Within the Primordial World, there was a certain immortal mountain.
On the left side of the immortal mountain was a mountain stream, where a spiritual spring gushed forth! It fell onto the bodies of those Spiritual Roots and spirit herbs...
This place belonged to the most ordinary kind of immortal mountain in the Primordial World. Since Spiritual Roots were everywhere and Innate Spiritual Qi filled the heavens, immortal mountains were countless.
As everyone knew, Spiritual Roots could transform into innate living beings. Yet after such a long time, not a single one had appeared. After who knew how many Yuanhui had passed, a Spiritual Root with self-awareness had finally appeared in this mountain!
However... this Spiritual Root seemed a little confused...
Chen Tian: I'm confused by your freaking stars!
Chen Tian looked at the scene before him with a depressed expression. Some memories bestowed by the Heavenly Dao had appeared in his mind, and he felt like crying as he looked at the azure sky.
"Who did I offend? I was only watching the Eastern Ying Witch's evil magic, yet I actually crossed over? And it's the Primordial World, of all places!" Chen Tian sat on a rock and complained, "Crossing over is one thing, but how did I become a blade of grass? Grass! I'm a plant!!!"
At this moment, Chen Tian could move with the wind, but... he couldn't run freely wherever the wind took him...
"Don't let me find out who messed with me! Otherwise, I'll definitely make your face bloom with chrysanthemums. By then..."
Ding—The Myriad Worlds System has found its host. Begin binding?
At that moment, something resembling a screen appeared before Chen Tian's eyes. Those were the only words written on it!
"The system! I knew a transmigrator's essential cheat couldn't possibly fail to appear!" Chen Tian was extremely excited and then pressed "Yes."
Ding—The Myriad Worlds System is beginning the binding process... 1%... 24%... 68%... 94%... 100%... Binding successful!
"This is great! System, what use are you?" Chen Tian recalled the novels he had read before. Those systems had been ridiculously powerful, right? They could completely punch through Zixiao Nursing Home and kick down Sumeru Kindergarten!
Ding—Reporting to the host, this system is the Myriad Worlds System. In other words, this system possesses the functions of every system in the myriad worlds. Whether it's acting cool, being a Godly Tycoon, livestreaming, insulting people, mediating fights, reporting others, or even being a salted fish, Sleeping, or becoming stronger by watching the show, it has them all!
"Wooooah!!!" Chen Tian was thrilled. How could he not be? Other transmigrators were already satisfied with one system and worshiped the heavens and earth in gratitude. But he could obtain all the systems from the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Worlds!
"Right, are these functions permanent, temporary, or do they switch?" Chen Tian thought for a while before asking. If the functions had to be switched one by one, or were only temporary and disappeared the next day, that would be no fun.
Ding—Reporting to the host, all system functions will permanently remain within the host's body. However, the host must improve his cultivation realm to obtain them!
"Improve my cultivation realm?"
Ding—That's right. Realms below the Heavenly Immortal realm are irrelevant. Once above the Heavenly Immortal realm, every time you advance one realm, you may choose one type of system to accompany you. Moreover, every system you choose will permanently remain within your body! For example, welfare functions such as Sign-in, Fishing, and Lucky Draw will all be preserved forever, until the host uses them!
"The system is freaking awesome!!!" Chen Tian shouted.
Ding—The host has been detected to be in the Primordial World. You have no cultivation technique, no body refinement, and no innate talent. The system will reward the host with one chance to choose a system! Would you like to use it?
Chen Tian looked at the words before him with a speechless expression. Once there had been Huang Long, who had nothing at all; now there was Chen Tian, who had nothing at all again...
"Of course I'm using it!" Chen Tian pressed "Yes."
Ding—Please choose a system function...
The next second, ten options appeared before his eyes: Sign-in, Livestreaming, Godly Tycoon, Lucky Draw, Summoning, Exchange, Sleeping, Seek Death, Chat Group, and Salted Fish.
Chen Tian understood. It wasn't that he could casually think of a function and have the Myriad Worlds System create it. Rather, the Myriad Worlds System had selected these for him to choose from.
Chen Tian looked at the ten choices on the screen. Godly Tycoon? That would be a hundred percent useful in the modern world, but in this Primordial World, where Heavenly Immortals were as common as dogs and Grand Unitys walked everywhere, what use would it be? He decisively passed!
As for Sign-in, that kind of thing depended on luck. After all, you never knew what you would receive from signing in. But Chen Tian was currently only a blade of grass and couldn't even move. He wouldn't be able to choose another system until he reached the Heavenly Immortal realm, so the Sign-in System couldn't help him.
Livestreaming, Lucky Draw, Summoning, and Exchange were more or less the same. As for the Chat Group... it was just three words. How did he know what kind of Chat Group it was?
As for Seek Death... Chen Tian wondered if he could even move. He could only move with the wind; he couldn't even run!
That left only Sleeping and Salted Fish. Sleeping was pretty good—he could become stronger by sleeping—but who knew how long he would have to sleep? Would he become a Heavenly Immortal when he woke up?
What if some mighty cultivators came here to fight? Although he didn't know whether that would happen, what if it did?
Thus, only the Salted Fish System remained!
As its name suggested, the Salted Fish System meant that if one could sit, one absolutely didn't stand, and if one could lie down, one absolutely didn't sit! It would completely turn him into a genuine salted fish! Moreover, there were plenty of rewards on the path to becoming a salted fish!
This was practically designed specifically for Chen Tian!!
"It's you, Salted Fish System!" Chen Tian chose the Salted Fish System. The scene before his eyes changed—or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that it vanished...
"Me???" Chen Tian stared in bafflement, then went mad cursing the system's ancestors tens of millions of times!
What the heck? Could it be that the system had gone off work? But it wasn't even dark yet!
In the end, Chen Tian lay on the rock with tears in his eyes. Suddenly, however, a voice sounded beside his ear!
Ding—The host has lain down and begun being a salted fish. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the cultivation technique "Hongmeng Scripture." Would you like to learn it?
"So that's how it is!!" Chen Tian understood once more. Salted fish, huh? If you didn't become a salted fish, how could the system give you benefits?
Chen Tian had only begun being a salted fish, and the system had directly given him something good!!
The Hongmeng Scripture—anything bearing the words "Hongmeng" was extraordinary! One had to remember that Chaos had come from the shattering of Hongmeng! Hongmeng stood above Chaos!
"Learn!" Chen Tian spoke inwardly.
A warm current then flowed through Chen Tian's mind, causing him to inexplicably memorize a passage of text! He originally didn't recognize the characters written above, yet he could somehow read what they were. It was incredibly wondrous.
Chen Tian began cultivating according to the Hongmeng Scripture! In an instant, all the Innate Spiritual Qi in the immortal mountain gathered together!
"Buzz...!"
Then, the Innate Spiritual Qi gathered upon Chen Tian, the blade of grass, and the grass gradually dissipated...
Slowly, ever so slowly, a fine white powder appeared where the blade of grass had been... No! It was bone!
Then came blood and flesh!
In the end, it transformed into a person lying on the ground, still completely naked!
When this person opened his eyes, he looked himself over...
"I... I've... transformed into human form???" Chen Tian was dumbfounded. What the heck?? This fast?? And... didn't transforming into human form attract heavenly lightning???
Chen Tian then learned that the Hongmeng Scripture had changed the constitution of his immortal grass body, ultimately transforming him into a human!
It could be said that Chen Tian was a human now, but also not a human. Because of the Hongmeng Scripture, he had been transformed into a human, while an immortal grass still existed within his body. His outer self was human!
Yet no one else could discover this. They would think he had always been this way!
Simply put, Chen Tian had not evolved from an ape into a human, nor had Nuwa created him. Rather, he was a human created by Hongmeng. It could be said that Chen Tian's body had already reached the level of Hongmeng! He stood above everyone else!
He was indeed human, but if one calculated it properly, he was the ancestor of humanity, because he could be said to be the human who had survived from Hongmeng.
"The Hongmeng Scripture truly is something from the Hongmeng Era. What do you mean one year to establish a foundation and two years to form a Golden Core? That's ridiculously weak, okay?" Chen Tian paused, then said, "But... the Hongmeng Scripture says that an immortal grass is still gestating inside me... Could it be that I'm going to give birth to a son??"
When he thought about giving birth to a son, Chen Tian's face turned constipated...
"Forget it, forget it. It's too early to think about this now."
"Now I have two choices. Either I enter Seclusion and break through directly to the Human Immortal realm, then choose a second system once I break through to the Heavenly Immortal realm! Or I become a salted fish..." After struggling for one second, Chen Tian decisively created a set of clothes and a cave abode, then lay down. "Cultivate? Cultivation is impossible. I won't cultivate in this lifetime! I don't know any divine abilities, and I don't even have an immortal treasure. I'd rather go dream about fairy sisters!"
