Qingshi Village · Night · Ancient Mountain Temple
The wild wind raged, and lightning tore through the sky. A young man knelt before the ruins of an ancient temple. Blood still stained his face. His fists were clenched tightly, and his nails dug into his palms. Blood dripped onto the ground.
"Lin Bufan, you useless body. Still want to cultivate? Dream on!"
In his ears echoed the derisive laughter of the clan elders, the cold mockery of his peers, and the indifferent gaze of fate.
But Lin Bufan smiled.
It was a smile filled with anger, stubbornness, and a hint of madness.
"Heaven wants me to live a mundane life?"
"I'm sorry. I won't listen."
At that moment—
[Ding! The Fate Reversal System has been successfully bound!
Welcome, host. The system has analyzed your life trajectory. You were supposed to die a sickly death at seventeen, your soul returning to dust."
[Now activated: Step One of Fate Reversal: Awaken Spiritual Roots."
"Mission: Interrupt the clan's sacrificial ceremony and seize the spiritual spring!
Rewards: Basic cultivation + Spiritual Root awakening + Combat skill 'Cloud Break Slash'!"
Lin Bufan's gaze sharpened, the fire in his eyes seeming to burn through the entire night sky.
"Steal from them? I'm good at that." He stood up, turned around, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Starting tonight, he would show Qingshi Village what it means to decide one's own fate.
