Only those with absolutely no cultivation talent would have no reaction in their bodies after completing a full grand circulation...

Jun Wangyou panicked, his thoughts in complete turmoil.

After a long while, Jun Wangyou gradually accepted reality.

He had never expected his dream of cultivation to be shattered after only half a day.

Jun Wangyou walked out with a sorrowful expression.

Halfway there, he suddenly remembered that he had yet to collect the token and clothes True Man Qingwei had sent someone to deliver.

While cultivating, he vaguely recalled someone calling for him.

Arriving at the entrance of the small courtyard, Jun Wangyou opened the door.

As expected, the True Disciple robes and True Disciple token had already been neatly placed on the ground.

Besides those, there was also a book and a storage ring.

Expressionlessly, he gathered everything up and returned to his room.

Jun Wangyou sat quietly on the bed. He wanted some peace and quiet.

Who knew how much time passed before Jun Wangyou opened his eyes, a trace of determination appearing in them.

"I refuse to believe that someone like Master would misjudge me."

Jun Wangyou refused to accept it. He did not believe he was truly trash.

Of course, he believed even less that True Man Qingwei's judgment could be wrong.

And so, Jun Wangyou once again began cultivating day and night.

Such days continued for an entire month.

During that time, news of True Man Qingwei taking on a disciple swiftly sparked heated discussion throughout the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land.

Everyone was guessing what kind of monstrous genius True Man Qingwei's disciple was.

After all, True Man Qingwei's discerning eye was famous throughout the cultivation world.

Once, an unrivaled genius had wanted to become True Man Qingwei's disciple, only to be rejected by him.

That genius later joined the Yin Yang Sacred Land, and within only a few years, became the foremost of its True Disciples.

Later, someone revealed that this genius possessed an Immortal Spiritual Root.

Yet even such a genius had been ruthlessly rejected by True Man Qingwei.

When someone later brought it up before him, True Man Qingwei still said he had no regrets.

He even bluntly stated that the disciple he accepted had to be a peerless genius unlike any seen in the cultivation world for eternity.

Otherwise, he would not accept an ordinary genius, even one with an Immortal Spiritual Root.

Of course.

Whether True Man Qingwei was merely talking tough was another matter.

For a time, this incident became one of the cultivation world's greatest jokes.

Everyone mocked True Man Qingwei for his wishful thinking.

But now, True Man Qingwei had accepted a disciple.

Moreover, the disciple True Man Qingwei had accepted had not appeared even once in an entire month.

This made countless people in the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land speculate about what realm True Man Qingwei's disciple had cultivated to.

And how he compared to that great genius True Man Qingwei had once rejected.

After all, after that great genius joined the Yin Yang Sacred Land—

He successfully drew qi into his body in a single day.

He succeeded in Qi Refining in ten days.

In half a year, he reached Qi Refining Great Perfection, breaking countless records.

If Jun Wangyou, as True Man Qingwei's disciple, failed to reach such heights—

Then True Man Qingwei would surely become the laughingstock of the cultivation world once more.

Thus, the entire Heavenly Dao Sacred Land was extremely concerned about this matter.

Lingtian Peak.

Inside the cultivation chamber.

Jun Wangyou was still cultivating with his eyes closed.

Over the course of a month, he had completed three thousand six hundred grand circulations.

The faint stream of air in his body at the beginning had now become a savage current like a prehistoric beast.

It rampaged through Jun Wangyou's meridians.

Yet even so, Jun Wangyou still had not broken through.

Jun Wangyou was nearly despairing.

He was thinking.

Should he pack up and quietly run away now?

If True Man Qingwei discovered he was trash—

Jun Wangyou even suspected that True Man Qingwei might chop him into eight pieces.

Just as Jun Wangyou completed another grand circulation and still gained nothing—

A mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

Ding~ Detected that the host is ten Qi Refining Pills short of a breakthrough. They have been automatically acquired for the host.

This system is called the Auxiliary Cultivation Ascension System. It can automatically manage cultivation and acquire the resources the host requires, helping the host ascend as soon as possible.

This is the system's first service. If you are satisfied with the service, please give the system a five-star review.

Love you, mwah mwah??.

The air suddenly fell silent.

Jun Wangyou froze, his face blank.

He stared at the ten Qi Refining Pills that had suddenly appeared in his hand.

Jun Wangyou's mind was a complete mess.

"This is... a system?!!"

After standing there dumbfounded for quite some time, Jun Wangyou suddenly burst into tears.

"Wuwuwu, System, I knew you wouldn't abandon me!"

"I knew it. As a member of the transmigrator army, how could I possibly not have a standard-issue Golden Finger?"

"But... didn't you come a little too late?"

Jun Wangyou was extremely excited, but that did not stop him from complaining about the system.

From the moment he was reborn, he had been waiting for his Golden Finger.

But it had never come. He had even thought that the old grandpa in charge of systems had forgotten about him.

He had never expected the system to appear now.

It was a full eighteen years late.

This delivery speed was slower than a turtle's!

He wondered where he could file a complaint.

However, just as Jun Wangyou finished complaining—

The system's urgent voice sounded again.

[Ding ding ding~ System error. Detected that the host possesses heavenly talent and requires no system assistance. System self-destruction in progress...]

"What?"

Jun Wangyou froze, then completely lost his mind.

"Self-destruction?!!"

"Don't do this, big bro! I was wrong, okay?"

"Wuwu, System Daddy, don't run away! I need you!"

Jun Wangyou was completely dumbstruck.

"Because it detected that I have heavenly talent, the system is automatically self-destructing?"

"What kind of ridiculous reason is that!"

"Could it be that it detected my talent was too terrible, and even the system couldn't bear to look at it, so it ran away?"

"I don't care. I want to file a complaint!"

"A complaint!!!"

However, the system ignored Jun Wangyou entirely.

It continued self-destructing.

After begging for a long time and realizing it was useless, Jun Wangyou collapsed onto the bed.

Let it all be destroyed. I'm tired.

Jun Wangyou stared blankly with lifeless eyes, but inwardly he thought, Damn it, maybe I should just start over.

This was way too tragic!

He thought he was a genius, only to discover he was useless.

He thought he had finally gotten a Golden Finger, only for it to run away!

Jun Wangyou seriously doubted whether there was any transmigrator in the world more miserable than him.

After a long while, the sound of the system completing its self-destruction came from his mind.

[Ding~ Auxiliary Cultivation System self-destruction complete] [Ding~ The All-Heavens Transmigration Department is reshipping~]

"Hm?"

Jun Wangyou sprang up from the bed, his eyes widening as excitement slowly rose within him.

Could it be...

[Ding~ Reshipment complete] [God-tier Choice System binding] [Binding complete] [Host: Jun Wangyou] [Cultivation: None] [Cultivation Method: Heavenly Dao Divine Codex, Level 1] [Dao Arts: None] [Divine Abilities: None] [Innate Divine Abilities: Time Stop, Chaos Power (born with them, thus innate divine abilities)] [Storage: None] [View Relationships (Function description: Can view others' favorability and impressions of you, helping the host distinguish good people from bad people)] [System Description: In a cultivation world filled with deception, opportunities everywhere, and strength above all else, there are always all kinds of choices. Every choice brings you a different outcome, whether good or bad. Any choice can alter the trajectory of your future fate. The God-tier Choice System is your good companion on the path of cultivation, helping you make every choice well, while also providing unexpected rewards.]

"Gulp!"

The sound of Jun Wangyou swallowing echoed through the room.

It had arrived, it had arrived—the God-tier Choice System, swaggering toward him with its arrogant sales pitch!

At that moment, Jun Wangyou was moved to tears. He truly wanted to cry.

In just this short hour, he had experienced two enormous ups and downs in his life.

It was too damn thrilling!

"So this is the God-tier Choice System?"

Jun Wangyou carefully examined the panel before him.

"The God-tier Choice System, your good companion on the path of cultivation..."

Jun Wangyou read it aloud word by word, unable to stop the corner of his mouth from twitching.

What an embarrassingly cringe slogan.

Still, cringe as it was, Jun Wangyou understood what the system did.

It would help Jun Wangyou make every choice properly, ensuring that every choice benefited him.

After understanding it, Jun Wangyou began examining the panel again.

The first few entries were nothing remarkable, but when he reached the innate divine abilities section, Jun Wangyou froze.

"Time Prohibition, Chaos Power..."

"What are these?"

Jun Wangyou scratched his head, utterly confused and having no idea what they meant.

He soon stopped thinking about it. Whatever they were, they belonged to him anyway.

Then, Jun Wangyou opened the final option: relationships.

The moment he opened it, a secondary panel appeared and covered the main panel.

The secondary panel displayed many portraits, with descriptions beside them.

[Jun Wudi: Cultivation ??? Identity ? Favorability toward you: 10 stars (minimum -10 stars, maximum +10 stars). Your father] [Bing Wanrou: Cultivation ??? Identity ? Favorability toward you: 10 stars. Your mother] [True Man Qingwei: Ascension Realm Great Perfection. Identity: Holy Lord of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land. Favorability toward you: 6 stars. Your master. He hopes you grow up soon so he can go show off, while also leading the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land to its peak. My disciple is unmatched beneath heaven, hahaha.] [Ye Xiaoxiao: Foundation Establishment Great Perfection. Identity: Myriad Transformations Demonic Sect Saintess. Favorability toward you: 5 stars. Little brother, sooner or later, you'll be mine.] [Passerby A:...] [Passerby B:...]

"Dad and Mom have ten-star favorability toward me? Isn't that obvious? I'm their biological son."

"Master only gave me 6 stars. Well... we haven't known each other for long. That's normal."

"Who is this Ye Xiaoxiao?"

Jun Wangyou thought for a moment. Then his eyes widened.

He remembered. Wasn't this Ruhua?

But...

Jun Wangyou looked at Ye Xiaoxiao's avatar. She was clearly a loli.

And a gothic loli at that.

Myriad Transformations Demonic Sect Saintess...

"So Ruhua was a transformation."

Jun Wangyou's eyes flickered, and he felt relieved.

"I knew it. How could anyone in the cultivation world possibly look like that?"

As for Passerby A and Passerby B...

"Alas, this damn face of mine."
