When system cheat becomes rampant!
Chapter 735 - 540: The So-Called Heavenly Connection (4000 words)

"Heavenly Connection realm requires one to comprehend on their own. Grasp the essence of the heavens and the earth, this world, there are various rules between heaven and earth. You know what rules are, as someone who can control the system of everyone, you surely understand better than anyone else," said Xiang Qingde.

"I understand," Xiang Beifei replied with a slight nod.

This world is filled with unique rules, and many martial artists manage to wield their rule abilities through systems.

The most typical one is Gao Zhuo, who possesses the Unparalleled Chess Player System. To defeat him, one must play according to the rules of his chess game; only through playing chess can one overcome him.

That is a most representative system of the rule type.

But not limited to this system alone, Xiang Beifei had encountered nearly every type in Jiuzhou, each with its unique set of rules.

Xiang Qingde slowly said, "You clearly understand what rules are, but upon reaching a certain realm, we usually do not call it 'rules' but refer to it as: Heavenly Dao Laws."

"Heavenly Dao Laws?"

Xiang Beifei found this term quite novel.

"Yes, there are various laws in this world. The Heavenly Connection realm involves learning to commune with the heavens, to understand the laws between heaven and earth. If you can master one such law, you can step into the Heavenly Connection realm," Xiang Qingde explained, pausing before continuing, "Many of the strongest and most gifted Awakeners find their paths clearly laid out once they reach the later stages of orifice transforming. Their systems help them identify the most suitable paths to commune with the Heavenly Dao Laws. This process isn't difficult for them, but for you, it could be very challenging, even tremendously so."

Xiang Beifei was momentarily stunned.

"So I can't commune with the heavens and become a strong practitioner of the Heavenly Connection realm?"

"That's for you to figure out. What are you most skilled at, what do you desire most? You're someone without a system; there's no system to plan for you, you must rely on yourself," Xiang Qingde said.

Xiang Beifei had thought his grandfather would be able to help him, but he had not expected such a response.

"But I have no clue at all, you should at least point me in a direction," said Xiang Beifei.

"Although you lack a system, you possess a very special Spiritual Power. Realize that you can surpass all systems, and this is certainly not by chance. I'm sure it signifies something; perhaps the future me already knows why you lack a system, but the current me has little knowledge or memory about these matters," Xiang Qingde pondered for a moment, then added, "But over these past six months, I've researched your black and white Spiritual Power. I can infer that the two Orifice Perceptions within you are the key to stepping into the Heavenly Connection realm. You should follow this lead of the black and white Spiritual Power to find a breakthrough into the Heavenly Connection realm."

"Not having a system really is a bit troublesome," Xiang Beifei couldn't help but say.

Black and white Spiritual Power, this was a transformation that occurred to Xiang Beifei after entering the stage of orifice transforming, and it was also the most indecipherable matter for him. With no precedent and no system, he had to fumble through everything on his own, which was extremely challenging.

Xiang Qingde said, "I have a feeling, however vague, that everything, whether it's why you have two memories, what your parents were seeking, or why I've lost my memory… is tied to human systems. Perhaps by unraveling the origin of systems, all mysteries will be uncovered."

To Xiang Qingde, why humans possess systems is key to understanding everything.

"What about your system, Grandfather?" Xiang Beifei asked.

The Xiang Qingde before him was merely a consciousness with no system interface, but the real Xiang Qingde had a system, even if it was just a snowy screen.

Xiang Beifei still did not understand why his grandfather's system interface was a snowy screen, what kind of situation could lead to such a phenomenon, which had puzzled him all this time without an answer.

Xiang Qingde shook his head again; the consciousness did not contain memories about these matters, he didn't even know what his own system was.

"What about my parents' systems? Didn't you ask them the last time they were here?" Xiang Beifei asked.

"They had already reached the Heavenly Connection realm when they came here; I didn't pay much attention to those details," Xiang Qingde responded.

Those two, irresponsibly hidden in their true strength.

Xiang Beifei couldn't help but grumble internally.

After a pause, Xiang Qingde suddenly became very serious and said, "Although I lack future memories, the person who understands me the best must be myself. I can vaguely guess that you being without a system is to avoid some terrible calamity! Perhaps at the ends of the Outer Domain Wasteland, I encountered something extremely horrifying, for—"

He was silent for a long time before he finally spoke softly, "If even I felt hopeless, then it certainly isn't anything good."

Xiang Beifei remembered, during his time at Chou Hou, the strange words spoken by the one who transported him to Chen Hou, constantly talking of hopelessness.

Those points were clear to Xiang Qingde, but he could not confirm what exactly he had encountered afterward.

Xiang Beifei did not press further because questioning a consciousness from over thirty years ago was utterly meaningless; he hadn't even been born thirty years ago, and too many things could have changed since.

His own path, perhaps it lies deeper within the Outer Domain Wasteland; as to what exactly it might be, he couldn't clearly say. Yet, he understood that to enter the Heavenly Connection realm, he must continue moving forward.

For his parents were forever treading ahead of him.
