Knocked off Their Pedestals, the World Has Gone Mad
After enjoying the Perfect, Liu Yi lazily lay back in the rocking chair and entered the system with his Divine Sense, intending to check the feedback from the system hosts on Fairness System 9.0.
Upon opening the forum, the top trending topic was "New Features of Fairness System 9.0".
He clicked on the entry, and what greeted his eyes were explanations of the new features and an increase in the number of automatically generated Energy Points.
I then opened the comments section and started browsing through them one by one:
"What I like most about this system update is the increase in the number of automatically generated Energy Points."
I'm desperately short of Energy Points, and I don't have any other skills, so I can only earn a meager living by growing spirit rice.
"Agreed! Before, the Energy Points generated automatically every day weren't enough for cultivation, let alone buying things. I could only earn some Energy Points by helping others with chores."
"Energy Points are too hard to earn! Many people want to earn Energy Points through live streaming, but without skills or good looks, no one watches. It's a complete waste of time. It's better to plant a few acres of spirit rice."
"I'm really looking forward to system upgrades. Every time there's an upgrade, the daily automatically generated Energy Points increase significantly."
"The automatically generated Energy Points increase is indeed great, but the other features are also fantastic."
The Reincarnation Illusion Realm, in particular, can directly improve State of Mind. You must know that on the path of cultivation, physical strength is easy to increase, but State of Mind is difficult to improve.
"That's what they say, but I don't need the Reincarnation Illusion Realm right now."
My State of Mind is in line with my cultivation progress, and I can also listen to Su Wantang play the zither to improve my State of Mind, so it's more than enough."
"That's right! Our cultivation progresses slowly, so we don't suffer from a lack of State of Mind at all."
Even if it's a little less, just listening to Su Wantang play the zither for free is enough. At most, I'll give her some Energy Points as a reward, which is much more worthwhile than spending 1 million energy points per session in the Reincarnation Illusion Realm.
"The Reincarnation Illusion Realm is prepared for prodigies; their cultivation increases rapidly, which is why they need to quickly improve their State of Mind."
"We ordinary people can't use it, and at 1 million Energy Points per use, we simply can't afford it."
"The Reincarnation Illusion Realm is for those who don't lack Energy Points. Let's just listen to Su Wantang play the zither. We can enjoy the heavenly music and improve our State of Mind at the same time—a win-win situation."
"Although Su Wantang's zither playing is excellent, her improvement speed is slow; the effects of the Reincarnation Illusion Realm are truly amazing."
I just tried it, and the problem of insufficient State of Mind was immediately resolved. I can finally continue to improve my cultivation.
"Now I can improve my State of Mind through the Reincarnation Illusion Realm, and I have Dao Comprehension Space in comprehending the Great Dao. I have basically filled in all the obstacles on my cultivation path."
As long as you have Energy Points, you can quickly improve your cultivation level and no longer fear Qi Deviation due to insufficient State of Mind.
Has anyone tried the Yin-Yang Ruins dungeon? What's it like inside?
"This instance requires a cultivation level of the Void Return Realm (Dao Soul Realm) or higher to enter, so you can imagine how dangerous it is."
There must be a lot of treasures inside. Is there anyone familiar with the Yin-Yang Ruins who can provide some information?
"I know! Yin-Yang Ruins is in the Central Continent. In the past, you needed Yin-Yang Token to enter and exit, but now you can enter and exit directly with the system."
It is indeed as dangerous as the description says, but it also contains many rare treasures.
"Who doesn't have zero Merit Value in their personal system center? This thing seems useless; who can actually do something that contributes to the world?"
Whether it's useful or not, there must be a reason why the system updated this function.
But I doubt anyone has Merit Points. If someone does, that would be amazing.
Seeing that the number of Energy Points automatically generated by the system, which was the most popular among everyone, had increased, Liu Yi couldn't help but smile slightly.
The massive amount of Energy Points invested in updating the system was not wasted, at least successfully alleviating the energy shortage predicament for many people.
As for the criticism that the Reincarnation Illusion Realm is overpriced, it's unavoidable. Maintaining its operation requires a huge amount of energy, and he only earns less than 50,000 Energy Points each time.
He knew that it was impossible to please everyone, and even if he didn't charge a penny, there would still be people who would find fault.
He stopped worrying and started scrolling through videos on TikTok until a "Yin-Yang Ruins Live Stream" caught his eye.
A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. He hadn't expected that someone would dare to venture into the Yin-Yang Ruins so quickly, and even know how to earn Energy Points through live streaming.
In the live stream, Liu Jingran, a cultivator at the Void Return Realm, was cautiously exploring the area around the entrance to the Yin-Yang Ruins.
"Look, everyone, the sky in this Yin-Yang Ruins is gray and gloomy, and the ground is so dark that not a single blade of grass grows. The entire secret realm is like the legendary Netherworld."
Moreover, the energy here is extremely violent, and it is very difficult to refine once inhaled.
If you intend to explore, be sure to prepare plenty of pills to replenish your spiritual energy, or accumulate more Energy Points, so that you can recover your spiritual energy faster.
He then changed the subject, "The streamer is also feeling his way across the river, it's a completely adventurous exploration of the Yin-Yang Ruins. If you're satisfied with the viewing, please consider supporting him with a donation!"
Seeing this, Liu Yi couldn't help but chuckle. The once unapproachable Void Return Realm expert was now fighting so desperately for Energy Points.
Not only did he personally venture into the Yin-Yang Ruins for a live stream, but his script for asking viewers for donations was also so practiced that it was clearly not his first time asking for donations during a live stream.
His gaze swept across the live chat, the screen filled with exclamations of amazement.
"Wow, is this the Yin-Yang Ruins? It looks terrifying! No wonder only those with the Void Return Realm (Dao Soul Realm) or higher can enter!"
"That's nothing. The streamer has only been wandering around the entrance to the Yin-Yang Ruins; he hasn't even really explored it yet."
"This gloomy atmosphere looks ominous. I wonder what dangers the streamer will encounter next, and whether he will face a battle against the Void Return Realm or higher."
Liu Yi chuckled as he read the comments on the screen. The Yin-Yang Ruins, after the battle where the Immortal Artifact appeared, had already lost countless experts.
Especially after he killed more than 300 cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm and Tribulation Transcendence Realm, the danger in the outer area is far less than before.
He left the live stream and continued browsing videos. In a short time, he came across a large number of videos of immortal maidens and fairies from various cultivation sects performing their unique skills.
As Liu Yi flipped through the pages, he chuckled again, "It seems the cultivation sects of the Eastern Desolation have truly abandoned their former arrogance."
Keeping up with the times, they not only join the common people of the Eastern Desolation, but also go to great lengths to please the masses, all in order to earn Energy Points.
In this light, I have effectively brought down the once-lofty cultivators of the Eastern Desolation, dragging them down with everyone else.
The art style is getting more and more outrageous, and it's become even more insane than before.
However, things are much better than before. At least ordinary people have a way to make a living and can pursue a better life, instead of just struggling to survive like before.
Suddenly, his eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed, "Holy crap! Am I seeing things?"
How could it be Ye Qingxue doing a live stream?
Could it be someone who looks similar? Or is someone in disguise impersonating her? But that couldn't possibly fool the system's AI.
He immediately verified through the system backend that the person broadcasting the live stream was indeed Ye Qingxue.
Looking at the verification results, he was completely stunned, filled with disbelief:
"How is this possible? Isn't she always aloof and elegant Ice and Snow Fairy?"
"How could he personally go live on stream? That's outrageous!"
He rubbed his temples, both amused and exasperated. "This world has become so crazy that I almost don't recognize it anymore."
