[Host: Gu Xian.]
[Gender: Male.]
[Age: Six.]
[Innate Soul Power: None.]
[Martial Soul: Ordinary Scythe.]
[Background of Transmigration: Orphaned and Fatherless.]
Looking at the information on the system panel, Gu Xian's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Wow.
A definite sky-crushing start.
What the hell is going on!
One moment he was staying up late reading a novel, and the next he'd traveled through time.
And he'd traveled to Douluo Continent.
The most outrageous thing was that he'd traveled straight through time and become an orphan in Holy Soul Village.
Like the kid next door, he was only six years old.
There was a standard system for time travelers.
But he'd just checked it.
This damn system was empty except for an information panel.
Where was the cheat code?
Where was the newbie gift pack?
Where was the awesome spirit?
Where was the invincible start and the peak of life?
Why the hell was there nothing!
And with his ordinary sickle spirit, he had no time to think about cultivating it.
It was just good enough to harvest wheat during the autumn harvest.
What's more, he had no innate spirit power, so it seemed impossible to cultivate.
"What the hell is this system for?"
Gu Xian couldn't help but grumble.
[Ding!]
[This system is called the Infinite Random System. A new system will be randomly assigned to the host every month.]
[The system is valid for one month, and a new round of random assignments will automatically begin upon expiration.]
[The functions and effects of the new systems are all random and different.]
Just then, a beautiful female voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Hiss!"
Gu Xian gasped.
So you can talk.
"System, why didn't you say anything just now?"
[Ding! Host, you didn't ask?]
Gu Xian: "."
This statement seemed perfectly reasonable, because he hadn't asked.
Recalling the system's introduction, Gu Xian quickly understood.
The gist was that a new system would be assigned every month.
Each system is different, so the effects are naturally different.
[Ding!]
[Would you like to start the first random system?]
[Once confirmed, this cannot be canceled, and the randomized system cannot be changed. You can only try again after the one-month period has expired.]
"Confirmed!"
"Start randomizing!"
Gu Xian answered without hesitation.
Whether a system is good or not will only be known after the randomization is complete.
[Ding!]
[The first system has started randomizing. Please wait!]
[Progress: 1%, 20%, 50%, 99%, 100%!]
[New system has been randomized successfully!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Demon Contract System!]
"Demon Contract System?"
Gu Xian frowned slightly.
"What is the function of the Demon Contract System?"
[Ding! [The host can choose any object and sign a contract with the devil. Successful signing will reward the host accordingly.]
[The higher the quality of the object, the greater the reward.]
Gu Xian nodded. It sounded promising.
"Anything will do?"
[Host's answer: Yes!]
Thinking of this, Gu Xian picked up a rusty, broken hoe nearby.
"System, contract this hoe!"
[Ding!]
[Demon contract signed successfully!]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving a Silver Soul Coin!]
The hoe in his hand vanished.
It was as if it had evaporated, leaving no trace.
"Holy crap?!"
The next second, Gu Xian exclaimed.
A Silver Soul Coin?
A broken hoe in exchange for a Silver Soul Coin! If he were to use some good stuff to sign a contract with the devil, the rewards would be unimaginable!
Gu Xian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.
"I like this system!"
He looked around, then scratched his head awkwardly.
Because his previous incarnation was an orphan, the place he lived in was quite shabby.
Even that broken hoe he had just picked up was something someone else had discarded.
There was nothing good enough to sign a contract with.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Gu Xian put away the silver soul coin in his hand and went to open it.
According to his fused memories, the original owner had a rather withdrawn personality.
Even with a peer from the same village, he had little to say.
Who would come knocking on his door?
Gu Xian opened the door, and outside stood an old man leaning on a cane.
It was Old Jack, the village chief of Holy Soul Village.
Tomorrow was the annual Spirit Awakening Ceremony.
Gu Xian was already six years old, and Old Jack had come to inform him.
Old Jack handed Gu Xian a package.
"Gu Xian, take this food."
"Tomorrow, the deacon from the Notting City Spirit Hall will come to help the children in our village awaken their spirits."
"I'll pick you up then."
Gu Xian was a little surprised. His timing was so perfect?
Just traveled through time today, and awakened his spirit tomorrow.
Wouldn't that mean he'd have to witness the little punk awakening the Blue Silver Grass?
Well-versed in the plot of Douluo Continent, he naturally had no fondness for Tang San.
But on the surface, his expression remained unchanged.
He simply nodded slightly.
"Ah~"
Old Jack shook his head softly, then turned and left.
Gu Xian, this child, had lost his parents since childhood.
He had grown up relying on the villagers' support for all these years.
Even his personality was different from his peers.
Awakening his martial soul tomorrow might be his only chance to change his fate.
Watching Old Jack walk away, Gu Xian closed the door.
He'd awaken his martial soul tomorrow, and he'd only just figured out his system.
His strength hadn't improved at all.
His martial soul was already known; it was just an ordinary sickle.
His innate soul power was still at level zero.
What's the point of awakening this guy?
[Ding! [Newbie Quest Triggered!]
[Sign a Contract between Tang San and the Devil!]
[Quest Rewards:]
[1. The host will share Tang San's full Innate Soul Power equally!]
[2. After the Spirit Awakening is complete, the host's Spirit will evolve into—Shadow Scythe!]
Wow, signing a contract between Tang San and the Devil?
This actually works!
Tang San is a living being.
Gu Xian was instantly delighted, but then another question occurred to him.
"System, what will happen to Tang San after signing a contract with the Devil?"
If Tang San simply vanished like that hoe just now,
His father would be crushed to pieces by the Holy Spirit Village.
[Ding!]
[Signing a contract with the Devil will cost Tang San a year of his life! [Host, please don't worry. Tang San may just be slightly weak.]
Only a year?
Gu Xian nodded. That reassured him.
Just don't die immediately.
"Then how do we sign a demonic contract with him?"
[Ding!]
[It's the same with anything. All we need to do is make contact with it and send a command to the system.]
A subtle smile curved Gu Xian's lips.
Since that was the case, he was "forced" to trick Tang San.
This is a new book of the same genre by the author. If you're interested, take a look.
