System's Nascent Form, Heavenly Pride Grand Assembly

"Beep... drip... loading... fa... failed..."

The cold electronic voice stuttered, and after a brief glitch, the faint sound vanished into thin air. Even the light blue panel floating before Su Li flickered a few times before dissipating into nothingness.

Watching this, Su Li felt no irritation. He raised an eyebrow and gave a self-deprecating smile: "Trying to create a system-type information panel based solely on the fragmented memories of my past life—the difficulty is obvious. The road to creating a system is long and arduous; I suppose I must take it slow."

For the past few years, Su Li had been instinctively attempting to simulate a system.

He had experienced failure after failure, yet he never gave up. After each setback, he would carefully analyze the cause and attempt to find a solution.

He knew that only through constant experimentation and revision could he eventually succeed in simulating a perfect system.

Although Su Li had tried countless times, every attempt had ended in failure.

Sometimes it was due to technical issues, sometimes logical errors, and other times, a lack of thorough consideration.

However, regardless of the reason for failure, Su Li would not easily give up. He firmly believed that as long as he continued to strive, he would surely succeed.

In the process of simulating the system, Su Li encountered several difficulties and challenges. For instance, his cultivation at the Extreme Dao Supreme realm was a major handicap; he lacked the ability to imbue the system with vibrant vitality and vast energy, which was the primary reason he had been unable to make progress.

Over these past few years, Su Li had also been constantly growing and improving.

Through continuous study and practice, he had enhanced his technical skills and logical reasoning. He also realized that to simulate a perfect system, he needed not only technical support but also a deep reflection and understanding of the essence of the problem.

Therefore, he constantly worked to broaden his knowledge and perspective to better cope with various challenges and issues.

Although Su Li had yet to successfully simulate a system, he never stopped moving forward. He knew that only by constantly trying and working hard could he possibly achieve his goal.

He also believed that as long as he did not give up, he would eventually succeed in simulating a perfect system.

"The road is long and arduous, ha ha."

With those words, Su Li walked toward a wooden table carved from a remnant branch of the World Tree. On the table sat a plate of rare immortal fruits and a pot of immortal nectar.

Su Li casually picked up a Flat Peach from the plate and ate it, then lifted the translucent, jade-like pot and, ignoring his image, poured the liquid directly into his mouth with a gurgling sound. The pale silver liquid inside, crystalline and clear, radiating a faint aura of immortal Dao, was swallowed down by Su Li.

After Su Li finished the nectar—a drink that would make even True Immortals burn with desire—the voice of his father, Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation, echoed in his ears, summoning him to the main hall to discuss something.

Su Li left the courtyard and followed a winding, narrow path toward the palace of Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation.

The path seemed to form a small world of its own—twisting, dark, and desolate. From time to time, bone-chilling cold winds whistled past, causing Su Li to shiver, for the cold was intense.

Even as an Extreme Dao Supreme, Su Li could not fully resist this biting chill, but under this cold, his will became increasingly firm and strong, his temperament grew more serene, and his physique became more robust than others at the same level.

This path had been specially built by his father for him, said to temper one's temperament and improve one's cultivation.

Su Li had been traversing this path daily since he was ten years old. Having walked it countless times, he soon reached the end.

Just as he was pondering why his father had summoned him, a gentle voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Li'er, where are you going?"

Su Li looked up and saw a woman in a moon-white dress, possessing a stunning appearance, standing not far away with a soft smile on her face.

This woman was his mother, True Immortal Moon Radiance.

"Mother," Su Li said with a smile, "I am going to the main hall to see Father."

"Let Mother accompany you," True Immortal Moon Radiance said with a smile, reaching out to gently stroke Su Li's head with a look of doting affection.

"Mm."

Feeling his mother's love, Su Li nodded. He knew that the bond between his mother and father was profound; they were not only Dao companions but soulmates.

True Immortal Moon Radiance had accompanied Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation since his humble beginnings, staying by his side since the distant past, following him into battle and walking the path together.

The mother and son walked together and soon arrived at the palace of Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation.

It was a towering, majestic palace. Viewed from afar, the aura of an Immortal King surged into the sky, radiating a powerful presence that made one feel an involuntary sense of awe.

Up close, ripples of the Great Dao shimmered, and golden immortal mist swirled around the area. Furthermore, soul-stirring celestial music played incessantly, cleansing the mind and making one feel as if they had arrived in a fairyland—beautiful and blissful.

Entering the palace, Su Li saw a middle-aged man in a black robe. His face was resolute and his eyes were deep; it was his father, Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation.

"Father."

Su Li bowed respectfully to greet him.

"Chen."

True Immortal Moon Radiance smiled sweetly and walked to the side of Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation, sitting with him in the high hall like a pair of divine lovers, perfectly carefree.

"How has your cultivation been lately?" Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation asked gently, his gaze filled with concern and expectation for his son.

Su Li replied respectfully, "Everything is as usual, Father."

Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation nodded with satisfaction. He knew his son's talent and diligence well and believed that he would surely go further on the path ahead, perhaps even breaking the ancient curse that the children of Immortal Kings could not become Kings themselves.

"I called you here because there is something I wish to discuss with you," Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation said steadily, turning the conversation to the matter at hand.

Su Li listened quietly, knowing that his father must have something important to discuss.

"Next month is the Heavenly Pride Grand Assembly of the Primal Ancient Realm, which will be held in the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest. At that time, countless famous young geniuses and descendants of Immortal Kings from the ancient realm will gather to exchange ideas and discuss the Dao. Immortal Kings will also grace the bamboo forest to impart teachings and techniques," Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation said slowly, explaining the reason for the summons.

A flash of pleasant surprise crossed Su Li's eyes. He knew the importance of this grand assembly; it was an opportunity he had been looking forward to.

"As my own child, you must attend," Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation continued, his tone carrying an unquestionable firmness.

Su Li understood in his heart that this was his father's expectation and trust; he could not let his father down.

"Yes, Father," Su Li replied firmly, knowing this would be a turning point for him to reach even greater heights.

Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation nodded with satisfaction, knowing his son understood his intentions and expectations.

He believed that at next month's Heavenly Pride Grand Assembly, Su Li would surely shine and demonstrate his talent and strength.
