The Shady Summoning Park in Another World

[The Fourth Calamity] + [Dark Cultivation] + [Mastermind Behind the Scenes] + [Farming and Infrastructure]

Yun Mo is forcibly summoned to the cultivation world. He thinks he’ll become a domineering protagonist, starting with his beautiful master, but on the day he sets foot on the path of cultivation, his ribs and Dao foundation are forcibly ripped out. Only then does he realize the truth:

Transmigration is kidnapping. He was dragged here to be raised like livestock!

After five years lying low, Yun Mo bides his time and strikes back, obtaining a Dao-foundation divine ability that summons beings from another world. He calls forth The Fourth Calamity!

His original plan is to treat the players like livestock, harvest their cultivation and Dao foundations, and use them to aid his cultivation and overturn heaven and earth.

Except...

“Isn’t something off about the way these players are acting?”

From the players’ perspective:

“What? ‘Creation of Ten Thousand Things’?”

“Fully immersive virtual reality? Zero pay-to-win? Dark cultivation?”

Players who receive beta invitations enter the game and take a look. No, this game is way too fun:

“Here, you can enjoy the freedom of building a cultivation sect from scratch;”

“You can also let your imagination run wild. Five-element nail art, building Gundams and Ultraman, whatever wild thing you can think of, you can make!”

“And there are even more hidden mechanics for you to explore!”

As the players recite the promotional spiel, a figure in a dark robe steps into the frame:

“Look, standing before us is the senior disciple of our Shu Mountain Sect. He has four times the protein of beef!”

Yun Mo’s gaze darkens. So you’re going to run that meme into the ground, huh? Let’s see if I can’t teach you a lesson!
