Now This Feels Great, the Benefits of Raising Fortuity Points
Now This Feels Great, the Benefits of Raising Fortuity Points
Ming Lao’s original name was Lin Ming. After ascending to the Beyond, he became an external retainer of the Gu Family, and from then on he was known as Ming Lao.
Thirty thousand years ago, he was at the Partial-Enlightened Realm. Now, he had already cultivated to the Enlightened King Realm.
Within the Gu Family of the Beyond, he could be considered a formidable expert in his own right.
Because of the Overworld’s circumstances, Ming Lao naturally found it difficult to unleash his true power. Moreover, if he went all out, he would face rejection from this world’s World’s Will.
Although he was an Enlightened King Realm expert, he still hadn’t reached the level where he could ignore this world’s World’s Will.
“Single-handedly founded the Lin Family.”
The information on Ming Lao surfaced in Gu Changge’s mind, and he nodded.
At the same time, he communicated with the System in his heart, “How many Fortuity points does Ye Chen have left now?”
He had already heard the System’s notification just now. As the world’s trajectory went awry, the world’s corrective force appeared, and a new Fortuitous One had emerged.
It seemed Ye Chen was about to be abandoned by his Heavenly Path daddy too.
Or perhaps, Fortuitous Ones were inherently beings that followed certain specific templates.
Having several of them exist at the same time wasn’t strange either.
Gu Changge was already guessing which template it would be this time, besides the trashy broken-engagement trope.
The System answered, <Master, Ye Chen currently has two hundred and thirty Fortuity points remaining.>
“The reason Negative Fortuity exists is actually because the gap between my Fortuity points and the so-called Fortuitous One’s is too large, right?” Gu Changge asked.
The System’s mechanical, ice-cold voice rang out, “Yes. As Master’s Fortuity points increase, the Negative Fortuity will gradually disappear.”
Gu Changge nodded, lost in thought.
Although Ye Chen’s strength was very weak, dealing with him had honestly cost Gu Changge quite a few tricks.
After all, Gu Changge’s power could clearly crush him with ease.
Yet the Heavenly Path gave Ye Chen an alternative form of protection, making it difficult for Gu Changge to eliminate him through direct means.
One had to know that at the very beginning, Gu Changge only had thirty Fortuity points.
While Ye Chen had over five hundred points—a gap of nearly twenty times.
In terms of strength, for the original body to kill Ye Chen would have been a matter of a single finger.
As a Direct Disciple of a Cult of Immortality from the Beyond, why did he only have thirty Fortuity points?
Gu Changge had pondered this for a long time. Aside from his own villain positioning, it was probably due to the original body’s temperament.
Arrogant, indifferent, with nothing but cultivation in his heart—to put it bluntly, quite stupid. He perfectly fit the mold of a cannon-fodder villain who existed to hand out experience.
He couldn’t be bothered to strike at an ant-like Ye Chen.
So with a personality like that, there were far too many contingencies.
If things had developed according to the original world trajectory...
Fortuity was inherently illusory and intangible. Throw in a few more accidents, and Ye Chen offending the original body yet surviving again and again wasn’t strange—it all made sense.
After he transmigrated over...
He instantly saw through all these tropes, so naturally he wouldn’t let Ye Chen slap his face and trample all over him.
Gu Changge thus became a so-called Anomaly, and the Heavenly Path could no longer use “accidents” to shelter the Fortuitous One.
At that point, Negative Fortuity appeared.
It was the same principle as the grand trends of the Primeval World he knew from his past life—Humans were the destined protagonists, and defying the grand trend meant suffering heavenly punishment.
Even Sacred Realm beings dared not claim they could alter the grand trend of heaven and earth.
Of course, the world before him naturally couldn’t compare to the Primeval World, but the principle was the same.
With a destined Fortuitous One, the Heavenly Path would certainly show favoritism.
The title of Fortuitous One wasn’t just for show.
Gu Changge had now figured all of this out.
Although the process of snatching away the Fortuitous One’s possessions one by one was very entertaining, it also gave him a feeling of being tied hand and foot, which annoyed Gu Changge somewhat.
Fortunately, right now, Gu Changge found that when he harbored killing intent toward Ye Chen, he no longer felt that heart-palpitation sensation.
He guessed it was because his Fortuity points had increased considerably.
Now this felt great.
Just as the System said, once his Fortuity points rose, even if the Heavenly Path wanted to play favorites, it had to follow certain trajectories.
If it wanted to shelter the Fortuitous One, it could only rely on so-called accidents. It couldn’t just casually drop a Chaos Heavenly Lightning bolt to strike him dead.
After that, Gu Changge glanced over his current status interface.
Master: Gu Changge.
Identity: True Disciple of Skyward Schloss.
Physique & Bloodline: Demonic Heart, Daoist Bone.
Cultivation: Middle Stage of Honoured Lord Realm.
Spells & Techniques: Skyward Ascension (Level Seven), Demonization (Talent), Nature God’s Chant (Talent), Immortal-Devouring Demonic Art...
Fatums: One hundred.
Fortuity Points: One hundred twenty points (Onyx).
System Shop: Opened.
Storage: Domain-Shattering Talisman ×1, One-third Fragment of the World Seed ×1.
During this period, by allocating points through Fatums, he had advanced another minor realm.
Skyward Ascension was still at the seventh level, but Gu Changge had raised his cultivation to the Middle Stage of the Honoured Lord Realm.
Compared to the Young Prodigies of the Beyond, his speed could only be described as cheating.
He was already a peerless genius, and on top of that he could cultivate by allocating points—his breakthrough speed was naturally fast.
But hey, Fatums earned through one’s own means—how could that be called cheating?
Besides that, Gu Changge had also been pondering what would happen now that he possessed Onyx Fortuity.
But in the end, he discovered that nothing happened at all.
No treasures fell from the sky, nor did any disasters befall him.
It was merely the mark of his status as an Anomaly.
It didn’t exist among the seven Fortuity tiers of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.
To put it in layman’s terms, Onyx Fortuity represented the unfathomable and the unknown.

PS: This chapter might have a bit too much explanation. Considering that Negative Fortuity was suppressing the protagonist a little too much, I explained it for the sake of logic. This won’t happen again in later chapters. After all, my style is all about being invincible and maximizing the satisfaction. Also, five chapters again today, and while I’m at it, I’m begging for everything.
