"Hahaha, she fell for it after all. This woman is nothing special; she probably won't even know how she died."
"Is that so?" Nan Qu's figure appeared in a desolate ruin.
The main system paused, its voice ethereal, then stared incredulously at the woman before it: "You, you? How could you be here? Shouldn't you be here?" The main system looked at the person in the image.
Mirachel, who was originally attacking the "clone" set up by the main system, suddenly lost consciousness. The five legendary beasts beside Mirachel, along with Regar, also vanished.
"No, that's impossible. How would you know about this place?"
"What do you want to know? Then let me start from the beginning. The Shang family has been practicing medicine for generations, especially because of their ancestral teachings on ethical medicine. So, for hundreds of years, although they have been running that small clinic, they have accumulated a rare legacy of good deeds."
You've been spreading the system around to steal the merits of those with great virtue, so it's right that the system first appeared on my dad, wasn't it? I remember for a while, my dad was like he'd won the lottery, feeling like he was about to reach the pinnacle of life. But not long after, something happened to my parents.
Perhaps my father realized the system was malfunctioning before he died, and did something that damaged it. Finally, after I saw my parents' bodies, the system instinctively followed me.
However, because the damage was severe, I instinctively went there when I saw the glittering shop sign. Later, to fulfill my parents' last wish, I chose to return home to inherit the clinic. At that time, I wasn't actually hit by the ceiling, but by the shop sign.
The system absorbed the merchant's good deeds and restored some of the damage, after which you were able to contact it. Therefore, the signboard wasn't smashed down for no reason; it meant you wanted to kill me.
Was it my father? It was my father's spirit after his death that interfered with the system. It caused the system to choose me as its master and make me its primary task. So the system used its merits to send me away from that world, and also freed me from your control.
Unfortunately, I still failed my father's hopes and couldn't survive in the martial arts world. At the moment of my death, the system reactivated, transporting me to the modern era. It also upgraded at that moment. As a result, you discover that the system is no longer your original system; it has developed its own consciousness.
Or rather, the system's consciousness has awakened.
How could the system possibly travel through time and space? The ones who can travel through time and space are the Time-Space Beasts! Time-Space Beasts, how could there be two of such magical things? The Time-Space Beast in my space is just an avatar of the Time-Space Beast, am I right, Time-Space Administrator?
Ha, didn't you find it ironic when you chose this name?
After arriving in the modern world, the first mistake you made was trying to kill me by sending me to the magical world. Perhaps the guardian of that timeline secretly helped me? He made me sign a pact with a dragon.
You failed to kill me, and instead gained Rehgar as your protector, which further diminishes your chance to harm me. However, you cannot arouse my suspicion, hence the subsequent journey through time and space.
This is the second mistake you made. Time travel isn't that simple. You need me to travel out of control, so the Time Beast must have more energy. Therefore, the so-called upgrade of the Time Beast is just weakening the main body of the Time Beast on your side and transferring it to the clone.
You never expected that someone so incredibly weak would be so difficult to kill. It wasn't until I discovered the apocalyptic virus that you became afraid. Therefore, the ancient timeline is where you'll try to kill me again—that's the Valley of the Divine Beasts, where I'm destined to die.
However, you're worried that the system's protection mechanism will work again, and even if you die, the system will still take you through time travel. So the main body of the Time-Space Beast appears and summons the Time-Space Beast from my space to fly away.
But you didn't expect that the Time-Space Beast's clone had developed self-awareness and was unwilling to return to the main body. In fact, because the clone was filled with merit, you were helpless against it. You could only let it go free.
Unexpectedly, the clone returned to my side and used the energy it obtained from the main Time-Space Beast to directly protect that area of spacetime. Most importantly, now that you know the Time-Space Beast has its own consciousness, you no longer dare to directly issue commands to it as before.
What you didn't expect was that when the clone Time-Space Beast devoured the main Time-Space Beast, it extracted a sliver of its memories. To avoid being exposed, you had to admit that the space upgrade involved consuming a large amount of gold and silver treasures, which is why you devoured Regal's treasures back then.
As a result, Xiao Kong brought me here to compensate Regal.
I hadn't woken up at first; this place, filled with ashes and deathly stillness, was supposed to be your lair. But the aura you left behind in the magical world felt somewhat familiar. And, coincidentally, I have a good memory. Plus, this deathly aura left a deep impression on me.
The main system understood: "So, you did it on purpose, deliberately telling so much to the spacetime beast in your space, actually hiding what you did from even it?"
"How could that be? I deliberately hid it from you. You know, this is the only place where I don't have a physical body. If I wanted to come here, I would naturally need a body to come with me, but my current main body is in the modern world. How could I possibly hide something like traveling from the modern world to here from the Time-Space Beast?"
In fact, you probably don't know that although the Time-Space Beast was an avatar, it had become a completely independent entity after devouring the apocalypse and continuously absorbing merit. It had also recognized me as its master.
Why would a mythical beast need to speak to communicate with its master?
Now that I've reached the Tribulation Transcending stage, creating a clone wouldn't be difficult for me. Everything I possess is in interstellar spacetime, so you naturally wouldn't doubt that I'm here now.
