Chapter 5 Novice gift pack
[Do you want to open the novice gift pack? ]
[Yes/No]
A line of text flashed in front of him, and a storage bag gleaming with golden light.
"Yes."
Ye An selected, and the storage bag instantly shone brightly.
[Items: Star Rainbow Sword (Heavenly Grade Inferior Quality)]
[Unlock system module: Automatic Cultivation]
[Obtained item: Shard of the Jade of Fortune*1! ]
[Obtained item: The remains of the World Tree Leaf*1! ]
He looked over one by one, focusing on the first item.
The star rainbow sword, shining with the orange light of the setting sun, was a great weapon.
Spiritual artifacts were divided into four grades of heaven, earth, black and yellow, and then each grade had three different qualities, and they were superior, average, inferior.
The sword body was engraved with red lines on one side and the Big Dipper on the other. It seemed that it was a great sword at first glance.
"From a general rational point of view, the weapons of Heavenly Grade Inferior Quality are indeed good."
"However, this holy temple’s treasury has a lot of weapons like this.”
“I'll make do with it.”
After speaking, Ye An threw the sword into the storage space.
Then he looked at the next task reward.
That was a line of system text.
[Automatic Cultivation module has been activated! ]
[Introduction: After unlocking this system module, the host’s physical spiritual veins will continue to consolidate and absorb spiritual qi like the host is doing cultivation in seclusion, but the host can move freely without being affected.
Every once in a while, the system can be called to break through the realm, and there will be no negative effects. ]
[The current state of the host: the first stage of the body tempering state]
"Automatic Cultivation?"
Ye An was lost in thought.
It’s a bit like some kind of AFK auto-level up function in some MMO.
Nevertheless, Ye An’s spiritual veins had just been recovered after all, and he needed to start his realm from scratch.
With such a function, he could take a moment to rest.
"If the realm breakthrough is fast enough, then I don't have to worry about cultivation in the future."
"Yes, this reward is also very good."
Ye An nodded in satisfaction.
Then he moved his gaze to the next item.
It was a mysterious shard that was completely dark and filled with hazy black mist.
The breath of this black mist was very weak, but it gave him a terrifying feeling.
It felt like if it was not just a shard, it would swallow the whole world’s spiritual qi and turn them into black mist.
The name on the system was "Shard of the Jade of Fortune"
[Introduction: The Jade of Destiny, a secret treasure born in the hands of the evil race thousands of years ago.
When all the shards are assembled to synthesize a complete jade, part of the chosen one’s luck can be swallowed.]
"Assemble the shards, and then swallow luck...?"
Ye An's eyes suddenly lit up.
The so-called chosen was someone who would get a heavenly rank cultivation manual no matter what kind of book they chose in Library Pavillion; and the garbage they bought in some market would eventually turn out to be priceless treasure. Moreover, they were the ones who would have good fortune after they survived a catastrophe.
But if he could swallow their luck...
The chosen one would no longer be the chosen one. He might be able to kill him.
Ye An would no longer have any worries.
In the holy temple and even the entire plane, it could even be said that he would be second to only the empress. In terms of why he would be second to the empress, he also had no choice. He was a simp after all.
"In other words, if I want to gather all the shards, I need to continue to do system tasks in the future..."
Ye An put away the shards and silently strengthened his conviction: "But so what? It is just to be a simp, I am not scared.”
He also knew the routine of having a system. It was nothing more than to follow the missions of the system.
Empress Qi Xi was conquered by him in seconds, it should be just an accident.
Once she was conquered by him, the system would no longer give him a reward if he performed a simp behavior in front of her, which was a pity.
...
The final reward was a leaf that had withered and rotted.
However, this plain withered yellow leaf was the most important task reward.
[Remains of the Leaf of the World Tree]
[Introduction: The leaf contains some plane laws, and it has a certain degree of connection with the order of time.
Using it, one will be able to see what has happened in the past, or predict what will happen in the future. ]
"See what has happened in the past...?"
Ye An stroked his chin.
He had also heard of the so-called World Tree.
Judging from his thinking, it was nothing more than the setting of this story:
A plane had countless islands and continents; a big world had countless planes; a leaf of the world tree had countless big worlds.
To put it bluntly, it was like an infinite novel.
However, the ability like seeing clearly what has happened in the past, or predicting what will happen in the future was very exciting.
‘I wonder if I can see the movement of the chosen one?’
Ye An had a bold guess.
The reason why he wanted to complete the task of the simp system was to become stronger; and to become stronger was to defeat the chosen one in the future.
After falling into a Qi Deviation state, his memory was incomplete, and he still didn't know the whereabouts of the chosen one.
But if he knew it in advance, he could get rid of him while he was still in the novice stage.
"Okay, then..."
Holding the leaf in the palm, Ye An closed his eyes. Just when he was about to use this item.
Suddenly, a voice came.
Knock, knock….
"Your Highness, Her Majesty the Empress wants to see you."
The maid knocked gently on the door and said.
Ye An quickly cut off the thoughts in his mind and hid the leaf.
Fortunately, it was just a maid, who was only waiting outside the door, and no one else saw the leaf..
He was slightly confused, "Now?"
It was only after a short while, why would the empress wanted to see him
The maid said outside the door: "Yes. Her Majesty... Her Majesty said that if you are not free, you don’t have to go."
Ye An moved his gaze out of the window.
At this time, it was already late at night, and the cold wind was roaring outside the window.
Ye An pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll be there."
After that, he rested for a while, and then went out.
The maid waited aside, did not follow, just lowered her head slightly, shivering.
She followed the empress's instructions before leaving.
A layer of cold sweat had oozed out from her back.
"Your Highness..."
The maid looked at Ye An's leaving back, and muttered in her heart, ‘It's forbidden to have relationships in the holy temple. This is a rule set by her majesty. She never checks if other people obey this rule or not, but many people obey itt.”
"But just now, Her Majesty asked me a lot about these aspects of things, and she then asked me... if I ever fell in love."
"Her expression is so scary."
"Her Majesty must have known something, that's why it's like this... Could it be that she wants to investigate it now?"
In the holy temple, the outcome of fighting against the rules of heaven was often miserable.
After asking a series of questions about love, she even asked the maid if she had a romantic partner...
And then she even invited Ye An to meet alone.
Without thinking, the maid knew that Ye An must have a love affair with someone and was caught by the empress!
Probably this time, Ye An would be punished by the empress.
