Sign-in Ninth-Rank Reward: Supreme Dao Heart

[Bonus task failed.]

The moment he saw these words, Qin Wangchuan jerked his head up, his first thought being:

"Did I not beat them enough??"

"Tsk, besides, how come I didn't know I'd been humiliated?"

On second thought, a brain-dead system doing brain-dead things was only to be expected.

He shook his head.

His gaze shifted to the "Sign-in" text on the system panel.

[Sign in at different locations to randomly obtain simulation attempts, cultivation techniques, items, or Spirit Stone rewards.]

(Note: Considering the gap between the host's current strength and the difficulty of the tasks, this system has specifically unlocked the [Sign-in Function] as an auxiliary mechanism. This function is designed to provide the host with additional growth paths, helping the host accumulate resources and improve strength more quickly.)

(Please use it with gratitude, host!)

How thoughtful.

Giving him a sign-in function because it figured he couldn't complete the tasks, letting him reap rewards while lying flat.

But seriously, system, why don't you go get yourself treated?

Do you have any idea how I unlocked this function?

If he weren't already used to it, he would have been so angry he'd have laughed.

"Sign in."

Qin Wangchuan whispered in his heart.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a Tier 9 reward: Supreme Dao Heart!]

As the system prompt faded, in an instant—

A power as vast as a galaxy erupted from within Qin Wangchuan's body.

The Supreme Dao Heart condensed at his heart, transforming into a brilliant golden core of light, slowly rotating like a miniature sun.

--Supreme Dao Heart, the source of all laws!

Cultivators in this world can only cast Spirit Arts when at a low level.

But upon reaching a profound realm, they must integrate their own Dao, transforming them into Dao Arts.

Therefore, battles between the strong are also known as "clashing of Daos."

However, above the Dao Techniques, there exists a Supreme Dao Technique that reigns over all!

The Supreme Dao Heart is the foundation for unleashing the Supreme Dao Technique.

Even with the same move, when driven by the Supreme Dao Heart, a Dao Technique can be transformed into a Supreme Dao Technique, creating a chasm of difference in power between the two.

What is even more terrifying is this: the spiritual energy stored within the Supreme Dao Heart exceeds that of an ordinary person by ten, even a hundred times—it is virtually inexhaustible!

That is something no amount of acquired cultivation can ever achieve.

It is a gift bestowed only upon those favored by the Great Dao!

"Ah--!" Qin Wangchuan suddenly let out a heart-wrenching scream.

Beneath the delicate skin of the five-year-old child, countless golden Dao patterns slithered like living creatures.

With every inch those patterns spread, large chunks of flesh and blood shattered into a glass-like state, only to be reconstructed within the Chaos Immortal Light.

As the reconstruction progressed, his aura climbed steadily. Faint golden Dao patterns began to emerge around his body, winding like dragons and snakes, profound and unfathomable.

"Boom--!"

The moment the Supreme Dao Heart completed its fusion and awakened, the winds and clouds changed color, and the heavens and earth resonated in unison!

A massive pillar of Chaos Immortal Light erupted from the crown of Qin Wangchuan's head, illuminating the sky above the Qin Clan Ancestral Grounds as if nine great suns were shining in unison.

Within that pillar of light, one could vaguely see thousands of Dao patterns swirling, each strand containing an aura that made one tremble.

"Young Master?"

In the courtyard of Wangchuan Pavilion, the string of the paulownia zither in Ye Jianwei's hands snapped with a sharp twang.

She did not know that Qin Wangchuan was currently clutching his heart, kneeling in the center of the pillar of light.

His flesh and blood were constantly disintegrating and regenerating, and a phantom wearing an imperial crown vaguely manifested behind him.

This phenomenon naturally alarmed others as well.

Throughout the Qin Clan, whether it was the Old Ancestor, the elders, or the young disciples in the midst of cultivation, everyone looked toward the sky, stunned by this world-shaking spectacle!

"This... is this the aura of the Supreme Dao Heart?!" Qin Taiyi suddenly opened his eyes, a look of shock and brilliance exploding within them.

"Who is it? Someone in my Qin Clan has actually awakened the Supreme Dao Heart?!"

His gaze pierced through layers of obstacles, following the aura.

The next moment, his confusion turned into joy.

"Chuan'er has awakened the Supreme Dao Heart??"

Never mind the others, even Qin Fuhai, as his grandfather, had his eyes widened to the size of saucers.

His face was etched with disbelief.

Even he had not expected his own grandson to be this heaven-defying.

An Immortal Body, an Immortal Bone, and now, a Supreme Dao Heart.

Wouldn't he be trampling those so-called prodigies into the dirt in the future?

"If this happened to anyone else, it would be unthinkable, but for the Ninth Young Master... it actually seems normal."

Qin Wenhe stroked his beard as he watched the scene. As Qin Wangchuan's teacher, he wasn't all that surprised.

After all, he had truly seen too much already.

He had long since become Qin Wangchuan's number one fan!

Qin Wudao and Qin Xuanji had sensed the shift in aura early on and had already taken their positions on high ground in the distance to watch.

"See? I told you, it was a sign of great fortune."

"A Supreme Dao Heart... hmm... truly extraordinary."

Those who were knowledgeable naturally recognized this as the phenomenon accompanying the awakening of a Supreme Dao Heart, but the ordinary disciples were left in the dark.

"That direction... is that the Ninth Young Master's residence?!"

"Heavens! Has the Ninth Young Master broken through?!"

"To cause such a commotion just from a breakthrough—he truly is the pride and joy of our Qin Clan! This is truly heaven-defying!"

The members of the Qin Clan felt no jealousy; instead, they were beaming with joy, as if they were the ones who had received the stroke of fortune.

But they did not know.

What was happening to Qin Wangchuan at this moment was far more heaven-defying than a mere breakthrough.

Over the next few days, guests flocked to Qin Wangchuan's pavilion like clouds, nearly trampling the threshold to pieces!

And every one of them was a heavyweight.

It was simple.

Although the Supreme Dao Heart didn't quite compare to the Longevity Immortal Body, it was still considered a heaven-defying physique in its own right.

It could even rank within the top twenty of the Three Thousand Physiques!

As an aside, the Longevity Immortal Body ranked in the top ten.

It could be said that even without the Longevity Immortal Body or the system, this heart alone would be enough for Qin Wangchuan to reign supreme over the Three Thousand Dao Provinces!

And that is the kind of reign that is supreme above Heaven and Earth!

It is truly rare for two heaven-defying physiques to appear simultaneously, which is why it attracted so many people to pay a visit.

Naturally, there was no shortage of explanations along the way.

Fortunately, he was still young; even if an explanation didn't quite make sense, acting cute was enough to let it slide.

No one would probe too deeply.

The Old Ancestor and his grandfather were naturally overjoyed, taking turns bestowing upon him a mountain of rewards.

His little treasury grew even more substantial.

As for the current Qin Wangchuan, if one were to single out this little treasury, I fear even those Holy Lands in the Upper Thousand Provinces that have been passed down for ten thousand years would turn green with envy!

As the matter finally came to an end.

Qin Wangchuan sat alone in the quiet room, slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air.

"I can begin the second simulation."

He whispered, his gaze fixed on the simulation button of the system panel: "Ye Jianwei... I wonder what kind of variables bringing her back to the Qin Clan will bring to the future."

Having said that, he decisively tapped the simulation button.

It suddenly lit up, light flowing between the flickers.

A hint of anticipation appeared in Qin Wangchuan's eyes.

[Second simulation, Life Span consumed: 50 years.]

[Simulation begins.]

[Year 0]

You are born into a humble cultivation family in the Xuanming Realm of the Upper Thousand Provinces—the Han Clan.

Although the Han Clan is poor, the clansmen are united, and life is quite carefree. When you were born, a light snow fell from the sky, and your father named you: Han Han.

[Simulation paused.]

Qin Wangchuan stared at the light screen before him, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

"..."

He took a deep breath, suppressing his speechlessness, and raised his hand to open the system instruction interface.

"System, come here, read this part to me clearly." Qin Wangchuan pointed at the text on the light screen, reading it word by word: "Once per day, consume a simulation count and a certain amount of lifespan to perform a simulation deduction of the host's future."

After finishing, he paused deliberately, his tone carrying a clear sense of interrogation: "'Perform a simulation deduction of the host's future'—does this sentence mean that the host is Ye Jianwei one moment, and then turns into Han Han the next?"

He thought back to the previous simulations.

Although this system had bound itself to the wrong person and was incredibly stubborn to boot.

It couldn't be said to be completely useless, either.

Bringing Ye Jianwei along and relying on simulating her future to deduce his own.

But what about now?

Simulating this one moment, and that one the next.

Tell me, how am I supposed to use this?

Qin Wangchuan felt his temples throbbing.

[Ding! System self-check in progress... No errors found.]

[The host has already been warned previously that the probability of this system making an error is infinitely close to zero.]

"You'd better hope you didn't bind to the wrong person, and then, because the original host died, you just grabbed some random person to play dumb."

Qin Wangchuan rubbed his brow, his tone laced with helplessness: "Otherwise, not only are you stupid as a plague, but you're also stubborn as hell!"

"If you can be cured, do it early, or you'll be drooling everywhere later."

Having said that, he let out a heavy sigh and cast his gaze back onto the light screen.

What else could he do? The count had already been used.

Might as well continue.
