Chapter 2: Template - Wang Quan Ba Ye, Nothing Under Heaven is Impossible
“System, use the fishing attempt.”
Ye Xuan didn't hesitate at all, immediately using the fishing attempt granted by the system. Then, his surroundings suddenly plunged into darkness, followed by an invisible force slowly enveloping him, guiding him into a completely new space.
“Rumble!”
The next moment, Ye Xuan's vision suddenly cleared. He found himself amidst an endless galaxy, with countless stars adorning the dark night sky, glittering with dazzling light, like brilliant gems.
Ye Xuan floated above this galaxy, feeling the warm glow emanating from the stars and the majestic aura flowing through the galaxy. His heart was filled with shock.
“Why do most transmigrators who are bound to a system trust the system?”
“This is the answer!”
It wasn't that he lacked knowledge; it was simply that the scene before his eyes would shock anyone. After the initial shock, what one would feel was a sense of security.
In a strange world, having such a powerful system bound to him instantly brought a sense of security.
Just as Ye Xuan was in shock, a soft golden light slowly rose from his palm, gradually condensing into a fishing rod wrapped in purple light. The rod's body was carved with complex and exquisite runes, each one shimmering with a faint glow.
At the tip of the fishing rod, a profound green gem was embedded, imbued with a mysterious aura; a golden thread hung from the tip of the rod, extending straight into the brilliant galaxy.
As the thread descended, the surrounding space seemed to produce a subtle ripple, as if something was slowly being drawn over.
Ye Xuan stared intently at the golden thread, hoping to fish up a good ability.
If he couldn't fish up what he had thought of before, he would still accept things like Doraemon's Four-Dimensional Pocket, Big Big Wolf's invention ability, or the Emperor Armor.
Uh, it seems a bit greedy, right? But since he already knew he was being greedy, why not be even greedier?
Just as Ye Xuan was thinking this, he suddenly felt an unusual tremor from the fishing rod. With a thought, the fishing line rapidly ascended, carrying a golden sphere radiating a soft light. The system's voice also sounded in Ye Xuan's ear.
【Ding】
【Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the Wangquan Hegemony Template (Youth Period)】
【Remarks: 1. Wang Quan Ba Ye is a character from the Fox Spirit Matchmaker World, leader of the "Mask" organization, future Alliance Leader of the One-Qi Dao Alliance, and Head of the Wang Quan Family. This template represents his youth, possessing a Sword Heart, but not yet having mastered Wangquan Sword Intent.】
【Remarks: 2. After the Host merges with the template, you will gain all the talents and abilities of the template, but you will not merge with the template's own memories, personality, or emotions.】
“A character from the Fox Spirit Matchmaker World, the Wangquan Hegemony Template, huh.”
When he saw the item he had fished up, Ye Xuan was stunned, and relevant scenes surfaced in his mind.
“This is indeed a forbidden zone for the timid, but how can it frighten us, how can it frighten me, Wang Quan Ba Ye!”
“That day, I saw the strongest swordsman pick up the strongest sword in the world, but he had long lost his Sword Heart.”
“If we can continue our fate, what does it matter if the other party is a monster or not.”
“Huaizhu, I can finally come to see you with my Sword Heart.”
Young and reckless, always thinking that nothing under heaven was impossible; years passed, and finally realizing that everything under heaven had its limits.
Wang Quan Ba Ye's life was tragic, and this tragic turning point was going outside the circle; because of going outside the circle, his brothers and sisters died tragically, the Daoist sect declined, Oriental Huai Zhu was ambushed, his Sword Heart was lost—everything originated from outside the circle.
But was going outside the circle a mistake?
Ye Xuan remained silent, then shook his head. This answer should be given by Wang Quan Ba Ye, by the members of the Masked Group, not by him; but for him, youthful spirit was never a mistake. They merely underestimated what was outside the circle and overestimated themselves.
“But in his youth, he hadn't yet comprehended Wangquan Sword Intent?”
“That's right, Wangquan Fugui said that Wangquan Sword Intent was created by Wang Quan Ba Ye, the ancestor of the Wang Quan Family, after he returned from outside the circle. Although the first person to comprehend Wangquan Sword Intent was Wang Quan Wu Mu, Wang Quan Wu Mu died too early and it wasn't passed down.”
“After losing your Sword Heart, you were still able to comprehend Wangquan Sword Intent. If your Sword Heart was still there, would you truly be able to achieve the unity of man and sword with the Wangquan Sword?”
Ye Xuan's mind replayed the scene where Wang Quan Ba Ye, in order to revitalize the One-Qi Dao Alliance, tried to forcefully merge Wangquan Sword Intent with the Wangquan Sword, but failed.
With the Sword Heart gone, how could the sword in hand and the sword in heart become one?
Although the sword in hand became increasingly sharp, if the Sword Heart had not been lost, holding the Wangquan Sword, why would he need to fear the Four Great Demon Emperors?
“System, merge the Wangquan Hegemony Template.”
Ye Xuan said softly, and then a vast energy from the void merged into his body. This energy was like a surging river, carrying endless vitality and life, flowing through his meridians.
And as the energy continuously poured in, Ye Xuan's body began to tremble slightly. Every inch of his skin, every muscle, was undergoing earth-shattering changes.
Although humans in the Fox Spirit Matchmaker World cannot live forever, the mastery of any power brings about significant changes to the body. If one does not have a strong physique, how can they bear the power they possess?
Although Wang Quan Ba Ye in his youth was not as strong as Wangquan Fugui, who carried Oriental Huai Zhu's spiritual power, as the strongest prodigy of the younger generation in his era, his strength was by no means weak, especially for an ordinary person like Ye Xuan.
As the fusion progressed, Ye Xuan's clothes also began to transform. His original garments gradually faded, replaced by a blue and white outer robe and white inner clothing. A long sword, inscribed with the characters "Wang Quan," also appeared in his hand at some point.
This was, of course, not the true Wangquan Sword, but merely the sword Wang Quan Ba Ye carried in his youth, simply engraved with the words "Wang Quan." Ye Xuan hadn't expected that the system would even provide clothes and a weapon when merging the template.
Feeling all the power within his current body, and the belief of "no place under heaven is unreachable, no task impossible" that spontaneously arose when he held the long sword, Ye Xuan truly understood what the Sword Heart Wang Quan Ba Ye had lost meant.
After a long while, Ye Xuan recovered from the power brought by the Wangquan Hegemony Template, then, with a thought, he withdrew the long robe and long sword into the system space.
Although he really wanted to find a place to try out the power he had gained, it was already night, and he had school tomorrow.
While dimensional invasions and spiritual energy resurgence gave everyone a chance to gain power, only a minority could truly obtain it. Moreover, the current Xia Kingdom was still protected by Elder Zhong, who had obtained the Rock Archon template. If you thought you could do whatever you wanted just because you gained power, that would be wishful thinking.
