Even though Li An felt her son was hiding something, she had no choice but to accept it, believing someday Tian Huang will tell her the truth. After making sure Tian Huang was fine, she left the Tian siblings to themselves and left. She had been neglecting her duties as an Elder for the past couple of days due to her son, but now that he was fine, she felt reassured and went back to the Elder Pavilion.
Back at the room, Tian Huang suddenly found his sister looking at him with weird eyes. Inwardly he had realized that it will not be possible to fool his sister since she was aware of the discord he had with Chen Jiang.
“Tell me the truth brother. It was that Chen Jiang who ostracized that trap for you, wasn’t it?” Tian Lei suddenly opened her mouth and straightforwardly asked. Knowing it will be futile to avoid it any further, Tian Huang nodded. Tian Lei clenched her fists as intense murderous light flashed in the depth of her eyes and the temperature of the room dropped several degrees instantly. Suddenly, Tian Lei felt a pair of strong and warm hands grabbing hers and her anger subsided.
“Sis, calm down. I know you want to take revenge on that bastard, but he is the son of the Third Elder after all and it won’t be easy to deal with repercussions after killing him” Tian Huang spoke to remind Tian Lei the situation they were in. Sure enough, Tian Lei came back to her senses and after analyzing everything with a cool mind, she nodded her head.
Tian Huang inwardly sighed and reminded her again not to do anything dangerous and it won’t be too late to take revenge when they were strong enough to avoid any backlash.
As Tian Lei left her brother’s room, she was inwardly shocked at the sudden change in her brother’s temperament and wisdom. As far she knew, he always used to get scared with the mention of Chen Jiang’s name and went along with whatever she said. But today, he seemed much more calm and composed, as if he had been reborn into a different person all of a sudden after that incident.
‘Is this the so called blessing from the misfortune? Has my brother decided to turn over a new leaf after experiencing a near death experience?’
With that though it mind, Tian Lei left Tian Huang alone with a smile on her face. If Tian Huang really changed for the better, then the happiest person will be Tian Lei. She always believed her brother to be the most talented despite others saying otherwise. Maybe the time for her brother to outshine everyone else and soar to heavens has finally come.
As Tian Lei left leaving Tian Huang alone in the room, Tian Huang stared blankly at his own hands, trying to digest to all the information he had in his mind. After a few minutes his eyes regained their focus and showed a strong determination.
‘Since I have arrived in this world with no away of going back anytime soon, I might as well start my journey to the top just like every other mc. Just that, every other mc has a cheat like ability of their own but what do I have?’
It was exactly this moment that he heard a voice in his mind.
‘*Ding* Congratulations User to have become the host of The System’
‘*Ding* Lottery System has been unlocked. As a reward for initializing The System for the first time, you have been given a free lottery ticket.
Going through the sudden influx of information in his mind, Tian Huang was petrified for a whole minute.
“Hahahahahhaha…….”
Tian Huang started laughing all of a sudden. ‘So I have a fucking System inside me? That’s pretty OP for a cheat like ability if the system is anything like the ones I have read in those novels. Well, If I can’t stand at the pinnacle even with so much advantage, then I should bang myself to death.’
Recalling the System telling him about a lottery system, he tried thinking about it.
‘Lottery System’
‘*Ding*’
If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
Suddenly a screen popped in front of his eyes. There was a display screen in the center and a big red button below it. A smaller display screen beside it displayed ‘1’. Tian Huang guessed he had to press the red button to initiate the lottery and the smaller display probably displayed the number of turns he had. Deciding to give it a try, he imagined pressing the button and with a *Ding*, the screen in the bigger display started flashing in multicolored light. After 30 seconds the intensity of flashed slowed down and Tian Huang could see a lot of words jumping around in a very fast speed inside the screen. Suddenly with a *Ding* the screen froze and the thing which it displayed made Tian Huang thoughts run wildly.
‘Rinnegan’
‘.……………’
‘.…………………………………’
‘Fuck. Did this fucking system gave me what I think it gave me?’ Tian Huang screamed inwardly, no longer calm and stared at the screen with a frenzied look. Any random person who has any slightest interest in animes must have watched Naruto and they would know how much of a cheat Rinnegan was.
‘*Ding* Congratulation! You have acquired the legendary eyes : Rinnegan. You can initiate the assimilation anytime. Warning! The Host’s body will be in vegetative state during assimilation so be careful.’
Looking at the new information, Tian Huang was overjoyed and without waiting for a second shouted “System, begin assimilation!”
‘*Ding* Command acknowledged. Beginning Assimilation. Duration - 5:00:00’
As soon as he read the message, Tian Huang lost his consciousness and his body slumped down. It was fortunate that he was lying down on his bed, so even if anybody walks in they will think he was sleeping. Otherwise, if Li An saw her son lying down on the floor not breathing, like he was dead, she probably would have suffered a heart attack.
Five hours passed away quickly and nobody disturbed Tian Huang during this time.
‘*Ding* Assimilation Successful.’
‘*Ding* Rinnegan Level 1 (0/100000)- A pair of legendary eyes from Narutoverse. Also known as God’s eyes, it gives myriad of abilities to its user. It’s abilities mainly manifest in the form of the power of Six Paths : Deva Path, Human Path, Asura Path, Animal Path, Preta Path & Hell Path. Other abilities will depend on the level of the eyes.
Unlocked Ability : Deva Path.’
The first thing that Tian Huang saw was the information regarding Rinnegan. The level system was not out of his expectations since this was a bloody RPG type System afterall. But as he advances more in the path of cultivation, Rinnegan’s level will keep upgrading as well and maybe one day he can unlock Rinne-Sharingan and use its Space-Time teleportation ability to return home. It was a pity that he had only access to Deva Path as of right now, but other paths will eventually get unlocked so he was not discouraged. Plus Deva Path’s control over attractive and repulsive forces was a pretty strong ability as well.
As Tian Huang got up and looked around, he could feel the change in his vision. If he wanted, he could even focus on a dust particle a few meters away. Looking around for a mirror, Tian Huang found one lying around nearby and took a look at his new eyes. Looking at his violet colored eyes with rings originating from the center, Tian Huang was feeling excited inside his heart. Possessing Rinnegan was one of his childish wishes when he used to watch Naruto. Who would have thought he will achieve his dream one day, that too in such a cliche situation?
Turning his head, he focused on a sword hanging in the wall.
‘Almighty Pull’
*Swoooosh*
As soon as he activated his newfound power of almighty pull, the sword instantly came flying towards his palms as if some invisible force was pulling it. Pleased with himself, Tian Huang dropped the sword and for the first time inspected his body after having arrived in this world.
He had a fairly thin body with a handsome appearance. His eyes when Rinnegan was deactivated were light blue in color and he had inherited his mother’s dark brown hair. He was 15 years old this year, but his appearance was of an 18 year old teenager. Tian Huang suddenly remembered the lifeline of warriors of this world and inspected his dantian. It was located below his navel. As his senses focused on this mysterious location, he found nothing but fog like mist swirling inside. Recalling the information from memories of the previous Tian Huang, he realized that this was actually the spiritual energy that the warriors absorbed in this world. As a warrior advances through the 10 levels of Foundation Stage, the amount of spiritual energy they can hold increases accordingly.
The good thing about Rinnegan was that it does not cost any sort of energy, except for a few special abilities, which would give a lot of advantages to Tian Huang later.
After cleaning up the mess in his room, Tian Huang sat on his bed and recalled the information about cultivation from his memories. There were various things associated with cultivation but the most important were : Cultivation manuals & Battle Skills. Cultivation manuals were absolutely necessary since without one you can’t cultivate. Also, the grade of cultivation manual played a huge role in determining the upper-limit of your martial journey. The only grade Tian Huang knew was Yellow grade, and anything above that was not known or available in a remote region like Misty City. As for battle skills, as the name implied, these are the techniques with the help of which an individual can put forth his/her understanding of laws and amplify them to bring forth their full potential in a battle. Battle skills were graded the same way as cultivation manuals and the highest grade battle skill available in Misty City was an yellow grade one.
