Chapter 8

After digging through the ground for over ten meters, there was finally some movement below.

A golden light shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire cave until it became incomparably dazzling.

Although he was already in the soul division realm, Jiang Cheng felt that it was difficult for him to even stand upright. His eyes, which were originally many times sharper, actually could not see the scene in front of him clearly.

He could only see a transparent crystal the size of a finger floating at the center of the beam of light. Amidst of the blurriness, it was as if a human figure had appeared within the crystal.

After that, he died.

When his soul floated out of his body, brother Cheng was dumbfounded.

Although he felt that his biggest goal in the future was to have more experts kill him and constantly thought about how to die, he had truly been unprepared this time.

Who would have thought that he would die while digging up a treasure.

This world was too damn dangerous!

Were it not for the system, he would not have been able to survive for even two hours after transmigrating.

“Ding! The host has been killed by a world heart fragment…”

Jiang Cheng was powerless to retort. To have been killed by a world heart fragment, this death sounded a little too shameful.

“Host’s current level is 2 and can resurrect twice a day. Activating the second resurrection chance and, at the same time, bestowing upon the host the world origin aura.”

“With this aura, the world heart fragment will recognize you as its master.”

During the process of Jiang Cheng’s resurrection, the world heart fragment that had just been dug out also underwent a miraculous transformation.

The crystal became fainter and fainter, and the human figure became more and more concrete. In the end, it transformed into a naked baby.

As soon as it landed on the ground, the baby grew as the wind blew.

By the time Jiang Cheng’s eyes opened after his resurrection, she had already grown to become a three or four-year-old child.

She did not stop growing until she was the height of a five or six-year-old child.

“Is this the form of the world heart fragment?”

“Has it become a spirit?”

Jiang Cheng’s ability to accept changes was very strong. In any case, anything was possible in this world.

A moment later, however, he almost broke down.

The girl with disheveled hair and delicate skin rolled her black eyes, and then took small steps forward.

She stretched out a pair of chubby little hands and pounced on him.

“Mommy!”

“You’re the mommy here!”

Pfft..

Jiang Cheng nearly vomited blood.

He knew that this was all because of the system, and that the fragment had recognized him as its master on account of some kind of world origin aura.

He had also heard of some small animals that would recognize the first animal they saw as their parents after breaking out of their eggs.

However, he did not expect that the world heart fragment would also recognize its master in this way.

Moreover, it was calling out to him as its mother…

This girl was extremely strong, and Jiang Cheng was almost knocked backward by her.

After struggling to get up, she opened her arms again and called out in a childish voice.

“Hug, mommy, hug me!”

The corners of Jiang Cheng’s mouth twitched as he carried her up.

“I’m your father. Can’t you see that I’m a handsome man?”

The little girl suddenly burst into tears. “Mommy doesn’t want me anymore, sob sob sob…”

She hugged him even tighter, and Jiang Cheng felt like his neck was being strangled.

He could only adjust his tone of voice.

“Be good. I just want you to call me daddy, okay?”

“Mommy!”

“Do you not understand human language?”

“Mom!”

By the time he came out, Jiang Cheng’s handsome face was drenched in spittle and saliva.

However, he still lost when it came to how she addressed him.

Ji Linghan, who was standing outside the cave entrance, could not even straighten her back from all the laughter.

She did not realize that Jiang Cheng had died again, but she still saw the process of the fragment recognizing him as its master after it transformed.

Although she had never heard of the world heart fragment, she knew that it had to be an extremely high-grade natural treasure if it could transform like that.

“Congratulations, sect master!”

She now regarded Jiang Cheng as a fellow sect member. It was a great joy that the sect master had managed to tame this rare treasure.

However, when she spoke, she could not help but cover her mouth, stifling a snicker.

As a man, brother Cheng felt very embarrassed to be called ‘mommy’.

“You should also teach her to change her form of addressing me. I don’t think this little friend knows anything at all.”

“Oh right, I’ll wash her later and prepare a set of clothes for her.”

After saying that, he handed the little girl over.

“Okay!”

This child was so adorable that Ji Linghan had wanted to hug her for a long time.

However, the little girl pouted and her face crumpled up.

“No! I only want my mother!”

This made Ji Linghan very embarrassed. Her big, watery eyes were filled with disappointment.

However, Jiang Cheng was very satisfied. It seemed that the fragment had fully recognized him as its master.

“Good kid, this auntie is one of us. She will teach you many things. Be obedient.”

The little girl looked at Jiang Cheng, and then at Ji Linghan, before she finally agreed.

“I’ll listen to mommy.”

Jiang Cheng was comforted. “Such a good child!”

Ji Linghan also happily picked up the child, and then she fell down.

Sh*t!

Jiang Cheng reacted quickly and held her up.

“What are you doing? Did you kill her?”

The system could only resurrect him and not others!

Jiang Cheng had a good impression of Ji Linghan.

This girl was not like other cultivators who would fight and kill each other whenever they saw each other. When she saw that he had obtained a treasure, she was not greedy and avaricious; she had a good heart.

Even if he had not been her sect master, he did not want to see anything happen to her.

The little girl pursed her lips and smiled. She shook her head. “I didn’t kill her. She will wake up soon.”

“Ah?”

Jiang Cheng checked and found that Ji Linghan had indeed just fainted.

“What did you do to her?”

“Didn’t mommy ask me to learn from her? I entered her consciousness and learned all of her knowledge.”

After the little girl spoke, she waved her hand and a circle of pink light surrounded her like stars.

Then, she put on a small dress.

Her messy hair fluttered in the wind and miraculously formed two pigtails.

Looking at her now, she seemed no different from any other human girl…

Other than the fact that she was cuter.
