The [Cyclone Typhoon Saintly Sect] is one of the most respected sects in the entire realm.
They are the closest in ranking to the [Etheral] sect.
When they first heard about the trip of the grand grand grand daughter of their rival sect leader, everyone refused to take on this mission.
However, because their sect leader is a close friend of the [Etheral Sect] leader, some members will have to accept it.
Luckily, they managed to force three inner disciples to accept this mission.
Of course, to give face, an elder had to go.
No one wanted to go, so they settled on a lottery.
The chosen elder couldn't help but let out a sigh.
As the elder ranked second in the entire sect, to think he would do such a task.
'How did the situation become so bad?'
It was just around five minutes ago that he was about to depart to this own territory.
At that moment, one of the previous tour givers approached the little child and suddenly disappeared with her.
The elder almost thought he was dreaming.
He wanted to say, "Come on, who would expect a little qi-cultivator to have a teleportation artifact and kidnap the little lady?".
But inevitably, his planned vacation would have to be postponed.
The elder waited so long to have a trip to one of the most amazing places in the lower realm, [Paradise Six].
It took him more than ten years of planning and saving spirit stones to get enough to go there.
'Well, I guess I can wait a few more days.'
Meanwhile, on another continent entirely, inside a forest.
Zed punched a tree in anger.
The tree got instantly destroyed.
He was just about to injure the child when suddenly he was teleported with her to this unknown location.
'My plan... it would have worked, surely.' Zed let out a sigh.

How many minutes have passed since he got this system?
It couldn't have been more than five minutes.
Zed was at least relieved that the [Automatic Emergency Teleportation] disappeared.
But, he is now in trouble.
Luckily, Zed used [Observe] on the child's necklace just in case it was dangerous.
Name:[Heirloom Necklace]
Rarity: [Rare+]
Effect:
1. The sect leader can instantly know the location of this necklace when needed.
2. [???](Insufficient Skill Level)
Zed decided to wait for them for a few minutes.
He could only speculate on how much distance can they travel in a few minutes,
so in the meanwhile, he will think about what to do with the child in front of him.
Feeling curious, Zed used the system-given skill on the little girl.
Suddenly, his eyes widened.
Name: Leila

Zed could not help but doubt his existence.
What is going on in front of him? Magic, Physical and Cultivation Realms, what the hell is he reading?
Zed looked at the child with confusion, and the girl looked calmly at him.
Zed looked at her for a few moments.
After thinking for a few breaths, he made a decision.
Suddenly, Zed disappeared.
At the next moment, he appeared right in front of the child.
His sword is already above the child's head.
The sword was creating a whistling sound.
Clearly, at the next moment, it will reach her head.
Just when it was about to reach her, the sword suddenly stopped.
Zed was unable to move his sword further.
It felt just like hitting a brick wall.
On his face, there was a calm look, and it seemed that he was not surprised.
However, on the inside Zed got excited. Everything made sense now.
The danger the system detected is not what will happen if this "Leila" is injured, but the counter-attack from this girl.
'This must be some ten billion years old monster or something.' Zed couldn't help but estimate her strength to be more and more ridiculous.
At the very least, Zed was starting to believe that the system was not cheating.
Leila looked at Zed with a calm look and suddenly opened her mouth.
"I didn't expect this... You almost blew my cover, and here I was about to let you go."
Zed looked at Leila with a somewhat calm face, but inside he was deeply curious about what she was about to do.
The girl slowly lifted her hand.
Suddenly, Zed felt that the world around him was turning dark.
All around him, it seemed as if the whole world was disappearing.
First, it was the trees, then the grass on the ground, then finally, even the rocks.
Slowly, darkness filled his eyes.
The world became more and more blurry.
Zed felt like he was staring at nothingness for the longest time.
Suddenly, the world began to unblur.
The world around Zed slowly came back to life.
Looking closely, it was not the same place as before.
Zed was quiet for a few moments, admiring in his mind what he observed.
After finally calming down, Zed realized something.
What he saw next almost made him laugh out loud.
In front of him, the screen revealed good news.
Physique:
[Mutated][Nirvana] [1st Turn] [1/12]
Description: One of the [Twelve Heavenly Physiques], Ranked third with a mutation that allows you to upgrade this physique infinitely.
Effect:
Every month, you gain three extra lives [Non-Stackable]
[2/3]
With each death, you gain a 100% increase in physical strength for the entire duration of the month.
The revival location will be at a distance far away from your initial coordinates.
The more you died in this month, the greater the distance.
Each death will grant you an experience point towards upgrading your physique.
Zed almost didn't jump in excitement when the girl appeared in front of him again a few moments later.
Of course, he remembered the lessons his ancestors taught him.
Zed's face clearly shows a scared expression.
'I rate this expression 7/10. ' Zed was confident in his acting.
Leila once again lifted her hand.
In an instant, the world in front of Zed blurred again.
This time, he appeared outside the forest.
It took half an hour, but they met again.
"You... how is it possible for someone from the lower realm to possess this physique?"
The girl looked with confusion at Zed.
At first, she assumed he possessed some life-saving treasure.
As one of the most talented humans in more than ten millenniums, Leila was very familiar with every aspect of cultivation.
But she finally noticed something.
Her expression turned into a frown.
'This man, he is getting stronger.'
The twelve heavenly physiques are all extremely rare.
In particular, only two humans can have one at a time.
But that is not why she is so surprised.
These physiques are heaven-defying, and heavenly tribulation is pretty much required to go through every year.
To cultivate such a body, one needs countless rare resources.
These rare resources are practically non-existent in the lower realm.
Therefore, even surviving until adulthood is impressive in the lower realm.
That is why to see a qi-cultivator who is also an adult in the lower realm with this physique is extremely rare.
But that is not all.
For some reason, the man in front of her was calm.
What was even more perplexing, he was acting scared!
As an old cultivator that has experienced more than ten millenniums of hardships, Leila is an expert in detecting plots.
'This guy, he is planning something!'
Unfortunately, Zed had too much confidence in his acting, but he didn't realize it.
If Zed knew what Leila was thinking, he would surely cough out blood from embarrassment.
While Leila was considering the situation, Zed was already deep in thought.
In front of him, there were a few screens.
In his mind, countless calculations.
Countless scenarios came up, and Zed was busy calculating how to cause his death in every one of them!
Zed confirmed it in his mind that unless the system had additional functionality, he won.
Meanwhile, the system crackled with electricity and began making its own deep calculations.
The system was surprised at Zed's luck.
During the lifespan of the package, the system faced around ten million humans.
Out of them, precisely 153732 managed to get into such a position.
If the system bothered to consider that it only took Zed around five minutes to get there, it might shrink into less than ten thousand.
However, it was not the first time this result happened.
Furthermore, the host is just a newbie who does not know what the system is capable of yet.
Therefore, the system was crackling with confidence.
In front of the system, more than ten measures that could save Zed came forth.
One must still remember that there has to be some balance.
If the system does too much, it might get detected by the heavenly will.
After considering it for a few nanoseconds, two options remained.
'I choose you!' The system declared in its mind with arrogance.
