Chapter 4: Snatching The Opportunity
Soon, Xiao Chen reached Crimson Ridge Mountain and swiftly made his way to the spot where Tang Bingxue was supposed to fight the demonic beast.
After a while, he heard the sounds of clashing and fighting coming from one direction and quickly moved in that direction.
As Xiao Chen approached the battlefield, he slowed down his pace and observed a beautiful girl engaged in a fierce battle with an Ice Glazing Tiger.
’There she is!’ Instantly, he recognized her as Tang Bingxue.
’According to the plot, Tang Bingxue should have been at half-step Mysterious Platform Realm’ He observed the battle with a thoughtful face. ’While the Ice Glazing Tiger was a genuine Mysterious Platform level.
As the battle reached its climax, both of them prepared their most powerful moves.
Tang Bingxue activated a secret art and used a magic talisman, while the Ice Glazing Tiger seemed to be enveloped in a chilling ice aura, freezing the area around it.
When they finally clashed, the impact created shockwaves and a cloud of smoke that devastated trees and vegetation within a ten-mile radius.
As the smoke cleared, the Ice Glazing Tiger was sent flying and its body was covered in deep scars.The tiger crashed into a cluster of trees and ultimately took its last breath.
Tang Bingxue won the battle. However, she lay on the ground unconscious and her body covered in a layer of pink mist.
After witnessing this scene, Xiao Chen first rushed to the demonic beast’s corpse and cut out the magic crystal. He then lifted the unconscious Tang Jingxue and hurried in a specific direction.

A few minutes earlier, Ye Fan was hunting demonic beasts when he received a voice transmission from his jade pendant.
’Ye Fan, hurry to the north!’
’A battle is taking place there. It seems both sides are evenly matched’
"Okay, Senior!" Ye Fan replied with a excited face and quickly made his way to the north.
Since entering the forest, he had felt an urgent pull, as if something was calling for him. He knew this feeling very well because he had experienced it several times before losing his cultivation.
An opportunity!
Now, arriving at the ravaged battlefield, Ye Fan only found a demonic beast’s corpse and its magic crystal was dug out.
After searching the area, he turned to Rongmei for an explanation, wanting to see if she had sensed something but she was equally puzzled.
"Perhaps the other side won the battle, but they must have paid a price," she said after thinking for a moment.
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan’s eyes dimmed, and he experienced a hollow sensation, as if something precious was slipping away from him.
This was the first time he felt this way.
It had never happened even when he lost his cultivation.
"Ye Fan, don’t be discouraged," Rongmei said, noticing his reaction. "If you want to enhance your strength, use the technique I taught you and fight against the demonic beasts."
Her words seem to have worked and Ye Fan was quickly cheered up.
He recalled how extraordinary the technique was. Although he had only fought one battle since entering the mountain range, he could already feel his realm loosening, showing signs of a breakthrough.

On the other side, Xiao Chen discovered a secluded cave and gently laid Tang Jingxue on a stone bed that he had crafted with the help of his spiritual energy.
Just then, he heard a system prompt echoing in his mind.
[Ding! Host has prevented the chosen one from meeting his future companion and plundered 400 destiny value.]
A delighted smile spread across his face at the news, but as he noticed the relatively small amount of destiny value he had gained, he understood that heaven’s will would soon arrange an opportunity for Ye Fan to reunite with Tang Jingxue.
In the entire plot, Tang Jingxue’s support would be invaluable to Ye Fan, even more so than Rongmei’s.
As he thought of this, he activated the ’Villain’s Eye’ on the unconscious Tang Jingxue.
[Name: Tang Jingxue
Status: Saintess of the Peerless Heaven Sword Sect and daughter of the Palace Lord of the Absolute Yin Palace in the upper realm.
Cultivation: Half-step mysterious platform realm
Physique: Divine Charm Physique [Divine] and Eternal Frost Celestial Yin Physique [Extreme] [Unawakened]
Destiny value: 8700]
Xiao Chen’s expression turned into shock as he saw Tang Jingxue’s panel. Although she excelled in every aspect compared to Ye Fan in the plot, she was not the main character.
Seeing her destiny value was double that of Ye Fan’s, he was very puzzled.
After thinking for a moment, he brushed off these thoughts.
There were no clues about it in the plot, and it would be pointless to waste time thinking about it.
’System, if I subdue Tang Jingxue instead of Ye Fan, what will happen to her destiny value?’ Focusing on the current situation, Xiao chen asked a question to the system.
[Ding! If the Host can subdue her, then both of them receive the blessing of half of their destiny value.]
After hearing the system’s words, he called out ’status panel’ in his mind, and a semi-transparent blue panel appeared.
[Name: Xiao Chen
Status: Inner disciple of the Peerless Heaven Sword Sect
Cultivation: Divine Awakening Realm Early Stage
Physique: Innate Demonic and Divine Immortal Physique [Unknown]
Cultivation Technique: Peerless Heaven Sword Code, Shadow Breezing Stride, Infernal Sword Technique
Weapons and Equipment: Sky Burning Fire Sword, Low-grade Storage Ring
Destiny value: 400
Destiny Villain Value: 400]
Seeing his panel, Xiao Chen smiled wryly. If he hadn’t acquired 400 destiny points, his destiny value would have been zero.
Seeing the ’Destiny Villain Value,’ he asked the system for an explanation about its uses.
[Ding! Host can use Destiny Villain Value in the system mall.]
Hearing this, he opened the system mall, where a variety of products ranging from pills, cultivation techniques, weapons, and others were available.
He noticed that products above the Dao Comprehension Realm were unavailable.
’System, Why are the items above dao comprehension realm are unavailable?’ He inquired.
[Ding! If host can buy those items, He has to fulfill one of two requirements for it]
’What are they?’ He asked with a curious smile.
[Ding! Host needs to hunt two Chosen ones or ascend to the Middle Three Thousand Dao Realm to access those higher-level products.]
’So, You are basically saying that I can’t buy them now?’ Xiao Chen was disappointed to hear its words.
To be honest, He didn’t have much hope from the beginning.
Afterward, he turned his attention to Tang Jingxue.
Looking at those pink mists, he knew it was the cause of her Divine Charm Physique.
After turning 18, Tang Jingxue would enter a state of heat, requiring a man’s yang energy.
She was unwilling to do that.
So, she had been using the pills to suppress her heat.
The cold and unapproachable temperament was due to the cultivation technique her mother gave and she suggested finding a man, as suppressing it was not a long-term solution.
Only in the later stage of the plot, would she awaken the Eternal Frost Celestial Yin Physique and easily suppresses her divine charm physique.
Recently, her cultivation had reached the half-mysterious core realm, and pills could no longer suppress her heat.
As a result, she decided to hunt ice-type demonic beasts in the mysterious core realm and use magic crystals to suppress them.
In the plot, Ye Fan would treat her with magic crystals, but Xiao chen wasn’t doing to do that.
If he did, the best outcome would be a positive impression.
he have another method that would leave more impact without creating a bad impression.
He opened the system mall and searched for a yang energy transfer technique.
As he was exploring techniques, he could only confirm that the system mall had everything as it claimed. Shortly after, he purchased a technique called ’Exquisite Yang Essence Transmission’ that cost 200 Destiny villain value.
