Chapter 28

~10 min read 1,871 words

Before Li Yu officially studied the front page headline, he also noticed two lines of text at the very top, indicating the special status of the Wanfu Daily.

"This newspaper is the second cultivator newspaper in the history of this world, with a publication time second only to the Tiangong Daily."

"Many colleagues in this newspaper office worked overtime and finally published it before the three nations of Gan, Jing, and Li. Let these three nations eat shit; long live Wanfu City."

It could be seen that the people in the Wanfu Daily office had been completely assimilated by Wanfu City.

The sense of honor was very strong, living to create the achievement of the second extraordinary newspaper in history, raising Wanfu City to the level of the three major nations.

"But aren't those who run the newspaper all people from the Tiangong Sect?"

"Although one should pay attention to 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do,' but scolding the three nations like this, will it really not implicate the Tiangong Sect headquarters?"

Li Yu muttered while officially looking at the heavyweight headline.

Not long after, as he read word by word, the doubt in his eyes faded, replaced by a very complex emotion.

"In order to welcome the two major festivals of 【Missionary Day】 and 【Demon Star Descent】."

"Wanfu City, the four districts of Dongnanxibei, will once again open the city gates wide, completely lift restrictions, open safe paths, and allow refugee populations from the three nations of Gan, Jing, and Li to enter the city freely."

"During this period, Wanfu City will be under martial law; original city residents are not allowed to leave the city, nor are they allowed to leave the workshop where their household registration is located."

Seeing this, Li Yu understood why two opposite words were placed together.

What really made him puzzled and shocked was the content that followed:

"On the first day after all refugees enter the city!"

"In Wanfu City, three types of people are allowed: ordinary mortals, unranked cultivators, and Sequence 8 cultivators of any path, to fight, loot, and snatch residences among themselves, with no taboos."

"The next day, the four major districts are requested to autonomously carry out new city resident registration."

"What is this?"

"Bottom-tier Battle Royale?"

"What is the purpose? To please the perverted high-level officials of Wanfu City? Or is it purely to cleanse a wave to accommodate new residents entering the city?"

At this moment, Li Yu only felt that he had completely opened his eyes.

This was extraordinary knowledge he had not come into contact with before, and it was not mentioned in the account book left by Sun Sanniang.

Honestly, in this front-page bulletin, many details made Li Yu puzzled.

For example, why would a city like Wanfu City, which is obviously very dangerous and horrific, still have a large number of refugees fleeing here, to the point that four city gates need to be opened to welcome them.

But no matter how puzzled he was, it couldn't change the facts; he could only accept and respond.

"In other words, in the next few days, a large number of refugees will pour into the city, and one of the days after that will be a purgatory like a Battle Royale."

"At that time, as long as it is Sequence 8 and below, one can loot everywhere, and this also includes my courtyard."

"Hmm? Could it be that Jiao Qing and Sun Sanniang, these two thieves, used this method to successfully settle down in the city?"

"If this is the case, it can be considered a comfort. After all, if this perverted couple can do it, I am now a formal cultivator, and I have an arm like Hongdou. If I prepare in advance, it shouldn't be difficult to hold on for a day."

"Besides... this kind of great cleansing can also bring me quite a few benefits."

Li Yu thought so, but saw the side effects of another level.

The great bottom-tier reshuffling... followed by new household registration.

This means that Li Yu can completely wash himself clean and completely remove labels like "Jiao family meat shop successor," "son of cannibal couple," "Jinshen egg," etc.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Li Yu can survive the cleansing.

After weighing it in his heart, Li Yu looked down with curiosity.

He wanted to know what the two major festivals were all about, that they needed such an absurd way of welcoming them.

This look made a look of excitement appear on his face again.

"【Missionary Day】!"

"This is a traditional festival in Wanfu City, held at irregular intervals. On this day, many god sects in the city can use their own means to preach. Usually, each sect will choose to distribute benefits, or show great power, create wonders, and let city residents convert and follow as much as possible."

"This festival has quite a bit of fame on this continent."

"Even in some past Missionary Days, true gods have descended on Wanfu City. For example, Fallen Buddhism once invited 【Black Maitreya】 to descend to the world."

"【Demon Star Descent】!"

"This is an emerging festival in recent years, with a very complex background story."

"From the ancient era, the five righteous gods have been fighting endlessly with many evil gods. Although the outcome in the mortal world has long been decided, on a higher level, both sides maintained a balance until the Warring States era of the human era, when the Tiangong Craft God descended from the sky to this world, and finally changes appeared."

"It is rumored that in order to be accepted by the five righteous gods, the Tiangong Craft God contributed a supreme treasure called 【Reincarnation Heavenly Net】, allowing cultivators of the six righteous god sects to go to small worlds like Mystic Domains and Spirit Realms to help their own true gods expand. Once the timing is ripe, they will collectively invade and divide these small worlds."

"In order to fight against the righteous god sects, the evil gods united to create the 【Demon Star Command】 and scattered them into the human world."

"Those who obtain the Demon Star Command will have the qualification to enter the Mystic Domain Spirit Realm." "At the same time, they must accept the summons of the Demon Star Command to expand for the evil gods and fight against the cultivators of the righteous god sects."

"Wanfu City, as the place with the most evil cultivators in this world, will have many Demon Star Commands flying in every period of time, and gradually it has formed a festival."

When Li Yu read to this point, the horror of the Battle Royale had been temporarily ignored by him.

In a trance, he seemed to see a bigger world unfolding towards him.

Mystic Domain!

Spirit Realm!

Li Yu had long since inquired about the meaning represented by these two terms.

Both refer to small worlds that transcend the mortal world. The former is related to evil gods and is mostly strange, horrific, and terrifying, while the latter is related to righteous gods and is slightly better.

Their formation times are new and old, and their states are different.

Some are like a real world, some are like illusory secret realms that exist in the past, and some are simply intercepted historical fragments.

The common point is that they all hide a large amount of cultivation resources and secrets that do not exist in the mortal world.

Even high-sequence powerhouses cannot resist the temptation to enter them, because the materials for many high-sequence secret medicine formulas only exist in these small worlds.

"The newspaper says that Demon Star Commands will collectively descend on Wanfu City."

"But there is no rule as to who will be chosen. In the past, even mortals without any power were hit by a Demon Star Command."

"Besides, they are in an invisible state once they enter the city. Even powerhouses of Sequence 1 or 2 cannot see the trajectory of the Demon Star Command."

"Doesn't this mean that I also have a chance?"

When his thoughts reached this point, Li Yu couldn't help but look forward to this festival.

The Spirit Venerable path he chose to cultivate!

In the mortal world, he couldn't find an organization at all, and had no clue about the next sequence.

The only hope was those Mystic Domain Spirit Realms.

Li Yu even made up his mind that he would think of some ways to inquire more about extraordinary knowledge related to the Demon Star Command.

He now had a guess: Zhu Mei's so-called promotion to the main temple should also be aimed at this Demon Star Command, wanting to advance to Sequence 7 Life-Begging Walker in advance... whether he is chosen is indeed irrelevant to cultivation, but after getting the Demon Star Command, he must accept the summons. Once he enters the Mystic Domain Spirit Realm, those with insufficient strength will naturally die the fastest.

Compared with this, the requirements of the Reincarnation Heavenly Net relied upon by the six righteous god sects are not so harsh.

"Unfortunately, I was reborn in this Wanfu City and can only choose the Demon Star Command."

"If it were in the three nations, the six righteous god sects could be chosen at will, and one could enter the so-called Reincarnation Heavenly Net. Wouldn't that be much cooler?"

"According to the jargon of the previous life's online games, I chose the wrong spawn point, and the novice village difficulty is off the charts."

Li Yu made a joke to himself, and then realized that the first edition content had been read.

At the same time, as if he felt something, he suddenly glanced at his eye membrane.

Surprise!

Came abruptly.

That fourth Truth Bubble was actually filled unknowingly.

Obviously, because this heavyweight front-page headline of the Wanfu Daily was judged to be excellent extraordinary knowledge, it was able to accelerate to perfection.

The one-time analysis of all things consumed yesterday was regained today, with stronger power and a larger range.

"Good, good, good!"

"From today on, I am the most loyal customer of the 'Wanfu Daily'."

"Subscription, must subscribe to all of them without missing a single issue."

Li Yu was in a great mood, so he continued to flip to the second page.

Under the front page, it seemed to be various news events that had happened in Wanfu City over the past period of time.

Just the first one made Li Yu look sideways.

"A large-scale suicide tragedy occurred in the East District of Wanfu City, causing hundreds of deaths, including many cultivators with extraordinary powers. The common point is that they were all in a survival dilemma."

"The murderer was confirmed to be Gongsun Qi, who claimed that he did this to allow these city residents living in pain to be liberated early."

"But subsequent investigations revealed that Gongsun Qi believes in the evil god 【Hanging King】 and is currently a Sequence 6 Merciless One."

"This incident is part of his promotion ritual."

"Because of violating relevant laws, the East District has issued a wanted order for Gongsun Qi, with a very high reward."
