Primordial World:
Purple-robed Daoist--real name Lu Xian--is preparing for his future promotion to Quasi-Saint (No. Tier 10). He chose this world because it has a very high power limit and provides countless opportunities. For example, the current timeline is at the end of War of the Primordial Three Clans. Dragon, Phoenix and Qilin have been fighting each other for supremacy over Primordial World.
However, they don't know that they have gone too far. Because they have killed too many creatures, these three races have accumulated too much karma. Soon, Heavenly Dao - also known as Cosmic Will in this world - will condemn their actions and encourage practitioners all over the world to eliminate these three races of mythical beasts.
Lu Xian has been waiting for this opportunity. Once Heavenly Dao speaks, he will come out and start hunting these three tribes. Every time he kills one of them, he will gain a small amount of Merit - a power that is almost as versatile as World Origin in ability. As long as he accumulates enough Merit, he can become a saint in less than five hundred years and reach the Tier 10.
[Ding! You got 50 points World Essence]
"Huh?" Lu Xian muttered to himself. World Essence is his Divine Artifact's way of quantifying World Origin. He was surprised why he had to be notified of such a small amount. "System, why are you telling me this?"
[A Reincarnators with Ten-Star potential entered the temple.]
"Are you serious?" According to the system's analysis of a person's potential, Ten-Star is the highest level. Strictly speaking, he is the only Ten-Star Reincarnators. That is because the system used World Origin to reshape his body and soul. Currently, the highest level person in his hall is only Seven-Star, or 7.5 stars.
"Who is it?" Ian's personal information appeared in front of him. "The smartest person alive? Is this white devil a little too arrogant?" Lu Xian sneered after reading the preliminary information. However, after reading through it, he had to admit that this person was a genius.
"But just being a genius is not enough to be called Ten-Star potential, right? Show me what he did after entering the temple."
The screen turned and showed the mission process of Ian in the "Resident Evil" movie world. Seeing how the latter completed the mission perfectly, Lu Xian was silent. Lu Xian, or Purple-robed Daoist, was the first person to complete the mission perfectly, and he was also in the Resident Evil world at that time. However, Lu Xian knew that strictly speaking he was cheating.
Before the mission began, he was already Seventh Level of Qi Refining, which was considered the pinnacle of the first level at the time, even reaching Second Tier. As soon as the mission began, he found a secluded place to refine those Purification Talismans. Then he flew to every corner of Raccoon City, arranged these talismans, and formed a formation that could affect the entire city. Finally, he activated the formation to purify all Zombie and eliminate the virus in their bodies.
Lu Xian knew that without his powerful magic power and flying magic weapon, he would not be able to succeed. However, this Ian completed the task entirely by relying on his wisdom and strategy. Lu Xian squinted his eyes and continued to observe. He saw how Ian used Alchemy to basically create Doctor Doom's armor.
'Is anyone really that smart?' He immediately became suspicious and began to dig deeper. He found that Ian was even more powerful than he thought. Most of the technologies used to make the armor had already been created or were theoretically possible. What Ian lacked were only materials, resources and some key knowledge, and Samsara Hall provided exactly these.
"System, put him on the watch list," Lu Xian ordered. "And make sure his tasks are the most challenging." Lu Xian knows that such a capable person can definitely complete these tasks, including those of the perfect level. More difficult tasks mean more World Origin can be brought to him and the system. As for the threat the latter poses to him? Although he is a threat, it is not a big one. Ian has just started, which means he is far behind. In addition, he has chosen the technological route, which starts quickly but progresses very slowly as the level increases.
[As you wish.]
[You have met the conditions for promotion Lieutenant Rank. Do you accept the task? Yes/No]
"No," Ian replied.
[Reminder: Since you are now Tier 3, you can only participate in a maximum of 2 more soldier-level missions, and promotion missions will be mandatory after that.]
"I know," Ian nodded. There are two more missions, which means that he can complete two more perfect missions, or get an additional 20,000 points. Ian is not just here to take the Divine Artifact; he also needs to get some world coordinates in case this mission fails. After making his choice, he walked out of his room. He was teleported to Market District.
The scene here can only be described as bizarre. Wizards, knights, elves, cyborgs, ninjas, aliens, Werewolf, Vampire, superheroes, and even Cthulhu monsters can be seen everywhere. The corner of Ian's mouth twitched. This was not because the composition of the people here was so mixed, but because he saw many people surrounded by Hermione, Luna and many parallel universe versions of their wives. He really wanted to scold these people who had no moral bottom line, but even he was not shameless enough to be so hypocritical.
He sighed secretly, turned and walked away. Many eyes were staring at him. Power Armor is very common here, but the most popular ones are those inspired by Iron Man or Gundam.
His Doctor Doom Armor is very rare, especially since he also wears a white robe outside, instead of the green robe that Doctor Doom often wears in the comics. More importantly, a person named Lord of Destruction has just become famous, and an unexpected figure wearing Doctor Doom Armor suddenly appears, which will naturally arouse people's suspicion.
Ian took this opportunity to get to know Market District, and he finally realized how serious the racial segregation in this hall was. Even the market was divided into areas ruled by people from different countries. Although this division allowed specific areas to have their own specialty products, it also further aggravated the tension and hostility between different ethnic groups.
'Once Purple-robed Daoist fully controls that Divine Artifact, he will let China conquer the entire earth. He will most likely promote immortality to the whole country and let them establish a civilization where technology and immortality coexist. At the same time, he will either completely eliminate other countries, or force them to become soldiers in Divine Artifact and collect World Origin for him.'
Ian is all too familiar with this playbook. In the early days of the Empire, many Britains and even United States's Muggless tried to convince him to establish a system that would keep their country on top and everyone else underfoot.
These people even succeeded in convincing some wizards to adopt their ideology. So, Ian had to eliminate a large number of people to ensure that Arcane Empire was not founded on bigotry, hatred, and white supremacy.
He has always been clear that the best system for the Empire is a benevolent dictatorship, which is why he rarely interferes in the Empire's political situation. Most people know him because of his powerful magical abilities, not his ability to rule.
After this brief analysis of the current Samsara Hall situation, Ian focused on completing his mission. After looking around, he found a person selling Seamless Stretching Bag, a bag that had been imprinted with Undetectable Extension Charm from "Harry Potter". The bag looks small, but it's large enough to hold the suit of armor. In addition, it also comes with a second spell that shrinks large items so they can fit inside.
Ian bargained with the seller and finally spent 600 points to buy this thing. He also asked for a little magic power from the other party. Ian stored this magic power in a Alchemical Array to activate the bag. After buying this, he didn't have enough money left to buy Curse-Protection Doll and Mind Amulet. So, he went to another area of the hall: Task Hall.
Reincarnators prefer to trade with each other rather than with the Samsara Hall. Task Hall was established by them to issue tasks and ask each other for help. Ian plans to find a way to earn enough points to buy those two items.
