Seized by the System

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sir System arrived at Morality City without informing Tom the Cat. He had decided to secretly inspect it in the skies above.

Not long after, Fang Ning discovered an unusual plot of land from the System view, and quickly got Sir System to make a stop.

The valley land under their feet was heavy with a thick, greyish atmosphere. It was situated on the South East side of Morality City, which was supposed to be a bustling area that was 300 kilometers away. There was a wide and flat road in the middle connecting it.

Right beneath that greyish atmosphere, one could see from the sky faint outlines of many black plants covering the land.

There was not a single tinge of green found on these black plants. It was pitch black color from stem to leaves, emanating a sense of eeriness.

The only other color seen were white flowers growing between the branches, looking like many demon faces cascading upon each other with a clear sense of black and white, which was frightening to watch.

Fang Ning had long since become more courageous yet he could not help but shiver over this scene.

"This is so scary. What is Tom the Cat thinking?" Fang Ning said fearfully.

"What's there to be afraid of? Tom the Cat had reported this before. It said that this is a Vitality Herb favored by demons called the Ghost-Faced Flower. Long term consumption will help strengthen a spirit's body and increase their abilities. It's cheap and easy to grow. Many of these were planted in the Upper Realm," Sir System explained with disdain.

"So, it is from the Upper Realm. Looks like he brought many seeds with him," nodded Fang Ning.

"That's right. Looks like it wasn't cheated out of its treasures by Elder Ancestor Bai, unlike Chong Daqing and the River God of the Sky River. They lost everything to him," realized Sir System.

"Looks like Tom the Cat went all out, it even made an investment by itself…" said a surprised Fang Ning.

"Looks like it. Mr. Rich Boss, you lied to me again. Tom the Cat looks like an assertive person to me…" said Sir System with disdain.

"I didn't. It's just that I suddenly remembered that Tom the Cat and that Claus guy shared a similarity. Besides being slaves, they are both…spies. Spies are very assertive because they need to perform in order to climb up the hierarchy," Fang Ning explained defiantly.

"Yes, you are always the one with reason. I've finally seen you for who you are, a person who is good at shooting his mouth off," Sir System said in contempt.

"I'm not spouting useless words, that was, in fact, the truth of the matter," Fang Ning asserted.

At the moment, a ferocious black tiger suddenly looked up into the sky, sensing something.

"Hey, Tom the Cat is quite alert. We've hidden ourselves so well and yet it detected us. It is truly a cat," Fang Ning quickly changed the subject.

"What alert? It's because it is wearing a System binding tool, making it being able to sense me, just like that torn-up book," Sir System replied with disdain.

"Oh, is that the case? Looks like it was a blessing in disguise for Tom the Cat," Fang Ning replied in embarrassment at the blunder.

Not long after, Tom the Tiger flew halfway into the air and cupped his paws towards an empty space, saying, "Master has come from afar. Please forgive this tiger for not being able to welcome you."

"Urm, this fellow is really humbling himself. We have never taken him in as a slave yet now he is taking the initiative to recognize us as masters. He must be harboring some ulterior motive," reminded Fang Ning.

"I'm not afraid of its ulterior motives, I'm more worried if it doesn't do its job properly," Sir System replied nonchalantly.

Vigilante A revealed himself at this point, looking Tom the Cat right in the face.

"No worries. I came here to inspect your recent results. I've been looking around and you are indeed an honest tiger and didn't lie in your reports. You have yielded good results. This bottle of Honey-flavored pills is your reward," Vigilante A pulled out a jade bottle with light red pills in them as he said this.

"Thank you master for this reward," Tom the Cat's had a grateful look on his face but he was actually feeling conflicted in his heart.

After such a long period of hard work, all he got was this bottle of pills. Even though it was rare and hardly obtainable by the outside world no matter how much gold they had, Tom the Cat was nevertheless a hero of sorts. It was fully capable of trading a bottle of this by its own merits.

It was lucky that Tom the Cat remained in Morality City. He had again started to research this Secret Realm of the Heavenly Axiom and had already gained a certain comprehension over it.

Vigilante A had indeed used its dark blue orb to conform with the Heavenly Axiom and control the one in this realm.

However, Vigilante A did not become one with this Heavenly Axiom, which means that there was a vacancy for it.

It was not moved by such a small gift. It was a cat of broad horizons, a skilled diplomat and was greatly ambitious.

It had never held the Upper Realm's Death in any regard, what more a true dragon?

It was now suffering under Vigilante A as a temporary measure, it would definitely be standing on its own in the future.

"How long more would you need in order to harvest the Ghost-Faced flowers? Are there any other highly effective Yin attributed herbs?" asked Vigilante A lightly.

"It's lucky that master is aware that the flower will be fully grown in another month or so. With the help of this realm, we can even harvest them after a week as this place is thick with Yin Energy, a rare treasure land in this world. You can never find another with these conditions in the other realms. Even if there are other lands with Yin Energy that matches here, it would still be impossible for them to achieve much without the help of the Heavenly Axiom. Here, master controls the heaven and earth, which makes what we do possible," Tom the Cat finally started to reveal his wild ambition.

It was true. It wanted Vigilante A to use the Heavenly Axiom in this realm and then slowly earned his trust. Once it was able to grasp the method of using the Heavenly Axiom, it would be able to cultivate herbs quickly.

According to its observation, Vigilante A had placed the utmost importance on these herbs, which meant that it was not impossible to achieve its plans.

If it achieved success in this, there were high hopes that it would be able to overturn his fate and become the master instead.

Tom the Cat became eagerly attentive and his smile became wider at the thought.

"Urm, this fellow's smile is creepy. You'd better be careful, Sir System." Fang Ning shivered at the look, unable to get used to it.

"What do I need to be careful for. I decide its life and death. Stupid cat," Sir System was not worried at all.

So, Vigilante lightly said, "This is good news. What requests do you have? Tell me and I will utilize the Heavenly Axiom to help you achieve them."

"You are indeed great, Master. This tiger is greatly impressed. It's like this…" Tom the Cat then proceeded to explain the many needs in order to grow the Ghost-Faced flower.

Vigilante A nodded after hearing them.

Then he flipped his hand and out came the dark blue orb. Tom the Cat's eyes gleamed at its appearance.

It was a look of hate from Tom the Cat, the orb was supposed to belong to it but the little grey ant led a thief into its home and stole the orb. It probably did not benefit much from the theft and must have been given one or two pills.

It thought hatefully, if it had known this would happen, it would have spent a hundred pills to bribe the ant not to steal its treasure.

Despite the hate, Tom the Cat continued staring at Vigilante A as the orb floated halfway into the air and suddenly burst into a million lights.

Heaven and Earth changed color and the clouds rolled in the skies with the wind…

It later discovered that the lower area of the herb garden had the weather, temperature, humidity and even the sunlight adjusted to the request it made earlier as if a strange energy was controlling the situation.

This was the power of the Heavenly Axiom, and this was only a small portion of land that was hundreds and thousands of square kilometers!

No wonder there were so many Gods and deities in the Upper Realm trying their utmost to conform with the Heavenly Axiom. One can only imagine how much energy and power can be released by this limitless heaven and earth.

The true power yielded by the Earth's Heavenly Axiom was even more incredible.

Tom the Cat's thought and emotions came at him in waves, his greed increasing rapidly at the moment. All these were supposed to belong to it.

Vigilante A barged in halfway through and stole everything, based on what merit? Just because he was luckier?

Tom the Cat came to his senses after a while, and quickly said, "Master, everything is at its place, you can stop your Spiritual Ascension."

"Good. You must put in more effort in taking care of this and continue to expand the harvest area and increase production. Don't worry, as long as you do your job well and not get distracted or stop persevering, I will grant you a metamorphosis of spiritual ascension," Vigilante A fed Tom the Cat Chicken Herbal Soup at the same time.

"Yes, yes, this tiger will remember this deeply," Tom the Cat faked his gratitude.

Who would want a metamorphosis of spiritual ascension, this cat definitely did not want to be a monk! This cat wanted to be a god, with tens of millions of concubines, all of them the prettiest female cats. Anyone older than two years old will be disqualified!

"Good, I will be leaving now. Continue your good work," Vigilante A nodded, expressing his satisfaction and then disappeared.

Tom the Cat watched in a daze before flying back down.
