149: Lan Ao’s long-awaited event!

Fortunately, Lin Sheng's Immortal Venerable aura was enough to deter other demons, monsters, ghosts, and cultivators within the secret realm from approaching.

No incidents occurred along the way.

The little black lotus just "mischievously" landed in his palm like that.

[Ding!]

[Detected special energy, absorb?]

"Absorb!"

Lin Sheng's heart pounded faster.

[Absorbing...]

[Upgrade progress: 51%]

[Upgrade progress: 52%]

[...]

[Upgrade progress: 100%!]

[Congratulations! The "Main Character Life Choices" system has successfully upgraded! (Current version 2.0)]

Lin Sheng waited for a moment with anticipation.

But as he waited, the system had nothing more to say.

'No.'

He frowned, asking in his mind, 'System, what are the changes after your upgrade? What are the new functions?'

[Responding to host]

[After upgrading to version 2.0, the system has become more powerful!]

"So?"

[The level has surpassed the original "system level" and can modify other systems!]

"What does that mean?"

[In the future, if you encounter a Heavenly Mandated Protagonist who possesses a system, you will have the ability to change it!]

"Oh... this is indeed a significant improvement."

Lin Sheng's eyes lit up, and he nodded.

At his current breakthrough speed, it wouldn't be long before he could break through to Immortal Emperor and step into the Supreme Dao Realm.

By then.

He would possess the ability to traverse worlds!

Perhaps when bored, he could also go to other higher-level worlds to explore and experience their wonders.

At that time, if he encountered such a Heavenly Mandated Protagonist, wouldn't this ability come into effect?

Watching the system information gradually disappear before him, Lin Sheng finally let out a sigh of relief and revealed a sunny smile.

Seeing him like this.

The Little Flower Fairy smiled and darted back into his palm world.

Baili Fengming then happily bounced up.

"Master, Master, are you done handling it?"

"Mm!"

"Then, where shall we go next?"

"Hmm..."

[Ding!]

[Heavenly Mandated Protagonist No. 3, Lan Ao, has triggered a life event!]

The message that popped up before him made Lin Sheng's lips curl.

What a coincidence.

[Event Name: Lan Ao Solves the Ruin Mechanism, Heroically Saves the Beauty and Displays Great Power!]

[Location: North Sea Demon Country · Xiaoyue White Tiger Clan Secret Realm]

[Event Summary: In order to achieve a life reversal, with the help of Xiaoyue White Tiger Clan Leader Liu Fenglie, Lan Ao successfully entered the White Tiger Secret Realm. (Liu Fenglie was a fellow junior disciple of Lan Ao's Master, Worry-Free Venerable, and was willing to help)]

[The most crucial opportunity in the White Tiger Secret Realm lies in "Baihu Valley". Legend has it that this was originally the birthplace of the Xiaoyue White Tiger Clan, and it contains the treasures accumulated by the White Tiger Clan's ancestors.]

[However, to enter Baihu Valley, one must first solve the mechanism at the valley entrance.]

[Clan Leader Liu Fenglie attempted to break the mechanism with an ancestral chant, but unexpectedly, the mechanism wasn't broken; instead, it triggered an automatic defense mechanism, shooting out countless poisoned arrows!]

[At this critical moment!]

[Lan Ao, wearing a bull mask, stepped forward, saved the "Demon Concubine" Liu Qingxue, and landed after spinning in the air.]

[And under everyone's gaze, he used his cleverness and wisdom to break the mechanism, earning their high regard.]

[After entering the valley, Lan Ao's calm and collected behavior in the face of a large number of cultivation techniques and treasures contrasted sharply with others, making even Liu Fenglie unable to help but praise him.]

[Finally, he led everyone all the way to the tomb chamber at the bottom of the valley. Here, they discovered a dying ancestor of the White Tiger Clan. Lan Ao used his medical skills to extend his lifespan for a while, allowing him to successfully impart the clan's secrets to Liu Fenglie.]

[To thank him.]

[This White Tiger Clan ancestor even cut out his Celestial Immortal demon core and gifted it to Lan Ao. Lan Ao absorbed the demon core, his cultivation soared to the Celestial Immortal realm, and he was taught the Xiaoyue White Tiger Clan's most proud "Killing God White Tiger Art"!]

[He wore a mask throughout this process, and after coming out, he left in a hurry.]

[Only Liu Qingxue remembered those eyes and could recognize him through them.]

After reading the event summary.

Lin Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Let's go, I know where we're heading."

...

Within the secret realm, Baihu Valley.

A large number of cultivators had already gathered on the plain at the valley entrance.

This was the most central location in the entire White Tiger Secret Realm, and also the main objective for most people entering this secret realm.

But looking at the two giant stone sculptures of sword-wielding guards in front of the valley, the cultivators all found themselves in a predicament.

"We can't get in! Many people have just tried. It's like the air is filled with invisible teleportation arrays; you get sent back as soon as you go in, sent back as soon as you go in."

"It must be a problem with these two stone statues!"

"The White Tiger Clan should have a way, right? It's impossible that they can't get in either."

"Wouldn't it be fine if we just destroyed these stone statues?"

"Look quickly, Liu Fenglie seems to be making a move!"

Everyone saw Liu Fenglie walk to the front of the valley, muttering something softly, and then he waved his large hand towards the two stone sculptures!

Two beams of faint white light shot out from his hand, striking the eyes of the two stone sculpture guards respectively.

Everyone still waited with anticipation for changes to occur at the valley entrance.

But what they waited for was a dense rain of arrows, bursting out from the void!

This arrow rain was pitch black like a swarming beehive, leaving nowhere to hide!

"What!?"

"Damn it! Quickly dodge!"

The speed of the arrow rain was too fast, too fast.

Most of the people present originally thought they were going to die here today, but suddenly, the endless arrow rain before their eyes abruptly stopped in mid-air.

As if time and space had suddenly frozen.

Following that.

An aura of extreme vastness slowly approached from afar.

Before the person arrived, the voice had already come.

"It's quite lively here."

It's the Holy Son!

The Golden Dragon Holy Son has arrived!

Everyone looked up and saw this young master, dressed in white with an aura of immortality, slowly descending from the sky, like an Immortal descending upon the world. Following obediently behind him was a beauty of captivating charm, dressed in a long golden woven dress, with a faint curiosity seeming to flicker in her elegant eyes and brows.

"Holy Son!"

"It was the Immortal Master who saved us!"

"Thank you, Holy Son, for saving us!"

Everyone greeted him one after another, while also expressing their gratitude.

Liu Fenglie subtly glanced at Liu Qingxue beside him, who was gazing at Lin Sheng in a daze, then immediately stepped forward and bowed towards the landed Lin Sheng, cupping his hands: "Thank you, Holy Son, for saving us. If you have any requests, feel free to ask my Xiaoyue White Tiger Clan."

Though he said this.

But everyone knew that this was merely a display of Liu Fenglie wanting to curry favor with the Holy Son.

It was like a poor person telling a rich person, "You can take whatever you want from my house."

Lin Sheng smiled faintly.

He didn't pay attention to that, but instead turned and asked, "As the Clan Leader, you can't even break the mechanism of this valley?"

Liu Fenglie smiled awkwardly, "Perhaps... something went wrong somewhere..."

"I... I..."

His gaze cautiously sized up Lin Sheng, his flustered appearance as if he desperately needed someone's help.
