Chapter 007: The Newbie Gift Pack, System, Add Points!

After digesting the information regarding Su Qingge, Gu Changge fell into a thoughtful silence.

“Young Lord, there is one matter this old servant does not understand.”

Elder Ming stood nearby, a trace of confusion etched onto his weathered face.

Knowing Gu Changge’s temperament, he knew the Young Lord never did anything without a purpose; every move was calculated. However, he couldn’t fathom the reason behind today’s specific order: Why did the Young Lord command him to suppress the aura around Ye Chen?

It was a reasonable question.

Having transmigrated and fully assimilated his predecessor’s memories, Gu Changge had already prepared a plausible explanation.

His gaze remained calm and unhurried as he spoke. “Ye Chen possesses Great Providence. I can use him as a beacon to locate Fated Chances for myself.”

This statement wasn’t a lie.

Gu Changge intended to harvest Ye Chen’s Luck Points, and a “Child of Providence” was naturally a magnet for treasures and opportunities. Snatching those opportunities from under the protagonist’s nose? That was practically written in the Villain’s job description.

“I see…” Elder Ming nodded, looking enlightened. “So that is your plan.”

Since childhood, the Young Lord had been hailed by the Family as a “Born Divine Being.” His vision and foresight often surpassed even the older generation. Elder Ming didn’t doubt the validity of the claim. After all, while Gu Changge’s descent to the Lower Realm was nominally for “training,” his true goal was to search for a supreme Fated Chance.

“Go to the dungeon. Monitor Ye Chen’s every move closely,” Gu Changge instructed, a new thought crossing his mind. “However, no matter what happens, do not interfere.”

“Understood, Young Lord.”

Elder Ming bowed, his figure gradually dissolving into the void.

Gu Changge had already figured out the mechanics of Luck degradation.

Striking Ye Chen directly was one method. The other was seizing his opportunities. Some things—like interpersonal relationships—were fragile. Even Ye Chen’s “Heavenly Father” couldn’t force people to like him if Gu Changge drove a wedge between them.

Just now, the rift between the heroine, Su Qingge, and Ye Chen had likely widened into a chasm.

Using the heroine Su Qingge to reduce Ye Chen’s Luck Points was indeed a good method.

In the main hall, just by employing a slight trick through Su Qingge, he had disrupted Ye Chen’s state of mind.

It was evident that damaging the relationship between the Child of Providence and the heroine was feasible.

Furthermore, after grasping Su Qingge’s weakness, he could also apply some schemes on her.

“Su Qingge still has over 300 Luck Points… quite a tempting morsel.”

Gu Changge shook his head, a strange expression playing on his face as he grew more comfortable in his role as the villain.

The next moment, he summoned the System.

A translucent blue interface materialized before his eyes.

[Host]: Gu Changge

[Identity]: True Disciple of Daootian Immortal Palace

[Warehouse]: Newbie Gift Pack x1 (Unclaimed)

“Newbie Gift Pack?”

Gu Changge blinked. He had been so focused on the stats that he had completely ignored the warehouse tab.

[Would you like to claim it?] The System prompted.

Gu Changge scoffed. “Claim it. Obviously.”

Hum!

A golden chest, radiant and overflowing with divine light, leaped out of the interface. It bloomed with dazzling brilliance before slowly clicking open.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host. Your luck is exploding!]

[Obtained: Domain-Breaking Talisman x1]

[Obtained: Five-Colored Dharma Robe x1]

[Obtained: Damaged World Seed (1/3) x1]

The System’s notification chimed in his ear.

Gu Changge mused that this was essentially a gacha mechanic—purely dependent on RNG. Although he was currently plagued by “Black Luck,” it seemed the System’s rewards were exempt from his misfortune.

The three items appeared to be high-quality goods.

The Domain-Breaking Talisman, as the name suggested, allowed one to pierce through domain barriers and travel between realms.

The Five-Colored Dharma Robe was a defensive Magical Artifact. Gu Changge scanned the description and raised an eyebrow.

Defends against a full-power strike from a Void God Realm expert.

In this world, the cultivation hierarchy was strict: Physical Body, Spirit Sea, Soul Palace, Transcendent, Great Power, Holy Lord, Conferred Marquis, Conferred King, Void God.

Gu Changge was currently at the peak of the Holy Lord Realm. The Void God Realm was three major stages above him—a realm where beings could shatter mountains and rivers with a thought.

He immediately equipped the robe.

Externally, it appeared as a simple, moon-white inner garment. The material was exquisite, flowing with a hazy, ethereal luminescence like an immortal’s raiment. Aside from looking expensive, it was unassuming.

Next, his attention turned to the Damaged World Seed.

[World Seed (Complete): Upon refining, it can nurture a universe within the body, creating an endless cycle of life and death, forming a self-contained dimension.]

“Interesting. A self-contained world within the body?”

This could absolutely be classified as a Supreme Divine Object.

Gu Changge’s eyes lit up. He had been considering his escape plans should he ever face a truly insurmountable crisis. An internal world was the ultimate sanctuary.

It’s a pity it’s only one-third complete.

Gu Changge sighed. “Forget it. No use dwelling on it. Let’s focus on raising my cultivation first.”

The sky is vast, the earth is vast, but raw power is the greatest truth.

No one could stop him from grinding levels.

“Deep Blue! Add points!”

…

“Wait, wrong cheat.”

“System, add points for me.”

Can Destiny Points earned through my own hard work really be called cheating?
