Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 1: Immortal Body, Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart
Firmament Star, Azure Dragon Domain, Black Heaven Sect.
Inside a dim room lit by a solitary oil lamp, a handsome youth of about fifteen or sixteen years lay motionless upon a couch.
Though the young man was still, the rhythmic rising and falling of his chest proved that life remained within him.
“Where am I?” As his consciousness swirled, the youth slowly opened his eyes, his face clouded with confusion as he surveyed his surroundings.
Suddenly, a look of agony crossed his features. A massive flood of memories rushed into his mind with frantic intensity, overwhelming his senses.
A short while later, the boy lay back on the bed, gasping for air. Sweat beaded on his forehead, and the dazed look in his eyes finally began to sharpen into clarity.
“I never imagined such a thing would happen to me.”
A helpless laugh escaped the young man's lips.
Having fully integrated the memories in his mind, he now understood his situation.
His name was Chu Kuangren, an outer sect disciple of the Black Heaven Sect. Due to his extraordinary good looks, he was quite famous among his peers.
However, his striking face had also invited trouble. A True Elder Martial Sister had taken a liking to him and intended to keep him as her personal male companion.
Essentially, she wanted to keep him as a pet.
She had even promised him a promotion to the inner sect within three years as a reward.
Despite being a mere outer sect disciple, Chu Kuangren possessed an arrogant streak and felt only disgust toward such underhanded paths to success. Consequently, he had righteously and sternly rejected her.
Unexpectedly, the Elder Martial Sister flew into a humiliated rage. In her anger, she struck him with a heavy blow, leaving him bedridden for two days without any sign of recovery.
“Since I can’t change the past, I might as well embrace it. Now that I’ve transmigrated into this body, I need to figure out how to survive,” Chu Kuangren whispered.
Ding...
“Your plug-in [Fantasy Roulette] has arrived.”
“As a new user, you have been granted one 10x lucky draw. Do you wish to activate it now?”
A mechanical female voice echoed within his mind.
For a moment, Chu Kuangren was stunned.
Fantasy Roulette?
Wasn't that the game plug-in he had downloaded just before he transmigrated?
Could this be his golden finger?!
Chu Kuangren’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
Before his soul crossed over, he had been playing a Xianxia online game, and his roommate had introduced him to this Fantasy Roulette plug-in.
“Use it now,” Chu Kuangren commanded silently.
Instantly, a vibrant, rainbow-colored roulette wheel filled with various slots manifested before him.
The names of the rewards visible in the slots were enough to leave anyone breathless.
There were prizes like the Miraculous Nine Suns, the Immortal Body, the Yin and Yang Ring...
The roulette's pointer began to spin at a dizzying speed.
“Congratulations! The host has obtained the Legendary Banished Immortal Aura.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained one Starlight Spirit Gathering Array.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained the God-tier constitution, Immortal Body.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained the God-tier Remarkable Eye of Revelation.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained one Starlight Human Mountain Stamp.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained one Starlight Life Extension Pill.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained the Legendary constitution, Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained one Starlight Treasure Map.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained one Legendary Winged Soldier.”
“Congratulations! The host has obtained one Legendary Yin and Yang Ring.”
A barrage of notifications rang out in Chu Kuangren’s mind like a rapid-fire stream.
He couldn't help but gulp in disbelief.
He had never expected the plug-in to be this overpowered.
“The aforementioned items have been stored in the roulette room. Please inspect and claim them at your convenience.” The robotic female voice faded away after finishing the announcement.
The roulette wheel before Chu Kuangren vanished as well.
The Fantasy Roulette was a tool Chu Kuangren had acquired before his transmigration; it allowed players a daily chance to win prizes.
The rewards were categorized into grades: Iron, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Starlight, Legendary, God, Transcendent, and Eternal.
The ten-draw streak was a special perk for new users, guaranteeing items of Starlight grade or higher.
Chu Kuangren accessed the roulette room, which functioned like an inventory screen in a video game.
Taking a deep breath, he struggled to remain calm while staring at the spectacular array of prizes he had won.
“Claim Immortal Body,” Chu Kuangren whispered.
Suddenly, a terrifying wave of energy exploded within him. This power coursed through his limbs and bones, washing over his skin, muscles, and every single cell in his being!
It felt as if he had been tossed into a massive blender; his body was being perpetually shredded and reconstructed, over and over again.
“F**k!!!”
The agonizing pain nearly caused him to black out, yet a mysterious force in his mind kept him conscious throughout the ordeal.
Fortunately, the torment did not last long.
A minute later, Chu Kuangren was sprawled on the floor, soaked in perspiration. “That sensation... was bloody intense!”
He pulled himself up and sat in a chair as the details of the Immortal Body were etched into his mind. He couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
Chu Kuangren channeled Qi into his right hand, concentrating it at his fingertips. He then sliced his left palm, creating a bloody gash.
Almost instantly, however, the flesh began to knit itself back together. The wound healed at a visible speed, returning to its original state in a heartbeat without leaving even a trace of a scar.
“The Immortal Body has six stages, and I’ve only reached the first, yet it’s already this powerful? The injuries Li Yao gave me are completely gone. I wonder how terrifying the next five stages will be?”
With a grin, Chu Kuangren turned his attention back to the roulette room.
What other incredible benefits did the remaining prizes hold?
“Claim Eye of Revelation.”
A faint light flickered within Chu Kuangren’s eyes. Upon closer look, one could see countless Daoist runes swirling within his pupils; it was a sight of profound mystery.
The glow faded, and his eyes returned to their normal appearance.
He could feel the power of the vision settling within him.
Chu Kuangren nodded, pleased with the result.
The Eye of Revelation allowed him to see through all illusions and provided detailed information regarding a target's race, Cultivation level, techniques, and more.
As a God-tier reward, it was easily on par with the Immortal Body.
“Claim Banished Immortal Aura.”
Chu Kuangren stepped toward a copper mirror to inspect himself. Suddenly, an air of refined purity surrounded him. Coupled with his already handsome features, he now looked like a celestial deity who had been exiled to the mortal realm.
In short, he was handsome.
To be more precise, he was bloody handsome.
After admiring his new look, Chu Kuangren looked at the remaining prizes with a contemplative expression.
Aside from the Immortal Body, the Eye of Revelation, and the Banished Immortal Aura, the effects of the other prizes were mostly internal.
This was especially true for the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart.
This constitution was ranked among the top ten of the 3,000 legendary physiques in the Firmament Star.
It hadn't been seen in the world for over ten millennia.
If such a physique were to manifest, it would surely trigger heavenly anomalies. At that point, the entire Black Heaven Sect would be thrown into an uproar.
Chu Kuangren hesitated for a moment before his gaze turned resolute. “So what if they are alerted?”
“The Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart is a Supreme Daoist Physique. Anyone possessing it is a favored child of heaven that any major power would kill to recruit. If I can impress the Sect leaders, the resources of the Black Heaven Sect will surely be poured into my Cultivation.”
“If I let fear stop me now, how can I ever hope to reach the summit of Cultivation? I might as well find a quiet corner to hide in for the rest of my life.”
“My name is Chu Kuangren! How can I not live up to being 'Kuangren' (Madman)?”
Chu Kuangren smirked. “Claim Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart.”
Immediately, an indescribable surge of power flooded his body.
The physical reconstruction was once again incredibly painful; it felt as though thousands of tiny needles were racing through his Meridians, all converging toward his heart.
However, compared to the fusion with the Immortal Body, this was far more manageable.
The original Chu Kuangren had possessed a stubborn will, which the current Chu Kuangren had inherited along with his memories.
As he claimed the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, a phenomenon began to manifest in the outside world.
Regardless of their owner's Cultivation level, every sword within the Black Heaven Sect began to vibrate uncontrollably, emitting sharp hums that pierced the very sky.
