Within a dense jungle, right in front of a gully, Cyrus's figure appeared in his Violent Black Sword disguise.
With curiosity, he looked around and found himself in the middle of a tropical jungle. There wasn't even a hint that it was artificially made. The only difference was the Qi density of this place was quite higher than the outside world.
Cyrus then looked at the sky and found that there wasn't any sun or stars or even moor and only a bright blue sky with so clouds.
'How interesting. This looked exactly like a secret realm, but just as the system told , I didn't feel any kind of natural restraint, unlike a secret realm. Only a god could create sothing like this, but even a god can't create a dinsion like the Skeleton Grotto…' He thought while scrutinizing the entire environnt.
One of his purposed for entering here was to analyze the fully ford dinsion more accurately since he doesn't get the chance to do it in the slum districts.
However, his focus was broken when the System's unexpected voice rang.
_____
[A new Lust Sword Quest is available!]

[Lust Sword Quest: 1 (New)]
_____
"What if I can get Lust Sword Quest despite my Lust Sword in unavailable?" He asked in bewildernt.
"[Lust Sword is part of User not so separate entity.]"
"So, you do know how to reply, huh." He sneered as he was getting ignored by the system lately, which was quite frustrating soti since he had many theories about the LXP, which could've been easily solved if the system cooperated. Still, it refused to answer even one of his questions.
However, he always brushes it off when he thinks it is 'technique,' so it has limited intelligence. But it was frustrating, nevertheless.
Just like now, no further reply was given, which Cyrus was expecting, so he opened the new Lust Sword Quest without wasting his breath.
The last quest brings him unexpected rewards and information, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't elated about this quest, especially when he knew he could complete it easily.

______
"Wait, you can do that?" Cyrus was baffled by this mission as it wasn't about taking over the dinsion or destroying it at all, which he was actually hoping for since he was here to do the exact thing.
But it turned out the system wanted him to feed this entire dinsion to the Origin Lust Sword Dinsion Seed!
Getting no answer from the system again, he changed his question, "Just tell at least this, if I sow the Origin Lust Sword Dinsion Seed in silver or even golden rank dinsion, will it result in my dinsion having the sa rank as well?"
Cyrus wasn't a fool as he could easily tell that this was so kind of special trait of the Origin Lust Sword Dinsion Seed, which the system didn't tell him before, probably because of so strange condition attached to it.
However, now that this trait was finally revealed, he wanted to know if this was limited to just bronze rank or not. Because if it isn't, then Cyrus would never waste this chance on a re bronze rank dinsion. Instead, he will go for at least platinum or even dark platinum rank dinsions.
This will also change the entire sche he was hatching all this ti.
"[User should see the entire quest before you ask aningless questions.]"
"There's more?" Cyrus frowned as he only saw up to the rewards before he started asking questions since there wasn't anything below the last ti.
But when he looked down again, he was surprised to find two new sections which weren't there before last ti, in a hurry he overlooked them!

3. Process of the Lust Sword Underworld Form (Initial) forging instantly complete!
-Quest Ti: 1 Day
-Quest Failure Punishnt: The Rewards will be lost Forever!
_____
"The rewards will be lost forever? So, it's a one-ti thing? But why the hell are you giving just one day? Do you think of as so kind of lackey just because I follow your instructions?" Cyrus was enraged by that quest ti, not to ntion the punishnt was sothing he never expected.
"[System has its own protocols, and all the quests are given according to the User's capabilities. As for Punishnt, since there's a reward, there should be punishnt as well. The first Lust Sword Quest was a one-ti thing.]"
"You wretched re technique dare to inflict punishnt on ?!" Cyrus felt his blood boil for the first ti in a long ti as he was completely livid, and his icy cold aura covered the entire surrounding around him.
He was completely enraged by the system this ti around, not to ntion exasperated. Regardless, he was soone who got angry not easily and had a very good temper.
But there was a limit, his bottom line, which no one should try to cross. However, the system was doing it again and again by ignoring him, its master, and now it even wanted to inflict punishnt on him if he did not follow its instructions.
Since the punishnt got involved, it ant the system was the one in control, not Cyrus, which was absurd from Cyrus's point of view and unacceptable.
He was the one who was cultivating it, not the other way around, and he would never be going to accept becoming a re 'technique' lackey, especially with his Godly pride.
Cyrus could accept a mutual relationship with his technique and always has till now, but he would rather be a mortal than be soone else dog, not to ntion the dog of his own cultivation technique.
What is the point of his rebirth if he can't even control his own path? Is there a point in striving to be the greatest when you are following the orders of soone else because you're afraid of punishnt?
That's why Cyrus instantly got furious when the system tried to manipulate his action by placing a ti limit and punishnt on him.
"If you know what's better for both of us, then I want you to correct your fucking protocols right now, or you should be able to tell that what I'll do if you don't. I have had enough of your little gas." He coldly stated word by word with emotionless yet ruthless eyes.
This is where he will draw the line, and he wasn't joking right now. He was gratified by the unique benefits the system brought him, but he was not a blind idiot who didn't ask questions or didn't know how things worked.
When Cyrus didn't receive any answer from the system, his lips curled up in a cruel smile, "Is that so? Do you think I'm bluffing? Let's see if you found another User who can ever activate you again!"
Suddenly Cyrus's aura skyrocketed before it suddenly turned chaotic, and almost instantly, a pitch-black smock suddenly started to rise from his body which gave off an extrely vile and nefarious aura.
The next mont, the clothes on his body started to wilt even the treasure sword on his back started to rot, including the mask on his face. His eyes turned pitch black, and the next mont, his pristine skin suddenly started to turn black, and cracks began to appear on his body before blood gushed out.
But that cruel smile on his face didn't fade at all as more and more cracks started to erge on his body and face, even his hair starting to fall off.
He opened his devil-like mouth, and eerier words ca out, and with every word, his body started to rot and break,
"Yin Yang Manipulation: Death…"
However, right at this mont, before he could complete his suicidal spell, the system's voice finally rang, and it rang a few tis.
______
[One-ti System Protocol change request has been successfully approved by the User Cyrus Lust!]
[The Punisher Function for motivation is deed useless by the User!]
[The User has seen the true face of the world and knows the consequences of being the weakest, and despite having talent User knows the value of working hard!]
[The Punishnt and Ti functions will now be exempt from the system protocol!]
[There will be no further changes from this mont forth in the system protocols, or it will result in System's failure and User's death!]
______
Cyrus stopped speaking before all that black nefarious aura suddenly vanished, but Cyrus looked in a terrible wrench shape as he appeared almost on the verge of death.
But that prideful smile filled with undying arrogance was still plastered on his face.
He scoffed with his thoughts, "Never step on my pride, or I'll do anything to step all over you!"
