First Check-in

"Rewards from the Myriad Worlds—do you have any Supreme Bones, Double Pupils, or Pangu's Essence Blood? If so, toss me a few pounds first, consider it my newbie gift pack."

Qin Yuan spoke.

[Master, the things you mentioned have already been dug out, gouged out, and drained dry. Currently out of stock.]

Qin Yuan: "..."

Well, damn. They really did have that stuff.

You cheats sure work fast—bones dug out on a whim, eyeballs gouged out just as easily, and Pangu got it worst of all, not a single drop of blood left.

"You're something else." Qin Yuan chuckled in praise at the system, then cut to the chase: "Since it's activated, let's start today's check-in."

[Ding, congratulations Master on completing your first check-in. Rewards issued.]

[Ding, congratulations Master on obtaining the technique Pure Yang Divine Art.]

[Ding, congratulations Master on obtaining the Companion Artifact White Tiger Bracelet.]

[Ding, congratulations Master on obtaining five hundred thousand Huaxia Coins.]

Listening to the system's cold female voice, Qin Yuan's eyes lit up slightly.

Perhaps because it was the first check-in, the rewards carried a certain 'newbie gift pack' flavor.

"Pure Yang Divine Art, a body-tempering technique exclusive to the Pure Yang Physique. It enhances kidney essence, boosts vitality, and strengthens the body. Divided into five stages, corresponding to Mortal Body, Spirit Body, Overlord Body, Saint Body, and Divine Body."

"White Tiger Bracelet, also known as the White Tiger Vessel. A token of the Sacred Beast White Tiger, one of the Four Great Sacred Totems. Aids cultivation, collects souls, focuses the mind and calms the heart, and exorcises evil and repels demons."

"Five hundred thousand Huaxia Coins, the common currency of the great Huaxia nation."

Detailed information about the check-in rewards flooded into Qin Yuan's mind.

The body-tempering technique Pure Yang Divine Art could grant humans a physique rivaling demonic beasts—a downright heaven-defying cheat in the world of Full-Time Mage.

With this technique, even without magic, Qin Yuan could stand at the peak.

As for the White Tiger Vessel, it should belong to the same category as Mo Fan's Azure Dragon Vessel from the original story.

The Companion Artifact of the Sacred Totem White Tiger—even if it lacked the Azure Dragon Vessel's versatility, it was still formidable, especially the 'exorcise evil and repel demons' function, which might completely suppress certain dark creatures.

Finally, the Huaxia Coins went without saying. In the All-Magic World, money and resources had a direct proportional relationship.

"Pure Yang Divine Art, first stage mastered, Pure Yang Mortal Body, on par with an Advanced Servant-level Demonic Beast's physique..."

Qin Yuan murmured to himself.

He already possessed the Pure Yang Physique, so after integrating Pure Yang Divine Art, he skipped the entry and minor achievement stages, reaching the first stage's mastery directly.

On par with an Advanced Servant-level Demonic Beast's physique—this already rivaled a High-level Mage.

In other words, Qin Yuan could now potentially kill a High-level Mage.

Killing a High-level Mage before even awakening magic—if this got out, it would surely shake the entire Magic World.

"So this is the White Tiger Vessel? Not a bad look."

Qin Yuan retrieved the White Tiger Vessel from the System Space.

It was a silver bracelet, adorned with black and white secret patterns, carved with four tiger claws and a lifelike little tiger head.

Slipping on the bracelet, it felt cool and comfortable.

"Too bad the check-in didn't grant a Magic Awakening."

Qin Yuan felt a bit regretful.

If possible, he'd still like to learn some magic.

Mastering the elements, vanishing into darkness, Dimensional Summoning, reversing order... Setting aside whether these magics were strong, they were cool and stylish, and that was what mattered.

[Master need not worry. There is one minute until your Self-Awakening.]

The system's voice came through.

"What, Self-Awakening?" Qin Yuan's pupils contracted. He asked instinctively, "System, did you do this too?"

[No, Master. You inherently possess magic, and you also have an Innate Talent.]

The system's answer plunged Qin Yuan into further shock.

Not only could he Self-Awaken magic, but he could also possess an Innate Talent... This was exhilarating.

Just as Qin Yuan was anticipating what kind of magic he would awaken and what Innate Talent he would gain—

"Buzz!"

A strange energy suddenly surged within his body.

Under its influence, Qin Yuan's consciousness was pulled into a starless night sky—this was his mental world.

As if guided by something, Qin Yuan looked in a certain direction.

"Whoosh~"

A flash of light crossed the mental world. An ice-blue hue rapidly approached, and a patch of Ice Blue Star Dust appeared before Qin Yuan's eyes.

Within the Star Dust, seven Star Seeds leaped excitedly, darting about wildly. At the center of the Star Dust, white cold air slowly spread outward.

In just a brief moment, the entire expanse of Star Dust flickered between Ice Blue and Ice White, dreamlike and illusory.

"Ice Element, Innate Ice Spirit Seed."

Qin Yuan subconsciously reached out to touch it, and the low temperature it conducted made even him, a bearer of the Pure Yang Mortal Body, tremble slightly.

After a dizzying spin, Qin Yuan's consciousness broke away and returned to reality.

At that moment, detailed information about the Ice Element and the Innate Spirit Seed surfaced in his mind.

"Innate Spirit Seed, Spirit Ice 'Extreme Cold.'"

"Possesses extreme cold; condensed ice is as hard as rock, not easily broken or melted. 1.5x Ice Element magic amplification, evolves with the rise of Star Dust rank."

Qin Yuan murmured.

He was already stunned into a daze.

There was no need to devour other Spirit Seeds to grow like a Devouring Seed; it evolved with his own cultivation breakthroughs—this was a guaranteed future 'Heavenly Seed.'

Moreover, it had even more potential than an ordinary Heavenly Seed, because it could keep evolving endlessly.

"This Innate Spirit Seed of mine is in no way weaker than an Innate Dual System."

After letting out a sigh of admiration, Qin Yuan sat cross-legged and began Meditative Cultivation, preparing to slightly strengthen the magical energy within the Ice Element Star Dust.

Once the Star Dust grew strong and stable, he could start practicing Star Control.

Finally, it would be time for spell release.

With the assistance of the White Tiger Vessel, Qin Yuan found that he could quickly focus his attention without a single stray thought of distraction.

Perhaps this was the 'Focus Mind and Calm Heart' effect of the White Tiger Vessel.

Having just begun his cultivation, Qin Yuan felt very good about it.

Soon, an hour passed.

While Qin Yuan was immersed in Meditative Cultivation, a series of footsteps came from outside the door, light in sound.

Before, Qin Yuan definitely wouldn't have heard them, but now his physical constitution rivaled that of an Advanced Servant-level Demonic Beast, so he could hear them with perfect clarity.

Qin Yuan gathered his mind, rose from the ground, and looked towards the door with a smile at the corner of his mouth.

The footsteps stopped.

At the doorway, a woman of peerless beauty stood gracefully. In her infinitely tender gaze was a trace of dependence.

She had a head of silver-white long hair, wore a thin snow-white robe, and possessed a curvaceous figure with an elegant bearing. Every move she made exuded the charm of a mature older sister.

Her features were stunningly beautiful, her skin fair, and beneath her long, delicate eyelashes were a pair of pure, snow-like eyes, mysterious and enchanting.

She was like an Ice Fairy stepping out from a blizzard.

Cold, ethereal, otherworldly.

"Little Yuan."

Qin Yuer's voice was soft as she looked at the youth before her, her longing heartfelt.

Ever since she could master the power of ice and snow, she had joined the academy and, relying on her outstanding talent and formidable strength, quickly became a National Academy Team Member.

This also meant she had rarely returned home recently. Even though they could meet through video calls on their phones, it ultimately lacked a sense of reality.
