[Interstellar] [System] [Interworld War] [Political Intrigue] [Invasion from Another World]
Ling Chen, commander of the Federation's Seventh Fleet, was once nearly killed in an assassination attempt by Mo Chen, an S-rank psychic. After activating a system, he discovered the cultivation world of Tianyuan Continent and reported the intelligence to the Federation, taking up the post of commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force. Mo Chen is a prodigy blessed by the fortune of the galaxy. He broke through to S-rank at twenty-four and is destined to rule the stars.
Ling Chen knows that no one in the galaxy can kill Mo Chen in a direct confrontation, so he sets a trap: he deliberately spreads false information, claiming that Tianyuan Continent holds an ancient divine artifact capable of breaking through to SS-rank, and that fortune can be inherited. Mo Chen falls for it and crosses the planar barrier alone.
But Ling Chen has chosen the battlefield: the Spiritless Abyss, a rift in the far north of Tianyuan Continent, where spiritual energy is so scarce that it blocks all fortune from beyond. The moment Mo Chen steps inside, his S-rank psychic powers crumble, and he loses the galaxy's favor.
At Ling Chen's side stands the true Child of Fortune of this world: Ye Chen. A Soul Formation cultivator favored by fate, he commands even greater fortune on this continent than Mo Chen once did in the galaxy.
In the Spiritless Abyss, Mo Chen drops to one knee as his psychic powers disintegrate.
“You were the galaxy's invincible chosen one,” Ling Chen says calmly. “But this isn't the galaxy.”
Ye Chen stands beside him, hand on his sword.
“Ye Chen's fortune on this continent is every bit as strong as yours was back then, if not stronger.”
“Of the two Children of Fortune from two worlds, one is my ally, and the other is about to be buried here.”
Ling Chen crouches to meet Mo Chen's eyes. “Tell me, who do you think will win?”
