NOVEL NEXT Chapter 60: System
The System, a mechanism akin to a Gacha system, had always been shrouded in mystery since it first appeared to Li Tian. From the beginning, he suspected there was a deeper purpose behind its arrival, something more profound than mere coincidence.
He likened it to the tales of individuals reincarnating into the game worlds they had once created, only to be gifted with a system that amplified their potential. However, in those tales, the truth often unraveled at the peak of their journeys. They would discover that the system was not some divine intervention but rather a creation of their own making, sent back through time or space to benefit their future selves.
Li Tian couldn't shake the feeling that his situation mirrored such stories. The System's tailored functions, seemingly perfect rewards, and enigmatic nature felt as though they were designed to propel him toward unimaginable heights of power.
Was it a tool he had crafted in another life? A failsafe to guarantee his ascension? Or perhaps, it served a more profound purpose, one yet to be revealed. These questions lingered in his mind, compelling him to unravel its origin while tackling the challenges it presented with an ever-growing resolve.
When he got his memories back he knew what exactly happened that made this system.
In those memories, he saw a person—a Venerable, the progenitor of the Theving Path, an otherworldly demon who almost broke the world. This was a person whose singular goal was to return to his own world. He was known as the Theving Heaven Demon Venerable.
A year before Levi's soul, which came from the modern world, arrived in this realm, another soul entered this world with the help of Zhu Yin, who merged with Heaven's Will. This soul was unnoticed and came to the Theving Heaven Demon Venerable.
Despite the absurdity of the deal proposed by the Li Tian—Li Tian promised that if the deal succeeded, he would send the Venerable back to his world. He warned, however, that even if the Venerable searched through all of Li Tian's memories, he would not find a way to escape.
The reason for this was that Heaven's Will does not allow anyone to leave; if someone were to escape, it would create a hole that could cause the Gu World to crumble.
Even the Space Escape Gu couldn't take you to the desired location, let alone outside the world. So, Li Tian urged the Venerable to make a deal with him: he would promise to send him back home in 40 years, and although his lifespan was limited, Li Tian assured him that he would ensure a longer lifespan.
"I admire you, which is why I am willing to do this," Li Tian stated, "but I am also seeking my own benefits. So, help me."
Thus, the deal was concluded, and both parties agreed.
He spoke about a concept called a system and how to create it for Theveing Heaven Demon Venerable. He explained that to make it invisible to others, only he could perceive it, and to achieve this invisibility, the system needed to be attached to his soul and mind.
This was just the initial step in the process. To create this system, one needed Gu, which were only found in the Legends of RenZhu. The Rules and Regulations Gu captured the Gu from all over the world described in these legends, making it essential for the creation process.
Furthermore, the bloodlines were established through a refinement process based on Li Tian's memories. Both individuals sought assistance from Lang Ya, but once everything was completed, Lang Ya's memories were removed. As a result, Lang Ya no longer remembers anything about Li Tian or Theveing Heaven Demon Venerable.
They employed various methods to obtain Dao marks from different regions of the world to create the bloodlines, even nearly depleting an entire region of its Dao marks. Because Theveing Heaven specialized in stealing, this task was made easier for them.
Theveing Heaven added a killer move which is almost similar to Divine Conclement but this time Theveing Heaven didn't use his otherworldy dao marks but Li Tian that's why the dao marks were reduced by a lot.
The name of this move is Heaven Concealment, and this was integrated into the system which is his own soul and that made him free from Heaven's will not from fate though.
After that, due to the deal with Zhu Yin he had to hide his own memories, he doesn't know why that dumb sh*t hag asked to do that, it doesn't even make any sense like you gave me back my memories but you should have given it to normally.
Right when he got his memories he thought of something that is she tried to brainwash, his previous self before the removal of memories used a killer move which he asked Theveing Heaven to do due to that the brainwashing effects not there and he is still acting like he was affected.
While thinking about everything that happened, he received a message that they had arrived at Emperor City.
