Chapter 17: Chapter 17: The First Lottery Draw
The current situation faced by Yun Chuan was quite awkward. He was like a whale that could only grow in the vast ocean but was born in a small lake.
Under normal circumstances, with abundant food and a vast sea to roam, he could have grown into a massive whale. But being confined to a narrow lake with scarce resources made it impossible for him to thrive. The lack of space to stretch out and the absence of sufficient fish to feed on made it evident that growing large was out of the question.
Thus, Yun Chuan's only idea to break out of this predicament was to use his lottery opportunity. If luck was on his side, he might obtain cultivation techniques from other worlds. Techniques like the Taoist scriptures from Covering the Sky or the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique and Eight-Nine Mysteries Technique from The Primordial World. Even a lesser item like an elixir or divine fruit from those realms would suffice. He wasn't picky—anything was better than the cultivation system of the Douluo Continent.
[Status Panel]
Name: Yun Chuan
Charm: 100 (Full charm! Your charisma surpasses racial boundaries! To any living being, you are the most dazzling star! Even across the multiverse, your charm ranks among the very elite few!)

Novice Reward: One free lottery draw (The lottery offers endless possibilities, allowing you to obtain anything.)
Current World: Douluo Continent
Available Worlds for Travel: None (Travel conditions not met!)
Yun Chuan's eyes lingered on the "Available Worlds for Travel" section at the bottom of the panel. Undoubtedly, this system had a function to traverse worlds. However, for some reason, he currently did not meet the conditions for using it. If this function could be activated, he could venture into higher-level worlds to seize opportunities or low-level ones to grow and prepare with the advantage of time.
Sadly, the feature was locked, and Yun Chuan had no clue what conditions needed to be met to unlock it.
After much deliberation, Yun Chuan refocused on the "One Free Lottery Draw" option displayed on the panel. Taking a deep breath, he silently murmured in his heart, "Use the lottery draw!"
As soon as he issued the command, the sci-fi-like light screen transformed into a massive lottery wheel!
The wheel was densely packed with countless items, making it impossible to count them all. Yun Chuan squinted, trying to identify the items listed and found an incredible variety—practically everything imaginable!
The wheel was divided into three levels: Low-level, Mid-level, and High-level.
High-level Zone: Items like "Daily Lottery System," "Breath-to-God System," "Pretend Master System," "Overacting System," "Simulation System," "Soft Rice System," "Upgrade System," "Saint Path Fruits of the Multiverse," and "Three Thousand Dao Crystals" occupied this space. Though scarce, with only a few dozen items, they embodied the idea of rarity and value.
Mid-level Zone: Contained items like "Peaches of Immortality," "Ginseng Fruit," "Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique," "Eternal Scripture," "Heavenly Transformation Technique," and "Two-Dimensional Foil." This section was noticeably fuller, featuring over a thousand items.
Low-level Zone: Items included "A Bag of Chips," "Half a Watermelon," "Partially Eaten Instant Noodles," "Rusty Old Rifle," "Soiled Diaper," "Fresh Cow Dung," "Super Soldier Serum," and even "A WWII Tank." This junk category dominated 99.99999% of the wheel's space.
Yun Chuan stared at the overwhelming array of items. The odds of obtaining something from the Mid-level or High-level zones seemed slim. But should he manage to land a system or something like a Saint Path Fruit, it would catapult him to the pinnacle of power. Conversely, he could just as easily end up with fresh cow dung or a used diaper.
In essence, it all came down to luck.
Having never had great luck with lotteries in his previous life, Yun Chuan wasn't particularly optimistic. But he figured that since the draw was free, there was nothing to lose.
"Let's do this!" Yun Chuan closed his eyes and silently gave the command.
Ding!
Congratulations to the host for obtaining a High-level...
Before the notification finished, Yun Chuan's eyes snapped open in disbelief, and he exclaimed, "No way! Did I just get lucky?!"
He had mentally prepared himself for a Mid-level item at best. But to his utter astonishment, he had hit the jackpot and won a High-level item.
Could this be the start of his invincible journey across the multiverse?
The wheel vanished, replaced by a radiant rune emanating a mysterious aura.
"This... doesn't look like a system," Yun Chuan frowned, puzzled. He mentally activated the description, causing the panel to change.
[Item: Flesh Sanctification Technique]
"Become a source, create your own world."
"So, it's a cultivation technique..." Yun Chuan felt a slight pang of disappointment. High-level items were mostly systems, which offered rapid growth. A cultivation technique, while valuable, required time and effort. Still, it was from the High-level category, so it couldn't be too bad.
Reading the description, Yun Chuan quickly realized the technique was anything but ordinary.
"Become a source, create your own world."
The "sanctification" mentioned in the title didn't refer to becoming a saint in the context of the Primordial World. Here, "saint" meant "supreme."
This technique allowed one to nurture a world within their body, transforming themselves into that world.
The possibilities were staggering: What if every cell in his body held the essence of a boundless universe? And with countless cells making up his being, his potential would be unimaginable.
Unable to contain his excitement, Yun Chuan eagerly claimed the technique. A radiant rune materialized before him, merging into his soul.
Yet, just as his anticipation peaked, a cold notification echoed in his mind:
"Current physique does not meet the minimum requirements for cultivation."
"...What?!"
The rune, now residing in his mind, seemed indifferent to his confusion. No further information or guidance was provided. Yun Chuan felt utterly defeated.
Of all the things to draw,
A technique he couldn't even use yet.
Was there anything more frustrating?
