Zeng Wei fell through the clouds like a man without hope. Below him was a tundra of sand and the seagulls were squawking as they dodged his falling body.
A few minutes ago, he was in class enjoying his afternoon nap while the rest of the kids worked on their midterm examinations.
His teacher had always cursed him, and finally after chanting his name a million times in her head he disappeared. He was now heading towards the crescent sands of Zambardia, and he flailed his arms hoping he'd be able to stay afloat in the black sky.
The teacher's prayer was answered by an immortal goddess. So, rather than Zen Wei continuing his daily shenanigans, he was now about to die.
If he had a chance to stop this, he would. However, then his body smashed into the ground and poor Zeng Wei's body burst.
His ligaments blew up into the air, and his skeleton was smashed leaving only his soul.
It was quite unfortunate that this happened to him. He really didn't deserve to die just because of his odd personality. So, what if he always outsmarted the teacher, and caused a ruckus in the lunchroom? Was it really his fault that he liked to have fun, feel alive, and occasionally play pranks?
Nonetheless, his handsome face was now just a sort of play dough, and the sweet goddess who killed him appeared.
She was very pretty and heavenly. Her powers were not bound by the universe, and Zang Wei was someone she needed to deal with. Once anyone wished for something a million times, she'd almost always answer. He just happened to get on his teacher's bad side to the point of excess. Practically all her time was spent cursing Zang Wei, while Zeng Wei spent all his time not thinking about anything.
He was one of those type of boys that really deserved to die! However, now that he was dead, she put her hands against her staff, and looked at his small nearly useless soul. She felt bad wasting it, and clicked her staff on the ground.
A second later, Zang Wei was reborn in front of her, and she actually felt guilty.
"AHH!" Zang Wei shouted aloud, "What… what just happened!"
He felt the pain from the fall and looked down seeing blood beneath him. His clothes were there, and he was unware of his rather naked examination.
"You died and you're now back." The goddess happened to be a little Lolli, very cute and attractive.
"But… I was in class, and then I died?" Zang Wei was confused about this situation. "Why exactly did I have to die?"
"Someone really wanted you to die, so I killed you. However, I'll grant you one wish to make things right?" The little girl seemed to have no trouble admitting she killed Zang Wei, and he gawked at her feeling proud that he was a lot taller than her.
He could feel this weird mystical feeling from her but couldn't help glance down at her translucent dress and the shadows of red lining underneath it. After gulping, he evaluated this situation, and then planned his words carefully.
"So, you're saying you killed me… L-Like what was I doing, dreaming?"
"Uhm, no… you know what you did to your teacher… Ignored her efforts at helping you, turned down all five of her daughters… caused her husband to leave her, and did I forget to say you ate her apple?"
Zang Wei sighed. "Heh, well… the apple part wasn't my fault…"
The little goddess sighed before she anxiously looked down at her arm. "Ugh, I don't really want to explain too much to you right now… Come on, tell me what you want before I drop you again…"
"…. Are you saying I can wish for anything?" Zang Wei was curious and looked down at her one more time. It was really hard not to look at her, and she was proud of her perfect body.
"Heh… well, I can tell what you want. However, I wouldn't waste this wish, Zang Wei." She blushed before he shook off that one really foolish idea. He always wanted to be a cultivator, and he also always wanted to have some sort of an ability. Also, seeing how this lady was rushing him he asked for what came to mind quickly.
"I want to be able to be an immortal like you, and I also want to be able to tame everything! Whether it's a man, woman, or even a cloud! I want to be able to be like you someday… please?"
The little Lolli was impressed with his wish and smiled before she pointed her staff at him. "Hmmm, I don't know. I'll give you what you want, but you'll have to have some limitations. For instance, you won't be able to catch anything past your rank, and they'll have to submit to you… It would be bad if every woman you saw just dropped to her knees and succumbed to your desires…"
Zang Wei started drooling as she talked but nodded his head. "Uhm, of course! I promise I'll only use it for good not evil! I'll also leave teachers in this world alone and stop eating apples."
The little girl seemed to have a change of heart about Zang Wei. She never actually wanted to kill him, but she was not sure if it was a good idea to give him the system. Nor if he'd really leave teachers alone.
"Fine, but in order for something to submit to you… It has to be with good intent! You can't just beat everything up with the godly spiritual roots I put in your body. Also, I'm going to give you something called a soul capture space in your spiritual roots. It will have a limitation on two captures per stage…"
Zang Wei was somewhat confused. "What's a soul capture space?"
He had a ton of questions for her, and she had very little time left.
"It lets you capture things, but since you want to capture all things, not just demon beasts, you'll need a system."
The little Lolli was a lady of her word, and soon Zang Wei would acquire his system. They spent a few minutes more talking even though the goddess was running late for another appointment. The conversations were mostly about his desires, and a few other common things. It was at this moment that he realized he was naked, and not only was he naked, but he was different than he remembered.
"Well, if you have any more questions, please ask the endless capture system… It should be operational now, but before you can talk to it why don't you tell me where you want to go?"
Zang Wei didn't really know where he was so he couldn't answer her. He knew nothing about this world except he died here once, and the little goddess was getting too impatient to tell him more.
"Uhm, I always wanted to join a sect? By any chance, would you know anywhere I could join?"
The goddess seemed to have an idea and then she hovered off the ground before she smiled while looking down at Zang Wei. She was feeling mischievous after giving him everything he wanted, and she already granted his one wish.
She also figured it would be better if he suffered first, so she shook her head.
"I think you're best bet is to head towards the sun. If you can survive, in a few days you should come across a sect!"
"No… you can't do this to me! Please!" Zang Wei dropped to his knees before the goddess turned around and sighed.
"Uhm, give me a moment to think about it… Hmmm, nope, see you later!"
She disappeared leaving Zang Wei in the tundra, unclothed, and with nothing to keep him company but the wind and the growls coming from his surroundings.
"Where exactly am I?" Zang Wei screamed as he dropped down into the dune of sand blowing over his old body's remains.
"Ding! Endless Capture System calibrating…. Give it one moment!"
