“That child isn’t mine; they’re just spreading rumors!”
Qianyuan Sect, Hidden Sword Peak.
A black-robed youth held a Disciple token, his voice unquestionable as he subconsciously defended himself, not thinking it through.
Instantly, his heart tightened, and he quickly realized he had been “wronged” too many times. How could he blurt out such words?
Sure enough, from the other end of the Disciple token came a voice filled with extreme exasperation: “Ah! Damn it! Ye Tong! You just wait for me!”
“Didn’t I just see you bathing? Besides, it was dark that day, and I didn’t see anything. Then you blasted me with a spell all night, and I had to recover for three whole days.”
The youth, Ye Tong, mumbled softly, for some reason feeling a bit guilty, his cheeks burning.
But he wasn’t lying; it was indeed true. It was pitch black, and he couldn’t see anything clearly.
On the other side of the Disciple token, a young girl gritted her teeth, so angry she wanted to kill someone, “I’ll come find you tomorrow! Just you wait!”
“Senior Sister, I still have things to do. I’ll chat with you another day when I’m free!”
After speaking, Ye Tong quickly put away his Disciple token, not daring to speak to the person on the other side anymore, at least not right now.
He recalled that night, a dark and stormy night.
He had gone to Daoyuan Peak and, upon being discovered, was forced to hide in the back mountains.
His Senior Sister seemed to be soaking in a hot spring, untying the silk sash around her waist. As her robes fell away, her waist was slender, soft and boneless, her flat stomach smooth and fair, small enough to be grasped in one hand.
Clear water droplets splashed onto her jade-like skin. Under the moonlight, she resembled a Fairy descending to the mortal world, utterly beautiful.
Alright.
All of this was made up by Ye Tong; in reality, he hadn't seen anything.
He sighed softly. What kind of things were these, day after day? As one of the top ten outstanding youths of the new century, ever since he had Transmigrated here, he had lived in constant fear every day.
He Transmigrated here three years ago. This world was vast and boundless, grand and magnificent, with countless powerful beings sitting on clouds, overlooking the world.
It was a winter day. He blacked out and found himself Transmigrated. A man whose face he couldn’t see appeared before him.
Behind the man, a colossal Dharma Idol suddenly rose from the ground, shattering the endless Void Realm. He stared at the bewildered Ye Tong, his mighty Immortal words carrying a chill like that of the Nine Nethers:
‘Outsider, what is your purpose in coming to my realm?!’
This incident caused a great psychological shadow for Ye Tong, with far-reaching effects.
Afterward, he was brought into the Sect by the Qianyuan Sect's Hidden Sword Peak Lord, who was also that man, taken as a Disciple, and became an honorable Hidden Sword Peak Disciple.
However, when he Transmigrated, he inexplicably came with a System. At the time, Ye Tong almost shouted—Purple Qi comes from the East for thirty thousand li, Saints descend to welcome Emperor Ye back to his position.
However.
Ye Tong’s System seemed to be short on Spiritual Qi, unable to open, and required three years to absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Until today.
【Ding! System power-up complete!】
Ye Tong smirked. The three-year period was up. Activate!
【Congratulations to the Host for activating the one-time single-choice System!】
???
One-time? Single-choice?
The cold mechanical voice in his mind left Ye Tong completely bewildered, almost breaking his composure. A System that could only be used once?
What was the point of it then?
Adhering to the principle of 'since I'm already here,' Ye Tong reluctantly opened the big gift package from the System. In an instant, five options appeared in his mind, arranged in order.
A: Mysterious Gift Package.
B: Heavenly Dao Comprehension Ability.
C: Always only three points weaker than the enemy.
D: Dragon Emperor Physique, Comes with taunts + 10000%!
【You will definitely be provoked when shopping, and definitely be insulted when buying groceries.】
【Among the crowd, you are the most conspicuous person. Even if you hide in a pile of dung, you will still shine like starlight, being trampled a few times and spat on a couple of times.】
【But as long as you are not beaten to death, you will definitely Breakthrough your shackles, and your strength will become increasingly powerful. Fighting across realms is as easy as drinking water!】
【Life and death are to be taken lightly; if you’re not convinced, just fight!】
E: Immortal Emperor Luck.
......
“Holy crap…”
Ye Tong exclaimed, the Dragon Emperor Physique practically blinding him.
If he chose this Physique, plus what he had done in the Sect over the past year...
He would be beaten to death, he definitely would!
He quickly eliminated this option and also ignored the first option. He began to ponder, weighing the pros and cons among the remaining three options.
Heavenly Dao Comprehension Ability?
Requires him to Cultivate himself. Not chosen!
Always only three points weaker than the enemy?
Heh heh, having Transmigrated to the Immortal Cultivation World, how could he always remain beneath others? Not chosen!
Immortal Emperor Luck?
This is good! Quite excellent!
Ye Tong gradually smiled. In the Immortal Cultivation World, what matters most is Immortal fate and Luck. With this, he would pick up Divine Artifacts while walking, encounter fortuitous opportunities when falling off cliffs, and obtain Phoenix Bloodline when killing chickens...
The first option was not even in his consideration.
Mysterious Gift Package?
As a seasoned gambler in his previous life, he knew one truth: gamblers never come to a good end!
“I choose E!”
Ye Tong shouted, activating his own Golden Finger. Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. My fate is up to me, not Heaven. Don't bully a young man for being poor!
【Ding!】
【Congratulations to the Host for choosing the first option!】
【The Mysterious Gift Package is being delivered. Please wait!】
“Ah?” Ye Tong opened his mouth, his expression slightly stunned, his face gradually turning liver-colored, a surge of anger rushing to his head.
“I chose E! E! Are you deaf?!”
【Option one is being delivered. Host, please do not be anxious.】
“I’m not anxious! Not at all! Give me the fifth option!”
The youth was furious, veins bulging on his forehead, stomping his feet several times, creating large pits in the accumulated snow on Hidden Sword Peak.
However, the System’s voice, devoid of any living emotion, continued to sound:
【Mysterious Gift Package has been delivered.】
【System mission complete.】
【Host, farewell!】
As the voice fell, a blue light appeared, then rushed into Ye Tong’s body. At the same time, several wisps of mist rose from his head, indicating that the System had dissipated.
On Hidden Sword Peak, withered leaves rustled, and snowflakes drifted down.
Ye Tong’s eyes were somewhat dazed. He stood weakly in the snow for a long time. Oh, vast Heaven, why are you so unfair to me?
“System, thank you, rest in peace.”
A moment later, Ye Tong’s expression suddenly changed, becoming extremely serious. His exasperation was due to his nature, but gratitude afterward could not be lacking.
Although the System was deaf, a dark-bellied item, a trashy one-time product...
But having Transmigrated to the Immortal Cultivation World, anything was better than nothing, and he was already immensely grateful in his heart.
With his Qi Induction Realm Cultivation, he focused his mind and began to introspect, examining the blue light that had integrated into his body.
One hour passed.
Two hours passed.
…
“You tricked me!”
Ye Tong’s eyes were cold, his expression extremely ugly, because he hadn't found anything. Could it be that he was a good-for-nothing, without Divine Sense, and thus unable to discover it?
It couldn't be, could it?
Hahahaha...
Haha...
Ha...
In the vast sky, a flock of flying Spirit Beasts raised by the Qianyuan Sect flew past, emitting an unpleasant cry before disappearing at the edge of the sky.
Ye Tong gave a helpless smile. He had waited three years, only to get such an outcome.
Do you know how I spent these three years?
Bitterness, heartache, discomfort... countless complex emotions surged forth.
Gradually, dark humor, a smile, arrogance... these emotions quickly occupied Ye Tong's mind.
His gaze calmly looked into the distance, where the outline of a square was faintly visible.
Between heaven and earth, the breeze was like a poem, gently caressing, carrying a hint of etherealness and tenderness.
Ye Tong stretched, casting aside all distracting thoughts in his mind, and slowly walked towards the teleportation array on the mountaintop, preparing to give the new Disciples a big surprise.
The Mysterious Gift Package could wait; he could ask his Senior Sister for help tomorrow. But earning Spirit Stones, such an important matter, could not be delayed.
However, he did not know that within his Sea of Consciousness, which had not yet been opened, earth-shattering changes were taking place, like the creation of heaven and earth.
