Xuanhuan: Infinite Returns, Proving the Dao Begins with Taking Disciples

Xiao Ziyue transmigrates to the Tianyuan Continent and awakens a god-level reward-return System. He planned to keep his head down until the end of time, but his conscience (and the rewards) are just too tempting! [Ding! You gave your disciple an ordinary iron sword. A ten-thousandfold return is triggered. You receive: Primordial Immortal-Slaying Sword!] [Ding! You gave your apprentice a Qi-Gathering Pill. A thousandfold return is triggered. You receive: Nine-Revolution Golden Pill!] From then on, the Tianyuan Realm gains a mentor with a very unusual style. Others choose disciples for their talent. He chooses them based on “fate” (mainly to see what the System's estimate says he'll get back). Others grow stronger through cultivation. He grows stronger by… “milking” the System, while incidentally turning his disciples into peerless geniuses. When dark upheaval descends, the sages lie low and all races tremble, Xiao Ziyue yawns and waves to the disciples behind him, whose auras could shake the past and present: “Good, go get your master some ‘experience packs.’” His disciples (each having become a supreme ruler in their own domain): “We obey, Master!” The villains: “??? Wait, this isn't right! Weren't we supposed to fight one-on-one?!” This is the story of a scheming mentor and his band of cheat-code disciples, keeping a low profile while accidentally sweeping across the heavens and the Myriad Worlds!
