Chapter 538: The system’s true identity (part-1)

"Orb of Creation"

"Orb of elements"

"Orb of Chaos"

"Orb of Time"

"Orb of Divinity"

"Orb of Malevolence"

"Orb of Cosmos"

"These are seven cosmic orbs that formed when Pangu died after creating the universe.

The seven of them are scattered all over the universe and countless people went on searching it for billions of years and are still in their search.

One of those orbs was accidentally swallowed by a mortal and became the Chaos Lord.

The Chaos Lord was strong.

He was so strong that deities, beasts, demons, and mortals trembled in his presence.

More than a hundred million years ago, after the Jade Emperor eventually killed him, he stored the orb of chaos in the heavenly palace's treasury, but as it started corrupting the other weapons, His Majesty had no choice but to appoint the protectors.

Naturally, everyone wanted the treasure, and wars were constantly waged upon the heavenly palace as well as the orb's protectors.

So, in order to hide it, his majesty passed it to me and placed a law that no one above Saint Realm would be able to reach here. Even if they do, their strength would be suppressed to the immortal realm.

There was the Orb of Time hidden deep inside this planet's core, which further helped me to hide this orb.

But, I was afraid of the powers from higher planes. There were experts who could just end my life with a snap of their fingers.

Hence, twenty-two years ago, I hid this body into a baby born in the Phoenix Empire who is fated to be with the man of the Great Prophecy. I thought he who is destined to guard the Four Guardian beasts shall be qualified to protect the Orb of Chaos.

But right now, some powerful forces appeared to have learned of its existence. I need to get back to the Heavenly Palace to make a report and this will make the mortal plane vulnerable for a few months in your time, as the guardian beasts aren't ready. You will see far more powerful enemies in the upcoming months. With the loss of three demigods, this planet's protection has only become far weaker.

That is why I ask for your cooperation in extracting the orb from her. I will then hide it somewhere else. This is the best way to keep Song Yue out of danger. As compensation for the dangers you faced so far, I will grant her some of my true divine energy and increase her potential. So, you have to make the decision whether to give it away or guard it forever."

As the others stayed silent, Mark looked at the beauty in his arms and opened his mouth without even taking ten seconds of Yujiang's time. "Let's do it." His decision was too quick and without any hesitation.

"Didn't expect you to be swift," commented the Deity of the mortal plane's all seas and oceans. Everyone saw this sense of relief on his face, but Mark's attention was only on his girl and nothing else.

After a while, an unconscious Song Yue was seen lying on the table while the Saint realm Deity placed his hands on her forehead. His eyes are closed and his divine energy slowly starts to flow through her head.

Based on Deity Yujiang's words, it was supposed to be a smooth operation, but Mark didn't expect to see the look of struggle on their deity's face as they saw a palm-sized orb with a purple glow came out half but the remaining got stuck in her forehead.

"What's going on?" Lin Xue asked in a hushed tone. Anxious was clearly written on her face.

"Lu Zhen, a little help here. This one is a bit stubborn," The Deity of Seas and Oceans didn't feel bad at all to ask for his assistance.

However, this put a lot of pressure on Mark. He stood there in a bit of a frozen state, not knowing what to do. After all, he never trained to become a cultivator. His proficiency in energy control is the same as a rookie cultivator. He merely used the skills from the list, so far.

In the event of a problem, he naturally turned to the system for help.

And the system seemed ready to help. It quickly responded.

*Ding! The system could possess the host's body to do the required task.

"Possession?" Mark remembered the incident in the past where the system did it without his consent in order to protect the elven world.

"Lu Zhen? Lu Zhen?" As Deity Yujiang hurried him, Mark spoke in his head, "Okay, let's do it.

*Ding! Possessing the host's body in 3, 2, 1…

"Hmm?" Yujiang halted his extraction process for a second and gazed at Mark. The fellow's demeanor suddenly changed.

Mark's eyes turned pitch black with no visible pupils. "Move aside. Let me take care of this."

Everyone's attention was also piqued by Mark's voice, which changed to that of a high-pitched female, although a bit similar to that of a puppet.

Yujiang was stunned for a moment and he immediately fell to his knees and cupped his fists, "May I know your identity, Your Grace?"

"Huh?" The others turned their heads to look at this Saint Realm deity and then at Mark.

The system-controlled Mark answered, "The time has already come. So, you will find it soon enough."

As the Deity stepped back, Mark then stepped forward to grab the orb protruding out of her forehead.

However, unlike with Yujiang, this time, the orb gave a reaction to Mark's touch, although not in a pleasant way.

The Orb of Chaos sent out a wave of purple energy, pushing away Mark's hand. His palm had a bruise from the attack, startling the others.

"What's happening?" Steve wondered out loud.

"Shhh," James quickly closed his mouth and whispered, "Read the room, will ya? Watch…"

Mark then glanced to the left and right before taking out a similar-looking orb but glowing in bright green.

"The Orb of Time?" Deity Yujiang let out a gasp. "How is this possible? It was supposed to be at…"

System-possessed Mark interrupted him with a fact, "My host is only 25 years old. How else do you think he has such big sons? They came from the future through this."

Lin Xue looked at Steve and James, and so was Yujiang. The Deity nodded in understanding, "Now, it does make sense."

Mark then proceeded to slowly move the orb closer to Song Yue's forehead, almost touching the other orb.

As the Orb of Chaos started glowing brighter than before, Mark retracted the orb away and the purple orb came out on its own. Mark caught it in another hand, which was then enveloped by the purple energy.

"Quickly, hand it over. I will trap it in divine energy," The sea deity hurriedly spoke in worry.

However, Mark answered, "Nope. I will sort out this matter. You have to leave," replied Mark, taking him by surprise once again. Everyone stayed silent and watched.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Deity Yujiang furrowed his brows, "You are going to keep it?"

Mark tossed up the orb and caught it once again despite his hand getting burned by the purple energy, "Yup. I need this to resurrect the Chaos Lord, after all. Or else, how could I dethrone the Jade Emperor?"

"What?"
