Wang Wei looked at the innate treasures in his hand and a smile. He decided to use this scheme one more time before stopping. After all, the Martial Supreme World was a Heaven Will World; he knew some beings could detect his actions if he continued.
'While I wait for the customer to return, let's begin with plan B.'
He activated his Soul Network Ability again and searched for Sons of Destiny in the Martial Supreme World. Unfortunately, based on his divination, there might not be one.
It was understandable as most Sons of Destiny appeared once a world was in great danger. The ones with this title without accomplishing anything in return are scarce.
So, after searching for a few days, Wang Wei decided to take another approach. He searched for individuals with high cultivation talent, Willpower, and a decent state of mind but whose luck was terrible.
In the world of cultivation, more often than not, luck is more important than even talent. Someone might be talented, but because of their poor luck, they are never discovered by a cultivation sect or faction.
Or even after starting cultivation, they encountered a battle between True Monarchs and died while going out for the first time outside the sect. Most sects will not give all their resources to someone, so without fortunate encounters, these types of people cannot cultivate peacefully.
In most Heaven Will Worlds, Emperor Lineage, Supreme Land, and even Holy Lands will not accept disciples with poor Qi Luck–no matter how talented they are unless the sect is willing to go to extreme lengths to reverse that disciple's fate.
After a few hours of searching, Wang Wei found many individuals, but he picked 5, each from a different Great Thousands World. Then, he summoned them to the Mind Palace.
An older man with a slight medicinal herb scent appeared in a grey space. Although confused, his years of experience made him quickly calm down before assessing the situation.
He found himself sitting on a table with a label: The Doctor.
He frowned slightly before looking around and noticing four other people who appeared as confused as him, despite a few trying to hide it. He looked at the label before each of them:
The Butcher, the Scholar, the Mad King, and the Assassin.
The Doctor could analyze some information just by these names or titles. The room remained quiet for a few minutes as everyone secretly observed one another.
However, he decided it would be best to ask questions to figure out what was happening. Nevertheless, before he could say anything, he sensed something as he detected another presence.
It was a handsome young man with grey hair and eyes. And the moment the Doctor laid eyes on him, he seemed to have witnessed his fate and the fate of his entire world. But upon closer look, it was as if nothing occurred.
"Welcome; you can call me the Lord of Destiny. If any of you do not wish to be here, you can say so, and I will return you to where you came from."
No one said anything but looked at each other.
"Sir Immortal, I mean Lord of Destiny, can you first tell us why we are here?" the Doctor asked with great courage.
"No problem. All of you here are people born with great talent, wisdom, Willpower, and even cultivated a decent state of mind. Unfortunately, fate did not favor you and did not bless you with any luck. So, you're destined to be ordinary mortals your entire life."
The others remained calm, but the Mad King and the Butcher reacted. The latter clenched his hands tightly underneath his chair while the Mad King looked at Wang Wei with uncontrollable madness in his eyes.
"As you can expect, I will give you a chance to change your fate. However, nothing is free in this world. If you accept my offer, know you will immediately owe me two innate treasures."
"Sir, what if we refuse?" asked the Doctor.
"I will send you out without any memories of today's encounter."
Everyone remained quiet, thinking about their decision.
"I have a more important question, Sir. What is an innate treasure?" asked the scholar.
"I forgot most of you don't know anything about the cultivation world."
Wang Wei snapped his finger, and basic knowledge of cultivation appeared in their minds: including the cultivation realms, the classification of treasures, pills, talismans, and arrays, and even the classification of worlds.
With this knowledge, these five finally understood how high of debt they would undertake. There is the possibility that their entire world did not have a single innate treasure.
"I agree," said the mad king, without hesitation.
"Me as well," added the Butcher. Then, the remaining three accepted the offer after a few minutes of pondering.
"Excellent," commented Wang Wei before waving his hand to hand each of them a contract. And after they signed it, he smiled before giving them a booklet.
"The core issue that you all face is the lack of luck. This [Luck Stealing Art] is a secret technique that will allow you to steal the luck of others to supplement yours."
After hearing this, the Doctor and the Scholar frowned, while the others tried to hide their excitement.
"Sir, do we have to steal other people's luck?" asked the Doctor. He has spent his entire life treating people and does not want to harm anyone if he does not have to.
"Yes," replied Wang Wei. "The cultivation world is cruel; if you do not step on others, they will step on you. Now, if you have reservations about using this technique, you can always target criminals.
"I will warn you: this technique will eventually create a backlash from Heavenly Dao. So, be on the lookout for that and ask for help when necessary."
With Wang Wei's understanding of the Laws of Luck, he realized one of the reasons for Zhou Shu's death back in the Heavenly Profound Continent was the backlash of forcefully becoming the Son of Destiny.
"Second warning, this technique is free, but from now on, all techniques or resources exchanged from this place will require Karma Points, which you can acquire by exchanging resources and techniques from your home world."
Wang Wei paused to give them some time to process this information. He also injected into their minds the things they can exchange for Karma points, which include Luck, Lifespan, World Source, and other things.
"Since I am in a good mood, I will personally customize cultivation techniques for each of you. Let's begin with you, doctor: do you have any specific requirement?"
"As long as I can continue to save lives."
"In that case, a technique based on the Medicine Dao with the Five Elements at the core. I would add Yin and Yang, but you can't afford the price."
Wang Wei had many cultivation techniques from Zhen Chao, so he took one with the five elements and modified it to suit the doctor, while also adding a lot to his understanding of the human body and soul. As a powerful body refiner, he was also a great doctor.
"For this technique, you owe me 16 million Karma Points."
The Doctor looked at him, not knowing what to say.
"Don't be like that. I will give you the first three chapters, allowing you to cultivate the Divine Altar Realm. After that, you can change to another technique, but you still have to pay the price of the three chapters.
"Next is you, scholar. Any requirement?"
"My dream is to one day be like the Ancient Sages, suppressing demons with one word and saving all sentient beings."
"In that case, your technique would involve the Literary Spirit and Righteous Qi."
Wang Wei also modified a technique for him. His mother had studied the concept of Literary Spirit for the past thousand years to prepare for the plan to become Emperor. So, Wang Wei was quite knowledgeable on the subject.
As for Righteous Qi, it was connected to the concept of Literary Spirit. Furthermore, he learned a little from his battle with Bai Han.
"Your total is 12.6 million Karma Points. But like the doctor, you get the first three chapters for free. Next is the Mad King?"
" Lord of Destiny, I want the Great Sui Dynasty to be the only ruler of my world. I want all these sects to regret treating me like a puppet."
"So, you want to walk the path of Sovereign? That's easy. A total of 5 million Karma Point."
The mad king frowned after hearing this.
"Not satisfied?"
"If the price corresponds to the value, then I'm not satisfied," replied the mad king with determination.
"Well, who am I to stop you if you want to drown in debt? I will add the ability to summon an undead army only loyal to you, and a body refining techniques that require the use of luck called [The Sovereign Golden Body].
"Now, the price is 23 million Karma Point."
The Mad King smiled before readily accepting his technique.
"Now, the butcher. What do you want?"
"I want something based on emotions."
"Oh, since you like to kill people for fun, I thought you would want something related to killing."
As soon as he said these words, many people looked at the butcher with weird eyes, especially the Doctor, who looked disgusted.
"What I enjoy is the emotions released by my victims before their death; I don't care much for the act of killing."
"Very well. Your technique will be based on the Seven Emotions and Six Desires. Your total is 18 million Karma Points. Now, Assassin."
"Sir, what do you recommend?"
Everyone was slightly surprised by the female voice since Assassin covered her face with a hood and had a flat figure.
"I recommend either shadow or space attribute."
"Can I have both?"
"If you don't mind the debt."
She only nodded her head.
"Your total is 32 million Karma Points."
The mad kind frowned after hearing this. "Lord, I want to add more stuff to my technique."
Wang Wei's lisp twitched as he realized this king was truly mad; he wanted the most powerful or most expensive technique out of everyone, no matter the price.
"Fine, I'll add the power of Stars Acupoints into your technique for a new total of 54 million Karma Points."
The mad king nodded with a smile while everyone looked at him with weird eyes. But he did not care.
"Normally, we will not communicate in this manner, but in the form of Group Chats."
Everyone was confused, but Wang Wei waved his hand to dismiss them.
The mad king opened his eyes on his throne with a book in his hand. However, he paid no attention to it as some information had appeared in his mind. He closed his eyes again while concentrating; then, he saw something strange inside his mind:
Reversing Fate Group Chat.
Mad King: "Hello, my fellow Daoist."
Doctor: "What a strange method of communicating."
Scholar: "What's truly fascinating is we are communicating across Worlds."
Mad King: "Why aren't the others saying anything?"
Scholar: "They appeared to be online."
Mad King: "Forget them. Is the Lord present?"
Doctor: "If you focus on his name, it said he is offline."
Scholar: "For some reason, I feel relief."
Meanwhile, Wang Wei was watching this chat despite his status. However, he was currently breathing a little harder, with his complexion slightly pale. To appear more mysterious and powerful, he used Time Laws to create a time dilation to make these people's techniques.
So, although it appeared he did it instantly, it took him a few years to modify each technique.
'Alright, let's see what benefit these people will bring me. I should probably create a fake account to better communicate with them.'
