Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 170 - Loosing Time



[Insufficient Fate Points.]

Ye Tian Yun stared at the System prompt for a good long five minutes before even thinking about anything to say.

In the end, surprisingly he didn't start another rant but said, "I should have expected this, raised my hopes for nothing."

[Host, the question you ask is related to your fate, there is no way the System can reveal the answer without you sacrificing loads of Fate Points.]

"How many fate points do I need?"

[Host needs One Thousand Fate Points]

"That's a lot… one thousand… I don't know when I will accumulate this many..  when will I get to know the answers on Chaos Qi…"

[No, Host, you don't need One Thousand Kill Points to know about the Chaos Qi cultivation method. You need One Thousand Fate Points to know how many Fate Points you need to get to know about the Chaos Qi Cultivation method.]

"What in the world- what kind of crazy price is that? You are really gonna ask for One Thousand Kill points just so I can be eligible to know the answer? Why don't you just say you don't want to tell me…?"

[Host, System is here to help you in the quest for the Emblems and Tokens, but that doesn't mean it will give you a shortcut to your goal. System does not have this power. At least not yet.]

[Also, you won't lose those One Thousand Fate Points, but rather, it's just how much you need to get the answer. System won't take those fate points from you.]

Ye Tian Yun squinted his eyes in suspicion, "Is this your new scheme to loot me?"

[System will get nothing from looting the Host.]

"Then why do you ask for so high Fate Points and Kill Points?"

[System has the power to know the answers. But it doesn't know the answer beforehand. The Fate Points are mainly for the System to see the answer to the Host's questions.]

Still, with the same expression of suspicion, Ye Tian Yun said, "Most of the Fate Points… so you keep the remaining part to yourself? Hmm?"

[,,,]

Shaking his head, Ye Tian Yun continued, "System, looks like there's no point in asking you about the cultivation technique from my universe. Why don't you tell me about the cultivation technique that you just showed me in the shop? What was it called?"

[Nine Heavens Chaotic Matra]

[Allows the cultivator who practices this art to make his physical body and the soul compatible with the Chaos Qi. Then, the cultivator is able to cultivate the Chaos Qi once his physical form is ready. Once the physical form is ready, this mantra then helps in the flow of the Chaos Qi through the body of the cultivator.]

[This method then helps to increase the cultivation at a very fast speed, depending on the ability of the new physical body or form. The Chaos Qi is not treated as an impurity by the body if it's cultivated after practicing this cultivation art.]

[Cost: 9 Million Kill Points]

Looking at the description and the price, Ye Tian Yun asked, "System, can you at least tell me  how effective the cultivation technique is in our universe as opposed to this method?"

[Cultivation method to cultivate the Chaos Qi in this universe is one of the very best that has ever come into existence.]

[Nine Heavens Chaotic Matra is just an average cultivation technique compared to the Cultivation method of this universe]

Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh when he heard those words, "So, you're trying to say that Shi Yan's plot armor is literally one of the best things in the world?"

"I have a feeling that Shi Yan's cultivation technique was somehow more valuable than the token and emblems. System, can that be true?"

[No, Host. The Tokens and Emblems are supreme artifacts even in other universes. Although the cultivation technique is indeed quite interesting and somewhat valuable, it's not much more than the Tokens and Emblems.]

[Host should not forget that the main strength of this Cultivation technique is also its main weakness.]

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head, "I can understand what you're trying to convey. The cultivation manual is written based on Chaos Qi, and it helps in cultivating this qi. Thus, increasing the overall cultivation speed of the one who practices this technique. But there's one problem - Chaos Qi is not easy to find. This cultivation technique is wasted if there's no Chaos Qi, no matter how valuable it is."

"This reminds me… System, do you have any guess how Shi Yan was able to cultivate or sometimes even control the Chaos Qi wherever he went?"

[Insufficient Fate Points to know the answer]

Ye Tian Yun let out a breath and asked, "I didn't ask you to look for an answer; I just asked for a guess."

[Host, System thinks that the answer is simple, Shi Yan had an Emblem, Chao Emblem.]

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "That's impossible. There can't be two same emblems at once. Chaos Emblem was in possession of my Father, and Shi Yan never had this emblem."

"You should know about this. I am surprised by your guess."

[Host, I do remember your Father admitting to the fact there he had the Chaos Emblem in his possession. However, he just said it; he didn't prove himself. And System does not believe in his words without witnessing the Chaos Emblem in his possession, which it never did.]

Ye Tian Yun had a weird expression on his face, "You are kidding me, right? He is my Father and the Ruler of the Middle Heavens; why do you think he will even need to prove himself?"

[...]

"His words are law, how could anyone question him? Doubting his words is no different from asking for early death." Ye Tian Yun shook his head as he finished his words.

Taking a deep breath, he then said, "Also, if he did possess the Chaos Emblem, it would have already been known to everyone through his ability over the Chaos Qi. Not to mention the fact that he was a part of the God's Legion, where almost all the members either had tokens or emblems. But it was never proved that he had Chaos Emblem."

"And from the attention that God's Legion got, there was no way that Shi Yan having the Chaos Emblem could remain hidden from everyone."

"Let's assume that it was a tightly kept secret. But there was no way Shi Yan didn't tell about the token to his God's Legion brothers whom he trusted with his life. However, they had no knowledge about this."

"Remember Jiang Chen, whom I killed for the Token Of Life? I tortured that guy so much that he was begging for his life. And he even gave me major secrets of the God's Legion. And it was his words that assured me that Shi Yan did not have Chaos Emblem."

"That Jiang Chen had quoted, 'Shi Yan is the only member in the God's Legion who is considered a member but does not possess any Token or Emblem."

[Host, that's just his words. As long as you don't confirm, you shouldn't believe him.]

Ye Tian Yun shrugged his shoulders, "How else am I supposed to confirm? The only foolproof way of confirming him not possessing the Chaos Emblem was by killing him… and do you think I didn't want to try that?"

"To be honest, I can't help but regret the fact that I have to hold myself back from going after Shi Yan."

"That guy is too much of a big threat to be left alive. But for the chance to get my hands on the cultivation method to control the Chaos Qi, I have no other choice but to wait."

"In the meantime, as I told earlier, I will prepare myself." 

Then staring at the waterfall in the center of the hall, he continued, "I might have a chance to break through one more realm… I still have two-three years before Shi Yan starts cultivation. I want to reach the Half Saint realm by that time."

"I am currently in the Qi Stabilization Realm, and with my cultivation speed, if nothing unexpected occurs, I will be able to break through the Foundation Establishment Realm in a year."

"But that won't be enough. I need to break through the Foundation Establishment in eight months. I only have two-three years in my hand to reach Half Saint Realm. I will have to cross three whole realms, the Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and the Nascent Soul realm."

"Not to forget that the higher I go, the slower my cultivation speed will be. Even though the speed would be amazing in the eyes of normal cultivators, in comparison to Shi Yan and to what I need, it's just too slow."

"The only way I see in which it can help me to increase my cultivation speed as fast as possible is by collecting Tokens, as many as possible. And once I get at least four tokens, I will be able to summon an Emblem, which would double the boost and exponentially increase my battle prowess."

"Tokens and Emblems… I am yet to get even the first one. With the sect going in lockdown, I will have to find one way to get out of this place and head towards the Southern Province."

"And I need to reach there before Xiao Ming, so I can make enough preparations to ambush him at the right time. I will only get this one chance.. And there's no way I am going to let it  be a waste."
