"Please, Host, calm down. Xiaoling is currently activating the task module, points module, shop module, function module, storage module, custom module… "
Xiaoling's voice was incredibly beautiful.
From the overall vocal tone and timbre to the handling of different details, and even every inflection of her voice, everything was perfectly modulated.
It was like an ear massage, providing an ultimate auditory pleasure.
However, Yu Tianyou, who had survived a great disaster and was now blessed with good fortune, was extremely excited at this moment and had no time to appreciate these minor details.
He stared intently at the center of the screen.
On it, a row of square frames was clearly displayed, with bright golden seal script inside them, reading [Task], [Points], [Shop], [Function], [Storage], [Custom], and so on.
With a thought, the task module automatically expanded.
The same rounded-corner frames, the same eye-friendly background color, but the text inside had changed to:
[Guidance Tasks], [Main Tasks], [Side Tasks], [Plot Tasks], [Temporary Tasks]…
Touching it again with his mind, a flood of text instantly covered the entire screen like splashed water.
[Guidance Task One]: Carefully read this system's user guide. Reward: 500x2 points.
No completion deadline, no penalty for failure.
[Guidance Task Two]: Use any system function. Reward: 1000x2 points.
No completion deadline, no penalty for failure.
…
[Guidance Task Ten]: Complete all guidance tasks. Reward: Any basic internal cultivation technique.
No completion deadline, no penalty for failure.
…
[Main Task One]: Pit the Third.
Deadline: Permanent task.
Reward: Points settled in real-time based on the severity of the 'pitting'.
[Main Task Two]: Unify!
Deadline: Before soul annihilation.
Reward: A random divine law compatible with one's own abilities & any Otsutsuki treasure.
[Main Task Three]: Become a God!
Deadline: Before soul annihilation.
Reward: A random divine law compatible with one's own abilities & any Otsutsuki treasure.
…
[Side Task One]: Wealth!
Deadline: Permanent task.
Reward: When wealth value reaches 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000… receive a corresponding level of lottery chance.
[Side Task Two]: Lust!
[Side Task Three]: Fame!
[Side Task Four]: Power!
[Side Task Five]: Authority!
…
After a brief understanding, Yu Tianyou had already made a basic judgment.
First, this system or its creator was a 'hater' just like him. The Main Task 'Pit the Third' was even listed as the first, with becoming a god coming in second. Is this reasonable? Is this appropriate?
How could there be justice? How could there be law? When his third brother worked so hard?
Second, the requirements were relatively lenient.
Unlike systems in old web novels that would casually obliterate the host or threaten to cut off their 'little brother',
The Strongest God King & Naruto System did not have any mandatory tasks. The most severe punishment was probably living until one's natural lifespan ended if one couldn't become a god.
Emmmm,
Everyone dies, some deaths are heavier than Mount Tai, others are heavier than other mountains.
Third, after the two systems merged, some anomalies should have occurred.
For example, all the plot tasks from the Naruto World turned gray, displaying as 'cannot be completed' when clicked.
And in the Douluo Spirit selection, things like Nine-Tails, Sharingan, Kusanagi Sword, etc., also appeared.
Additionally, some task rewards became double, which was simply nice.
And finally, he was about to get rich.
The dazzling array of goods in the System Shop made his mouth water just by looking at them.
There were even heaven-defying items like the Thirty-Six Heavenly Arts, but the number of zeros after them was too many to count—definitely a 'lifetime achievement' series.
But even ordinary items, like the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Divine Arts, just a little bit of them would be enough to walk sideways in this Xuanhuan sewer.
Hmm, if one day he achieves his lofty ambitions, he will famously say, 'I don't eat beef'.
…
Three years later, in the same pavilion,
Yu Tianyou was doing push-ups, his fingers on the ground, arms spread shoulder-width apart, and his back perfectly straight, going up and down.
As he did them, he called out the count.
"99…1,"
"99…2,"
"99…3,"
…
In the system's task module, there was an item called 'Temporary Tasks'.
As the name suggests, these were time-limited tasks randomly triggered based on different situations and encounters.
And ever since the second day of his memory awakening, every morning upon waking, a training task called [Youth Without Regrets] would arrive punctually.
The system interface automatically opened.
In the center of the screen, a man with a bowl cut, thick eyebrows, and a green jumpsuit suddenly popped out, giving a thumbs-up with his right hand, and loudly and enthusiastically shouted:
"The sweat poured out is the glory of youth, only effort will not be betrayed."
Then he smiled proudly, his white teeth gleaming blindingly.
The task required him to train until he broke through his physical endurance limit before midnight that day.
The reward was one full-body physical damage recovery.
Yu Tianyou was a mundane person with no grand ideals.
He merely wanted to hold power over the World, to lie drunk on a beauty's lap, to be envied by others as a true man should be, plus to be invincible, immortal, and have his name spread through the ages.
But he knew that these things would not simply fall into his lap.
Between 'wanting' and 'getting' lay a word: 'doing'.
Before, there was no hope of climbing the great mountain, so he could comfortably slack off. But now, with the system's help, he naturally wanted to taste the scenery at the peak.
So, for three full years, a total of one thousand ninety-six days including leap years, regardless of wind, rain, or seasonal changes, he never gave up on this task.
Even when sick…
Uh, it seemed he had never been sick.
After three consecutive years of persistent training, Yu Tianyou's physique was noticeably more robust than other children his age.
At only six years old, not only was he nearly 1.3 meters tall,
But his arms, shoulders, chest, back, and abdomen all clearly showed streamlined muscle contours, completely unlike a child.
Although his face still carried a hint of childishness, it subtly exuded a resolute and tough aura, making him very heroic.
One could tell at a glance that he was extraordinary.
However, at this moment, his internal strength was clearly squeezed to its absolute limit.
He was panting heavily, so much so that he couldn't even say the count completely at once, only in broken bursts.
His originally smooth, jade-like skin had turned crimson, as if being forged by flames.
A large amount of sweat had also condensed on his surface,
Some of it even evaporated due to the high body temperature caused by intense exercise, rising as wisps of mist.
The rest soaked his clothes completely before dripping down, wetting a large area of the ground.
Although he had reached an extremely desperate point, Yu Tianyou still showed no intention of stopping to rest.
He bent his arms and lowered himself, and after only a brief rest and adjustment, he would force himself back up, trembling continuously.
"99…7,"
"99…8,"
"99…9,"
…
