Chapter 1 Ye Chen
Heaven Dou Empire, Fasinuo Province, Nuoding City.
In a small courtyard in the south of the city, a young boy was running laps around the courtyard wall, exercising his body.
"Phew~, so tired, I'll rest for a bit."
Perhaps he had been running for quite some time, as the young boy was a bit exhausted and decided to rest for a while.
Though he said he was resting, he didn't forget to stretch his limbs.
The reason he insisted on exercising was naturally because the young boy knew that a strong physique would be of great help to his future growth.
The young boy's name was Ye Chen, a transmigator from Blue Star who had died unexpectedly after staying up late watching anime.
Perhaps because he hadn't drunk the legendary Meng Po Soup, he arrived on Douluo Continent with his memories from his previous life.
Ye Chen was very excited about being able to transmigrate to Douluo Continent, because Douluo Continent had the extraordinary profession of Spirit Master.
As long as one became a Spirit Master, one could possess extraordinary power that ordinary people did not have.
If a Spirit Master could obtain a ninth spirit ring and advance to Titled Douluo, then he could become a revered Under the Crown, and even his lifespan limit could be greatly increased.
If he could even become a Divinity, then he would not only gain immense power but also possess endless life.
Power and lifespan – this made Ye Chen, a chuunibyou youth who loved reading novels and watching anime,'s blood boil, not to mention the many fair maidens on the Continent.
But he knew that becoming a Titled Douluo, or even a Divinity, was extremely difficult.
Looking across the entire Douluo Continent, among billions of beings, only a few dozen had reached the Titled Douluo realm in spirit power.
As for Divinity, within ten thousand years, the only one Ye Chen clearly knew of was the Sea God. Hmm, perhaps the Angel God also became a Divinity within ten thousand years? That's not entirely clear.
However, in about twenty years, three Divinities would appear consecutively on the Continent.
But this probably had nothing to do with Ye Chen, after all, whether he could cultivate to become a Titled Douluo, or even a Divinity, would require talent far exceeding that of ordinary geniuses.
And the quality of one's talent had a lot to do with whether one's parents were powerful.
Generally speaking, if parents had strong talent and high strength, their children would generally not be too bad.
If parents' talent was lacking and their strength was low, then it was basically hopeless.
However, this was not absolute; with a large enough base, there would always be a few exceptions, but this was generally the case.
Ye Chen's parents were merely small three-ring Spirit Ancestors; although they were considered notable figures in a remote small city like Nuoding City, they amounted to nothing when viewed across the entire Douluo Continent.
Moreover, it was well known that the protagonist's parents were a high-risk profession.
Nuoding City was not far from the border between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, and the Star Luo Empire was powerful, always aspiring to annex the Heaven Dou Empire.
Although the Two Great Empires would not launch large-scale wars near Nuoding City, small skirmishes still occurred from time to time.
Indeed, Ye Chen's parents both perished in a small skirmish last year.
"Damn this war!"
Recalling his unfortunate parents, Ye Chen cursed under his breath.
In his previous life, the most bloody thing he had ever done was tear off chicken wings and drumsticks when slaughtering a chicken. When his parents' bloody corpses were sent back by their comrades for burial, the young Ye Chen at the time was utterly devastated.
Ye Chen could not forget such deep hatred, but he didn't even know who his enemies were, so he could only pin the blame on the Star Luo Empire.
"When I achieve success in cultivation in the future, I will surely exterminate the Star Luo Empire!"
A hateful glint appeared in Ye Chen's bright eyes.
However, if there were no surprises, he wouldn't live to see that day.
His parents' Spirits and talents were all unremarkable, so Ye Chen's talent would likely be the same.
But there wasn't no way to get revenge. As a modern person, although Ye Chen couldn't say he was proficient in firearms, a weapon of war, he still knew a bit about them and understood their general principles.
Ye Chen planned that if he couldn't become a master in the future, he would join Spirit Hall, light up the firearms technology tree for Spirit Hall, and strengthen their military power.
Anyway, Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong had ambitions to unify the Continent, and the Star Luo Empire was an insurmountable obstacle, which would incidentally help Ye Chen get his revenge.
The Godly Zhuge Crossbow that Little San concocted in the original work posed a great threat to four-ring Spirit Ancestors. It stands to reason that even an ordinary bolt-action rifle from his previous life could blow someone's head off with a single shot, right?
Having made such a great contribution, and taking the mature Supreme Pontiff to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to snatch the Immortal Herbs, becoming a mere Titled Douluo shouldn't be a problem.
However, this was just the worst-case scenario. If his talent was outstanding and he could become a master, then Ye Chen wouldn't need to resort to this.
After all, although Douluo Continent was only known as the 'Xuanhuan Sewer', it was also a World where great power was concentrated in individuals. The most top-tier powerhouses were not something that low-level Spirit Masters and ordinary people could resist.
"Everything depends on the Spirit awakening ceremony three days from now!"
Thinking that in three days it would be Spirit Hall's monthly free Spirit awakening for commoner children, Ye Chen's eyes showed anticipation.
Unlike small villages like Saint Spirit Village, where Spirit Hall's Spirit awakening deacon would only visit once a year, Nuoding City had a dedicated Spirit awakening deacon who would provide free Spirit awakenings for commoner children every month.
It wasn't that Ye Chen didn't have gold coins and had to wait for the free awakening.
His parents had served in the Heaven Dou Empire military, and their usual salaries were considerable. Moreover, after their deaths, the military also issued some pensions to Ye Chen.
No official dared to embezzle the pensions issued by the military, one reason being supervision, and the other being potential future trouble.
"Don't bully a young man for being poor" – there was still truth to that saying.
If the orphan did not awaken innate spirit power in the future and could not become a Spirit Master, only an ordinary person, then it would be fine, no trouble would arise.
But if he had good talent in the future and became a high-level Spirit Master, then it would be over.
He didn't even need to be too strong; having two or three levels of innate spirit power and being able to become a three- or four-ring Spirit Master would be enough.
Because Spirit Masters above Spirit Ancestor would certainly not care for such a small pension.
However, Ye Chen also had no intention of paying someone to awaken his Spirit, because he had just passed his sixth birthday not long ago, and even if he paid someone to awaken his Spirit early, it would only be a few days earlier in cultivation.
Another reason was that the family's savings were not much and needed to be kept as living expenses for the future.
"I hope that in three days, I can also awaken with innate full spirit power and twin spirits!"
Although Ye Chen knew that he was highly unlikely to awaken such powerful talent, one had to have some hope in life, didn't he?Chapter 2: Blind Douluo wants to awaken my martial soul personally?
Three days later, early in the morning, Ye Chen left his home and headed to the Spirit Hall Branch in the city.
He jogged towards the Spirit Hall Branch, and since the distance wasn't far, after a few minutes, Ye Chen saw the Nuoding City Spirit Hall Branch.
Spirit Hall was quite wealthy; even though it was just a small Spirit Hall Branch, it was still the most magnificent building in Nuoding City, even more luxurious than the City Lord's Mansion.
It was hard to imagine how much grander and more upscale the Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City and the Supreme Pontiff Palace in Spirit City must be!
Although the social background of the Douluo Continent was generally similar to the ancient times of Ye Chen's previous life, in terms of architecture, some high-end or important places were not inferior to those in his previous life at all.
The work of Spirit Hall was not just about awakening Spirits for children, so the Spirit awakening ceremony was not held in the main hall, but in a side hall next to it.
Although the door to the side hall was still closed at this time, there were already seven or eight children of Ye Chen's age, lined up and waiting with hopeful expressions.
Without much hesitation, Ye Chen also joined the queue.
During the wait, more than ten children successively lined up behind Ye Chen.
Nuoding City was not large; excluding small villages like Saint Spirit Village, Imperial Spirit Village, and Royal Spirit Village, the city's population was only around ten thousand people, but many children needed to awaken their Spirits each year.
Ye Chen felt that, regardless of whether their starting point was to recruit talents, Spirit Hall, by offering free Spirit awakening for children of appropriate age, was much stronger than the Two Great Empires just on this point alone.
Furthermore, Spirit Hall also provided Spirit Master subsidies to low-level Spirit Masters, which greatly increased Ye Chen's goodwill.
Although these subsidized gold coins were all paid for by the Two Great Empires and their various subordinate kingdoms and duchies, if there were no Spirit Hall, there would certainly be no Spirit Master subsidies.
Wanting those noble lords to pay money was simply a pipe dream!
Hmm, speaking of which, Spirit Hall is so rich, could they be cooking the books? Ye Chen thought that this wasn't impossible!
Another half an hour passed, and the door to the side hall opened.
A young man, about twenty years old, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and a very handsome appearance, appeared.
This young man was wearing a white outfit with a black cloak, and in the center of his chest was a fist-sized 'Spirit' character.
"Su Yuntao?"
Ye Chen, who was queuing, immediately brightened when he saw this young man.
Although Su Yuntao was only a two-ring Spirit Grandmaster, in a small place like Nuoding City, he was considered a notable figure, and his reputation was not low, so it was not surprising that Ye Chen recognized him.
Seeing Su Yuntao, this 'Blind Douluo', about to personally awaken his Spirit, Ye Chen was confident that he would awaken an even more powerful talent.
After all, a child with innate full spirit power and twin spirits had appeared under Su Yuntao's watch; even if he wasn't that, he should still have some kind of luck bonus, right?
Speaking of which, has Little San awakened his Spirit yet?
Although he was also born in the year 2630 of the Douluo calendar, the same age as Little San, he wasn't sure whether Little San had awakened his Spirit yet.
"Children, come in, I will awaken your Spirits now!"
Su Yuntao said to Ye Chen and the others who were obediently queuing.
Su Yuntao was accustomed to the children waiting at the door; at the beginning of each month, this side hall would always be like this.
Subsequently, Ye Chen and the others entered the side hall in the order they had queued.
It wasn't that the children were well-behaved and would queue obediently without being told.
Rather, their respective parents had instructed them that in Spirit Hall, they must always be obedient and follow arrangements, because everyone in Spirit Hall was a Spirit Master lord, and their families could not afford to offend them.
As for those with wealthy families, or those with Spirit Master elders in their families, they all awakened their Spirits at home and would not come to Spirit Hall.
"My name is Su Yuntao, a twenty-sixth-level Spirit Grandmaster, and I am your guide.
Now, I will awaken your Spirits one by one. Remember, no matter what happens later, don't be afraid!"
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Su Yuntao said gently.
With that, Su Yuntao took out six dark, round awakening stones and a blue crystal ball for testing spirit power, arranging them in a hexagon on the ground.
Don't be afraid?
All the children present were bewildered, but only Ye Chen knew that this was the Blind Douluo giving them a heads-up.
Because Su Yuntao's Spirit was a wolf, and his spirit power level was not high, he needed to use Spirit possession when awakening Spirits for children, and scaring children into crying was a frequent occurrence.
Su Yuntao shouted, "Lone Wolf, possess!"
Instantly, two spirit rings, one white and one yellow, appeared.
A faint blue light first emanated from the center of his forehead, moving upwards along his brow, turning his originally black hair gray and causing it to lengthen rapidly.
At the same time, gray fur also appeared on his exposed hands, his body swelled a size, and he looked like a muscular werewolf.
"Ah~"
As soon as the 'werewolf' appeared, several children present were indeed frightened.
Even Ye Chen, who was mentally prepared, was startled, though he didn't show it on the surface.
Speaking of which, Su Yuntao's Spirit was also peculiar; a wolf was a wolf, but a lone wolf? Wasn't that just a single dog?
Soon, under Su Yuntao's soothing, all the children present calmed down.
"Alright, you stand in the awakening formation."
Su Yuntao gestured to the little boy at the very front of the line.
Then, Su Yuntao quickly clapped his hands, injecting spirit power into the six awakening stones on the ground.
Immediately, a layer of golden light emanated from the six awakening stones, forming a faint golden cover that enveloped the little boy, and countless golden light points merged into the little boy's body.
"Hold out your right hand."
The 'werewolf' Su Yuntao said to the little boy.
The little boy subconsciously complied, and light points surged out. In an instant, a kitchen knife appeared in his hand.
"Tool Spirit, kitchen knife. Little friend, use your mind to recall your Spirit and test your spirit power."
Saying that, Su Yuntao placed the spirit power testing crystal ball in his hand in front of the little boy.
The tender little hand was placed on the spirit power testing crystal ball, but no light shone forth.
"No spirit power, unable to cultivate. Next."
Su Yuntao was slightly disappointed. The first one today had no innate spirit power. Was today not suitable for Spirit awakening?
"No spirit power?"
If Su Yuntao was only slightly disappointed, then the little boy was greatly disappointed, as without innate spirit power, one could not become a Spirit Master.Chapter 3: Soul Awakening
And a Spirit Master is the noblest profession on the continent, and only by becoming a Spirit Master can commoners achieve the best path to advancement.
"Tool Spirit, Scythe, no spirit power."
"Tool Spirit, Hoe, innate level 1 spirit power, can become a Spirit Master."
"Tool Spirit, Rolling Pin, no spirit power."
Before long, only a little girl remained in front of Ye Chen.
"Tool Spirit, Blue Silver Grass? No spirit power. Sure enough, Blue Silver Grass is a trash Spirit!"
Looking at the Blue Silver Grass Spirit awakened by the little girl in front of him, Su Yuntao couldn't help but complain.
"Handsome Big Brother, is it impossible for Blue Silver Grass to have innate spirit power?"
Ye Chen asked Su Yuntao.
"Hmm? Little friend, you're very sweet-tongued, so sensible!
As far as I know, the Blue Silver Grass Spirit isn't absolutely without innate spirit power, it's just that the probability of innate spirit power appearing is much lower than with other Spirits. And even if there is innate spirit power, it's definitely not high.
I've been a Spirit Awakening Deacon for quite some time, and I've never seen a child with a Blue Silver Grass Spirit possess innate spirit power."
Hearing someone call him 'Handsome Big Brother,' Su Yuntao felt delighted and began to explain things to Ye Chen.
"Is that so?"
Hearing Su Yuntao say that, Ye Chen confirmed that the current Little San likely hadn't awakened his Spirit yet.
After all, a Blue Silver Grass with innate full spirit power would surely shock Su Yuntao for a lifetime, right? He would absolutely never forget it!
"Alright, little friend, it's your turn. I wish you awaken innate spirit power."
Ye Chen was polite at a young age and also cute, so Su Yuntao offered him a blessing.
Subsequently, Ye Chen stood in the awakening formation. As Su Yuntao infused his spirit power, a faint golden light once again illuminated from within the awakening formation.
'So comfortable~'
Ye Chen, within the golden light curtain, immediately felt a warm current enter his body, so comfortable that he closed his eyes.
Soon, Ye Chen felt as if something was emerging from his right hand.
'Uh, is it only a single Spirit?'
There was no movement in his left hand, which meant he had only awakened one Spirit. His beautiful dream of awakening twin spirits was officially shattered.
'There's still a chance. As long as I awaken high-level innate spirit power, I won't be bad in the future.'
Having finally come to the Douluo Continent, if he couldn't reach the pinnacle, wouldn't that be a lifelong regret?
Thinking this, he opened his eyes, and Ye Chen looked at his right hand.
Only to see a vibrant green Bamboo Staff appear in his palm.
'Bamboo Staff Spirit?'
On the continent, there are many types of Spirits, with different quality divisions, from low to high: ordinary Spirits, advanced Spirits, top-tier Spirits, and divine Spirits.
For example, scythes, hoes, and rolling pins are all ordinary quality Spirits. Although Blue Silver Grass is called a trash Spirit, it also falls into the category of ordinary Spirits.
As for advanced Spirits, they include Azure Serpent, Dragon Pattern Staff, and Vigorous Vajra Bear.
Top-tier Spirits are synonymous with powerful Spirits, the most well-known being the Clear Sky Hammer, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and White Tiger, among others.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit inherited by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, although its auxiliary effect is considered the best in the world, can only be classified as a pseudo-top-tier Spirit due to its flaws. Only the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can be considered a true top-tier Spirit.
Divine Spirits, naturally, need no further explanation. Only Spirits inherited from a Divinity are divine Spirits.
Looking across the entire Douluo Continent, there are only two types: the Seraphim Spirit of the Spirit Hall and the Sea God Spirit of Sea God Island.
Divine Spirits are not only powerful in quality but also come with an innate Domain. Furthermore, those who awaken a divine Spirit will generally not have low innate spirit power, and becoming a Titled Douluo is absolutely effortless.
Ye Chen's parents in this life, his father's Spirit was an iron rod, and his mother's Spirit was a Bamboo Staff. Both Spirits were of similar quality, both ordinary Spirits, so it was normal for him to awaken a Bamboo Staff Spirit.
It's just a pity that without twin spirits, Ye Chen had originally hoped that he could also undergo a Spirit mutation like Ma Hongjun, directly transforming from a 'pheasant to a phoenix.' Now, it seems that this hope is also gone.
Perhaps for those with powerful inherited Spirits, it's best if the Spirit doesn't mutate.
Because mutations are divided into two types: one is a beneficial mutation, making the Spirit even stronger; the other is a malignant mutation, where the mutated Spirit is even weaker than the original.
But for someone of ordinary origin like Ye Chen, a Spirit mutation is definitely more beneficial than harmful. After all, his Spirit isn't that great to begin with, so how much worse could it get?
"Bamboo Staff Spirit, little friend, let's test your innate spirit power!"
Su Yuntao placed the spirit power testing crystal ball in front of Ye Chen.
'Heaven help me, even if it's not innate full spirit power, please don't let there be no innate spirit power at all!'
The quality of a Spirit is closely related to the level of one's innate spirit power. It's impossible for a Spirit to be unremarkable yet possess innate full spirit power.
At this moment, Ye Chen wasn't thinking about innate full spirit power anymore; he only hoped that he wouldn't even lack innate spirit power.
If he had innate spirit power, even if it was level one, or even half a level, he would still have a chance in the future.
On the Douluo Continent, although treasures that can change one's talent are rare, they are not nonexistent.
But if there truly wasn't even a tiny bit of innate spirit power, then there would be absolutely no hope.
He wasn't some great god from a fanfiction novel who could open up other cultivation systems and become a master even without innate spirit power.
Subsequently, Ye Chen placed his right hand on the spirit power testing crystal ball.
As his hand rested on the crystal ball, Ye Chen immediately felt a suction force emanating from the spirit power testing crystal ball.
Soon, the spirit power testing crystal ball lit up, emitting a faint blue glow.
"Not bad, innate level 3 spirit power. Little friend, keep up the good work! Cultivate diligently, and becoming a Spirit Ancestor in the future won't be a problem."
Su Yuntao felt a slight sense of relief. In his opinion, level 3 innate spirit power was already quite good.
He had been a Spirit Awakening Deacon for quite some time and had awakened Spirits for many children, but those whose talent could surpass Ye Chen's were truly few and far between.
After all, those who needed the Spirit Hall's help to awaken their Spirits were all commoner children. If their parents didn't pass down powerful Spirits and talent, and their Spirits didn't mutate, it was very difficult for high-level innate spirit power to appear.
'Level 3 innate spirit power?'
Su Yuntao felt relieved about Ye Chen's talent, but Ye Chen was not. What good was level 3 innate spirit power?
If he cultivated honestly, by the time Little San became a God, he might still be just an extra at the Spirit Grandmaster level!Chapter 4: The Godly System
"Thank you, big brother!"
Ye Chen, who had come with great anticipation, felt a bit bitter inside, but still politely thanked Su Yuntao.
"Haha, you're welcome, it's my duty."
Afterward, Su Yutao registered Ye Chen's Spirit and innate spirit power, and issued a Spirit certificate.
Ye Chen, feeling a slight unwillingness, took his Spirit certificate and turned to leave the Spirit Hall.
Su Yutao watched Ye Chen's retreating back, thinking to himself—'I hope my and Sisi's child will be as polite as him in the future.'
As for Sisi not having accepted his pursuit yet? That wasn't important! In Su Yutao's eyes, within the Nuoding City Spirit Hall Branch, he was Sisi's best partner!
Su Yutao: Who else but me?!
....
"Sigh, innate spirit power of level 3, am I really that bad?"
After leaving the Spirit Hall Branch, Ye Chen walked towards his home, muttering to himself.
This was Ye Chen being greedy; one should know that many people on the Douluo Continent are unable to awaken innate spirit power, and even among those who do, most don't reach level 3.
To be honest, for a child from an ordinary family in Nuoding City to awaken level 3 innate spirit power, they could already host guests and celebrate with a grand feast.
The ideal was plump, but reality was bony. Just as Ye Chen was planning his various future schemes, an unexpected change occurred.
"Ding~, Godly rich System binding: 1%... 50%..."
"???"
Ye Chen was stunned, thinking he had misheard, but upon seeing a progress bar appear in his vision, he finally confirmed that his cheat had arrived.
"Wait, Godly rich System?!"
At this moment, Ye Chen felt like crying.
This Godly rich System, judging by the literal meaning, should be for giving money, right? If it were in his previous life, Ye Chen would definitely reach the pinnacle of life, but he was on the Douluo Continent now!
Can money buy powerful talent? Can money buy a powerful Spirit? Can money make him a Titled Douluo or even a Divinity?
Although Ye Chen thought so, having a cheat was better than having none. With enough money, he could indeed speed up his cultivation, at least he wouldn't have to struggle for living expenses.
However, there was one thing Ye Chen was worried about: would the money given by this Godly rich System be RMB?
RMB would not be recognized on the Douluo Continent; it was no different from waste paper, too stiff even for wiping one's bottom.
"I hope this cheat son isn't such a scam!"
Ye Chen thought to himself.
"Ding~, Godly rich System binding complete."
"[Attribute Panel] and [System Shop] are now open. PS: The host can open or close them by silently thinking."
"Host level is Spirit Scholar, gold coin +1, gold coin +1, gold coin +1..."
"Attribute Panel? System Shop? gold coin?"
Ye Chen's eyes lit up. Fortunately, his cheat son was honoring him with gold coins, which were universally used on the Douluo Continent, and not the scamming RMB.
Well, it was a cheat after all, how could such a big blunder occur?
Not rushing to open the Attribute Panel and System Shop, Ye Chen began counting the gold coins his cheat son was honoring him with.
Due to the lack of a timer, Ye Chen could only roughly estimate, finding that the frequency of each gold coin +1 was about one second.
'There are 365 days in a year, 24 hours in a day, 60 minutes in an hour, 60 seconds in a minute. Doesn't that mean my cheat son honors me, his father, with over thirty-one million gold coins every year?'
As his math wasn't very good, Ye Chen finally calculated it after a long time of mental arithmetic.
This was the rhythm of getting rich?
Moreover, the cheat son 'said' that his spirit power level was Spirit Scholar, and each time it was gold coin +1. If his spirit power level increased, wouldn't it be even more? Truly worthy of being the Godly rich System!
Presumably, with his 'son's' filial piety, Ye Chen in the future would be able to crush the big rich man Ning Fengzhi with gold coins?
Fortunately, the gold coin +1 prompt had no sound, only appearing as text in the bottom right corner of his vision, and could also be closed. Otherwise, Ye Chen would have to experience 'the troubles of the rich'.
'Open Attribute Panel.'
Immediately, a golden light screen appeared before Ye Chen's eyes.
[Attribute Panel]
[Host: Ye Chen]
[spirit power: Level 3]
[Spirit: Bamboo Staff]
[spirit ring: None]
"..."
Looking at his simple Attribute Panel, Ye Chen couldn't bear to look directly and immediately closed it.
At this moment, Ye Chen was on his way home, and there were passersby, but it seemed none of them noticed his unusual state.
This reassured Ye Chen; others couldn't discover his cheat son.
Ye Chen had great expectations for the remaining System Shop, but he thought he'd go home first.
If the System Shop had good things, he would definitely jump for joy; if it didn't, he would also jump for joy. Ye Chen didn't want to be stared at like a monkey on the street, so he decided to go home, close the door, and then investigate.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Ye Chen quickly ran home.
...
Upon returning home, Ye Chen immediately locked the door, went back to his room, and silently thought to open the System Shop.
'System Shop.'
Instantly, another golden light screen appeared in Ye Chen's vision.
'This 'son' is really something, why is everything golden? Doesn't he think it's tacky? But I like it!'
Before long, Ye Chen discovered that the System Shop indeed had many good things.

"Hahahahahahahaha~"
Ye Chen, who was inside the house, immediately raised his small head and burst into laughter after clearly seeing the various items sold in the System Shop.
He couldn't help but be happy. Originally, Ye Chen thought that with his innate level 3 spirit power, he would only be able to be a bystander or cling to someone's leg in the future.
But with the Godly rich System, it was different.
So what if his innate spirit power was low? One Immortal Herb would definitely make his cultivation efficiency comparable to someone with full innate spirit power, and with the help of the Immortal Herb's medicinal power, it might even surpass full innate spirit power.
So what if his Spirit's quality was poor? With the Spirit God-level Card, it would transform into a God-level Spirit sooner or later.
So what about God Position inheritance? The System Shop also sold God Positions. Even if he couldn't get a Divinity's inheritance, he could still become a God in the future.
Moreover, with the spirit ring and Spirit Bone upgrade cards, not having twin spirits was fine. As long as he added points to his spirit rings and Spirit Bones, rapidly increasing his spirit power level wouldn't be a dream!
At this moment, Ye Chen was already fantasizing about himself in the future, possessing a God-level Spirit, a nine-red spirit ring configuration, a complete set of 100,000-year Spirit Bones, and ultimately becoming a Divinity.
'No, no, no, 100,000 years is still too low. It has to be a nine-gold spirit ring configuration and a complete set of million-year Spirit Bones!'
Ye Chen felt that since he had a cheat-like son, he couldn't be surpassed by Little San.
And if he could achieve a nine-gold spirit ring configuration and a full set of million-year Spirit Bones, wouldn't his God Position level surpass even a God King?
After all, the God Position, which cost tens of billions of gold coins, had an annotation: the stronger one's own strength and foundation before refining the God Position, the higher the God Position level.
Presumably, even a God King couldn't possess such a powerful foundation, could he?
Even Tang Da Chui, who was known as the 'Cheat King,' only had one million-year spirit ring and Spirit Bone.
In addition, Ye Chen also discovered that the System Shop also sold many miscellaneous items, such as storage spirit tools, some individual thermal weapons from his previous life, and various industrial technology products.
However, the prices of these items were not expensive; for him, a future Godly rich person, they were just a drop in the bucket.
"It's a pity that the quality of these thermal weapons isn't high, and there are no mushroom bombs."
Ye Chen secretly lamented. Otherwise, if he set off a big firecracker in Spirit City, Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong would probably ascend to heaven, wouldn't they?
However, after thinking about how expensive all the good things in the System Shop were, Ye Chen felt that although he would be a Godly rich person in the future, he couldn't change the fact that he was a poor person in the short term.
Looking at the 10% off card in the System Shop, which could be claimed for free as a beginner's welfare, Ye Chen began to ponder.
After thinking about it, Ye Chen decided not to use it now. After all, to maximize the benefits of this 10% off card, it should definitely be used to buy expensive items, such as a God Position that costs tens of billions.
Currently, the most useful things for Ye Chen were cultivation techniques and Immortal Herbs.
However, there was a clear annotation after Immortal Herb: the medicinal power of the Immortal Herb is vast, and Spirit Scholars cannot consume it. Ye Chen could only list Immortal Herb as a necessary item after he advanced to a one-ring Spirit Master.
So, what he urgently needed now was the cultivation technique gift package worth ten million gold coins.
But ten million gold coins was not a small amount; it would require nearly four months of filial piety from his 'cheat-like biological son.'
That's right, given how powerful he was, the previous 'cheat-like son' had already been upgraded to a 'biological son.'
"Alas~, it seems that in the short term, nothing can be changed!"
Sighing deeply, Ye Chen looked at the nearly one thousand gold coins accumulated in the System Shop's balance. He immediately withdrew one and examined it in his hand.
"Hmm, it's the same as the gold coins commonly used on the continent."
Carefully distinguishing them, Ye Chen found that the gold coins his biological son provided, apart from being brand new, were no different from ordinary gold coins.
And after Ye Chen's experiment, external gold coins could also be stored in the System Shop's balance, indicating that the two were interchangeable.
Now that he had a cheat-like biological son, Ye Chen's general plan for the future had to be changed.
The first thing he thought of was going to Notting College and coaxing Xiao Wu, that silly and cute little rabbit, into his own bowl.
Don't misunderstand, Ye Chen wasn't coveting Xiao Wu's spirit rings and Spirit Bones; he didn't care about those. He coveted Xiao Wu herself.
However, there was a prerequisite: he had to drive Tang Da Chui away.
With Tang Da Chui's strength as a Titled Douluo, he would definitely discover Xiao Wu's identity as a 100,000-year Spirit Beast in human form the first time he saw her.
As for why he didn't say anything, Ye Chen guessed that Tang Da Chui was most likely planning for his son, Little San, to follow in his footsteps, with the idea of 'sacrificing his wife for boundless spirit power.'
It wouldn't be difficult to drive Tang Da Chui out of Nuoding City's territory.
Just write him a letter, tell him that Spirit Hall already knows he's blacksmithing in Saint Spirit Village, and that Qian Daoliu is already on his way. Tang Da Chui would definitely run away with his son immediately.
Alternatively, he could directly report to Spirit Hall that Tang Da Chui was in Saint Spirit Village.
Of course, Ye Chen would have to do this anonymously; he couldn't deliver it himself, otherwise, it would be unexplainable, and if Tang Da Chui came looking for revenge, he wouldn't be able to stop him.
Let alone Tang Da Chui, even Little San, without external help, Ye Chen would only be instantly killed.
Clearly, if Ye Chen really did this, in Little San's eyes, it would be a sure path to death.
...
Three days passed in a flash.
In these three days, Ye Chen had also gone out and inquired clearly: Notting College's annual enrollment period was in four months.
This meant that Little San had not yet awakened his Spirit, and Ye Chen needed to drive Tang Da Chui away within these four months.
If he waited until Tang Da Chui discovered Xiao Wu's identity as a 100,000-year Spirit Beast in human form, he would definitely take that silly and cute little rabbit with him.
Regarding how to anonymously inform Tang Da Chui and Spirit Hall, Ye Chen also had a plan, and it would be implemented soon.
However, in terms of cultivation, he was indeed an innate level 3 spirit power user; his efficiency was not great. Three days of cultivation yielded no feeling at all.
Ye Chen estimated that, without any accidents, if he cultivated for a year and could raise his spirit power by one level, it would be a blessing from the heavens. Compared to other geniuses, he was completely incomparable.
And this would still require Ye Chen to cultivate diligently. If he slacked off, it would definitely be even slower.
Spirit Masters, when their spirit power level is not high and their mental force is not strong enough, cannot be in a state of cultivation all day long.
Meditation also requires the consumption of mental force. If one cultivates excessively, it might lead to mental force damage.
So Ye Chen only cultivated in the morning and evening each day, allowing his consumed mental force to recover.
