Douluo Continent. Holy Soul Village.

A bone-piercing chill, mixed with the smell of dry grass, dirt, and a faint trace of mildew, rudely invaded his nostrils and yanked Ling Han awake from the chaos.

He snapped his eyes open.

There was no familiar soft mattress, no glaring ceiling light overhead.

What met his eyes was a low, dilapidated thatched roof that looked ready to collapse at any moment, along with rough mud-brick walls webbed with cracks.

The cold morning light squeezed through the gap of a crooked opening that barely qualified as a window, stingily casting several pale patches of light directly onto his face.

A suffocating sense of unfamiliarity swallowed him like an icy tide.

He instinctively tried to push himself up, but his arm felt weak and limp. He looked down—

His pupils suddenly contracted to pinpoints!

What entered his sight was a child's hand!

It was small and filthy, its knuckles so slender they looked ready to snap at the slightest bend. Its rough skin bore faint scratches, and it was wrapped in a faded, heavily patched coarse-cloth sleeve.

It was as if an invisible hand had seized his heart and squeezed hard, making it pound wildly!

He abruptly sat up, ignoring his dizziness as he examined himself—a pair of legs far too short, a thin and frail chest, a body that clearly belonged to an undernourished child!

"Gasp..." He sucked in a breath, his voice dry and hoarse, carrying a panic that did not belong to this body. "What... what is going on?!"

This was not a dream!

His gaze swept around in alarm: a creaking broken wooden table, a chipped rough pottery bowl, and beneath him, a hard earthen kang bed covered with only a thin layer of dry grass.

The air was thick with the lingering scent of plant ash and damp soil.

Everything from his previous life—the jungle, the torrent of information, the bustling city—seemed to have been wiped away in an instant by a giant hand, leaving behind only this silent, primitive, cold, dilapidated thatched hut.

"Could I... have transmigrated?" The six words forced their way through his teeth, filled with absurd disbelief.

The tropes from countless novels had actually become his harsh, bone-chilling reality.

A violent headache exploded without warning! A vast flood of memory fragments, carrying another Ling Han's loneliness, hunger, and despair, surged into him brutally, tearing and merging.

An orphan of Holy Soul Village... mother died in childbirth... father died of illness... impoverished... starving and freezing...

The agony receded, leaving behind clear understanding and a chill that sank into his bones.

He had replaced this pitiful person who was also named Ling Han, a speck of dust who did not even qualify as background scenery in the story of Douluo Continent.

After a brief dead silence, an almost savage ruthlessness suddenly surged from the depths of his heart!

In his previous life, he had already been a man with nothing, drifting and struggling to survive. No matter how terrible this sudden "rebirth" was, how much worse could it get?

"Heh..." A short, cold laugh escaped his childish yet tightly drawn lips, carrying an almost mad resolve. "Good! Very good! Heaven, I'll take your script!"

Just as that thought rose like wildfire—

Ding!

A cold, emotionless electronic voice, clear as though it had rung directly within the depths of his soul, suddenly descended!

Ling Han's entire body stiffened, and a terrifying gleam burst from the depths of his eyes!

Host consciousness anchor detected. Soul compatibility: extremely high. Ultimate protocol requirements met...

Myriad Realms Supreme Summoning System activating... Binding process loading...

10% 35% 67% 99%

Ding! Core binding successful! The Myriad Realms Supreme Summoning System is at your service. Objective: ascend to the pinnacle of this world!

That cold voice carried an unquestionable authority, as though it could freeze time and space!

"It's here!" Ling Han's heart hammered so hard it nearly burst out of his chest! Immense joy instantly drowned all negative emotions! A cheat! Standard equipment for a transmigrator!

But he forcibly suppressed the cheer that nearly escaped his lips. The corners of his mouth instead curved into an expression utterly unsuited to a child's face, three parts madness and seven parts calculation.

"System? Heh, quite the airs you've got! You finally decided to show yourself? If you'd come any later, your host might've starved to death at the starting line of this 'road to the pinnacle'!"

The electronic voice in his mind seemed to pause for an imperceptible fraction of a second: ...

"Alright, alright, I know you're cool and aloof." Ling Han rubbed his icy little hands together, his gaze blazing.

"Cut the nonsense, mighty System! Where's the beginner's gift pack? Hurry up! And what year is it now? Has that brat Tang San awakened his martial soul yet?"

Retrieving information...

Current spacetime coordinates: Douluo Continent, Holy Soul Village.

Important plot point: Target individual Tang San has 7 days remaining until his martial soul awakening ceremony.

"Seven days?!" The smile on Ling Han's face instantly froze, then turned into deeper amusement and a faint urgency that was hard to detect.

"Tsk, I came too early... System, your timing really is... 'precise.'" He deliberately drew out the word. "You dumped me in this godforsaken backwater where I can't even find a single soul master. Are you expecting me to start with a handful of grass, with all my gear relying on... 'summoning'?"

...The core functions of this system have been activated.

The cold electronic voice seemed to carry an almost imperceptible fluctuation, as though its authority had been questioned. The host may explore them independently.

"Oh? Core functions?" Ling Han raised a brow, suppressing his urge to complain as he focused completely. "Summoning? Sounds interesting. How exactly does it work? What can I summon? Soul beasts? Soul masters? Or... some other kind of 'surprise'?"

The Myriad Realms Supreme Summoning System grants the host the power to break through the barriers of time and space.

By consuming Summoning Points, the host may activate Summoning Cards to summon powerful beings from different eras and regions of this world.

Summoning targets include: soul masters (humans/special races), soul beasts (including ancient variant species), special artifacts, and even... dead or future soul beasts and soul masters.

All beings summoned by the system arrive with an initial Absolute Loyalty of 100%. Their lives and deaths... are entirely under the host's control.

The cold electronic voice spoke each word distinctly, yet every sentence exploded in Ling Han's mind like thunder!

Absolute Loyalty! Complete control!

What did that mean? It meant he would possess a terrifying force that belonged only to him and would never betray him! In this world where martial souls and strength reigned supreme, this was simply an authority that defied the heavens!

"Absolute... Loyalty?" Ling Han repeated softly. Though his face was childish, his eyes shone brilliantly, as if flames of ambition burned within them. "Good! Very good! Now this looks more like a path to the pinnacle!"

He leaped down from the cold earthen kang bed, his bare feet landing on the rough, freezing ground, yet his small body stood perfectly straight.

"System!" His voice was firm and decisive. "Tell me how to obtain the points for my first summon! I'm definitely digging up the first pot of 'gold' in Holy Soul Village!"

The cold electronic voice rang out amid Ling Han's burning anticipation:

Methods of obtaining Summoning Points are as follows:

1. Complete tasks issued by the system.

2. Absorb energy-containing materials, such as rare metals and heavenly treasures.

3. Kill or subdue powerful targets.
