"Shidi, is it time for you heavenly tribulation?"
"En." Ruan Siyao replied.
Ruan Siyao has reached the highest level a cultivator can go. Now, all that is left for Ruan Siyao to do is to go through the heavenly tribulation to ascend to Heaven to become an immortal cultivator.
Ruan Siyao was wearing his blue robes and he sat crossed legged at the edge of the mountain. Clouds started to form above him while he focused on spreading his Qi towards his dantians. A drop of sweat dropped from concentration. Suddenly, a lightning bolt hit Ruan Siyao, causing him to wince. Then, several more bolts of lightning came down all at the same time!
"Fuck!" Ruan Siyao screamed as a mouthful of blood came out of his mouth.
Ruan Siyao's vision turned dark as he passed out on the foot of the mountain.

"Where am I?" Ruan Siyao asked as he looked around.
He was standing in a completely white room.
[You are in the system space host.] A bored voice said.
"Whose there?!" Ruan Siyao shouted as he released his ice sword and looked around.
[Dumbass. I'm in your mind.]
Ruan Siyao frowned and replied, "What exactly is a system?"
[Why did I have to get such a stupid host? If my host is this stupid already, then I can't imagine how horrendous it will be when I have to explain magic and technology such as cars and phones to him. I do not get paid enough for this shit.] The system rudely muttered.
"Hey! I heard that!"
[Good. Anyways, I am an artificial intelligence. My official name is side character counterattack system otherwise known as System 002. The main system sent me here to offer you a deal. You will be sent to different worlds to complete missions as a side character. There are different ranks of worlds ranging from S rank to E rank. If you receive an average score of C at the end, you will be able to go back to your original world. As a gift from me, I will give you immunity to the heaven tribulation, meaning you will be able to pass the test and become an immortal cultivator.] System 002 stated.
"Hmm. Alright. What world are we going to first?"
[The world and rank of the world where host travels to will be randomly chosen.] System 002 said.
"Oh, okay. Then let's go." Ruan Siyao replied.

"Rong Chinxi, please have mercy on me."
"Kill him." Rong Chinxi lazily ordered with a bored tone as he sipped his wine on his diamond throne.
"Aaaaah!" The man screamed as he was dragged away to the dungeons.
Rong Chinxi rolled his eyes. To him, those righteous cultivators were so annoying. They always send members of their righteous sect to defeat him but they never succeeded. Just then, the door to the throne room busted open. The man who entered had sweat dripping down his face and he was breathing hard.
After a few seconds, the man took in a deep breath before saying, "Lord Rong Chinxi, Cultivator Ruan Siyao has died from his heavenly tribulation."
The Demon Cultivator Rong Chinxi looked at his subordinate in shock, "What?"
Black smoke started to form around him as he growled out with his red eyes narrowing, "Ruan! Siyao! After promising you will marry when I was only 4 years old, you dare die?!"
He stormed out of the room in anger. He did not realize he was crying until he arrived in his personal room.
"Damn it!" Rong Chinxi shouted as he wiped away his tears.
[Hi!!!] A random voice excitedly exclaimed.
"Whose there!?" Rong Chinxi asked as he surveyed the room.
He frowned. He could not sense anyone in the room. What was going on?
[I'm in your mind!] The voice said again.
"Who are you?"
[I am your system. I was assigned to you by the main system after high levels of regret and dark energy was detected. The main system thinks that you could possibly pose a threat to this world and before you could blacken into a villain, the system assigned you with me: The Soulmate Chasing System. You may call me System 001. Do you wish to bind with me as my host?] System 001 said happily.
Rong Chinxi smirked, "Heh. Sure."
