[System prompt!] Your friend "Yun Tianzhong" has been persuaded by your friend "Yun Zhenting" and is preparing to participate in the "Hidden Dragon Ranking Selection Competition"!
[System prompt!] Your friend "Yun Zhaozhao" has been persuaded by your friend "Yun Zhenting" and is preparing to participate in the "Hidden Dragon Ranking Selection Competition"!
[System prompt!] Your friend "Yun Tiankong" has been persuaded by your friend "Yun Zhenting" and is preparing to participate in the "Hidden Dragon Ranking Selection Competition"!
[System prompt!] Your friend "Little Spirit Monkey King" has been persuaded by your friend "Yun Zhenting" and is preparing to participate in the "Hidden Dragon Ranking Selection Competition"!
Four consecutive system prompts sounded.
Hao Ren was speechless.
The situation had developed to this point, and he was powerless to stop it. So be it!
Yun Tianzhong and Yun Tiankong, and the others, if placed in a cultivation novel, would be considered "minor protagonists." He hoped they could successfully complete this "Hidden Dragon Ranking Selection Competition."
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the cave.
It shook the heavens and the earth!
The momentum was extraordinary!
What happened?
Hao Ren was greatly alarmed, and his first reaction was to cover his head and squat down...
Uh...
Immediately, Hao Ren realized that he was now a "Great Senior." Would squatting down with his head covered really suit his noble status?
Noble status my ass!
Hao Ren snorted contemptuously.
As a reclusive cultivator, preserving his dog life was the ultimate principle. Squatting down with his head covered was the most reasonable action!
While Hao Ren was thinking about random things in his mind, the system prompt sounded in his mind again.
[System prompt!] Congratulations to the host, your disciple "Liu Xiuer" has successfully achieved enlightenment. He has comprehended the supreme divine ability "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi" from the "Nine Dragon Jade Seal"... As the master of "Liu Xiuer," the host also comprehends "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi"!
As the system prompt sounded, a large amount of comprehension flooded into Hao Ren's mind.
This feeling was incredibly mysterious and magical!
Hao Ren's body trembled.
The next second, his eyes burst forth with dazzling brilliance.
Wisdom converged, radiating light!
He had comprehended "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi"!
[Divine Ability Name: Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi]
[Grade: Heaven Grade 1st Tier Divine Ability]
[Detailed Introduction: This divine ability is exclusively for individuals with the fate of a "Child of Destiny." It can absorb the luck and wishes of believers to strengthen oneself...]
Believers' luck and wishes?
Hao Ren frowned. What did this mean?
He didn't quite understand!
At this moment, the "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi" divine ability within his body began to circulate on its own.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Constant dragon roars sounded.
Phantoms of nine small golden dragons soared into the sky, coiling and circling around Hao Ren.
Immediately, a golden auspicious cloud appeared above Hao Ren's head.
The golden auspicious cloud extended numerous golden threads of luck, which then vanished into the void.
The next second, those golden threads appeared above the heads of everyone who was fanatically worshipping Hao Ren.
Among them were the most people from the Yun family.
Yun Zhenting was earnestly instructing Yun Tianzhong and the others.
"You must work hard, you must strive, you must not fail the expectations of the Senior..."
Golden threads wrapped downwards.
A red auspicious cloud appeared above Yun Zhenting's head.
This red auspicious cloud represented Yun Zhenting's luck.
Everyone's luck could be divided into five grades: white, red, yellow, purple, and cyan.
White was lowly!
Cyan was noble!
Generally speaking, those with white luck above their heads were the lowest of the low, such as hardworking farmers or street vendors...
While those with cyan luck above their heads were incredibly noble personages, at the very least a regional lord.
Besides these five colored lucks, there were two special colored lucks.
The first type was black luck.
This stuff represented death.
Once black luck appeared, it meant that the person was "doomed."
If black luck occupied the entire auspicious cloud, then congratulations, your village should prepare for a funeral feast... You would die at any moment, and even a simple walk could lead to an inexplicable fall!
The second type was golden luck.
This was truly powerful!
Golden luck was the exclusive luck of a "Child of Destiny."
A standard protagonist, incredibly awesome!
After cultivating "Nine Dragon Emperor Qi," golden luck could spread out in a spiderweb-like pattern, just like Hao Ren's.
As long as someone had fanatical faith in Hao Ren, they would be cared for by the golden threads and connected to them.
Being connected to the golden threads brought numerous benefits. It was equivalent to having the backing of a "Child of Destiny" and becoming part of the "Crown Prince's Party." You would not only be cared for by the will of heaven and earth, but your luck would also constantly upgrade...
Luck was not immutable.
Due to various factors, such as one's own efforts and being promoted by noble patrons, luck could change, either for the better or for the worse.
It had occasionally happened throughout history that individuals upgraded their luck from white to cyan.
As Hao Ren's golden luck threads penetrated the red auspicious cloud above Yun Zhenting's head, Yun Zhenting's body suddenly trembled, and a subtle change occurred in the luck above his head.
The red auspicious cloud became even more intense, with a touch of bright yellow appearing in the central core.
This was a sign of luck upgrading, about to advance from red to yellow!
This feeling made Yun Zhenting feel wonderful!
His thoughts were clear!
His mind was refreshed!
It felt amazing!
Yun Zhenting could clearly feel that the true essence within his body had become more vigorous and surging. Past confusions in his cultivation were now suddenly illuminated.
Luck worked like this. Its enhancement could not directly increase personal strength, but it could subtly and gradually make a person better!
"Senior! Thank you for your cultivation, Senior!"
Yun Zhenting had a slight realization in his heart that the miraculous changes happening to him were all brought about by Hao Ren.
Senior...
Yun Zhenting's eyes became moist.
The Senior treated him so well, he was so moved, he really wanted to cry!
While Yun Zhenting was moved, Hao Ren in the cave was overjoyed.
Such a top-tier divine ability as "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi" was certainly not just for "learning from Lei Feng" or "doing good deeds." The golden threads formed a "luck network." On one hand, it could enhance the luck of believers, and more importantly, it could absorb the luck and wishes of believers to continuously strengthen Hao Ren's cultivation.
[System prompt!] Congratulations to the host, your friend "Yun Zhenting" has a fervent faith in you. "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi" has absorbed a massive amount of luck and wishes from him, and your cultivation has increased by +10086!
Admittedly, Yun Zhenting, as Hao Ren's "number one fanboy," was very supportive, contributing a massive amount of cultivation to Hao Ren right from the start.
Hao Ren's cultivation surged, and he showed signs of breaking through from the "Foundation Establishment Early Stage" to the "Foundation Establishment Middle Stage."
At this moment, more luck and wishes were converging towards Hao Ren through the "luck network" formed by the golden threads.
[System prompt!] Congratulations to the host, your friend "Yun Tianzhong" has a fervent faith in you. "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi" has absorbed a massive amount of luck and wishes from him, and your cultivation has increased by +9999!
[System prompt!] Congratulations to the host, your friend "Yun Tiankong" has a fervent faith in you. "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Qi" has absorbed a massive amount of luck and wishes from him, and your cultivation has increased by +6666!
