Chapter 72: Chapter 72 - Why me?
"System?
"Yes, Host?
"Well, where's the body refining pool you were talking about? Wasn't it supposed to be in the dark moon forest?"
"Yes. Host. But you have to remember, that there's a chance you may find it and if it's not in your fate, no matter how much you try, you won't find it."
"Sigh.... What a useless system. Don't others have those cool gacha system or those sign-in systems? Why is my golden finger like this?"
System 985 truly felt a little speechless at the behaviour of his host Lin Fan or should he say 'Lin Dong'?
System 985 is an assistant system assigned by the will of the heaven to protect the heaven's sons and daughters.
There are various types of system ranging from gacha systems to sign in or auxiliary system or pet system, luck system and many more.
The will of the heaven is a mysterious power which is a complete different entity from the world's consciousness.
The world consciousness is like an indifferent individual but also an extremely fair person who keeps the world in check and prevent it from heading towards its destruction.
And the heaven's will is likes it's naughty child who is fair but sometimes does bad things and one of the trouble it causes by assigning the role of heavenly sons and daughters to various individuals.
And it doesn't stop there but also assigns these weird systems with almost cheat like powers to help them practically walkthrough their whole life in easy mode, at least in this plane of existence.
Lin Fan or should I say Lin Dong who was actually a very average high schooler in the modern world and used to get bullied, shut himself in his room to always read manhuas, comics and webnovels and always stayed in his delusions of getting transmigrated.
Then at the age of 30, he still didn't try to achieve anything and just played games and read novels in his room suddenly found himself in this world with a new system.
Apparently he had died because of an heart attack and was chosen by heaven's will to transmigrate in the body of Lin Fan who was a trash who couldn't cultivate and committed suicide one day.
Just like any other transmigrator, he got a system and after coming into the body of Lin, recieved his memory and turned his life around, got proclaimed as a young genius, became the best suddenly and became the centre of everyone's attention.
As for the reason why heavenly will does something like this is currently unknown but it definitely has a purpose.
Now Lin Fan or Lin Dong came into this dark moon forest after learning from the system that there might actually be a body refining pool in this forest, somewhere which is an extremely rare treasure.
Probably even above mystic grade and the reason is that, it could actually give birth to a heavenly constitution and an extremely powerful one at that 'The Ten Thousand Poison Immune Body'.
Even though it has poison in it's name, this constitution isn't limited to just poison and has many other benifits.
From the moment, Lin Fan came into this world and binded with the system 985, he has had a pretty easy journey.
He got a system shop, where he can buy even a mystic grade product if he can have enough points.
At the start, he got his biggest golden finger which was that he could convert money into qi directly which in turn helps him level up like some character in a game.
And in just over a month, He has achieved foundation building, whereas even a genius and hard worker like Su Yubing took years.
Anyone who sees these heavenly sons and daughters will probably feel unfair but can't do anything.
But this time, he met a stumbling block and couldn't find the body refining pool nor matter how much he searched.
"Sigh... Why don't you just help me search it's location system?"
"Sorry, host. We as the system would only be able to assist you but the matters of treasures are beyond our capabilities.
They can only be found by host, himself."
"Yayayay... Anyway, this girl is quite hot. Xu Yan , is it. She would be good for being a concubine in my harem.
Hahaha... Never thought in my life that I would actually be a protagonist and get my own golden finger.
I got my own childhood sweetheart who listens to everything I say and she even has an extremely mysterious and profound background.
More importantly, now that I'm a protagonist. I need to be a man of culture and grow my harem to at least a thousand.
I wonder, when I would be able to meet those heavenly beauties.
Ahhh.. just thinking about those beauties fighting for me in my harem makes me soo excited."
"Yes Host. Yes. If you liked being a king so much, you can change to a harem system in the future."
"Ohh! Harem system? What's that?"
"Well, host, it's a system which will make you more power, the more women you have."
"Ohh!! Damn. That's a crazy system. How many points do I need for that?"
"One million."
Looking at the pitiful amount of points, Lin Fan just scratched his head in annoyance and didn't say anything.
"Anyway, Why did that Su Yubing girl have to cancel the engagement? She was such a good catch."
"Well host. She's outside the influence of our system as she will only serve as a villainous side character who regrets cancelling the engagement after seeing the protagonist's awesomeness.
Her regret will probably start after the three year duel you two have set on."
Thinking of the day, Su Yubing came to break the engagement, Lin Fan was still in the process of adapting to his new life and when he heard that she has come to break the engagement, he declared for a three year duel arrangement in exchange for breaking the engagement.
Su Yubing naturally agreed without any change in her expressions but for Lin Fan, he felt that she was looking down on him and shouted a lot of words towards her.
"Hah.. woman. How dare you break the engagement. I will show you what regret feels like." Lin Fan said to himself while having a weird grin on his normal face.
'Why do lord God always chooses these weird men as heavenly sons. Sigh.. assisting heavenly daughters is much better." System 985 thought.

On the other side,
Mo Yuxin took Su Yubing infront of the body refining pool and Su Yubing slowly opened her eyes and let out a small breath.
By the time, Mo Yuxin carried her here, she has already recovered most of her strength and the poison has also been eliminated by her.
She looked around in Mo Yuxin's arms and tried to find where she was but one this that caught her attention was the body Refining pool.
From the outside, this pool looks normal except that the water in it is milky white without a single moment of vibration on the surface.
But Su Yubing instinctually felt a profound power emanating from the pool and knew that whatever it was, it's definitely a rare treasure.
"Where are we?" Su Yubing asked while still in Mo Yuxin's arms.
"This is a body refining pool and refining this pool will give you a heavenly constitution called 'The Ten Thousand Poison Immune Body'." Mo Yuxin stated calmly but the reciever definitely wasn't.
After all, giving birth to a heavenly constitution is of the highest grade among treasure and is only seen once every 10,000 or even 100,000 years.
Most of the time, these treasures form in such weird places that the world of cultivation can't even find it most of the time.
Su Yubing was naturally surprised but quickly calmed her emotions.
"That... Is an extremely rare treasure. "Su Yubing said.
"Yes. It is." Mo Yuxin said and put her down and took her towards the edges of the pool.
"It's yours."
"Huh??
Su Yubing thought she heard wrong and asked her again and turned to look at Mo Yuxin.
Seeing the calm look in her eyes as if she was giving away some insignificant treasure made her feel mixed emotions.
She thought maybe she was joking, after all it was such a precious treasure.
"Why is it mine? Shouldn't you use it?"
"Well, it's pretty useless to me as I already have my own heavenly constitution. So you should use it."
Su Yubing didn't know whether to believe her words or be happy for getting such a treasure.
After all, getting this constitution will ensure a better chance of survival in this world.
Especially after what she experienced after all those years.
Her heart grew a little cold after thinking about those memories but she quickly calmed herself and focused on what's ahead.
"But... Why would you give it to me?" Su Yubing asked Mo Yuxin, to which she just looked at Su Yubing with the same calm look in her eyes but Su Yubing felt a little overwhelmed by them for no reason.
