"Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Countless golden thunderbolts struck the immortal mountain.
"The Dual-Pupil Eyes truly live up to their reputation as one of the most powerful ancient eye abilities."
"They actually allow me to step directly onto the path of the Human Emperor."
As Qin Tian spoke, waves of radiant light surrounded him. In no time, the sky was covered in crimson clouds, and from within these clouds emerged rare and mythical beasts. A five-clawed golden dragon soared through the air, a phoenix spat heavenly flames, and a Kirin galloped across the heavens. One by one, these ancient immortal beasts seemed to be descending upon the world.
"Look! It's coming from the young master's palace!"
"What a terrifying phenomenon. Is the young master about to break through?"
"Is our young master going to become a young Human Emperor?"
"Gasp! A young Human Emperor? We haven't seen one in tens of thousands of years. Is such a legendary figure truly about to appear?"
"Hahaha! With the young patriarch on our side, who in this era can compete with our Immortal Qin Clan?"
Atop the immortal mountain, Qin Tian slowly opened his eyes, a faint trace of dark red light flashing in them. In front of him appeared a message only he could see:
Name: Qin Tian
Physique: Dao Heart Demon Body!
Talent: Ancient Dual-Pupil Eyes
Cultivation: Human Emperor, First Stage
Identity: Young Patriarch of the Immortal Qin Clan
Techniques: Dao Heart Demon Seed, Immortal Soaring to the Heavens, Supreme Immortal Sutra...
Luck Points: 0
"I never thought I'd already break through to the Human Emperor Realm," Qin Tian smiled faintly. His innate talent was already extraordinary, but to become a Human Emperor at the age of sixteen was unthinkable—yet now, he truly was a young Human Emperor.
A Human Emperor is a being capable of establishing an ancient empire, one who can suppress the fate of entire dynasties.
"As expected, products from the system are always top-notch."
"These Dual-Pupil Eyes... Even in the system's store, they rank among the very best. My beginner's gift is indeed remarkable."
Qin Tian had earlier browsed the system's store to check the price of the Dual-Pupil Eyes, and the cost had made him stagger.
If the system hadn't gifted them to him, Qin Tian doubted he'd be able to afford them even in ten thousand years.
…
In the boundless Divine State, one of the most ancient domains among the three thousand domains, countless powerful sects and ancient clans thrived.
Towering immortal mountains reached into the clouds, and countless immortal beasts soared around a strikingly handsome young man.
The youth wore robes as white as snow, with an elegant and radiant aura. His eyes sparkled like stars, his features were exquisitely chiseled, and his bright eyes and teeth made him look extraordinary. A few strands of black hair drifted lazily across his forehead.
The surrounding spiritual energy surged around him.
The youth's gaze was calm, as if nothing in the world could stir his emotions. He was aloof, as if he were a celestial being, indifferent to everything below him.
He was Qin Tian, the son of the patriarch of the Immortal Qin Clan, one of the most revered forbidden clans of the Primeval Immortal Domain. The clan's legacy spanned countless epochs, and within the river of history, they had produced supreme emperors who carried the mandate of heaven.
When he was born, purple energy surged across a million miles, a Kirin rode clouds bearing jade, and phantoms of true dragons and celestial phoenixes surrounded him. Immortal energy filled the air, and even the clan's ancient emperors were shaken, sending decrees to protect him.
"Young master, some within the clan have raised objections to your overseeing the
His eyes burned with fervor as he gazed at the youth before him, the dazzling celestial heir.
His name was Qin Wu, a loyal servant that Qin Tian had trained from a young age. He was devoted solely to Qin Tian.
"It's Qin Ling and his lot, isn't it?" Qin Tian narrowed his eyes slightly. Even within his own clan, he had rivals.
They were likely afraid that he would claim the resources of an entire realm. And yet, to Qin Tian, such resources were trivial.
What truly mattered to him wasn't the resources of a single realm.
The system had already informed him that the first Child of Destiny was born in the Qingyun Realm, a lower realm of the Primeval Immortal Domain. Qin Tian took his first encounter with a Child of Destiny very seriously.
Qin Tian had reincarnated—more accurately, he had transmigrated, much like being reborn. In his previous life, he had been an avid reader of novels, familiar with all the tropes of how protagonists rose to power. Stories of useless heirs rising to greatness, servants killing their masters to gain divine techniques—he'd read it all. Originally, Qin Tian had prepared himself for the role of the struggling protagonist. But instead, he was reborn as the young patriarch of a top-tier immortal clan.
The Immortal Qin Clan was one of the most ancient, powerful factions even within the Primeval Immortal Domain. Its foundation was terrifying, and Qin Tian was the son of its patriarch.
His status was unrivaled in the Primeval Immortal Domain, and no treasure, pill, or artifact was out of his reach.
At first, Qin Tian thought he was just born as a natural prodigy, but on his sixteenth birthday, the system awakened—specifically, a system designed to hunt down Children of Destiny.
The system allowed him to exchange destiny points for divine techniques, immortal arts, and even powerful bloodlines and physiques.
But these exchanges required destiny points, a currency earned by altering the fate of Children of Destiny.
As long as Qin Tian accumulated enough destiny points, he could purchase anything from the system's store.
Since its awakening, the system had recently notified Qin Tian that a Child of Destiny had appeared in the Qingyun Realm.
A Child of Destiny is a being with heaven-defying fortune. They would stumble upon rare treasures in what seemed like trash, find priceless treasures in forbidden lands, and, no matter how dire the situation, would always survive with hidden trump cards. Even death was often just a temporary setback, as some fortuitous encounter would soon revive them.
Such beings must be struck down quickly, with no chance for recovery.
Having read so many web novels, Qin Tian knew just how terrifying protagonists could be.
"System, can I just kill them outright?" Qin Tian asked in his mind. After all, Children of Destiny grow stronger incredibly fast, faster than you could imagine.
"Master, a Child of Destiny's fortune is incredibly high. At the height of their fortune, the chances of failure are significant, and failure would result in severe backlash from their fate."
"I suggest draining most of the Child of Destiny's fortune before attempting to kill them. This way, Master can also earn more destiny points."
"I knew it. Killing a Child of Destiny isn't going to be that easy," Qin Tian sighed inwardly. However, these Children of Destiny were still weak, far from his level. He had time to gradually strip them of their fortune.
The reason Qin Tian had sought to oversee the Qingyun Realm was to ensure total control over the Qin Clan's subordinate forces there, setting his plans in motion with absolute precision. After all, the Qin Clan was not his alone, and he had to claim the moral high ground.
"Don't worry about Qin Ling," Qin Tian said calmly after a brief moment of thought, addressing Qin Wu. To Qin Tian, Qin Ling was merely a minor nuisance. Could his opposition amount to anything?
Never forget, Qin Tian's identity placed him among the very top of the Immortal Qin Clan. Except for the ancient beings who safeguarded the clan's destiny, he had nothing to fear from anyone.
The Primeval Immortal Domain was boundless and vast, home to countless races. It stood as the absolute center of the heavens and the myriad star realms.
Here, unworldly great sects, emperor-level lineages, supreme ancient kingdoms, primeval royal clans, and immortal ancient clans thrived. It was the most powerful place among the myriad stars.
The cultivation realms of the Primeval Immortal Domain were divided as follows: Spirit Meridian, Divine Transformation, Origin, Divine Mansion, Grand Void, Human Emperor, Heavenly Sovereign, God and Demon, Ancient God, Dao Sovereign...
Suddenly, several powerful presences appeared before Qin Tian.
"Congratulations to our Qin Clan for producing such a peerless genius."
"For Qin Tian to become a Human Emperor at such a young age—he will surely lead our Immortal Qin Clan to even greater heights."
"Hahaha! With a disciple like Qin Tian, how could our Qin Clan not prosper? But as your uncle, I'd like to test your strength a little..."
