Chapter 169: Found You
【Today's Divination: Extremely Unlucky. Avoid Everything.】
【Remaining Lifespan: 6 years】
Chen Huai’an ignored his ominous fortune and immediately opened the customer service system.
"Help me divine who is the mastermind behind the demonic cultivators in the Zhongzhou Secret Realm."
【This is your first divination of the day. This divination is free.】
【Warning: Due to the player’s Fortune Loss reaching 1,000 layers, to prevent accidental death, this divination has been rejected. Please reduce your Fortune Loss first!】
Chen Huai’an’s eye twitched.
He had already experienced the hell that was 1,000 layers of Fortune Loss.
Everything he did required extreme caution.
Would you believe that even in a containment facility, he had managed to eat food with bugs in it?
And when he tried to switch plates, he still ended up with food poisoning?
And then he clogged the toilet…?
Only for the water supply to be cut off that day…?
And when he finally went out to get toilet paper, he stepped on his shoelace and faceplanted…?
If an ordinary person had 1,000 layers of Fortune Loss, they wouldn’t survive an hour.
But Chen Huai’an was stubborn.
He was a cultivator.
Even when he broke his nose from the fall, his body healed instantly—so it seemed like nothing was wrong.
But only he knew how miserable this was.
To put it bluntly—
If he hadn’t had 1,000 layers of Fortune Loss, he might have never encountered the Corpse King, Di Jiang.
The Bearded Guy wouldn’t have died.
Di Jiang could have revived somewhere else, rather than right in his face.
All of this was because of his sh*tty luck.
"Tell me—how do I remove the Fortune Loss state?"
**【Performing good deeds can reduce Fortune Loss. Depending on the merit, you can clear 1 to 1,000 layers. Alternatively, you can remove it by paying:
First 100 layers: ¥1,000 per layer
101-400 layers: ¥10,000 per layer
401-700 layers: ¥100,000 per layer
701-1,000 layers: ¥1,000,000 per layer.】**
"One million per layer?! Why don’t you just rob me?!"
Chen Huai’an’s screech distorted the phone speaker.
"I killed the Corpse King, Di Jiang! How does that not count as a good deed?! Do you know how many people would have died if he was still alive?!"
【Di Jiang’s resurrection caused over 50,000 deaths. You inherited this karma, nullifying any merit you earned.】
"THAT’S how you calculate merit?!"
Chen Huai’an raged.
But then…
He couldn’t be angry anymore.
Justice delayed was not justice at all.
50,000 people had already died.
If he wanted true merit, he should have prevented their deaths in the first place.
A "hero" was a title anyone could claim.
But a true hero…
Had to be perfect.
"Fine. I understand. I’ll pay."
He wasn’t going to spend everything to clear all 1,000 layers.
Just clearing the first 100 was enough—so he could at least divine information.
The rest… he’d earn back through other means.
Reality was in chaos—there were evil spirits appearing every day.
He could grind his Fortune Loss down bit by bit.
"Tell me—who is behind the demonic cultivators in the Zhongzhou Secret Realm?"
With 900 layers of Fortune Loss, Chen Huai’an’s face was dark.
【This is your third question of the day. Cost: ¥1,000.】
【Warning: This divination involves extremely heavy karma. Performing it will increase your Fortune Loss layers. Confirm?】
"Confirm!"

Cangyun Realm, Sky Shrouded in Storm Clouds.
Across the continent, countless cultivators trembled as they gazed at the heavens.
Thunder boomed, and a colossal golden eye wreathed in lightning slowly scanned the world, as if
Slowly, his lips curled into a cruel grin.
"You bastard…"
"I found you."
"Heh… HEH HEH HEH."
