"Ah, an Emperor-grade cultivation technique might be a bit shabby, but I’ll reluctantly accept it!"
When it came to shamelessness, if Jiang Che claimed to be second, no one would dare call themselves first!
The absurd part was that despite Jiang Che’s utter lack of shame, the old-timers of the Jiang family still had to indulge him.
With god-tier special effects, even a Great Emperor like Jiang Hong couldn’t fully discern the true nature of his faked physique.
But a fake was still a fake. If he ever ascended to the Nine Heavens and faced a Great Emperor in person, his ruse would inevitably be exposed.
Not that it mattered—this young master had the system backing him!
How did he know about the Chaos Azure Lotus Immortal Physique? How could he even mimic it so flawlessly that even a Great Emperor’s projection like Jiang Hong couldn’t see through it?
Simple—his system actually sold the Chaos Azure Lotus Immortal Physique!
Of course, permanent physiques like that came with an eye-watering price tag: a staggering 500 million points!
To be fair, Jiang Che’s system was already quite generous. It rained down points, and the system shop’s prices were downright reasonable.
Unlike Chen Hao or Jiang Ruoxu’s systems, where middlemen jacked up prices by dozens of times.
Permanent, non-renewable resources like immortal or saint physiques were priced sky-high, while things like cultivation techniques or one-time items were dirt cheap.
Both were at the immortal-grade, but while physiques started at several hundred million points, immortal-grade techniques only cost 10 to 20 million.
The physiques were probably looted from some poor soul, but techniques? Just photocopy them! No wonder they were so cheap!
"Gotta squeeze more labor out of the worker bees. Once I’ve farmed enough, I’ll buy a few real immortal physiques to play with."
Fakes were fakes, after all. Jiang Che cultivated the Primordial Human Emperor Scripture, and even with the entire Blue Star’s population paying him "taxes" and his daily dual cultivation sessions with the ladies, stacking buffs upon buffs, his current realm was still only at the 6th-stage Sky Shattering level.
...
"Here! This is the original ‘Palm Scripture.’ I’ve never taken a disciple before—you’re the first to learn this Emperor-grade technique."
Jiang Hong spoke with pride!
He lightly tapped Jiang Che’s forehead, and a faint glow flowed into his consciousness.
Instantly, visions flooded Jiang Che’s mind!
A rugged-faced middle-aged man, whose aura overshadowed heaven and earth, moved with such grandeur that the world itself seemed to pale. A slow raise of his hand... and a divine manifestation stretched countless miles, as if to pierce the heavens. A colossal palm capable of crushing a star.
The universe, contained within a single palm!
Miraculous phenomena erupted until Jiang Che finally grasped the new skill—‘Palm Scripture.’
The hype was real: gripping the sun and moon, plucking stars from the sky, being peerless in the mortal realm, a divine kingdom in the palm...
Great Emperors? Mere mortals! At his current late-stage Sky Shattering cultivation, he could already fake the aura of a high-level Nirvana-stage expert. Once he broke through to the Divine Passage realm... he’d reach the Creation stage!
By the time he became a Martial God, his "masters" would be nothing less than Great Emperor-level powerhouses.
His system’s tier was absurdly high. As his cultivation grew, even more insane items in the system shop would unlock.
The advantage was his!
"Great Emperor Ancestor, my cultivation’s hit a bottleneck... How about some elixirs? Maybe some True Dragon blood or Phoenix essence?"
Jiang Che rubbed his hands together, embodying shamelessness.
"You brat! True Dragon blood? Why don’t we just capture a baby True Dragon for you while we’re at it?" One of the Jiang family elders nearly lost it.
"Really? If you can... make sure it’s a female. I’ve always wanted to be a Dragon Rider!"
"You—!"
Even the Great Emperor Jiang Hong was stunned. This kid... had absolutely no shame!!!
"Ancestors, if you give me enough goodies... I’ll change my surname to Jiang! In life, I’ll be a Jiang; in death, a Jiang ghost!"
"I’ll swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao—I’ll never betray the Jiang family!"
Jiang Che dropped his playful act, turning dead serious.
His sudden solemnity left the Jiang family elders silent.
A Heavenly Dao Oath?
That could work! Force this rebellious brat to swear—no matter how much of a troublemaker he became, he’d never betray the Jiang family. Break the oath, and the backlash from the Heavenly Dao would annihilate him!
Not even a Great Emperor could withstand that kind of karmic retribution!
Ahem. "Young descendant, there’s no need for such an oath. You’re one of us, and with such peerless immortal talent, it’s only right we support you. But if you insist on swearing... we won’t stop you."
Jiang Che scoffed internally. These old foxes were just as thick-skinned!
Translation: "Swear the damn oath already!"
Too bad for them—while they were merely shameless, this young master had no face to begin with!
"Ancestors, with the severance between heaven and earth, can you really deliver treasures to me? I’m young... and afraid of being scammed!"
Jiang Che put on an innocent, hesitant face—like a newbie begging not to be trolled.
"A fair concern. With the realms severed, cross-dimensional transport is difficult... but not impossible."
"It’ll cost ahem a considerable price, but True Dragon blood? That’s pushing it."
"Then how about a few tons of top-grade spirit stones? Or a few acres of premium spirit farmland?"
"......"
"Wait... don’t tell me you can’t even send top-grade spirit stones?"
"......"
Silence.
"Alright, let’s cut the crap. My master told me—my physique is the once-in-10,000-years Chaos Immortal Physique! I’m in my growth phase now... and I need the Jiang family’s resources. You know what the Chaos Immortal Physique means, right? Once I ascend, I’ll lead the Jiang family to the pinnacle of the Nine Heavens!"
No more acting—just pay up!
Jiang Che’s words left the ancestors speechless.
This kid knew he had an immortal physique?
And he had a master?!
A sense of urgency gripped them. They couldn’t let this golden goose get poached!
"Very well. We’ll do our best to meet your demands. The Jiang family recently uncovered a top-grade spirit vein and refined several tons of top-grade spirit stones. But transporting them across realms... the cost might exceed the stones’ value!"
"As for True Dragon essence blood, our reserves are limited. We can spare 10 drops—Nirvana-stage True Dragon blood..."
Jiang Che’s breathing grew ragged. Holy hell, they were loaded!!!
Top-grade spirit stones measured by the ton?!
He’d lowballed himself!
Wait—he shouldn’t have asked for top-grade. He should’ve gone for Saint-grade or even Immortal-grade spirit stones!
The Jiang family, as a leading force in the Nine Heavens, definitely had those!
Meanwhile, Mo Lianxing, who was hiding inside Jiang Che’s Spirit Nurturing Ring, was utterly stunned—completely and utterly stunned! Tons of top-grade spirit stones… she had never even heard of such a thing!
Was this the sheer audacity of a top-tier force from the Nine Heavens?
Truly, sticking with her husband meant reaping the rewards! With him swindling so many treasures this time, he was bound to share a little with her.
saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
spital. Good news: I've bound a system. Bad news: I'm still a baby. "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the middle-aged for being poor — Divorce Comeback System." "Your marriage may have failed, but your luck in love has never run dry. Your childhood sweetheart, out of contact for twenty years, reappears. Her beauty remains, yet her eyes are brimming with tears." [Listen to the childhood sweetheart's sorrowful story.] Chen Zhi looked down at the diaper he was wearing, then at the little childhood sweetheart crying her heart out beside him, and fell into deep thought. Can anyone relate? I'm having a midlife crisis at an age where even rolling over is a struggle.
