Ding! The Attribute Upgrade System greets its host!
Dương Thần, who was sleeping, suddenly heard a sound in his head that woke him up. Looking around at the unfamiliar surroundings, he felt utterly bewildered.
“Where am I?”
Dương Thần asked, puzzled.
Ding! Host is currently in the Tianwu Continent.
The mysterious voice suddenly rang out in Dương Thần’s head.
“Who’s there?”
Dương Thần looked around, seeing no one speaking. Could it be a ghost?
Ding! The Attribute Upgrade System greets its host!
“A System?”
Dương Thần was startled. As far as he knew, anyone with a system was incredibly formidable.
Ding! Precisely. The host is currently in the Tianwu Continent.
“Tianwu Continent? Where is that?”
The Tianwu Continent is a parallel world to Earth. The host, having died, had his soul transmigrate here and merge with the body of a 15-year-old youth also named Dương Thần.
Hearing this, Dương Thần felt a little lost. He had only been sleeping, and to wake up and be told he was dead – no one could handle that, let alone him.
Ding! Regarding matters related to the Tianwu Continent and the host’s current body, the system hopes the host will continue to explore them. The system has a newbie gift package; would the host like to use it?
“Use it.”
Dương Thần took a moment to adapt, then quickly regained his composure. What was there to worry about? As long as he became strong, he was sure to find a way back.
He immediately said:
“Use it.”
Ding! Usage successful. Congratulations, host, you have received:
Open Information Panel
Body Reconstruction (bloodline, talent, attributes...)
Shop function unlocked, Inventory unlocked, Trade function unlocked, Shopping Points activated.
Unique Divine Weapon (Only one exists): Katana (unequipped).
As soon as the words fell, a 3D screen appeared before Dương Thần, listing the items.
Dương Thần looked at the screen and, seeing the inventory slot, immediately reached out and tapped it to use the items the system had gifted.
Ding! Host confirms usage?
Ding! The host will experience pain for 30 minutes due to body reconstruction and the integration of the old body’s memories. Please endure it.
As soon as the notification ended, Dương Thần immediately felt a terrifying pain engulf him, causing him to faint instantly. Whether in his previous life or this one, Dương Thần had never been over 20 years old, so he had never experienced such intense pain, thus he fainted immediately.
oOo
30 minutes later.
Dương Thần opened his eyes. He now understood everything related to himself, the world he was living in, and his new powers. Mentally calling out ‘Information Panel,’ a 3D screen immediately appeared, displaying Dương Thần’s current stats:
– Name: Dương Thần.
– Age: 15.
– Level: 0 (0/30).
– Bloodline: Pangu (the god who created all worlds).
– Attributes: Chaos (all attributes).
– Body: SSS.
– Talent: Max.
– Weapon: Katana (Divine Weapon).
– Skills: Locked (Attributes awaken at age 16, only then can skills be learned).
– Items: 0.
– Shopping Points: 0.
– Overall Combat Power: 10000.
Dương Thần looked at his information panel with immense satisfaction. The system had buffed him quite heavily, so he wouldn’t have to struggle as much as characters in other stories.
Closing the information panel, Dương Thần absorbed the knowledge of the new world.
The Thiên Vũ Continent was immensely vast; Yang Chen estimated it was at least a hundred times larger than Earth. The continent was divided into many regions, but all were dominated by four great nations: the Azure Dragon Empire, the Vermillion Bird Empire, the White Tiger Empire, and the Black Tortoise Empire. These four empires divided and ruled the entire Thiên Vũ Continent, each governing one of the four cardinal directions—East, West, South, and North. The center of the continent was called the Central Plains. Academies proliferated throughout these empires. Great clans, people of status, and powerful individuals were everywhere. In short, this was a place where strength was revered, where the strong thrived and the weak perished. It didn't matter who you were; if you lacked strength, you would be trampled upon by everyone.
Yang Chen's clan was one of the top ten great clans in the Azure Dragon Empire. As for Yang Chen himself, he was born the son of an Elder in the clan, and thus was extremely favored. From a young age, he displayed astonishing talent and was considered a promising prospect within the clan, but he attracted too much attention. Until yesterday, Yang Chen was secretly assassinated, but fortunately, he didn't die. Upon returning to the clan, he tried every possible treatment, but to no avail; he became a cripple. The clan immediately expelled him. Even his own father abandoned him, only giving him some money and a house to live out the rest of his days. Unable to bear the humiliation, he chose to commit suicide.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. It was the same everywhere: if you lacked strength, you would be trampled upon by others. To live a better life, one could only rise up by themselves.
“Since you’ve given me this body, I will help you strive. There will come a day when I trample everyone underfoot. Those who scorned you will regret it.”
Yang Chen thought to himself. Suddenly, his body felt incredibly comfortable. Perhaps the soul of this body, upon hearing Yang Chen’s words, finally felt at ease entrusting its body to him.
“Hah, I didn’t expect your fate to be so bitter!”
Yang Chen looked up at the sky, sighing inwardly. Determination gleamed in his eyes. After a long moment, regaining his composure, he stood up and shouted:
“I AM HERE! I WILL CONQUER THIS WORLD! HAHAHA…”
