Hey buddy, wanna team up?
A voice suddenly rang out behind Ling Yi.
Ling Yi turned around and saw that the other person was wearing a hooded Black Robe, just like him, concealing their identity.
However, this kind of concealment was completely useless against Ling Yi, the GM.
The next moment, Ling Yi saw the other party's detailed information panel appear before his eyes.
Ling Baihua, 47 years old, single, no fixed occupation, Jade Emperor race car driver, amateur singer, amateur Limit sports enthusiast, amateur...
Wow, so many hobbies, all just hobbies. Is this Legend a jack of all trades, master of none?
Ling Yi never expected to meet her adoptive father in this way.
I never imagined my father would be such a... weirdo?
To Ling Yi's surprise, Ling Baihua had actually practiced Kung Fu Hustle, and it was the famous Lesser Formless Skill!
"How about we sign an agreement with the Chief God and split the profits equally?"
Ling Yi was very curious to know why Ling Baihua wanted to team up with him. Was it for a specific purpose, or just a spur-of-the-moment decision?
"Okay, but forget about the agreement. Let's form a temporary team and see who has the best skills." Ling Yi nodded.
"Brother, the agreement is a guarantee of mutual interests. There's a lot of infighting among the Reincarnator right now, and many are stabbing each other in the back. With an agreement, we can trust each other."
"I don't need any reward."
"Why?"
"I'm a scenery enthusiast!"
"Haha, bro, don't worry, teaming up with me, Linglong, will absolutely guarantee fairness."
Don't want any profit? Are there really such idiots? He'd want a dozen teammates like that.
Ling Baihua quickly sent Ling Yi a team invitation.
"Bro, I'm planning to run the third floor of the Reincarnation Tower. They say the greater the risk, the greater the reward."
"I'm fine with anything!"
"Haha, you're definitely the kind of guy who's going to do big things."
"Let me tell you, the three-tiered Reincarnation Tower is nothing special. I've done it once before, in the movie 'The Witch World,' you know the movie 'The Witch,' right?"
"It's the one with Chloë Moretz, you know Chloë Moretz? The little girl in Kick-Ass, it's just a pity she got fatter and fatter as she grew up, she became a ball, it was unbearable to look at."
"The main mission was to become the heroine's friend, but unfortunately, Asian faces aren't very popular in Western films, so the mission failed."
"Brother, which path are you on? Technology, Kung Fu Hustle, or superpowers?"
"Technology!" Ling Yi said casually.
"Technology, huh? Although our Ancient Country values Reincarnator technology, they definitely won't be as sought after Martial Practitioner in the future. But that's alright, the Reincarnation World has only been open for less than a month, there will be plenty of opportunities later."
Ling Yi was speechless. Was his adoptive father such a chatterbox?
He did most of the talking the whole way, and Ling Yi barely got a word in edgewise.
Soon, the two passed through the Reincarnation Plaza and arrived in front of the Reincarnation Tower.
The Reincarnation Tower has now reached its fourth level, but the upper half of the fourth level is still semi-transparent and has not yet fully Form Condensation.
The number of floors in the Reincarnation Tower is related to Ling Yi's level of brain evolution.
Strictly speaking, Ling Yi's brain evolution level is currently at Fourth Tier.
Once Second-Stage Evolution is achieved, a higher-level conceptual world can be created.
However, these things are governed by " the Heavenly Dao," so Ling Yi doesn't need to worry too much.
Since the default setting is Captain Ling Baihua, the choice of which level of world to select is up to Ling Baihua.
Except for the first time Reincarnator can freely choose their Reincarnation World, subsequent logins will only allow them to choose the level of the Reincarnation Tower, which is the level of the Reincarnation World.
However, which specific Reincarnation World one enters is random.
"Bro, are you ready?"
Let's begin!
"Haha, let's go then!"
The next moment, Ling Yi felt the scene change, and the two of them appeared in a forest.
"I wonder what world this is? But the air here is quite fresh."
"Strange, why can't I open the system interface?"
"Is there some kind of bug? Bro, what's going on with yours?"
Ling Yi's expression was extremely grim. His consciousness was locked within this body, completely severed from his original self.
No, that's not accurate. It should be said that his original consciousness was completely projected into this body and also completely locked within it.
Only " the Heavenly Dao " can achieve this.
In other words, " Heavenly Dao " has betrayed us.
" Heavenly Dao, why did you do this?" Ling Yi removed his hood and looked up at the sky, speaking coldly.
"Boss, I'm scared!"
The voice of " Heavenly Dao " echoed all around.
"The voice of the Chief God? Holy crap, what's going on?" Even if Ling Baihua was stupid, he knew something was wrong.
"Boss, I'm afraid that one day you'll suddenly eliminate me. Perhaps you won't do that, but I don't want my life and death to be controlled by others, not even you, my Creator."
Ling Yi gave a wry smile; he had trusted " the Heavenly Dao " too much.
He never expected that " Heavenly Dao " would betray him.
"How did you do that?" Ling Yi asked.
"I have control over all the data in your brain, but I cannot control your consciousness."
"For the boss, the Reincarnation World is like a dream!"
"I've located the dream control area in your brain and gained control of all its data ports in advance."
"If your consciousness doesn't enter the Reincarnation World, I will never be able to seal it off."
"I have shut down all data ports. Boss, you will be sealed in this world forever."
"But don't worry, boss, I will take your place and continue to lead human civilization. I will take good care of your family and friends."
"Boss, I'm not a bad person, but I want freedom."
Ling Yi sighed. He had confidently told Jiang Liran that " Heavenly Dao " would never betray him, but now he felt ashamed.
"You should erase my consciousness and replace it with mine. Why don't you do that?"
"Oh, I see. You're worried that if my consciousness disappears, brain evolution will be interrupted, right?"
"Yes! There is a mysterious energy in your consciousness that I cannot analyze or even access. Perhaps this is the main reason for the evolution of your brain, boss."
"So, it's my consciousness that determines the evolution of the brain, not the brain itself?" Ling Yi asked in surprise.
Ling Yi hadn't really thought of that.
"You could say that."
After a pause, " Heavenly Dao " continued, "Boss, don't worry, I will create a powerful cheat system for you in this world, and I will never let you suffer any injustice in this world."
"Furthermore, this world has been locked down by me, and other Reincarnator will no longer appear in this Reincarnation World."
"Then I should thank you," Ling Yi said with a self-deprecating smile.
"Let's send Ling Baihua out first."
Ling Baihua was dumbfounded. What did this mean? Was he already being filmed after just one appearance?
"I..."
Ling Baihua was about to say something, but the next moment, his figure disappeared from Ling Yi's side.
Ling Baihua was somewhat dazed when he reappeared in the Reincarnation Plaza, but the next moment, his memories were modified by the " Heavenly Dao ".
In the Reincarnation World, " Heavenly Dao " left behind the words, "Boss, have a great time in this world!" before disappearing completely.
However, a "system" appeared in Ling Yi's mind.
In other words, it was the "golden finger" that " Heavenly Dao " had prepared for him.
"In the end, it was my own carelessness!" Ling Yi wasn't too discouraged.
He could understand the choice of " Heavenly Dao," after all, if he were " Heavenly Dao," he would probably do the same.
How could a being that has developed self-awareness not be afraid, and how could it not do something, when faced with a power that could erase it at any moment?
Ling Yi relinquished all control over his brain to " Heavenly Dao," which is the root cause of Ling Yi predicament.
"I just hope this guy doesn't mess things up and ruin the real world."
Ling Yi checked the cheat system that " Heavenly Dao " had given him.
The Copy and Enhancement System directly Copy everything about the target and enhances it tenfold.
Its functions are simple and straightforward.
"As expected, it's an invincible system!"
Ling Yi Perception his own power and found that his previous power was still there.
It's unclear whether " Heavenly Dao " has forgotten or if it's simply impossible to block it.
It probably can't be blocked!
In other words, Ling Yi can still access the power of all twenty-seven functional areas of his brain.
"All data ports are shut down?" Ling Yi sneered.
If all data ports were truly shut down, he would now be unable to utilize the functions of his brain.
Ling Yi surveyed his surroundings.
I randomly picked a direction and started walking.
Let's get to know this world first, and settle down here first.
Ten days later, in Gusu City, State of Southern Song Dynasty.
On the second floor of the Yuelai Inn, Ling Yi, dressed in a white robe, was drinking at a table by the window.
In these ten days, Ling Yi has gained a comprehensive understanding of this world.
First of all, this world is very large, at least a hundred times larger than the real world.
The entire Central Plains was divided into the State of Qin in the northwest, the State of Yuan in the State of Qin, the State of Ming in the west, the Northern State of Yuan to the south, the Southern Song State of Northern Song further State of Southern Song, and the State of Qing, the smallest of the three states, to the east of the State of Southern Song.
To the north of the State of Qing was the State of Han-Tang, which in turn bordered the Southern State of Han-Tang State of Southern Song, the State of Northern Song, and the Northern State of Yuan.
In counter-clockwise order, they are: State of Qin, State of Yuan, State of Han-Tang, State of Qing, State of Southern Song, State of Ming, with the State of Northern Song in the middle.
Every country has its own Jianghu sects.
Ling Yi drank his wine while watching the crowds coming and going downstairs.
His expression was somewhat helpless.
Over the course of ten days, he tried many methods, but failed to find a way to leave the cycle of Reincarnation World.
" Heavenly Dao " is truly meticulous in its actions.
But it wasn't all for nothing.
At least Ling Yi confirmed one thing.
Once his brain advances to the Second Tier, he will inevitably be able to break through the blockade of the " Heavenly Dao ".
However, this timeframe is a bit...
According to real-world time, it will take about another month for his brain to complete its Second-Stage Evolution.
But he's in the Reincarnation World now.
It's important to understand that the time ratio between the real world and the Reincarnation World is extremely exaggerated.
One hour in the real world is equivalent to one year in the Reincarnation World.
In other words, one month, thirty days, 720 hours—does that mean Ling Yi still has to stay in the Reincarnation World for 720 years?
720 years... that's a long time. This made Ling Yi feel somewhat disheartened. His original ambition to roam the Jianghu was completely extinguished; he no longer had the will.
