NOVEL NEXT Chapter 107: Heavenly Mechanism Disc
"What did you say?" the young man looked over, puzzled.
"Nothing!" Zhang Xuan replied with an embarrassed smile.
"How about you? What do you want to do with borrowed fate?" the young man asked curiously as well.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xuan said, "Same as you, but not only do I want to meet Zhang Xuan, I also want to capture him and kill him!"
The young man's expression turned odd. After a long time, he finally spoke slowly, "We're just here to borrow fate, not to dream…"
Zhang Xuan was displeased, "You think I can't succeed?"
"Go ahead and succeed slowly…"
The young man backed away a bit, afraid of catching a nervous breakdown, becoming neurotic as well.
"..."
Zhang Xuan was speechless. As he was contemplating whether to continue waiting, he saw the door of the tile-roofed house in front of him creak open.
Then, a beautiful lady with long legs walked out slowly, accompanied by a young boy.
"It's… the Xuanji Sect Leader, Liu Xuanji! Why did she come in person?"
"It was always her disciple before. This is the first time seeing the Sect Leader appear in person."
"Yeah, she's a First Level Destiny controller, one of the strongest beings in the Source World… Just seeing her once has used up all today's luck!"
...
Seeing the figure walk out, excited murmurs broke out around them, with everyone's eyes shining with excitement.
"It's really Liu Xuanji… Master, you have good luck!"
Zhang Xuan was puzzled when the voice of Frost Demon Lord also sounded in his ear.
"A First Level Destiny controller? This luck isn't good, it's bad…" Zhang Xuan's eyebrows twitched.
His disguise ability was very strong, and after advancing to the Life Sea Realm, it improved even more. He could deceive many strong beings, even people like Blood Venerate Demon Emperor.
But… there's no guarantee he could deceive a First Level Destiny controller!
In the entire Source World, there were only eight such people, truly at the pinnacle, even Buddha and Demon Lords would have to show respect. He was only at Life Sea Realm 1-dan… Meeting her directly, you call this good luck?
The Eternal Heart involves the Eternal Physique, such a great temptation that even a First Level Destiny controller would find hard to resist.
While they were conversing, the Xuanji Sect Leader Liu Xuanji, barefoot, walked out of the tile-roofed house.
Her smooth calves were exposed, and her wrists and ankles were tied with red ribbons. As she walked, it gave a special feeling.
This Sect Leader Liu, not only was she beautiful, she also had an ethereal aura. The ground was full of dust, but whenever her feet touched the ground, the dust would avoid her, as if afraid of desecration.
Whoosh!
The Sect Leader Liu stopped and stood quietly, like a fairy.
"Today, the Sect Leader herself will preside over the borrowing fate ritual… As usual, worship the Heavenly Mechanism Disc, state your fate borrowing and requests!"
The young boy's loud voice rang out.
This loud voice spread to everyone's ears, but not very far, as if confined by a special power.
Zhang Xuan squinted, realizing that this seemingly young boy's cultivation was not a bit inferior to Blood Venerate Demon Emperor!
In other words, even using all his means, he might not be able to beat him!
As expected of a First Level Destiny controller, even their subordinates are extraordinary.
Taking a deep breath, nine apertures in his heart immediately closed, stopping their operation, and his whole demeanor changed, becoming plain without any special traits.
Facing such cultivators, it was better to keep a low profile. Otherwise, a single thought from them and he wouldn't even have a chance to escape.
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison with clasped fists.
"What is the Heavenly Mechanism Disc?" Zhang Xuan asked curiously.
Despite Frost Demon Lord not having been here, he knew some things and explained, "The Heavenly Mechanism Disc is one of Sect Leader Liu's many celestial treasures. It can deduce fate, calculate fortunes and misfortunes, and most importantly, observe luck and foresee disasters…"
"Foresee disasters? That's a good thing…" Zhang Xuan nodded secretly.
If Blue Cloud Venerable had this, he might not have lost so many artifacts, allowing me to pick up a huge haul.
"Appear!"
After the young boy finished speaking, he shook his hand, and a disc suddenly flew out and hovered in mid-air.
About the size of a millstone and made of unknown material, it was inlaid with 108 gems, representing the 108 stars of the Big Dipper and Malignant Star.
Buzz!
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the disc began to spin, emitting a gentle light.
"Everyone, please worship in turn and silently state your fate-borrowing requests within your hearts. The Heavenly Mechanism Disc will automatically calculate the amount of luck needed based on your own luck and the difficulty of your request!"
The young boy continued, "Finally, the Sect Leader will randomly choose one to lend luck to."
"Yes!"
Everyone nodded again.
The rules were known to those who had been there for a while. Even the young man in the distance had heard of them; Zhang Xuan was likely the only one unaware.
However, after listening, he understood.
It's no wonder they said queuing didn't matter, only luck. It seemed so.
"Forget it, I'll just say something randomly later, and leave if I can…"
Zhang Xuan pondered.
Rather than putting himself in front of a First Level Destiny controller, he'd rather not borrow fate.
Facing the Crown Prince Yuanqing and his Law Heavenly Capital, without luck, just having a good opportunity was enough to escape. But against a First Level Destiny controller, no matter how good your luck, if they wanted to kill you, you'd only meet your end.
He didn't want to take that risk.
"That corpse, you first…"
The young boy looked at the corpse at the front.
The corpse said nothing, but the Heavenly Mechanism Disc suddenly vibrated, emitting a green light and displaying a number.
Three li of luck needed!
"The request has no life-threatening risks, three li of luck can be borrowed!"
Then he looked at the second corpse.
This time, two lights appeared, one red, one green, and a number appeared—Five li of luck needed.
"The request has a fifty-fifty chance of life and death, five li of luck wanted!"
After that, a living person began to worship.
Zhang Xuan frowned.
These people are only borrowing a few li of luck… while he needs two liang!
One liang equals ten qian, equals one hundred fen, equals one thousand li…
Well then, better not to say anything.
Borrowing two liang while others are asking for three and five li, they've been dead for decades without moving. If I borrow this much, I'd need ten thousand years!
Soon, lights flickered on the Heavenly Mechanism Disc, showing two red and one green, or three red and two green…
Respective two dead one alive, three dead two alive probabilities.
As for the amount borrowed, the highest so far was nine li of luck, none even reaching one fen.
After a short hour, the young boy's gaze fell on the young man in front.
"It's your turn!"
