Under the sky and heaven, nothing was impossible for humans. They could conquer demons, gods, and lead the three realms – god’s realm, demon’s realm, and human’s realm.
In an unknown time and space, an old man with deep wrinkles all over his face laughed hysterically. His eyes shone brightly as a spectacular display of millions of colorful lights danced in front of him. Tears brimmed over and fell on his cheek. “After a hundred years of sweat and blood, I finally achieved what I lived for,” he murmured softly. “All living things are controlled by karma. Every one of them is tied by karma and will be its slave even after their death!”
Years ago, using millions of modern machines coupled with his unusually great intelligence, he succeeded in capturing his thread of karma and following it to the highest dimension – the dimension of karma, where the fates of gods, demons, humans, and all living things were controlled.
The old man suddenly fell to his knees and choked up some blood. His body, already so old, trembled, unable to follow his will. A tear rolled down his face. “Ye Xiu… I did it… I will find you soon…”
“My body, please be under my command a little longer. I will let you sleep as much as you want later. Just a little longer…”
Squashing all his might and enduring the pain of his old bones, he managed to raise himself to his feet. His eyes shone at the dancing light. He had spent his lifetime on these experiments for one purpose: to steal the Book of Karma that recorded everything under the heavens.
In his spacious laboratory, millions of machines processed in parallel. Uncontrollable light and energy ran amok, causing sparks to fly everywhere. In the core of the violent energy was an illusion of a book. The Illusionary book shook violently, trying to break through the shield energy wrapping tightly around it. The old man hurried after the book and grabbed it tightly, his hands trembling hard. At the same time, the sky changed rapidly outside the laboratory’s building. Within a radius of 50 kilometers from the laboratory, gigantic dark clouds emerged, followed by thousands of lightning bolts flashing brutally from cloud to cloud, all racing towards one direction – the sky immediately above the laboratory’s building. Then, thousands of lightning bolts combined into one of the largest bolts ever seen, transforming into a rainbow color before shooting at the Book of Karma with a deafening roar.
Heaven would never allow something like that to be born.
The old man knew it. He rushed to open the Book of Karma and shouted at the same time, “Take me to YE XIU!!!”
The gigantic lightning blasted the laboratory's roof away in a millisecond, destroying everything in its path to the old man and the book. In milliseconds, the opened Book of Karma dazzled with a bright light and sucked the old man into its pages like a space rift.
The old man felt himself flying into the wormhole of dimensions at bullet speed, hitting multilayers of very bright light. He flashed through billions of stars floating in a warm voided space. Suddenly, everything froze – the lights, the stars, the movement.
“Human! You broke the law! You are worthy of death a thousand times. Since I am benevolent, I will spare you this time. But… Ehmm…” The voice rang around the voided space awesomely.
“Human! You must conquer all three realms – the human’s realm, god’s realm, and demon’s realm – in 100 years! THEN, will I grant you your wish!” The voice echoed from all directions. “If you fail, your spirit will die, and you won’t ever get reincarnated. Even the soul of Ye Xiu will die with you forever…”
“Who are you!” The old man became angry. “If you dare touch Ye Xiu, I will kill you!!!”
“Hahahaha…. kill me…. hahaha very funny. I am Alpha and Omega!!! I am Your Creator, Your One and Only God! I am The True Source of Everything!”
The old man was perplexed by the response and doubtfully asked, “God?”
“Human! Do you know the Ten Commands?”
“No, what are they?”
“Listen to these commands and put them in your heart. First command, ‘I am your God! Listen to Me and never doubt Me!’” said the voice ringing awesomely in all directions in space.
The old man’s brows furrowed. That didn’t answer his doubt at all. “And the second command?”
“Second command; If you ever doubt God, please look at the First command!”
The old man felt something was amiss here and doubtfully asked again, “And the third one?”
“Third command; If you ever doubt, and doubt again about God, please refer to the second command!”
“…”
“Fourth command; If you ever doubt, doubt, and doubt again about God, please refer to the third…”
“Alright, I got it! The next commands will be more ‘doubt’ and ‘refer to’, right?”
“Wrong! You arrogant guy! The tenth command is different!”
“So, what is it?”
“The tenth command: No matter how much you doubt God, even if you have no faith in God, God will never stop believing in you and loving you!”
The old man was dumbfounded and doubtfully asked again. “Do YOU love me? God…?”
“Yes, but since you doubted me again, you must be punished! Your mission will be made harder! In 100 years, you have to conquer one thousand beauties.”
“Conquer?” He didn’t really get the meaning of conquer.
“In the countries far away, there are many deserted lands and forests, and in the middle of these places, there are many lonely dungeons.”
“Conquer a dungeon? Or beauties?” The old man scratched his head.
“Do you know the toughest dungeon that God ever created?”
“What is it, God?”
“A woman’s heart!”
“…”
“Some may be easy to conquer, but some stubbornly lock their hearts in cold and god-killing dungeons. It is your job to conquer their heart’s dungeon, open their locked hearts, make them feel your warmth, let them know the greatest things about love, feel the joy of life in happiness, and above all, make them love ME and have faith in ME!”
“Okay, I got it: make them love me and have faith in me…”
A long silence before a thundering roar was heard. “Not you! But in Me…”
“I got it, God. Make one thousand beauties open their hearts to me, not You but me!”
“You! Ignorant human, I have enough of you! If you can’t finish these two missions in 100 years, hmmm… never think about meeting Ye Xiu again!”
“You dare…”
Suddenly darkness came and engulfed everything.
Cold... Drops of water fell onto his face, awakening him from his deep slumber. He opened his eyes but couldn’t see anything except darkness. He felt really tired, his body cold and stuck with slimy things. He pushed his hand forward, trying to move the things that blocked him aside, and forced himself to stand. Immediately, everything looked clear, sunlight shining through the gaps in murky clouds. He shivered as he found himself standing on a mountain of dead bodies, his body covered in sticky blood. Rain fell heavily as it tried to wash the dark blood's color from his body. He dragged his tired body away from the mountain of dead bodies and looked around, finding himself in the middle of a wrecked village. Houses were broken beyond repair, dead bodies lying like sand on a beach, scattered along the streets. Blood and rainwater combined to form a red river. "What has happened to this village?" An old man suddenly appeared behind him, shocking him. He looked at the old man and at
Jaime proceeded through the forest and found a wide river."Conquer three realms, be the king of all living things, and open one thousand beauties' hearts! Even Tong Sam Chong, who took a journey to the west, walking thousands of miles, had to start with a single step, devotion! As for my single step, it will be... taking a bath in the river!" Jaime looked at his body packed with dry blood and mud. He opened all his clothes, jumped into the river, and enjoyed its cold water.After a few minutes, he began to calm down. He looked around at this place far, far away from his original world. This place was much better than his original world. The air was much fresher. He didn’t know if he would ever go back to his world anymore. Jaime clenched his fist."My hundred years’ research failed, but I got a second chance to meet Ye Xiu. Not to mention conquering the three realms and 1000 hearts. Even if it needs more than that, I will take the risk." Jaime shouted with all his strength. "In 100 y
"Lalala... I am the almighty digger! I dig once, I find tons of gold. I dig twice, the spring of youth flows. I dig thrice, the goddess of beauty lies waiting to embrace me. I dig a fourth time, I awaken from my silly dream...!" Jaime dug a very large hole underground. With his level at 6, digging wasn't too hard for him. After half a day of digging, he placed some tree branches and dry leaves to cover the hole.His right hand grabbed a simple bow he made for hunting small animals and ran to the nearest demonic beast he could find. He tried to locate the dumbest demonic beasts with 1-3 points of intelligence that he could provoke. This was the law of the jungle: the smartest eat the dumbest. Immediately, he found one lazily eating grass."I am the future king of gods and demons! Behold my power! Tiny beast, please happily become my food!" He quickly pulled his bow with all his strength and let an arrow fly to hit the Hundred Horns Rhino.He kept shooting the beast with all his strengt
Hundred horns rhino weigh around 1-2 tons. With that much meat, Jaime made some dried meat. For a week, he kept busy with his demonic beast carcasses. He also tried to use the horns and the skin to make something useful. Then that morning, Jaime met his second arch enemy, another inner disciple of Bamboo Peak.“So you really hunted that demonic beast?”“Yes, I did.” Jaime glanced at a woman around thirty in front of the cave. Usually, most inner disciples of Bamboo Peak hide in the cave; only when he was really unlucky would he meet someone that would squash him dry.“Don’t lie to me; I could sense that you aren’t even in the elementary realm. How could you kill a demonic beast, which is at least in the elementary realm?” The woman didn’t look cold; instead, she gave the feeling of lust and danger at the same time. She was the type who liked to gain attention the most, but would happily kill or torture anyone that tried to take a bit of her, a natural-born sadist.“I am a humble perso
I am the almighty hunter! This whole jungle is mine! All the animals and demonic beasts bow to me!” Jaime ran for his life. Four demonic beasts were chasing him restlessly. “F**kkkkkkkk!!!”He jumped and two demonic beasts fell into the hole-traps behind him. The other two kept chasing him a few meters before they fell into the next hole-traps.Without resting, Jaime jumped into the hole, killed the demonic beasts, and sucked out their own-less energy. His level advanced to level 21, Junior Realm. These last four days, he was working like crazy, killing as many demonic beasts as he could.With bloodshot eyes, he cut the demonic beast’s head and collected their core. Finishing the work, he looked around. There were fifty demonic beast carcasses. Some had started to decay and turned smelly.No matter how hard Jaime worked, reaching 200 stones for two sets of ceramics seemed to be impossible. He only had 50 low-level demonic beast cores worth 50 spiritual stones, even though he had been
A shadow suddenly flashed in front of Jaime, a cold sword appeared out of nowhere and stopped at Jaime’s neck.He didn’t dare move a single finger as the sharpness of the sword had slightly sliced his neck skin.“Dear goddess of beauty, I am really sorry, I never intend to peek at anything. Please believe in me. I am the most honest guy of three realms. If you don’t believe me, you can ask any random person passing by, they will tell you how honest I am as a human.”The girl wore white robe and appeared in Jaime vision. Her eyes looked a little curious.“What? You don’t know me? I am very famous,” said Jaime quickly. “I am a slave of Bamboo Peak; I make food and wash your clothes every day. I was there to take fishes for your breakfast. Not having any dirty mind.”The girl’s eyes suddenly appeared resolute and the sword moved to cut Jaime’s neck. Seem like slave really had no reason for life.“Wait! Wait! I am not a slave for real. I am future king of three realms. But now I am here b
At the moment he walked out the gate of bamboo peak, surprisingly a silhouette flashed and stopped him.The cold girl stood there like a stone, she was wearing black veil to close her face, leaking a flower scent from her body and her dark long hairs were fluttering by the wind like a shampoo advertisement.“You dare to run away!” The killing intent was so thick causing Jaime uncontrollably pouring cold sweat. Xiao Yun had regretted letting Jaime escape with his life.“No... No... No... Please believe me, I just want to go to the market and buy things to make pill for you. I don’t have a cauldron and herbs with me right now. Even if I have three legs, I won’t dare to run away from you. I had been searching for you for thousands of years. This man may run because of a demonic beast, but will never run away from you, before making you happy. You can kill me if I lie to you.”Xiao Yun stared coldly. “I follow. Move.”At the market, Jaime felt an icy cold chill at his back whereever he mo
“Alright, tell them, if they succeed in making pills, this shop will be happy to buy it on market price.” The old lady took care of the order. “The total price is 5.700 spiritual stones.”Jaime turned his face to Xiao Yun. “You know I don’t have money. When I finished the pills, I will pay you back with 5% interest.”Jaime thought that Xiao Yun must be very rich so he put orders for making a lot of pills and space storage pouches too. He would take any opportunity while he could.“Don’t have anymore. That was the last of my savings.” Xiao Yun coldly answered, causing Jaime to be frozen.She is broke?Xiao Yun looked at Jaime and sighed deeply. She threw a jade bottle to the old woman.“First Dragon Pill!” The old woman checked pill inside the jade bottle. “It is priced about 3.000 stones market place. I will take it for 2.900 stone. So, added with your 3.000 spiritual stones and minus your buying stuff, you still have 200 stones left.”Jaime smelled a faint scent from the pill and bec
