Lottery Draw: Sovereign Spark

Lynn did not know how he had made it back to his room. From Custer City's sudden attack to the months he had spent injured and unconscious, everything that had happened had utterly shattered his mental defenses and completely collapsed his world!

The Orc Race.

Had actually produced a deity!

Having read the original Coiling Dragon novel, Lynn naturally understood.

A deity—even the weakest Demigod who had become one by refining a Divine Spark—was worlds apart from a Saint Domain Expert in strength. Even the most monstrous Saint Domain Expert would be utterly helpless before a deity.

The weakest Demigod could easily slaughter a whole group of Saint Domain Experts!

The Orc Race, which had originally been roughly equal in strength to humanity, had completely crushed mankind in overall power simply because it had produced a deity.

That Orc Race deity had not only destroyed humanity's Holy City and killed many human Saint Domain Experts, but had also sparked wars throughout the borders. In the end, he had forced the major human kingdoms to sign agreements and become vassals of the orcs.

And all humans had to change their faith to worship that Orc Race deity—the Beast God!

"I've observed that after this severe injury, the battle qi in your body has been boiling. You are not far from breaking through to the ninth level. Take this Purple Eye Fruit and refine it. It should be enough for you to break through to the ninth level!"

"Remember this! The world has always been a place where the strong devour the weak. This terrible calamity was not meant to make you fall into despair and never recover. It should motivate you to cultivate even harder! Only by becoming strong will you be qualified to protect your loved ones and lead your people out of their predicament!"

"Do not disappoint me!"

"Do not disappoint the Grand Elder who died, nor your wife and children!"

Lynn slumped into his chair, with only Teacher Desman's voice echoing endlessly through his mind.

And encouraged by those words, Lynn slowly regained his fighting spirit.

Grief and self-abandonment!

Would never earn the enemy's pity!

Only great strength!

Could make enemies retreat!

Could protect those he loved and those who loved him!

Could protect his people!

Could fulfill his own wishes!

Lynn's gaze gradually became firm, and he slowly straightened up. A purple fruit resembling an eyeball appeared in his hand, and without hesitation, he swallowed it whole.

Boom!

A surging wave of earthy yellow energy spread outward from Lynn!

Stimulated by the Purple Eye Fruit's medicinal power, the liquefied battle qi within his body boiled like water, crashing against the final realm before the Saint Domain!

Who knew how much time passed? Under the repeated assaults of that boiling liquefied battle qi, the barrier between an Eighth-level Warrior and a Ninth-level Warrior had become incredibly weak, ready to break at a single touch!

Pop!

Lynn seemed to hear the sound of that barrier shattering.

And the earthy yellow Grayrock Battle Qi within his dantian—

Rumble...

—began to undergo a drastic transformation. Every strand of battle qi was changing, changing at its very essence.

Lynn waited quietly for all the battle qi in his dantian to finish transforming.

At first, only a small amount of Grayrock Battle Qi in his dantian had transformed. But as time passed, more and more changed, and the speed grew faster and faster. In the end, it took only ten breaths to completely transform the remaining half.

And just as all the eighth-level Grayrock Battle Qi in his dantian transformed into ninth-level battle qi—

Ding!

A pleasant electronic notification sounded in Lynn's mind.

"Congratulations, Host, on breaking through. The system will now unlock a lottery draw for the Host. Please wait!"

"What was that sound?!"

Lynn was startled, but he was a transmigrator after all. He quickly realized that his system cheat had finally arrived.

"A lottery draw?" Lynn was puzzled.

Soon, his consciousness shifted sharply, and he arrived in an unfamiliar space. Before him stood a massive wheel, divided into wedge-shaped sections. Different images were painted upon those sections, but every image was covered by a thin layer of dense fog, making the details impossible to see.

Only a slender white pointer atop the wheel was clearly visible.

And from the very instant his consciousness entered this space, information abruptly appeared in Lynn's mind.

That information concerned the wheel and the Lottery System.

It turned out that the Lottery System had been attached to him from the moment he transmigrated. However, before this injury, he had never awakened his memories from before transmigration. He had always considered himself a native of this world, so the system had never been activated.

It was only this time, after his soul was injured and he recalled the experiences of his previous life, that the Lottery System had been activated as well.

The remaining information concerned the conditions for activating the Lottery Wheel and the rewards that could be obtained from it.

The condition for activating the Lottery System was simple: every time he advanced a level, it would activate once.

For example, his current advancement from the eighth level to the ninth level, and in the future, breaking through to the Saint Domain, becoming a deity, becoming a midgod...

Each time, he could activate the wheel and draw once.

The Lottery Wheel's rewards were varied: Divine Sparks, Divine Artifacts, bloodlines, insights into laws... it had everything. But they all shared one thing in common: every prize was extremely precious, worthy of being called one of the most valuable treasures in this subsidiary universe of Coiling Dragon.

After reviewing the introduction to the Lottery Wheel that had appeared in his mind, Lynn could not help feeling excited.

He had not expected his cheat to appear when he was at his most helpless and most in need of aid.

He impatiently wanted to begin the draw, but the system informed him that it was not ready yet and told him to wait.

He waited patiently for a moment, until a ding sounded in his mind and the pleasant notification rang out again.

"The Lottery Wheel is ready. Host may begin the draw!"

Lynn's expression shifted. "The Lottery System is ready. I can begin drawing!"

"Draw!"

Following the instructions in his mind, Lynn used his consciousness to flick the white pointer on the wheel.

Whoosh!

The white pointer rapidly began to spin. The thin fog covering the wheel was stirred by the pointer and gradually began to flow.

After spinning several times, the pointer slowly stopped over a wedge-shaped section to Lynn's right. As the pointer stopped, the fog covering that particular section instantly dispersed, revealing the image on the wheel.

Lynn looked closely and saw a lifelike black rat the size of a palm. Its round eyes looked intelligent, while its fur gave off a soft black sheen.

At the very moment the image appeared, the system notification sounded in Lynn's mind.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for drawing the bloodline of the divine beast, the God Devouring Rat!"

"The God Devouring Rat bloodline!" Hearing the notification in his mind, Lynn was overjoyed.

In the Coiling Dragon Universe, divine beasts were heaven's favored children, capable of becoming deities upon reaching adulthood!

And according to the original Coiling Dragon novel, the God Devouring Rat was among the strongest divine beasts. It far surpassed ordinary divine beasts like the Suanni and the Ba Serpent, and was not inferior in the slightest even to unique supreme divine beasts such as the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Wu Kun.

Especially its Innate Divine Ability, God Devouring. Against opponents of the same divine level, unless they possessed a Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact or were Paragon Highgods, they would all be instantly killed!

Furthermore, the God Devouring Rat's physical strength could be improved by digesting Divine Sparks, until its body reached the level of a Sovereign Artifact!

As for its ability to forge Divine Artifacts using Godhead Essence, that ability was also extremely powerful, but Lynn had no mind left to pay attention to it.

A divine beast.

Once it reached adulthood, it could naturally become a deity!

And the God Devouring Rat was invincible among those of the same rank!

In other words, as long as he possessed the God Devouring Rat bloodline, taking revenge would be effortless!

"Moreover, with the God Devouring Rat's innate physical talent, as long as I fuse five profound mysteries, I will definitely become one of the invincible experts beneath the Paragons!" Lynn thought, his entire body trembling with excitement. "With such strength, if I agree to become Death Sovereign's Sovereign's Emissary in exchange for her helping me revive my family—"

"There will definitely be no problem!"

In the blink of an eye, countless thoughts flashed through Lynn's mind. He impatiently wanted to figure out how to load the God Devouring Rat bloodline.

But after drawing the God Devouring Rat bloodline, the Lottery Wheel did not stop.

That incomparably pleasant voice rang out within Lynn's soul once more.

"Ding! It has been detected that the Host missed eight lottery opportunities. A Super Lottery Draw will now be conducted for the Host!"

"A Super Lottery Draw?"

Lynn froze, but quickly realized that before awakening his memories, he had already been an Eighth-level Warrior. If he gained one lottery opportunity for each level he advanced, then he truly should have had eight lottery opportunities.

However, at the time, he had not awakened his memories from Earth, and the system had not been activated. Naturally, there had been no way for him to draw. So now, the system was making it up to him with a Super Lottery Draw!

Why couldn't I have awakened my memories sooner?! Lynn was filled with regret. If he had awakened his memories from his previous life and activated the system earlier, perhaps his wife and children would not have died.

Whoosh!

Just as Lynn was consumed by regret, the white pointer began spinning again. This time, it spun much faster than before, stirring the fog on the Lottery Wheel into constant turbulence.

Finally, the pointer slowly stopped over a wedge-shaped section before Lynn. As it stopped, the fog within that section gradually dispersed, revealing the image engraved beneath it.

It was a crystalline, semi-transparent crystal floating in the air, radiating streams of dark black light!

"What is this?"

Lynn was still searching through his memories of the original novel, trying to match the image before him with an item that had appeared in it.

The system's pleasant voice had already sounded in his soul again.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for drawing one Dark Sovereign Spark!"

"A Sovereign Spark—it's a Sovereign Spark! I drew a Sovereign Spark!"

Lynn could no longer suppress the joy in his heart. He was so excited that he began to cry.

The God Devouring Rat bloodline, a Dark Sovereign Spark!

As long as he cultivated step by step until becoming a Highgod, then refined this Sovereign Spark, there would be no obstacle to asking Death Sovereign to act and revive his wife and children!

They were both Sovereigns.

Death Sovereign could not possibly refuse to give another Sovereign face!

Only after a long while did Lynn's emotions settle. He looked toward the upper-right corner of the wheel, where both the God Devouring Rat bloodline and the Dark Sovereign Spark were stored.

He immediately gave the command with his consciousness, "Load the God Devouring Rat bloodline for me!"
