I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything

“Young man, I can tell from your skeletal structure that you have an extremely rare talent. You must be a one in a million prodigy in the martial arts. Now that the Blue Planet has ascended, mutant beasts are ravaging our homes, and foreign species are invading our land, our people are in grave danger. Here, I have an [Infinite Demon God Physique Training Method], I’ll give it to you for just two dollars. You shall be entrusted with the mission of maintaining world peace.” Xu Lingyun was touched. He said, “I can’t believe that you can actually see my true potential. Here’s four dollars, no need to give me change.” The scammer took the money, left him a fake secret training manual, and left feeling content. Xu Lingyun brought the secret manual home. He slapped the cover of the book. Instantly, the aged, tattered book started emanating a magnificent array of lights. An ancient and powerful aura filled the air, dominating the stars and piercing through the age. A fake? Oh please, in front of me, there is no such thing as “description may not match the actual item, please see the actual item”.

Tower of Origin: I Evolve All Rewards

When the ancient Towers descended, humanity’s fate was rewritten. Those who entered could gain power, wealth, and authority beyond imagination. But only a rare few awakened true talents capable of changing their destiny. Qin Yuheng, heir of a fallen ancient family, stood before the Awakening Stone and received the result everyone feared. Talentless. To the world, his path had ended before it even began. But hidden from every eye, another power awakened within him — a forbidden ability that could evolve anything the Tower rewarded. Weak fruits became heaven-defying treasures. Ordinary chests became ancient inheritances. Low-level rewards became stepping stones toward absolute power. Behind him stood a family burdened by forgotten glory, sealed wounds, and enemies waiting in the shadows. Before him rose the endless Tower of Origin. And Qin Yuheng would not merely climb it. He would evolve every reward, break every limit, and uncover the truth buried at the peak of the heavens.

Stories cool and all but the fact you removed some lf the things that make translations annoying to read actually makes this 10x better. Also, the premise of a police mc is super cool in a gotham setting. This is pretty enjoyable so far.

I think you missed an opportunity to make a businessman character like lex luttor, instead of some criminal in Gotham, with all the technology in the system you could create a company and try to turn Gotham into Night City (I thought this now but Gotham is perfect for that). After all, let's agree that with this system the mc has a very weak power limit compared to DC characters.

Surprisingly, it is not badly written, but it would have been better to work more on the plot, the origin of the mc is confusing, although he appears out of nowhere, he already has a job and there is no problem with his origin, but you don't read these types of stories thinking about the plot, since there is none.
