Chapter 8 - Chapter 7: Fond of Sneak Attacks? What a Coincidence, So Am I

[Do you wish to permanently use a million points of Fortune to rewrite this chapter of your life?]

Ning Xunqiu put pen to paper, and instantly a message appeared in his mind.

"Is it really possible?!"

"A million Fortune to directly attain Dao?!"

After his initial shock, Ning Xunqiu glanced at his own single-digit Fortune and wrote something easier.

[I chose to stay on the mountain for quiet cultivation, and the next day, observing the rising winds and sweeping clouds, I gain insight into an Immortal Technique, embarking on the path of Cultivation.]

[Do you wish to permanently use ninety-seven points of Fortune to rewrite this chapter of your life?]

"So expensive?"

Ning Xunqiu frowned.

Carry on.

[I chose to stay on the mountain for quiet cultivation, discovering a Cultivator's cave dwelling beneath the Golden Summit, where I find a cultivation technique.]

[Do you wish to permanently use fifty-seven points of Fortune to rewrite this chapter of your life?]

"Still requires fifty-seven points of Fortune? And permanently? Is it because there's no Cultivator's cave dwelling under the Golden Summit?"

Ning Xunqiu speculated.

[I descended the mountain and traveled the world, gaining insights, and finding a cultivation technique.]

[Do you wish to use twenty-eight points of Fortune to rewrite this chapter of your life?]

"This time only twenty-eight points of Fortune, and not permanent, because there are cultivation methods within the Seven Kingdoms?"

Ning Xunqiu noted this, inevitably speculating.

"Twenty-eight points of Fortune, not too different, note it down first."

After some contemplation, he picked up the pen and wrote.

[I chose to stay on the mountain for quiet cultivation, one day gaining insight, breaking through Above Innate.]

[Do you wish to permanently use nine points of Fortune to rewrite this chapter of your life?]

"Breaking through Above Innate, still requires nine points of Fortune? And permanently?!"

Ning Xunqiu tested several times to grasp the pattern.

The greater and more absurd the change within the book, the more Fortune it consumes. Besides changing his own ideas within the book, anything involving "Creation from Nothingness" would result in a permanent loss of Fortune.

Every point of Fortune he had was hard earned, not to be exhausted like fishing.

Calculating it like this, altering only his own thoughts within the book to trigger a chain reaction and then using the Celestial Derivation Volume to create life achievements yields the greatest benefit.

Ning Xunqiu wasn't disappointed in his heart, picked up the pen and wrote.

[I chose to stay on the mountain for quiet cultivation, striving for Above Innate.]

[Do you wish to use one point of Fortune to rewrite this chapter of your life?]

"Rewrite."

The Celestial Derivation Volume instantly transformed, lines of text resurfacing line by line.

...

[I know my master's affairs can't reach perfection temporarily, this time I focused on cultivation while on the mountain, with "Lifebound Character: Martial Saint" blessing, practicing "Wind and Cloud Double Extremes" to Great Success within a month.]

[Subsequently, I stopped practicing Martial Skills temporarily and began cultivating Inner Qi.]

[I was enthralled in cultivation, unable to extricate myself, leaving the mundane tasks of caring for junior brothers and sisters to my junior sister Gao Fei Xue.]

[Two years later, I broke through to Innate with "Sword Demon Heart Eye", stabilizing my cultivation, helping my junior sister break through to Inner Qi Realm. She broke through Martial Arts Third Realm before the age of twenty, junior sister was delighted, that night, a myriad of things happened, and I had a great time.]

[March 7th, cultivated Yin Yang Dao.]

[March 8th, cultivated Yin Yang Dao.]

[March 9th, how could I fall so low? Pushed my junior sister away, from this day! Vigorous cultivation! Breakthrough Above Innate soon!!]

[March 10th, no hurry.]

...

"???"

Ning Xunqiu, seeing this, found the text stopped displaying, seemingly stuck, his head full of question marks.

Waiting patiently for a while.

The text finally began to continue appearing.

[The following year, junior sister was pregnant, I finally remembered master, hastily descended the mountain heading to Pingyang City.]

[It was close, Pingyang City hadn't fallen yet, but master had already been dismissed from the position as commander.]

[I infiltrated the army, found master. This time I wore black robes, a ghostly mask on my head, traversing the void, standing with hands behind, the long robe fluttering without wind, exuding an Immortal aura.]

[Master indeed was greatly shocked.]

[My voice was elderly and ethereal, speaking: "Yu Country's monarch and ministers doomed themselves, the old general has served the country and people to his utmost, yet celestial mandate is hard to change."

"You have a destiny entwined with me, why not retreat to the forest with me, cultivate and seek Dao, wouldn't it be wonderful?"]

[I gave master two choices.]

[One, agree.]

[Two, follow me away.]

[Master hesitated for a moment, his face gradually firmed, about to speak.]

[I decisively knocked master unconscious, left a letter, disbanded Cyan Mountain disciples among the army, then packed master away overnight.]

[Three days later, master woke up, found himself within the hall at White Cloud Peak, looked at me and junior sister Gao Fei Xue, knowing I was that mysterious black-robed demon, not blaming me, just sat tremblingly, sighing, let it be.]

[I cheerfully said: Master, your disciple obtained Immortal's fortune at Golden Summit, breaking through Above Grandmaster in three years, yet this method ordinary people cannot break through, still need master's help to perfect the Innate Technique, then able to rejuvenate and prolong life to seek Dao.]

[Junior sister Gao Fei Xue stroked her slightly bulging stomach, telling master the offspring is on the way.]

[Master hesitated for a moment, agreed.]

[Soon, news from below the mountain, Pingyang City was broken, Yu Country successfully sued for peace.]

[At twenty, master's identity cannot be revealed, became an old farmer in Shennong Valley below Cyan Mountain, I became Cyan Mountain Sect Leader.]

[Various sects visited, "Ning Wushuang" once again renowned across the world, Crown Prince Chu Yu approached but I refused.]

[Without waiting for Yu Country to act, I personally went down to slay all directions, blood-washing Yu Country's Jianghu and court, knowing the minister who suggested this was Yu Country's Left Minister—Guo Xian, silently remembering his name in my heart.]

[Soon, news spread, King Yu and ministers touched ghosts and gods, received divine retribution, countless citizens of White Cloud City applauded.]

[I washed hands of everything, stayed with junior sister Gao Fei Xue, soon Ning Yu was born.]

[At twenty-three, Ning Yun was born smoothly.]

[At twenty-five, over the years in the White Cloud Peak hall, I understood deeply twelve Upper Martial Arts, seventy-two Middle Martial Arts, three hundred and six Lower Martial Arts, practicing all to Great Success.]

[At twenty-six, integrating myriad martial arts true intent, realized "True Understanding of Sword Dao", created the Innate Martial Arts "Seven Swords of Cross and Vertical".]

[Wind, Cloud, Rain, Thunder, Snow, Spirit, Absolute, a total of seven swords. I imparted "Seven Swords of Cross and Vertical" to sect disciples, Ah Qing, Zhao Ping, Zhang Han, Ning Yu, none reached Innate, each focusing on cultivating one sword exclusively.]

[At twenty-eight, under master's guidance, read through countless genuine hidden treasures within White Cloud Hall, ancestors' classics, closed myself for three months, created Innate Technique "Purple Sky Innate Skill", this technique righteous and peaceful, nurturing a mouthful of human's Innate Source Qi, stepping into Inner Qi Realm, then nourishing oneself, perfecting the foundation, a method for extending life span.]

[Even mediocre people only need diligent study and hard practice for fifty years, accumulating slowly, Inner Qi naturally spreads throughout the body, then comprehending Mental Realm, reaching the highest realm "Primordial", to tread into Innate Realm.]

[Master, upon reading "Purple Sky Innate Skill", the first systematic cultivation of Inner Qi technique within the Seven Kingdoms, praised me as Celestial Being Incarnation, amidst three hearty laughter sat away.]

[At twenty-nine, family period of mourning, junior sister Gao Fei Xue switched to cultivating "Purple Sky Innate Skill", progress rapidly.]

[At thirty, Jin Country unified the world, Emperor Jin Jiang Hong toured the world, passing by White Cloud City, accompanying Wei Xin, suddenly recalled his three sons dead in Pingyang City, led three thousand Jin Country Armored Warriors surrounding Cyan Mountain, coming to question.]

[I merely slightly displayed my strength above Grandmaster realm, Wei Xin frightened, respectfully saluted and backed away.]

[The next day, Wei Xin respectfully came to the mountain gate again.]

[This time I didn't even show up, concealing my breath, quietly bypassed the forest, approaching a hundred steps beside Wei Xin, raising my hand directly a move "Seven Swords of Cross and Vertical·Absolute Sword".]

[As Wei Xin turned his head, sword light flashed, his head flying high.]

[Hurriedly stepped forward to search body, found a Golden Talisman and a Cool Jade Stone within Wei Xin's sleeve.]

[I looked toward the ground not far at Wei Xin's head, his eyes full of disbelief, I know, he definitely wondered why such a master with extraordinary bearing would suddenly attack unexpectedly.]

[Wei Xin, surely died discontented.]
