Villain: My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens.

Upon learning of Su Qingge's movements, Xie Zheng twirled half a jade buckle between his fingers, raised his eyebrows slightly, and remained silent. It wasn't that he was deep in thought; he was simply figuring out how to extract more luck points more easily.

"Young master, there is something I cannot understand." The old man's voice drifted out from the shadows, his face full of confusion, like an old student being kept after school by his teacher.

Given Xie Zheng's nature, he is always meticulous in his planning and has a well-founded plan for everything he does. However, today, he was asked to suppress Ye Chen's aura, and Xie Zheng's intentions were truly unclear.

If it were anyone else, Elder Ming might not have asked so many questions, but this person in front of him had been hailed as a "born genius" by his family since childhood, and his insight was even more discerning than those of these old folks who had lived for hundreds of years. He dared not make any wild guesses and could only bite the bullet and ask.

Xie Zheng raised his eyes, his tone as indifferent as if it had been tempered with ice, yet it concealed a hint of mischievousness: "Ye Chen is enveloped in great fortune. Keeping him around will bring me opportunities."

That's no exaggeration.

After all, he was still waiting to exploit Ye Chen's luck points. Besides, the chosen ones always had opportunities everywhere, so why not take them?

Xie Zheng muttered to himself, then shook his head with feigned seriousness, as if to say, "I had no choice but to take this small advantage."

Upon hearing this, Elder Ming suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly, "So that's how it is. I was ignorant."

He should have realized that the young master's descent to the mortal realm, ostensibly for training, was actually a search for opportunities, and Ye Chen was most likely the "stepping stone" the young master had his eye on.

As for the fortune the young master mentioned, he had no doubt about it at all, after all, Xie Zheng's judgment had never been wrong.

Xie Zheng glanced at him and added, "Go to the dungeon and keep an eye on Ye Chen. Whether he's crying for his parents or breaking through on the spot, you're not allowed to interfere."

He figured out the rules of luck points last night: attacking Ye Chen would give him points, and stealing his opportunities would give him even more.

Moreover, there are some things that even Ye Chen's so-called "Godfather" can't help with. For example, right now, Su Qingge and Ye Chen are probably at odds.

"Understood, Your Majesty." Elder Ming bowed and replied, then vanished without a trace, leaving not even a hint of his presence.

Xie Zheng stroked the jade buckle, a cunning smile playing on his lips.

Using Su Qingge to deplete Ye Chen's luck points was indeed a useful tactic. Just now in the main hall, all Su Qingge had to do was say a harsh word, which made Ye Chen tremble with anger and his mind was in turmoil.

Moreover, he has already grasped Su Qingge's weakness, so getting something out of her in the future will be a piece of cake.

"More than three hundred luck points, it's impossible not to be tempted." Xie Zheng smacked his lips, his expression as if he had seen a pile of shiny treasures, completely losing his usual aloofness, and his silly side instantly emerged.

After pondering for only two seconds, he suddenly slapped his forehead, realizing he had almost forgotten he had a system!

With a thought, the light blue attribute interface appeared directly in front of him.

Warehouse: New Player Gift Pack *1 (To be claimed)

"A newbie gift pack?" Xie Zheng narrowed his eyes, his tone laced with sarcasm. "So, I got a welcome gift after transmigrating?"

He was so focused on figuring out his luck points that he hadn't even noticed this thing in the warehouse.

The next second, a system notification sounded: "Claim your newbie gift pack?"

Xie Zheng chuckled, his tone dismissive: "Nonsense, are you suggesting I save it for the New Year? Take it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light exploded with a "hum," and a box carved with auspicious cloud patterns appeared out of thin air, its whole body radiating a hazy divine light. It slowly opened in front of him, so bright that it was almost impossible for him to open his eyes.

"Ding! Congratulations, Master, you have had incredible luck! You have obtained 1 Domain Breaking Talisman, 1 Five-Colored Robe, and 1 Torn One-Third World Seed."

As soon as the system's mechanical notification tone ended, Xie Zheng chuckled: "So this thing depends on luck? My string of bad luck didn't even affect me?" He leaned over and glanced at the three items; they all looked quite substantial and didn't seem like a gimmick.

The Domain-Breaking Talisman, as the name suggests, can break through domain barriers and traverse between two domains. If you are ever unable to fight back, this thing will be a life-saving artifact.

The five-colored robe is a defensive magical artifact. He glanced at the description and raised his eyebrows even higher: It can withstand a full-force attack from a Void God Realm expert? That's a good item.

He knew all about cultivation levels: physical body, spiritual sea, soul palace, supernatural power, great power, saint lord, marquis, king, and illusory god.

As for those above the Void God level, they are all world-destroying beings, which have nothing to do with him now, and thinking about it is pointless.

Xie Zheng casually flipped his hand, and the five-colored robe was on his body.

It looks like an ordinary moon-white undershirt, but the material is unusually exquisite, with a faint, soft sheen. It looks understated, but it actually hides a secret.

He tugged at the corner of his clothes, thinking to himself, "It's alright, not ugly at all, much better than that stiff Taoist robe from Daotian Immortal Palace."

Then, his gaze fell on the gray seed, and with a tap of his finger, the description popped up: "A complete world seed. After being refined, it can nurture a world within the body, creating endlessly and having its own life and death."

"A world within a body?" Xie Zheng's eyes brightened, his tone unusually genuinely surprised. "This thing is simply a divine artifact!"

He had been thinking about how to escape if things went wrong, and this world seed seemed tailor-made for him.

If you really can't win, you can hide in your own inner world, where no one can find you.

Unfortunately, only one-third.

Xie Zheng pursed his lips, looking regretful: "Never mind, something is better than nothing. Let's improve our cultivation first."

The world is vast, but strength is paramount.

Whether you're trying to gain good fortune or want to dominate the world, it's all for nothing without real strength.

He cleared his throat and shouted into the air, "Dark Blue, give me some more!"

After shouting, he paused, then added with a look of disgust, "Oh no, system, give me some points."

Finally, he stubbornly muttered, "I earned these Destiny Points myself, what kind of cheating is that? At most, it's just making good use of resources."

After saying that, he proudly raised his chin, looking both silly and arrogant, without any of the majesty of a peak Saint Lord, but more like a child who had stolen a piece of candy.

Dao Tian Xian Dian (The Daoist Celestial Scripture).

This is the cultivation technique Xie Zheng practices.

It is also a cultivation method that only true disciples of the Daotian Immortal Palace are qualified to access, which leads directly to the immortal position and is the foundation for the enduring existence of an immortal sect.

Countless immortal forces and supreme lineages in the upper realm are green with envy.

Xie Zheng has now cultivated to the point where, despite the original owner's powerful talent, he has been stuck here for almost half a year and finds it difficult to break through to the next level.

"Since Fate Points can be used to add points, then improving the level of cultivation techniques will naturally allow one to break through cultivation levels."

Xie Zheng's idea was very simple.

He now possesses a staggering 550 points of destiny value.

"System, give me some points."

As the thought crossed his mind, Xie Zheng felt a surge of pure energy flowing through his limbs and bones.

At the same time, a mysterious feeling lingered in my mind.

Many insights about the Daoist Immortal Scripture came to mind.

Then take complete control.

The Fate Points are being consumed rapidly at a rate visible to the naked eye.

hum!
