[The main story will be completed this month. Extra chapters will come whenever inspiration strikes. A new story opens January 1, so please check out the author's upcoming works!]
A Higher-Dimensional Main God has descended. Infinite-game dungeons are tearing through dimensional barriers, constantly drawing in new players.
The moment Ye Jinyan entered the game, he heard the glorious story of how the previous owner of the System Shop had died heroically during a terrorist attack.
Then, under the Main God's arrangements, he was delighted to receive a System Shop of his very own.
Ye Jinyan: !
Wait, dude.
Do I look like I can fight?
·
The shelves are bare and the spatial passageways are in ruins. He can only maintain a semblance of peace with his evil-god boss by completing more transactions.
Ye Jinyan: Well, as it happens, I'm pretty good at grinding!
And so, from a deranged hidden village to a sinister toy factory, to the buried Kingdom of Golden Sands...
This mysterious merchant's footsteps appear in more and more dungeons.
In the boundless darkness and danger, a cozy little amber lamp glows, selling all manner of strange items.
Miraculous spells that bring the dead back to life, potions that boost your stats, powerful weapons beyond all common sense...
You can take any of them, as long as you can pay the price.
Money, years of your life, even your desires.
But you have no other choice. In the abyss, he is the only one willing to lend a hand.
And the god who looks down upon all things lets a contemptuous smile fall when he sees the ants' futile struggles and performances.

Ye Jinyan: I'm so happy! I met a real saint (idiot) today and he cleared out all my old stock. Such a polite young man, and so nice!
Player, trembling: D-Do you know who he is?
Ye Jinyan: Who?
Player, in a whisper: The one who twisted the previous shopkeeper's head off.
Ye Jinyan: ???

Reader's Guide:
1. Please do not imitate the characters' dangerous behavior, even if it looks tempting.
2. There will be no livestreams in the story, but there may be forums. Don't worry about the formatting.
3. Neither the gong nor the shou had a normal childhood, so their thinking differs from ordinary people's. Don't take after them.
Upcoming story: "Impostors Aren't Allowed to Play Rules-Based Horror!"
Shen Zeyu, a low-level wage slave at the UMF Foundation, recently found a roommate.
The roommate looked perfectly human, and was a handsome young man.
It would have been even better if he hadn't turned into liquid in the middle of the night, squeezed through the window bars, and oozed into Shen Zeyu's room.
Through tears, Shen Zeyu taught him the basics of how to act like a person.
After two and a half years of living together, Teacher Shen, who believed in teaching everyone without discrimination, became a celebrated master instructor in the impostor community.
*
Listening to his roommate's jumbled human speech, with its scrambled word order and missing subjects and predicates, Shen Zeyu decided to change his teaching plan and organize some community service activities.
Just then, the Foundation's higher-ups began calling him nonstop to recruit people for an expedition team exploring a rules-horror domain. If he didn't fill the roster, he could look forward to being fired.
Shen Zeyu stared at his roommate. "Are you afraid of fire?"
His roommate shook his head.
He asked again, "Are you afraid of dying?"
His roommate's head spun a full three hundred and sixty degrees.
Still refusing to give up, he asked, "Are you and your kind afraid of being exploited by capitalists?"
His roommate's neck, twisted like a pretzel, tilted to one side.
With a grand sweep of his hand, Shen Zeyu signed himself and all his good impostor students up for the rules-horror domain expedition team.
*
After an expedition.
Shen Zeyu: Write up your summaries and submit your field reports within three days. Today's homework: In the rules-horror domain we explored, what are some things humans must not do?
Student 1: Humans must not use the bathroom alone at night.
Student 2: Humans must not breathe.
Roommate: I am an impostor. You are my master.
Shen Zeyu: Hm???
*
They say being a master is a high-risk profession, and that goes for modern-day teachers too.
Beneath the stars, the roommate who had lived by his side day and night finally shed his false human form, revealing his true self completely.
It was the rhythm of the universe, the primal color beyond dimensions. The radiant deity came into the world with an endless hunger, an insatiable craving, in pursuit of vibrant life.
Boundless colors filled his world.
Shen Zeyu, making a run for it with his bucket: I'm doomed!!!
Thesis: Give it everything you've got, and have no regrets, win or lose
Killing it is the greatest invention in the world! Everyone is alive and here, which is really great. I finished reading it in one go, and I felt like I still had something to say. In the end, Xiaoye and Xiaobai were together, but this Xiaobai was not the Xiaobai who had been with Xiaoye all the time. This was a point that I felt particularly regretful about. But if the extra chapter is regarded as the real ending, then Xiaobai and Xiaoye are together, and there is only one Xiaobai, which is really great. I can say this is my personal favorite book of the year. Although it's a chapter late, here it is, the end of the story.
So great, so shocking... Even if the mayfly shakes the tree, I will go on. This is the courage and hymn of mankind.
So much love ~ The little couple is so sweet [Panda Head] [Panda Head] [Panda Head] like it ~ I suggest you do more of this kind of extras, hehe 😏
