, then decided to give the Ancient Country an advantage through a technological transmigration world.
• Ling Yi ordered JL to shut down voting and asked the system to disable bullet-comment interaction between livestream viewers and simulated transmigrators.
• The second official transmigration began with separate prompts for transmigrator slots and access to the virtual viewing space, which was limited to 1.2 million viewers.
• Chen Chichi secured a transmigrator slot again and found Bai Mengyan beside him in a desolate setting.
• Bai Mengyan opened the system interface and noticed that her golden finger had changed.

Chichi and Bai Mengyan entered the Transcendence world, where Chichi used his Sign-In System and brought them to the Town of West by persuading Evelyn to give them a ride. They arrived in the secluded town where Will was developing consciousness-upload technology, and Chichi prepared to sign in again.

• Chichi reviewed his system interface, which showed a quest to help Dr. Will Caster and an exchange list of skills and technology.
• Bai Mengyan used her Sign-In System to obtain a handgun, accidentally fired it near Chichi, and let him take charge.
• Chichi signed in for a stack of banknotes, then realized he could only sign in again after reaching a new plot point.
• Chichi blocked Evelyn's car and persuaded her to drive him and Bai Mengyan to the Town of West.
• After Evelyn drove away, Chichi and Bai Mengyan discussed Will's technology and the nearly deserted town, and Chichi told her to sign in.

Chichi and Bai Mengyan used their points to gain nano-modification abilities, while Chichi planned to watch Will and Bai Mengyan to monitor the RIFT Organization. In Los Angeles, Wang Lei and Sun Yanwang waited outside a company building to target RIFT members as Wang Lei reflected on the transmigration program’s similarities to a variety show.

• Bai Mengyan received a nano-modification opportunity from her check-in and transformed her arm into a blade, demonstrating her new abilities.
• Bai Mengyan explained that a movie world could diverge from its film plot, including how a transmigrator had witnessed Marcus die in Elysium.
• Chichi spent eight thousand points on nano-modification, gained the ability to imitate Bai Mengyan, and planned for them to monitor Will and the RIFT Organization.
• Wang Lei and Sun Yanwang waited outside Laifei Intelligent Program Development Company, where Wang Lei had received combat power points and Yanwang had received grenades.
• Wang Lei stopped Yanwang from attacking the building and considered presenting transmigration as a virtual-world experience while keeping real-world information secret.

Wang Lei and Yanwang waited for a chance to question a RIFT member, hoping to protect Will and learn more about the organization. They captured Hall Laffey and uncovered clues about Bree and Will, but Yanwang killed Laffey afterward, prompting Wang Lei to explain that they should have used the threat to draw the RIFT members to them.

• Wang Lei told Yanwang that Will's survival could be essential to the main quest, but they delayed going after him because they lacked a way to travel safely.
• Wang Lei and Yanwang avoided the building's security guards and waited near the parking garage for a RIFT member to emerge alone.
• Wang Lei and Yanwang forced Hall Laffey to drive while Wang Lei questioned him about his identity, Bree, and the RIFT Organization.
• Hall Laffey revealed that Bree had contacted him that morning and had ordered Will killed half a month earlier, while Wang Lei inferred that Will had recently reached the Town of West.
• After Hall Laffey threatened them on returning to the garage, Yanwang shot him, and Wang Lei rebuked him for killing a potential means of drawing the RIFT members to them.

Wang Lei and Yanwang fled Los Angeles after killing Laffey, then Bree called and confronted them about the mysterious Reincarnation Organization. A hidden mission tasked Wang Lei with convincing Bree to abandon her beliefs, and as he argued that intelligent life had no reason to destroy humanity, Yanwang suddenly brought up fear.

• Wang Lei and Yanwang dragged Laffey's corpse from the car and left the city to avoid drawing official attention.
• Wang Lei spent fewer than two thousand points on weapons, ammunition, and a single-use Nanomedical Factor Cluster before preparing an ambush in the woods outside Los Angeles.
• Bree called Laffey's phone and accused Wang Lei of belonging to the Reincarnation Organization, which she had blamed for attacks on RIFT.
• Wang Lei checked the mission interface and saw that RIFT's numbers had fallen sharply, then challenged Bree's claim that intelligent life would destroy humanity.
• A hidden mission appeared, tasking Wang Lei with convincing Bree to abandon her beliefs in exchange for a treasure chest he could bring into the real world.
• Wang Lei argued that intelligent life depended on electricity and had no need to compete with humans, but Yanwang abruptly said, "Fear!"

Wang Lei and Yanwang argued Bree into hanging up, completing the hidden quest to persuade her and earning a bronze treasure chest. Bree still sent a large group after them, while Chichi and Bai Mengyan received a quest to rescue Will.

• Wang Lei argued that intelligent life could advance humanity, but Bree distinguished intelligent life from intelligent programs and refused to change her position.
• Yanwang used deliberately unreasonable arguments about probability and scientists who might create intelligent life until Bree hung up.
• Wang Lei received confirmation that he had completed the hidden quest and would earn a bronze treasure chest when the story world ended; the system warned that death would erase all rewards.
• Wang Lei and Yanwang prepared for Bree's forces, but Yanwang opened fire as a cluster of quest markers approached in a convoy, causing multiple crashes and extinguishing several markers.
• Chichi and Bai Mengyan received a hidden quest to rescue Will, whose life was in danger.

Chichi and Bai Mengyan competed for a hidden mission to save Will, then planned to meet him and use nanofactors to treat him without derailing the plot. In the viewing space, Ling Yi decided to join the next transmigration himself and let anyone compete for the remaining slots.

• Chichi and Bai Mengyan reasoned that Will's hidden mission could reward only one of them, so they settled the dispute with rock-paper-scissors, and Bai Mengyan won.
• Bai Mengyan and Chichi planned to encounter Will the next morning and treat him only partway with nanofactors, explaining their abilities through kung fu and traditional Chinese medicine.
• Ling Yi considered adding factions and wondered why the transmigrators included so many celebrities, while the system denied influencing the selection.
• Ling Yi decided to transmigrate into the next simulated world himself and leave the other nine slots open to anyone.

Ling Yi used nanofactors to demonstrate his new abilities while the others prepared to defend Will and the Town of West from Bree’s remaining RIFT forces. As the convoy approached under attack, Yanwang readied his Gatling gun, and the chapter ended before the battle began.

• Ling Yi spent ten million Transmigration Points on one million nanofactors and a quantum processor chip, then used them to transform his body and create fire, water, and a laser.
• Wang Lei, Yanwang, Hong Lang, and the others advanced their quests as Bree led the surviving RIFT members toward the Town of West.
• Chichi and Bai Mengyan guarded Will’s laboratory while Will began uploading his consciousness, and they stopped Dr. Joseph Tagger and Agent Buchanan from entering.
• Wang Lei and Yanwang arrived, learned Will was uploading his consciousness, and prepared to defend the town as Bree’s forces approached.
• Bree’s convoy came under attack from pursuers, and Yanwang spun up his Gatling gun, eager to join the fight.

After returning to Red City to reunite with his family, Ling Yi opened a simulated transmigration into New Lady White Snake with a hundredfold cultivation system and joined it himself. He and the other transmigrators arrived in a peach grove, where Ni Xueqin introduced herself while Bai Mengyan laughed uncontrollably.

• Ling Yi argued with the system about choosing transmigrators from other countries, then flew to Red City using nanofactor camouflage and antigravity technology.
• Ling Yi reunited with his parents and younger sister, Ling Li, and told Ling Zhan that he would repeat the school year after resting at home.
• Ling Yi set up a New Lady White Snake simulation with ten randomly selected transmigrators, ten thousand viewers, and a hundredfold cultivation system, and chose to transmigrate as well.
• At eight p.m., Ling Zhan and Cong Lanzhi collapsed onto the sofa and woke up in the viewing space after the system brought them there.
• Bai Mengyan and Ni Xueqin met in a peach grove, and Bai Mengyan began laughing uncontrollably after Ni Xueqin joked with her.
• Ni Xueqin introduced herself to Ling Yi, confirmed that ordinary people could be selected as transmigrators, and opened her system mission interface.

Ni Xueqin, Bai Mengyan, and Ling Yi tested Bai Mengyan’s Hundredfold Cultivation System in the world of New Legend of Lady White Snake. After Ni Xueqin and Ling Yi rapidly strengthened themselves with exercise, a beast’s roar and a gathering thundercloud forced the three to flee.

• Bai Mengyan spent 5,000 points to acquire the Qi Refining Realm technique and began meditating as its inheritance entered her.
• Ling Yi explained that Hundredfold Cultivation could boost ordinary exercise, so he and Ni Xueqin tested it with push-ups while Bai Mengyan cultivated.
• After two hours, Ni Xueqin’s combat power had risen to 56 and her appearance had changed, while Bai Mengyan’s combat power was 45.
• The three ate energizing fruit from trees in the peach grove and wondered whether the secluded place belonged to an immortal or demon.
• A beast roared as a dark cloud gathered with lightning in the distance, and Ling Yi urged everyone to run from what might be a demon undergoing Tribulation Transcendence.

Ling Yi, Ni Xueqin, and Bai Mengyan fled a terrifying storm and found a vast cave that turned out to be the abode of Bai Suzhen, a powerful white snake monster. After Bai Mengyan fainted at the sight of her, Ling Yi introduced himself and his companions as junior martial artists who had entered the cave by mistake.

• Ling Yi led Ni Xueqin and Bai Mengyan away from the peach grove, and the three ran for two hours before reaching an apple orchard.
• Ling Yi noticed there were no animals or birds nearby, and the group suspected they remained inside a great monster's territory.
• The three explored a glowing cave and recognized its inhabitant as Bai Suzhen after Ling Yi recalled the opening music from Lady White Snake.
• Ling Yi used his aura to probe Bai Suzhen and discovered her formidable abilities, including an incomplete Art of Creation.
• Bai Suzhen appeared before the group in her giant snake form, causing Bai Mengyan to faint and Ni Xueqin to turn pale.
• Ling Yi introduced himself and his companions as junior martial artists seeking immortal reishi herbs, claiming they had entered Bai Suzhen's abode by mistake.

Ling Yi, Ni Xueqin, and Bai Mengyan met Bai Suzhen in her cave and learned that she would soon take human form, then agreed to follow her down the mountain. When a peach blossom demon attacked, Bai Suzhen protected the group while Ling Yi secretly weakened the demon and charged into his Peach Blossom Miasma.

• Bai Suzhen told Ling Yi that the Immortal Lingzhi Herb was rare and revealed that she could take human form in half a month.
• Ling Yi asked to observe Bai Suzhen's transformation, and she agreed to leave the mountain with the group afterward.
• A peach blossom demon entered the cave and threatened Bai Suzhen, who enclosed the group with her body and assured them she would prevent the demon from escaping.
• Bai Mengyan befriended Bai Suzhen, and Ling Yi and Ni Xueqin joined in calling her sister before Bai Suzhen encouraged them to fight the demon.
• The peach blossom demon attacked Ling Yi with Peach Blossom Miasma, but Ling Yi secretly reduced the demon's combat power and charged through the mist to punch him.

Ling Yi defeated the peach blossom demon by combining his growing combat strength with his Download Halo, plundering its cultivation method and Divine Abilities. After Bai Suzhen departed to prepare for taking human form, Ling Yi and the others planned how to cultivate and pursue their main quest.

• Ling Yi outmaneuvered the peach blossom demon, interrupting its spells and growing stronger as he fought.
• Ling Yi used the Download Halo to plunder the demon’s Spirit-Devouring Method and Divine Abilities, then drained its remaining combat power and beat it into a withered peach tree.
• Ni Xueqin questioned Ling Yi’s strength, while Bai Suzhen warned him about Karma and Karmic Force.
• Bai Suzhen left the cave to prepare for taking human form and told Ling Yi, Ni Xueqin, and Bai Mengyan to use the food there and meet her in half a month.
• Ling Yi suggested they use their cheats to train their abilities, while Ni Xueqin proposed finding demons and completing the main quest to obtain a Qi Refining Realm cultivation method.

Ling Yi, Bai Mengyan, and Ni Xueqin completed their missions by hunting monsters near the edge of Bai Suzhen’s territory, then spent half a month cultivating with a hundredfold cultivation boost. When Bai Suzhen flew out to face a terrifying transformation tribulation, Ling Yi saw two data panels, flickered between visible and invisible, and left a tiny peach sapling behind as he returned to the cave.

• Bai Mengyan disrupted the spiritual Qi near a valley, rousing a nest of monsters, and the three fled until the beasts stopped at the boundary of Bai Suzhen’s territory.
• Ling Yi lured monsters across the boundary and crippled them for points, while Ni Xueqin questioned whether their world was real and what would happen after the transmigrators left.
• The three completed their missions, returned to Bai Suzhen’s cave, and spent half a month exercising and cultivating until Bai Mengyan and Ni Xueqin could cast spells and fly.
• Bai Mengyan summoned an unusually powerful lightning bolt, darkening the sky and bringing a mass of lightning overhead.
• Bai Suzhen flew out to face the tribulation and ordered the others into the cave; Ling Yi saw two data panels, flickered between visible and invisible, and left a half-foot-tall peach sapling where he had been.

Ling Yi upgraded his Download Halo and secretly absorbed Bai Suzhen’s cultivation and a fragment of the Art of Creation, uncovering a Buddhist plot tied to her path to immortality. The group sailed on West Lake, where Bai Suzhen ended the chapter by singing the song Ling Yi had started.

• Ling Yi paid one hundred million Transmigration Points to upgrade his Download Halo with plunder, copy, and recording functions.
• Ling Yi downloaded Bai Suzhen’s combat power, cultivation methods, spells, and a fragment of the Art of Creation, then deduced that the Buddhist School sought to obstruct her ascension.
• Bai Suzhen sensed Ling Yi’s sudden growth and resolved to speak with him about it.
• Ling Yi sang a song on the boat, and Bai Mengyan and Ni Xueqin joined in before recognizing his next song as one associated with Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian.
• Bai Suzhen learned the song after hearing it once and sang it herself, leaving Ling Yi, Bai Mengyan, and Ni Xueqin astonished.

Ling Yi warned Bai Suzhen that Guanyin’s spell consumed merit, karmic luck, and the irreplaceable power of creation, and Bai Suzhen discovered she had already paid a steep cost for using it. Their conversation was interrupted when Chen Chichi and Xiao Qing fled Fahai toward the Broken Bridge, leaving Ling Yi and the others poised to fight the monk despite the risk of drawing the Buddhist School’s attention.

• Bai Mengyan asked why the Broken Bridge had its name, and Ni Xueqin explained several origin stories.
• Bai Suzhen told Ling Yi she was struggling to find the person connected to her by karma, and Ling Yi asked her to teach him her spell for viewing past lives.
• Ling Yi’s system warned him that the spell consumed merit, karmic luck, and nonrenewable power of creation, so he warned Bai Suzhen not to use it again.
• Bai Suzhen checked her reserves and realized that the spell had already cost her a tenth of her merit and more than a dozen strands of creation power.
• Chen Chichi and Xiao Qing fled Fahai across the lake, but their guns failed to hurt him, so Chichi led them toward the Broken Bridge and threw grenades to slow their pursuer.
• Ling Yi triggered a hidden quest for the group to defeat Fahai ten times, while Bai Suzhen warned that fighting him could attract the Buddhist School’s attention.

Ling Yi blocked Fahai from pursuing Bai Suzhen, outmaneuvered him with questions about the Buddhist School, and forced him to flee. He then spoke privately with Bai Suzhen about the Buddhist School’s possible scheme involving her Power of Creation, while the system confirmed that the world included hidden settings beyond the television series.

• Ling Yi confronted Fahai over his plan to subdue the green snake and challenged the Buddhist School’s distinction between demons and Buddhas.
• Fahai raised his Buddhist staff to attack Ling Yi but forgot how to wield it, then fled when Ling Yi ordered him to leave.
• Ling Yi returned to the Broken Bridge, where Bai Suzhen called him aside to ask about his identity and purpose.
• Ling Yi told Bai Suzhen he opposed the Buddhist School because it was scheming against her, and she warned him that its power was far greater than he imagined.
• Ling Yi asked the system about the Buddhist School’s plot and learned that the world’s hidden settings had been added by a previous host.

Ling Yi and his companions finished farming treasure chests by repeatedly beating Fahai, then discovered Bai Suzhen had met Xu Xian and fallen for him. Bai Suzhen accepted that their meeting might be more than coincidence, while Ling Yi and the others decided to support her; the words of a song about a thousand-year wait visibly affected her.

• Ling Yi and the others completed their final rounds of treasure-chest farming at Jinshan Temple, leaving Fahai exhausted and Xiao Qing troubled by their treatment of him.
• Ling Yi and his companions returned to their manor and found Bai Suzhen talking with Xu Xian, whom she had met after lending him an umbrella at Broken Bridge.
• Bai Suzhen admitted that she liked Xu Xian, and Ling Yi and the others chose not to tell her that Xu Xian was the reincarnation of the shepherd boy.
• Bai Suzhen explained that she had lent Xu Xian an umbrella and learned he was a physician, while the others teased her and sang songs from The New Legend of Madame White Snake.
• Bai Suzhen told Ling Yi that coincidences did not matter if Xu Xian was the right person, and she visibly trembled when the group sang about a thousand-year wait.

Ling Yi and his companions prepared to leave the Lady White Snake world and opened their treasure chests to choose rewards. Chichi chose points and Bai Mengyan chose a weakened cultivation golden finger, while Ni Xueqin saw her own rewards and looked to Ling Yi.

• Over three peaceful months, Bai Suzhen married Xu Xian, defeated Fahai, and drove him from Jinshan Temple, while Ling Yi downloaded Guanyin's abilities and continued copying data from the Eye of Thunder Punishment.
• Ni Xueqin and Bai Mengyan said they were ready to leave, but Ling Yi wanted to stay another month; Chichi decided to remain as well.
• Chichi opened his chest and chose 100,000 points instead of 20 permanent combat power.
• Bai Mengyan opened her chest and chose to keep a weakened version of her hundredfold cultivation golden finger, allowing her to cultivate twice as fast.
• Ni Xueqin opened her chest, saw her rewards, and looked at Ling Yi.
