Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Ji Zhi looked at his daughter who was beaming with happiness, and he couldn’t quite put his feelings into words.

“My dear, why do you forgo being the Zhou Emperor to seek out the title of Human Emperor? Is there any thrill in it?”

Ji Zhi, troubled, had wholeheartedly groomed his daughter to be the Zhou Emperor. Yet she showed no interest and instead was now being supported by Jiang Li.

Ji Zhi believed in his daughter’s strength, sure that she was bound to become the Human Emperor.

Ji Kongkong was the first to know that she was a candidate for the Human Emperor. Using her double-pupils, she foresaw a future where she would become a contender in a few hours.

She had already been elated for several hours beforehand.

“Of course it’s thrilling! I want to be a great person like Uncle Jiang.” Ji Kongkong swiftly replied without even thinking.

Ji Zhi retorted, “Can’t you learn something useful? Besides being powerful and broad-hearted, altruistic, upright, and generous, what other merits does your Uncle Jiang have?”

Ji Kongkong thought for a moment. It seemed that Uncle Jiang had only these virtues.

Ji Zhi felt the need to recount to Ji Kongkong the unfavorable things Jiang Li did when she was studying.

The more Ji Kongkong heard, the more she found Jiang Li’s thinking diverged from the norm: “So that’s it. If you contemplate over things normal people cannot, it allows you to reach heights they cannot achieve.”

Ji Zhi sighed helplessly. Was that the point?

…..

“Xiaofeng, you’ve become a candidate for the Human Emperor?” Sister Wu Lian understood the significance of this event, and simultaneously, it also meant that Yu Feng was extraordinarily outstanding.

“Yes.” Yu Feng responded with a smile.

“However, this is just the beginning, my advantage is slight, it’s too early to celebrate.” Yu Feng held Sister Wu Lian in his arms, planned for their future, contemplating his weak points and how to overcome them. For those points which he couldn’t, he would learn to underscore abilities and dodge deficiencies.

Wu Lian felt sweet encouragement in her heart, thinking that Yu Feng was indeed dependable.

“Speaking of which, the announcement of you becoming a candidate happened about six hours ago, right?” Sister Wu Lian seemed to remember something.

“Six hours and a bit.”

“You haven’t run into any danger for such a stretch of time?” Sister Wu Lian was overjoyed.

Before meeting Jiang Li, Yu Feng had died tens of thousands of times, his luck constantly at its worst.

Since Yu Feng arrived at Kyushu, his fortune had improved somewhat, switching from inevitable doom to a half-and-half of fatal trials and harm trials.

Luckily, Yu Feng is not the same as before. He learned a lot during his time with Jiang Li. The present him was duly cautious and equipped well enough to cope with calamities. Though he could manage, he had to be extra careful and be on guard all the time, which was a test of spiritual power.

Encountering seven to eight calamities a day, he had to deal with them carefully.

To his surprise, the calamities had vanished after he became a candidate for the Human Emperor.

Yu Feng analyzed, “Mr. Jiang once said, candidates for the Human Emperor are selected by the Earth’s veins. The latter would control the candidates’ luck, allowing them to grow quickly.”

“Perhaps the Earth’s veins have adjusted my luck, eradicating my bad fortune.”

“That’s why,” Jiang Li’s voice echoed in their ears.

…

“Master, I can’t believe we both became candidates for the Human Emperor.” Qin Luan’s face hadn’t stopped beaming since he learned he was a candidate for the Human Emperor.

The little white fox was also elated, licking its paws and commending Qin Luan’s potential to become the Human Emperor.

“Don’t get too excited over this insignificant achievement. I’ve seen all sorts of things when I was with the Human Emperor.” Though Yuan Wuxing confidently stated this, his grin was no smaller than Qin Luan’s.

Song Ying was worried. “I read on the Heavenly Machine about the candidacy of a genuine dragon from the other world who is at the stage of Body Integration Realm. When such a contestant competes against you guys for the Human Emperor candidate, you guys…”

Song Ying didn’t finish her sentence, but everyone understood her implied concern.

Yuan Wuxing, having seen much of the world, believed Song Ying’s worry to be unnecessary: “Don’t worry about that. The candidacy of the Human Emperor is based on wisdom. Regarding natural gifts, the differences among all of us are minuscule and it’s hard to discern who is superior.”

“Although there would be battles among the candidates for the Human Emperor, they won’t happen now. The battles would happen when everyone reached the Body Integration Realm.”

“The top three candidates for the Human Emperor from five hundred years ago, Jiang Li, Bai Hongtu, and Yu Yin, were chosen this way.”

“What if someone breaks through to the Transcendence Tribulation Stage first, and becomes the Human Emperor directly?”

“Umm…”

Yuan Wuxing was at a loss for words.

The sound of Jiang Li broke the silence, “If anyone breaks through to the Transcendence Tribulation Stage, this person must then beat either Yu Yin or Bai Hongtu. If any of these two can be defeated, I would let this person become the Human Emperor directly.”

Yu Yin had national luck supporting him, allowing him to reach the pinnacle of Transcendence Tribulation Stage. Bai Hongtu had even survived a celestial tribulation once. Not to mention a candidate for the Human Emperor, even if the past Human Emperors came, it’s not certain they could win against these two.

Yuan Wuxing suddenly felt that this election for the Human Emperor candidate might be the second most difficult in history.

The most challenging one was the previous round.

“Mr. Jiang?” Everyone looked around for Jiang Li. They thought the person drinking tea by the road looked quite like him.

Jiang Li sighed, “Stop searching, I’m still at the Imperial Palace. I’ve been talking to you through the mark of the candidates for the Human Emperor.”

“Let’s stop here. I’m now going to talk to all the candidates for the Human Emperor.”

…

Similar conversations happened to every candidate for the Human Emperor.

Just as the candidates were reveling in their joy of being chosen for the candidacy by the Earth’s veins, they suddenly found themselves in an unknown space.

Inside the unknown space, Jiang Li stood with hands behind his back, grinning ear-to-ear at them.

“This is a conscious space built by me. It’s a privilege of the Human Emperor to bring candidates in.”

“Firstly, congratulations to all of you on becoming candidates for the Human Emperor. Interestingly, you all have had contact with me. The bonds between us are not shallow.”

Jiang Li swept over the familiar faces one by one. Some of them, he had just met at the Kyushu conference.

Among these people, the one Jiang Li was less familiar with was probably Yu Youxian.

However, their relationship was actually quite close, considering that both of them were members of the Dao Sect.

“As it concerns the throne of the Human Emperor, I won’t show favoritism. Also, don’t be hoping for chances to cozy up to me for favor,”

“Let’s start with a simple competition for the candidates for the Human Emperor to get a feel for things.”

Illusions flickered and after a bout of dizziness, people found themselves by a huge lake once their consciousness returned. Many mages sat by the lake, fishing quietly.

Materials for artifact refining suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Jiang Li’s voice rang in their ears once again.

“This lake is the second largest in Kyushu, teeming with all sorts of fishes and shrimps. Your first test is simple. You must use these materials to make a fishing tool. Whoever catches the most fish with it wins. ”

Having cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage, everyone had some capabilities in artifact refining,

“Additionally, you are not allowed to use your cultivation level and bloodline advantages to directly fish.”

This rule was specifically for Xiaoqing and Ji Kongkong.

Jiang Li turned to his two friends and reassured, “You two saw it. I randomly selected this question from the ones provided by Captain Liu. ”

“No need to prove it. I believe you. Let’s get started.” Bai Hongtu licked his lips, rolled up his sleeves, and strode to a spot not far away. Yu Yin, silent, walked in the opposite direction.
