The improved female villains regained their memories.

"Damn it!!"

As the array activated, the light sphere let out a miserable cry and completely withered away.

Ling Tiandu stood there, his expression shifting between light and dark.

"The system reacted because one of the escaped subsystems received energy and fed back to it."

"Only Tong Chenguang can replenish energy. I see. That guy hid next to Renqi."

The token disappeared, and the world in his palm reappeared. Ling Tiandu, having deduced the ultimate truth, breathed a sigh of relief.

"This guy made a wrong move."

"The split subsystem thought it had a good relationship with the human chess team, but little did it know that the human chess team's tolerance for it had its limits."

"Fine, since you're out here, you can be my pawns and help me restrict the other players. Anyway, no matter what happens to any of you, I'll be the one who benefits."

In reality, Ling Tiandu only faces two crises.

The first crisis was the siege by the female villains. Among them, the seventh, eighth and ninth female villains were the most troublesome. Although the identities of the fifth and sixth female villains were unknown, she could still make some deductions and get some hints from them (for example, Xu Baxian was the fifth female villain). As for the last three, even Ling Tiandu could not use deduction to calculate any results.

The second crisis is the prophetic poem about an unseen person being crowned king. If not handled properly, the future outcome will lead to this.

Compared to these two crises, escaping one subsystem is nothing.

"The origin of the system is related to Tongchen Light, and Tongchen Light is currently in Su Murong's hands. I still need to use this to complete my subsequent plans, so I'm not in a hurry to bring the system into my hands."

Based on the refinement of several generations of chosen ones, the system's function has become clear: it is mainly used to arrange human chess pieces, write scripts, restrict female villains, and replace the protagonist with a soul from another world when the Heavenly Dao absorbs the protagonist into the gate.

After Ling Tiandu became the new Chosen One, he explored the energy behind the system and discovered that it was the same as the energy of Tongchen Light, and that the two were energies of the same origin.

Every chosen one receives help from the system, but when it came to Ling Tiandu, the system not only refused to help but also caused trouble. If it weren't for it, Ling Tiandu wouldn't have been under so much pressure.

The frequent malfunctions of the Heavenly Dao's warnings, the system's refusal to help, the ominous prophetic poems, the traitors who may have already infiltrated the future or even now, the protagonists with their own agendas, and the villains' attacks on a scale larger than ever before—any one of these would have been enough to give the chosen one of destiny a headache, let alone all of these problems combined.

But Ling Tiandu did not lose heart. She calmly analyzed the pros and cons, and from this, she opened up a new path for the future and found a way to win.

"Fate... Ah, so be it, let's fight it out then."

Although Ling Tiandu appears delicate and frail, her eyes are burning with fire.

If the mysterious person were here, he would definitely exclaim in surprise, because this is the same obsessive fire as Wen Shihan.

“I am Ling Tiandu, someone even the heavens would envy. Since I bear this name and the destiny of the protagonist, I will never admit defeat.”

The former villain of the main world, now the chosen one, still fights fiercely against the female villains who are blessed by the will of heaven.

Time: Now

Location: Tianren Mountain.

"The Soul of Sword is about to be born."

Song Panning looked at the stone embryo in front of her and said.

Xu Baxian, clad in full armor, sat calmly to the side, his subordinates already deployed and lying in wait around.

Upon hearing Song Panning's voice, he opened his eyes and said, "Sir, shall we make our move now?"

"Wait a little longer. When the Sword Soul Heart is born, a rain of swords will surely fall from the sky. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong."

As she spoke, she suddenly frowned slightly and said, "Someone has broken in."

Xu Baxian stood up and said, "I'll have them go."

"No, let's not rush."

Song Panning looked at Xu Baxian and smiled slightly: "I have already set up an array on the mountain. Not to mention celestial immortals and earth immortals, even true immortals would not be able to escape in a short time. We still have time."

Xu Baxian looked at the woman in front of him. She still had that confident look on her face. Many times before, when breaking the ancient formation of Abuhantu, returning to the city to exchange carriages to confuse the assassins, surrounding Zuixianlou, etc., she would show this look.

"Since you are confident, sir, I will not let them make a move."

He sat down again and closed his eyes to rest.

Song Panning nodded outwardly, but secretly she was probing the situation inside the formation.

[It seems that Yang Pingsheng trusts Wen Shihan more than the other female villains.]

[That one without the aura of an immortal... must be Su Murong. Although he doesn't have the aura of an immortal, he has the White Tiger and Black Tortoise guarding him. He truly lives up to his reputation as a villain.]

As expected, the Heavenly Guardian Sect also sent people: two True Immortals and one Celestial Immortal.

Song Panning frowned slightly. The fact that the Heavenly Guardian Sect had sent out two True Immortals at once showed how incredibly wealthy and powerful they were.

For a nation, celestial immortals are already considered strategic-level weapons, while true immortals are living cultural relics and national treasures. Let alone using them, just revealing their names is enough to make people suffocate. A nation with even one is enough to unify the world, let alone a sect like the Heavenly Guardian Sect that sent out two for a mission.

Are you also interested in the Sword Soul Heart? Or are you just following the female villain's style?

Song Panning lowered her eyes and subtly used her spiritual energy where Xu Baxian couldn't see.

The image in my mind quickly locked onto the person I cared about most.

Yang Pingsheng.

The main function of the Dream Array of Past Lives is to trap people in a sea of ​​dreams from which they cannot escape. If there is a past life, then the scenes from that life will be recreated.

Yang Pingsheng, you've finally arrived. Now that you've entered this formation, let me see what I didn't finish looking at before.

Previously, when Yang Pingsheng visited Song Panning's secret base, his secrets were almost exposed.

Although she failed that time, Song Panning became curious, and now that she has this opportunity, she'd like to investigate further.

The mist, Yang Pingsheng's dream.

Towering mountains and forests, a cool breeze blowing, Yang Pingsheng was cultivating in a spacious grove.

boom!

A wisp of earthy yellow spiritual energy shot out from his fist, striking the tree branch heavily.

The branch trembled and shook slightly, but no damage was caused.

Yang Pingsheng stood still, watching quietly.

Immediately afterwards, the entire tree began to wither and die.

"He's become an immortal." Yang Pingsheng sighed, his voice filled with sorrow.

"Hey, hey, hey, you're really asking for it."

The ball of light flew out and circled around Yang Pingsheng.

Although it was sarcastic, its tone couldn't hide its amazement: "How old are you? You've already reached the Earth Immortal realm through self-cultivation. Not to mention that move you just made already had the shadow of an immortal killing move. I never thought that without any assistance, you had already touched the threshold of an immortal killing move. Kid, you are truly a born cultivator!"

Yang Pingsheng ignored it, walked to the side and continued to circulate his spiritual energy to develop his killing move.

The system couldn't help but sigh at Yang Pingsheng's diligent efforts.

Yang Pingsheng doesn't actually need to work hard; the system can extract energy from the main system and directly grant him cultivation.

Firstly, there was a concern that Yang Pingsheng might become uncontrollable once he gained power. Secondly, Yang Pingsheng's mission was rather unique, requiring him to constantly travel between worlds, and each world travel would deplete his strength. If Yang Pingsheng relied on his own cultivation, it was uncertain whether he would be able to demonstrate his power when the plot required it.

This is only the second life, and everything is just beginning. The system has already received the script for this life. There are places where he needs to show his strength, but not many. If Yang Pingsheng cultivates on his own, the script is very likely to go astray. However, the system has no intention of interfering, after all, it had promised before that Yang Pingsheng could follow his own ideas.

Let him go. The kid hasn't experienced the harsh realities of society and insists on gambling on the villain's humanity. Let him get a beating, and he'll naturally behave afterward.

However, it still had some doubts, so it flew to Yang Pingsheng's side and asked, "Pingsheng, you are already an Earth Immortal, why do you still need to work so hard? If you want to stop Luo Benmo, you can try now, right?"

Yang Pingsheng opened his eyes to look at it and shook his head.

"I need to consolidate my Earth Immortal realm. Right now, I have the cultivation of an Earth Immortal, but I don't have any killing moves or even an immortal artifact. If I challenge her, she will not give me another chance."

The twelve-year-old's eyes held a thoughtful maturity. The system thought for a moment, somewhat puzzled: "I understand even less now. If you need power, I'll give it to you. Why bother cultivating so hard yourself? Luo Benmo is a monster. No matter how high your cultivation talent is, you can't fight a monster."

"Give me power, and will you still let me follow my own ideas?"

"Of course not."

The system drawled, "If you accept my help, you have to follow my ideas. So-called parents are all like that, aren't they?"

"...You're not my parents."

Yang Pingsheng said no more and continued his cultivation.

The system seemed to be dazzled by Yang Pingsheng's efforts and subconsciously continued to ask, "You're so engrossed in cultivation, you don't actually like it, do you?"

"why not?"

Isn't it boring?

Yang Pingsheng shook his head, and smiled before saying anything more.

It was a pure, beautiful, and heartfelt laugh.

"It's not boring at all; on the contrary, I think it's great."

For the first time, his eyes lit up as he looked at his palms, watching the spiritual energy swirling within them, eventually absorbing into his body and becoming his own power.

"Humans, in essence, are all about seeking peace of mind."

"You must have seen my world before, right? There, many people are seeking peace of mind."

"In my world, there is no such power to transcend the ordinary. For peace of mind, people must band together, either by joining an organization or by establishing one."

"Peace of mind requires support. In my world, money can bring peace of mind, but it can also lead to its loss. Power can bring peace of mind, but it can also lead to its loss. People don't have a clear answer when it comes to peace of mind."

"But this world has the answer."

"That is strength."

Yang Pingsheng looked up at the system and smiled slightly: "If my strength were unfathomable, even stronger than the Heavenly Dao, I suppose I wouldn't have been chosen by you, would I?"

"Ah, this..."

The system fell silent.

It may never understand Yang Pingsheng's feelings at this moment. Seeking peace of mind is what mortals do, while immortals pursue realms and strength, either to rule the world or to become the number one in the world. Few would say it's for peace of mind.

Look at those female villains, each of them has their own reasons for pursuing power, but Yang Pingsheng's reason is actually for peace of mind.

That's a really strange reason.

It recalled Yang Pingsheng's past life, when it followed pre-set commands to travel to countless worlds in search of someone who could become a human chess piece.

In order to find such a person, it traveled through many worlds, and finally found Yang Pingsheng in a world where all spiritual energy had been lost.
