Su Mu transmigrated to a High Martial city and became a broken ancient god on the verge of losing his soul in an abandoned Taoist temple.
The mountain gate was in ruins, the Special Security Bureau had plastered it with seals, and outside, a mechanical-modification cult and bio-mutants watched with hungry eyes.
At the critical moment, Su Mu activated the Arrival System and disguised the passage between the two worlds as a hardcore metaverse game, forcibly summoning the Fourth Calamity from Blue Star!
Bodies forged from spiritwood, pain reduced by eighty percent, unlimited revivals.
The entire High Martial world's understanding of reality was shattered in an instant!
Beta tester: "Holy crap! This bio-BOSS has a health bar! Quick, strap an explosion-proof talisman to me. I'm going to clip into the model and blow myself up!"
Flesh cultist: "Run, you lunatics! They're still laughing after being torn in half, and they're even biting through throats to steal my prosthetic limbs!"
Beta tester: "The devs are too generous! This polluted leyline zone is full of high-grade ore. Brothers, throw your lives at it and charge in to mine the whole place dry!"
Special Security Bureau officer: "This is ridiculous! How did this gang of odd-jobbers clear in three days a forbidden zone so dangerous our elite squad was wiped out there?!"
Beta tester: "Black-market old-timer, how much for these modified Gauss cannons and scrap-metal wreckage? If that's not enough, we'll go wipe out a couple more strongholds for cash!"
Black-market magnate: "Please, honored Daoist masters, have mercy! You've dismantled the heretics' main altar down to the last part. We really can't afford to buy any more!"
Blue Star's major guilds fought tooth and nail for testing slots, while the overlords of the other world collectively fell apart.
When the great powers trembled and knelt outside the mountain gate, Su Mu sat high upon his divine throne, his body of flawless white jade radiating authority across the heavens:
"Wherever the sun and moon shine, there lies the territory of my Daoist temple. Anyone who dares trespass on the mountain gate will be killed without exception!"
