Quests

The quest function is designed to push you to your limits and help you get stronger at the fastest rate without impacting your foundation and limiting your future. This feature will be aiming for personal growth and develop your Dao heart, finding your true desire where that is to be a tyrannical emperor, a saviour of the weak, to be free and unfettered with just your family with you. The choice is yours host, and your choices will determine the quests you receive.

While this system is design for your benefits, certain quests you will be unable to reject, and you will be unable to pay ignore the punishment upon failing.

Shop(to be unlocked)

While the shop function is closed, upon a significant achievement or personal growth from the host, the shop function will be unlocked.

More features will be added in the future, and obviously if host has a feature he wanted to add, so long as it will benefit the hosts growth the system will add it. However, features such as instant mastery or daily sign in rewards will not be added as this does not benefit the hosts Dao heart and will make any effort from the host minimal as he will just rely on the system rewards for everything.

" That it, what the fuck, my amazing system basically does nothing other than tell my current level which I will already know. This is ridiculous, I demand a refund."

' Host am I to take this response as you want to die and go on to the afterlife, because I can inform GOD of your decision :)'

" Wait wait, okay you win, I will make do with what I have.'

After that thought Alex drifted off to sleep, after all his is currently a baby and gets tired very easily.

He was awoken from his sleep by his parents talking over him,

" Let his name come into the world alongside him." Yichuan said. "How could I not be careful about it? I hadn't made up my mind in the past, but just now, I suddenly thought of a name…let's call our son 'Ning', meaning 'calm'. No matter whether his life is normal or exciting, no matter if he is weak or becomes an expert, let him maintain a calm, peaceful heart."

"Ning?" Snow murmured. "Ji Ning. Ji Ning…"

My younger brother had been named, now it was my turn.

" I have thought of a name for our eldest twin too, let's call him ' Yichen' meaning 'Sun, moon, and stars ' maybe he stay as calm and peaceful as the moon, and as ferocious as the sun when he needs to protect his younger brother."

'Congratulations host, you a name in this life now.'

" Thank you, system. "

.....

The most powerful member of the West Prefecture of the Ji clan was the Raindrop Sword, Ji Yichuan.

The second was the 'Tiger Demon', Ji Lee.

Within Lee's Prefecture.

"Congratulations and felicitations, father." A middle-aged man with several dozen braids in his hair said. "That Yichuan was so arrogant and blind that he actually said he would have one of his sons go seize the golden sword…the West Prefecture has been in the hands of our Ji clan for generations. Not a single person has taken the Prefecture Lord position through seizing the golden sword."

The old man with flaming red hair and that scarlet snake in his ears slapped his hands together. "When I was young, I should've become the Prefecture Lord! But at that time, I was simply too much of a show-off and ended up losing to my big brother, Ji Young. That old bastard Young ended up taking the Prefecture Lord position and has been in that position for eighty years!"

"Eighty full years!"

"I've been waiting all this time. Every day has been a crucible." Lee ground his teeth. "I didn't expect that his line of descent would produce someone like Yichuan! He truly is a glorious, outstanding talent. Fortunately, fortunately, Yichuan is only interested in training to become an Immortal and doesn't care about becoming the Prefecture Lord. Yichuan was simply too arrogant today. He actually chose such a path for his sons."

"It seems it is the will of Heaven that we take the Prefecture Lord's position." The middle-aged man said excitedly.

"Don't be hasty."

Lee shouted. "When I was young, that loss I suffered taught me…that a person can't be too happy before one has actually succeeded! What we need to do is prepare!"

"Father, do you mean to say…" The man asked.

Lee was frowning in concentration.

Time slowly passed. The middle-aged man sat off to one side, not daring to disturb him. He knew his father was thinking.

"Right!" Ji Lee suddenly said in a soft voice. "That's what we'll do!"

The middle-aged man looked at his father. "Father, what is your plan?"

"In order to seize the golden sword, one must defeat all of the youths of the tribes and the descendants of the Ji clan." Lee said in a low voice. "Although there are few clan members, they can acquire a large number of treasures and secret manuals, while although there are many youths in the tribes, very few will get any treasures. But despite that, in the quadrennial Golden Sword Ceremony, out of every five or six ceremonies, only once will a Ji clan member win."

The middle-aged man nodded. "There are simply too many tribe members. There will always be an extremely talented person who emerges. However, no matter how great their talent, we won't teach them the truly powerful arts of the Ji clan. We'll only teach them some of the lesser arts. Although those youths of the tribes might be powerful during the Golden Sword Ceremony, after seventy or eighty years, the most powerful exponents are those of the Ji clan."

"What I mean to do is…" Ji Lee said in a whisper. "Select a few outstanding youths from the tribes and give them a large number of treasures and resources and train them. Without my training, those tribal youth talents are already so powerful. Once they receive my training, they will definitely skyrocket in power and become even mightier! I refuse to believe that one of the sons of Yichuan will be able to defeat all of them and seize the golden sword."

"Right. Right." The middle-aged man hurriedly nodded.

Usually, the treatment of the tribal youths and of the Ji clan members were totally different.

The Ji clan youths were of one family. Naturally, the Ji clan would treat them much better. But in dealing with the youths of the tribes, they would have to both draw them close and also control them well! But this time…he would use all of his talent to cultivate the most promising youths!

"Father, if you do this, then Ji Yichuan's son will definitely lose." The middle-aged man said confidently.

"Hahaha…" Lee laughed. "Remember. Plant some of our people by Yichuan's side. I want to know how rapidly Yichuan's son grows in power. Only knowing one's own power and one's opponent's power will one gain victory!"

"Yes!" The middle-aged man's eyes were shining.

.....

" Goodnight, my two beautiful boys, sleep tight. " Snow said as she gently kissed the boy's forehand and got into the parents bed.

"System, Ji Ning is cultivating his visualisation technique right now, but I don't have anything to do."

' System recommends Host opens the beginners pack for the Desolate Era novel'

" Why didn't you tell me before? "

' System waited for the appropriate time'

"Fair enough, system open the beginners pack"

' System pack contains one visualisation technique, and one technique optimisation card. For the visualisation technique host has a choice between three techniques:

Ji Ning's Nuwa visualisation technique.

Pangu Cleaving Chaos to form the Primordial World, similar level to Nuwa's painting however does not have the purifying effects but gives a slight intimidation to opponents of a similar soul level.

Yin Yang diagram spinning fusing slighting forming chaos in the centre, strengths the soul at a fast rate than Nuwa and gives the soul a property of chaos making your soul harder to trace or detect. However, similar to the one above there is no purifying effect.

The choice is yours Ji Yichen. '
