Arthur Thorne rose from his throne of brass, corpses, and pipes, donning a crown forged from alchemy, steam, and blood, and taking up the scythe entwined with fate. He looked up. The twinkling stars in the sky were all enemies. But before that... Arthur Thorne, newly transported, faced a grave problem: how to hollow out his body and survive when alchemy, medicine, and conventional supernatural powers proved ineffective.

[Villain] [Half Behind the Scenes] [Darkness] [Half Group Portrait]

What's your typical villain?

A big boss with a host of smaller bosses, of course!

Medical examiner Levi opens his eyes and finds himself as Hick, a weak apprentice in the wizarding world.

Just as he's lost in the wonders of this fantastical life, a mysterious "experimental system" suddenly activates—it doesn't teach magic, but rather focuses on forbidden things.

While other wizards fret over the horrific side effects of their experiments and hesitate, Levi's focus is solely on "parameters to be optimized.

" "Fix whatever's broken!"

The system grants him unparalleled power over modifications. Flesh weakness? Energy clashes? Mental collapse? Through repeated

, frantic, and meticulous transformations, these fatal flaws are forcibly erased or twisted into new "characteristics." Thus, forbidden subjects, once destined for uncontrollable destruction or waste, are reborn under the system's power.

Every successful experiment that breaks the impossible means he gains another (or a group of) powerful minions who terrify the entire wizarding world.

He could enhance himself without side effects!

These monsters, created and "corrected" by his own hands, would become his most loyal minions and legions.

"If I modify them enough, I'll eventually reach the top," he believed.

He, and the terrifying army of forbidden experimental subjects behind him, would become a living scourge enveloping the entire wizarding world.

He was the source of all terror and chaos.

The river of history has undergone an unknown transformation, sinking into a reflection of the present. Ancient Celestial Beings have resurrected from the past, pursuing forbidden secrets. Their mighty powers use time as a chessboard, all living beings as pieces, forging a plan for eternity.

Familiar legends, folkloric ghosts, and even once-admired heroes have been distorted and transformed into strange creatures that have sunk into the abyss of the past.

Once-wise and mighty emperors have become evil dragons, hovering over their empires, using their aging and massive bodies to crave the fruit of immortality, their ambergris transformed into demons that devour the common people.

Heroes fallen in battle, illuminated by candlelight, resurrected from a mountain of corpses, establishing the Corpse Reincarnation Royal Court

. By the banks of the Red River, an ancient transmigrator sighs at the moon.

The Horse-Faced Silkworm Lady, the Star Tai Sui, the ancient Heavenly Court, the Silver Dynasty... countless realms of disease vie for passage beyond the present.

Only those who travel through history can reverse the flow of time, excise the transformation, and extract historical skills and relics from the river of history. Even worse, they can usurp the achievements of the most ancient heroes and etch their own legacy into the past.

After resigning and returning home, Jiang Yan accidentally stumbles upon a Rice God of Wealth ritual and overhears the lamentations of the River of History. This awakens his historical talent: the embryo of the Dark Mother Goddess, nurturing countless offspring. Transmuting all disease into nourishment, she nurtures spiritual pets, abilities, memories, rules, and other "offspring" under her control.

From the Corpse Reincarnation Court, he nurtures the Corpse Reincarnation Phoenix; from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he nurtures the God of Peace...

Gazing at the decaying River of History, Jiang Yan sighs,

"If I could transform history into nourishment, perhaps I could truly nurture a..."

"Forbidden Immortal God!"

After traveling through another world, the people here rely on cultivating strangeness in their bodies to practice.

The various organs of the ghost have different abilities, potentials, and side effects. It all depends on luck.

If you are lucky, you can choose a strange body with small side effects and high potential.

Bad luck cost him half his life, and his potential is just average.

However,

Ye Yan made an astonishing discovery that he could understand the detailed clues of each part.

It can even exempt you from cost control!

……

Peeping into the mystery——

Arm: [Potential: (Poor) Fingers are like cold iron, armor is like a steel fork.

Side effects (arms become cold and need to be relieved by applying corpse oil, arms rot and have a terrible stench) Danger: Moderate]

Internal organs: [Potential: (General) Heartbeat is as fast as thunder and explosion is as fast as lightning.

Side effects (slow heartbeat, need to cut the scalp and flesh, squeeze the heart, assist blood supply) Danger: Very high]

Double pupils: [Potential: (Excellent) Eyes as sharp as a torch, able to see through a mustard seed.

Side effects (fear of light, loss of vision during the day, need to eat human eyes, extremely itchy on weekdays. Remember, scratching the eyeballs will cause bruises and skin ulcers) Danger: Slightly unrememberable]

The above side effects can all be learned by using the Lifetime Exemption. Do you understand?

……

Ye Yan smiled knowingly. While others were cautious, fearing that they would be killed by the side effects, Ye Yan got whatever he wanted.

The narrow road leads to Rome. You walk on the sea of ​​fire, and I walk on the bridge.

……

As his cultivation level improved, Ye Yan was shocked to discover that this world not only had one strange way of cultivating immortals, but also hid many more jaw-dropping things.

Spirit insects cultivate immortality, corpses cultivate immortality, using one's body to refine puppets...the secrets of this world are gradually revealed.

Upon reincarnating in a world where chaos was rampant, Shen Changqing became a member of the Great Qin Demon Suppression Division. Kill monsters and upgrade [Thirteen Cross Practice] to perfection! Kill powerful demons and break the limits of Martial Arts! KILL ––

Several years later, Shen Changqing became the Guardian of the human race. All of the monsters and demons bow down before him! “As long as I am here, the human race will never be destroyed!”
