As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Wang Chong once again heard the mechanical, emotionless voice:
【God helps those who help themselves. Only those who control their own destiny will be favored by destiny. In a normal world, once the host dies, the Stone of Destiny can only help the host gain a year of life. Only by gathering enough Destiny Energy can the host extend their lifespan and at the same time resist the world's restraint and complete their mission!】
Following this voice, light and shadow intertwined before Wang Chong suddenly saw his own soul. It was a fragmented soul, as if thousands of fragments were pieced together.
And between these fragments, there was a strange energy. It was this energy that was like threads, piecing his soul together and showing signs of healing.
"So that's how it is …"
The sight of that shattered soul made Wang Chong's heart fill with bitterness. All of a sudden, he was sure that he had really died once. These fragmented soul fragments were the best proof.
No wonder the voice said that he only had a year to live!
【Warning: The first World's Restraint will come in the first month after the host awakens. Remaining days: 9 days.】
【Warning: The World's Restraint will severely harm the host's body and soul, and greatly reduce the host's lifespan until the host dies. And if the host successfully resists the World's Restraint, the host's body will be strengthened every time he successfully resists it! At the same time, his lifespan will be slightly extended!】
【Warning: The first time you resist the World's Restraint, you will consume 20 Destiny Energy. Currently, the host has 50 Destiny Energy!】
…
A series of warnings rang in his mind, and following the mechanical, emotionless voice, a series of new information flowed into Wang Chong's mind.
Looking at the information in his mind, Wang Chong sat on the edge of his bed and fell into deep thought.
Reversing space-time did not seem as simple as he had imagined.
Although the mysterious' Stone of Destiny 'possessed powerful and unimaginable space-time abilities, it seemed that reversing space-time also consumed a large amount of its energy.
And for the rest, he could only rely on himself.
Moreover, wanting to change the fate of a world was far more difficult than he had imagined. To this world, he was a pure outsider, an 'enemy' of the world.
Therefore, other than facing the 'enemies' of fate, he might also have to face the enemy 'world'. It was either succeed or die trying!
That was what all this information had been trying to tell him in another dimension.
On this "path", there was no turning back!
This was the price the Stone of Destiny had mentioned.
Fortunately, the Stone of Destiny also pointed out a direction. Every time he survived the World Restriction, or rather, the punishment, his body would strengthen a little.
Perhaps when he was strong enough, he would be able to completely ignore the shackles of the world.
This was his only hope!
"Although I don't know what the World Shackles will be like, if I only need 20 Destiny Energy to resist it, I'll be able to defeat it. Then I have enough here. I wonder, what can I do with the remaining 30 points of Destiny Energy? "
Buzz! As this thought flashed through Wang Chong's mind, the scene before him changed again.
In the boundless darkness, the Stone of Destiny suddenly disappeared, and five orbs of light appeared in front of Wang Chong.
"Heart, Body, Qi, Technique, Power!"
As soon as he saw the five orbs of light, Wang Chong suddenly understood what they meant.
"The Five Great Schools of Martial Arts, Heart, Qi, Technique, and Power." These five orbs of light represented the five main elements of martial arts.
"Heart" represented "Conviction."
"Body" represented "Body Tempering Technique."
"Qi" represented "Vitality" that existed everywhere in the world.
"Technique" represented the "moves" and "spells" of an attack.
"Power" represented "Luck", "Momentum", and "Overall Momentum"!
…
On the path of martial arts, not only did one need a strong conviction, one also needed a strong body, boundless Vitality, profound techniques, and the Luck of Heaven and Earth!
"When the time comes, the world will lend its strength, but when the time comes, the hero will not be free." This was something that Wang Chong understood very well in his previous life.
"So the use of Destiny Energy is actually related to the Five Great Schools of Martial Arts? These five balls of light represent five different types of rewards! "
Wang Chong suddenly understood.
Among the five orbs of light, the three highest level "Qi", "Technique", and "Power" were all in a gray state. It was obvious that they were still in a sealed state.
Only the two orbs of light that represented "Heart" and "Body" were still in a bright state.
"Conviction" was useless to the current Wang Chong. Only the Body Tempering Technique was what Wang Chong really needed. With a thought, Wang Chong sent a portion of his consciousness into the second orb of light.
"Weng!"
In the next moment, a bright light appeared in front of Wang Chong.
[Destiny Exchange: Root Bone]
[Destiny Exchange: Blood Change! Change the Martial Artist's Talent (Sealed State)]
…
"Blood Change? There's actually such a thing? "
Wang Chong looked at the second line and was very surprised. However, with a tap of his right hand, he opened the [Root Bone] column without hesitation.
[Root Bone: Panther Bone Level 1]
[Destiny Energy: 25 points]
…
"This is it!"
Upon seeing this, Wang Chong chuckled.
Even though he had chosen to cultivate the 'Dragon Bone Art', he needed to reach the pinnacle of the Dragon Bone Art in order to bring out its effects and convert it into Dragon Bones.
Furthermore, before successfully cultivating the Dragon Bone Art, his root bone was still zero. He hadn't even reached the lowest level, Panther Bone.
However, if he could obtain the help of the Destiny Stone and possess the Panther Bone, even if it was just the most basic 1-dan, it would be of great help to him. It would save him a lot of time in cultivating the Dragon Bone Art.
To the current him, this was undoubtedly the best and most helpful option.
"Weng!"
With a tap of his finger, Wang Chong chose to exchange it. In the next moment, a dot of light shot out. Hualala, a warm energy gushed down layer by layer like a tidal wave, gushing into Wang Chong's body.
Closing his eyes, Wang Chong allowed the hot spring like energy to seep into his muscles, blood vessels, and bones. Kachacha, a series of crackling sounds echoed from the depths of his bones. It was as though boiling molten metal had been injected into Wang Chong's bones, and in a short period of time, they were swiftly strengthened.
"What immense energy. To think that it could alter a martial artist's bones and tendons despite the passage of time!"
Opening his arms wide, Wang Chong felt as though there was an inexhaustible amount of energy flowing through his body. Compared to before, his strength had clearly grown significantly.
To think that the energy of destiny would allow him to reach the 'Panther Bone' realm without the need to cultivate for a long period of time, this was inconceivable!
The hot spring like energy continued to flow into his body, and when the last strand of energy disappeared, Wang Chong realized that his cultivation realm had risen by a level, reaching Tier 4 and a half.
In terms of the toughness of his root bone, he was no different from those Origin Energy Tier 9 and Panther Bone realm martial artists!
Even though he hadn't reached Origin Energy Tier 5 yet, in terms of pure strength, even Origin Energy Tier 5 martial artists wouldn't be a match for him.
"I'm only left with five Destiny Energy points. I probably won't be able to exchange for anything else."
After his cultivation realm rose by a level, Wang Chong was in a good mood. Since he couldn't do anything with the remaining five Destiny Energy, Wang Chong decided to leave them for the time being.
As for the remaining twenty Destiny Energy, Wang Chong had to keep them to deal with the 'world punishment', which he had no idea what it was.
"Un? Battle armor? Destiny Struggler! "
After exchanging for the 'Panther Bone', Wang Chong suddenly noticed a change in the second ball of light. A simple yet elegant crimson battle armor appeared in Wang Chong's vision.
The moment he saw it, Wang Chong immediately knew its name. 'Destiny Struggler'!
This was a set of Title Armor!
"80 Destiny Energy, this isn't something I can satisfy at the moment!"
Seeing the exorbitant amount of Destiny Energy required to exchange for this crimson battle armor, Wang Chong could only shake his head. He only had five Destiny Energy to spare at the moment, and he was still far from being able to exchange for this' Destiny Struggler '.
After exiting from the 'Body Tempering Category' reward, Wang Chong couldn't help but turn his gaze to the first ball of light floating in the endless darkness beside the Stone of Destiny.
'Heart' represented 'faith' and 'faith'. As the saying goes, attacking the heart is better than attacking the city. 'Heart' couldn't strengthen a martial artist's physique, nor could it increase a martial artist's strength. However, it was the most important of the Five Great Martial Arts Sects.
Of the Five Great Martial Arts Sects, the state of the heart was the most unique. It was in a half-sealed state.
Wang Chong sent a portion of his consciousness into the ball of light. Then, within the half-sealed ball of light, Wang Chong saw a few unexpected words:
【Sense of Mission】
These three words were dark and gloomy, and other than that, there was no other information.
"I understand now."
Looking at these three words, Wang Chong went silent for a long time, then exited his mind.
After everything was over, Wang Chong sat on the edge of his bed, crossed his hands on his forehead, and calmly pondered.
The appearance of the Stone of Destiny was something that couldn't be found in the historical records. There were too many things that he needed to think about.
For example, what was the origin of the Stone of Destiny? What was the purpose of its existence? What benefits would it gain from helping me?
Moreover, that mechanical, emotionless voice gave Wang Chong a very strange feeling. The way it presented itself was also very strange. It didn't seem like something that should exist in this world, but rather something from another space-time, something that originated from the world's' Artificial Intelligence '.
Wang Chong could only guess that perhaps because his soul came from a different space-time, the Stone of Destiny chose to communicate with him in a way that he was more familiar with.
But no matter what the reason was, there were a few things that Wang Chong could be sure of:
First, any fate that went against the laws of nature would be restricted and restricted by the world. Therefore, this matter was very risky for him, but it also had benefits.
His promotion to Panther Bone was enough to prove this.
Second, in order to avoid the rejection and restriction from the world, he needed to obtain a large amount of Destiny Energy. And Destiny Energy could only be obtained by changing fate and saving the world.
On the other hand, although the Stone of Destiny didn't mention it, Wang Chong could deduce that the greater the change he made to this world, the greater the rejection he would receive from this world in the future.
In other words, he needed to obtain more Destiny Energy to survive in this world.
"To receive the crown, one must bear its weight! Whether my lifespan in this world is one year or four years, as long as I can fulfill my long-cherished wish and change the fate of this world, I don't care about anything else! "
