The Glass Immortal Maiden stood by the seashore in a trance, her thoughts drifting far away.
The sudden return to calm in the Misty Seas quickly captured everyone’s attention.
The Demon Suppression Magi from outside of Tengzhou City set out one after another, peering ahead at the coastline with trepidation and uncertainty.
Previously restless and continuously exuding strange auras, the Misty Seas now returned to calm, as if the malevolent spirits within the mist had vanished.
This bizarre occurrence alarmed everyone.
People looked at the suddenly tranquil mist, whispering among themselves and engaging in endless speculation about the conditions within the mist.
Just then, the distant sound of a dragon’s roar arose from within the mist.
The prolonged sound of the dragon’s chant seemed to disregard the distance, continuously spreading outwards from the mist to the shore.
However, among all the present Demon Suppression Magi, only those with top cultivation levels could hear this sound.
The majority heard nothing at all.
And those Demon Suppression Magi who did hear the dragon’s chant all wore subtly changed expressions.
“A dragon’s roar? Is there a real dragon in the mist?”
In today’s world, where True Immortals do not appear and deities are hidden, it is a Dharma-Ending Age of declining cultivation.
The so-called true dragons had long since become myth.
Yet now, the sound of a dragon’s chant came from within the mist…
Shen Tujing’s face underwent a sudden change, looking incredulously at the Misty Sea ahead.
“A real dragon in the mist?!”
As a disciple taken a thousand years ago by the Real Person of Qingye, Shen Tujing, who had cultivated arduously for a millennium and already transcended the mundane, heard the dragon’s chant all too clearly.
The divine charm and aura it contained were incomparable to any ordinary flood dragons found in rivers and lakes.
In today’s Dharma-Ending Age, for a true dragon to actually appear in the world…
Shen Tujing gazed at the mist in astonishment, and in the next second, he saw a massive mirage emerge above the mist.
Within the ghostly and sinister city, a vast spectral army marched out like a military force, the atmosphere solemn and the presence formidable.
Amidst this army of ghostly shadows, stood an Immortal Maiden, reigning over the winds, high up in the void.
She stood quietly in the vacuum, surrounded by layers of surging mist, looking dignified and solemn.
Yet her appearance and temperament were enough to dazzle onlookers. The ghastly chill of the mist only served to highlight her radiant beauty.
She stood in the void, commanding the mighty army of ghostly shadows to march out of the city, and beyond the city was a thick fog…
This grand and spectacular scene lasted for about half a minute.
In the end, the mirage disappeared and the Misty Sea became completely tranquil once more.
Everyone by the seashore also fell silent simultaneously…
Elders from the Refinement Demon Sect by the seaside, looking astonished at the huge scene that suddenly appeared and then quickly vanished within the mist, were filled with doubts.
Ge Hongshan, an expert in ancient myths, exclaimed in surprise, “Is this a mirage?
It’s said that mirages often appear above the Misty Sea, believed to be images projected from a world within the mist.”
“However, the mirages recorded in history always depicted ancient, crumbling cities, ruined relics, or mysterious immortal mountains…”
“To see mirages like this one, with vast ghostly shadows and specific figures, is unprecedented.”
“Could it be that there is a maiden commanding endless evil spirits within the mist, trying to come forth?”
Ge Hongshan voiced this conjecture.
The maiden bore very distinct draconian features, and her attire matched the dragons described in legends.
Following the dragon’s chant from the mist, such a mirage appeared…
Ge Hongshan chuckled dryly and said, “In this age, where True Immortals are absent and gods and demons are hidden, if a Dragon God were to truly appear, our days in the Demon Path would become rather difficult…”
Rumors of a Dragon God Fairy in the Misty Sea swiftly spread throughout the Cultivation World.
Whether from the righteous or the Demon Path, the number of people who had witnessed the mirage by the seaside was too great to suppress the news.
Some even went so far as to draw the appearance of the Dragon God Fairy, replicating the scene from the mirage on scrolls and selling them widely.
Temples offering to the Dragon God Fairy even emerged among the populace, praying for peace.
But after that, the Misty Sea returned to complete tranquility, free of any unusual occurrences.
The mist no longer bore the sound of the dragon’s chant, and ghostly armies ceased to emerge; the so-called mirages seemed to be just another illusory image.
After all, the sea mist devoured cultivators, and even the strongest of cultivators would get lost upon stepping into it.
Even if there truly was a Dragon Goddess in the mist, it was unlikely she would come out, right?
As time passed, everything within the mist remained unchanged, and cultivators gradually left.
The great sects of both the righteous and demon paths, besides stationing some disciples to observe the status of the Misty Sea from the shore, no longer cared about that strange mirage.
However, the name and image of the Dragon Goddess, with the return of the cultivators, gradually spread to farther places.
The outer sect of the Refinement Demon Sect…
“What the hell is this? Where did you get this painting?” Li Muyang held the “Dragon God Fairy Ghoul Mastery Painting” in his hands, his expression astonished.
He looked up in bewilderment at his younger sister beside him.
But he saw the girl giggling and saying, “Brother, you stay up in the mountains farming every day and have no idea what’s happening outside. The Dragon Goddess has become quite popular recently.”
“Remember when the elders from our sect all went to the seaside? They said there was some strange activity in the Misty Sea.”
“In the end, nothing happened in the fog; everyone just saw a segment of the fake mirage…”
Li Yuechan informed her elder brother of the recent news from the sect and explained cheerfully.
“This ‘Dragon God Fairy Ghoul Mastery Painting’ is the scene from that mirage, it’s well-painted, isn’t it?”
“It’s said that offering to the Dragon Goddess can turn one’s luck around.”
Li Yuechan said, “However, I don’t believe in that. The main thing is that this painting is very popular recently. I’ve hoarded a bunch of them, and in a few days, I’ll flip them and make a good profit!”
The girl shared her money-making plan with great enthusiasm with Li Muyang.
But Li Muyang just looked at the Dragon Goddess and the map of her controlling myriad ghosts in the painting with an astonished gaze.
After sending his thrifty sister away, Li Muyang opened the system interface, feeling doubtful and uncertain.
“Is there really a Dragon Goddess in the world? And she looks exactly like the one in the game?”
“The ‘Luoyang City’ I visited before, couldn’t it be this very ghost city…”
Shit!
He suddenly remembered that the Dragon Goddess from the game had said she would come to find him to express her gratitude.
At the time, Li Muyang didn’t think much of it—it was just game plot, after all.
Additionally, since he didn’t manage to clear the game for a long time after giving a fake name, he decided to give it a try and told the Dragon Goddess his real name, revealing himself as Li Muyang, in order to clear the game.
Unexpectedly, the game was cleared right after he revealed his real name.
Now thinking back…
“If there really is a Dragon Goddess in the world, and she wants to find me to express gratitude…”
Li Muyang gritted his teeth, feeling a bit of a chill.
“With just a name, she shouldn’t be able to find me, right?”
Meeting online friends in person could be a disaster.
Especially since the real-life Li Muyang was just a small fry, who knew what the Dragon Goddess would do when her expectations upon meeting him in person were shattered.
Without sufficient strength, Li Muyang didn’t want to meet the Dragon Goddess.
“Uh… If the Dragon Goddess really exists, then the damned system’s previous two games…”
Couldn’t the Glass Immortal Maiden and Little Wild Grass also be real?
Li Muyang suddenly felt guilty and thought carefully.
Fortunately, when he played the game in his hurry to clear it, he didn’t take advantage of the game’s freedom to engage in any sense-breaking 18+ actions that might offend the two female leads.
At this thought, Li Muyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“It seems that in the future, I must be more cautious when playing games,”
Li Muyang murmured to himself.
Such self-revealing of his true name, he must never do it again. Fortunately, the Dragon Goddess was kind. Even if she really came to return the favor, it would probably be a good thing.
Even if she was disappointed after their encounter, she wouldn’t do anything to Li Muyang.
But this system’s games could actually interfere with reality…
Li Muyang narrowed his eyes, suddenly feeling that there were many more possibilities to explore.
This system was more powerful than he had imagined. Discover exclusive content at M-V-L
A system that could influence reality through games—if operated well, would definitely be of great use.
