Chapter 1

In the year 2119 AD, humanity began to step into the stars, thus embarking on a journey to conquer the universe.

Over the following millennia, human technology and civilization developed rapidly like a snowball, eventually leading to the vast star fleets conquering the entire galaxy, ruling over hundreds of thousands of life-bearing planets, with a population in the trillions.

It wasn't until the year 6398 AD that an accident led humanity to discover a mysterious star gate deep in the cosmos.

After a period of sealed exploration, the Human Federation discovered that behind the star gate lay a wondrous dimension transcending the universe—known as the "Myriad Worlds."

The Myriad Worlds consist of countless planes, ranging from technological, martial, mystical, immortal, and magical realms, among others, with an endless variety from low to high.

After turning sixteen, every person can enter this wondrous Myriad Worlds and receive a virtual panel, thus beginning their search for boundless opportunities.

Over the next ten thousand years, human civilization gave birth to countless supreme beings through the star gate, with the descendants of humanity spreading across the myriad star rivers.

In the Myriad Worlds, there are infinite possibilities. You can vie for supremacy, engage in bloody battles in small worlds, and become a supreme emperor.

You might also achieve the Dao of the Great Emperor, becoming invincible and unparalleled, silencing the world with your might.

Or you could become an immortal true immortal, living forever without aging or dying.

However, more often than not, people end up perishing in the Myriad Worlds, for this is not a game; everyone has only one chance, and death means everything is over.

...

"Welcome to the Myriad Worlds."

Chen Mu sat in the reincarnation pool, facing a floating virtual panel.

On the panel was a wheel, the Talent Wheel. This is the only chance to draw a talent when entering the Myriad Worlds, considered a golden finger for humans entering this realm.

"Whether I can make a name for myself in the Myriad Worlds depends on this draw."

The Talent Wheel is the greatest opportunity to change one's fate. If you can draw a top-tier talent, you will instantly become a favored child of heaven.

Of course, drawing a top-tier or even a world-class talent is one in a billion. Most people are grateful to draw talents that enhance strength, speed, or other practical abilities.

"I don't have high expectations. A Chaos Body or a Primordial Sage Body would be enough."

"If that's not possible, a transcendent insight or full potential in bone structure would also do."

At the moment of deciding his fate, Chen Mu couldn't help but get excited and think wildly.

He washed his face with the water from the reincarnation pool, rubbed his hands nervously, and then activated the wheel.

As the wheel's speed gradually slowed, his heart raced.

Talents are ranked from high to low in four grades: Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow. Each grade is further divided into four levels: Lower, Middle, Upper, and Supreme.

As for whether there are higher talents above the Supreme Heaven grade, Chen Mu doesn't know, as the Federation only publicly acknowledges these sixteen grades.

According to data from trillions of people across the galaxy, the probability of drawing a Lower Yellow-grade talent is ninety percent, and the probability decreases by about ten times for each higher grade.

As the pointer's speed began to slow, Chen Mu couldn't help but widen his eyes, feeling restless. This is a matter of a lifetime, and he couldn't afford to be careless.

"Supreme Martial Talent, not bad, why doesn't it stop!"

"Upper Yellow-grade Innate Divine Strength, born with a thousand pounds of strength, one of the best talents in the early stages, stop, stop, stop..."

"Lower Yellow-grade Subordinate Knight Talent, the worst, it might take ten years of cultivation to become an apprentice knight, don't stop."

"Upper Mystic-grade Fire-Wood Spirit Root, the best Earth Spirit Root, a genius in alchemy and artifact refinement in the cultivation world, it passed again."

Seeing one good talent after another pass by, Chen Mu felt a great deal of pain, especially the Upper Mystic-grade Spirit Root, which is an Earth Spirit Root in the cultivation world.

It's worth noting that even the Heaven Spirit Root in the cultivation world, a top-tier talent that guarantees reaching the Yuan Ying stage if not prematurely killed, is only a Supreme Mystic-grade talent.

Finally, the pointer slowly passed the Upper Mystic-grade Spirit Root and landed on a dark black square.

"What is this?"

Chen Mu couldn't help but frown slightly. Yellow-grade talents are in yellow squares, Mystic-grade in purple, Earth-grade in gold, and Heaven-grade in red, but he had never heard of a black talent.

"Congratulations, you have obtained the talent—Evolution."

After drawing the talent, he quickly opened the attribute panel to check.

Name: Chen Mu

Race: Star Human

Lifespan: 16/86

Realm: None

Bone Structure: 1

Insight: 1

Skills: None

Cultivation Techniques: None

Talent: Evolution (Unique)

Evolution: Consume resources to evolve all things, a supreme talent.

The simple and brutal description of the Evolution talent made Chen Mu's pupils constrict. If the literal meaning is true, then it absolutely deserves the title of a supreme talent.

"Supreme, a grade I've never heard of, it seems a bit overpowered."

"I'll give it a try."

He tried clicking on the bone structure, and a message popped up on the panel.

"Evolving bone structure requires ten taels of silver, do you want to evolve?"

"Yes."

"Evolution failed, insufficient silver."

The message made Chen Mu's eyes twitch involuntarily.

Unfortunately, things from the outside world cannot be brought into the Myriad Worlds. Otherwise, in this era of extreme material abundance, ten taels of silver would be a small matter, let alone ten thousand taels.

"Talent draw successful, random teleportation in progress, please prepare."

As a voice sounded, Chen Mu felt his body lighten, and suddenly he felt the world spinning and the stars shifting.

"How dare you be lazy and sleep?"

"Ah!"

A sharp pain suddenly shot through his back, and he woke up abruptly to see a muscular man wielding a whip and striking him.

Chen Mu gritted his teeth and endured the blows. The man seemed unwilling to kill him, stopping after a dozen lashes.

"Go dig for silver quickly, or I'll beat you to death on the spot."

The man cursed and walked away with his whip.

Once he was gone, Chen Mu, ignoring the whip marks on his body, sat on the ground, gritting his teeth and began to recall a memory that wasn't his own.

It turned out he had been teleported to this world by the star gate, replacing a villager in an unnamed mountain village and acquiring his memories. Ten days ago, the Spirit Rock Fort attacked the unnamed mountain village, killing his parents and capturing him to mine silver on the mountain.

According to his memory, this is a small silver mine, nearly depleted, occupied by the small Spirit Rock Fort.

The Spirit Rock Fort is a small bandit stronghold with only thirty to fifty bandits, most of whom are martial artists at the first or second level of Body Cultivation.

The second-in-command, Zuo Qiu, and the third-in-command, Zhang Bao, are both at the third level of Body Cultivation, while the chief, Zhang Hu, is at the fourth level.

Each of the first three levels of Body Cultivation increases strength by two hundred pounds, and a third-level Body Cultivation martial artist gains an additional six hundred pounds of strength.

The third-in-command, Zhang Bao, guards the mine, making it almost impossible for him to escape. Thinking of his situation, Chen Mu couldn't help but frown.

"Looks like I need to come up with a plan."
