After Failing to Ascend Four Times

Ding Yao was about to ascend, but a heavenly lightning bolt blasted her to bits.

Ding Yao became a ghost cultivator and was about to ascend again, but a soul stone crushed her to death.

Ding Yao seized someone else's body and tried to ascend once more, but her enemies surrounded and killed her.

Ding Yao was reborn with her memories intact. She hid away in the deep mountains and quietly cultivated, but when she was about to ascend again, a ferocious beast swallowed her whole.

Ding Yao decided she was done trying to ascend. She would settle for being a menace and live a long, long life.

But then she discovered that someone had been sabotaging every attempt at ascension. She could have succeeded!

This time, Ding Yao gripped her sword. Whoever you are, if you stand in my way, you die!

Wait, something doesn't seem quite right.

The old bald monk tried to kill her twice. How did that turn into unrequited love?

Her cold, indifferent junior brother only cares about the sect. How could he betray his master and ancestors for her?

She has never even met that Demon King. Why did he start a beast tide just to find her?

Her master from her first life ascended ten thousand years ago. How could he fall to the demonic path and descend to the mortal realm just to find his disciple?

Ding Yao: It's a conspiracy! It's all a conspiracy! As long as I don't ascend, you can't hurt me!

PS:

1. The female lead is an old hand at this.

2. Everyone has a one-sided crush on her. The female lead only wants to ascend.

Pre-release: All the Big Shots' Lives Were Saved by Me

When Ye Qingqing logged into the game, a flash of white light passed, and she transmigrated. She appeared in the beginner village with basic gear, while all her max-level equipment was locked in her system inventory.

A system quest popped up:

[System: Please go to Precipice Cliff and treat a character related to the main storyline.]

[System: Please go to the Taotie Cave and treat a character related to the main storyline.]

[System: Please go to...]

Ye Qingqing's hope rekindled, and she worked hard to get a perfect score on every quest.

Since the task was to treat them, a perfect result meant healing them in both body and mind. And so...

[System: Due to the player's interference, the leader of the Demon Realm never fell to the demonic path. Please sacrifice yourself for the cause, reincarnate as a demonic cultivator, advance the main storyline, and bring about the war between the immortals and demons.]

Later, the war between immortals and demons began. The members of the Immortal Alliance looked at Ye Qingqing, who stood at the head of the opposing forces, and hesitated with their swords raised...

The male lead of a power-leveling fantasy: "Demon, give Qingqing back to me, or I'll slaughter your entire clan!"

The weak-at-first, overpowered-later male lead in the Jinjiang style: "No matter who you are, you can only belong to me."

The male side character, destined to be surrounded by admirers early on and never end up with the female lead, there to be face-slapped and help her level up: "You saved my life, so I'll belong to you forever."

Ye Qingqing: Stop talking and kill me, hurry up!

Theme: As long as you persevere, you will eventually succeed!
