When Jin Huajian woke up, he discovered that he had somehow become a sword, hanging day after day on some cold cliff, weathering wind and rain.
Jin Huajian was completely at a loss. Who transmigrates and turns into a sword?!
Then one day, the white-haired, white-lashed Immortal Venerable Yuqiong gathered him into his sleeve with magic. Jin Huajian heard his cool voice say, "It has even developed a sword spirit."
At the same time, a cold electronic voice seemed to awaken, reverberating through Jin Huajian's mind.
[Host meets the activation requirements for the 'Golden Finger System', System starting, ]
Jin Huajian suddenly understood. He had transmigrated as the golden finger of this so-called Immortal Venerable Yuqiong! So the Immortal Venerable was the male lead?
If he stuck with the male lead, he wouldn't have to worry about food, clothes, or wealth.
But before Jin Huajian could celebrate, he opened his eyes again and found that he had turned into a tall mirror standing behind a thin gauze curtain.
A human emperor, a white jade crown hanging over his forehead, asked the celestial master beside him in a solemn, cold voice, "You said this mirror understands human speech, knows fate, and can divine past and future reincarnations. So why has it refused to say a word?"
[Beep, Task target detected. Host, please begin the mission to support the protagonist.]
Jin Huajian almost swore. "How can I do the mission half-heartedly? In life, I am the Immortal Venerable Yuqiong's personal sword. In death, I am the Immortal Venerable Yuqiong's..."
[If the Host does not speak within three seconds, the task target will throw you and the celestial master into the smelting furnace.]
The tall mirror said, "I know fate. What would you like to ask?"
Just as Jin Huajian thought he would finally get to enjoy a peaceful, wealthy life as the protagonist's golden finger, he transmigrated again.
In an underground palace of splendor, its walls painted scarlet and built up in black, a bewitching, arrogant man lounged on the throne, his eyes as red as a blood moon.
Jin Huajian thought he had become another inanimate object, but instead he rolled right to the Demon Venerable's feet.
Jin Huajian: "?!"
Then he felt himself being lifted by the scruff of his neck. Jin Huajian looked up in alarm and met the Demon Venerable's gaze.
The man frowned and demanded, "Whose transformed form is this white fox?"
[Beep, Task target detected, ]
Before the System could finish this time, Jin Huajian completely lost his temper.
"What kind of lousy System is this?! Can't you do your missions without getting distracted?!"
Later, Jin Huajian realized that transmigrating once or twice wasn't really a problem. The problem was that this lousy System kept making him transmigrate back and forth.
Word had it that a major event had taken place across the Three Realms. The leaders of the immortal, demon, and human realms were all searching for someone.
Fortunately, they weren't all searching for the same person.
One was said to be a sword spirit, another an immortal in a mirror, and the last a nine-tailed fox.
Immortal Venerable Yuqiong mobilized the power of the entire Cangqiong Immortal Pavilion to search for someone. The emperor sent the armies of his entire dynasty, while the Abyssal Demon Venerable personally traveled between the human world and its bustling streets, determined to bring someone back...
Jin Huajian, wearing a bamboo hat at the next table, pulled down its brim and quietly slipped away.
When he reached a deserted place, Jin Huajian was so angry he almost threw his hat. What kind of lousy System was this?! Why was he still here after the mission was over?!
