Seven Deadly Sins System

Chu Wuyao stared silently at her displayed information in the system panel, taking a look at her own progress.

In fact, despite the massive changes in her strength, the panel hadn't changed much since the last time she took a look at it, with the only differences being the increase in her Sin Points and the addition of the Cause and Effect Authority.

As she looked at the system, Chu Wuyao couldn't help but fall into thought.

When she first transmigrated to this world and had to face the chase of Li Ruoshi, as well as the dangerous environment of the Original Desire Sect, the system helped her very much.

She knew that without the system, it would be many times harder to reach her current state in such a short period of time.

But now that her strength had improved, her reliance on the system had been reduced by quite a lot.

Especially after she reached the Shackles Realm, Chu Wuyao didn't use the system very much, rarely spending her Sin Points.

The reason why she was able to progress so quickly was because of the opportunities she got in Inheritance World and her own talent.

Even so, Chu Wuyao didn't dare to underestimate the system.

"I hope that there will finally be some new changes after this breakthrough.", she whispered in a low voice.

By now, Chu Wuyao had understood that the system would change from time to time and its functions would be enhanced.

For example, the system helped her awaken the Devil Bloodline shortly after her transmigration and later allowed her to spend Sin Points to increase her understanding of Authorities.

It was fairly obvious that as her strength got stronger and she came into contact with more high-level objects and information, the system would change, revealing more of its capabilities.

Although it was likely that the system would become useless in the future, in Chu Wuyao's opinion, this wouldn't happen any time soon.

At the very least, before she became an Immortal, the system would still be useful to her.

Countless thoughts went through Chu Wuyao's mind, and soon after, she closed the system panel and turned her focus back to reality.

Looking at the room around her, she raised her hand to activate the formation and then confirmed that her Devil Clone was still standing outside, protecting her safety.

Then, she decided that it was time for her to break through.

Unlike the last time when she broke through the Shackles Realm and needed to ask for the following technique and had to inform the sect, this time, Chu Wuyao could choose to break through on her own.

She already had an understanding of how to break through, and the information she had collected surpassed the preparations of 99% of the Shackles Realm cultivators.

"Let's start.", Chu Wuyao thought.

The next moment, her thoughts extended everywhere in the room and the outline of the room appeared in her mind.

The ceiling, the floor, the objects in the room.

Everything appeared in her mind and it was as if she was able to see them with her own eyes.

However, Chu Wuyao didn't care about these items, and her focus turned to the area right above her head.

There seemed to be nothing there, but as Chu Wuyao focused, a somewhat illusory lock slowly formed and it was a lock that every Shackles Realm cultivator would be very familiar with.

It was a shackle.

"It's said that there are 9999 shackles that limit every human's potential, but that's not true."

"There are 10000.", Chu Wuyao thought and under the power of her mind, the illusory lock above her head changed.

Slowly, it became more and more real, turning from an illusion to something substantial.

The 10000th shackle wasn't in the human body, instead, it existed on the outside.

Unlike the previous shackles, this shackle didn't limit the strength of the human body, but instead, limited the people's connection with the outside world.

Exactly because of this, it was the shackle that was the most special one for cultivators.

As long as this shackle was broken, the connection between the cultivator and the world around them would strengthen, increasing their perception of the world.

With this increase, it would become many times easier to understand skills and Authorities, as well as awaken Visions.

Chu Wuyao looked at her 10000th shackle, and without any hesitation, she began to break through.

Her aura surged and the Mana inside her body moved and flowed outside, following her thoughts and rushing towards the shackle that flashed above her head.

"Bang!"

Her Mana collided with the shackle, and then, an unexpected thing happened.

The shackle was unable to put up any resistance and instantly shattered, turning into pieces that quickly disappeared.

If any cultivator who had broken through the Awakening Realm was here, they would be shocked by this sight.

Manifesting and shattering the 10000th was the first hurdle that every cultivator had to go through during their breakthrough to the Awakening Realm, and it was a test of the quality of the cultivator's Mana and the strength of their body.

Usually, even the best geniuses would have to work hard and spend many hours if not days to manifest the shackle and shatter it, while most ordinary cultivators would resort to consuming pills that enhanced their power for a short period.

Yet now, Chu Wuyao easily passed this hurdle, and it was clear that it was quite simple and easy for her.

To be honest, even Chu Wuyao was a little surprised by how easy it was, but she immediately realized why this happened.

Her strength was extraordinary and she had not only awakened her Vision, but her Six Paths Vision was obviously extraordinary, most likely surpassing the Supreme-Grade.

Just this was already enough to guarantee her breakthrough, but she had even gone a step further and strengthened the Six Paths Vision multiple times, enhancing the strength of her body and the quality of her Mana by a lot.

Under such circumstances, if Chu Wuyao had trouble shattering the 10000th shackle, then no Shackles Realm cultivator would succeed in their breakthrough.

"Sure enough, it was the right decision to accumulate as much strength as possible before the breakthrough. Not only will I get more benefits, but it will also be easier.", Chu Wuyao thought, but she quickly suppressed these thoughts.

She knew that now was not the time for her to be distracted and that the second stage of the breakthrough, and arguably the most difficult, was about to begin.

With that in mind, Chu Wuyao immediately closed her eyes and emptied her mind, knowing that the second stage was coming.

Indeed, she didn't need to wait for long, as the very next second after she closed her eyes, an inexplicable high-level power appeared, pulling her mind into an illusion.

The second stage of the breakthrough, the Heart Demon Tribulation had begun!

****

When Chu Wuyao opened her eyes again, she felt a sharp pain all over her body, a pain that made her feel that somebody had broken every single bone of her body.

A somewhat familiar stone ceiling was reflected in her gray eyes, and the messy room around her let her know her current location.

She was currently in her residence in the Outer Area, her first "home" in this world.

Surprisingly, Chu Wuyao didn't show any abnormal reaction to her sudden appearance in this place, as if it were perfectly normal.

After she took a look around her, she pushed her hands against the bed, wanting to get up.

Unfortunately, the pain all over her body made it difficult for her to move, let alone stand up.

"Damn it! It's already hard enough to transmigrate to this dangerous world. Why did I have to possess the body of a fatally injured person?", Chu Wuyao thought as she gritted her teeth, and her hatred for the woman who injured the previous owner of this body became even more intense.

Just as she was complaining, some messy memories poured into her mind.

When she went through them, Chu Wuyao found that the protagonist of all these memories was herself, but surprisingly, these memories were not of the past, but of the future.

She watched these memories as if they were scenes of a movie and personally witnessed her own journey.

The activation of a system, her meeting with Ruan Yi, the chase of Li Ruoshi, the sect mission in her hometown with the help of Xia Qianyue, the sect competition, the inheritance of the Mist Dragon, and her breakthrough to the Shackles Realm.

Her entrance to the Inheritance World, her many experiences in it, and her hasty escape using the Teleportation Talisman.

Countless memories appeared in front of her in the form of a "movie", and they were basically the same as her real experiences.

However, there was also a massive difference.

In these memories, Chu Wuyao didn't enter the Heart Demon Tribulation, but instead, something went wrong during her breakthrough and resulted in her untimely death.

By the time she was finished watching, the expressions of Chu Wuyao had become strange.

"Apart from transmigrating, was I also reborn?", she thought, but she felt that there was a bigger possibility that these memories were part of a bigger conspiracy.

Regardless, thinking that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try, she decided to make an attempt.

Just like she did in the memories she received, she tried to bring up the system panel, but just like she expected, nothing happened.

"Sure enough, these memories were a lie."
