Stealing the female lead's favor turns her from a heartthrob to a universally disliked figure.

As soon as they left, many people followed behind them.

An hour later, they appeared by a lake in the Land of Divine Ruins.

The environment here is quiet and peaceful, with flowers and plants growing all around, creating a unique and beautiful scene.

Just as the Spirit Chef Peak Master was preparing to set up tables and chairs by the lake, the sky suddenly darkened, a fierce wind arose all around, and beams of spiritual light flashed on the ground, causing the entire space to tremble precariously.

"Not good! The illusory seal gate of the Divine Ruins is about to open! We must leave immediately!" The Spirit Chef Peak Master shouted and quickly led everyone away.

Li Qingqing had heard of the Illusory Sealing Gate. It was said that once this sealing gate was opened, the sealed souls of gods and demons and monsters inside would seize the opportunity to break out and kill the people in the Land of Gods and Demons.

This is also one of the greatest dangers when entering the Land of Divine Ruins.

Generally speaking, when the illusory seal gate opens, it is also the time when the vast majority of weak people leave the Divine Ruins.

When several powerful figures gathered in the Divine Ruins, Li Qingqing certainly didn't consider herself to be one of the strongest. So when the Spirit Chef Peak Master said to retreat, she also instructed her disciples to quickly leave the Divine Ruins.

But things didn't go as smoothly as they had hoped. They hadn't run far when they suddenly hit an invisible wall and were forced to stop.

Before they could blow up the wall blocking their way, darkness suddenly descended, and all the light in the sky vanished in an instant.

It was at this moment that Li Qingqing heard a faint yet contemptuous voice.

"Another hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye. I hope these foolish cultivators are stronger than the group from a hundred years ago and can kill more demonic souls. If they can't kill enough demonic souls within a hundred days, then they will have no choice but to use them to refine the Illusion Sealing Array."

Li Qingqing's expression suddenly changed.

That voice... is it the voice of the Gate of the Divine Ruins?

Just then, she heard another, different voice.

"This time, three million demonic souls and three million demonic beasts have been released, more than three times the number from the last hundred years. Should we release them all at once, or disperse them..."

Li Qingqing's expression changed drastically once again.

The gate of illusion has opened, and demonic souls and monsters have appeared. Was this deliberately released by someone?

"Distribute them according to headcount, assigning one to each person. If they can't be killed, they'll remain in the illusory space array. Those who want to come to the Gate of the Divine Ruins to reap benefits and seek opportunities must bear the corresponding dangers and responsibilities..."

After saying that, the sound disappeared.

Li Qingqing snapped out of her daze and quickly reminded everyone, "Everyone be on alert! Demonic souls and monsters are about to appear..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the dark sky suddenly brightened, but it was dim.

"Master, you..." Before Xia Nanfeng could finish speaking, dark shadows of demonic souls appeared all around them, accompanied by a chilling wind.

Before they even got close, Li Qingqing unleashed a Soul-Piercing Rain attack on the nearest demonic soul.

With a loud "boom," three demonic souls were struck and scattered by the scattered soul-piercing raindrops, instantly annihilated.

The Spirit Chef Peak Master didn't care about anything else and made his move almost at the same time.

If they don't make the first move, they'll be at a significant disadvantage.

Once you are on the defensive, you are very likely to pay a bloody price.

The others around also began to use various methods to attack the demon soul, which had just appeared and was still relatively slow to react.

Thanks to their quick reaction and the relatively weak strength of the demonic souls they unleashed, the demonic souls surrounding Li Qingqing and her group were quickly wiped out.

With the destruction of this batch of demonic souls, the invisible wall blocking their path dissipated.

But after they dispersed, their situation became even worse.

Because Luo Liang, Bai Xiangling, and the others who had been with them were nearby and had already been besieged by the demonic souls, resulting in a fierce battle.

In just a short time, some people have been injured, and some have even died tragically.

Bai Xiangling appeared calm as she hid behind Luo Liang, but inside she was screaming with fear.

[System, system, what do I do now? I can't beat these monsters...]

[The host's strength is insufficient to resist the enemy; the killing intent and damage can be transferred to the male protagonist.]

Bai Xiangling nodded almost without thinking.

[Move, move, move quickly!]

The killing intent has been transferred; the side effect is that either you or the male lead will gain ten pounds.

[Don't ask me these questions anymore. It's definitely about making the male lead gain ten pounds.]

Li Qingqing, who was forced to hear all this: "..."

She was now really looking forward to Fu Changye's reaction.

The woman he cherished and pampered without considering the consequences in his past life had no feelings for him whatsoever.

However, she really liked Bai Xiangling's selfishness and ruthlessness.

She wished Bai Xiangling would turn Fu Changye into a fat man weighing hundreds or thousands of pounds, so that he would be unable to move.

It would be even better if I could die of obesity!

Just as she expected, Fu Changye, who was fighting a giant magical beast, was not having an easy time. He had the upper hand just a moment ago, but suddenly he was attacked in the back for some reason. His body trembled and his movements slowed down.

In that moment of hesitation, his aloof and expressionless face was struck by the demon's claws, instantly becoming covered in blood.

To make matters worse, he suddenly gained weight, which made him a little slower and caused him to be a beat too slow when dodging the monsters, resulting in him being sent flying.

Fu Changye was unwilling to accept this. Although he claimed to be at the third level of the Nascent Soul realm, he was actually at the fifth level. He hadn't been in such a sorry state for over a hundred years.

Taking advantage of the fact that no monsters attacked him while he was being knocked away, he quickly used a teleportation talisman and escaped.

Upon landing, he quickly took a medicine to treat his internal injuries.

After weighing the pros and cons, he gritted his teeth, automatically dissipated a layer of his cultivation, consumed spiritual energy and divine soul power, lost a lot of fat, and regained his former aloof and handsome appearance.

Although the price is too high, he is so fat that he can't walk and his reactions are too slow. He might die in the Land of Divine Ruins.

Now, he doesn't plan to kill those demons, but instead intends to go deep into the Land of Divine Ruins to find another invincible treasure.

Coincidentally, after Li Qingqing and the others eliminated the second wave of demonic souls, they also ended up in the same direction as Fu Changye.

……

In a five-colored spiritual pool, a multicolored divine essence fruit tree is slowly ripening.

Nearly ten strange beasts that have been guarding the spirit pool for a hundred years are waiting around it.

Further away, several figures were hidden in the shadows, quietly watching this scene.

When Fu Changye arrived, these figures all looked over at the same time, but did not make a sound.

When Li Qingqing and the others arrived, the people hiding in the shadows were shocked for a moment, then remained silent and hid even better.

Li Qingqing stared at the Divine Essence Fruit Tree in the distance, which was impossible to ignore, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

In his previous life, Fu Changye obtained all nine of these Divine Essence Fruits; it is said that he possessed nine of them all by himself.

But looking at it now, there are only twelve Divine Essence Fruits on the Divine Essence Fruit Tree.

This also shows that Fu Changye is really lucky and has a high level of cultivation.

While she was deep in thought, she suddenly heard Bai Xiangling scream in her mind, completely infatuated.

【Ahhhhh! I saw Fu Changye! He's handsome again! He's handsome again! I knew it was right to deal damage to him. He's a true master; this damage is nothing to him...】

Following Bai Xiangling's gaze, Li Qingqing indeed spotted Fu Changye hiding in the shadows.

She was quite surprised to find that he had lost weight.

Has Bai Xiangling's method of transferring damage stopped working?
