Southeast of Sea God Island lay a coastal valley that curved inward.

This was one of Sea God Island's wonders: Raging Waves Dead End.

The thunderous crash of waves against the shore was like unending thunder. Under the year-round, day-after-day battering of chaotic currents, this stretch of coastline had actually been carved several hundred meters into the island.

Qian Ni stood atop the cliff, spreading his arms wide as he felt the sea's majesty.

He was in an exceptionally good mood.

"Successfully infiltrated Sea God Island! And figured out another way to obtain Fate Stones! Two happy things overlapping together.

"And these two joys have brought me even more joy.

"Without a doubt! This is a dreamlike time of happiness!"

Ever since his martial soul awakened, he had been searching for and verifying the conditions needed to fulfill Certain Causality.

The twelve Fate Stones from his biological parents went without saying.

He could understand the nine Fate Stones from his adoptive father, Qian Daoliu as well. Six years together, the kindness of raising him, the bond between father and son.

Especially since the man was one of the Six-Winged Angel "Clan of Love."

"Clan of Love" was Qian Ni's nickname for them.

He had always been wondering what kind of causality counted as Certain Causality.

That was why, after accidentally consuming Whale Rubber, Qian Ni had an idea.

He would reveal the uses of Whale Rubber, gradually promote it among all Soul Masters, and raise the average upper limit of Soul Master strength.

That kind of causality should count as Certain Causality, right?

Fate Stones could only be obtained from Soul Masters.

If he succeeded, then the countless Soul Masters across Douluo Continent would all become Qian Ni's ATMs.

He would achieve Fate Stone freedom.

Still, that was a matter for the future.

As for obtaining Fate Stones and fulfilling Certain Causality, Sea Dragon had given Qian Ni another answer.

Sea Dragon had thoroughly humiliated himself in front of all the Sacred Pillar guardians.

Qian Ni's Fate Stones +9.

It showed him another path.

As long as he left a deep enough impression on someone, he could obtain Fate Stones from them.

Persecution!

As long as he persecuted enough people! Fast enough! Deeply enough! He could keep cheating, keep summoning!

Just one Ultimate Power had already made Qian Ni's potential unfathomable.

Qian Ni believed that even more surprises awaited him on the other side of the Summoning System.

I currently have twenty Fate Stones. I can still do two ten-pulls.

I'll keep ten as backup energy for future Soul Skill replacements.

Before today's training begins, I'll pull once.

Maybe I'll get some item that can help with cultivation!

It's time. My turn! Draw!

Within his vision was the summoning interface only Qian Ni could see.

The number of Fate Stones in the upper-right corner instantly changed!

20→10

The void of summoning appeared again, and ten beams of light shot out!

System, don't let me down!

He shouted inwardly.

Swoosh!

[Summoned: Copy Mirror] [Summoned: Mint] [Summoned: Gatling Fireworks] [Summoned: Famous Blade Electroflash] [Summoned: Hypnosis Phone App] [Summoned: Bellerophon] [Summoned: Herring Can] [Summoned: Fatigue-Removing Sticker] [Summoned: Magic Butt] [Summoned: Planet-Destroying Bomb]

The dazzling array of items left Qian Ni seeing stars.

Upon closer inspection, his grin grew increasingly unrestrained.

"Heh-heh... Hahaha... Hahahahaha!"

Not far behind Qian Ni, Bo Saixi and Sea Witch watched his sudden burst of laughter, their faces darkening.

What now? Who made him happy this time?

After Sea Dragon's public humiliation, Bo Saixi had taken over the task of watching Qian Ni.

She followed him during his daily training and daily life, terrified that this crazy child might see or eat something abnormal again and grow up crooked.

Sea Witch had nothing better to do, so she simply followed along too.

Qian Ni had no time to bother with them. He was busy taking stock of his summoning gains.

Copy Mirror? Like the Time Furoshiki, it's another Doraemon item. It can duplicate objects, even humans. But the copied product will be a mirror image. Copied objects can be used normally, while copied living beings will have opposite personalities.

Sure enough, comedy works have the most absurdly overpowered stuff.

Too bad I gave those two Senzu Beans to Grandma Bo Saixi and that old man. Otherwise, making a batch of copies for healing supplies would've been pretty nice.

No matter. I'll draw more later.

The second one is... Mint?

Qian Ni reached out and retrieved the Mint from the system.

Yep, it was just ordinary Mint with no special power. Judging from its appearance, though, it was Mint from some game.

He suddenly thought of a meme and couldn't help laughing.

Pass!

Gatling Fireworks? An interesting toy. It would look great when set off at night.

Famous Blade Electroflash was also from Doraemon. It was a decent little item, powered by electricity and capable of automatically defending against an enemy's attacks.

Qian Ni suddenly imagined a scene.

If he ran into Tang San in the future, Tang San would raise a hand and unleash hidden weapons, while Qian Ni held Famous Blade Electroflash and blocked everything without even opening his eyes.

Tang San's expression would definitely be wonderful.

One Lightning Pellet could block ninety percent of Tang San's hidden weapons. Hilarious.

Famous Blade Electroflash became scrap metal once its electricity ran out.

But the High-Capacity Wuling Battery he had summoned last time could recharge Lightning Pellet perfectly.

As for the next item...

Qian Ni narrowed his eyes.

Hypnosis Phone App?

He stared at the smartphone in his hand, its screen displaying a pink heart, and fell into thought.

This didn't seem like the setting of an adult anime... Was this really legitimate?

Qian Ni couldn't help looking back at Bo Saixi and Sea Witch in the distance before quickly turning around again.

Haha, I'll develop new uses for it.

Wait... Don't I still have a living Alien?

In an instant, Qian Ni thought of a use.

Mm, I'll try it later. It's just an Alien. If I lose it, I lose it.

Rider's Bridle is a great thing! Rider's Noble Phantasm from Fate. It can command certain beasts for high-speed charges, reaching speeds of four hundred to five hundred kilometers per hour.

Too bad I only got the bridle and no Pegasus. I'll have to catch my own mount.

Hey, don't I happen to have an Alien? And Douluo Continent is full of Soul Beasts.

I'll try it on Xiao Bai, the Demon Spirit Great White Shark King, later too.

Qian Ni thought of a new game and nodded in satisfaction.

Herring Can, dark cuisine. Pass!

Fatigue-Removing Sticker is also a good thing. Stick it on the body, and the front absorbs fatigue while the back releases fatigue. It's even a conceptual item. Even a robot cat like Doraemon can use it, and it includes both mental and physical fatigue.

It can assist cultivation. Not bad!

Magic Butt is a little improper. Needs further development. Pass.

Planet-Destroying Bomb, my old friend. Douluo Continent has narrowly avoided destruction once again. You should thank me!

After taking stock of his gains, Qian Ni felt utterly refreshed!

He took a deep breath. Under the strange gazes of Bo Saixi and Sea Witch, he held the Hypnosis Phone App in his left hand and Lightning Pellet in his right, then summoned a monster over three meters tall.

The creature was pitch-black all over, with a long head and a sharp, jointed tail trailing from its back, ending in a spike.

Simply standing there, it radiated an alien aura like a weapon built for slaughter.

An Alien.

Just as Bo Saixi and Sea Witch were wondering where Qian Ni had summoned such a strange Soul Beast from and prepared to step forward to protect him—

Whoosh—

The sound of something tearing through the air rang out as the Alien's sharp tail spike shot at Qian Ni without warning.

Clang!

Lightning Pellet sensed the attack and rose automatically, blocking the Alien's strike.

Seeing its attack fail, the Alien immediately lowered its body and slowly backed away. Its huge, fang-filled mouth gradually opened, its incomparably hard inner jaws extending and retracting.

A clear, transparent liquid flowed from its mouth and dripped onto the black rocks of Raging Waves Dead End.

That was the pure water it used for heat dissipation.

Yes, an Alien's saliva was pure water. If you didn't mind the disgust, you could drink it.

"A-Ni, be careful!"

Bo Saixi and Sea Witch rushed forward, shielding Qian Ni behind them.

Qian Ni raised a hand to signal that they needn't panic. He looked at the Alien and aimed the Hypnosis Phone App in his left hand at its head.

On the phone screen, the pink heart spread outward in expanding rings.

Bo Saixi and Sea Witch had no idea what he was doing, but the Alien before them seemed to change.

The Alien appeared to have no eyes, but it possessed organs capable of sensing its surroundings. Facing the Hypnosis Phone App, it was still affected.

Its raised tail spike slowly lowered and swayed back and forth behind it.

That strange head also bowed toward Qian Ni.

"A-Ni, what's going on? This Soul Beast... has no Soul Power?"

Bo Saixi was filled with confusion.

"Wait a moment, Grandma."

Qian Ni wasn't in a hurry to explain. He was still testing the Hypnosis Phone App's effects.

"Sit...

"Turn in a circle...

"Show me your belly...

"Do a handstand...

"Thomas Flare...

"Do a set of radio calisthenics..."

Watching the Alien obey every command, Qian Ni couldn't help laughing.

"Holy shit, adult anime items really are amazing! Good thing I'm an upright gentleman, or this novel would've been banned!"

Looking at the Hypnosis Phone App, whose screen had gone dark, Qian Ni thought of a joke.

Some vampires dared to conquer the world with only nine seconds of time stop.

Meanwhile, some shut-ins would only use a pocket watch with unlimited time stop for horny things.
