C1 One More Life!
"Welcome to the world of Eon Realms!"
"Imagine a realm where anything is possible. Do you dream of wealth that rivals nations? Do you yearn for the power of the Eon Realms to enhance your reality? Here, all that and more can become your reality!"
Lin Bei, slowly awakening, was stunned by the familiar voice.
"Wasn't I dead?"
He recalled Earth's secret, a mystery with the power to alter the cosmos. The Eon Realms existed to shield this secret from exposure.
In the Eon Realms, Lin Bei had the fortune of befriending Wan Dao, the Human Clan's Sovereign, and witnessed countless calamities.
A human traitor, in league with the Primeval Devil Clan, shattered the World Tree, triggering an apocalypse.
The battle claimed the lives of the Celestial and Dragon Clans' finest, including Wan Dao himself.
"Find that traitor!" Wan Dao's final words echoed as the Eon Realms crumbled.
By a stroke of luck, Lin Bei discovered the traitor's identity on death's doorstep: Cai Xukun.
"Please draw your unique talent!" The system's prompt jolted him back to the present.
His vision cleared, revealing a crystal hall enveloped by clouds.
Guarded by four pillars adorned with the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, this was the Creation Temple where Eon Realms players began their journey.
The date displayed was December 12, 2222 – the launch of the enigmatic online game Eon Realms.
"Have I truly been reborn?"
Lin Bei's breath caught as surprise and confusion crossed his face.
If time was accurate, it signified a fresh start.
He knew the Ten Great Divine Steles would soon emerge in Eon Realms, syncing reality with this virtual domain.
Items and powers from Eon Realms could be brought into the real world, revolutionizing the global landscape.
This was his chance to thwart Cai Xukun's ascent.
"My former world is gone! Reborn, I must prevent Cai Xukun's rise!"
He inhaled deeply, steadying himself.
He declined to draw a talent.
"You have forfeited the chance to draw a talent!"
"Select your Profession!"
With the system's chime, nine silhouettes descended upon the hall, statues armed for battle, signaling the time to choose a Profession.
Warrior, Knight, Assassin, Ranger, Shield Hero, Mage, Prophet, Summon, Swordman – the Professions of Eon Realms beckoned.
Yet Lin Bei boldly refused to choose.
In Eon Realms, the possibilities were endless.
In his past life, he rushed his Profession choice and missed the Creation Temple's unique hidden reward.
A delivery guy, proclaiming "I decide my destiny!" had claimed it.
The secret? Complete the naming stage by forgoing drawing talent and choosing profession, then he could receive Divine Baptism in the clouds outside the temple.
Divine Light was that unique reward.
Someone later tried to re-enter the Creation Temple after deleting their character and waiting three months, only to find an impenetrable barrier. No one but the first could receive the Divine Baptism.
They were left to delete and wait again.
As Lin Bei pondered, the system prompted once more.
"Enter your nickname!"
After a pause, he whispered, "One More Life."
"Nickname 'One More Life' created successfully!"
With his name set, Lin Bei's initial panel materialized.
He didn't rush to check it, instead peering into the vast void before stepping forward.
A system warning blared.
"Warning! The Divine Light area is forbidden to humans. Trespassers will be struck by heavenly lightning!"
Unfazed, Lin Bei approached the brink.
The Divine Light vanished, and thunder roared.
Undeterred, he stepped out, ripples echoing underfoot as he stood amidst the storm.
The tumultuous clouds cleared, leaving only the Divine Light.
"It's real!"
A smile of joy broke across Lin Bei's face, basking in the warm embrace of the Divine Light.
The system announced, "Congratulations on your Divine Baptism! You've defied fate and earned the unique hidden reward. Welcome to Eon Realms!"
Before he could grasp the moment, darkness enveloped him.
How did he suddenly get thrust into the game?
He was clueless about his talent and profession, and had no idea what secret bonuses he'd racked up.
As Lin Bei grappled with his confusion, a voice rang out beside him, and a burst of white light dazzled his eyes.
"Based on your real-world coordinates, you've been placed in Dragon Country's Beginner Village, Misty Village!"
"Congratulations! You've been granted the talent 'All Things Psychic'!"
"Congratulations, you've acquired three skills: 'Proficiency in Weapons,' 'Full of Vigour,' and 'Elemental Trap'!"
"Congratulations, you've received a universal weapon—a short knife!"
Upon his arrival in the Eon Realms, Lin Bei was awarded a talent and three skills, which eased his initial panic.
He had feared he'd been duped, but it turned out his worries were unfounded!
Now, Misty Village was teeming with players.
"Wow, this is insanely lifelike! No wonder even the top security experts can't trace the origins of the Eon Realms!"
"I thought entering the Eon Realms with some shoddy stone was a con. Turns out, it's legit!"
"Check out that village girl—she's more beautiful than my neighbor's daughter-in-law!"
The buzz of excitement from the players around him was palpable.
Yet, Lin Bei was awestruck. He began to stride out of the village while perusing his attribute panel.
