CHAPTER 63: CHAPTER 62: BOUGHT FOR ZERO YUAN?

Seeing the three version options appearing before him, Lu Yan couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth, feeling the malice from version updates for the first time.

Without a doubt, none of these three world versions were to be trifled with.

The first Main God version, paired with that classic line "Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you really want to... live?", Lu Yan was one hundred percent sure this version was the Main God Space.

In terms of obtaining benefits, the Main God version was undoubtedly the best choice among the three versions.

Whether it was the diverse cultivation systems or the encyclopedia-like exchange list in the Main God Space, and the different world instances involved, all represented incomparable advantages.

Under normal circumstances, even if Lu Yan crossed several versions, he would have to cultivate step by step from the Qi Refining Stage, and it was almost impossible to become a powerhouse overnight.

However, in the Main God Space, everything is possible.

But...

"This is a pitfall!"

Lu Yan couldn’t help but mutter softly.

The Main God Space version had many sorts, like the Original Infinite Stream, Multi-Dimensional Main God Stream, Slaughter Space Stream, Creation Instance Stream, with so many types that made one’s scalp tingle.

But more importantly, behind any version of the Main God Space were bottomless pitfalls.

If Lu Yan, as an Unchanging, entered the Main God Space, he would most likely face the Main God directly.

If the Main God of the Main God version were just a big ball of light running according to rules, that would be fine, but once it had its own wisdom, the secrets Lu Yan carried, his exhibited Xianxia system, and the traits of the Unchanging would most likely attract the Main God’s investigation.

By that time, if casually issued a certain death obliteration task, Lu Yan could only be at others’ mercy.

"No way! The Main God version is absolutely out!"

Shifting his gaze to the second version, merely judging from the surface of the text, this Rule Ghost version seemed to be the most suitable version for Lu Yan.

The Hundred Souls Banner that Lu Yan mastered held eight hundred Rule Ghosts. In such a Rule Ghost version, wouldn’t Lu Yan be like a fish in water?

With the help of the Hundred Souls Banner to suppress the Rule Ghosts and capture them in the banner, he might casually break through into the Thousand Souls Banner and upgrade it to a magical artifact quality.

Even at first glance, Lu Yan subconsciously wanted to choose the Rule Ghost version.

However, all his thoughts vanished when Lu Yan saw the sentence behind the Rule Ghost version.

"My name is Lu Yan, by the time you see this sentence, I am already dead."

Without any accidents, this sentence should come from some parchment; its appearance signified that the Rule Ghost version wasn’t the ghost Lu Yan had known.

Even if ordinary ghosts were mighty, their strength was comparable to Golden Core or Nascent Soul, which was still within the understandable range and could be called living beings.

But the Rule Ghosts in the Rule Ghost version, rather than calling them ghosts, were more like a distorted rule presented in ghost form in the human world.

They couldn’t be killed and had ability at the rule level themselves, with powers like Domain Control, Touch of Death, Time Reversal, Universal Wishing that might appear in a Rule Ghost. Only mastering rules could give a chance to fight against it.

Not to mention Lu Yan, who was only at the middle stage of Qi Cultivation, even a Nascent Soul Great Power entering wouldn’t likely survive a frontal encounter with a Rule Ghost.

The seemingly best option hid the biggest pit among the three versions.

Glancing at the Soul Banner in the storage bag, Lu Yan touched his chin and couldn’t help but mutter softly:

"It’s a pity that the level of the Hundred Souls Banner is still too low. If in some version the Soul Banner could acquire related concept abilities, like capturing all ghosts, maybe it could take on the Rule Ghost version."

"After all, a Rule Ghost is also a ghost! If it could raise a few in the Soul Banner, even in the Xianxia version, it could traverse horizontally!"

Of course, Lu Yan could only think of such an idea.

Avoiding the two must-avoid pitfalls, Lu Yan naturally had only one option left.

This was the second time Lu Yan saw the Cyber version, the first was when he just returned to the Urban version as one of the options.

But what surprised Lu Yan was that the texts behind the two Cyber versions were not the same.

The text the first time talked about Universal Giant Corporation building a sky curtain making sunlight a luxury, and this time it was about Universal Giant Corporation taxing Spiritual Energy for three hundred years.

Even the version updates condemned the atrocities of Universal Giant Corporation, which reminded Lu Yan of a certain place called Goose City.

"This Universal Giant Corporation is even harsher than Master Huang."

If he had any choice, Lu Yan didn’t want to enter the Cyber version.

The Cyber version did not match his cultivation system, making it difficult to gain any benefits.

Moreover, the twice variation in the texts behind the Cyber version indicated that this version was controlled by a behemoth called the Universal Giant Corporation, imposing extremely high pressure and authoritarian rule.

The existence of Spiritual Energy and the cyber background indicated this version had Extraordinary Systems and advanced technology beyond modern cities.

Even as an outsider with some skill, Lu Yan might not be able to make it in the Cyber version.

Unfortunately, Lu Yan had no other choice.

"Choose Cyber version!"

In an instant, the world version updated!

The desolate mountain forest where Lu Yan stood seemed to be wiped away by an invisible hand, replaced by buildings made of steel and concrete.

The soil under his feet was replaced by cement ground, and the surrounding walls were covered with mottled neon graffiti, with garbage scattered in the corners, and the black puddles emitting a foul stench.

The place where Lu Yan stood had transformed from a desolate mountain wilderness into a dark and chaotic city alley.

Looking into the distance, what he saw were bright-colored skyscrapers soaring into the sky, seemingly merging with the heavens.

Rails were weaving between the towering buildings with floating cars flying in the sky, presenting a futuristic urban scene.

Lu Yan compared the dark alley he was in with the wave of towering buildings and urban area, seemingly in two completely different worlds.

Lu Yan furrowed his brow and softly muttered:

"Is this the Cyber version?"

Then, Lu Yan looked at the other end of the alley, where he had previously placed his Spirit Stone Magical Artifact for experimentation.

The originally placed Spirit Stone, a few books, and a worn-out inferior magical artifact had disappeared, replaced by a blue battery the length of a finger and a USB drive, and nothing else.

"There was actually a gain?"

Lu Yan’s eyes revealed some unexpected surprise, as he stepped forward intending to pick up the battery and USB drive on the ground.

Just at that moment, a man wearing a jersey rushed out from the corner of the alley, grabbed the battery and USB drive off the ground, and ran toward the other end of the alley at full speed, showcasing his racial talent to the fullest at that moment.

Lu Yan looked at the man with pitch-black skin and dreadlocks, his mind freezing for a second.

"Did I just... get zero yuan bought?"
