Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

The next day at noon, sunlight streamed into the bedroom through the gaps in the curtains, casting a warm, golden band of light on the floor.

Lin Yao rolled over, groggily opened his eyes, saw the bright sunshine outside the window, and yawned.

Then he slowly got out of bed, stretched, and his bones cracked and popped.

He was on duty in the Star Palace until very late last night. Although with his current strength, he could go without sleep for several days and nights without any problems, sleeping is more of a habit and a pleasure for him.

After washing up, Lin Yao went to the kitchen, poured himself a glass of water, and leaned against the window to drink it slowly.

Outside the window, workers are busy repairing the neighborhood damaged by the tornado.

The roar of excavators, the pounding of hammers, and the shouts of workers mingled together, creating a vibrant scene.

As Lin Yao watched all this, he couldn't help but recall his experience in the Star Palace last night.

Last night, after Lin Yao from the One-Punch Man world and Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder from the King's Continent who had fully inherited the Five Thunder Drum, took turns, the two sat on the Star Throne and chatted.

They sipped fine wine made from the power of the stars and chatted about interesting things from their respective worlds.

"You wouldn't believe it, that little girl named Tornado has a really fiery temper," Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man, said with a smile, holding his wine glass. "Yesterday at noon, she just broke down the door and threw me out of bed. Luckily, I reacted quickly, or she really would have succeeded."

Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder, chuckled and said, "Your world is quite lively. Mine is much more boring; all I do is fry fish all day. After inheriting the Five Thunder Drum, everyone except Di Jun and Hai Yue is a complete annihilation to me. After fighting so many of them, it's gotten pretty boring."

"You're living in Versailles." Lin Yao from One-Punch Man rolled his eyes. "I'm training like crazy every day. When I spar with Saitama, I could get sent flying if I'm not careful. Unlike you, who's always so carefree."

"That's part of strength too," Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder, shrugged. "Besides, didn't you enjoy fighting Saitama? That feeling of every punch landing is something that fried fish can't compare to."

Lin Yao from One-Punch Man thought for a moment and nodded: "That's true. Fighting Saitama is really exhilarating. It allows me to quickly integrate the power within my body and constantly break through my limits. If I hadn't fought him a few times, I wouldn't have been able to master the power granted to me by the Star Palace so quickly."

As the two were talking, they suddenly sensed a fluctuation coming from the depths of the Star Palace.

That's a sign that someone's joining.

The two exchanged a glance and stood up simultaneously. Their figures flickered in the starlight and then vanished from the throne. The next second, they appeared in the hall of the Star Palace.

In the center of the hall, two beams of light were slowly coalescing. One beam was pale blue, as clear as spring lake water; the other was emerald green, as refreshing as a mountain breeze.

After the light faded, two figures appeared in the hall.

The person on the left was wearing a loose white training uniform and wooden clogs, with a bamboo knife hanging from his waist. He was tall and slender with delicate features, and looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. His eyes held a hint of confusion and wariness, but more than anything, curiosity and anticipation.

The man on the right wore a magnificent brocade robe, a jade crown, and a fine jade pendant at his waist. He was handsome and had a noble air, clearly of noble birth. However, his eyes held a hint of cynicism, and a half-smile played on his lips, making him look every bit the spoiled brat.

"Welcome to the Star Palace, newcomers." Lin Yao from One-Punch Man stepped forward and said with a smile, "I am Lin Yao from the One-Punch Man world. This gentleman next to me is also Lin Yao, from the King's Continent world. You can call us seniors, or you can just call us by our names."

The two newcomers glanced at each other, then simultaneously turned their gaze to Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man.

"Where...is this place?" the boy in training clothes asked first, his voice tinged with wariness. "I was just practicing swordsmanship in the dojo a moment ago, how did I suddenly end up here?"

"This is the Star Palace, a special space that connects countless worlds," Lin Yao from One-Punch Man explained. "Lin Yao from each world, after meeting certain conditions, will be selected by the Star Palace to become a member of the transmigrator team. Simply put, you are one of the lucky ones chosen."

"A lucky one?" The boy in training clothes frowned. "Why do I have a bad feeling about him?"

"Don't worry, once you experience the thrill of stacked power, you'll feel like this is a windfall," Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder, interjected. "By the way, why don't you introduce yourselves first? Tell us which world you're from and what your current situation is."

The boy in training clothes was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I come from... a world called Date A Live."

"Date A Live?" Lin Yao from One-Punch Man raised an eyebrow. "That name sounds pretty romantic."

"Romantic?" A bitter smile appeared on the boy's lips. "If you actually lived in that world, you wouldn't find it romantic."

He paused, then continued, "That world, on the surface, appears to be an ordinary modern city. But in reality, behind that world lurks an existence called 'Elves.' They are powerful young girls who cause immense disasters every time they appear, known as 'Spacequakes.' To fight against these Elves, humans have formed various organizations; some want to eliminate them, some want to exploit them, and some want to protect them."

"That sounds pretty complicated," said Lin Yao, the son of Thunder, stroking his chin.

"Yes, it's very complicated." The boy sighed. "And each of those spirits has a tragic past. They were created, used, betrayed, and hurt. The most famous of them all is Tokisaki Kurumi. She was once deceived and killed her best friend with her own hands, and from then on, she was trapped in endless pain and self-blame."

"That world, seemingly veiled by the beautiful word 'dating,' actually hides a profound tragedy and a cruel truth. Only those with absolute power can shatter the deep tragedy hidden behind that seemingly rosy world."

Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man character, nodded and asked, "And what about you? What's your situation in that world?"

A hint of embarrassment appeared on the boy's face: "I... I can only be considered an ordinary person with decent martial arts talent. My family has run a dojo for generations, but by my generation, it has declined somewhat. To make a living, I've relied on my good speaking skills to sell a lot of fitness classes, barely scraping by."

"As for strength..." The boy scratched his head, "To those powerful spirits, my strength is simply not enough. If they really get serious, I'm afraid I'll shatter with a single touch."

"Fortunately, there's still some time before the main story begins. I still have a chance to improve myself." The boy's gaze hardened. "And now, having joined the Star Palace, I feel my chance has arrived."

"Very good, it's good that you have this awareness." Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man, nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the other newcomer, "And you? What world are you from?"

The playboy in brocade robes cupped his hands and said with a grin, "My name is Lin Yao, from the world of Legend of Sword and Fairy 3. But if I had to call it the world of Legend of Sword and Fairy, I would prefer to call it—a dangerous world full of gods and monsters, where you can lose your life if you're not careful."

"Chinese Paladin 3?" Lin Yao from One-Punch Man was taken aback. "That world is no simple matter. There's a realm of gods, a realm of demons, a realm of humans, and all sorts of monsters and demons. If you're not careful, you'll be crushed as a stumbling block."

"Who says otherwise?" Lin Yao, in his brocade robe, sighed. "When I transmigrated there, I thought I'd gotten a great deal. After all, I was the son of a marquis, with a wealthy and powerful family, and I had no worries about food or drink. But what happened? When I awakened my memories of my past life, I realized that this world was a huge pitfall."

"The era I am currently in is the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty. On the surface, it appears to be a time of great prosperity and flourishing, but in reality, it has only been about seventy years since the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty. The various struggles in the court are already extremely intense. Although I, the son of a playboy marquis, am not in the center of power, I can still feel the undercurrents."

"And most importantly—the plot is about to begin." Lin Yao, in his brocade robe, turned serious. "The Tang Family Fortress incident is about to erupt, the Evil Sword Immortal is about to be born, and the entire Six Realms will be thrown into turmoil. And me? My strength is mediocre, I have no ability to withstand any risks. To be honest, I've been thinking—what should I do? I'm waiting online, it's urgent!"

Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man, and Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder, exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh.

"So how are you now? How do you feel after joining the Star Palace?" Lin Yao from One-Punch Man asked.

A bright smile spread across Lin Yao's face as he wore the brocade robe: "How does it feel? It feels fantastic! After completing the power stacking, I feel a surge of strength within me, and my previous worries have vanished. Now I'm wondering—can I refrain from eating beef at this time?"

"You don't eat beef?" Lin Yao, the son of Thunder, was taken aback. "What do you mean?"

"It's just... I want to challenge those high and mighty beings." A glint of light flashed in Lin Yao's eyes. "That Heavenly Emperor, Fuxi who was able to establish the God Race, seems very strong. If he really fought, even the Evil Sword Immortal might not be a match for him. But I might as well give it a shot. And I might as well sit on the throne of the Lord of the Three Realms."

"To become the overlord who rules the realms of gods, demons, and humans." When Lin Yao in his brocade robe said this, there was a hint of a joke in his tone, but his eyes were shining with seriousness.

Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man, looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "Your goal is quite ambitious."

"Everyone needs some ambition in life," Lin Yao, dressed in brocade robes, laughed. "Besides, if I don't cause some big trouble after transmigrating to that world, wouldn't it be a waste of my time?"

"That's right." Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder, nodded in agreement. "That's what I thought too after I inherited the Five Thunder Drum. Now that we have the power, we can't waste it. We should still use the fish that need to be fried."

"However, don't be too careless," Lin Yao from One-Punch Man warned. "The world of Chinese Paladin is very complex. Heavenly Emperor Fuxi, Demon Lord Chonglou, Evil Sword Immortal... these are all formidable opponents. Even with the power of the Star Palace, you can't let your guard down."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Lin Yao, in his brocade robe, nodded. "I won't act rashly. I'll develop my strength cautiously first, and then consider whether to cause trouble when I'm strong enough."

"That's good." Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man character, nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the boy from the Date A Live world, "And you? What are your plans?"

The boy thought for a moment, then slowly said, "I plan to... survive first."

"Survive?" Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man, was stunned for a moment. "It's that simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple." The boy's gaze was firm. "In that world, surviving is not an easy thing. The elves' spacequakes, the DEM Society's pursuit, the conspiracies and schemes of various organizations... one wrong move and you could lose your life."

"So, my primary goal is to survive. Then, I'll consider other things." The boy paused, then added, "Of course, if I have the chance, I also want to change the fate of those spirits. Kurumi Tokisaki, Tohka Yatogami, Kotori Itsuka... they shouldn't have to suffer such a tragedy."

"Very good, that's ambitious." Lin Yao from One-Punch Man patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, after joining the Star Palace, your strength will continue to improve. One day, you will have enough power to change those tragedies."

"Thank you, senior," the boy said sincerely.

"Don't call me senior, just call me Lin Yao," Lin Yao from One-Punch Man said with a smile. "We're all Lin Yao, no need to be so polite."

The four chatted for a while longer, exchanging information about their respective worlds and cultivation experiences. One-Punch Man Lin Yao and Son of Thunder Lin Yao shared some of their experiences and techniques with the two newcomers, helping them adapt to the power of the Star Palace more quickly.

Before we knew it, several hours had passed.

"It's getting late, I should head back." Lin Yao, the One-Punch Man character, checked the time and stood up. "I still have a ton of things to take care of. That girl, Tornado, is probably still throwing a tantrum. I wonder how Fubuki is doing."

"Me too." Lin Yao, the Son of Thunder, also stood up. "I still have Di Jun waiting for me to deal with. Although he's no match for me now, that guy is always up to his old tricks, which is quite annoying."

The newlyweds stood up and said goodbye to each other.

"See you next time," Lin Yao from One-Punch Man said to the two newcomers. "I hope that when we meet again, you will both be even stronger."

"It definitely will," the boy and Lin Yao in brocade robes said at the same time.

Back in the One-Punch Man world, Lin Yao lay in bed, recalling the events of the previous night, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

The arrival of these two newcomers signifies the growing strength of the Star Palace. Each Lin Yao from every world represents a force. When they come together, exchanging ideas, learning from each other, and helping one another, they can create a synergy greater than the sum of its parts.

Moreover, both worlds that have been opened this time are very interesting.

The world of Date A Live appears to be a lighthearted romantic comedy, but it actually hides a profound tragedy. Each of the spirits has a tragic past. Lin Yao, while currently of average strength, possesses considerable martial arts talent. With the help of the Star Palace, he is destined to grow and change the fate of those spirits.

The world of Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 is an even more complex and dangerous one. The divine realm, the demon realm, and the human realm are entangled in a constant struggle. The Heavenly Emperor Fuxi, the Demon Lord Chonglou, the Evil Sword Immortal… each is a formidable opponent. But Lin Yao of that world, though currently just the son of a spoiled nobleman, has begun to swell with ambition since joining the Star Palace. Perhaps he truly will ascend to the throne of the ruler of the three realms.
