[Ding!]
[Dreamwalk Technique (Duo Version) activated!]
[Tonight, the host will appear in the dream of the Joyous Sect's Talisman Master (dream type randomized)!]
When it came to choosing the second target,
Lin Yu didn’t hesitate for a second.
Of course, he would strike while the iron was hot and aggressively pursue Little Fufu, who had already become his soul cultivation partner.
His goal was to quickly elevate their relationship from soul cultivation partners to physical cultivation partners.
After finishing his bath and tidying up,
Lin Yu lay on his bed and began his daily happiness settlement routine.
First… shopping spree!
[System Store]
[——Spiritual Cuisine Recipes——]
[(Kirin Treads on Snow) Price: 500]
[(Breeze Noodles) Price: 500]
[——Chamber Tools——]
[(Ninefold Exquisite Oil) Price: 1000]
[(Feathered Rainbow Gown) Price: 3000]
[Available Spirit Stones: 6,710]
[Ding!]
[3,000 spirit stones spent. Successfully purchased chamber tool ‘Feathered Rainbow Gown’!]
[Ding!]
[Spent…]
The feeling of having spirit stones to spend was just wonderful.
After his shopping spree, Lin Yu skimmed through the descriptions.
For the spiritual cuisine recipes [Kirin Treads on Snow] and [Breeze Noodles], he only gave them a passing glance.
From the recipe knowledge imprinted in his mind, he could tell they were just fancy versions of "tomatoes with sugar" and "plain noodle soup."
His focus was on the chamber tools he had been accumulating:
[Ninefold Exquisite Oil (Chamber use only, for cultivation partners)]
[Description: Refined nine times into divine nectar, a single touch chills the bones with fragrance. Not meant for mortal boudoirs, but a gift from the Jade Pool to kindle passion.]
[Feathered Rainbow Gown (Chamber use only, for cultivation partners)]
[Clouds as sleeves, rainbows as skirts, dancing in the spring light. At a thought, it turns to sheer silk; at a touch, it gleams with radiance.]
Used to the flowery and obscure descriptions,
Lin Yu took a moment to appreciate them.
He then checked the actual items in his inventory.
To him, one looked like a rocket booster, and the other was like a speed-boosting skin.
For the past couple of days, he had been accumulating these tools.
In the coming days, Lin Yu was eagerly looking forward to seeing their true potential unleashed.
With his shopping done,
it was time for his daily lottery draw.
Opening the lottery interface:
[Sect Contribution: 2,240]
[Free Draws: 6]
A total of seventeen draw attempts!
Reading through the descriptions of seventeen items would be enough to write a two-thousand-word essay.
Lin Yu dumped all his sect contributions and free draws into the lottery.
Seventeen needles spun wildly on the massive roulette wheel.
A few dozen seconds later,
The lengthy list of prizes was announced one by one by the system.
Lin Yu skimmed through them—nine out of the seventeen were "old friends."
[Forbidden Zone Exploration Talisman ×3]
[Ghost Hand Talisman ×2]
[Hundred Flowers Dew ×2 bottles]
[Maiden’s Blush ×2 jars]
(Redundant descriptions omitted)
These familiar items didn’t pique Lin Yu’s interest at all.
His attention was entirely on the remaining eight rewards.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained System Store access: Talisman & Spell Section ×2 slots]
[Description: Items in the System Store… refreshed at 7 AM the next day.]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained physical reward: Mundane Head Accessory!]
[Description: A worldly trinket, originally meant for women’s adornment.]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained physical reward: Mundane Hand Accessory!]
[Description: A worldly trinket…]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained secret technique reward: Bone-Penetrating Force Hand!]
[Description: Force pierces fingers, opening the nine orifices; energy enters bones, righting the cosmos. A technique passed down from the True Martial lineage, never meant to leave mortals in suffering.]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained secret technique reward: Celestial Music Theory!]
[Description: Mastery of the five tones and eight notes, turning melodies into heavenly sound. A wave of the hand weaves sonic arrays, dancing freely within the twelve musical modes.]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained physical reward: Qi-Condensing Pill ×2!]
[Description: Treats weak qi and blood, harmonizes yin and yang. Dissolves in three breaths, warming the dantian; circulates fully in one ke (15 minutes).]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! Obtained physical reward: Blood-Reversing Merit Pill ×1!]
[Description: Reverses blood to break through bottlenecks, instantly ascending to the next realm. When meridians flow backward, that is the moment of effortless breakthrough.]
Today’s lottery didn’t offer many eye-catching rewards.
Two more antiques were added to his collection, deepening his reserves.
With talismans and spells now available in the System Store, he’d have more options for purchases tomorrow.
If luck was on his side,
he wouldn’t have to worry about running low on Ghost Hand Talismans or Forbidden Zone Exploration Talismans.
As for the two secret techniques…
They felt more like upgrades or expansions of his existing skill set!
[Bone-Penetrating Force Hand] sounded like a "bone-setting" technique.
Maybe he should open a physiotherapy clinic someday.
Now, Lin Yu could professionally handle every part of the body.
[Celestial Music Theory], on top of his singing skills,
granted him mastery of all musical instruments.
If Lin Yu decided to become an entertainer and plagiarize some songs,
he might not become a global sensation, but he’d definitely make a name for himself.
His brain wasn’t just for decoration anymore!
Compared to the secret techniques,
the two types of pills—three in total—were worth deeper consideration.
From the description, the [Qi-Condensing Pill] seemed to treat physical weakness.
Using it on himself would be a waste.
Better to save it for the right moment and share it with his sect friends.
The [Blood-Reversing Merit Pill], judging by its name,
was likely a cultivation-boosting pill.
In xianxia novels, such items usually came with severe side effects.
But since it was system-granted,
there shouldn’t be any drawbacks… right?
The only thing that made Lin Yu slightly uneasy was…
This pill didn’t specify which cultivation method it enhanced!
When he prepared to take it, there was no prompt to choose which skill to boost—no options at all.
Random enhancement?
No wonder it was called [Effortless Breakthrough]!
…
Late at night,
while the sect members slept soundly,
Acting Sect Leader Chen Qimeng dreamed of her college days at twenty.
Holding a stack of books, she walked with her dormmate Fang toward the university cafeteria.
"Fang, why’d you stop?"
Chen Qimeng paused, realizing her friend wasn’t following.
"I don’t want to be a third wheel," Fang said, pointing ahead.
Chen Qimeng followed her gaze.
There stood Lin Yu, holding two cafeteria meal boxes, walking toward her.
"Chen Qimeng, you’re eating with me today."
His tone was blunt, even a little forceful.
Yet, instead of being annoyed, she felt a warmth in her heart.
…

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
