Systemless Villain

Chapter 131 A Villain’s Awakening

Chapter 131 A Villain's Awakening

[Destiny Villain System activated. Congratulations to the host for transmigrating into this world]

The young man's eyes widened in disbelief as the holographic display flickered to life before him. Yet, a wicked grin slowly etched itself across his face.

"Hahahaha, of course! How could there be transmigration without a system? And it's a villain system? Explain it to me!" he said eagerly, unable to contain his excitement.

[I am the Destiny Villain System, and I shall assist the host in becoming an unparalleled villain]

[What you need to do is quite simple. Steal and cut off the protagonist's opportunities, and humiliate them to earn villain points that you can exchange at the system store]

Upon hearing the system explanation, he understood. Although he hadn't expected to become a villain, it was better than having no system at all.

[You have a beginner's gift, do you want to open it?]

"What? Open it!" he exclaimed immediately.

[Opening beginner's gift]

[Congratulations, you have obtained a high-level understanding talent]

[Congratulations, you have obtained 1000 profound level spiritual stones]

[Congratulations, you have obtained an S-Class martial spirit: Gilgamesh]

[Congratulations, you have obtained a glimpse of future memories]

[Congratulations, you have obtained a divine weapon; Mjolnir]

Reading the hologram sequence, the young man was stunned. It was hard to believe all of this was just a beginner's gift.

[Do you want to extract everything?]

"Of course!" he exclaimed eagerly.

[Extraction initiated; you may experience dizziness]

With the disappearance of the holograms, an excruciating headache washed over him, forcing him to collapse onto the bed, unable to endure the pain.

Meanwhile, back at the Wudang Sect, Long Tian and his companions had arrived at the Soul Hall after ascending the towering stairs shrouded in clouds. This sacred space stood as the sect's second-highest pinnacle.

Before them loomed a massive gate, guarded by eight spear-wielding sentinels.

"Do you possess the tokens?" inquired one of the guards.

Long Tian and his companions promptly displayed their tokens. The guard scrutinized each one before nodding in approval.

"You have one hour," he said.

"Thank you," Lu Feng acknowledged respectfully.

With those words, the gate swung open, revealing a grand chamber adorned with opulent white marble.

Stepping inside, they found themselves in what felt like a giant's abode. Even the pillars that supported the structure were of monumental proportions, reaching towards the lofty ceiling.

"Finally! I can upgrade the quality of my martial spirit, hehe, I can't miss this!" One of them said, and immediately went off to explore the Soul Hall. Lu Feng and the others did the same.

Amidst their excitement, Long Tian remained composed. He understood the profound advantages of entering the Soul Hall. This place was saturated with profound Reiki, an incredibly rare and precious resource. This was because the mountain upon which the Soul Hall was founded had been the impact site of a meteor that brought Reiki to this world tens of thousands of years ago.

To be within this space, absorbing the profound Reiki, had the potential to enhance one's martial spirit's quality, perhaps even elevating it to a higher class, such as from B to A.

Long Tian strolled amidst the grandeur, where there were hundreds, even thousands, of statues of varying sizes in this place.

His perceptive eyes roaming the area until they settled upon a golden dragon statue. Approaching it, he sensed an uncanny connection.

The sculpture's intricate details triggered a sense of deja vu. It bore a striking resemblance to the original form of the dragon woman he had once encountered in the realm of dragons.

"Perhaps something within me will awaken if I absorb this profound Reiki," he mused, a grin playing on his lips.

With those words, he assumed a seated position before the dragon statue, immersing himself in the profound Reiki emanating from the sculpture.

Meanwhile, inside a luxurious villa in Shanghai, a young man stirred from his slumber, his head throbbing with an intense ache.

[Extraction successful; certain items you received have been stored in the system storage]

A self-satisfied smirk played upon his lips as he beheld the holographic projection before him.

Through the newfound memories, he now understood the perilous world he had entered. It was a world teeming with ferocious beasts, cultivation, monstrous creatures, and martial spirits.

Before transmigrating, he was just an ordinary factory worker who worked overtime but was always paid below the minimum wage.

He died by suicide and found himself in the body of a young man named Zhou Jun.

Through those memories, he was the young master of the Zhou family, a genius from one of the ancient families.

"Status window," he uttered, his voice calm yet resolute.

In an instant, a holographic interface materialized before him.

[Name: Zhou Jun]

[Age: 18 years]

[Cultivation Base: Flowing Qi level 3]

[Martial Spirit: S-Class: Gilgamesh, B-Class: Blood Spider]

[Task-]

Zhou Jun's gaze lingered on the hologram, his satisfaction evident. In this world, his fate had taken a drastically different turn; he was a prodigious young master of the Zhou family, unmatched by his peers.

Yet, a singular question plagued his thoughts. "System, are there no tasks assigned to me?" he inquired, his curiosity piqued.

[For now, no protagonists have been detected. The system will promptly notify the host if a protagonist emerges]

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jun nodded in understanding. If there were no protagonists in sight, he could bide his time.

Nevertheless, a mischievous glint danced in his eyes. "I will kill every protagonist that appears and become the strongest in this world!"

Time flowed swiftly, and within the span of 30 minutes, it slipped away unnoticed.

Inside the Soul Hall, nine figures occupied the space. Among them, five were part of Long Tian's entourage, while the remaining four was another disciples.

Long Tian remained in a meditative posture, his eyes sealed shut. Within the ocean of his consciousness, dragon wings materialized in his spectral manifestation. At the same time, in his physical form, a crimson dragon head symbol took shape on his forehead.

Simultaneously, the blood cells within his body seemed to undergo a transformation, evolving from what they were before into something entirely new; a pure dragon's blood.

The energy within him surged, and a profound sense of power enveloped his being.

In his dantian, the nebula expanded, giving birth to new stars. Simultaneously, the dragon's silhouette seemed to soar across the galaxy. Each flap of its wings caused the stars around it to shine brighter.

Every second passed, and the dragon soared higher, causing his spectral manifestation to undergo further transformations.

However, all of these processes were abruptly shattered.

Bang!

He was forcefully pulled back into his physical form, crashing into a pillar until it cracked.

"Cough!" Long Tian coughed, blood trickling from his mouth. His expression was filled with agony, as if his very soul had been forcibly ripped from his body.

He looked up and saw a familiar figure clenching his fists.

"You took everything from me!"
