A burst of suction force suddenly erupted from the image on the river of time as it sensed An Lin's approach.
An Lin's heart jolted with shock, but before he had a chance to do anything, the suction force seemed to have lost its target after making contact with his illusionary body.
"Impressive …" He couldn't help but praise.
Chen Chen's power could only be described as unfathomably powerful. He could even use a spell technique that could isolate the Heavenly Time God's power. Not only that, but he could also mass-produce this spell technique and teach it to others!
He had just said that only those with exceptional aptitudes and cultivation bases at the Return to Void Stage or above could learn this spell technique, which was quite a high requirement. However, this was definitely an extremely important step for the human race in the fight against the representatives of the Heavenly Gods! The Heaven Crushing Sect really did live up to its reputation!
Just as An Lin was sighing with emotion, a "Ding Dong" suddenly sounded from his system.
His heart jolted upon hearing this. The system had been quite active recently!
Was it really not going to issue some kind of scam mission at a time like this?
He had already been trapped here for so long, if he continued to torture people, he would really die!
An Lin was a little uneasy as he opened the system and looked up.
A line of text appeared on his system.
"Detected that host has come into contact with the essential power of time, now assigning the following special mission:
"Enter a certain image on the river of time and experience the power of evil and die once.
"Mission Success: Receive stage two of the Yin God cultivation method.
"Mission Failure: Become a Celestial Maiden An Lin forever.
An Lin: "…"
F * ck you, system! Motherf * cker!! Did you hear that?!
Chen Chen discovered An Lin's strange expression, and he asked in a concerned voice, "An Lin, why are you crying?"
That's right, two streams of tears had already flowed down An Lin's face.
Life was so difficult, but the system still had to be the straw that broke the camel's back.
He slowly withdrew his foot, and his lips trembled as he spoke in a choked voice, "If you were given two choices, the first would be to enter the image on the river of time and die once. The second would be to become a Celestial Maiden forever, which would you choose? "
Chen Chen's expression shifted drastically. "What nonsense are you spouting?!"
Shangguan Yi immediately replied, "Of course I choose to become a Celestial Maiden!"
An Lin's face darkened. "You're a woman, don't talk!"
Shangguan Yi reluctantly shut her mouth as she turned to look at An Lin with curiosity in her large, bright eyes. "Do you have to choose one?"
An Lin wiped the tears off his face and nodded. "Yes."
Shangguan Yi: "…"
Chen Chen's expression changed slightly. He looked at An Lin and asked hesitantly, "Fellow Daoist An Lin, why are you acting so strange? Have you been cursed?"
An Lin immediately nodded. "Yes, I've been cursed. It's a curse called Xi Tong."
"Xi Tong's curse?" Chen Chen stroked his chin with a blank expression. "But I don't see any traces of a curse on you …"
An Lin raised his head with a gloomy expression as he looked up at the boundless golden space. "Perhaps it's because this curse is too powerful? There should be a way to dispel it or transfer it, but I'm not powerful enough to do that at my current level, and I don't know how long I'm going to be tortured by it … "
Chen Chen didn't dwell on this topic after seeing that An Lin was in a good state. "I feel like gender is just a worldly thing. Compared to going through a terrifying ordeal and coming back from the dead, I don't think becoming a Celestial Maiden is too much of an issue."
He continued to look at An Lin with a cold expression. "If you feel like you're not used to becoming a Celestial Maiden, you can use an immortal spell to transform yourself into a man after you become a Celestial Maiden."
An Lin instantly flared up upon hearing this, and he grabbed onto Chen Chen's collar with an agitated expression. "Are you kidding me? My life essence is completely different now! If I become a Celestial Maiden and then transform into a man, I'll just be lying to myself! "
Chen Chen's expression remained nonchalant. "In my eyes, the only difference between a man and a woman is the way they go to the washroom."
An Lin: "…"
As expected, this mighty figure was no ordinary person. There was no way he could communicate with him!
An Lin took a deep breath. "Forget it, I'm not ready to become a Celestial Maiden yet. I'm not going to become a Celestial Maiden even if you beat me to death!"
"So?" Chen Chen asked.
"So …" An Lin looked at the surging river before him and said, "I want to experience the most heinous punishment in this world!"
Both Chen Chen and Shangguan Yi were struck by a sense of awe upon hearing this.
"Mr. An Lin, your curse sure is vicious … To think that it would force you to do something like this." A rare expression of shock appeared on Chen Chen's face.
"An Lin … It's all my fault. It's all my fault that you're so unlucky … Waah …" Shangguan Yi took the blame for the system and apologized profusely.
An Lin was speechless. If he had known this was going to happen, he wouldn't have told her about the system's curse.
Well … it was a good way to describe the system as a curse!
Even though it was very tragic to be screwed over by the system, as long as he didn't die, he would still be able to reap a lot of rewards.
With that in mind, he arrived at the edge of the river.
"Senior Student Chen Chen, I've only entered one of the images in the river. Will I really survive if I die in there?" An Lin asked.
Chen Chen nodded upon hearing this. "You probably won't die. After all, the Heavenly Time God wanted to drag us into this river when she tried to take us down with her. She said that she's going to kill us billions of times, so she's not going to let you off so easily. "
An Lin's face convulsed upon hearing this. "This Heavenly Time God really is vicious! But this kind of viciousness actually made me feel at ease now … "
Chen Chen nodded. "You just have to activate the Void Body Mantra that I gave you at the instant of your resurrection, and you'll be able to escape from the river."
An Lin heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
In reality, the system definitely wouldn't issue a mission that required certain death, which was why he was so confident in his decision to enter the river.
He stood on the shore and looked at the river.
All of the heinous punishments in this world flashed before his eyes.
If he were to experience any of them in person, they would leave a shadow in his heart for the rest of his life.
His biggest problem now was which one to choose …
The system wanted him to die once, and he was choosing how he was going to die.
An Lin stood on the shore and looked at the river for a full ten minutes.
If there was such a thing as being skinned and having one's tendons pulled out, he would've jumped in a long time ago. The problem was that there wasn't!
All of the tortures displayed on the river were thousands of times more terrifying than being skinned and having one's tendons pulled out …
All of a sudden, he was greeted by an extremely refreshing and tranquil image.
There was sunlight and grass in the image, creating a very refreshing and natural scene.
This was a harmonious and natural scene without any torture!
"Holy f * ck! Did I just win the lottery?! "
An Lin's eyes lit up as he leaped toward the image.
It's you!
