Chapter 29 The Golden Legend!
Chen You suddenly felt a pang of regret.
He regretted being so cautious yesterday and not going straight into the city to take a look at the Supreme Tower!
If I had come yesterday and activated this so-called Supreme Membership, wouldn't that mean I already possess a Heavenly Rank treasure today?
Being cautious can sometimes really lead to trouble!
Chen You inwardly regretted his actions, but his face remained impassive.
He rubbed his hands together as he watched the giant lucky wheel slowly appear before him.
He said to Hill impatiently, "Let's have a lottery! Now!"
We spent a billion dollars, all for this moment!
Before the lottery, Chen You suddenly remembered the ritual he always performed before drawing cards in his previous life.
He cleared his throat and made a request to Hill in a serious tone.
"Um, could you play 'Good Luck' as background music for me?"
"...?"
A very subtle stiffness appeared on Hill's flawless, professional smile.
A hint of confusion, which even the data stream couldn't conceal, flashed in her deep blue eyes.
"Honorable guest, are you referring to... some kind of spell or musical piece that can increase luck?"
She maintained her elegant demeanor and asked the question with great care.
Looking at her serious expression, Chen You immediately lost his mind.
Indeed, expecting an NPC from another world to know Earth's divine song is a bit of a stretch.
"Never mind, forget I said anything." Chen You waved his hand, no longer dwelling on it.
He refocused his attention on the enormous, luminous turntable in front of him.
The turntable was divided into ten equally sized sectors, without specific item names labeled, but instead using colors to distinguish levels.
Three pieces of [Yellow] grade green, three pieces of [Mysterious] grade blue, two pieces of [Earth] grade purple, and... two pieces of [Heaven] grade gold!
There's a one in five chance you'll win the top prize!
Chen You took a deep breath.
This probability, in any game he's ever played, would be considered a perk only a game planner would release when they're drunk.
"System, please don't let me down!"
He prayed to the Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor, and all the gods and Buddhas in the sky.
Then he stretched out his finger and slammed it on the "Start" button in the center of the turntable!
hum-
The turntable emitted a soft hum and instantly began to spin at high speed, its various colors of light intertwining to form a dazzling halo that was mesmerizing.
Chen You's gaze was fixed on the turntable, and his heart began to race uncontrollably.
Even though he knew that the government was footing the bill for all of this, he was still nervous.
This kind of lottery mechanism would get all players' hearts racing in any game.
What's more, this was a lottery opportunity that cost a billion!
The pointer swept across the rapidly spinning halo of light, like a lightning bolt chasing a streak of light.
Gradually, the speed of the turntable slowed down.
The pointer moves sequentially across green...blue...green...
Chen You held his breath.
Purple swept past again...
His heart was in his throat.
The pointer moved slower and slower, as if in slow motion, swinging back and forth at the boundary between gold and purple, provocatively.
"Gold! Gold! Gold!" Chen You shouted frantically in his heart.
Finally, just as Chen You was about to shout out, the pointer crossed the dividing line.
With a clear and melodious chime, it came to a steady stop in one of the golden areas!
In an instant, the entire turntable burst into golden light!
A thick golden beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Chen You, and a grand and solemn system notification sounded in his ears!
[Ding! Congratulations! You have won the Heavenly Rank Grand Prize!]
Golden Legend!
Hill's ever-present professional smile finally showed a genuine touch of emotion when he saw that golden hue.
She bowed slightly, her tone carrying a hint of amazement and congratulations.
"Congratulations, valued VIP member, you have won a [Heavenly] level prize."
At the same time, a system notification popped up in front of Chen You.
[System Notification: Congratulations! You have obtained the Heaven-Rank Cultivation Technique - "Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique" in the Supreme Lottery!]
[Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique (Skill Book)]
[Quality: Celestial]
[Introduction: Legend has it that this is the ultimate technique of the ancient Lord of Potian City, consisting of nine forms, capable of shattering the heavens with a single strike. To cultivate this technique, one must possess unparalleled swordsmanship talent and an unwavering will.]
[Learning Requirements: Profession - Immortal Cultivator.]
Heavenly Rank Cultivation Technique!
It's still an aggressive sword technique!
It's out!
This is a huge profit!
Chen You looked at the ancient sword manual that shimmered with a faint golden light and was so excited he almost jumped up.
The Nine Revolutions Primordial Chaos Technique is fundamental, an internal cultivation method that determines the depth of one's spiritual power and the speed of cultivation.
Before that, his only means of attack was to wildly slash with the novice iron sword or smash talismans.
What he has always lacked is a true art of killing!
Now, a Heaven-rank sword technique has directly made up for his biggest weakness!
"Phew..." Chen You let out a long breath, forcibly suppressing the ecstasy in his heart.
I chose to study immediately.
[System prompt: Do you wish to learn the first move of the "Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique"?]
"yes!"
A golden light flew out from the manual and instantly entered Chen You's brow.
Countless insights into sword techniques, usage skills, and the circulation routes of spiritual energy flooded into his mind like a tidal wave.
[System notification: You have learned the first move of the "Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique"—'Startling Swan'.]
[Agile and swift sword attack, consuming 5 points of spirit power and dealing 200% of attack power as damage. It also has a certain chance to trigger the 'Armor Penetration' effect.]
200% attack power!
Moreover, after learning it, Chen You naturally discovered that this move could be used in close combat when equipped with sword-type weapons.
At the same time, even when not equipped with sword-type weapons, it can still unleash sword energy for ranged attacks!
powerful!
too strong!
Just then, Hill, who was standing to the side, spoke again with a smile, her voice as gentle as a spring breeze.
"Congratulations, esteemed guest. As a special gift for your first activation of the Supreme Membership, the system will grant you an additional [Mystic]-level lottery draw opportunity."
As she spoke, she waved her hand, and three identical cyan cards floated in front of Chen You.
Please select your gift.
Are there any free gifts?
Chen You was taken aback, then overjoyed.
Even though it's only the lowest Xuan level, who wouldn't love something given away for free?
Without thinking much, he followed his instincts and chose the middle one.
The card flipped over, transforming into a beam of blue light that entered his brow.
[Ding! You have acquired the Mystic-level skill - Seeing Through Qi.]
[Skill: Seeing Through Qi]
[Quality: Mystic]
[Effect: Your eyesight has been slightly enhanced, allowing you to see beyond appearances and vaguely perceive special phenomena invisible to the naked eye.]
"Can one discern a person's heart through their aura?"
Chen You clicked his tongue, not quite understanding what the use of this skill was.
It feels a bit useless.
Leave it alone!
Since it was a free gift, it's better than nothing.
Chen You quickly put the Xuan-level skill out of his mind, his attention drawn to what Hill said next.
"Dear guest, the Supreme Pavilion's service network covers every corner of the 'Origin Realm,' whether you are in a bustling main city or a remote village."
"As long as you find the Supreme Building, you can enjoy the same service."
Hill bowed slightly, his azure eyes fixed on Chen You, his tone carrying a subtle, unspoken meaning.
"At the same time, as a VIP member, you have the right to consult VIP Lou with any questions."
"We will answer any questions that Supreme Tower knows for you."
Any questions?
Chen You's heart stirred.
He immediately thought of the unresolved countdown hanging above his head.
[PVP Protection Mode Remaining Time: 29 days, 10 hours, and 07 minutes...]
Zhang Yunhai from the tactical group had mentioned this before, back in the underground base.
This 30-day beginner protection period is his last and only safe window for development.
What happens after the protection period ends?
What will happen?
Will those guys on the leaderboard who are often over level 90 and whose race names sound incredibly powerful pounce on us like sharks smelling blood?
What exactly is the PVP mechanism of "Source Realm"?
Are there penalties for malicious kills?
These were questions that neither Li Guoan nor the entire expert group could answer for him.
But now, an answer seems to be right in front of us.
Chen You's eyes sharpened, and he asked in a deep voice:
"I'd like to know what changes will occur after the new player protection period ends?"
