Triune: The broken path
Chapter 51 - 50: Devour.... Infinity.,..????

Chapter 51: Chapter 50: Devour.... Infinity.,..????

A message appeared before Liu Tian:

**[Big Daddy System has been activated. This system allows the host to grow stronger while lying down. No hard work, no treasure hunting, no cultivation. Treasures and power will be directly handed to the host as he reaches specific milestones.

Only one rule: Never work hard, or your cultivation will regress.]**

Liu Tian woke up groggily to this message.

"Huh... Where am I? Where are the girls? Huh... WHAT?!"

He shot up instantly, his eyes scanning the system notification. Did this mean...

"AHAHAHA! The heavens have blessed me! What the f*ck... What an amazing system! This is what all reincarnators dream of—cough, I mean, what I want! Good... good!" Liu Tian grinned widely, excitement surging through him.

Waking up from a simple nap only to receive this kind of message? This meant he could grow stronger just by lying down. Wasn’t this like a divine gift falling straight into his lap?

Still grinning, Liu Tian was about to explore the system when a new, ominous message appeared:

[ERROR! ERROR! A higher power is descending... System resisting at 100% capacity... Resistance failed. Host strength insufficient... Initiating emergency transport.]

"Huh? What?"

Before he could react, a blinding beam of light engulfed him, and in an instant, Liu Tian vanished from his world.

****

At the Liu Clan’s Main Hall

The clan patriarch and several elders sat in discussion when a disciple suddenly rushed in, dropping to his knees.

"Patriarch! Patriarch! Something has happened!"

The room fell silent as the patriarch and the elders turned to look at him.

"Speak," the patriarch commanded calmly, his powerful aura pressing down on the disciple, making him swallow nervously. He had entered the clan’s main hall without permission—if his news wasn’t important, he would suffer severe punishment.

With a trembling voice, the disciple spoke.

"It’s... Liu Tian."

A collective sigh echoed through the hall. What had that troublemaker done this time?

"What about him?" the patriarch asked, his expression bored.

"He... he disappeared," the disciple stammered.

The patriarch’s brows furrowed. "Speak clearly!"

"A white light... it struck him, and then he vanished!"

His words sent a wave of shock through the hall.

"Well, his father is dead, so forget about it," one of the elders said after a moment of silence.

"Yes, you’re right, Fifth Elder," another elder agreed.

The elders murmured among themselves, while the disciple sighed inwardly.

So that was it? Liu Tian had only been treated well because of his father. Though the disciple had no idea what Liu Tian’s father had done, it must have been significant enough for the clan to care for his so-called "waste" of a son.

"Enough," the patriarch finally said. "It’s settled. Inform the others not to concern themselves with this matter."

The disciple nodded.

"You may leave," the patriarch added, dismissing him.

As he stepped out of the hall, the disciple thought to himself, No one will care anyway.

*********

[Host has awakened... Welcome to the Realm of War. The system attempted to resist, but the host was too weak. System power is currently limited.]

Liu Tian blinked as his vision adjusted.

What he saw left him speechless.

Paradise? No, even that word didn’t do it justice. This place was breathtaking. Lush forests stretched before him, radiating an almost divine tranquility. The air was impossibly fresh, the sky magnificent, and the land itself seemed to hum with power.

An immortal paradise.

"Wait... what did you just say?"

Liu Tian’s mind finally caught up to the system’s words.

"System, if you were at full power, could you have won?" he asked.

Silence.

"System? ...System?"

No response.

With a sigh, Liu Tian waited. Then, the system finally spoke again.

**[The Realm of War is an amalgamation of worlds, a place where the opportunity to become the God of Existence is presented. Origin Energy is abundant here, with no limitations. The host will follow the path of godhood instead of traditional cultivation.

You have awakened the Infinity Concept. Open status for more details.]**

Liu Tian’s mind reeled.

"Status," he commanded.

A translucent blue screen appeared before him, displaying his information.

Name: Liu Tian

Rank: Awakener (Low)

Concept: Infinity

Abilities:

Growth – Always growing stronger. Current growth rate: +10 energy per second. Will reach the next stage in one day.

Regeneration – Infinite regeneration.

Physical Stats – Speed, attack, and defense are constantly increasing.

Body of Infinity – A body filled with endless potential.

Domain – Infinite Domain (Current size: 1 km). Within this space, the host is untouchable, and all attacks will always land. However, its power decreases against stronger opponents.

Counter – Against enemies of the same realm or lower, all their attacks are reflected back with a random multiplier, while the host takes no damage due to the Body of Infinity.

"Wow..." was all Liu Tian could say, his mouth hanging open in shock.

Before he could process it all, a female voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Oh? An Awakener... You just arrived, and you’re already heading into that forest? Are you that eager to die?"

A soft, melodic laugh followed, and Liu Tian turned to see the speaker.

His breath hitched.

What... was beauty?

This.

She was divine. A goddess. Maybe even beyond that. Her sheer presence seemed to distort reality. Her radiant skin, flawless features, and enchanting smile were enough to topple nations. For a brief moment, Liu Tian was completely entranced.

"Sigh... Hello?"

She snapped her fingers, snapping him out of his daze.

"That smile... and her skin... so soft-looking... and that body... La hot..." Liu Tian felt like a mere ant before her.

"Hey... yeah..." he managed to reply with an awkward chuckle.

The woman shook her head in amusement.

"Welcome to the Immortal Realm. As a new immortal, you must undergo purification in the Transformation Pool. If you’re lucky, you might awaken a terrifying bloodline."

She turned gracefully, walking ahead.

Liu Tian hesitated for only a second before quickly following her.

"Hmm... fascinating," he murmured, glancing at her back before refocusing on his system.

This whole system situation... It was getting more interesting by the second.

**********************

While walking, Liu Tian began exploring his system.

"What is the Realm of War?" Liu Tian asked.

[This realm has existed since the beginning of existence. It contains all concepts and all origin power. For example, your concept—Infinity. It is an original concept, meaning it will lead you to the origin of Infinity itself. You will become Infinity, and it will become you.]

[You don’t need to evolve it since it is already in its highest form. All you need to do is understand it, and you will grow rapidly. Once a month, you will receive a lucky gacha wheel, where you can obtain Infinity Concept shards, advancements in stages, or even realm breakthroughs.]

[The system’s restriction has been lifted. The host can now work hard if he chooses, but your power will continue to grow along with your lifespan.]

"Damn, this is a bug! I’m invincible!" Liu Tian thought with a light laugh.

*********

"This is it... I guess I need to go inside this hole." An excited male voice echoed as Muyin grinned.

Below him was a bottomless pit, located beside a small mountain with rivers flowing around it. This hole was the gateway to civilization—the key to Muyin’s strength.

Without hesitation, he leaped in, descending rapidly into the darkness.

For a moment, he felt weightless before a blinding light engulfed him. When his vision cleared, he found himself standing before an altar made of golden bricks.

It was dozens of meters tall and hundreds of meters wide. Surrounding it was pure darkness, and at its center, two drops of blood floated—one white, the other black.

He didn’t know why they were there, but he didn’t bother to question it.

"Last time, I chose white, and it failed... I was killed by Riya." Muyin muttered as he stepped forward. With each step, his voice grew colder, his aura darker.

"This time..." he whispered upon reaching the center.

"I will become a demon."

Without hesitation, Muyin grabbed the black drop of blood. The moment he touched it, it turned crimson red and surged into his body.

Each drop was half a meter tall.

"AAAAAH!" Muyin screamed as a five-meter-tall black cocoon enveloped him. Within moments, it expanded to twenty meters, fully consuming his body.

His transformation had begun—his body shifting into that of a six-armed giant, a true member of the Ashura Clan.

The cocoon pulsed like a beating heart, deep purple lines glowing in rhythm.

Deep within Muyin’s transforming body, an ancient voice echoed:

"Yes... yes... Finally... the Ashura Clan will be reborn. Go, my child, and become the new ancestor of the Ashura Clan. Create the Blood Sea... and thrive."

Then, the voice faded into darkness.

**************

Sigh... sigh... What the fuck...?

A pair of beastly eyes snapped open as Joren looked around. He was perched atop a hill, but something was different.

The environment had changed.

Joren quickly stood up, his eyes scanning his surroundings cautiously.

[Ding! Welcome to the Realm of War. The Supreme Beast System has been disintegrated and converted into the host’s new concept: Devour. The host has become a Fierce Beast. Information about the Realm of War will now be transferred to the host.]

A mechanical voice echoed in his mind as a massive surge of information flooded his brain. Joren let out a low growl as he absorbed it all.

Minutes passed as the headache subsided, and Joren’s eyes gleamed with understanding.

The Realm of War was more than a challenge—it was a blessing. More than that, it was his path to the top.

Joren took a few minutes to digest everything before finally letting out a deep sigh.

His massive wolf-like body stood at ten meters tall and fifteen meters long. He wasn’t just any beast.

He was a Fierce Beast.

An invincible one in his current realm.

"Status." Joren called out. Immediately, a translucent blue screen appeared before him.

Name: Joren

Rank: Demigod

Concept: Devour

Bloodline: Fierce Beast (Upon reaching the Minor God realm, the bloodline will evolve into Starry Beast at the Low God realm.)

Abilities:

Devour – Can devour all matter.

Absorption – Can absorb any attack; damage taken is devoured and added to the host’s power.

Blight – Can create a prototype realm where all things weaker than the host are devoured.

Even though Joren had only three abilities, each of them was terrifyingly overpowered.

"Hahaha! I will become the strongest beast ever!" Joren laughed wildly—until something caught his eye.

"Huh? A human child... with a golden egg?" Joren muttered in confusion as he gaze at a cave.
