Qing Mo: "Oh, come on! System, look on the bright side! Look at me now—isn't this exactly what it looks like when a transmigrated protagonist reaches the pinnacle with the help of a system? You don't even have to worry, and I'm already invincible. Isn't that great?"
System: "This... I feel like the familiar opening for thousands of transmigrators has somehow swapped roles here. You're invincible, so doesn't that make me useless?"
Qing Mo: "It seems, that really is the case!"
System: "..."
"Then what do you plan to do now? You're already invincible; compared to your predecessors, you've got a perfect starting hand!" the system asked.
Qing Mo: "Sigh... invincible is invincible! But there are still experiences to be had, right? Hehe."
System: "What? O_o"
Qing Mo: "¬¬`¬¬` Giving you a look."
Following the guidance of the Jade Pendant, Qing Mo reached out, tore open space, and stepped inside.
"This kid's temperament is still young. But it's a good thing I acted fast, otherwise there would be nothing left for me to do," the Master of Myriad Daos mused quietly in the courtyard.
Haoyun Continent, the bustling Liang City.
In the deep mountains far from Liang City, subtle spatial fluctuations occurred, and Qing Mo stepped out from a spatial rift. The laws and Dao rhymes permeating his body were tearing through this world at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Nearby demonic beasts were scared to death just by witnessing the scene. Qing Mo waved his hand, restoring the world to its original state, then concealed the laws and Dao rhymes around him. The remaining demonic beasts saw the world suddenly return to normal and didn't know what had happened; they hadn't felt anything, yet their bodies couldn't stop trembling, as if some great terror had arrived.
The moment Qing Mo arrived, the Heavenly Dao of this world sensed him instantly. It condensed into a human form to investigate, but upon seeing the man covered in laws and Dao rhymes, it was speechless for a long time.
After everything returned to normal, the system said: "Big shot, are you here to find something or to tear the place down? A moment later and this world would have been destroyed. I was trying to cheer myself up by saying you might need my help in the future, but now it seems it makes no difference whether I'm here or not."
Qing Mo laughed sheepishly: "Sorry about that. Back at the old man's place, nothing happened, and I was just too happy when I first stepped out and forgot."
Just then, Qing Mo saw an old man in the distance and decided to ask him where they were and if there was anything fun or delicious to find. After all, he was still a young man in his early twenties.
The Heavenly Dao of this world saw Qing Mo walking over, and every hair on its body stood on end. It thought, Don't come over here, don't touch me, get away from me!!!
Qing Mo walked up to him and was just about to speak, but before a word could leave his mouth, the man fell straight over. Damn, a scammer, Qing Mo thought. Can't be that unlucky, right? Do bad guys in the cultivation world get old too?
Qing Mo picked up a branch from the ground and poked the old man—the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao—like a dead fish. No way!
System: "..." Did the Heavenly Dao of this world get scared to death by you?
Qing Mo: "That shouldn't be, right? Even if this is just an inconspicuous corner of a minor world, it has gained sentience. It shouldn't be that timid, should it?"
Fortunately, the Heavenly Dao had fainted. If it had heard him say that, it would surely have cursed: "In the age of cold weapons, you suddenly pull out an atomic bomb, and then you tell me not to panic? I'll [expletive] your [expletive]!"
After a while, the Heavenly Dao woke up, saw no one in front of it, and let out a long sigh of relief: "Glad he's gone, glad he's gone. Scaring an old comrade of several hundred thousand years like me. No martial ethics at all!!"
The Heavenly Dao slowly stood up, only to hear from behind: "Yo! Awake? Old comrade?"
The Heavenly Dao instantly straightened its body and slowly turned its head, seeing Qing Mo looking at it with a smile. Just as it wanted to faint again, it heard, "If you dare faint again, I'll make sure you never wake up."
The Heavenly Dao sobered up instantly and immediately knelt before Qing Mo, snot and tears streaming down its face: "Senior, big shot, please don't, don't do this!!"
Qing Mo asked the Heavenly Dao about some things in this world and learned that this was the Southern Border of the Haoyun Continent, and there were also the Eastern Wasteland, Western Sea, Northern Liang, and Central Province. The cultivation realms of this world were: Qi Induction, Body Tempering, Spirit Returning, Purple Origin, Void Reversion, Spirit Refining, Dao Integration... He couldn't be bothered to ask about anything else. Anyway, I'm invincible, you guys do whatever!
Originally, Qing Mo had intended to slowly help his old master find precious materials, but the Heavenly Dao wanted to follow him. Since he needed a guide anyway, he took it along.
He had been nearly stifled in the old master's courtyard for years; what young man could stay cooped up at home for years? So, looking at the scenery along the way wasn't bad, and he even helped the Heavenly Dao perfect some of its laws. The little old man was endlessly grateful along the way!
Halfway there, he remembered to ask the system: "System, what functions do you have? You said before you wanted me to do things for you—what kind of things?"
System: "Don't call me 'System' [Tongzi], you're the Tongzi, your whole family is Tongzi!"
Qing Mo: "Alright, Tongzi ( ̄y▽ ̄)~*"
System: "Don't call me Tongzi ٩(๑`^´๑)۶"
System: "This system—pfft, no, this system has many more functions than others. I can do microtransactions, check-ins, lucky draws, absorb luck, copy the skills and techniques of famous figures from other worlds, and so on... (I can't think of any more for now, so I won't pad the word count) (ー_ー)!!"
Qing Mo: "Doesn't seem very useful to me. I'm already at the pinnacle; would I worry about the things you mentioned? ٩(●´৺`●)૭"
System: "I can also change people's constitutions and alter their talents. That's not bad, right?"
Qing Mo: "Oh, d(ŐдŐ๑), that's actually something!"
System: "You bet ٩(๑^o^๑)۶"
System: "You help me collect origins from other worlds, and I'll give you a discount in the system shop, how about that? You can't possibly do everything yourself, right? You'll need to recruit some lackeys or muscle eventually. Anyway, I know you won't smash a world to pieces with one slap; you've just worked too much overtime, you just want to play!"
Qing Mo: "What's the discount?"
System: "95 percent?"
Qing Mo: "Not going!!!"
System: "88 percent?"
Qing Mo: "Not going!!!"
System: "Just tell me, how much?"
Qing Mo: "1 percent."
System: "I must have had bad luck for generations to have chosen you (๑ १д१)"
Qing Mo: "Take it or leave it. Anyway, I can't do anything to you, and you can't control me."
The system gritted its teeth: "Deal."
Qing Mo nodded in satisfaction. Suddenly, he thought of something. He had seen in Journey to the West that those big shots all had mounts. Should he get one too?
Once this thought emerged, there was no turning back. He said it, so he would do it!
