Doomsday Safe House

[Name: Yang Shi]

[Identity: Sole heir of the Yang family, Beggar]

[Lifespan: 18/70]

[Realm: Second Layer of the Body Tempering Realm]

[Spiritual Root: None]

[Comprehension: 20]

[Luck: 10]

[Talent: Joker (Mortal Grade), Bittersweet (Mortal Grade)]

[Skill: Basic Fist Technique (Superficial), Dog Beating Staff Technique (Improving)]

[Status: Injured, Hungry, Cold]

Tapping on the talents to glance at their descriptions, Yang Genshuo couldn't help but be amused.

[Joker (Mortal Grade): Possesses a unique attitude toward life and an optimistic spirit; slightly increases Comprehension.]

[Bittersweet (Mortal Grade): Efficiency fluctuates significantly based on mood; +20% when happy, -20% when depressed.]

"Fine, the talents are certainly spirited. No wonder the starting point is to run for his life."

Although Yang Shi didn't have any outstanding attributes or a Spiritual Root, these two white Mortal Grade talents even had a Bond, making for a rather interesting combination.

Yang Genshuo liked optimistic people; even misplaced optimism was better than accurate pessimism.

"Comprehension is 10 points higher than the average person, which is not bad."

Other than that, there were no highlights.

Besides the Character Card, he could also use the [Incense Value] he had just obtained.

[Incense Value has infinite uses and is the bond between you and your descendants. (More functions will be unlocked as the family grows.)]

Currently, he could only use one function:

[Divine Manifestation: Can transmit messages to descendants through omens and text; 1 Incense Value per message.]

"I can leave him messages; this is crucial."

Beyond these basic functions, Yang Genshuo could only drag his perspective to look at the surrounding situation.

A nameless graveyard in the wilderness covered in white snow.

Beyond the graveyard, his vision became blurred. He could only see clearly within a 100-meter radius of Yang Shi; anything beyond that was just a vague outline.

To the south, he could faintly make out an ancient, small city.

After the game time stopped flowing, a [Reward Countdown] appeared on the right side of the screen.

30 minutes. If no action was taken, it would default to no reward.

Yang Genshuo would, of course, grant Yang Shi a reward to verify if this strange game could truly transport items from his hands into the game world.

If items can be transferred between the two worlds, that would be incredible.

Hmm, what should I give him?

He stood up and paced around the study, constantly thinking about Yang Shi's current situation.

A wounded beggar with low strength, no fixed home, and constantly going hungry.

The game shows that the sacrifice happens once a year. As the only descendant who can worship me, I must first ensure he survives until next year.

Only then can I build a sustainable system of worship and rewards.

Under the pressure of the countdown, he couldn't think everything through perfectly, so he prioritized what was important.

What do I have right now that can best achieve this goal?

He looked around and saw the self-heating rice and canned food he had just taken out of his underground safe house.

Suddenly, Yang Genshuo's eyes lit up.

"Got it!"

Outside Qingshi County, at the nameless graveyard.

After finishing his worship, Yang Shi looked apprehensive and somewhat guilty.

After all, severing ties with one's ancestor sounded like something that would get you a beating.

"Old Ancestor, please forgive me. I had no choice; this grudge is just too great. I'm just a beggar with no spiritual roots. Forget about immortal cultivation; even my martial arts talent is mediocre. I'd struggle to even beat the guard dog at the gate."

"Ancestor, from now on, I shall be called Liu Shi. May our paths cross again if fate allows. Goodbye!"

"If I ever have a great stroke of luck and become an Innate Grandmaster, I'll change my name back to Yang, or... you can take the loss and change your surname to mine."

After saying this, Yang Shi felt much lighter. He knew his words were unfilial, but he understood his own constitution. If he continued to be blinded by hatred, he would lose his only advantage and end up achieving nothing in this life.

But inexplicably, Yang Shi's heart tightened.

A cold wind blew from behind, scattering the ashes.

A massive golden palm drifted out from the grave.

Slap!

Yang Shi was sent sprawling by the blow. Golden light overflowed, coalescing into two large characters before the grave:

"Unfilial Grandson!"

Yang Shi: "!"

He glanced left and right. Only his own footprints marked the white, snowy ground. Given that he had just finished the sacrificial rites, this divine power was clearly...

Thud!

Yang Shi dropped to his knees and began kowtowing frantically.

"Spare me, Old Ancestor! Spare me, Old Ancestor!"

"I was just possessed by a ghost!"

"What kind of evil spirit dared to occupy my body? My ancestor is an Immortal; he will not tolerate your insolence!"

The air fell into silence.

Yang Shi coughed twice and said, "Ahahaha~ Old Ancestor, it seems the evil spirit was so terrified of your majesty that it has already fled."

Watching Yang Shi's clumsy acting, Yang Genshuo's mouth twitched. He suppressed the urge to slap him again.

It cost 1 Incense Value each time, and he only had 9 points left. He couldn't afford to waste them; he needed to save them for critical moments to relay information to Yang Shi.

Meanwhile, having finished his test, Yang Genshuo had already selected a reward for Yang Shi.

"Go! My Doomsday Safe House!"

[Reward complete]

[To avoid unpredictable game bugs, text information inherent to the rewarded item will be erased during transmission; only the item name will be retained]

With a thunderous boom!

A small house reinforced with thick steel plates on all sides landed on the empty lot next to the grave, kicking up a massive cloud of dust.

Yang Shi's eyes widened as he stared at the house in the dust, his mouth forming a perfect "O."

"My... my Old Ancestor, what kind of great Immortal are you!"

Yang Shi looked at the humble grave once more, his expression now filled with reverence.

[Your descendant Yang Shi has witnessed the divine power of his ancestor and has become more devout toward you. Incense Value +5]

"Good, I can say five more sentences."

"But for now, I've already put everything I need to say inside the house. I'll let him explore it himself."

After confirming that he could bestow his Safe House upon Yang Shi, Yang Genshuo wrote out a full page of instructions.

He wanted to help Yang Shi make proper use of his Safe House.

Inside, there were enough supplies stored to sustain one person for an entire year!

"It's up to you, my unfilial grandson."

"It's so big? Is this all for me?"

Yang Shi tentatively asked toward the ancestral grave, but no divine miracle answered him.

He cautiously stepped into the steel Safe House, the door of which was already standing open.

What met his eyes was an extremely tidy and orderly modern space. The stainless steel construction made the Safe House appear cold yet highly organized.

The staggered shelves and cabinets were filled with jars and canisters that Yang Shi could not understand.

In the center of the room sat a square table with a letter resting on top.

Yang Shi opened the letter.

"To my dear descendant, Yang Shi:"

"My name is Yang Genshuo. By the time you read this letter, I will have already died."

"But not entirely."

"My soul has awakened, and I know that you are the only descendant of my Yang clan."

"This house is a Safe House I once possessed in the mortal realm. It contains some good things I used in the past. I am bestowing it upon you now; cherish the supplies inside."

"Below is an introduction to this Safe House:"

"This house stores a large amount of food, as well as some advanced tools you may have never seen before."

"."

"."

Because the time for the reward was limited, Yang Genshuo had only written down the key information, telling him to use the items inside without hesitation.

After all, for a place that looked like it belonged in ancient times, 21st-century technology was a bit too advanced.

After reading it, Yang Shi suddenly understood everything.

"The Old Ancestor calling me 'dear descendant' shows he has me in his heart; he wasn't truly angry with me."

"Thank you, Old Ancestor! Thank you, thank you~"

"Love you, Old Ancestor!"

Your descendant Yang Shi feels the care from his ancestor and has become more devout toward you. Incense Value +5

"Your focus is completely wrong, hey!"

Veins bulged on Yang Genshuo's forehead.
