Multiverse Skill System

"Why not use Pangu as a model and create a race similar to Pangu?"

Yi Shuihan offered his seemingly casual suggestion, but to Nuwa, these words opened up a whole new world for her.

"That's right! How come I didn't think of that? If we take the Great God Pangu as the model, then such a race is born with the Dao body, perfect."

Nuwa was quite agitated and couldn't wait to go back and test it out.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, you have taken another step closer to the Great Dao."

Seeing Nuwa's condition, the Three Pure Ones and the others immediately understood what was going on and offered their congratulations. At the same time, they looked at Yi Shuihan with the same gaze, not believing that this was merely a coincidence.

"I wonder what insights Fellow Daoist Taiyi has regarding how my senior brother and I attained sainthood?"

Zhunti was a man who could abandon even his integrity, completely lacking the reserve of a master, and asked the question directly, which made the Three Pure Ones secretly despise him.

Yi Shuihan hadn't expected Zhunti to be so direct. He knew how Zhunti became a saint, but he couldn't say it. After all, giving Nuwa a reminder could be considered a sudden inspiration, but telling Zhunti about establishing a religion would be too far-fetched. A sudden inspiration wouldn't come to mind.

Most importantly, Yi Shuihan didn't want to tell Zhunti.

"I don't have any insights. Fellow Daoists Zhunti and Jieyin are both very wise. If neither of you thought of this, how could I possibly have?"

I made a slight self-deprecating joke.

Yi Shuihan's answer disappointed Zhunti, who wanted to ask more questions, but Jieyin coughed and stopped him.

“We made an agreement before, and I’m here to support you today. Why don’t you help me choose a system that suits me, Fellow Daoist Taiyi?”

An agreement? What's that?

The Three Pure Ones knew that Nuwa had escaped from Yi Shuihan unscathed at the cost of three conditions, but they did not know the specific conditions, so when they first heard the agreement, they did not think about it in that direction at all.

"I won't help you choose. I'll just recommend three systems for you to choose from."

After speaking, Yi Shuihan began to communicate with Nuwa telepathically. The system was a trump card, and it wouldn't be good for Nuwa if the Three Pure Ones knew about it. Therefore, Yi Shuihan didn't reveal it directly but communicated with Nuwa alone.

In just a dozen or so breaths, the deal was completed quietly. Yi Shuihan took out a system whose details were known only to him and Nuwa and handed it to Nuwa.

Chapter 1056, Desiring to Improve the Environment

The system gave it to Nuwa, and Nuwa also gave Yi Shuihan a corresponding reward: a primordial spiritual treasure, though it was just an ordinary primordial spiritual treasure.

Based on what Nuwa gave them, the Three Pure Ones could also tell that the system Nuwa purchased was at most at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

The story doesn't end there. Yi Shuihan handed Nuwa a jade tablet, about the size of a palm, with an exquisite design.

"what is this?"

"A lottery ticket. With this, you can participate in the lottery later. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to win that quasi-saint level system?"

Yi Shuihan said with a smile.

The Quasi-Saint System does exist, but whether anyone can take it away today is another matter, because the probability of winning is calculated at one in ten thousand, and the maximum number of draws today is estimated to be no more than a hundred, so the probability of winning the Quasi-Saint System is not high.

Yi Shuihan's value points didn't come from thin air, so he wouldn't let anyone take away the Quasi-Saint System so easily. However, he wasn't deceiving consumers; it really was possible to be selected. Who knows?

"Can I go to the prize draw first?"

"Are you planning to leave now?"

Having her thoughts read, Nuwa nodded gracefully.

"Of course that won't work. The lottery will be open at a fixed time, and the rules cannot be broken. However, you can give your jade token to Fuxi and let him draw the lottery on your behalf."

Yi Shuihan's return was not unexpected by the Three Pure Ones, but it surprised Nuwa. In her opinion, Yi Shuihan should not have made things difficult for her in such a simple matter. Besides, she had not thought that she could win the lottery.

"OK then!"

Nuwa thought about it and decided to do as Yi Shuihan suggested. She greeted Yi Shuihan and the others, then walked towards Fuxi. It is unknown what she said to Fuxi, but it was probably about the lottery. After that, she left first.

Nuwa's departure went unnoticed by most people. Only a few who had been observing Yi Shuihan's side knew that Nuwa had left. Most people were still focused on the magical system.

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, your system is incredibly powerful. I wonder if you have a system that can improve the environment? The West is barren and life is hard, far worse than the East. If there is a system that can improve the environment in the West, I am willing to pay any price."

"You're even willing to give up the Primordial Purple Qi?"

Just as Zhunti was thinking about how to use his carelessness to get Yi Shuihan to give him a good system, or at least a cheaper one, Yi Shuihan shut him down with a single sentence.

Zhunti cares a lot about the environment in the West because the Western landforms were destroyed in the battle between Hongjun and Rahu. What was once a treasure land comparable to the East has become a barren land. It is too shabby to be the place where Zhunti and Jieyin practice.

In the East, even an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal's Daoist temple has more abundant spiritual energy than the Daoist temple of Zhunti and his ilk in the West. This issue has always been a concern for Zhunti.

Zhunti was also an ambitious person who hoped to develop the West so that it would be no worse than the East. This had even become his obsession, and he gave up a lot for it, such as his integrity and his reputation.

"There are definitely systems that can meet your requirements, but you just can't afford them."

That's a bit of a lie. In reality, with just a few tens of thousands of value points, Yi Shuihan could create a system that could repair the Western environment. For the Primordial World, this would be very difficult, but from the perspective of the system, it's not as difficult as cultivating a Quasi-Saint.

Just like a programmer, if you ask him to write a small program in a day, it will be very easy for him. But if you ask him to write an outline in a day, it will definitely be difficult for him.

The environmental problems in the West are like this mini-program; the only problem is that they can't find suitable programmers, which is why they seem so difficult.

In fact, there is someone in the prehistoric world who could easily restore the western environment. Who is it? It is naturally Hongjun. With his level of strength, let alone restoring the western environment, he could even completely reshape the prehistoric world.

A sage has the power to destroy heaven and earth, create all things, and even repair the shattered primordial world, reshaping it and restoring the environment—such a small matter is naturally easy for him.

The difficulty of Pangu creating the world and the difficulty of a sage reshaping the primordial world are different. The former is creating something from nothing, while the latter is just making some changes on the existing basis, which is naturally much simpler.

Even for figures like Zhunti, once they become saints, changing environmental problems would be very simple. In fact, the fundamental problem is not the environment, but rather the luck, or the favor of Heaven.

The general trend of the primordial world is determined by the Heavenly Dao. Even if the environment in the West recovers, if the Heavenly Dao does not ordain for the West to prosper, no talented people will emerge in the West, let alone extraordinary natural treasures.

"How many value points are needed?"

Before Zhunti could answer Yi Shuihan's question, Jieyin preemptively asked a question.

"30 million value points".

Zhunti and the others already had a general understanding of the value of the points. When they heard the number 30, they gasped in shock. 30 could be worth several top-grade innate spiritual treasures. Even if Jieyin and Zhunti took out all their possessions, they probably wouldn't be able to raise that much.

No wonder Yi Shuihan said he needed Hongmeng Ziqi; it must be because with Hongmeng Ziqi, Zhunti and Jieyin could reach 30.

Compared to the Three Pure Ones, Zhunti and Jieyin are truly penniless. The Three Pure Ones could easily come up with 30 without needing to use Hongmeng Purple Qi.

"Actually, if you were to become saints, you could solve these problems yourselves; there's no need to use the system."

Yi Shuihan said, with an air of concern for you all.

"Alas, it seems we can only wait until we become saints. It's just a pity for all living beings in the world who are cultivating in the West."

Zhunti sighed and said.

"I'm powerless to do anything about it. This system isn't mine; I'm just working for the big boss."

Yi Shuihan spread his hands, saying helplessly.

"Actually, there is another way. You can buy a system first, and then you can participate in a lottery. If you win that quasi-saint level system, it might be able to solve the environmental problem."

"What exactly is that quasi-saint level system that offers a prize? Can you tell me about it? Can it really solve the environmental problems in the West?"

"I can't be sure. This system was sent directly from above. I don't even know its name or specific functions. They said it was meant to give consumers a surprise, but it's supposedly a pretty powerful system."

Chapter 1057, The Lottery Event Begins

Yi Shuihan wasn't entirely lying to Zhunti. He genuinely didn't know the name or function of the quasi-saint-level system that was the reward. After all, he hadn't really thought anyone could win this ultimate prize from the beginning, so he hadn't prepared a corresponding system.

It's a lottery! Of course, there won't be only one reward: the Quasi-Saint System. Yi Shuihan also included three guaranteed Golden Immortal-level systems and one Grand Luo Golden Immortal system with a one percent chance of winning. As long as someone actually wins, no one will think that Yi Shuihan is deceiving consumers.

Even if they deceived consumers, they have no way to protect their rights! They don't even know the company's complaint number.

Yes, Yi Shuihan's company does have a department that handles complaints, precisely to prevent company employees from damaging the company's reputation outside.

Those who know this phone number are at a certain level and belong to a group that the company values. Generally, if a complaint is received, someone will be sent to investigate. If there is indeed a case of deceiving consumers, the employee will be punished accordingly. However, if it is a false complaint, the complainant will also be held accountable by the company.

Under Yi Shuihan's persuasion, Zhunti and Jieyin each bought three Golden Immortal-level systems. This was mainly because Yi Shuihan stipulated that each person could only draw three times, so they bought three. As for why they bought Golden Immortal-level systems instead of Daluo Golden Immortal-level systems, it was obvious that they were poor!

Although the system is amazing, once you reach the Quasi-Saint level, even the Golden Immortal level system is basically useless. What the system can do, they can easily do as well. Only some special systems at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level are effective against Quasi-Saint level powerhouses.

Originally, Yi Shuihan wanted to fool the Three Pure Ones, so that there would be 9 Golden Immortal-level systems, which would be equivalent to selling a Great Luo Golden Immortal-level system. Unfortunately, among the Three Pure Ones, only Yuanshi bought 3 Golden Immortal-level systems, Tongtian symbolically bought 1 Golden Immortal-level system, and Laozi did not buy any.

The system is good and everyone likes it, but only a few people actually buy it. The reason is simple: they are short of money. It's understandable that they hesitate to use all their savings to buy a system that doesn't improve their strength much.

Most of the actual buyers are Quasi-Saints. They buy them for their disciples or children. Great Luo Golden Immortals can't afford Great Luo Golden Immortal-level systems, and it's not cost-effective for Golden Immortals to buy them either, so naturally few people buy them. Even if someone does buy one occasionally, it's probably with the intention of researching the system.

In one day, 31 systems were sold, including 2 at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level and the rest at the Golden Immortal level. Yi Shuihan earned more than 4 contribution points.

Yi Shuihan felt helpless about this. 3 seemed like a lot, but it was actually not much. Seven or eight out of ten powerful beings in the prehistoric world gathered here and only earned 4. They would earn even less in the future. It was the first day of business, so those who were interested in buying had basically bought it. Those who didn't buy it were very likely not to buy it in the future. Business would probably plummet in the future. Not to mention selling 30 systems a day, it was unlikely that they could even sell one a year.

"So, you still need to trade with real tycoons to get bricks. This shop can only rely on a slow and steady approach, accumulating wealth little by little."

......

"Next comes the exciting lottery draw. Fellow Daoists with lottery tickets, please come forward to draw your prizes."

Yi Shuihan stood next to a large box with the words "Lottery" written on it.

The box wasn't large, only about half a cubic meter. From the outside, it looked like you could easily reach from top to bottom with one hand. But the reality was quite different; the inside was an enormous space, roughly the size of a mountain.

There are 1 small balls in the box, moving around rapidly and randomly. The person drawing the prize simply puts their hand in the box, and when a ball hits their hand, it stops. Taking the ball out completes the draw. Of course, you can also put the ball down and wait for the next ball to come to your hand.

The balls are specially made, and even Yi Shuihan cannot cheat, so it all depends on luck.

The first person to participate in the lottery was the Great Luo Golden Immortal who was tricked by Donghuang Taiyi, and also one of only two people who purchased the Great Luo Golden Immortal System.

A white ball was pulled out, with the words "Thank you for your patronage" written on it.

"It's a pity you didn't win, but there's still a consolation prize."

At Yi Shuihan's prompting, Donghuang Taiyi took out a beautifully packaged bottle and handed it to the other party.

The bottle contains a fruit wine brewed by Yi Shui Han. It costs one value point to brew a large vat. It doesn't have any special functions; its only feature is that it tastes good.

The lottery proceeded smoothly, and even those who didn't win were only slightly disappointed, without any outbursts or disturbances.

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, you've drawn 13 times already, and haven't won even once. What exactly is your odds of winning?"

Zhunti's expression was not very good. He had come with the idea of ​​winning the grand prize, but the fact that he had won the draw made him suspect that Yi Shuihan was manipulating things behind the scenes and that he didn't actually intend for anyone to win.

Putting himself in her shoes, Zhunti knew he definitely didn't want anyone to win the lottery, which is why he wondered if Yi Shuihan felt the same way.

"The odds of winning are one percent, which is quite high. They just had bad luck. Fellow Daoist Zhunti has great fortune, so he will definitely win."

Zhunti's lips twitched slightly. One percent is still high; it's clearly as low as it can get. No wonder the previous one didn't win.

What if we don't win?

"If you don't win, I'll take the liberty of giving you a few more bottles of fruit wine. Don't be shy."

"..."

After another 10 lottery draws, all participants came up empty-handed, and the atmosphere became somewhat eerie. Everyone's gazes towards Yi Shuihan were a little strange. There was no way around it; after all, they hadn't experienced the baptism of the information age and couldn't remain calm in the face of such a situation.

It's only been 20-odd draws and no one has won. Back when Yi Shuihan saw a lottery event, it was common for hundreds of people to not win. Millions of people buy lottery tickets, and it's not uncommon for not a single person to win the first prize.

Yi Shuihan kept his eyes straight ahead, seemingly unaware of everyone's gazes. Donghuang Taiyi, on the other hand, felt his face burning and kept his head down, avoiding looking at everyone.

Chapter 1058, Operations Inside the Box

In comparison, our Styx Ancestor has a much thicker skin than Donghuang Taiyi. His smiling face makes people feel embarrassed to look at him.

"It's time to use the guaranteed win quota. It would be really unreasonable if we didn't win any of them."

Of the 10,000 spots, 3 are guaranteed to be Golden Immortal Systems. As long as Yi Shuihan has a thought, the lottery drawer can only touch the 3 balls representing the Golden Immortal Systems; the others will not be able to touch them.

"You've won! Congratulations! You can choose any Golden Immortal-level system in the store."

A hand patted the lucky man's shoulder. The mighty Great Luo Golden Immortal seemed a little dumbfounded at this moment, staring blankly at Yi Shuihan.

"Are you too happy to speak? It's okay, I understand."

"Taiyi, take him to collect the prize."

After the first winner left, the atmosphere of the lottery became intense again. Someone winning meant that the lottery was real, and that there was no possibility of winning at all.

"Fellow Daoist Zhunti, it's your turn now, please!"

Zhunti stood in front of the lottery box and slowly put his hand into it. Although it was very subtle, Yi Shuihan could still feel his hand trembling.

"His desire for the Saint-level system is truly beyond imagination!"

Yi Shuihan was speechless. What kind of thought process led Zhunti to put so much effort into the lottery? Did he think he could cheat?

"kindness?"

Yi Shuihan waited to see Zhunti's expression of gratitude after winning the lottery, but suddenly noticed something strange. Zhunti was holding a lottery ball in his hand, but instead of taking it out, he let go of the ball and waited for it to come into his hand again.

Even Yi Shuihan himself couldn't cheat. If he hadn't refined the lottery box, he probably wouldn't even know what was inside. And now, Zhunti's behavior clearly wasn't about taking a chance; there must be something that Yi Shuihan hadn't noticed.

"What methods were used?"
