Sure enough, it was a golden orb of light. Yuan Ming, the second person who transmigrated into a book!

Ling Yi took out a jade slip and tossed it to Yuan Ming.

This jade slip contained the original text of a novel that I obtained from Qin Ya; its title was "The Sect's Useless Trash, I Awakened the Devouring System!"

Yuan Ming was dumbfounded when he saw the name on the jade slip.

"You even got your hands on the original novel? Bro, where did you get it?"

"You guess!"

"Forehead..."

"Next, I need to do a few tests, but don't worry, at most your system will be dormant for a while."

" Big Shot, what are you going to do?" Yuan Ming suddenly had a bad feeling.

Yuan Ming immediately knew what was going to happen.

[Ding! Warning! Warning! The system's Origin Energy is rapidly depleting.]

[Ding! Warning! Warning! The system's Origin Energy has reached a critical level; the system is about to enter hibernation.]

[Ding, system is about to hibernate, hibernation countdown...]

Before the countdown even started, Yuan Ming's system went silent.

"System, hello, system?" Yuan Ming was immediately shocked.

The system was his only asset in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and its sudden slumber made Yuan Ming panic.

"I told you not to worry, the system will awaken in a month at most." Ling Yi looked at the large golden celestial Light Ball that had appeared in the Devouring Warehouse.

He nodded in satisfaction.

Sure enough, the life energy of the golden sage could be extracted from the systems of these transmigrators.

Why is there only one Light Ball?

Because Ling Yi is now at the Great Perfection of the Body Integration Realm, the absorption rate of the Life Devouring Entry has reached 80%.

It can only absorb once. If it does it again, Yuan Ming's system will lose every last drop of its Origin Energy.

This could very likely cause Yuan Ming's system to crash directly, or even fall into a permanent hibernation state.

Of course, it's also possible that the system still exists, and its Origin Energy will gradually recover.

However, there's no rush to conduct Limit tests.

When you catch more leeks later, find one you don't like and then do this extreme test.

Life Devouring, then Insight Devouring.

Instantly, a white Light Ball flew out from Yuan Ming's forehead.

[Ding! System function module detected, in progress cracking!]

[Ding, successful crack. This feature module is now: God Grade Sign-In.]

[Ding, load the Main System interface?]

Ling Yi chose no.

Anyway, this feature module can be loaded at any time, so let's save it first.

Ling Yi isn't lacking in those special advantages.

Oh, right, there's also a system function module I got from Qin Ya in the Devouring Space: Charm Demon Aura!

However, they're all gathering dust in the Devouring Space now.

Charm Demon Aura.

Hmm, this Charm Demon Aura is actually most suitable for the little fox; it's a perfect Divine Ability for her Nine-Tails Fox innate abilities.

When Hu Ji returns, we'll give her this Charm Demon Aura.

Without the system's shielding effect, Yuan Ming's true cultivation level was revealed.

Second Layer of Nascent Soul Realm.

Who could have imagined that this infamous useless prodigy of the Cold Nether Sect, an ordinary person without Spiritual Root, would actually possess the Nascent Soul level of a Nascent Soul cultivator?

Compared to air pressure, Yuan Ming was much calmer when faced with the system's hibernation.

" Big Shot, how did you do that?" Yuan Ming asked curiously.

"Of course it's about Devouring Entry, don't you know that?"

"But your Devouring Entry can even devour other people's systems? That's too outrageous!"

Ling Yi stroked his chin and said, "Is that outrageous? I'm the real Protagonist in the novel, okay? It's normal for my system to be a little overpowered."

"Is this normal? In short dramas, aren't the transmigrators always the Protagonist? I always thought I was the Protagonist!" Yuan Ming, somewhat annoyed.

"If there's only one transmigrator, then that might be the Protagonist. But if there are a bunch of transmigrators, then who's the Protagonist?"

"Pile?"

"Oh, I see. You originally obtained this novel from another transmigrator, so you, the original Protagonist of the book, awakened."

Ling Yi nodded. "Use your imagination. I'll admit defeat if you guess the truth."

I don't even know the truth myself!

"Are there really that many transmigrators?" Yuan Ming asked again.

"From what I've discovered, there are already more than twenty transmigrators."

"No way!" Yuan Ming was a little stunned.

"Then what are we transmigrators?"

"I guess I'm the leek (a term for someone who is exploited or taken advantage of), the leek of the Protagonist."

Yuan Ming was frustrated. Had he really become a lamb to the slaughter? Had he transmigrated into this book for nothing?

" Big Shot, you're not planning to arrest all the transmigrators and use them as your fodder, are you?!"

Ling Yi nodded. "The more leeks there are, the more you can harvest."

"Then, is there any possibility of escaping the status of being exploited?" Yuan Ming asked again.

Is this possible?

have!

When we can no longer extract Origin Energy from these systems, that's when we'll be able to shed our status as "leeks" (victims).

But it's unlikely to happen in the short term.

Heavenly Dao is foolish, constantly giving these transmigrators' systems money.

And Heavenly Dao's resources should be quite substantial.

They won't go bankrupt anytime soon.

Just charge slowly and take your profits gradually.

A dozen minutes later, the flying boat came to a stop above Qingyun Market.

Ling Yi, carrying Yuan Ming, flew out of the flying boat.

With a thought, the flying boat began to shrink.

In the blink of an eye, it shrank to less than the size of a palm and fell into Ling Yi's hand.

The miniature flying boat looks like a wooden sculpture model.

Ling Yi put it into his storage ring, then descended from the sky with Yuan Ming in his arms.

We entered the Curiosities Pavilion.

"Main body, you've arrived?" The Clone greeted Ling Yi.

"Tell me, what exactly happened? Why did you suddenly cut off contact with me?" Ling Yi asked.

" Qin Ya's system has become stronger. I had just found her when she discovered me, and then she severed the connection between me and you, and blocked all my Perception."

"Right now, I am completely unable to project my Spiritual Sense outwards."

"So you're completely useless now?" Ling Yi frowned.

"Uh, more or less."

Is there any possibility of recovery?

The Clone Perception its own condition. "It's not permanent; it should recover in three days at most."

"This Qin Ya is something else!" Ling Yi became interested.

"Um, you two, please wait a moment!" Yuan Ming gestured for them to stop.

"You, are you your Clone?" Yuan Ming pointed at the Clone, then at Ling Yi's original body.

"Yes, you should have heard of the Wansheng Clone Method, right?" the Clone laughed.

"Is that the Wansheng Clone Method of the Wansheng Willow God?" Yuan Ming suddenly realized.

The Wansheng Clone Method is a bug-like Divine Ability in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Ling Yi actually got his hands on the Wansheng Clone Method so early?

But thinking about it, it's normal. After all, Ling Yi had read the "original text," so it's not surprising that he obtained the Wansheng Clone Method in advance.

"I feel like something's not right."

Yuan Ming glanced at his Clone, then at the incredibly ugly Shitou displayed in the corner of the counter.

"Wow, Big Shot, could this Shitou be fake?"

The Clone laughed loudly, "Before you, there have been six people who came to this Curiosities Pavilion, all for this Shitou. You savor it, you examine it closely."

Yuan Ming flipped his hand, and an ugly stone appeared in his palm.

With a little force, the ugly stone shattered into pieces.

"Damn it, it really is fake!" Yuan Ming was on the verge of tears.

"You Blackheart! Give me back my Spirit Stone!"

Just then, an angry female voice rang out from outside the shop.

" Blackheart boss, how dare you cheat this fairy! You're dead!"
