Chapter 2: The Emperor's Appearance - Ling Qingxue! Nine-Day Sacred Body Dao Embryo!
"The bearing of an emperor?!"
This incredible talent gave Shen Yun goosebumps all over!
Of the three, he had only heard of Zhang Taisui's great name, the holy son of the Eastern Region Holy Land of Xuantian Continent.
However, the other party's deeds were all mediocre and unremarkable. I never expected that this sixth brother would hide such a powerful talent!
As for the other two, he had no impression of them. They were probably either not yet famous or had already fallen from grace.
Without hesitation, Shen Yun raised his hand and pointed:
7.4 [Selected Character: Ling Qingxue, the Empress!]
[Congratulations to the player for selecting the character: Ling Qingxue, the Empress!]
After the phone projector gave Ling Qingxue a close-up, the scene appeared in a mountain range.
As the camera pans through a cave hidden by weeds, a woman, her clothes stained with blood, slumps against a wall, her face pale.
There was a huge wound on his waist. Although it was covered by medicinal powder, the blood had already washed away the powder and was bleeding profusely.
Ling Qingxue was severely injured and fainted after about 20 minutes. She will be taken away by the enemy.
[Note: The current character has taken hemostatic powder, but encountered an unscrupulous vendor who adulterated the powder and made it slow to take effect.]
"Damn it! The hemostatic powder hasn't even taken effect yet! Could it be that I bought a fake?" Ling Qingxue, covered in cold sweat, was so angry that her chest heaved violently.
Humiliation, anxiety, and resentment gradually surfaced on her face, but this state only exacerbated her injuries, and her mind began to spin.
"Why am I so unlucky... I refuse to accept this!!" Ling Qingxue tightly closed her chapped lips, gritted her teeth, and forced herself to get up, clutching the wound on her abdomen, wanting to leave this place as quickly as possible.
She had to rely on herself the whole way; that was her fate!
But she was already at her limit, and with only a sliver of courage, how far could she go? After only a few steps, her legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground.
'I can definitely get out of here!!' Ling Qingxue's five fingers were already deeply embedded in the soil, but the excruciating pain in her abdomen, the dizziness in her brain, and the weakness in her body made it difficult for her to get up.
Gradually, she trembled and collapsed to the ground, barely able to keep herself upright.
"Damn it! Why?!" Her fists were clenched, her face full of resentment, and her bloodshot eyes were already brimming with tears.
This time, even her strong willpower couldn't help her.
Ling Qingxue stubbornly refused to let her tears fall, fearing that the enemy would see her vulnerable side.
She also hoped that a cultivator would pass by and rescue her, but such a thing was too unrealistic and just self-deception.
"You've got a pretty strong personality... You've hit the jackpot today!" Shen Yun quickly clicked on the icon that appeared on the game interface:
7.4 [First Recharge Special Offer!]
[First Recharge Special Offer: Recharge 6 RMB to receive one Grade 5 Healing Pill (original price 3888), which can heal the current character's injuries and restore movement. (Players who recharge in advance can use their existing in-game currency to purchase items.)]
7.4 [Buy Now!]
[Ding! Purchase successful, reward being sent out...]
The first-time purchase icon on the interface transformed into a stream of light and landed in front of Ling Qingxue.
As the light faded, a milky-white pill emitting a faint fragrance appeared before her eyes.
Ling Qingxue was slightly taken aback, her eyes scanning her surroundings warily:
"who!"
Players can choose to reply via system chat:
[Hehehehe, I am your ring grandpa!]
[At the end of the immortal path, who stands at the peak? A single glance at the Beginningless One renders the Dao utterly meaningless! My name is Handsome and Impressive!]
[Don't panic, young friend. Just let me handle your thoughts and don't overthink it!]
"The familiar pathetic reply style..." Shen Yun ignored it all and looked at the pop-up golden recharge notification:
[Limited-time Special Offer - Commoner Version Communication Method: Recharge 3 RMB (original price 50 RMB) to chat with the cloud-raised character Ling Qingxue. (Urgent situation at present, not recommended)]
[Limited-Time Special Offer - Xiaohao Edition: Recharge 50 RMB (original price 248 RMB) to receive five voice messages.]
[Limited-Time Special Offer - Premium Edition: Recharge 648 RMB (original price 5000 RMB) and enjoy permanent chat access with your character—you know what I mean!]
"I'll top up 648! I've had enough of this system's replies!" Shen Yun, sitting on the sofa, quickly clicked the top-up button.
He used to be broke and could only communicate using the system's provided dialogue and character. It was a truly heartbreaking story, best left untold.
[Purchase successful! Players can start voice communication at any time.]
After the notification appeared, the microphone that had been disabled on the game interface was unlocked.
"Ahem!" Shen Yun cleared his throat, pressed the voice button, and whispered:
"I, in my divine journey, have come to this place and have found you to be quite talented. I have no ill intentions."
This telepathic message directly entered Ling Qingxue's mind.
"Thank you, Senior!" She hesitated only slightly before quickly putting the pill into her mouth.
She recognized the five lines on the pill; it was the mark of a grade five pill!
Moreover, she has no way out; even if she gets scammed, she can only accept it.
At this moment, a recharge prompt popped up on Shen Yun's game interface again:
[Special Offer: Purchase Ling Qingxue's personal information for 59 yuan, and it will be permanently saved.]
"With this level of pay-to-win, even the most hardcore gamer would be ruined." Shen Yun chuckled as he bought a copy.
After the recharge channel is closed, the only way for players to obtain coins is through character feedback.
The way characters earn money is not fixed. A character might get a "+0.1 point" above their head while in seclusion, or they might get a few points or cents from battles. The ways to earn money are varied.
Saving up tens or hundreds of yuan is like earning cash by watching short videos—it's possible, but not much.
【Recharge successful! 】
As soon as the notification appeared, a chibi version of Ling Qingxue popped up at the bottom of the game interface.
The figure was made to look very cute, but at this moment she was crying loudly with a bruised and swollen face.
After glancing at Ling Qingxue, who was refining pills, Shen Yun clicked on her personal information:
Name: Ling Qingxue
Age: 20
[Current Realm: First Level of Gathering Cycle]
(The realm divisions of the Xuan Tian Continent are: Spirit Guiding, Gathering Cycle, Condensing Meridians, Vast Ocean, Soul Forging, Mortal Transformation, Dharma Aspect, Heavenly One, Human Emperor, Half-Saint, Saint, Great Saint, Quasi-Emperor, Dao-Proving Emperor!)
[Special Qualification: Nine Heavens Sacred Body Dao Embryo (Not Activated)]
[Personal condition: Qi and blood deficiency.]
[Character Introduction: Abandoned by her parents at a young age, she grew up in Xiaoshi Village and was raised by a villager's grandmother. Later, she was taken in as a menial disciple by a deacon of the Tianhuo Sect. However, her Nine Heavens Sacred Body Dao Embryo possessed eight more Sacred Body Sources than ordinary Sacred Bodies. Despite consuming vast amounts of resources, her cultivation made no progress, and she was sent back down the mountain by the sect…]
"Hiss!! Holy Body Dao Embryo?!" Shen Yun was shocked.
Is this a union of the Holy Body and the Body of the Way?!
He knew about these two constitutions, but had never heard of anyone being able to combine them!
'A combined entity was already abnormal enough! But it also has eight more Sacred Body Sources! You're truly outrageous!' Shen Yun, regaining his senses, was filled with excitement:
"Truly befitting an emperor!!"
The stronger the character, the greater the feedback and benefits he will receive later, so naturally he gets excited!
Composing himself, he continued reading the character profiles:
After being expelled from her sect, Ling Qingxue, while cultivating alone, accidentally ingested a sixth-tier highly poisonous spiritual herb. Surviving, she even experienced a boost in her cultivation. A passing cultivator, Liu Fangya, discovered her secret and took her as a disciple. Liu Fangya then devoted herself to feeding Ling Qingxue the poisonous herbs, enduring daily torment from the poison. However, because her cultivation had indeed improved, Ling Qingxue was deeply grateful to her. But Liu Fangya only intended to refine her into a highly poisonous cauldron to feed her Gu worms.
After discovering Liu Fangya's sinister intentions, Ling Qingxue began her life on the run. Recently, she was discovered by members of Liu Fangya's Iron Wolf Gang and fled to this location.
“He’s a pitiful person too…” Shen Yun shook his head.
Such extraordinary talent was unheard of in his previous life; he must have been envied by the heavens and was likely to perish.
Otherwise, the significance of the four words "Sacred Body Dao Embryo" would be enough to shake the entire Xuan Tian Continent!
