A fire sparked the activation of a powerful ability within a ring that had been worn for five years, connecting him to countless worlds. "Beep, flame attribute reaches 100%, Flame Mountain world initiated." "Beep, two-dimensional attribute reaches 100%, the 2D world activated." Looking at the myriad of goodies across the screen, Ye ZiChuan's eyes reddened with greed. "Ring Spirit, I want to use the Spatial Stone!" "Beep, successfully applied, congratulations host, the spatial capacity of the ring has expanded to 125 cubic meters." "Ring Spirit, I want to exchange for the Sharingan!" "Beep, exchange successful, congratulations host on merging with the Sharingan." As Ye ZiChuan opened his eyes, the world had drastically altered, before him stood a naked beauty: "Amitabha, such a sin, such a sin."
In the pale hospital room, a strange scent of medicine filled the air. Ye Zichuan lay on the hospital bed, his eyes dull and unfocused. His entire body was wrapped in bandages like a mummy, his gaze fixed on the ceiling.
"Alas, I feel sorry for this child. He's the only one left in a family of three. I wonder how he's going to cope in the future?"
"Indeed, natural and man-made disasters are unavoidable. He has suffered severe burns all over his body. I'm afraid he can't go out for the rest of his life."
"Just a few days ago, his friends and relatives came to visit him, but now, there's no sight of them."
"Yeah, and he got dumped by his girlfriend. These continuous blows, I wonder if he can handle it?"
Standing outside the door, the nurses looked at Ye Zichuan in the hospital room, shaking their heads and sighing. His condition was truly pitiful.
However, Ye Zichuan's expressionless eyes were not due to his current situation, but because an interface had popped up in his mind.
"Beep, 'Heavenly Commandments' is activated, data preparation in progress..."
"Fire attribute reaches 100%, World of Flame Mountain activated."
"Beep, as a newbie, you will receive a newbie gift pack and a lottery draw opportunity. Would the host like to open the gift pack and initiate the lottery draw now?"
Staring at the interface in his mind, Ye Zichuan took a moment to snap out of his daze.
The interface was large, a section in the corner lit up as if it was ablaze with fire, a gift pack image popped up on the other side, along with a large roulette wheel, presumably the lottery draw interface.
"What... what is this? Could this be a system?" Ye Zichuan was completely dumbfounded. This was just like the system mentioned in novels, right?
"No, this is the 'Heavenly Commandments!'" A cold electronic voice echoed in Ye Zichuan's mind.
Subsequently, Ye Zichuan saw a ring appear on the interface. It was a simple black ring adorned with golden patterns, looking noble and mysterious.
"Isn't this my ring?" Ye Zichuan widened his eyes. How could he not recognize this ring that had been on his finger, though now it had a few additional golden lines.
Long after, Ye Zichuan suppressed the doubts in his heart and he then asked, "What is this All-heaven Multiring?"
"It connects to all heavenly worlds. The host can freely go to any world and exchange for items from any world, such as the Flamesmount World. The Flame Spirit Marrow therein has an excellent healing effect on the host's burns," a monotonous electronic voice explained for Ye Zichuan.
Upon hearing that, Ye Zichuan fell into a fervor and asked with widened eyes, "Can the Flame Spirit Marrow really cure my burns?"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this affirmative answer, Ye Zichuan burst into a mad laughter. When he found out that more than sixty percent of his body was burned, he had already given up hope, especially due to the indifference of friends and family, as well as the betrayal from his girlfriend, he could not see any hope.
But now, the ring he had worn for five years had suddenly turned so magical, giving him a glimmer of hope for recovery.
"Hehe, Lin Yu Yao, you piece of trash who looks down upon people, wait until I'm healed, I'll blind you, and that goes for my aunts too. Wait until I make a name for myself, you all will regret it!"
Several nurses outside the room looked at Ye Zichuan, who suddenly burst out laughing, they all shook their heads and sighed. It seemed this young man was deeply wounded and was losing his mind.
After a long time, Ye Zichuan came back from his state of exhilaration and remembered he still has a newbie gift pack.
"Erm, can I open the newbie gift pack now?"
"You can, are you sure you want to open it?" The cold electronic voice came again.
"Yes." Ye Zichuan nodded and then saw the newbie gift pack open, with items popping out.
"Congratulations host, you have received a space stone, a bottle of Flame Spirit Marrow, and a 'Wine God's Notes'," the electronic voice announced, describing the items in the gift pack for Ye Zichuan.
"What's a space stone?" Ye Zichuan widened his eyes; he had never heard of such a thing before.
"The Space Stone can broaden the ring's space, since the host is a newbie, a reward of one stone is given. In the future, it can only be obtained through other methods." The electronic voice explained to Ye Zichuan.
"Do you mean to say that the Space Stone can increase the ring's space, just like a storage-ring?" Ye Zichuan widened his eyes- isn't a storage ring something only found in fantasy novels?
"Yes!" The electronic voice gave a firm answer, "Does the host wish to use it now?"
"Use it!" Ye Zichuan nodded without any hesitation.
Then he felt a sudden change in the space around him, turning into a tangible object, only 5 meters in length, width, and height. Though the volume was not big, Ye Zichuan felt exhilarated- this is the space of a storage ring, how amazing!
"The host still has one more chance to draw, does the host wish to draw?" The electronic voice rang again, startling Ye Zichuan. That's right, I still have one more chance to draw.
"Yes, draw!" Ye Zichuan nodded his head, and watched the massive wheel on the interface start to spin, the pointer buzzing and flying around, finally stopping after a while.
What irked Ye Zichuan was that all the prizes on the wheel were hidden, he had no idea what he had won, and was left completely in the dark.
"Congratulations to the host for winning one Space Stone." The electronic voice seemed somewhat speechless. It didn't expect Ye Zichuan's luck to be so good as to win yet another Space Stone.
"Is the Space Stone very precious?" Ye Zichuan also sensed the tone in the electronic voice and asked out of curiosity.
"Yanling Marrow is Level 1, the Space Stone is Level 8!" With that one sentence from the electronic voice, Ye Zichuan's eyes widened. The Yanling Marrow could heal his burns, yet it was only Level 1, whereas the Space Stone was Level 8, the gap was obvious.
"So precious?"
"Anything involving space is rare throughout the heavens, like Spatial Mithril, Spatial Shards, the lowest are all Level 8." The electronic voice explained.
"How can I obtain the Space Stone in the future?" Ye Zichuan asked. If the ring's space could expand indefinitely, then it would truly be a world of its own.
"The simplest method would be to exchange for it using world values, or you could exchange items with other higher dimensional planes to acquire the Space Stone." The electronic voice said.
"What is the World Value?" Ye Zichuan stared wide-eyed, with a look of absolute bewilderment on his face.
The display fluctuated for a moment, revealing a series of data.
Host: Ye Zichuan
Age: 20
Height: 172cm
Weight: 56kg
World Value: 0
Exchange Cards: 0
Space Size: 125m³
Backpack: One piece of Space Stone, one bottle of Flame Spirit Essence, one volume of the "God of Wine's Notebook"
"World Value refers to the universal value exchanged among the innumerable worlds of the myriad heavens and can be likened to currency; Exchange Cards, with these, exchanges with other worlds can be accomplished. A level one exchange card can only exchange level one items, while a level eight exchange card is capable of exchanging any item from level one to eight." The electronic voice explained Ye Zichuan's doubt.
Seeing that he still had a piece of Space Stone, Ye Zichuan immediately used it. The volume instantly doubled, now he had 250 cubic meters.
He then glanced at the Flame Spirit Essence in his backpack, his eyes blazing with excitement. This was a spiritual medicine that could potentially cure him completely.
"I want to use the Flame Spirit Essence!"
