Vol. 1 Chapter 11 – The Moment of Eternal Destiny

“Oh la la! See, see! The cutest little Guo Guo didn’t lie, right?” Guo Guo’s proud laughter rang out. It was a clear and melodious sound that could make anyone feel at ease, but at the same time, it also gave an overwhelming urge to shut her up.

Ye Tian Xie ignored her, his gaze focused intently on the enormous object in his hands, which had transformed from his most treasured possession. His calm expression barely concealed the growing astonishment within.

He could actually see its attributes, and its name was…

The Moment of Eternal Destiny!

“The energy core of this world—the Moment of Eternal Destiny—has disappeared, whereabouts unknown. Without the power of the Moment of Eternal Destiny, the sealing power of the Tower of Fate has finally collapsed. All eight demon kings have escaped, and the leaking demonic energy has begun to affect all lands. Even the most docile animals have turned savage…”

The words of the old man with petrified legs echoed in his mind. What he mentioned first was this『Moment of Eternal Destiny』—the energy core of this world?

What shocked him even more was that this object, known as the world’s energy core, was… a weapon!

The Moment of Eternal Destiny (Fragmented):

Requirements: None.

Grade: Immortal.

The energy core of the World of Destiny, with an unknown mysterious origin and unknown mysterious power. Currently in a fragmented state with the core of destiny completely lost. It has been forcibly bound to its owner. Owner: Xie Tian. It cannot be traded, dropped, stolen, or discarded.

Attributes:

Attack +50, Attack +5%, +10 to all four basic attributes, normal attacks will deal damage to all targets within the attack range simultaneously.

Skill:

Gift of Destiny: Passive. The master of the Moment of Eternal Destiny will receive the Blessing of Destiny, increasing fixed talent attributes: Luck +10, Insight +10, Charisma +10. (This is forcibly applied, and the effect cannot be turned off. Unless the Moment of Eternal Destiny is removed from the body, the effect will not disappear even if it is not equipped.)

Seven Judgments of Destiny: Uses the power of the Moment of Eternal Destiny to impose seven consecutive, distinct judgments on the target. These judgments cannot be resisted, cannot be stacked, the attack range is unknown, and the skill’s cooldown time is unknown.

Ye Tian Xie: “!!!!”

Holding this strange weapon, the Moment of Eternal Destiny, which had forcibly recognized him as its master without his consent, his hand trembled slightly. The attack power it added far surpassed that of ordinary level 20 weapons, and its four basic attributes increased by a staggering 40 points—each level up grants only 5 free attribute points, so this increase was equivalent to an instant level boost of 8! Even more powerful were the special properties listed at the end, allowing normal attacks to become area-of-effect attacks, striking all targets within range. Such attributes were unheard of, even in the strongest weapons of Qingtian or Shenmi.

As for its grade—Immortal! Ye Tian Xie wasn’t surprised. Just the 30 fixed attribute points granted by the Gift of Destiny alone fully justified its Immortal-level rating. Increasing fixed attributes was incredibly difficult, and equipment that did so was extremely rare. In Qingtian, even legendary accessories would offer at most 3 points to fixed attributes.

Yet, this Moment of Eternal Destiny granted an unbelievable 30 points!

The Pale-tier weapons, Iron-tier weapons, Bronze-tier weapons, Silver-tier weapons, and Gold-tier weapons form the grading system in the World of Destiny, ranging from low to high-level equipment. The Gold-tier weapons act as a significant dividing line, and beyond that, the rarity increases exponentially with tiers such as Immortal-tier weapons, Celestial-tier weapons, Divine-tier weapons, Sacred-tier weapons, and Forbidden-tier weapons. These ten ranks define the hierarchy of all equipment in the World of Destiny.

From the Gold-tier onwards, starting with Immortal-tier weapons, most of the items gain a unique status, illustrating just how precious any equipment above Gold-tier truly is. An Immortal-tier weapon is the dream of countless players, and owning a Celestial-tier weapon would make someone nearly invincible. Divine-tier weapons shatter the balance, with their occurrence being incredibly rare, while Sacred-tier weapons are legendary, seen by very few. As for Forbidden-tier weapons… they exist only in myth, for the term 『Forbidden』 implies they should never appear to disrupt the balance of the world.

Yet, at the very beginning of the game, Ye Tian Xie held an Immortal-tier weapon in his hands. He could only imagine the shockwaves that would follow if the news of someone obtaining an Immortal-tier weapon were to spread.

Still, this wasn’t what concerned him the most. What he was really thinking about was…why was the item she left behind here? And why did its appearance bring forth this strange girl and the Moment of Eternal Destiny, a weapon missing its power core?

“Oh la la! Master, isn’t it so cool? Hehe, this is a gift I prepared for you. Do you like it?”

Guo Guo’s voice snapped Ye Tian Xie out of his trance, and his mouth twitched slightly… as unbelievable as it may be, wasn’t this originally my weapon? Since when did it become a gift from you?

“Master, can I have a lollipop now? I really want one… I want it so much…”

Little Guo Guo swayed her petite body lightly, and it must be said that the motion of her small frame exuded an almost suffocating beauty. Her voice was so sweet it nearly made Ye Tian Xie’s bones melt. He nearly gave in. This little girl clearly didn’t just want the lollipop she’d heard about from who knows where; she wanted it to satisfy some bizarre pride she had as a loli…

“What is the Fate Core?” Ye Tian Xie asked.

“The Fate Core… ah! If Master doesn’t give me a lollipop, I won’t tell you!” Guo Guo’s lips pouted slightly, and her previously cheerful demeanour instantly changed to one of annoyance.

“…You call me Master, so you should listen to me!”

“Ah? Why does calling you Master mean I have to listen to you?”

“…Do you even know what a Master is?”

“No idea!”

“…Then why do you call me Master?!”

“No idea!”

“!@#￥%…”
