Ghost Cave.
Just like its name, whenever night fell and the cold wind blew through the gorge, the echoing sounds resembled the howling of ghosts and wolves, giving people goosebumps from head to toe.
In the sky, a red moon rose.
It added a touch of eerie bloodiness to the world.
At the peak of the Ghost Cave.
Two figures were currently holding shovels, grunting as they tossed dirt into the air.
"This dirt is really hard!"
An Yi said helplessly.
This Ghost Cave was very bizarre. It was unknown what it was made of, but the soil seemed to devour spiritual energy.
As a result, the two of them could only use the most primitive method to dig.
Ye Tian looked uncomfortable as he said, "Young Master, I feel like what we're digging... is a grave..."
A shovel stabbed fiercely into the dirt pile.
An Yi stopped his hands and said with a serious face, "You're mistaken. This is not a grave."
"Just now, you even pulled up someone's tombstone..."
"Don't talk nonsense! It will ruin my flawless persona!"
Looking at the solemn An Yi, Ye Tian was half-skeptical.
Although he had lived two lives, he had spent almost his entire previous life immersed in cultivation, and in this life, he hadn't experienced much of society's harsh beatings.
When it came to trickery and deceit, ten of him wouldn't be a match for An Yi.
Thud!
An Yi's shovel seemed to hit something, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
He quickly got to work and forcefully dragged out a rectangular wooden box.
Ye Tian stopped, his face turning pale. "You still say it's not a grave, you've even dragged out a coffin!"
"Don't spout nonsense, this is just a storage cabinet."
An Yi quickly made a shushing gesture at him.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the Dragon Fang Demon Sword appeared in his grasp.
The coffin in front of them... cough, the storage cabinet in front of them looked extremely luxurious. It had a black body, with layers of golden array formations winding around it, looking incredibly profound.
Ye Tian reached out to touch it and pondered, "What an exquisite array. I'm afraid only someone with Soul Formation stage strength could break it."
He used to be at the half-step Soul Formation stage, so he could tell exactly how difficult it would be to break this kind of array.
Because of this, it inevitably made one wonder who the owner of this storage cabinet was.
An Yi reached his hand over.
Ye Tian couldn't help but say, "Don't waste your energy, this array..."
Buzz!
The moment An Yi touched the black storage cabinet, a burst of light flashed, and the golden patterns dimmed.
Ye Tian was so shocked his eyes nearly popped out.
What the hell, this guy actually managed to break it!
Just... just like that?
A streak of black sword energy flashed past.
The Dragon Fang Demon Sword in An Yi's hand had already cleaved the storage cabinet open.
"Holy crap!"
Ye Tian couldn't help but step back twice.
He didn't want to see a skeleton spill out from inside.
After seeing clearly what was inside, Ye Tian was slightly stunned.
It actually wasn't a skeleton... Could it be that this really was a storage cabinet?
"Oh, there really is good stuff."
The corners of An Yi's mouth curled into a smile as he took out a flashlight to illuminate it.
Lying flat inside the coffin was a long, stick-like weapon.
Beside it, there was also a cluster of yellow spiritual energy light!
Curious, An Yi reached in and took out the stick-like weapon.
After taking it out, An Yi was speechless.
This was impressively a long halberd!
What the hell, was this custom-made for Ye Tian?
He just happened to lack a weapon, and then, he has a fortuitous encounter and digs up a long halberd as treasure?
Having a high Destiny Value actually had such benefits?
No wonder those protagonists always had all sorts of fortuitous encounters and romantic escapades.
The shaft of the halberd was pitch-black, and its sharp blade exuded a cold gleam. Heavy spiritual energy lingered around it, emitting a domineering and murderous aura. It was clearly a fierce weapon!
A Sky-Piercer Halberd!
An Yi came from the Blue Planet, so he naturally recognized the style of this halberd at a glance.
He reached his hand further up, and the three characters Coiling Dragon Halberd were impressively written on the shaft!
"Hey now, I just happen to be missing a decent great halberd!"
An Yi clumsily swung the Coiling Dragon Halberd a couple of times and said happily, "I just love this domineering feeling. From now on, I am your new master!"
At this moment, a string of exclamation marks popped up from the system.
"Ding! Friendly reminder: You don't know how to use a halberd!"
"Ding! Friendly reminder: You don't know how to use a halberd!"
"Ding! Friendly reminder: You don't know how to use a halberd!"
An Yi: "..."
He turned around and glanced at Ye Tian.
This guy's Destiny Value had already dropped from 75 to 50 points.
Sure enough...
Forget it!
An Yi sighed and tossed the Coiling Dragon Halberd over.
Ye Tian scrambled to catch it, dumbfounded. "Y-you, what is this..."
"It's yours!"
An Yi gritted his teeth and forced out a fake smile as he said with difficulty.
This Coiling Dragon Halberd looked pretty good.
Of course, compared to the Dragon Fang Demon Sword and the Black Gold Heavy Sword, it was still a bit lacking. It was probably at the level of the Soulless Dagger.
But no matter what, it was still a good weapon that could be exchanged for a lot of money!
Ye Tian stroked the halberd's shaft, and an indescribable feeling washed over him. "This, I cannot accept a reward without having earned it..."
"Then I'll sell it to you, for ten thousand gold coins!" An Yi said seriously.
Ye Tian gripped the Coiling Dragon Halberd and nodded earnestly. "Okay."
"I'm kidding. The Coiling Dragon Halberd is a gift to you. As your boss, I wouldn't be so stingy over a single weapon," An Yi said with a light chuckle.
Ye Tian felt somewhat moved.
He couldn't believe that this stingy and shameless guy would actually gift him a top-tier weapon.
"On second thought, you should just sell it to me. Your sudden generosity makes me a bit uneasy!"
"Get lost!"
An Yi's face darkened. Did he really think he wanted to give it away?!
Right at this moment, the system's crisp notification sound rang out.
"Ding! Ye Tian's Favorability +20! Obtained Profound Earth Spirit Vein!"
Hearing the system's notification, An Yi was greatly shocked.
This dog system is actually bleeding out rewards!
It actually gave him a spirit vein directly!
An Yi suppressed his excitement. He would check these things after getting out; the most urgent task now was to properly deal with this coffin.
At this moment, An Yi turned his attention to the cluster of light inside the coffin.
"Earth Spirit Energy Source!"
After seeing it clearly, An Yi's face darkened.
F***!
Dog system!
...
After waiting for An Yi and Ye Tian to leave.
The red moon above the Ghost Cave became increasingly terrifying.
Blood-colored moonlight spilled down.
In the graveyard, figure after figure knelt down, easily numbering in the hundreds.
"The Blood Demon Sect! Respectfully welcomes the Ancestor!"
An elderly man with a weather-beaten face shouted loudly and knelt down.
"Ah!!"
Mournful screams rose and fell.
The disciples of the Blood Demon Sect who were kneeling on the ground suddenly had their bodies explode, creating a horrifying mist of blood.
"Sect Master!"
Countless young disciples looked at the elderly man in front of them in disbelief.
It seemed they never expected that they would become sacrifices!
The evaporating blood mirrored the red moon in the sky, presenting an increasingly eerie color.
The elderly man was expressionless, quietly watching one Blood Demon Sect disciple after another die tragically, completely unmoved.
After the last disciple fell.
The earth on the grave ahead cracked open, and a wrist as white as jade reached out.
Suppressing the terror in his heart, the elderly man maintained his kneeling posture, bending his waist, not daring to look directly at it.
Crack!
Blood appeared on the elderly man's neck, and he fell to the ground.
"Ancestor, you..."
The elderly man stared in the direction of the grave in disbelief, and then his consciousness faded into a blur.
Crack!
After waiting for everyone to die.
In the grave, loose dirt peeled away, and a completely naked, stunningly beautiful, and bewitching woman stood up from the tomb.
The blood-red moonlight cascaded over her fair, curvaceous figure, creating an eerie sense of beauty.
The woman shot the old man a frigid glance, then swayed her hips and slowly walked away, stepping over the corpses.

"Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty."

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
