Chapter 1

"Huhhh where am I!" He woke up screaming and gasping, sweat flowing from his head.

He looked around, it appeared that he was in some sort of wooden hut? Ren Xiao got up, and looked around. You see, a few moments ago, Ren Xiao had been an average college student living in a small dormitory and reading his favorite light novel "Emperor's Domination" when suddenly a blinding flash caused him to pass out.

Collecting himself, Ren Xiao got up, a blanket falling to the floor. Suddenly, he was greeted by a whole world of pain as his head started spinning and his vision blackened. This continued for a few seconds before he finally collected himself and got up.

He was an orphan with the same name, Ren Xiao, who lived in a small fishing village alongside the banks of Flowing Breeze River, which was located near the Cleaning Incense Sect. That was right, he had reincarnated in the world of Emperor's Domination!

He had pitch black hair and soft brown eyes, his face did not look that bad and could be considered handsome.

"Hahaha! I am completely….. Screwed, well I am going to die, goodbye sweet world, thanks for this chance of reincarnation but I will probably die in a few days" Ren Xiao rambled self-deprecatingly, a gray cloud looming over his head.

"Shut up, who is making the noise at this time?!" A gruff voice sounded from outside, belonging to a tough farmer named Wei Jian, who was his neighbor.

"Sorry!" Ren Xiao said, quieter this time.

"Hmm… Don't reincarnation usually have like a special perk they get or a golden finger?" He paced around his small humble little home.

"Ding!"

"Loading…."

"Hello Host! Welcome to the Great Janitor System, dedicating itself to making the host into the ultimate janitor!"

"Cleaning up dragon turd! No problem, Leaving a mess at a Royal banquet? this godly system shall help you clean up the mess efficiently and as fast as possible!"

At this point, Ren Xiao was already in the deepest pits of despair.

"My apologies that was a joke" The System cheerfully exclaimed, whistling a little tune after that.

Ren Xiao practically spat out blood after hearing this.

"So actually, welcome host to the Alternate Reality Power Bestowal System, or A.R.P.B to be short." The System voice chirped merrily.

"WIth this system you can, after completing certain missions, gain a character card, this card's character could vary, from like a demonic version of Naruto to your gentlemanly Arctic Explorer Dio Brando."

"To simplify it, you can gain and collect cards from a roulette system that can grant you the power of your favorite book and anime characters, well that are from different realities."

"You could get the original character but that would just be boring! Why would you want the normal, bland Gandalf when you could get the mighty Sheriff Gandalf, from a desert like world where Sauron the Bandit King will do anything it takes to blanket the world in anarchy."

"...." What is this? Ren Xiao blankly stared at the glowing screen in front of him.

"Cough, Cough…." The system awkwardly chuckled before everything went silent.

"Yes, a golden finger, right on time, no need to wait around or anything!" He mentally pumped his fist in the air.

Walking outside, Ren Xiao stared up at the gradually rising sun.

With this system, he shall rise to the top! But then again, he might die before it happened so…. Ren Xiao was uncertain about what his future held but he was certain of one thing. If he just stood behind Li Qiye his life was set in stone. Not like being a lapdog or anything, if he just somehow befriended him, which would be quite hard, as in his previous life or existence, though quite social, lacked the talent to make friends, with his mouth, he made more enemies then friends usually, but then again, he usually avoided the people who screamed "I am an overly arrogant young master."

(A/N: Li Qiye is ort of arrogant but he is not an arrogant "young master" which means he is not as obnoxious, still sort of toxic though…)

So the first business in order was to see if he could even cultivate, in order to join the ever so conveniently nearby Cleaning Incense Ancient Sect. Oh wait, there is also the chance that he had already left the sect!

"HELLO!"

Ren Xiao jolted out of his mindless stupor and looked at the screen.

"As of now, Li Qiye is still hibernating in his little cave, it will be only a few months before the arrogant bird will soar through the nine heavens." The system chattered on.

"Do I get some sort of starter pack?" Ren Xiao said mentally, as to not bother his neighbors.

In most system based fanfictions the "protagonist" would receive a starters pack to start their journey to completely destroy the plot.

"Here ya go…."

[Received 1x Starter's Pack]

"Open it..." Ren Xiao muttered under his breath.

[Opening….]

[Gained:]

[1x Random Character Card]

[1x Physic Accumulation: Body Tempering Stage Free Ticket]

[1x Dragon Slayer [Berserk]

A giant sword suddenly impaled itself into the ground besides him. It was a broad long sword with a menacing aura surrounding it.The hilt was covered in black cloth and bloodstains covered the edge, as if someone had used it to slice someone in half.

"This is good and all, I mean the free ticket thing, if it is what I think it is, can boost my cultivation level all the way up to that realm which would actually help me hold the sword, but I have zero experience with wielding a blade…" Ren Xiao inspected the blade carefully, almost afraid to touch it.

"Well, who knows, you might get lucky on your first card and gain a swordsman or something!" The system cheerfully jabbered.

"By the way, this helpful system has adjusted the levels of the characters and other items to the level of this universe for the most part, so the sword will not break instantly, in fact it is probably on par with any good quality weapon in this world!" The system exclaimed like it was some sort of salesman.

First he should draw the random character card, which he could assume, from the system's very descriptive explanation, allowing the user to harness the power of an anime or novel character from another reality.

"System, use the Random Character Card!" Ren Xiao thought in his head.

[Using]

[Please standby]

[Congratulations, you gained Hoshigaki Kisame (Bijuu Zombie Version)]

Huh? What is that supposed to mean? Ren Xiao was confused.

"System, is there a explanation as too what this character can do, I know he is the sharkboy from the Akatsuki but "Zombie Bijuu Version" what is that?" Ren Xiao yawned as it seemed his predecessor, who had oh so kindly been possessed by him seemed to have been lost in thought for the good part of the night without an inch of sleep.

[Showing description….]

[Hoshigaki Kisame (Zombie Bijuu Version)]

---------------------------------------------------------

"Well, well well, if it ain't the little Green Beast of Konoha, come here and let me tear you to shreds!" - Hoshigaki Kisame to Might Guy and Sakumo Hatake before their battle

The Hoshigaki Kisame of this reality died when fighting Isobu, three tails, but right before he died, Samehada managed to consume a piece of three tails flesh which forcefully bonded itself to Kisame and resurrecting them, creating an even scarier being.

(A/N: In that reality, Sakumo had survived and went on to become the fifth Hokage.)

[Skills:]

[Grandmaster Blade Proficiency]

[Samehada Manifestation]

[Water Release]

[Shark kekkei genkai related abilities]

[Zombie Shark Bijuu Transformation]

[Bijuu Dama]

[...More]

Ren Xiao was excited. The first character he had received not only was conveniently a swordsman but also was a capable ninja. A former member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist and a member of the Akatsuki, Kisame was a strong one.

Ren Xiao thought for a moment. "System, how do you equip the card?"

The system paused for a while before speaking as if it was common sense. "Just say equip card…."

"Equip card" Ren Xiao exclaimed in excitement.

The System quickly added on. "By the way, as of now you can only have three character card slots and you can gain more over time by doing random things, same with actually gaining the cards and such, which come in the form of gacha tickets."

What is with the info dump right now? Ren Xiao was speechless. Suddenly, he felt it, a weird sensation creeping throughout his body. Suddenly information crept into his head, detailing the many ways to wield and swing a sword, Knowledge of a assortment of jutsu flashed through his memories along with an assortment of other information.

Pain coursed through Ren Xiao's body and he felt as if his body had been run over by a truck repeatedly, not that he had ever experienced that, the closest thing might be the time a child ran him over with a bicycle. Anyway, he gritted his teeth, barely keeping himself from screaming. After what seemed to be a few hours, it stopped and he managed to get up. No impurities or whatever you could normally find in wuxia novels could be found on his body but he was practically drenched in sweat.

Staggering up he got up and removed his robes, revealing his full body. It looked tough and pristine, full of strong compressed muscles, a contrast of the before, slightly less muscular body, as the previous inhabitant also had to work for a living, as he was an orphan.

Wait, his skin was sort of pale, and an extreme light tinge of blue. Crap. When he equipped the card, did he actually turn into the sharkboy? Running outside, as the previous owner did not have the luxury to afford a mirror, he dashed over across the long lazily dancing grass to the side of a pond, were his other neighbor, Zhou Wei kept his fish. Looking down in the water, he saw that his face was not covered in gills and his eyes were not yellow.

Sighing in relief, he decided that it was time for a soak, he was sweaty and stinky from the transformation, looking up, the morning had almost arrived which meant his fellow neighbors were starting to get up.

Against his better judgement, he stripped off his clothes and jumped into the pond. The water was quite cold but, having the abilities of a shark helped greatly and it felt quite comfortable.

After a few minutes, he jumped out of the pool and rushed back into his house to get some new clothes, before contemplating what his neighbors would think if they walked in and saw a huge sword impaled on the floor of his hut.

Ren Xiao pondered before saying. "System, is there an inventory?"

"Yes sir~" The system chirped in its obnoxious cheerful voice.

"In case you were wondering, just say inventory!" The system exclaimed in an overly enthusiastic way.

Saying inventory in his head as he got dressed, the sword disappeared and reappeared in an inventory slot, on the screen in front of him. Stretching his arms, he left the house and greeted his groggy neighbors.

"Hello!" He waved to his neighbors cheerfully.
