The room of Jun Tianyun appeared to be ordinary. But when he looked at Zi Yanrou, he was surprised.
There was a pitch black halo behind the head of Zi Yanrou. Jun Tianyun could see miasma like substances oozing inside the halo and making a skull-like face.
[Destiny value: 300]
A panel appeared, but there were thick black chains over the panel.
" What's that?" Jun Tianyun asked to Su Qingyao.
" My my, I didn't expect to see such a person here. That black halo represents an extreme level of misfortune."
" Although Wang Ming also got a type of misfortune, It was different."
" His Destiny got tainted by his evil deeds. That's why he can be considered as a villain."
" However, this Zi Yanrou... It looked like she used to have a lot of good luck. However, someone stole all of her fate, making her unfortunate."
" You better stay away from her. Her bad luck is so contagious that you might also face troubles." Su Qingyao warned.
" Damn, Even though I have Eyes of Fortune, There are so many things to learn." Jun Tianyun sighed.
" Don't worry, You will get used to it." Su Qingyao soothed.
" Eh? Brother Jun, why are you staring at me like that?" Zi Yanrou's voice startled Jun Tianyun.
" Ah! Nothing. I was just thinking about some business." Jun Tianyun smiled.
" Since you have taken the shower, How about some coffee?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" Sure." Zi Yanrou nodded.
Jun Tianyun was a bachelor in his two lives. So his kitchen skills have been honed by his loneliness.
Quickly, he made two cups of strong coffee as they chatted for a while.
" So, You came from a village, and now all your money has been spent?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" Yeh, I finished college last year, and now I am trying to find a suitable job." Zi Yanrou spoke.
" I am not suitable for martial arts. That's why I am trying to pursue my career in other fields."
It has been one thousand years since the battle between monsters and humans. Although humans learned to use ancient martial arts, not everyone can become a martial artist.
One needs to have a natural talent to become a martial artist. Other than natural talents, there are also many treasures and medicine which can turn an ordinary person into a martial artist.
However, those external things are highly expensive and strictly controlled by powerful factions.
" I am currently trying to earn some money from my internet novel. But guess, That's too hard." Zi
Yanrou sighed.
" Indeed, It's harder for them to earn these days." Jun Tianyun also sympathized with them.
" Sister Qingyao, I got a question in my mind."
" What if I help her to change her misfortune and regain her fortune? Can I still earn fortune points and destiny points?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" That's possible. But it still has lots of danger. When you start changing someone's predetermined fate, a lot of things will be affected like a butterfly effect."
" Moreover, you will be targeted by the heavenly Dao. As long as you pass all the obstacles, you will be able to earn points." Su Qingyao explained.
Jun Tianyun blinked his eyes as his status window appeared in front of him.
Host: Jun Tianyun
Cultivation: Normal
Power: 50
Energy: 100
Destiny point: 25/100
Fortune point: 290
Techniques: Eyes of Fortune
[Level up?]
A button flashed in front of Jun Tianyun as he clicked on it.
[ Ding! Host leveled up! Host received 110 fortune points! Host received Status Window Skill!]
Jun Tianyun's face fell as he felt nothing useful came again.
" Wait! Status Window skill?" Jun Tianyun got interested.
[ Ding! A person detected! 100 Fortune points to show the status window of that person?]
A panel appeared on Zi Yanrou's head. Jun Tianyun shook his head. " 100 fortune points? That's too much! But this skill is definitely what I like!"
Jun Tianyun smiled as he read the description of the skill.
He can consume fortune points to see someone else's status window, just like a game. Their name and basic information will all appear on the status window.
" I am going to the market to buy some essential things. How about I treat you a lunch? Just take this repaying your favor." Jun Tianyun asked.
" Uhm... I don't think..." Zi Yanrou hesitated.
*Grumble*
But suddenly, her stomach grumbled loudly, making both speechless.
" Ahem, I will be waiting for you in the city market. I shall be going now." Jun Tianyun coughed lightly as he turned to leave.
Jun Tianyun bid farewell to Zi Yanrou as he went to the market.
He constantly used his Eyes of Fortune as he looked around. There, he concluded many things.
" First, It seems my current Eyes of Fortune can cover only 30 meters. Moreover, it doesn't grant me any ability like X-ray or telescopic view."
" However, It gives a general overview of things." Jun Tianyun's eyes flashed as he looked at the colorful world around him.
White color means ordinary while the green color represents something better than average or something safe. For example, those who are rich or handsome. A green halo appeared on them.
" Hmm?" Jun Tianyun saw a blue aura as he was startled. It was a young man with a buffed body who was walking casually.
[ Open the status window for 20 fortune points?]
" Such low fortune point? Yes!" Jun Tianyun clicked as the information appeared in front of him.
Name: Man Lou
Power: 150 (Mid-stage Martial Apprentice)
Destiny point: 30
State of Mind: Carefree
Jun Tianyun was shocked as he read through the panel. " So, The blue color represents something more powerful than me?"
Jun Tianyun saw the power of Man Lou, which is 150. It was three times greater than his.
Here, Martial artists were divided into five great realms: Martial Apprentice. Martial Master, Martial Grandmaster, Houtian realm, Xiantian realm.
Each great realm is divided into four stages- Low, Mid, High, and Peak stage.
" I better not mess with him. Otherwise, he will steamroll me." Jun Tianyun shuddered.
As he was walking by a bookstore, he suddenly stopped as he entered the bookstore.
There were various types of books, some even containing introductory level martial arts.
[ Ding! Host detected Three Styles of Wind Fist! 50 Fortune points to learn!]
" Finally!" Jun Tianyun's face turned elated as he clicked " Yes".
[ Ding! Host learned Three Styles of Wind Fist!]
A stream of information appeared in Jun Tianyun's mind as he became happy.
" Haha, Interesting. I can learn any skill by paying Fortune points?!"
" Damn, It same as learning a skill in a game!"
" I can become a powerful martial artist now! Hahaha! Riches and beauties, I will have all of them." Jun Tianyun laughed in his mind.
[ Warning! Clogged meridian detected! Host unable to perform Three Styles of Wind Fist!]
Another prompt appeared as Jun Tianyun's face fell. It was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head.
" Young man, Are you trying to get some martial technique? This Three Style of Wind Fist is good for beginners. It is one of the easiest techniques to practice." The bookkeeper nodded.
" What?! This is easiest to learn yet I can't use it?" Jun Tianyun screamed in his mind.
" Sister Qingyao! Explain it to me!" Jun Tianyun sat on a chair as he went inside God's Space.
" Yawn! What happened?"
Su Qingyao stretched her body as she lazed on a lounge chair.
Her hair was slightly messy, along with some drool near her lips. She looked very charming.
" Sister Qingyao, Why I can practice martial arts? What does the system mean by Clogged Meridian?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" Hm? HMM? It is really true!"
Su Qingyao mumbled as she floated to Jun Tianyun.
" There are Eight Governing Meridians in the human body. One needs to channel Internal Energy to reach Martial Apprentice Realm."
" However, there are many people whose Eight Meridians are closed naturally. To open them, There are two ways."
" First! A Houtian Realm master or higher can use their Internal Energy to open them up. However, there are also chances of failure."
" Second way! Some powerful medicinal pill or treasure in heaven and earth. However, finding them is much harder."
" Can't System open my meridians? I thought my system was invincible." Jun Tianyun asked hastily.
" Of course, I can. After all, I am the Saintess of Immortal Domain, Su Qingyao. Opening some body's meridians is nothing for me." Su Qingyao puffed her chest.
*After a while*
*BANG*
Jun Tianyun felt a terrible pain in his chest as Su Qingyao got blasted back. Her face turned pale as her figure almost turned transparent.
" Sister Qingyao! Are you alright!" Jun Tianyun shouted as he held Su Qingyao's quivering body.
" I-I am fine. This is so...unbelievable." Su Qingyao mumbled.
" Listen, Jun Tianyun. Your meridians got sealed by the World Law itself. There isn't much what the system can do." Su Qingyao sighed.
" I want to pass you my Immortal Techniques. However, Due to System restrictions, I can't o that."
" Fuck! Could it be I am destined to be an ordinary person?" Jun Tianyun clenched his fist.
" Wait, a minute! Who said that only using martial arts can make you powerful?!"
A lightbulb appeared on Jun Tianyun's head as he remembered the lottery rewards of the system. He didn't use them at all!
" Mechanical God's Memory Shard, Talisman Apprentice's Diary, Inheritance of Saint of Four Arts! Accept them all!"
[ Ding]
Panels after panels of system prompt appeared in front of Jun Tianyun as a vast amount of knowledge was poured into his mind.
