Multiverse Skill System

"Do you really think I'm easy to bully? I was originally going to let you off the hook, but since you're courting death, I'll grant your wish."

His lazy gaze instantly sharpened, and in almost an instant, Yi Shuihan had eliminated all the wizards except Jay, before turning his attention to Jay.

At this moment, Yi Shuihan unleashed a combat power that far surpassed that of a Quasi-Saint. In Jay's eyes, he was at the Sage level. Just a moment before Yi Shuihan was about to kill Jay, Jay shouted, "Surrender."

Because it was so sudden, even though Yi Shuihan used time stop, he still managed to take away half of Jay's life, and a third of Jay's upper body was severed.

Fortunately, Jay was no ordinary person, and the injuries that would have killed an ordinary person did not take his life.

"What? You were so tough just now! Now you're surrendering?"

With a rather disdainful expression on his face, he said sarcastically.

"Cough cough."

Jay coughed violently, then pulled a small bottle from his pocket and slowly opened it. Because of his injuries, he had to repeat the action of opening the bottle three times before he succeeded. When he finally succeeded, his hand almost shook and he dropped the bottle.

Under Yi Shuihan's gaze, Jay drank the potion from the bottle. A strange red light emanated from the wounds on his body, and they began to heal slowly at a visible speed. As the wounds healed, the pain on Jay's face began to lessen, and his breathing became steady.

Kunpeng, who had been completely bewildered from beginning to end, slowly walked up to Yi Shuihan, his face full of shame.

"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't realize it just now."

Kunpeng was proud, but he hadn't played any role in the battle just now. Even though Yi Shuihan was the ultimate victor, he still felt ashamed. Of course, the most important thing was that he was worried that his inaction would cause Yi Shuihan to have other opinions.

Yi Shuihan raised his hand to stop Kunpeng from speaking, but didn't say anything. His expression was cold, which made Kunpeng feel uneasy.

Fortunately, Jay finally spoke at this moment, and Yi Shuihan's attention was diverted, greatly reducing the pressure on Kunpeng.

“Respected powerful one, I am a disciple of the Storm Sage of the Wizarding Empire. You cannot kill me. I demand to be treated as a prisoner.”

"The disciple of the Storm Sage?"

Yi Shuihan muttered to himself, somewhat surprised, wondering why this guy had changed so quickly. Wasn't he just prepared to die? Could it be that he was just pretending because all the other wizards were dead, and he couldn't keep up the act anymore?

"What happened before? Why were they so fearless?"

"That's because you destroyed the teleportation crystal."

Jay explained the value of the teleportation crystal, and then explained why he surrendered in the end. It was because Yi Shuihan used a Sage-level power at the end, a power that they could not resist. Under such circumstances, destroying the crystal could be forgiven, although they would still be punished to some extent.

Chapter 1195, Jay's Shock by the System

"I see, that makes sense."

After listening to Jay's story, Yi Shuihan nodded. Indeed, the gap between saints and those below saints is too great. No matter what the circumstances, they have no power to resist a saint. It is not unacceptable for people in the wizarding world to have their teleportation crystal destroyed by a saint-level being.

"Is your world not strictly based on realm, but on combat power to determine status?"

"That's right. As long as the combat power reaches the required level, the corresponding rank will be granted. If a wizard only reaches the required level but his combat power is far from reaching the required level, he will not be considered to belong to that level by others."

Jay said this with a matter-of-fact expression, clearly indicating that he agreed with it.

"It seems the wizarding world is truly terrifying! Is it a world where the strong rule?"

Thinking this to himself, Yi Shuihan wasn't particularly concerned, since his strength had always been above the realm.

"No wonder he acted this way after I used power surpassing that of a Quasi-Saint. Does that mean if I had revealed my power earlier, those people wouldn't have died?"

Silently mourn for the dead wizard for one second.

"Next, I will destroy three or more crystals as appropriate. Do you have any suggestions on which ones I should destroy?"

Yi Shuihan's words made Jay's expression suddenly become very interesting, and he seemed a little at a loss.

You want to destroy our key strategic points, and then you want me to suggest which ones to destroy? Isn't that a mistake? It's like you're talking to us like we're on the same side, when we're enemies!

Completely unable to figure out what Yi Shuihan was thinking, Jay simply remained silent. Moreover, he was somewhat skeptical that Yi Shuihan knew the locations of the other teleportation crystals. In his opinion, Yi Shuihan probably found this place by luck, and it was impossible for him to have known they were here from the beginning.

"Actually, I don't intend to be an enemy of your world. I am a merchant, not a person of this world. Like you, I come from another world. I came here to do business, only I came a few years earlier than you."

"Are you a businessman? Or not from this world?"

Jay looked at Yi Shuihan in surprise, his eyes filled with disbelief. After all, if what Yi Shuihan said was true, then there was no reason for him to destroy the teleportation crystal.

"That's right, I am indeed a businessman, a businessman who sells systems. As for the so-called system, you'll understand once you see this."

He then took out a system manual, written in a special script that would instantly convey its meaning to anyone who saw it.

Jay instinctively took the instruction manual. He had only reluctantly glanced at it because of Yi Shuihan's pressure, but once he started reading, he became completely engrossed and couldn't tear himself away.

"Such a thing actually exists! The system is actually something like this! It's amazing! A dual cultivation system! As long as we keep having intercourse, we can improve our strength, and there are no side effects."

"Legion System: You can summon various legions by completing missions."

"The Good Deeds System allows you to earn character points by doing good deeds, and you can accumulate character points to participate in a lottery."

Jay muttered to himself as he watched, his expression a mixture of madness and delusion.

Yi Shuihan didn't urge him, letting Jay read the instruction manual while a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing Yi Shuihan's smiling face, Kunpeng shivered. He was already somewhat familiar with Yi Shuihan and knew that whenever Yi Shuihan had such a smile on his face, someone would be tricked. He had also seen the same smile when he became Yi Shuihan's mount.

After a long while, Jay finally finished reading the instruction manual, let out a long breath, and his face was still flushed. Don't misunderstand, nothing indescribable happened. He was just too excited to know about the system's existence.

"Revered powerful one, is everything written here true?"

Jay's voice trembled as he spoke. After reading the instruction manual, he understood the power of the system. With a system, even a fool could become a powerful being. If the wizarding world could have some systems, the entire world would experience rapid development, even more important than conquering this ancient world.

"If I can bring the system's message back, I will not only escape punishment, but I will also be rewarded, and may even become the 25th Sage."

At this moment, his heart was surging with emotion. The crystal that Yi Shuihan had destroyed and even the men who had killed him no longer mattered. If he could choose again, he would still hope to encounter such a good thing as today.

It may be true that Jay is a disciple of a sage, but that does not mean that his status in the wizarding world is particularly high, because each sage has tens of thousands of disciples, and Jay is just one of them. To give an analogy, Jay is equivalent to a disciple of a sage in the primordial world, but he is the most numerous disciple of the Jie Sect.

There are 24 sages in the Wizarding World. Jay's status is not even in the top 100,000 in the Wizarding World, which is why he was sent here as an advance team despite being a disciple of a sage.

"Are you questioning me? Why would I lie to you? These things are certainly true. If you can provide something of sufficient value, I can give you a system right here and let you verify it."

Yi Shuihan's face darkened, and he looked displeased.

"I wouldn't dare. How could I possibly question you, sir? It's just that this matter is of great importance and I can't accept it for the time being."

Jay was extremely respectful, showing no fear or apprehension at Yi Shuihan's attitude. Instead, he felt immense joy. In his view, Yi Shuihan's reaction was normal; he would only be suspicious if Yi Shuihan had been overjoyed.

"My lord, I have some things here. Do you think you could exchange them for a system?"

As a Holy Spirit Wizard comparable to a Quasi-Saint, Jay naturally had his own reserves. Although he couldn't compare to the Quasi-Saints of the Primordial World, he was still wealthier than the average Great Luo Golden Immortal. After all, the Wizarding World had developed for many more years than the Primordial World, and the distribution of resources was similar. It was normal for him not to be as wealthy as his counterparts in the Primordial World.

"These items are enough to exchange for a relatively poor system. Do you really want to exchange them?"

"Very well, please grant my request, sir."

"In that case, you can choose one of these systems!"

Chapter 1196, Defining the Farm System

"The taunting system allows you to gain taunt points by making people dislike you. These taunt points can be exchanged for items, with the highest level of items available for exchange being the Saint level."

Logically speaking, a system that can exchange items for saints, or even sages in the Wizarding World, shouldn't be something Jay could afford. But this system is just a bit special!

The Mocking System is very famous even within the company. It is considered one of the top 10 systems with the highest mortality rate, along with the Suicide System and the Cuckold System. Even though the rewards it gives are included in all other systems, the price is still not high. Basically, people would not buy the Mocking System if they had other options.

"This system is pretty good, and it's the only system you can choose that can bring a substantial breakthrough in your strength. With it, breaking through to the Sage realm is not a dream."

Yi Shuihan said with a seductive look.

"Let's... forget it!"

Jay was tempted for a moment, but then firmly rejected the mocking system. Although Yi Shuihan was right, he didn't believe in himself and that he could survive after advancing. To advance to the Sage level, he probably had to offend everyone in the entire wizarding world!

Even the main characters with their protagonist aura would probably be ruined by this mockery system unless they stopped using it. However, how can one avoid offending anyone in this world? Once they taste the benefits of the mockery system, they will become uncontrollable and regret it too late.

What Jay didn't know was that even with exceptional self-control, obtaining the Taunt System would inevitably lead to its temptations. This was because the system spirit of the Taunt System would find various ways to entice the host. One of the materials used to create the Taunt System was a demon-temptator. To become a system spirit through a demon-temptator, one needed a mental state comparable to a saint to resist it. And with a mental state comparable to a saint, becoming a saint was not difficult, so the Taunt System naturally had no effect on it.

Jay really escaped with his life by not choosing to taunt the system!

"The second option is the Good Deeds System. This system is explained in its documentation, which I believe you have already read, so I won't go into details. Do you want to switch?"

The Good Deeds System? Doing good deeds earns you character points, which can be used to enter a lottery. Most of the prizes have positive effects, and some of them are even effective for someone like Jay.

"Could you please list all the options first?"

After thinking it over, Jay still hadn't made a decision. He decided to wait and see. If other options weren't suitable, this Good Deeds System would be a viable alternative.

"Sure, as a businessman, profit comes first. As long as you can offer benefits, your service attitude will definitely improve."

Yi Shuihan was very patient, not with Jay, but with the wizarding world behind Jay.

"There are three more systems you can choose from. The farm system allows you to grow spiritual creatures. As your level increases, the planting time will decrease, and you can save up to a thousand times the time. That is to say, if you put in a seed, you can get the results of a thousand years of planting in a year. The upper limit of the level of the things you can grow in this system is spiritual creatures with a growth cycle of less than a million years."

"The live streaming system can connect to a world, allowing viewers to watch live streams. Viewers' donations will then be converted into rewards, with the reward capped at the world's limit."

"The Chef God System aims to cultivate a Chef God. The Chef God's strength is not strong, at most only at the Celestial Immortal level, but the food he makes has various effects. It is not only delicious, but also has a certain benefit to the Great Luo Golden Immortal. In all the heavens and myriad realms, even the saints are proud to have a Chef God."

"That's it. So, which one do you want to choose: the Mocking System, the Good Deeds System, the Farm System, the Live Streaming System, or the God of Cooking System?"

Of the five systems, apart from the initial taunting system, the others are all fairly standard and at least not particularly deceptive, so Jay felt confident in choosing the later systems.

"The Good Deeds System is out of the question; I'm not cut out to be a good person. The Live Streaming System won't work either; pleasing others isn't easy. The God of Cooking System might be worth a try if my goal isn't to become a sage. So, I'll have to choose the Farm System. Many of the spiritual creatures under a million years old are quite useful to me! Although it will take much longer, it's worth it. Time is the last thing I lack."

As a Holy Spirit Wizard, Jay's lifespan would likely exceed 100 million years, but he is currently only over 30 million years old and in his prime.

"I choose the farm system."

When Jay said this, he felt a sense of relief and a strange sense of joy. It was supposed to be a good thing, but he felt like he had fought a fierce battle.

"Luckily, there are only a few choices. If there were more, I probably wouldn't know what to choose!"

Just thinking about those amazing and powerful systems in the instruction manual made Jay incredibly excited. If he had the chance to choose, he felt he would suffer from decision paralysis, as he couldn't bear to part with any of them!

"A farm system? A wise choice for you."

With a flick of his wrist, a ball of light emitting a strange glow appeared in Yi Shuihan's hand.

"Is this the system? On the surface, it doesn't seem to have anything magical about it."

After curiously examining the system that Yi Shuihan had taken out, Jay finally accepted it with some trepidation.

"I think you should know how to use the system; you can try it now."

Before Jay could reply, he immediately began to recognize the system as his master, and in the next few minutes, a dramatic change of expression unfolded in front of Yi Shuihan.

"Welcome to the Farm System developed by Wan Jie System Development Co., Ltd. I am Xiao Ling, the System Sprite, and I am happy to serve you. Now, let me introduce the functions of the Farm System. The Farm System is divided into levels 0-9, starting at level 0, where you can plant level 0 spirit items. The planting space is accelerated by 10 times. Planting level 0 spirit items three times will upgrade it to level 1..."

Jay's face went from initial excitement to surprise, frustration, exhilaration, and then to fervor, completely overwhelmed by the system's information.

"How is it? Are you satisfied with the farm system?"

"Satisfied, extremely satisfied. Thank you so much for giving me such a wonderful system."

"You're welcome. You bought the system, I didn't give it to you as a gift."

Chapter 1197, Crystal Seven Destroyed Four

Having personally experienced the system, Jay's attitude towards Yi Shuihan completely changed. Before, he was forced to be very submissive because of Yi Shuihan's strength, but now it was because of the system. The existence of the system could make him stronger.

"As I mentioned before, because I am a businessman, my primary concern is profit. The Heavenly Dao of this world created a Heavenly Dao Merit Ranking and issued missions to fight against external invaders. The rewards are quite good, so I came."

"The Heavenly Merit Ranking? What's that?!"

Yi Shuihan explained briefly, making Jay understand their situation. Jay's expression immediately became quite serious. He knew what this meant; it meant that it would be extremely difficult for them to enter the Primordial World to obtain resources. Once they entered the Primordial World, they would face the entire Primordial World's opposition.

"Thank you for informing me of this news, sir."

Jay said sincerely that it was also a merit to spread this news back to the wizarding world.

"Going back to the beginning, I want to destroy a few more crystals. Which ones do you think are good?"

"Sir? Can I ask you for a favor?"

"Oh?"

"I can take you to the crystal, but I hope you will spare the person guarding it."

Jay has finally gotten the hang of things, and things are now proceeding exactly as Yi Shuihan planned.

As the sole observer, Kunpeng watched the entire event with utter astonishment. Who could have imagined that Yi Shuihan could go to such lengths, getting the people of the Wizarding World to reveal the location of the teleportation crystal, and even after the crystal was destroyed, they wouldn't blame Yi Shuihan, only asking that no one be killed?

Just now, Jay explained the preciousness of teleportation crystals. The wizarding world would rather let a Holy Spirit Wizard, comparable to a quasi-saint, die than have a teleportation crystal destroyed.

"I don't need you to guide me. I already know all seven crystal locations. Do you think I stumbled upon this place by accident?"

As Yi Shuihan spoke, he immediately spat out the locations of the other six teleportation crystals.

"How is this possible? It's really all of them..."

Jay stared blankly at Yi Shuihan. What Yi Shuihan said was exactly the same as the information he had, and even more accurate.
