Inside the secret chamber.
Chen Zhixing finally sat cross-legged, looking at the prompts that appeared in his mind.
[Ding! You have slain one of the Celestial Chosen Protagonists and will seize part of their fortune and innate abilities!]
[Ding! Your initial Fortune Value is 150%, increased by 150%! Total Fortune Value 300%!]
[Ding! You have obtained a new title: Great Luck]
[Great Luck: With Great Luck, you will have immense fortune blessed by heaven and earth, becoming immune to curses, calamities, diseases, heavenly secret exploration, and all other negative effects.]
[Ding! You have obtained the Life Book!]
[Ding! You have acquired the Heaven-Swapping Skill!]
"Great Luck?"
Chen Zhixing raised an eyebrow, a trace of color emerging on his face.
Previously, he had other titles, like the initial Celestial Official’s Blessing and Blessed with Good Fortune.
However, those titles seemed to be merely titles without any effect.
But this newly acquired title can exempt him from all negative effects like curses, disasters, and explorations.
"Not bad."
Chen Zhixing nodded slightly, the effect of this title seemed insignificant, but in truth, it was incredibly powerful.
For instance, Chen Zhixing remembered in the "Great Cultivation" that there was a mysterious Great Curse Master.
This person could infer heavenly secrets, deduce the enemy’s identity, and then curse them from a thousand miles away!
But now, with Great Luck, he is immune to all of this.
Then, he felt a vast amount of knowledge about the "Heaven-Swapping Skill" in his mind, as well as a vague connection with the Life Book he had hidden in his sleeve.
"Life Book."
With just a thought, an ancient golden book appeared in Chen Zhixing’s hand.
There was a long slit-like vertical eye drawn on the cover of the ancient book!
Chen Zhixing’s gaze fell on that narrow vertical eye.
In an instant, all of Chen Zhixing’s fates vividly appeared in his mind.
"No wonder Ning Changyu wanted to kill me so urgently, anyone in his position would find it hard to resist, right?"
Chen Zhixing shook his head.
Everyone is mundane; who can remain indifferent in the face of a fate promising longevity?
In the next moment.
Chen Zhixing stored the Life Book in his Dantian Divine Sea, a pensive look on his face.
Speaking of which, Ning Changyu’s rise in his previous life should have started when he obtained the Life Book and then, by coincidence, killed an elder named Fu Xiu in the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands.
That Elder Fu Xiu had a Heaven-Devouring Demon Body Fate.
This fate had a feature, which was it could seize the same fate and then upgrade it!
One must know, fate is determined by the heavens!
Being able to upgrade one’s fate, how terrifying is that?
For instance.
If you have the commoner’s gray-black fate, you only need to use the Life Book to devour and seize the same gray-black commoner’s fate, allowing the fate level to keep rising!
Ning Changyu seized this person’s fate and relied on its characteristics to continuously devour other people’s fates, constantly upgrading, until his talent was unparalleled, leading to his complete rise!
It can be said that Elder Fu Xiu’s Heaven-Devouring Demon Body Fate elevated the power of the Life Book to another level!
Speaking of which, because Elder Fu Xiu did not understand the power of his fate and didn’t possess the Life Book.
He could only secretly absorb others’ Mental Telekinesis to strengthen himself.
This behavior was eventually discovered by the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands, leading to a tragic hunt.
In the end, when he was on the brink of death, Ning Changyu picked up from his downfall, officially starting Ning Changyu’s path to rising!
"If I remember correctly, that Meng Hedong should also soon be heading to Celestial Wave Sacred Lands to fulfill the ten-year agreement with the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands’ Saintess, Li Ran, which was made ten years ago?"
"If there is a chance, I could indeed make a trip to Celestial Wave Sacred Lands."
"Firstly, to find a way to kill that Elder Fu Xiu, making good use of the Life Book’s abilities, upgrading my Blazing Gold Fates all to Emperor Purple Level!"
"Secondly, to make preparations in advance, awaiting Meng Hedong’s arrival."
After some thought, Chen Zhixing kept this matter in mind.
Seeing the sky getting dark, he remembered Chen Daoyan’s instructions and immediately strode out the door.
...
...
A moment later.
Chen Zhixing arrived at the main peak.
From a distance, he saw Chen Daoyan’s figure, standing with hands clasped behind his back, waiting for him.
"Grandfather." Chen Zhixing approached and greeted.
"Finished with your tasks?" Chen Daoyan smiled at Chen Zhixing.
Chen Zhixing nodded.
"Let’s go, grandfather will take you to see something." Chen Daoyan smiled slightly, then stepped forward.
Chen Zhixing quickly followed.
The figures of the two gradually left Ziwei Mountain, disappearing into the boundless night.
...
...
The night was as black as ink.
Chen Daoyan, with his hair white as snow draped over his shoulders, walked ahead with hands behind his back.
Chen Zhixing obediently followed behind.
"Zhixing, let me ask you first, will you take over the Ziwei Chen Family in the future?" Chen Daoyan asked.
"I will." Chen Zhixing nodded.
This question, Chen Daoyan had already asked once before.
At that time, Chen Zhixing didn’t have an answer in his heart.
But after experiencing all these events.
At this moment, Chen Zhixing already had an answer.
After all.
Where in this world can you enjoy the benefits and conveniences brought by a family, without wanting to be burdened by it in return?
Moreover.
Regardless of past or present life.
Apart from Chen Tianxiong’s lineage constantly targeting and suppressing him.
In truth, the entire Chen Family has not treated him poorly.
Otherwise, the Ziwei Chen Family wouldn’t have ended up being exterminated by the Celestial Chosen Protagonist because of him.
