God-Level Choice System Releases Newbie Gift Pack

"Ding. Detection complete: Host has successfully become the disciple of Pope Bibi Dong and rejected the recruitment of the Worship Hall. Allegiance to the Pope Palace faction is now officially confirmed."

"The trajectory of fate has undergone a major deviation. The God-Level Choice System's exclusive novice gift pack has been issued."

"Do you wish to open the novice gift pack immediately?"

Su Chen opened his eyes.

He took a deep breath.

"Open."

Su Chen recited the command in his heart.

A pale blue, translucent light screen, visible only to him, slowly unfolded before his eyes.

In the center of the screen appeared a blind box radiating a dazzling golden light.

The blind box vibrated violently in mid-air.

Then, it shattered with a boom.

Three streaks of light flew out from the box.

The streaks transformed into three golden cards on the screen, face down.

The cards flipped over one by one.

The glowing text on their faces was revealed.

"Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the god-level cultivation technique: Chaos God-Demon Art."

"Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the growth-type spatial Soul Tool: Void Ring."

"Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the top-tier physical transformation pill: Marrow Cleansing Pill."

Su Chen looked at the three rewards on the light screen.

A flash of brilliance crossed his eyes.

The novice gift pack provided by the system contained nothing flashy or useless.

Everything was core resources he urgently needed at this moment.

It perfectly compensated for all his current shortcomings.

The current soul master cultivation system on the Douluo Continent was extremely crude.

The vast majority of soul masters could only rely on basic meditation to accumulate the free-floating soul power from the outside world.

This method of cultivation was incredibly inefficient.

Even for the Martial Soul Hall and the Upper Three Sects.

The high-level meditation techniques they possessed internally.

Were essentially just ways to accelerate the speed of absorbing external energy.

They had no understanding of how to compress the soul power within their bodies.

Nor did they know how to utilize techniques to widen their meridians.

Su Chen possessed innate full soul power at level twenty.

The total amount of soul power within his body was countless times that of his peers.

If he were to use the ordinary meditation techniques of the Martial Soul Hall.

He would be completely unable to effectively control the violent energy within him.

Not to mention that he possessed two diametrically opposed attributes: Ultimate Light and Ultimate Darkness.

If left unchecked.

These two forces would sooner or later clash violently within his body.

Dying from an exploding body was not just Qian Daoliu fear-mongering.

Bibi Dong herself had only managed to suppress the backlash of her Twin Martial Souls through painful means back then.

This Chaos God-Demon Art solved this problem perfectly.

Su Chen issued the extraction command in his heart.

The first golden card transformed into countless ancient golden characters.

These characters turned into a stream of light that surged directly into Su Chen's sea of consciousness.

The Million-Year Head Soul Bone immediately emitted a gentle ripple.

The massive amount of information was instantly parsed and absorbed by this powerful mental energy.

The execution path and the mental mantras of the technique were deeply engraved into Su Chen's memory.

Su Chen closed his eyes.

He began to attempt to mobilize the dormant soul power within his body, following the circulation path of the Chaos God-Demon Art.

The Innate Full Soul Power that had been scattered throughout his limbs and bones began to flow in an orderly fashion.

It was forcibly split into two by the cultivation technique.

One part transformed into pure light energy.

It traveled along the meridians on the left side.

The other part transformed into profound dark energy.

It wandered along the meridians on the right side.

Both forces eventually converged at Su Chen's dantian.

They did not collide.

Instead, under the guidance of the technique, they formed a slowly rotating black and white taiji vortex.

With every rotation of the vortex.

The soul power within Su Chen's body was purified by a fraction.

The originally colorless soul power gradually took on a hue of interwoven gold and black.

The density of his soul power increased significantly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Half an hour later.

Su Chen exhaled a breath of stale air.

He could feel that his control over his Twin Martial Souls had reached an entirely new level.

His meridians had also become tougher under the nourishment of the technique.

Su Chen opened his eyes.

He cast his gaze toward the second reward on the light screen.

With a thought.

The second card vanished.

A simple, dark silver ring with no superfluous patterns on its surface landed in his palm.

This was the Void Ring.

Su Chen placed the ring on the index finger of his left hand.

The ring automatically contracted.

It fit the contours of his finger perfectly.

Immediately after.

A faint shimmer flashed across the surface of the ring.

It sank directly beneath his skin.

It was completely undetectable to the naked eye.

Su Chen mobilized a wisp of materialized spiritual power to probe inside the ring.

It was a massive cubic space, one hundred meters in length, width, and height.

The laws within the space were extremely stable.

It could store any inanimate object.

A storage Soul Tool of this caliber.

Could absolutely not be found a second time in the entire Douluo Continent.

Most of the storage Soul Tools currently existing on the continent were severely damaged.

Their spaces were cramped.

A space of twenty cubic meters was already considered a priceless treasure.

The concealment of the Void Ring was extremely high.

It would prevent Su Chen from inviting fatal disaster due to exposed wealth while out training.

Su Chen was very satisfied.

He looked at the final card.

This was also the most core and crucial reward in the novice gift pack.

The Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Su Chen extracted the medicinal pill.

A pure white pill the size of a dragon's eye appeared in his hand.

A faint halo circulated on the surface of the pill.

A fresh medicinal fragrance instantly permeated the entire room.

Just by smelling this aroma.

Su Chen felt the circulation of his internal blood and qi accelerate several times over.

The system's text description appeared clearly on the light screen.

"Marrow Cleansing Pill: Removes impurities from the mortal body. Reshapes bones and meridians. Significantly enhances physical strength and resilience. Breaks the limits of the human body at the root. Lays an absolutely perfect physical foundation for the host to absorb high-age spirit rings beyond their rank."

Su Chen looked at the white pill in his hand.

His gaze became incredibly sharp.

According to the records of Martial Soul Hall.

The spirit master world of Douluo Continent had long been dominated by a set of so-called Ten Core Competitiveness Theories.

That trash Yu Xiaogang, who was engaged and then kicked out of his clan.

Relying on top-secret materials he plagiarized from Martial Soul Hall.

He cobbled together a set of rigid theories that only applied to low-level spirit masters.

Yu Xiaogang asserted.

The limit for the first spirit ring was four hundred and twenty-three years.

This theory made countless geniuses across the continent timid and cautious during their starting phase.

They dared not attempt to break through their own limits.

They treated the data Yu Xiaogang fabricated as absolute truth.

Wasting the innate potential of their martial souls in vain.

As a transmigrator.

Su Chen knew all too well how absurd this theory was.

The essence of absorbing a spirit ring.

Was for the spirit master's body and mental power to bear the violent energy source left behind after a spirit beast died.

As long as the body was strong enough.

And the mental power was resilient enough.

Never mind absorbing a thousand-year spirit ring beyond one's rank.

Even absorbing a ten-thousand-year spirit beast as a first spirit ring.

Was not entirely impossible.

The reason Tang San only absorbed a Datura Snake of nearly four hundred years for his first spirit ring.

Was fundamentally because the foundation of his body was too poor.

Even though he had practiced the Tang Sect's Mysterious Heaven Skill since childhood.

It could not change the fact that he came from a remote village and suffered from long-term malnutrition.

Su Chen would never walk such a mediocre, conventional path.

He possessed a supreme god-level Twin Martial Souls.

If his first spirit ring only absorbed a common hundred-year spirit beast of four hundred years.

That would be a complete insult to this top-tier talent.

And a massive waste of resources.

His goal was very clear.

His first spirit ring must be a thousand-year-level powerful spirit beast absorbed beyond his rank.

He possessed the materialized mental power provided by the Million-Year Head Soul Bone.

The mental shock brought by the remnant soul of a spirit beast posed no threat to him.

The only shortcoming he currently lacked.

Was this fragile six-year-old body.

The Marrow Cleansing Pill was the perfect tool to bridge this gap.

Su Chen did not rush to swallow the pill.

He stood up and walked to the bedside.

He reached out and pulled the brass bell at the head of the bed.

The crisp sound of the bell rang out in the corridor outside.

A few seconds later.

The door was gently knocked upon.

The respectful voice of the high-ranking maid who had brought Su Chen over came from outside the door.

"Young Master Su Chen, do you have any instructions?"

Su Chen walked behind the door.

He issued his instructions through the wooden door.

"I am entering deep seclusion. From this moment on, no one is permitted to enter the Cloud Condensing Pavilion. Even if the Pope sends someone to inquire, make them wait outside. Without my permission, no one is to step even half a pace into this room. Those who disobey will bear the consequences themselves."

Su Chen's tone was icy and brooked no argument.

The maid outside the door was slightly startled.

She immediately lowered her head and replied.

"As you command. This subordinate will immediately instruct the outer Temple Knights to strengthen the perimeter. We will not let even a single fly inside."

Listening to the footsteps fading away outside the door, Su Chen turned and walked back to the bed.

He took off his shoes.

He sat cross-legged on the soft Fire Fox fur cushion.

The room was deathly quiet.

The conditions here were luxurious.

The floor was covered with an entire Fire Fox pelt.

The walls were inlaid with fire-attribute crystals capable of automatically regulating the temperature.

The air was permeated with the faint, serene scent of high-grade calming incense.

Su Chen was not intoxicated by the luxury before him.

He was very clear:

The internal factional struggles within Martial Soul Hall were brutal.

That Bibi Dong was willing to confront Qian Daoliu head-on for his sake today, and even went so far as to appoint him as her direct disciple, granting him immense privileges, was entirely because he had demonstrated unparalleled value.

Once his growth rate failed to meet the expectations of the higher-ups, or if problems arose during the cultivation of his Twin Martial Souls, everything he possessed today would be retracted in an instant.

In this Douluo Continent where the weak are prey to the strong, one's own strength was the foundation of all power.

And the process of marrow cleansing and bone forging could never be easy.

He had to ensure he underwent this transformation in an absolutely safe environment, undisturbed by anyone.

The night-luminescent pearls in the room emitted a soft, cold light.

Su Chen closed his eyes.

He adjusted his breathing rhythm, bringing himself to his peak state.

He raised his right hand, and without hesitation, placed the white Marrow Cleansing Pill into his mouth.

The pill melted the moment it touched his tongue, instantly turning into a sweet, warm current that slid down his throat into his abdomen.

After this warm current entered his stomach, it did not immediately erupt with violent energy.

Instead, it spread slowly like warm water, flowing through his bloodstream to his limbs and bones.

At first, Su Chen only felt a warmth throughout his body, as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring.

But this comfort lasted for only three breaths.

The medicinal effect erupted completely.

That gentle, warm current instantly transformed into scorching magma.

The searing energy rampaged wildly through every blood vessel and meridian in his body.

Su Chen slammed his teeth together.

His hands gripped the fabric of his trousers over his knees with a death grip.

A violent, tearing sensation surged from deep within his muscles and bones across his entire body.

He felt as if every inch of his bones were being ruthlessly shattered by heavy hammers.

Then, they were being remelted and fused back together under intense heat.

This transformation of body and soul was violent.

There were no shortcuts to be taken.

Cold sweat instantly soaked through his thin garments.

It dripped from his forehead, splashing in large droplets onto the leather cushion.

Yet, he did not let out even a single muffled groan.
