System.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I supposed to do?

How on earth could this even be discovered???

The System was dumbfounded and fell into deep thought.

"Thou wishest to self-destruct?"

High above the void, Supreme Hongjun, standing at the center, looked toward the young man and spoke with an odd expression.

This really was a first in all his long years—weren't transmigrators supposed to be wildly arrogant, flashy, and over the top? And yet here was one with a brain?

This was somewhat unexpected for the group of titans. They had come intending to watch the show and enjoy some gossip, but never expected the transmigrator to just self-destruct on his own—what could the Great Desolation titans even say to that?

"Yes, this one shall self-destruct. This one is willing to tell everything this one knows, and begs the great ones to discern clearly."

"Transmigrating into the Great Desolation was not this one's wish; this one was coerced. I was sleeping soundly, and the next thing I knew, I had arrived here."

"This System even tricked me, saying this world was very weak, just some Medium Thousand World or whatever. But how could this one possibly believe this mysterious System's words? There must be something wrong with this System!"

"This one suggests the great ones first capture this System and take a look at the situation."

Seeing Supreme Hongjun and the others truly appear, the young man's heart jolted, and then he understood at once—they had long since discovered him! Of course, no need to think about it; having already self-destructed, he naturally had to say everything he could.

"...."

System.

"...."

Great Desolation titans.

The titans exchanged glances, each catching the subtle, wryly amused look in the others' eyes.

Another one who's been tricked?

Suddenly realizing the Great Desolation's path to the Gao Zhilu was brilliant—just look, the Heavenly Dao pulling this stunt made everyone think it was a Medium Thousand World. Wasn't this the classic act of playing the pig to eat the tiger?

Think about it carefully—if the Great Desolation later dropped to a Small Thousand World in the future? If someone invaded and saw only a Small Thousand World, thought victory was assured, and then discovered the actual situation, wouldn't they be scared out of their wits?

"Come with us, for a trip."

His voice calm, Supreme Hongjun waved a great hand. In an instant, the stars shifted, and the titans and the young man vanished from where they stood.

Everything around resumed its operation, as if nothing had changed at all.

Within the Purple Sky Palace.

One figure after another materialized, and upon seeing the change in his surroundings, the young man, who had already been standing upright, dropped to his knees without a second word.

"....."

The titans.

"Quite the character."

The group of titans smiled wryly.

Whether he was a transmigrator or not, they truly didn't care.

No matter how strong, so what? They were no longer the naive novices of the past. After coming into contact with the myriad heavens, the Great Desolation titans had long since become a different breed, and naturally wouldn't think a transmigrator could threaten them in any way.

Otherwise they wouldn't have planned to just sit back and watch the show—this point was the same as Li Mo's thinking.

What, another transmigrator popped up?

Transit group 371729119

Would it affect his own position?

Overthinking.

If he didn't even have this much confidence, Li Mo might as well just go and die.

After all the scheming and planning up to now, if a transmigrator went to another plane they might indeed thrive and rise to power, but in the Great Desolation? Don't even think about it. The gap in level was already too vast. How could Li Mo possibly care? Otherwise he wouldn't have treated it as mere entertainment.

If one were still weak and encountered a transmigrator, there might indeed be cause for wariness, but once powerful, what was there to fear?

It's like someone on Earth was reborn and became the world's richest man, only to encounter another reborn person—would he care?

The answer was self-evident.

I've already seized the first move; who cares if you're reborn or not.

The gap was too vast. So what if they were reborn? By the time they rose to power, the opportunity would have passed. Rather than trying to strangle them in the cradle, it was better to consider how to bring them under one's wing and turn them into one's own wage-slaves.

Mm, the type who forcibly cheats with an invincibility hack is a different story—no need to say more.

"Why have you no thoughts of defying the heavens, or of trampling Supreme Hongjun underfoot and beating the Heavenly Dao with your fists? Aren't transmigrators all like that? Oh, right—I am Supreme Hongjun."

Supreme Hongjun asked with great interest.

"......"

The Dao Ancestor, right before his eyes?

The young man nearly blacked out, frantically swallowing his saliva.

"Reporting to the Dao Ancestor, times have changed. The type of transmigrator you mentioned was the plot of novels from ten years ago... 0"

"People who read those kinds of novels might become arrogant and confident after transmigrating, but in my era, the novel market was so cutthroat that everyone already had brains, so I wouldn't be that stupid."

The young man said obediently.

"......"

Reality.

The titans were actually at a loss for words.

Seemed like there was nothing wrong with that.

"Times have changed," and it actually worked.

"Tell me everything you know, including your origins."

Supreme Hongjun said slowly.

"Yes, Ancestral Dao, and all the great ones."

"I come from Earth, my name is Wang Man, the era I am from is the twenty-first century, a world of technological civilization where the highest level of technological power can only destroy the planet's surface."

"Before I transmigrated, I was just an ordinary person in a country, my profession was writing novels; before I transmigrated, I was sleeping, and when I woke up, I found I had transmigrated."

"Whether our world hides some power of cultivation or powerful beings, I do not know clearly because I am just an ordinary person."

"As for the origin of this system, I only know a fragment; it is said to be the strongest, invincible system, but besides bragging, it is useless, and its level seems not high; at least, the Hidden in the Primordial World system could not see anything."

The young man, or rather Wang Man, concealed nothing and carefully spoke out all the things he knew.

Conceal?

No need.

That would be seeking death.

As for whether Earth would bring disaster to Earth, the young man was still at ease on this point.

There is no conflict of interest; how could these giants of the Primordial World destroy Earth for no reason? That would be purely sick; with the level of this plane, how could the Qi Society do such a nonsensical thing?

At most, it would be recruitment; speaking up is actually a good thing.

"Earth?"

"I heard from the Venerable One before that Earth seems to belong to one of the special planes of the Heavens; the Blue Star of the Xuanwu Realm we contacted before seems to be a derivative of Earth."

Nuwa's delicate brows furrowed slightly as she pondered and spoke.

Upon hearing this, a glint of sharp light flashed in the eyes of the Primordial giants, and their originally casual attitude became serious.

"Brother Fuxi, see if you can locate the coordinates of the plane where this person originally was."

After a brief pause, Supreme Hongjun looked at Brother Fuxi and said.

"This is not difficult; unlike the Plane of the Main God Space or Tiancheng which move constantly, a plane usually stays in place, and its coordinates do not change; unless the Earth plane has a very high rank, it should be locatable."

Brother Fuxi said with a smile, then waved his hand at the young man; the power of space and time gathered, like layer upon layer overlapping, as if a deep shadow of the Changhe flashed by, and infinite Daos settled.

His eyes closed slightly; in an instant, Brother Fuxi reopened his eyes and waved away the strange phenomena.

"Located."

Brother Fuxi said.

"Good."

Supreme Hongjun nodded slightly, reached out and grabbed at the young man; in an instant, brilliant light burst forth from the young man's brow, as if a wave of mysterious aura fluctuated around it.

"Eh? This system seems unusual."

The group of giants raised their eyebrows; Supreme Hongjun said with some surprise.
