Missions, Future

Guihu Luixing slept for almost twenty four hours.

When he woke up, he felt completely refreshed. More than that, he never felt better. He could feel power cursing through his body. He tried sensin Qi again.

His body was used to Qi already, so he didn't have the same experience he had when he was breaking through. It was much more subdued.

*Piron*

[Would you like to hear the explanation of the system's features.]

This message interrupted Guihu Luixing's self examination.

'Yes.'

[System Basic Functions

The system's basic functions exist in order to aid the Agent of Fate in guiding the [Fated] to reach unprecedented levels of strength, strength that will be necessary in order to defeat the Trial Beast.

The basic functions consists of four menus: Upcoming Opportunities, Fated Status, Subordinates and Storage.]

'What do each of these menus do?'

[Upcoming Opportunities show a list of nearby events that are fated to happen soon like the birth of a heavenly treasure or the opening of a tomb or inheritance. These opportunities are very dangerous and usually are a great way to empower [Fated].

Fated Status show the current condition of every [Fated] you used you Fate Agent Eyes on. You will be able to see things like their capabilities, what they need to breakthrough and their areas of talent.

Subordinates menu is where you can create, manage and invite subordinates to be agents. Agents, like you have some immunity in Fate's backlash. They will also receive some minor systems to aid them. This feature will be very important, as you can't possibly be everywhere. But be careful, if the Trial Beast manages to catch a subordinate, they will be able to find your identity.

Storage is a function to store objects similar to normal storing treasures. However, it won't be detected by formations or by any experts' senses. Unlike normal storage device, it can be stolen, sealed or broken.]

A lot of information was suddenly dumped on Guihu Luixing. It was so much stuff he didn't even know where to start.

[Host, you will have ample time to test these features later. It's advised for you to first check the manual you recently acquired and mastering the usage of you Fate Agent Eyes.]

Guihu Luixing followed the system's advice and started "reading" through the Deep Qi Immersion Manual he had in his mind.

It was a very long book that was very detailed. In short, it made one feel again the experience they felt when they broke through, that usually is the moment when someone unconsciously controlled Qi the best. That means that, combined with the Six Senses Method, that had the most powerful and meaningful breakthrough,he would have an extremely fine control over Qi.

Naturally, such powerful combination was not without drawbacks. Every time Guihu Luixing experienced that, he would again be in a trance, making him extremely vulnerable. Also, if during these sessions for any reason his control is disturbed, the uncontrolled Qi could cause fatal damage to him.

But for Guihu Luixing, the genius child of the headmaster of the Ghost Fox Valley Sect, these risks were a minimum. He was in a very safe place.

Guihu Luixing then tried the Fate Agent Eyes. The Qi in his surroundings started conveying the information they had from fate. However, even after using it he felt no difference.

'System, am I doing something wrong?'

[Host, the Fate Agent Eyes only works on living beings, treasures and special locations. Try looking at your beast partner.]

After hearing that he look at Dark Moon. She looked nothing like the usual Dark Moon.

She looked a vibrant green with an occasional golden glimmering spots.

Even though he had never used the Fate Agent Eyes before, he already had the manual in his mind. When he thought why she looked like that, he immediately found an answer in his mind.

She was a [Pillar] that's why she was green. And the occasional golden glimmering spots were proof that she had some potential to become a [Fated].

Guihu Luixing was surprised. He didn't expect Dark Moon to be a green [Pillar]. This meant she meant to spur the growth of others with support and positive influence.

Based on Dark Moon's spoiled personality, Guihu Luixing never expected she had such role and potential to her. He was pleasantly surprised.

[Host. Now that you can finally interact with Qi. It's high time for you to start making ay least some planning.]

'Yes. As I am to train and guide [Fated] I certainly need many things I don't have right now. In fact, there are so many things I don't even know where to start.'

[Helping and guiding you to accomplish you goals is the function of the system.]

*Piron*

[You have received two new missions. Do you want to see them now?]

'Yes.'

[Mission N. 7: Leadership

Mission N. 8: Fade in the shadows]

Guihu Luixing unhesitatingly checked each of them.

[Mission N. 7 Leadership

ln the future, leadership will be undoubtedly become a skill essential for you. [Fated] can have very troublesome personalities and can dislike tp work as a group. The Trial Beast cannot be defeated alone, however. Gain experience as a leader in three years. The greater the group you lead, the greater their performance and greater obedience, the greater the reward.

Reward: (???)

Punishment: N/A

Time limit: Three years]

'Leadership.'

Certainly, leadership was something he needed, but as a five year old, how could he gather experience in leadership?

[I can't help you that far, Host. I can only show you the general direction. You have to creathe the path yourself, or else the Trial is meaningless.]

That's also true. As the champion specifically made to represent the will of the universe in the Trial, it would lose any meaning if he were to walk a path set by others.

He then checked the other mission.

[Mission N. 8 Fade in the Shadows

If the Ghost Fox Valley Sect, a middle rank Sect, on a Middle Rank Constellation on a High Rank Galaxy, suddenly rises to power without any reason, the Trial Beast will know instantly that the Agent of Fate come from this sect, and will use it against you. You need to create a secretive organisation to move for you and make it so that no one would link your identities. The sooner the better.

Reward: Headquarters

Punishment: Trial Fail

Time limit: 5 years.]

This mission was even more demanding the the previous one. He also didn't have much time. Five years would pass in a blink of an eye. While that was true, it's not like he could do much right now, so he decided to focus in what he could do.

'Cultivate.'

Strength! He needed strength. People will follow those who are strong. If youbl are strong, even if you are young, you can make people listen to you. They will want your protection in exchange fpr their services.

Without strength he wouldn't be able to achieve none of these mission's objectives.

'In nearly a month, there will be a competition right? Every Mortal Distancing Great Realm disciple needs to participate. It'll be a great chance to acquire prestige and further power, after all, there's also the reward father promised. But I need to break through two realms. There's no time.'

Wasting no time , Guihu Luixing sat in a lotus position before saying to Dark Moon.

"Dark Moon, I'll try to participate in the competition one month from now. I'm sorry but I won't have time to play with you these days."

Immediately after, he started to cultivate. The qui started to bexome very active around him. His figure becoming increasingly distorted, as if his image was emiting a terrible heat.

He was just a Qi Interaction Realm entry stage cultivator, but could already control so much Qi. The benefit of the Six Senses Method was evident.

Dark Moon was honestly shocked. Guihu Luixing had just woke up, spend a couple of minutes checking his body. Then started to stare at nothingness making many faces. And now he decided to cultivate like a maniac.

While Dark Moon didn't understand what could have led him to act like this, she knew he would be dedicating most of his waking time to cultivation. If she didn't put some effort, she would be left behind.

Immediately she left, running for the library.
