One Wish to Own the World

"I wish to have the highest intelligence possible, an intelligence that would allow me to perceive and thoroughly understand everything I see, even if superficially and only once, to the fullest, including strong points, weak points, and how to overcome them." Due to a mistake made by God, Ken is born with every type of perfect memory, but without anything else - he is weak, sickly, stupid, and unwanted. However, there was a saving grace - he made a friend, Leo. Leo would talk to him about hypothetical situations like what to say in case a genie granted him one wish. When Ken dies and God offers him one wish for his next life as compensation for his previous mistake, Ken simply recites Leo's words and is sent to the cultivation world. There, he slowly learns that he is the only one he can trust. Armed with the special remaining Godly Qi from his reincarnation and with the ability to learn and improve techniques and manuals easily, even creating his own original cultivation path, he cultivates with the goal of standing at the top of the world, even if it takes leaving his moral code behind. Follow Ken in his journey as he lie, blackmail, murder, rob, poison, and manipulate others to achieve his goals! ----- DISCLAIMER: The god in the story is completely random and made up, and is not the particular god of any religion existing today in the real world.

Chapter 261 – Assassination Attempt

'I can't channel my Qi!' Toby realized a moment before his strike connected. The dagger hit something solid instead of soft skin and failed to pierce through it, not leaving even a single graze on Ken's skin.

"ASSASSIN!" Ken yelled loudly at the same time, and Max and Jake acted immediately. They struck the laying man with their swords without holding back, aware of his greater strength as a sixth-stage cultivator. Their goal was not to win, but to buy time for Ken to retreat and for others to help them.

'How can that be?!" The assassin's shock was easy to understand, as not many things could stop a full-force swing from someone at his stage. But that only applied to those who could control their powers.

He noticed something peculiar just then. Ken's positioning made his robes block the view from those around them, and one could only see that Toby's hand was stretched in the direction of Ken's chest, but not see the place where the chest and the dagger met.
