Is it a major overhaul against the current, or a puppet controlled by fate

His name was Su Ji.

This was his first day of transmigration.

No, to be precise, it was the first day of breaking through the "amnesia of rebirth."

Dying from staying up late playing on his phone and then transmigrating wasn’t exactly a fresh plot.

But jerking off once and suddenly awakening memories of Earth…

Well, it might not be unprecedented, but it was certainly unheard of.

As for why he had jerked off in the first place…

That was a short story…

Knock knock knock!

The wooden doorframe rattled from the impact.

A soft, sweet voice called from outside: "Senior Brother, haven’t you stabilized your chaotic spiritual roots yet? My time is limited..."

Damn chaotic spiritual roots my ass…

With a flood of Earth memories still fresh in his mind, Su Ji hadn’t fully sorted out what was happening here.

But it wasn’t a big deal.

Judging by this dialogue, this was a Joyful Union Sect opening, right?

This kind of plot—he knew it well.

His little brother was about to get a workout.

"Junior Sister, come in..."

As soon as Su Ji responded, the door creaked open.

A pair of snow-white legs, tinged with a hint of pink, stepped inside first.

Her steps were light, and she wasn’t wearing shoes.

The girl’s crimson robes brushed past the threshold, starkly out of place in Su Ji’s shabby little room.

A fox mask, playful and cunning, hung askew on her head, leaving her face uncovered.

When she saw Su Ji, her eyes brightened instantly, her lips curling into a faint smile as dimples appeared on her cheeks.

"Senior Brother Su Ji, we only have the time of one cup of tea left. We’ll have to move quickly~"

Su Ji suddenly felt his spiritual roots weren’t as stable as he thought.

Innocent yet tinged with a hint of seduction.

Was this the Joyful Union Sect’s specialty?

Were the perks this good?

Well, Su Ji happened to be… very into this.

But one cup of tea’s worth of time? Who did she think he was?

Extra rounds!

They had to go for extra rounds!

"At least half an hour, right?"

The girl bit her lip with her little fangs, a puzzled look on her face. "Half an hour to break through to Qi Refining? Does Senior Brother have some kind of… condition?"

Su Ji: "..."

Just then, his memories finally caught up.

This wasn’t the Joyful Union Sect at all.

In fact, it was the exact opposite—the Love-Longing Sect.

Enter my Love-Longing Sect, know my love-longing pain…

Meaning this girl in front of him was most likely a lovesick fool pining for someone else?

Damn, another good cabbage ruined by a pig.

But somehow, that made it even more thrilling.

"Senior Brother Su Ji, please sit cross-legged and calm your mind."

The girl’s voice pulled Su Ji back from his thoughts.

He obeyed, settling into a meditative posture.

She glided behind him, placing a warm, delicate hand against the vital point on his back.

Her fingers were smooth, and even through the thin fabric of his robe, he could feel their warmth.

Su Ji stiffened almost imperceptibly.

Noticing his tension, the girl chided, "Senior Brother, relax. Don’t turn around."

Her tone was firm.

Then, a stream of pure spiritual energy flowed into Su Ji’s body.

"Between the six directions, within the four seas."

"Illuminated by sun and moon, brushed by stars."

"Marked by seasons, measured by the Great Year!"

"Some die young, some live long."

"Only the sage attains the Dao!"

Her voice, urgent now, whispered by his ear: "Now, Senior Brother—strike! Charge!"

The spiritual energy she channeled guided Su Ji’s own meager reserves, merging into a single current.

Su Ji’s instincts kicked in. He gathered all his strength and rammed it against the invisible barrier inside him.

Pop—

A nearly imperceptible shattering sound echoed within him.

Instantly, spiritual energy far purer than before surged through his dantian and meridians.

An indescribable comfort spread through his limbs.

Qi Refining—success!

Then, a voice rang in Su Ji’s ears, one that left him slightly stunned.

[First breakthrough to Qi Refining achieved. Obtained one Heavenly Mandate blessing…]

[Please select one of the following Heavenly Mandates.]

……

[Heavenly Mandate ①: A Gentleman Hides His Tools]

[Grade: White]

[Effect: You may retract your "great tool" into your abdomen, rendering it immune to all external harm until death.]

……

[Heavenly Mandate ②: When Yin and Yang Are Inverted…]

[Grade: White]

[Effect: Your gender will be swapped once.]

……

[Heavenly Mandate ③: Against Heaven, Become Immortal (White)]

[Grade: White]

[Effect: Randomly obtain a Green-grade Heavenly Mandate.]

……

Heh.

Su Ji’s lips twitched, threatening to curl into a grin.

Not even an AK could suppress it—let alone a JK.

Sure, these Heavenly Mandates sounded like they’d let him dominate the world, but their actual effects were… questionable.

But did that matter?

Hell no.

What mattered was—his golden finger had arrived!

It wouldn’t take many years before his name would be whispered in the winds of this world…

But before Su Ji could indulge in his fantasies any longer—

"Mm? Senior Brother looks so happy—is it because of your Heavenly Mandate?"

The sweet voice that had once entranced him now sounded like a vengeful ghost.

His so-called Junior Sister had somehow appeared right in front of him again.

Su Ji’s heart lurched, and a flash of killing intent nearly surged out—

What kind of trick is this? Mind reading?

Or has my transmigrator status been exposed? Is this a setup?

How does she know about my cheat?!

Before he could even consider "silencing her," the girl continued:

"My initial Heavenly Mandate was Blue-grade. Senior Brother looks so pleased—could yours be Purple?"

Wait—

Your initial Heavenly Mandate?

Su Ji’s mind raced.

You’re telling me… everyone has this?!

This world runs on cheats?!

And Blue-grade sounded ten times stronger than his White!

Su Ji quickly decided to fish for information. He waved his hands dismissively. "Nothing that impressive. Mine’s Blue too."

"Mmm. Every cultivator gains a Heavenly Mandate blessing upon breaking through a major realm."

"White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange, Red, Prismatic."

"Initial Heavenly Mandates usually aren’t too high. Most Qi Refining cultivators get Green-grade."

"For Senior Brother to start with Blue is already one in a hundred. The path to Golden Core is within reach."

Su Ji’s JK-suppressed grin was now thoroughly flattened.

Not only was this not a god-tier start—it was a disastrous one.

Average people got Green-grade?

He got three Whites?

How am I supposed to play this?!

[Please select a Heavenly Mandate soon, or forfeit the opportunity.]

Hearing the prompt, Su Ji could only grit his teeth and think: "Against Heaven, Become Immortal."

At least a random Green-grade would put him on par with the average joe…

Su Ji: "???"

JK, come back—I need you to suppress my grin again.

[Against Heaven, Become Immortal (White)] triggered, randomized into [Against Heaven, Become Immortal (Green)].

[Against Heaven, Become Immortal (Green)] triggered, randomized into [Against Heaven, Become Immortal (Blue)].

……

[Against Heaven, Become Immortal (Red)] triggered, randomized into [Romance Options (Prismatic)].

Wait—

Why did the White-grade Mandates sound so badass, while the Prismatic one had such a ridiculous name?

Still grumbling, Su Ji checked his new Mandate.

[Heavenly Mandate: Romance Options]

[Grade: Prismatic]

[Effect: When conversing with any female cultivator who matches your aesthetic preferences, you may trigger Romance Options. Your choices may lead to mysterious rewards or deadly pursuits.]

So, in the Love-Longing Sect, talking to Junior Sisters and Senior Sisters could trigger romance options?

Was this normal?

No.

But was it fun?

Hell yes.

But then—

Something even more abnormal arrived.

Su Ji took a closer look and was shocked to discover he actually possessed two Heavenly Mandates?

【Heavenly Mandate: Glimpse of Fate】

【Grade: Black】

【Effect: Obtained after collecting six different grades of ‘Rebellion for Immortality.’ Allows the user to peer into the ‘predetermined future’ once every seven days.】

Beneath the Glimpse of Fate, there was a line of fine print:

(Will you become a great cultivator defying the tides of fate… or a puppet dancing on the strings of the Heavenly Mandate?)
