2: Summoning the peak-level Emperor, the founding ancestor Li Tiangang!

"System?"

Lin Chen was stunned for a moment.

He had been transmigrated for so many years and had never seen a trace of a System. He never expected that dying once would finally activate it.

Golden Summoning Card?

What's the use of this?

"Draw!"

Regardless of its use, Lin Chen decided to draw first and ask questions later!

"Whoosh—"

Suddenly, a series of cards appeared before his eyes, shimmering with dazzling golden light and spinning wildly.

Suddenly, one card was drawn from among them.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for drawing the Peak Great Emperor, the Founding Ancestral Master of the Wending Sect, Li Tiangang!]

[Friendly Reminder: All summoned powerhouses are absolutely loyal to the Host and will never betray you!]

..."Huh?"

Lin Chen was utterly dumbfounded.

Before he could even react, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, accompanied by flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder.

A rift appeared within the clouds, seemingly connected to... the River of Time!

An old man with white hair and a long beard, dressed in a plain Daoist robe, stepped out from the River of Time, treading upon the void!

An extremely terrifying Great Emperor's pressure radiated from his body!

It seemed as if a single glance from him could kill countless ants!

Such a terrifying celestial phenomenon had long since alarmed the peerless powerhouses of nearby Sects.

They spanned countless miles, casting their incredibly powerful Divine Sense towards the direction of the Wending Sect, wanting to see what exactly was happening there.

But, they were blocked by an invisible barrier.

Unable to investigate.

"Didn't this old man die?"

As the dark clouds gradually dispersed, Li Tiangang looked at the familiar Wending Sect before him, a mixture of shock and joy on his face.

"Old Ancestor, I am the one who revived you."

Lin Chen snapped out of his shock and spoke calmly.

"You?!"

Only then did Li Tiangang notice the young man standing before him.

The moment he laid eyes on this young man, his Soul was suddenly gripped by an indescribable fear and trembling.

Although the other party had no cultivation to speak of, he had a strong feeling that with just a single thought from the other, he would be utterly annihilated.

There would be no room for resistance whatsoever.

"Indeed, I am the current Sect Master of the Wending Sect."

Lin Chen saluted the Old Ancestor with the courtesy of a Junior.

"This old man, Li Tiangang, pays his respects to the Sect Master!"

Li Tiangang dared not put on airs. The other party could not only revive him but also extinguish him with a casual thought. He was filled with gratitude; how could he possibly act arrogantly?

Lin Chen wanted to offer the position of Sect Master to the Old Ancestor, but the Old Ancestor adamantly refused to accept it.

Helpless, Lin Chen could only continue to serve as Sect Master himself.

"What is the current state of the Wending Sect?"

Looking at the dilapidated and desolate Sect, Li Tiangang vaguely guessed the general situation.

"Sigh..."

Lin Chen let out a sigh.

The world where the Wending Sect is located is called the Cangxuan Realm, which is divided into five major regions: the Eastern Domain, Southern Domain, Western Domain, Northern Domain, and the Imperial Continent.

The Wending Sect is located in the Eastern Domain. A million years ago, after Li Tiangang founded the Wending Sect, it flourished for a time.

But after Li Tiangang's unexpected demise, the Wending Sect declined year after year.

By the time the Legacy passed to Lin Chen, there were less than ten people left.

Because Lin Chen gave all the cultivation resources to Liu Yanran, the Disciples were extremely dissatisfied and left him one after another.

Now, the entire Wending Sect consisted only of him, a commander without an army.

"It's alright. Now that this Old Ancestor has returned, I will definitely restore the Wending Sect to its former glory!"

Li Tiangang exuded an imposing aura, his gaze sharp as lightning.

"Good, I believe in you, Old Ancestor!"

Lin Chen was extremely excited.

With such a peerless Great Power overseeing the Sect, it wouldn't be long before the Wending Sect returned to the ranks of top-tier Sects.

This world follows the law of the jungle, where the strong are revered.

Realms are divided, from low to high, into three stages.

"Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation."

"Void Refining, Body Integration, Undergoing Tribulation."

"Mahayana, Supreme, Great Emperor."

"Each Realm is further divided into Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Peak."

"The difference in strength between each Realm is enormous."

"Even a small gap within a single Realm can trap many Cultivators for a lifetime, unable to achieve a Breakthrough."

Although Lin Chen had never seen a powerhouse above the Mahayana Realm, the Wending Sect's ancient texts clearly recorded the division of Realms.

Before his demise, Old Ancestor Li Tiangang had already reached the Peak Great Emperor level!

He was the undisputed overlord-level powerhouse of the Cangxuan Realm, capable of annihilating a first-rate Sect with a mere wave of his hand!

With the Old Ancestor present, who would dare look down on the Wending Sect?

"Sect Master, this old man needs to settle some old scores and wishes to leave for a period of time."

Li Tiangang was somewhat impatient.

"Very well."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement.

Li Tiangang took a single step and directly vanished into the void.

After the Old Ancestor left, the System's voice rang out once more.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining: Newbie Gift Pack ×1, automatically opened for you!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining: Chaos Dao Body Permanent Enhancement Card ×1!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining: Realm Random Enhancement Card ×1!]

...Lin Chen stared dumbfounded at the contents of the Newbie Gift Pack, his mouth nearly agape.

Inside were countless Spirit Stones, Magic Treasures, Spirit Pills... all stored within the System's space. The richness was comparable to that of a first-rate Sect in the Eastern Domain!

Such an enormous fortune was something Lin Chen had never dared to imagine before!

Now, it had fallen into his hands without the slightest effort!

"And this is just the Newbie Gift Pack?"

Lin Chen couldn't imagine how terrifying future rewards would be!

Especially those two enhancement cards, they were priceless treasures.

[Chaos Dao Body: The number one Divine Body in all Realms, the most monstrous Aptitude within the endless Chaos. The so-called Supreme Bone isn't even fit to carry the shoes of the Chaos Dao Body!]

"Use the Chaos Dao Body Enhancement Card!"

Lin Chen didn't hesitate in the slightest.

As his words fell, a huge hole tore open in the sky. A profound and mysterious light descended from the endless starry sky, landing upon Lin Chen.

He only felt an all-over comfort and couldn't help but shiver.

"That's it?"

Lin Chen didn't feel anything particularly special, but the System prompt indicated success.

After studying it for a long time and still finding nothing, he simply gave up.

"Use the Realm Random Enhancement Card!"

At his command, the System quickly responded.

[Ding! Realm Random Card used successfully! Congratulations, Host, for drawing: Peak Spirit Transformation!]

Immediately after, light flashed rapidly across Lin Chen's body. His cultivation soared at an incredibly terrifying speed—

"Qi Refining Early Stage!"

"Qi Refining Middle Stage!"

"..."

"Foundation Establishment Peak!"

"..."

"Nascent Soul Middle Stage!"

"..."

"Spirit Transformation Late Stage!"

"Spirit Transformation Peak!"

When Lin Chen's Realm reached Peak Spirit Transformation, his cultivation finally stopped increasing.

"Is this the feeling of power?"

Lin Chen threw a punch, instantly reducing half a mountain Peak to rubble.

The Chaos Dao Body was truly terrifying!

He had witnessed many Peak Spirit Transformation powerhouses before, but their strength was simply incomparable to his current self.

He had a strong feeling that he could absolutely fight beyond his Realm!

Even if a Void Refining Realm powerhouse came, he could still trample them underfoot!

"Incredible!!"

Lin Chen roared at the sky, sweeping away all the pent-up frustration of many years!

Just then, the System suddenly issued a mission—

[Ding! System Main Mission issued!]

[Detected that the Host was once framed and murdered. The System can no longer tolerate this!]

[Please proceed to annihilate the Ye Family! After completing the mission, you will receive a massive reward!]
