Chapter 1 I actually became Yang Jian's brother-in-law!
Drain the estuary.
Located in the heart of the eastern land, it is where three rushing rivers converge.
The three rivers, like three silver ribbons, converge here to form a natural bottle-shaped estuary, resembling a giant treasure bottle receiving the sweet dew falling from the sky.
Therefore, it was named "Guanjiangkou".
At this moment, not far from the mouth of the Guanjiang River, a ragged young man stood on the edge of a steep cliff.
His clothes were covered in mud, but he didn't care. His gaze pierced through the rising smoke, fixed on the house in the distance that was being consumed by raging flames—the house that had once been their home.
However, his face showed no sadness, but rather a look of surprise.
"I never imagined that I, Chen Changsheng, would actually be able to transmigrate to the prehistoric world!"
"What's even more incredible is that I've actually become Erlang Shen Yang Jian's brother-in-law and the husband of the Third Holy Mother Yang Chan. This is just too surreal..."
"..."
Chen Changsheng was filled with disbelief.
To understand all of this, we have to start with a tomb raiding experience five years ago.
Chen Changsheng's ancestors were descendants of the Xieling sect.
Five years ago, he went on an adventure to Shennongjia with his elders and heard that the tomb of Shennong had been discovered there.
Eventually, they found a cemetery.
However, the moment the tomb was opened, a burst of light suddenly erupted, causing the entire tomb to collapse.
When he opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find that he was not dead, but had been rescued by a girl and taken home.
Although he didn't know why he had survived the disaster, in the days that followed, Chen Changsheng learned that he was no longer on Earth, but had come to an ancient world.
Since he was already there, Chen Changsheng decided to make the best of it and settled down in the area. At the same time, he and the girl who saved him began to develop feelings for each other.
Just three days ago, when they were preparing for their wedding, the void suddenly exploded, and many heavenly soldiers emerged from it.
The leader of the immortals claimed that they were ordered to capture the fairy Yao Ji.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng realized that he had arrived in the prehistoric world, and the woman he was about to marry was none other than the famous Third Holy Mother Yang Chan.
When Chen Changsheng first arrived here, he already knew the names of the family.
Since it was just a coincidence that he shared a name with a figure from mythology, he didn't think much of it.
Yao Ji naturally resisted the heavenly soldiers' attempt to capture her, but was ultimately arrested.
However, at the last moment, she used her great supernatural powers to send them away, so as to prevent them from falling into the hands of the Heavenly Court.
Where should I go next?
Chen Changsheng couldn't help but start thinking.
As for the safety of others, as a qualified transmigrator, he naturally had no worries.
If Yang Jian is not mistaken, he should have been found by Yu Ding and taken in as a disciple of the Chan Sect by now.
His wife, Yang Chan, would likely be brought to the Daoist temple by someone sent by the sage Nuwa to cultivate.
As for his father-in-law Yang Tianyou and elder brother Yang Jiao, he didn't know much about them, because information about these two people rarely appeared in mythology.
【Ding! 】
[Congratulations, Master, on successfully surviving for 1,825 days in the prehistoric world.]
[Treasure Hunt System Activated!]
Upon hearing this voice, Chen Changsheng shuddered, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
"That voice...that tone..."
"system?"
"A cheat code?"
As a time traveler, Chen Changsheng was extremely familiar with this.
After transmigrating to this world, he longed for the appearance of a cheat system day and night.
Now, my wish has finally come true!
At this moment, as the system notification sounded in Chen Changsheng's mind, he felt a surge of heat rush to his head, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
"Holy crap! It really is the system!"
Chen Changsheng roared inwardly.
"My cheat code has finally arrived!"
"The chance to defy fate has arrived!"
Chen Changsheng was secretly thrilled.
After a long while, he finally managed to suppress his excitement, and with a sudden thought, he said impatiently:
"system!"
"Quick! Tell me what functions you have!"
Soon, a system notification sounded in Chen Changsheng's mind:
【Ding! 】
[Treasure Hunting System: One Level 1 Treasure Map is issued daily.]
[The owner can follow the treasure map to the treasure location to dig for treasure, or collect treasure maps to synthesize higher-level treasure maps.]
Ten level 1 treasure maps can be combined to create one level 2 treasure map, ten level 2 treasure maps can be combined to create a level 3 treasure map, and so on, up to a maximum of level 9 treasure maps.
Meanwhile, treasure chests will also drop in various parts of the prehistoric world, which the player can search for and dig up.
[System Bonus: One shovel.]
[Shovel, of the Untouchable Rank, specifically for treasure hunting, and can disregard all laws and rules.]
Upon hearing the system's concise introduction, Chen Changsheng's heart began to race.
"Can I get treasure maps every day?"
"You can also synthesize advanced treasure maps."
"It can be synthesized up to level 9!"
"Isn't this like getting treasures every day?"
Chen Changsheng was secretly delighted.
"A shovel? Though it may not be a treasure-grade item, it can ignore all laws and rules?"
"Wouldn't that mean it could even break through the restrictions imposed by a saint?"
"This shovel is only used for digging for treasure; otherwise, it's just an ordinary shovel."
Just as Chen Changsheng was in shock, the system notification sounded again:
【Ding! 】
[Detected that the owner has opened the treasure hunting system for the first time, obtaining one level 3 treasure map.]
【Should we use it immediately?】
"use!"
Without a second thought, Chen Changsheng chose to use it.
I also want to see what kind of treasure this treasure map can uncover.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Changsheng was surprised to find that a phantom map appeared before his eyes, with a golden dot of light flashing not far away.
At the same time, a system notification sounded:
[A hidden treasure trove.]
[One hundred meters ahead.]
"It's so close?"
Chen Changsheng was both surprised and delighted, and subconsciously touched the shovel that had suddenly appeared at his waist.
The shovel was entirely black and looked ordinary, yet it faintly exuded an aura of chaos.
Chen Changsheng is now just a mortal, and he can't see anything suspicious about him.
Chen Changsheng pulled a shovel from his waist and stared intently ahead.
Chen Changsheng brought down his shovel again, and a metallic sound immediately came from the pit, as if he had hit something.
Chen Changsheng had already dug through the soil, and a bronze-colored treasure box was revealed.
The box was covered with obscure and difficult-to-understand Dao patterns, with streams of innate energy flowing endlessly around it.
Open the treasure box!
A white aura appeared, half of which merged into Chen Changsheng's body, and the other half flew into the void.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, Master, on obtaining a master-disciple bond. Because of this bond, you will surely be accepted as a disciple by a powerful figure."
"..."
Hearing the system's voice,
Chen Changsheng was naturally delighted; just when he was really sleepy, someone brought him a pillow.
To travel freely in the primordial world, one definitely needs a powerful master to support them.
But he was just an ordinary mortal; how easy was it for him to become a disciple of a powerful figure?
that's it,
Chen Changsheng followed the white mist and went there.
