The old man said that people with magical powers or evil monsters will turn into a handful of ashes after death, which are called dirty ashes.

The filthy ashes contain their life energy. Eating them can add to the life lamp and increase lifespan.

If you leave it alone, you will be reborn into the dirty world!

But there is one exception: they grow out of ashes and have human appearance, but not human thoughts.

They advocate atheism and want to subvert the world and overthrow the gods. They dismantle, assemble, combine and create objects, creating life without intelligence for them to enslave.

They call themselves modern people!

Mo Chuan woke up from another world after his death, confused and disoriented. He looked up and saw a yellow flower with a human face, twisting its waist and basking in the sunlight.

Looking down, I saw a centipede with a giant eyeball on its back. The centipede was bigger than a car, and the eyeball was even bigger!

He asked, "Where is this?"

Eyeballs grew out of its body and it spoke in human language: "This is hell!"

(The pace is a bit slow at the beginning, but it gets even more exciting later on, so please watch with confidence.)

I was transported to another world and became an ordinary slime, but I never expected to be hunted down right from the start?

Fortunately, there's always a way out. With the ultimate talent [Lord of Shadows], he successfully avoided being treated like an ordinary roadside creature.

After that, Ives rose through the ranks, raising a cute little girl, flirting with a cunning princess, while the elven princess blushed and imagined things. Even the pure white-haired fox-eared saintess specifically asked to stay with him for life.

Ives said: I didn't want to be the villainous boss, but some mere players actually want to treat him like a monster to be defeated?

Hilarious! Have you ever seen a nuclear bomb? The kind that can make ten in a second!

I've seen the Jade-Faced Grenade King, but have you ever seen the Jade-Faced Nuclear Bomb King?

Player A: "How come the NPCs are leveling up faster than us? I'm reporting this as a rigged game!"

Player B: "How come we were killed before we even saw the boss? How are we supposed to fight it? The other side must be cheating!"

Player C: "What? You're saying the Lord of Shadows has attacked? Then I'll be the first to surrender!"

Chen Hao travels back to 1996, merging the personas of Rodman and Jokic, gaining their maxed-out abilities. Under Chen Hao's brilliance, players who should have shone like Iverson, Kobe, Ray Allen, and Nash pale in comparison. Simultaneously, Chen Hao becomes the biggest obstacle in Jordan's quest for a second Bulls dynasty! "A triple-double? Passing from the top of the key, no-look passes, you call that a center?" "Randomly hitting threes from beyond the arc, what kind of basketball tactic is this?" "Grabbing defensive rebounds, pushing the fast break, and finishing with a coast-to-coast dunk, is this a center's job?" Chen Hao's revolutionary style of play in the NBA sparked...

Princess Ning brought home a young rag-picking cub. Ever since she arrived at the palace, everything has soared: Grandmother's eyesight has improved, the eldest brother's hand has healed, the second brother's limp is no longer severe, the third brother can socialize, and the prince, who had been in a coma for several years, has fully recovered... The cub, armed with her rags, goes on a rampage, redressing injustices, defeating enemies, and protecting the people... Everyone begs for her scraps. The emperor has declared that anyone who dares to bully the cub will be executed along with his entire clan!

Ye Qiming's team was caught in a time-space storm and could not escape. At the critical moment, Ye Qiming burst out his potential to send his team members away, but he himself was swept into the Ark of Tomorrow and became an infected person.

For Chen Lingxu, the ancient Qilin overlord who descended from the heavens, once a Tikkaz, always a Tikkaz. Do you think that transforming from a bunch of aliens into the busty, slender, long-legged, and shapely Sarkaz, Sarkaz, Durin, Anassa, and Oni beauties... can sever ties with what he did as a Tikkaz? For Chen Lingxu, the Primordial Celestial Venerable who once ruled over the Shuangmin, the beastly acts of the past are irrelevant, but the abundance of beauties of today are readily available. Awakened by a green-haired lynx, Chen Lingxu looked at himself in the mirror and exclaimed in shock: "Wine and women have made me so haggard? From this day forward, I will abstain from alcohol!" He then told the lynx, "Please rest assured, AMA-10, I am also actively interrogating the alien female spy today!"

In Konoha Village, there was a small fortune-telling stall with a sign that read: "If you are destined, consult the fortune teller; if not, leave. One divination a day, one tael per divination." The Hyuga clan was renowned for their mastery of divination! Hyuga Renzan sat at the divination platform, calculating the secrets of heaven. "I predict that after your great rise, you will inevitably fall. Becoming Hokage will be the pinnacle of your life." Namikaze Minato thought to himself, "Could I be that unlucky?" "I predict that you are a cursed lone star, destined to bring misfortune to your family, to your father, mother, wife, and children, and to wander the ninja world alone." Uchiha Obito retorted, "Nonsense! I still want to be with Rin!" "I predict that the day you become Hokage will be the day you die!" Shimura Danzo cursed angrily, "I don't believe it, old man!"

Transmigrating into the body of an orphan in Konoha during the final stages of World War II, Shimizu Soseki knows full well that in this cruel ninja world, brute force alone won't last long. Possessing the soul of a high-IQ criminal, he decides to utilize his "professional skill"—acting. Thus, a seemingly innocent but inwardly unyielding "hypocrite" is born.

At the Ninja Academy, he excelled in theory and was a "genius" in taijutsu, easily winning over Asuma as his subordinate and displaying just the right amount of gentleness and talent towards Kurenai Yuhi. In an era when Konoha yearned for heroes, he passionately and deeply interpreted the Will of Fire, speaking earnestly and sincerely, becoming the perfect young man in the eyes of the Third Hokage, the "Light of Konoha," known for his "profound thinking."

However, beneath this dazzling halo lies the shady dealings of a "disgrace of Konoha": he cleverly orchestrated the public humiliation of an old ninja who withheld his pension, portraying himself as a wronged genius "forced to defend himself"; his apprenticeship with Tsunade relied on a "chance encounter" and "heart-to-heart talk" that precisely struck at her sore spot; during the Third Shinobi World War, he "predicted" the Iwa ninja's ambush and "outsmarted" the Sand ninja's stronghold, earning him a reputation, yet secretly he "chancely encountered" the Akatsuki trio in the Land of Rain, using his superb acting skills and a "peace suggestion" laced with his own agenda to sow the seeds of division; even on the night of the Uchiha Clan massacre, he transformed into Itachi's "life mentor," "rationalizing" the massacre and binding a genius to his own cause.

Flying Thunder God Technique, sealing techniques, a unique genjutsu system, multiple identities including "Mirage"... his strength and shadow grow in tandem. He launched the "Gallery of Genjutsu: Infinite Library," which benefits the ninja world, but is actually a tool to steal the wisdom of all beings; he stirs up trouble, intensifies conflicts, and fishes in troubled waters, all to consolidate resources and power in his own hands.
