Chapter 474: The Unavoidable Disaster

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

If An Lin had a choice, he really didn’t want to see what stupid new mission the system assigned to him.

Sigh… if only I could give this wretched system to someone else…

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

For some reason, he suddenly recalled the elderly immortal from way back then, and his body trembled.

F*ck… he felt like he had been screwed over!

However, An Lin didn’t have a transferring technique for the system, and even if he did, he wouldn’t dare to transfer the system to someone else.

After all, he had strayed so far from the normal path of cultivation. If he were to lose the system now, he really wouldn’t even know how to cultivate anymore… Although it wasn’t like he knew how to cultivate with the system, it was at least better than having no direction…

He opened the system with a reluctant sigh.

As expected, the Special Missions tab was flashing with that usual accursed light.

“Detected that host has a received a chance to enter the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, now assigning the mission below:

“Obtain ten Realm Essence Crystal within a month and absorb them all.

“Mission Success: Receive the embryonic body of the War God.

“Mission Failure: Host will become a eunuch for a hundred years.

“Note: This mission cannot be rejected.”

“Hehe…” An Lin laughed grimly as the veins on his forehead began to pop.

Before this, it was only three years, but now, he would have to become a eunuch for a hundred years if he were to fail?

F*ck your grandma! That’s going too far!

Although… he would willingly abstain for a hundred years for the sake of Xu Xiaolan. But that didn’t mean he could bear being unable to use his male functions for a hundred years!

An Lin was faced with a difficult dilemma. He would have to enter the Ancient Tai Chu Realm if he wanted to complete this mission, which would essentially be walking into a disastrous calamity! He would be following the path fate had laid out for him toward his purple future…

If he wanted to escape his fate, he would have to make a drastic change. Which would mean making the decision that he would never make… to become a eunuch for a hundred years!

Tears welled up in An Lin’s eyes at this notion.

He didn’t think it would be so hard to escape the inertia of fate. This was a decision that would be extraordinarily difficult for him to make…

“An Lin, are you planning to enter the Ancient Tai Chu Realm?” Wang Xuanzhan suddenly asked.

An Lin turned to Wang Xuanzhan with a question of his own. “If you were faced with a dilemma where you had to choose to face a potentially disastrous calamity or escape this calamity at the price of becoming a eunuch for a hundred years, what would you choose?”

Wang Xuanzhan’s face convulsed slightly as he replied with a serious expression, “I am a man! A man who can carry the world on his shoulders! I would sooner die than be a eunuch for even a single day!”

An Lin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing his reply. “That’s what I thought too. This is the dignity and honor of a man; I can’t discard it no matter what!”

“That’s right! Exactly! This is a bottom line that cannot be crossed no matter what disastrous calamities I am threatened with!” Wang Xuanzhan roared with bright eyes.

“Wow, what are you guys talking about? You seem quite excited.” A beautiful woman in a red dress with a pair of golden bracelets on her wrists made her way toward them at this moment.

An Lin and Wang Xuanzhan immediately blushed and changed topics at the sight of the beautiful woman.

Wang Xuanzhan offered an awkward but still polite smile in response. “We’re discussing whether we should go to the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.”

An Lin nodded before chiming in, “And our conclusion is… a man can’t back down no matter what.”

“So you’re saying women can back down?” The woman covered her mouth as she chuckled lightly.

An Lin chuckled drily in reply. He would back down without a second thought if it wasn’t for this farcical mission!

“Hi there, my name is Yang Ruoling and my Dao title is Ling Yu.” The woman took the initiative to introduce herself.

“Greetings, my name is Wang Xuanzhan and my Dao title is Qing Lin,” Wang Xuanzhan replied politely.

They had both introduced themselves, so now it was An Lin’s turn. “Hi Celestial Maiden Ling Yu, my name is An Lin and I do not have a Dao title yet.”

“Oh? You’re An Lin from the Heavenly Court?” The woman’s eyes lit up as she said, “I’ve heard of your name from Department Head Chen of the Dark Marshlands Execution Department. Isn’t your Dao title the Tamer of Divine Lightning?”

Wang Xuanzhan chuckled lightly. “Student An Lin has many Dao titles like Poison Lord, Master of The Heavenly Finger, Stuffed Bun God…”

An Lin’s chest constricted, but he still maintained a smile while roaring in his heart, “Those are Dao titles? What kind of f*cking Dao titles are those?! Am I crazy or do you all think I’m crazy? Who would adopt Dao titles like those?!”

After a brief chat, An Lin learned that Yang Ruoling was his upperclasswoman who was over a hundred years older than himself and Wang Xuanzhan. She was once one of the supremely talented prodigies of the Heavenly Court, but she had been stuck at the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage for many years and had never been able to make a breakthrough. Hence, it was clear that she was not going to give up on the chance to enter the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.

“Alright, one hour is up. Those who would like to enter the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, please inject a wisp of your divine sense into this white bead, and I will pick out a roster!” Emperor Ziwei’s voice suddenly sounded.

Most of the people in the white palace sprang into action.

An Lin gritted his teeth and also made his way over to the bead before injecting a wisp of his divine sense within.

There were only five Return to Void Stage cultivators within the palace, so their spots were already cemented.

Among the sixty Soul Formation Stage Earth Immortals, only two chose to relinquish the opportunity to enter the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.

This meant that twenty-eight people had to be eliminated from fifty-eight Soul Formation Stage Earth Immortals. This competition was definitely quite fierce.

Emperor Ziwei soon came to a decision.

“The roster has now been confirmed. Those who will be entering the Void Star Section of the Ancient Tai Chu Realm will be the Sun Patrol God, the Night Patrol God, the Giant Spirit God, Lü Dongbin, and Celestial Maiden He.

“As for the team to enter the Ancient Divine Section, we have Long Xinhong, Chen Daoyun, Liu Chuchu… Wang Xuanzhan, and Yang Ruoling for a team of thirty.”

Emperor Ziwei announced the roster and those chosen responded with joyful expressions, while the others were feeling quite dejected.

An Lin’s expression was completely different from everyone else’s.

He stood rooted to the spot as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning. His expression had completely frozen on his face, and his mouth gaped wide open as if he had heard some extremely terrifying information.

His name wasn’t on the roster…

There was no spot for him on the roster of entrants to the Ancient Tai Chu Realm…

Wang Xuanzhan offered some words of consolation to An Lin upon seeing his expression. “It’s ok, Mr. An Lin. The path of cultivation is a long one and the world is vast with countless opportunities waiting for you. You’ve only lost one opportunity, it’s not a big deal!”

An Lin muttered under his breath, “You don’t understand… To you, this is just losing an opportunity, but to me… it’s losing my little brother…” 1

“Hah?” Wang Xuanzhan stared at An Lin with a perplexed expression.

Tears welled up in An Lin’s eyes, but he suddenly began to laugh.

So, this was the disastrous calamity… This was what his purple fate entailed…

Entering the Ancient Tai Chu Realm would be a disastrous calamity.

But becoming a eunuch for a hundred years was also a disastrous calamity to him!

He was destined to fail this mission, which meant he was destined to become a eunuch for a hundred years…

It was simply to difficult to deviate from the path pre-ordained by fate.

It was an unavoidable disaster…
