The remnant soul of the God-King was no challenge for Gu Changge to consume with his Devouring Immortal Demon Technique.
With his eyes closed, he calmly savored the experience. Meanwhile, he flipped through the memories of the so-called "God-King of Slaying Heavens."
For a powerful individual who had been reincarnated as a useless "Child of Destiny," the most crucial aspect of his rebirth lay in his previous life's mastery of divine abilities and techniques, as well as his extensive combat and cultivation experience.
Aside from that, what else could there be?
However, now all of it belonged to Gu Changge. The Devouring Immortal Demon Technique could devour not only the origin of kings but also divine souls and anything else without exception.
The reason he had asked Lin Qiuhan to leave was primarily to keep the demonic technique hidden from anyone else. Soul-searching methods in the higher realms were numerous, and he didn't trust anyone besides himself.
"Devouring a remnant soul can increase my primordial spirit's strength. This feeling... is truly unmatched." Gu Changge mused inwardly. "This forbidden demonic technique—if exposed, no one could protect me…"
He could feel his primordial spirit growing rapidly, surpassing even many King-level experts. Gu Changge couldn't help but whisper, his mind buzzing with the system's notifications.
Ding! The Child of Destiny's first kill has been completed. The rules for clearing the luck points and dropping rewards have been triggered. Calculating...
"Congratulations, master! You have received an additional Heaven's Path reward chest, 100 extra luck points, and 500 Destiny Value."
"First Kill reward chest being settled."
"Luck point exchange feature unlocked."
"Master's luck points can also be exchanged for Destiny Value, at a ratio of 1:10."
Upon hearing these prompts, Gu Changge's interest was piqued. In addition to the extra Heaven's Path reward chest, he had received a First Kill reward chest as well.
Luck point exchange feature?
So, his own luck points could be used as a universal currency?
This was a nice surprise. After all, burning one's luck to traverse through worlds in order to preserve life had always been a popular theory. As a villain, if he encountered insurmountable crises in the future, converting his luck points into Destiny Value might just solve everything.
Of course, Gu Changge wouldn't use this feature casually. At least for now, he could tell that these luck points were extremely important. A Child of Destiny would be finished without them.
"Open the First Kill reward chest." Gu Changge ordered.
He was curious about what he could draw, as this was a bit like opening a gacha in his past life—purely based on luck.
With a flash of golden light before his eyes, a golden treasure chest appeared, and with a loud bang, it opened!
"Ding! Congratulations, master! Your luck is off the charts! You have received the following:
—3 Luck Plundering Cards
—1 Fragmented Third-World Seed
—1 System Settlement Critical Hit Card."
The system's cold, mechanical voice echoed.
"Luck Plundering Card?"
Gu Changge was intrigued. He looked at the card's description, which detailed how it could plunder the luck of a Child of Destiny with a certain probability of failure, depending on the state of the Child's luck.
If successful, the Child of Destiny's luck points would be reduced to zero, and the plundered luck points would be transferred to the user.
If it failed, there would be no result.
"System Settlement Critical Hit Card? During reward settlements, you may randomly receive a critical hit, with possibilities of 0.1x, 1x, or even 10x or 100x multipliers…"
Gu Changge checked the function of the other card, clicking his tongue in mild admiration.
It seemed to be another luck-based item, but judging by the luck he had so far, he felt quite fortunate. He planned to save this for the next time he killed Ye Chen.
As for the Luck Plundering Card, it seemed like a useful item. After all, if he wanted to directly gain the luck points of a Child of Destiny, he would need to repeatedly suppress them. The Luck Plundering Card allowed him to bypass this process and simply steal their luck directly.
Of course, there was still a chance of failure.
Gu Changge checked the price of the Luck Plundering Card in the system store—10,000 Destiny Value for one card.
This was no small cost.
In other words, he would need to guarantee earning at least 2,000 luck points to break even. Otherwise, it would be a massive loss.
Still, Gu Changge speculated that the Children of Destiny he would encounter in the future would not have such low luck points. After all, the world he was in now, the Tianqing Realm, was incredibly weak—barely a small Thousand-World level. Stronger beings, like those in the Middle Thousand Realms, would require a God-King level of cultivation to break through the space barriers.
The realm he was in was merely a connection point between these smaller realms, a complex and intricate hub.
Then, Gu Changge opened the other Heaven's Path Reward Chest. He guessed that this would contain something related to the Child of Destiny.
A flash of golden light lit up before him, and he heard the system prompt:
"Ding! Congratulations, master! You have received the Destiny Child Halo. This halo has automatically transformed into the Destiny Villain Halo."
"Congratulations, master! You have also obtained the Heart of the God-King…"
"Destiny Villain Halo?"
Gu Changge paid little attention to the rest of the rewards. He was primarily focused on understanding the effects of this halo, and as he read the description, his interest grew.
"Destiny Villain: With Destiny upon you, you are the destined villain. Clear the luck of the Children of Destiny, and ignore their luck disparity…"
"Ignore the luck disparity? What does that mean?" Gu Changge raised an eyebrow and asked the system.
"When the luck disparity is too large, it can cause a backlash of luck. If the master's strength exceeds the Child of Destiny by too much, but their luck is still far inferior, the Heaven's Path will protect the Child of Destiny and inflict a luck backlash on the master..."
The system's explanation made sense.
"So, when I first transmigrated, my luck was too low, but my strength was too strong. Since the Heaven's Path couldn't lower my intelligence, it caused a luck backlash to protect the Child of Destiny…" Gu Changge muttered to himself.
Gu Changge was very clear about his current situation.
Now that his luck points had increased, dealing with someone like Ye Chen or Lin Tian would no longer pose any risk of luck backlash. However, what if he encountered a similar situation in the future?
The Destiny Villain Halo had solved that potential issue, which was a great relief.
As for the other reward—the Heart of the God-King—Gu Changge casually glanced at it. It was the cultivation mentality of a God-King who had spent tens of thousands of years in the God-King Realm.
To him, Lin Tian, the Child of Destiny, had a weak mentality. It was nothing special.
But since it was a system reward, Gu Changge didn't think much of it. There shouldn't be any problems with it.
He directly chose to merge with the Heart of the God-King. The moment he did, he felt as though his entire being was enveloped in a warm light.
His consciousness became slightly hazy, as if he had immersed himself in the experiences of tens of thousands of years in a single moment. He seemed to witness numerous events and scenes unfold before him—time stretched endlessly, like a fleeting moment of reincarnation.
But soon, everything became clear again.
Gu Changge furrowed his brows.
It seemed that his mentality hadn't changed much. However, the way he perceived and thought about things had definitely shifted significantly.
All things considered, it was a vast improvement compared to before. After all, as a transmigrator, though he adapted quickly, there was still a process. With the help of the Heart of the God-King, it saved him a lot of time.
The thing about mentality was that it was much like luck—abstract and elusive, something that each person understood in their own way.
