God explained, at first you must understand that there are many universes which constitute the multiverse.
Each universe might have their own power system. These power system also divide the potential of that universe. In some universe due to the power system their power level is also very low.
Zhang suddenly asked, god, what is the level of this universe.
God said with pride that this universe is one of the few top level universes in the world and I as the god am comparable to a primordial supremacy.
Zhang did not understand how powerful a primordial supremacy is but he thought that it was probably a very high realm.
So he asked god, what does the system have anything to do with the multiverse.
God said, I have already told you everything in this multiverse is of equivalent exchange. What do you think you have to exchange for a super broken system.
Zhang replied, isn't it merit.
God laughed and said, no it is potential.
Zhang thought, potential? What do you mean by potential.
God continued explaining, with a system a person is destined to reach the top of their respected universe. But isn't it too over kill for just merit to be able to do this with just a system. Think about yourself, the amount of merit you have so much merit which is impossible for any other mortal to have but in the end its still only 0.1% of the total merit of a universe. Let's forget about the merit needed to be eligible to be reincarnated in another universe. Do you think that amount of merit is enough to make you the strongest of your universe. No. There is no shortcut to true power.
God paused and said, then what about a system or goldenfinger. How do they make any sense. Well the reason is very simple. They bring you power through sacrificing potential. Besides systems have many downsides too. They can only show their power in flawed universes.
Zhang asked god, what do you mean by a flawed universe.
God explained, I told you the universe we are in now is a top level universe. I am the ruler of this universe and am in the heavenly primordial realm. Besides there are mid and high level universes with primordial realm rulers. Then we have low level universes or flawed universes. The power level in those universes is very inconsistent. But they have common characteristic that is the limit of cultivation there is the celestial realm.
Zhang was confused hearing the explanation of god. His brain couldn't comprehend what god meant.
As if god had seen through Zhangs thoughts, he said, to make you understand it let me tell you that all the universes you know about from anime, manga or novels are true and they really exist. But all of this universes are flawed universes. As a matter of fact there have only been two universes among them that were once mid level universes. These are what you know as the dragon ball universe and pokemon universe. Now you may think that there are many universes mentioned in those animes or mangas which are way stronger than these two but you are wrong. Didn't I tell you flawed universes have inconsistent power levels. The two strongest person in all the anime and manga you know are dragon god Zalama and Arceus-origin. Their power levels are both comparable to the 1st level of the primordial realm. This is because their power system is very consistent with the mainstream cultivation system and for this when they go to any other low, mid or high level universe their power level remains unaffected. Then what about strong anime universes. Well, let us consider Rimuru Tempest in the novel. According to it he should crush the dbz universe. But this is not the case. As a matter of fact the dbz universe is 2000 times the size of rimuru's universe and the smallest mid level universe is about 4 times the size of dbz universe. So the laws in the dbz universe is way stronger then the tempest universe. So even if rimuru has a power level of a peak primordial realm cultivator in his universe, if he were to enter into the dbz universe his strength would be comparable to an angel at most.
Then god said, do you understand now what did I mean by pitting you with a system. If you have a system you can only reincarnate in a flawed universe. In that universe the strongest you can be is a celestial realm cultivator. Besides any primordial realm cultivator can sense the presence of a system and strip it off you. Then you would not only loss all your power but also your soul would get irreversibly damaged. You can't even go in a mid level universe or higher because of this. Besides by luck if you do even become a heavenly primordial realm cultivator with a system, even if creator of the system is weaker that you he can terminate the system along with your soul. This can also be considered as a leash by the system creators.
Zhang finally understood why god said that he would not pit him with a system. It turned out that a system would limit a persons growth.
Zhang suddenly remembered about the protagonists of all those novels with a system and felt sorry for them. It turned out that those system were pits dug by the gods to put a leash on them.
God continued, with your merit I can even reincarnate you to the best high level universe with the potential to evolve in to a top level one. So there is no way I would give you a system and send you to a lower one.
Zhang sighed. He felt sad that he would not get a system. But he still cheered himself by saying, so what, isn't this even better.
As if god saw through Zhangs thoughts, he said, you don't have to feel sorry. Even if you don't get a system, the gift I am going to give you will not inferior to a cheat system.
Hearing what god said Zhangs excitement again rose. He couldn't stop thinking about the gift god mentioned.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
