It's all for the greater good.

After going through the old turtle's memories, Jiang Hao truly couldn't find any reason for this individual Bai Ye to harm him. This could either be a heavy misunderstanding or a perfect scheme to bring the turtle down.

But being the coward he is and making sure not to offend even the servant disciples, turtle Hao did not seem to have any enemies that would make a lethal move on him.

The mystery of Bai Ye remains.

Even after going through all the memories of the turtle, he did not find any clue who he was, where he was from, or why he targeted him.

As reported by our sources, it was stated that the Turtle has passed away peacefully on his deathbed surrounded by nobody.

*sigh

"Man... poor you.

You didn't even know how you died right?", Jiang Hao asked the turtle.

The old Turtle, now assimilated with the system said in a self-deprecating voice,

[Jiang Hao, no need to rebuke me on my ways any further. Had I not, done what I have done, I would have been dead way earlier]

"Pfft... KAHAHAHAHAHA... bro... pfft.... are you for real?"

Jiang Hao continued to laugh until he was forced to calm down as fatigue was getting to him. He became silent sometime later and continued to think of a way to get himself out of this predicament he found himself in.

There was no point in teasing the turtle anymore.

More accurately the predicament he is facing is because of the turtle, but nothing he says now will make it any better after all. As he could not do any physical activities he mused what he could do right now and started thinking how he was going to survive in this world.

It was evident that he was in a dangerous world. But he was definitely not going to stay in the shack like a turtle. He had to make use of the system as much as he could so that he would not be a poor weakling when it really mattered.

After thinking for a while he finally concluded that the best way to spend his time is to understand the system. As a hermit-type MC, the old turtle definitely did not explore the system to it's absolute limits.

All he knew was that the old system could do was give him air bubbles from spiritual plants. And give him some divine abilities and the appraisal.

He as a creative thinker and a man who finds excitement in his predicament, started to think what he can do to stretch the usage of the system to it's absolute limits.

'The system is not a fate-changing type of treasure from those heavenly son protagonist-type novels.

It is also not one of those annoying judgemental type systems, always calling the host is weak and can't use this and that shit.

So this is a purely support-type system. There is no shop, no attribute panel, or anything of the sort. So it isn't a gamer system either

Let's start with the basic interface again.'

[Name: Jiang Hao]

[Age: 19]

[Cultivation: Early foundation establishment stage]

[Cultivation method: heavenly sound hundred revolutions]

[Supernatural ability: Nine Revolutions Death Substitution, Daily Appraisal]

[Lifeblood: 36/100 (can be cultivated)]

[Cultivation: 41/100 (can be cultivated)]

[Divine ability: 1/3 (cannot be cultivated)]

What intrigued him more than anything was the appraisal ability. Other things are normal to any other person in the Heavenly Note Sect, but he had this ability.

He tried to mentally click on the appraisal ability but nothing happened. He couldn't move his hands anyway, so physically trying to click on it was also an impossibility.

"Hey Turtle, what exactly do you feel about the appraisal ability?"

[Huh? Is it not straightforward? You dared to call me a turtle and went on belittling me, but you do not understand the mechanism of this simple divine ability?]

"In what fucking way is appraisal simple you moron? All other divine abilities give some sort of improvement, but appraisal always saved your turtle ass when it came to those traitors you were always afraid of"

If Turtle Hao still had his body, he would have blushed. But even though stone-headed as he was he also understood Jiang Hao's reasoning and thought about what he understood about the appraisal ability.

[I could surmise that the appraisal ability gives a detailed explanation about the target and gives a solution to a problem, if there is any]

"Hmm... I see.

It says daily appraisal. So I understand it's only one time per day. And you also said that it gives a detailed explanation of the target and solutions to problems.

And also from the memories, I can understand that it does not give random explanations either. I could have done an appraisal for the last 7 days I've been lying here, but it was only today the system finished the assimilation with my soul.

So I have to carefully analyze the problem, not to waste today's appraisal. It's already noon."

Following this train of thought, Jiang Hao couldn't help but imagine if he could appraise specific targets. It only said that the appraisal is only one time a day.

But it didn't say anything about the number of targets.

The area it can appraise at the same time.

Accuracy of the details received and amount of details received.

If we could give it any conditions or maybe ask questions.

"If we can exploit these loopholes it would be better".

After thinking about this for a while, he imagined crossing his fingers and activated his daily appraisal.

<Appraise the poison inside my body and give me an effective solution according to situation>

After a couple of seconds, the result still did not appear in his mind. At this moment, he felt like he had really wasted his one chance for the day. And couldn't help but grimace at the fact that he will have to stay like this again another day.

[Haha, fellow daoist. I told you earlier. Appraisal is just that. If there were such methods to exploit the loopholes, even I would have-]

The turtle abruptly stopped speaking as the answer Jiang Hao wanted suddenly appeared in front of the face.

[Poison inside Jiang Hao:

The poison inside Jiang Hao's body is a potent poison created to directly affect the body's nervous system. It attacks the body's nervous system and spreads itself eating away at the body's life blood energy and spirit qi.

After successfully invading the body's nervous system, the poison will affect the entire system as a whole, thereby attacking the brain with its nerve-corroding characteristic. This will either result in the affected individual dying or entering the state of brain-dead.

The solution for this problem according to the situation is to lie unmoving for 7 days and release urine and bowels out of the body. The more potent the poison the harder the release will be.]

"....."

[...]

Jiang Hao took a deep breath and released as if he were readying himself to enter a life-and-death battle. His resolution is unwavering and his determination is as steady as the mountains.

He moved his eyes to the ceiling, looking as if he had entered the extremely lofty state of enlightenment.

If his usual herb caretaker brothers and sisters were here, they would truly realize that only under constant adversities, can a man undergo tribulations and surpass the limits, breaking the shackles of mortality.

[Don't tell me]

"The hardest choices require the strongest wills"

[No, hear me out. There may be different ways. Let's try to appraise tomorrow]

"A small price to pay for salvation"

[No!!]

"It's.... all for the greater good"

And then it began. The struggle of a mortal, who stood against heaven with his deep unwavering eyes, trying his best.

Even if he has to sacrifice his life.

Even if he has to destroy the world.

Even if he has to go full-on Amber Heard in this bitch.

-THE END-
