The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

Venerable Fuyun quickly helped Venerable Qingmeng up, "What happened to you?"

Venerable Qingmeng: "I am in despair."

Venerable Fortune: "Huh?"

Venerable Qingmeng: "Why didn't anyone tell me before that the Illusionary Dream Path is this amazing!"

Chi Miao really understands the Illusionary Dream Path completely!

She knows more than he does!

The more Venerable Fortune listened, the more confused he became. "What are you talking about?"

Venerable Qingmeng spent quite a while explaining to Venerable Fuyun.

Venerable Fuyun smiled and said, "A Foundation Establishment stage girl is that powerful? I don't believe it."

Venerable Qingmeng: "...Anyone who does not believe will encounter misfortune. Go and see for yourself."

So he took Venerable Fortune with him and went to see.

At this moment, Jin Shengfei had already cultivated a trace of Dao essence. Although it was not much, it was enough to completely achieve Chi Miao's expected goal.

But he still didn't wake up.

Venerable Qingmeng: "Why don't you wake him up?"

Chi Miao: "Everyone else is still trying to understand the Dao, and he thinks he can rest after only grasping a little bit?"

Venerable Qingmeng: "But this is far too cruel!"

Chi Miao: "Cruel? Where in the cultivation world isn't cruel? If he doesn't understand, plenty of others will!"

Venerable Qingmeng: "Enough! I feel sorry for them."

Venerable Fuyun chuckled and said, "Oh dear, isn't this wonderful? Back then, we didn't have these conditions, and we even had people helping us to attain enlightenment."

That's all.

He saw Chi Miao continue to direct Yu Wuxin, making the prodigies struggle back and forth between joy and pain, without a moment to catch their breath.

The prodigies sometimes go crazy, sometimes go mad, sometimes laugh out loud, sometimes weep bitterly, and sometimes crawl and roll on the ground.

Venerable Fortune: "What...what...what is this?!"

Chi Miao shrugged: "Enlightenment, what else can I do?"

Venerable Fuyun: "Is this how enlightenment is attained? Isn't this just pushing someone to their death?!"

Chi Miao: "Back in your day, resources and conditions were so good that you could achieve success effortlessly. Times have changed! If you don't work hard, you'll fall behind! And if you fall behind, you'll be vulnerable to attack!"

"Sigh, we don't have the same conditions as you did back then!"

Venerable Fuyun and Venerable Qingmeng were both stunned.

"Rebel against the Heavenly Gang!!"

Where did you come from?

They are our predecessors! Times are changing!

Chi Miao: "Don't you believe me? If I had been born in your time, I would definitely be more successful than you all."

What else did the two want to refute?

Paige: "How dare you!"

Mirror Spirit: "My mother is right. You're all used to being lazy and good-for-nothing, so you don't know what hard work feels like! My mother knew she would be criticized for doing this, but she still did it. Why? That's why my mother is a great person!"

"Seriously... you two, try pretending to be seniors again! Others may not know your talents, but do you think we don't? If we were from the same era, both of you combined wouldn't be as good as my mother! Acting like elders... you should just obediently wait for the inheritance!"

As Jingling spoke, she felt aggrieved for her mother's thankless efforts.

Chi Miao immediately sprang into action, faking her tears without managing to squeeze out a single one, and while holding the Mirror Spirit, she said:

"It's alright, there's no need to speak up for me. It's understandable that they don't understand since they've been dead for so long. Mother is willing to bear the stigma of cruelty."

"Mother—"

"Mirror Spirit—"

"Mother—!"

"Mirror Spirit—!"

The mother and daughter were clinging to each other tightly.

Venerable Qingmeng: "..."

Venerable Fortune: "..."

"Why do I get the feeling that she's actually enjoying it?"

"Don't feel it, that's just how it is."

The two remained silent for a moment.

"I think the cultivation world is doomed."

However, Venerable Fuyun couldn't really refute it. Times have changed. If Chi Miao had been born in their era, they all combined might not have been as successful as Chi Miao.

but……

"Can this method truly lead to the enlightenment of the Dao seed?"

He glanced at the prodigies beside him.

At this moment, the prodigies had been tormented beyond recognition by extreme joy and sorrow!

"Hey! I won!"

"What... I didn't get it?!"

"Waaaaaaahh ...

The prodigies closed their eyes, lost in an increasingly intoxicating illusion...

Screams! Creeping in the shadows! Screams! Rolling! Twisting! Screams! Writhing in the shadows! Groans! Spasms! Screams! Violent tremors! Splitting! Screams! A shadowy growl! Twisting!

A frenzy ensued.

He was tortured beyond recognition.

Meanwhile, Chi Miao, holding a photo-recording stone, watched all of this with a smile.

Venerable Fortune: "Excuse me... what are you doing?"

Chi Miao: "It's a rare occasion with such a grand event, so we definitely want to leave everyone with wonderful memories. It's absolutely not something we'd use to threaten them later or as a useful tool!"

"Hehehehehehehehehehehehe!!"

The two venerable ones shuddered.

Yu Wuxin went completely insane.

The scene was quite chaotic at one point!

They've gone mad! They've all gone mad!!

What's even more maddening is... that someone else has attained enlightenment.

More and more people are attaining enlightenment.

The predecessors who slept here awoke one by one.

One after another, they were all dumbfounded by Chi Miao's terrifying actions.

They dared not speak, nor did they dare say anything.

On one occasion, a bold venerable one spoke up.

Paige's words, "How bold!"

This allowed all the predecessors here to experience the most terrifying mental pollution, both before and after their deaths.

After that, they all behaved well.

But this method of enlightenment was truly unheard of for them!

Horrifying and brutal, but directly effective!

Looking at those wisps of Dao essence that were being generated.

They couldn't help but exclaim, "What a thriving scene!"

Only... Venerable Qingmeng began to sweat profusely.

Based on the current situation, only a dozen or so people remain who have not yet attained enlightenment.

Before long, they will all attain enlightenment.

After everyone has attained enlightenment, he will have to fulfill his promise to Chi Miao.

But he never imagined that this little girl, Chi Miao, could actually do it! And so quickly!

He wasn't prepared at all!

Looking at Chi Miao's current methods, and considering that she is in control of the Rebirth Mirror, if she were to realize that he didn't have any top-tier inheritance for her, wouldn't he be doomed on the spot?

He was just making empty promises to Chi Miao!

As a soul, he is now feeling immense pressure and is sweating profusely.

And it was at this moment.

The pair of eyes he feared most looked at him.

"Senior Qingmeng, the mission is almost complete! Are you ready to inherit my legacy?"

Chi Miao's voice is sweet, just like an innocent and kind girl.

Venerable Qingmeng coughed lightly: "Uh... inheritance... um... this inheritance..."

Suddenly, Chi Miao pressed his face against his, their foreheads touching.

"Senior Qingmeng, why are you hesitating? Are you just making empty promises instead of passing on your knowledge? You're a senior in the Tribulation Transcending stage; there's something you can get from you, right?"

"Don't think you can bully me just because I'm a nice girl. If I get angry, I can be really tough."

Qingmeng was sweating profusely, wishing she could disappear into a hole, and she didn't even dare to look: "Um... how could this be?"

Suddenly, the Weeping Sword pierced his groin.

At that moment, the sword was only 0.001 centimeters away from his genitals. If God could give him another chance, he would say to that girl—
