Dual Cultivation: I Summon Villainesses of Mythic Era-Chapter 28: The truth about Ling’er
In the ruthless world of cultivation, talent is not simply an asset, it is the very foundation on which all existence rests. For the majority of mortals, progression is dictated by the number of spiritual roots present in their Dantian, graded from one to nine, determining the speed at which they can absorb environmental Qi.
However, for those who aspire to reach the absolute summit and transcend the limits of mortality, raw talent is no longer enough.
There exist far more powerful factors that can propel a cultivator beyond the heavens: Thrones, immortal relics offering total mastery over an element, or even Crowns, obtained by surviving the judgments of the Heavenly Dao.
One of the more well-known examples is Xuan Feng with the crown of wisdom and LingBao possessing the throne of a thousand swords... Two figures close to BaiShe.
Even more crucial remains the Physique or Lineage, innate predispositions classified: bronze, silver, golden, divine, immortal and primordial. They shape a being’s affinity with the laws of the universe and its ability to learn divine arts in record time.
*Xuan Heir Residence*
Xuan BaiShe was sitting alone in his vast richly decorated living room. He held a porcelain cup, savoring a tea whose fragrant steam rose in regular spirals.
He appeared totally relaxed, although he had caused a notable commotion in the cultivation world. His appearance was that of a refined young scholar, his long silver hair falling elegantly over his shoulders.
’Well, I must say that Xia Fei’s body was divine... I salute your dedication, Lin Feng. Without your sacrifice, she would not be so easy to tame...’
This thought brought a thin smile to his lips. He was thinking back to the way he had manipulated Lin Feng, and consoled his master with dignity.
For BaiShe, feelings were only tools of manipulation; because of the omega Heart, he was incapable of feeling love or remorse, acting with coldness.
"Status!"
A translucent interface materialized in front of his eyes.
[Name: Xuan BaiShe / ?
Age: 20 years / ??
Title: Heir of the Immortal Xuan Family, Saint Son of Pride, Reincarnation of the Immortal Sage, (Reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon.)
Cultivation: Law Master Peak level / Path of the Sword
Physique: Immortal Sage Lineage / (Golden Dragon), (Primordial Devourer Constitution), (Omega Heart)
Law: Logic, (Devouring: the only Law that can absorb others)
Artifacts: Draconic Bone Sword, Monocle of the Sage
Skills: Arts: Illusory Swords, Art: Frost Yin Qi, / (Primordial Arts of Devouring)
Luck: (Cursed by the Dao: The world wants his death, and the children of destiny are fated to confront him whether they want to or not)]
’ Now Law Master, I should be able to practice the family art: The third Eye.’
BaiShe adjusted his monocle while scanning the information.
As a Law Master Peak, he had reached an intuitive understanding of the laws of the world, but his true power lay in the secrets hidden between the parentheses of his system.
"With the Immortal Sage lineage, it gives me deduction ability, intelligence and strategy beyond the norm, as well as natural wisdom and expertise in the art of calligraphy, singing... everything related to art. I suppose obtaining the law of logic as in my previous life was to be expected. Too bad I did not inherit a lineage from my mother..."
He sighed slightly while thinking of his mother, the Matriarch of the Pride clan, whose shadow dragon physique was of terrifying power. His own Immortal Sage Lineage from his father made him a scholar, making him very refined and charismatic. It was undoubtedly what reinforced his narcissistic side.
"Hmm~ The Golden Dragon lineage? It is quite shabby, as a Constitution."
BaiShe stared at this line of his status with contempt.
Having already two constitutions of Immortal rank and even one of Primordial rank, the addition of the Golden Dragon Lineage stolen from Lin Feng seemed almost an insult to his perfection. Although it was classified at "Golden" rank, it only provided a simple boost of raw power without offering special Qi or unique abilities, unlike his Omega Heart which assured him an inexhaustible source of Khao.
"If only I had my Demonic Gourd of Desolation? I could simply refine it and give it to someone else."
His thoughts wandered toward the treasures he possessed in his past life as the Heavenly Demon. In addition to the Demonic Gourd of Desolation, he once wielded the Spear of the Eight Calamities and wore the Chaotic Crown of Tyranny. These three objects were instruments of massive destruction, capable of rivaling the Fourteen Relics of the Origin Era.
" For now, I should content myself with my Draconic Bone Sword, the artifact my mother gave me."
He stood up slowly, hands behind his back, observing the summits through the window.
’ My current cultivation level was satisfactory for my age, but I must progress quickly to face future threats.’
In reality it was much more than satisfactory, an average twenty-year-old from the Upper Realms was only at the Spiritual Core stage, and the most talented at Nascent Soul. Being at the peak of Law Master would require being nearly fifty years old for the most talented....
[Luck Points: 3600]
"No matter, everything will happen in time, now let’s see what you are hiding my beloved Ling’er..."
With a simple mental gesture, he spent 1000 points.
[Ding ! Luck Points spent]
[Luck Points spent: 1000
Target of S rank: Xuan Ling]
[Generating information report...100%]
[ Xuan Ling
Target Level : S Rank
Status : Time regression detected 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Xuan Ling was violently killed by the master, and has returned to the past with her memories. She loved you very much and trusted you but with her memories, she is extremely wary and confused. She prefers to keep her distance.
Additional info : Illegitimate daughter of the Jade Emperor, Sovereign of the Northern Jade Empire. She was adopted by Xuan Feng due to a debt owed to the Jade Emperor... The Qilin Blood flows in her veins.
Luck Point : 25 000]
"That’s why she was so wary... she knows my true identity."
In his memories of his past life, he had used her mercilessly before tearing out her heart to set a trap for the Immortals. Now that she had regressed, she saw clearly through his game.
" Should I kill her? "
" No... If she has not tried to reveal my identity but rather to keep her distance... I must test her before making a decision. "
" She is undoubtedly still attached to me, she has just become more tsundere. On the contrary, I think it will be easier to manipulate her when she thinks she is the one controlling everything because of her knowledge of the future."
A slight smile spread across his face.
"But she never awakened the Qilin lineage in her previous life. Maybe she herself does not even know her true origin... Well well..."
BaiShe was thinking of some plan while pouring more tea into his cup.
"Well now what if we use this gacha system"
