Chương 1: Reincarnation
Wang Jian, 25, Beijing, China. He was the core member of Assembly of the Phantom.
His life was going well as he had developed connections with the government in China. However, it was a pity that a pandemic broke out in the world and even Wang Jian caught that deadly virus. He remained in the emergency ward for a month before losing his life.
Death…It is a phenomenon that all creatures instinctively fear. It is due to their fear of death that they sharpen their survival instincts.
The reason to fear death is simple. It is because nobody knows what occurs after death.
Is their soul destroyed? Are they assimilated into the universe? Or do they experience rebirth? Do they enter heaven or hell based on their karma as a living being?
Everything is unknown. It is the fear of unknown that makes all creatures fear death.
Wang Jian was also one such person who feared death. He tried all sorts of methods to survive. He used a majority of his money on his treatment, but unfortunately, it only delayed his inevitable ending.
However, Wang Jian experienced a sense of discomfort even after dying.
He groggily opened his eyes and felt blinded by the bright light. Wang Jian instinctively closed his eyes.
He tried again after a few seconds. However, Wang Jian opened his eyes very slowly.
Very soon, his vision quickly adjusted to the bright light, and he could see clearly.
Wang Jian looked around and noticed he was in a large room made of grey stones and planks. The room felt rather cool even with no air-conditioner.
On the ceiling was a small window that let light enter the room.
"What is this place?" Wang Jian wondered.
Around this moment, he experienced a sharp pain in his head. This sharp pain was accompanied with lots of foreign memories.
Wang Jian was shocked as he was forced to see those memories. No…Not just see but experience those memories.
In 20 seconds, Wang Jian experienced twenty years' worth of memories.
'I have transmigrated into another world! B-But what the heck is this?!' Wang Jian couldn't help but curse in his mind.
It was only natural for him to be agitated.
The body he possessed belonged to the seventh prince of the Everlasting Mystical Empire. His name was also Wang Jian.
Wang Jian was a handsome young man with striking features. His silver hair was a unique and captivating aspect that caught the attention of many. His blue eyes sparkled like the ocean and reflected his sharp mind. His well-defined jawline and straight nose added to his striking appearance, making him stand out from the crowd. He had a charismatic aura around him, and his confident demeanor was evidence of his inner strength and determination.
However, this Wang Jian held little to no talent and frequently stirred up trouble in the capital. There were times when Wang Jian even offended the grand elders of two reputed sects.
Thus, the Emperor banished Wang Jian to the outskirts of the Everlasting Mystical Empire.
However, Wang Jian used his status to become the local overlord of this region. He committed all sorts of atrocities, like killing anyone who offended him, coercing beauties to sleep with him, accepting bribes, and even seizing the properties of his citizens.
The local army and bandits supported Wang Jian as they earned an immense fortune by following him. They prevented anyone from leaving the region and complaining to the Emperor.
Well, one or two would still escape their scrutiny, but Wang Jian's mother would deal with those individuals in the capital.
They had all grown accustomed to Wang Jian's dictatorship as no assistance from the capital arrived.
Just a month ago, Wang Jian came across a beauty while roaming in the town. He immediately ordered his men to capture her.
At that moment, a young man of around sixteen years old stepped forward and fought his men. He didn't possess any cultivation, but his movements seemed rather refined.
Still, it was impossible for this youth to fight three cultivators with no cultivation. His movements became sluggish due to exhaustion, and he was struck repeatedly.
At that moment, the beauty next to that youth immediately approached Wang Jian and pleaded to not kill her friend. She promised to do anything in return.
A wretched smile appeared on Wang Jian's face as he heard that promise. He gently held that beauty's chin and spoke, "Very well. If you become my maid, I will let him live. You must break all connection with him."
"…Yes," The beauty responded weakly.
Wang Jian soon left with that beauty. He naturally didn't forget to send some assassins to kill that youth secretly.
However, it was rather strange that his assassins didn't return.
Wang Jian tried to investigate the matter and soon discovered that even the youth's body had gone missing.
After searching for some period, he gave up on that youth. He was more interested in that young beauty.
Her name is Su Xian.
Just before Wang Jian could force himself upon her, one of his advisors spoke out, "Sir. This woman possesses the Innate Energy Vessel! It means whoever takes her body can absorb all her cultivation and talent. It would be a waste if you take her body now."
Wang Jian stopped upon hearing this explanation and asked, "…What do you mean?"
His advisors spoke, "Milord, it would be best if we make her reach the Spirit Realm before you take her body and absorb all her cultivation and talent. Through this method, you can instantly reach the peak of the Spirit Realm or even break through to the Origin Realm."
Wang Jian was rather impressed by this idea. His cultivation talent was average, so he required tremendous resources and exceptional cultivation techniques to reach the Origin Realm.
Even after cultivating for more than ten years, Wang Jian's cultivation barely broke through the Spirit Realm.
Meanwhile, his siblings had already reached the Origin Realm while using fewer resources compared to him. Even his younger siblings far surpassed his cultivation.
Thus, Wang Jian was considered trash in the Royal Family of the Everlasting Mystical Empire. And it was one of the reasons the Emperor didn't favor him.
It was a good thing that his mother was one of the Emperor's beloved concubines, or else Wang Jian's condition would be even worse.
In any case, Wang Jian decided to wait before forcing himself upon Su Xian.
Meanwhile, Su Xian was forced to cultivate under heavy scrutiny. Three Origin Realm warriors kept a close watch over her.
Just a week ago, news of Su Xian's childhood friend arrived. His name is Lin Feng, and he was last seen making contact with the tribal people in Wang Jian's region.
These tribes resided in the forests and used guerilla warfare to slaughter Wang Jian's underlings. They were the only ones who dared to resist Wang Jian's rule in this region.
Lin Feng's cultivation had already reached the Spirit Realm, while his combat prowess could even contend with an Origin Realm Cultivator.
His rapid cultivation astonished Wang Jian and his underlings, and they made up their minds to kill Lin Feng at all costs.
Unfortunately, their attempts to kill Lin Feng failed, and they even suffered tremendous losses.
And today, while Wang Jian was sleeping, another soul entered his body. The original soul of Wang Jian's body contended, but for some reason, it was quickly swallowed.
Wang Jian was utterly speechless as he realized his current predicament.
"What the heck is this situation? If this goes on, I will be fighting a protagonist."
Wang Jian knew what this meant. He would become the protagonist's stepping stone and help him act cool. He naturally didn't want such a thing to happen.
Just as he was thinking about ways to deal with this situation, he heard a mechanical voice in his head.
[The fusion of souls is complete.]
"Who was that?" Wang Jian asked aloud.
[Greetings, Master. I am a part of your soul.]
"Interesting," Wang Jian muttered.
"What can you do for me?"
[Master, I can help you cultivate and learn more skills by using destiny points.]
Wang Jian raised his brow as he heard this description. It felt awfully similar to a system.
'Let's try this.'
"Display my status."
[Yes, Master.]
[
Name: Wang Jian.
Age: 20 years old.
Destiny Points: 100.
Cultivation: First Stage of Spirit Realm.
Skills: Origin Fist, Beam of Destruction, and Mystic Force.
Bloodline: Devil Blood (Dormant).
Physique: Chaotic Yang Body (Dormant).
Spirit: Dark Spirit Viper (Three Star Spirit).
]
Wang Jian let out a sigh as he saw his status screen.
In this world, there were nine ranks of cultivation.
True Realm.
Spirit Realm.
Origin Realm.
Lord Realm.
King Realm.
Emperor Realm.
Saint Realm.
Immortal Realm.
Transcendent Realm.
There are only a couple of Emperor Realm cultivators in the Everlasting Mystical Empire and all of them worked for the Royal Family. Wang Jian's father, the Emperor is also an Emperor Realm expert.
In this world, all cultivators start cultivating from the True Realm. They develop their True Qi and slowly strengthen it in this realm.
After reaching the Spirit Realm, they awaken their Spirit. The Spirit they awaken is the shape of their soul. It could be a spirit in the form of a beast or a tool spirit.
Thus, after reaching the Spirit Realm, a cultivator changes his cultivation technique to suit his Spirit.
Unfortunately for Wang Jian, he reached the Spirit Realm after he was banished from the Royal Palace.
He could no longer look for the spectacular cultivation techniques in the Royal Palace suited for his Spirit.
Actually, Wang Jian could have requested his mother to send him a cultivation technique. It would be very challenging for his mother to send a cultivation technique while concealing it from the Emperor, but she could do it.
However, Wang Jian chose not to take this risk. He knew that his Spirit wasn't anything impressive. It was merely a 3-Star Spirit and didn't hold much potential. He didn't want his mother to risk herself for such a minor task.
"System, what are destiny points? How do I earn them?" Wang Jian asked as he noticed this category in his status screen.
[Master, each individual in this world is born with a part of World Essence. This world essence defines their destiny. However, there are certain individuals that are born with a special part of World's Essence. They can be protagonists, heroines, underlings, and villains.]
[To earn destiny points, the Master must significantly affect the emotional state of these individuals possessing great providence. Through this method, you can shave off their luck. Once their luck has exhausted, they will no longer receive the protection of the world.]
Wang Jian's brows twitched upon hearing this description.
'Is this system suggesting me to go pick up a fight against a protagonist?!'
"What do you mean by affecting the emotional state? Must it be negative?" Wang Jian asked.
[The type of emotion doesn't matter. The only requirement is that it must be intense enough.]
Wang Jian was satisfied upon hearing this description. It would be a pity if he were forced to kill all heroines.
Wang Jian suddenly raised his brows in surprise as this thought entered his mind.
'Interesting. I didn't think I would be so reluctant to act against a woman. Is this the effect of my soul fusing with this brat? Well, it should be fine as long as it doesn't hinder me greatly.'
"What exactly can you do with destiny points?" Wang Jian asked. If he was to fight against a protagonist, he had to know precisely what he was capable of.
[Using Destiny Points, the system can assist the Master in learning and mastering skills. Activating or Transforming Master's physique and bloodline. Increase Master's Cultivation. Fuse Spirits. Blend herbs. Concoct Poison. Analyze opponents.]
"What is in the system shop? Also, open the beginner's package. Let me check it out," Wang Jian spoke.
As an avid novel reader, Wang Jian was familiar with the basic properties of a system. He knew that each system possessed a system mall or a shop. They would even provide a beginner's package.
[Master, there is no system shop or a beginner's package.]
Wang Jian's complexion turned pale as he heard this statement. He felt as if this was a scam.
[Master, the system is a part of your soul. My abilities can only help you realize your potential. I can't do something that is even beyond your potential.]
Wang Jian's eyes widened, "My potential?"
He didn't expect that the system's abilities would be related to his potential.
Wang Jian fell into deep thought as he brainstormed about how he should utilize this system.
Very soon, a clever scheme appeared in his head. If his rivals from the previous world saw Wang Jian's expression, their complexion would turn pale immediately. They knew that this expression implied he was about to deceive someone badly.
