"Dan Emperor... Gu He?"
In an exquisitely furnished antique room, a middle-aged man wore a complicated expression as he muttered to himself.
"I transmigrated? This is the world of Battle Through the Heavens, and I even became Dan Emperor Gu He?"
That was right. The middle-aged man was a transmigrator from Blue Star.
Just moments ago, he had fully absorbed the memories within this body and learned his current identity.
This was the world of Battle Through the Heavens.
In his previous life, he had been an avid webnovel reader, capable of staying up for days and nights on end to finish a novel.
This time, he had been reading a harem novel and had fought through three consecutive all-nighters, only to drop dead on the spot.
When he woke up, he discovered that he had transmigrated and become Dan Emperor Gu He from Battle Through the Heavens.
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do."
"From now on, I am Dan Emperor Gu He." Having integrated all the memories, Gu He spoke calmly within the room.
He had read Battle Through the Heavens no fewer than three times, and he still remembered its plot very clearly.
He had even felt some regret over Dan Emperor Gu He's fate.
To sum up Gu He's life in one sentence, his early years had been glorious, while his later years had been lonely and bleak.
In his youth, Gu He had won first place in the Jia Ma Empire's Alchemy Convention. After being recruited by the Misty Cloud Sect, he became an honorary elder of the sect.
With the Misty Cloud Sect's vast resource support, Gu He had flourished. His Art of Alchemy advanced by leaps and bounds, and in just ten short years, he became a Sixth-grade Alchemist, while his cultivation reached the Dou Wang realm.
He was known as Dan Emperor Gu He!
At the same time, he was also the Jia Ma Empire's number one alchemist.
This had been Gu He's most glorious and dazzling moment.
However, after the protagonist Xiao Yan appeared, Gu He's brilliance was completely overshadowed.
The Heavenly Flames were snatched away by Xiao Yan.
Even the woman he loved fell for Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yan ruined their wedding day.
In the end, even the Art of Alchemy that Gu He had been so proud of was surpassed by Xiao Yan.
It had to be said that before Xiao Yan, Gu He had been a complete and utter failure.
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
"Since I've transmigrated here, I must change my fate!"
Thinking of his fate in the original novel, determination filled Gu He's eyes.
This time, he absolutely could not let Xiao Yan trample him beneath his feet.
"Ding. The Ten Thousandfold Return for Disciple System has completed its awakening. Congratulations, Host, for receiving a beginner's gift pack."
"Would the Host like to open the beginner's gift pack?"
At that moment, a gentle female voice suddenly rang out in Gu He's mind.
A system?
Hearing the voice in his mind, Gu He was briefly stunned before immediately coming to his senses.
Was this his golden finger?
That made sense. How could a transmigrator possibly be without a golden finger?
Gu He was ecstatic and hurriedly asked, "System, can you explain what functions you have?"
The instant Gu He finished speaking, he felt a stream of information flood into his mind.
A moment later, Gu He understood the system's functions.
The Ten Thousandfold Return for Disciple System, as its name suggested, was a system related to masters and disciples.
No matter what he bestowed upon his disciples, it could trigger the system's return mechanism.
The return multiplier was random.
It could be onefold or twofold!
It could also be tenfold or hundredfold!
It could even be thousandfold or ten-thousandfold!
However, the Disciple System also had several restrictions.
First, each disciple could only trigger the system's Ten Thousandfold Return mechanism three times per month.
Second, items returned by the system could not trigger the system's Ten Thousandfold Return mechanism.
Third, the Host's disciples had to reach an eight-point system rating before they could trigger the return mechanism.
These three restrictions were clearly meant to limit him and prevent him from exploiting bugs.
Would I be that kind of person?
Gu He thought helplessly.
Still, even with those three restrictions, the Disciple System's effects remained extremely terrifying.
Gu He believed that with the Disciple System, he would definitely be able to change his fate.
Then Gu He suddenly remembered that he still had an unopened beginner's gift pack. Without hesitation, he said, "System, open the beginner's gift pack!"
"Ding. Congratulations, Host, on successfully opening the beginner's gift pack."
"Ding. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the divine ability—Empowerment!"
"Ding. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining an Immortal-like Demeanor!"
"Ding. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a Seven Orifice Exquisite Pill Heart!"
"Ding. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the divine ability—Void Projection!"
"Ding. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining one Nine-star Dou Saint Trial Card!"
Hearing the system's string of notifications, Gu He could not help swallowing.
He had not expected this beginner's gift pack to be so generous.
It had given him so many good things!
"The above items have been distributed to the System Space. Please check them, Host." After the gentle female voice finished speaking, it fell silent.
Looking at the treasures inside the System Space, Gu He took a deep breath and barely calmed himself down.
"System, extract the divine ability—Empowerment!" Gu He immediately said to the system.
As soon as Gu He finished speaking, a flash of spiritual light shot into his mind.
In an instant, Gu He received a profound set of information in his mind—the cultivation method and insights for the Empowerment Divine Ability.
A moment later, Gu He slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of excitement flashed through them.
This Empowerment Divine Ability was simply too powerful!
Anything he had mastered—cultivation techniques, Dou Skills, secret arts, cultivation insights, and more...
Even Dou Qi cultivation itself could be directly passed on to disciples through the Empowerment Divine Ability.
Gu He's eyes brimmed with excitement. This Empowerment Divine Ability was practically tailor-made for him.
The Empowerment Divine Ability and the Disciple System were an absolutely perfect combination.
A smile appeared on Gu He's face as he continued looking toward the System Space.
"System, extract the Immortal-like Demeanor!"
As soon as he spoke, Gu He felt an incomparably mysterious power envelop his entire body.
It felt warm and comfortable.
At the same time, Gu He could feel subtle changes taking place in his body.
A faint luster appeared on the skin of his body, turning it incomparably fair, as though it were carved from jade.
Not only that, but under the transformation of this mysterious power, Gu He's face and figure also underwent subtle changes.
Already handsome to begin with, Gu He's features became even more refined, and his body proportions grew even more perfect.
Only after a while did the abnormalities occurring to Gu He's body gradually cease.
Curious, Gu He walked up to a mirror in the room and looked at his reflection.
At that instant, a trace of amazement flashed through Gu He's eyes.
The person in the mirror was elegant and strikingly handsome, tall and well-built, with not a scrap of excess fat anywhere on his body.
Beyond that, he had gained an ethereal, transcendent aura. Coupled with his handsome face, he looked like an immortal descended to the mortal world.
Damn, I'm handsome!
Looking at himself in the mirror, Gu He could not help becoming narcissistic.
If he were a woman, he probably would not be able to resist marrying himself at all costs.
