System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Longxia, Tangwushan, Feixian Temple.

at dusk.

"Wasn't it a self-destruction?"

"Have I traveled through time?"

Chen Xuan was completely bewildered by the youthful face he saw in the mirror.

In his past life, Chen Xuan witnessed someone flying on a sword while camping in the deep mountains. The door to a new world opened up for him, and he became obsessed with metaphysics. However, he lacked the necessary academic qualifications to enter a prestigious sect.

Without a master, he taught himself fortune telling. After achieving some success, he became arrogant and recklessly practiced Qi cultivation, attempting to build a foundation. In the end, he went wrong and self-destructed.

I just didn't expect that I could travel through time after self-destructing.

After merging with the original body's memories, Chen Xuan could only smile bitterly.

"In my past life, no matter how hard I tried, I was unable to join the orthodox lineage."

"This life is much better. Not only did I inherit the Taoist temple at the beginning, but I'm also an 18-year-old Taoist priest."

In my memory, the young Taoist priest was picked up and raised by the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest passed away three years ago, and the young Taoist priest then took over the Feixian Temple, where he made a living by worshipping the Taoist patriarch and farming.

After sighing, Chen Xuan practiced the "Eight Steps Vajra Skill".

Chen Xuan was pleasantly surprised after it was over.

Because the aptitude of this body is several times better than that of his previous life.

"With my talent combined with the constitution of this body, perhaps I will be able to glimpse the legendary sword control technique in this lifetime?"

Chen Xuan quickly calmed down and turned to look at the Flying Immortal Temple.

The statue of the Taoist patriarch in the main hall is full of cracks, most of the paint has faded, and the surrounding environment is dilapidated and desolate...

Overall, the Taoist temple was as dilapidated as the clothes he was wearing.

Although it's called a Taoist temple, it's more like a place where beggars can stay.

Despite the harsh conditions, Chen Xuan was prepared to rebuild the structure.

The Fate-Defying System has awakened!

[Host notification: The newbie gift pack and control panel are now available.]

[Congratulations, host! Your feng shui and fortune-telling skills have reached the pinnacle. From now on, you will not be punished for revealing heavenly secrets!]

"system?"

"The most skilled geomancers and fortune tellers, even if they reveal heavenly secrets, will not be punished by the heavens."

Chen Xuan was shocked and found it unbelievable.

Revealing heavenly secrets without incurring divine punishment is too defying the heavens for fortune tellers.

He was no stranger to the novel system, having read many novels during his student days.

Chen Xuan asked curiously in a low voice, "The panel."

A virtual page appeared before my eyes.

[Host]: Chen Xuan (Taoist name: Beiming)

Age: 18

[Cultivation]: None

[Technique]: None

[Dharma implements]: None

[Hint and Requirements]: The host can complete at least three tasks per day by helping others 'defy fate'. Upon completion, the host will receive rewards such as cultivation techniques, magic weapons, cultivation level, Taoist cultivation, and lifespan.

"Helping people defy fate and change their destiny? Minimum three times a day?"

That sounds pretty impressive.

Actually, it wasn't difficult for Chen Xuan.

That's fortune telling and changing your luck.

Feng shui and fortune telling were the only skills he could be proud of, which he had been obsessed with studying in his previous life.

However, it's a long process to go down the mountain and make a name for yourself again through your own abilities.

Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he immediately rushed back to his little house.

In his memory, among the old Taoist's belongings was a smartphone, which he brought back after going down the mountain to do feng shui for a wealthy man. Because the old Taoist never allowed the original owner to play with it, Chen Xuan almost forgot about it after inheriting the original owner's memories.

Chen Xuan found his phone, charged it, and turned it on.

They discovered that not only did they have a large amount of phone credit, but they also had 6G network access.

After downloading several apps, including Douyin, Chen Xuan started his first live stream.

The hottest topics in live streaming are traditional Chinese culture, feng shui, and metaphysics...

The room name is: 【Live Fortune Telling, 3,000 Yuan Fee, Dare to Come?】

In his previous life, a fortune telling session for a wealthy person would cost tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan, so three thousand was already Chen Xuan's minimum fee.

With everything ready, Chen Xuan plopped down on the Flying Immortal Stone in front of the White Cloud Temple and waited quietly.

Soon, Douyin pushed Chen Xuan's live stream to some users who had browsed traditional Chinese culture, metaphysics, fortune telling, etc.

[Live-stream fortune telling? This is what big data is pushing to me today?]

[Bro, if you're going to scam people, at least present yourself properly. You're just a stinking beggar, haha!]

A cat obsessed with looks: [Wow, even though his clothes are a bit ripped, this guy is actually quite clean and handsome.]

Long Xia lost first; [Three thousand for fortune telling? Why don't you just rob someone?]

[Don't talk nonsense, upstairs. Although it's a bit tattered, he is indeed wearing a Taoist robe.]

[Nine Army Vanguard: I'm going to tag Brother Jiu later, he'll definitely be interested in your live stream, hahaha!]

[Gossipmonger: Ninth Brother, the exposé of fake news and charlatans? This kid's finished the moment he arrives.]

[Exactly, these days, people just find a few run-down houses to pretend to be Taoist temples just to ride the wave of popularity, and they dare to pretend to be masters of traditional Chinese culture just by starting a live stream?]

[That's true. Judging from his face, he looks only seventeen or eighteen years old. Even if he were a real Taoist disciple, he wouldn't dare to tell fortunes at that age, let alone do a live stream of fortune telling.]

Chen Xuan paid no attention to the doubts and ridicule in the live stream chat.

He said in a clear voice, "Online fortune telling, those who need it can apply to connect via voice chat, but you need to pay three thousand yuan for the divination first."

Upon hearing this, almost everyone except the girls who had previously been lusting after Chen Xuan's appearance scoffed and left the live stream.

[Drooling: Little Taoist brother, you're good at live streaming, now everyone's gone.] Several girls were still sending comments.

Chen Xuan smiled but didn't say anything.

He had already consulted a fortune teller before the broadcast, so he wasn't worried at all.

Half an hour passed quickly.

Dozens of viewers clicked in during that time.

Most of them left cursing, and a few tried to get something for free, but Chen Xuan refused them on the spot.

There are currently 6 people in the live stream, all of them girls, and they are also the ones posting the comments in the chat, but the content they are talking about has nothing to do with fortune telling.

Just as several female drivers were trying to get Chen Xuan's phone number.

Tens of thousands of people suddenly flooded into Chen Xuan's live stream room.

[Jiujiajun Mountain Chicken] enters the live stream room.

[Nine Army Gods and Gods] Enter the live stream room.

[Wu Shen Yin Jiu] enters the live stream room (original character: Yin Jiu Hua)

……

[Ninth Brother is awesome! He encountered a fake fortune teller online right after starting his broadcast. This is going to be interesting!]

[Hehe, yesterday a girl who was playing calculus and trying to scam gifts got completely shut down by Brother Jiu, and then apologized and ended the stream. I had a really good time.]

[Whose fault is it? That girl's answers to the card draws from the clip were all ambiguous. Who else should Brother Jiu criticize if not her?]

Look at this live stream title, it's interesting: "Live fortune telling, 3,000 yuan for a reading?"

[They don't want gifts anymore, they just want money. Three thousand should be enough for tea, right?]

Three thousand? That's my monthly salary! Does he think three thousand grows on trees?

[Putting aside whether he's a Taoist priest or not, this young man is quite handsome. Judging from the background, he seems to be in a Taoist temple. Could he be a real Taoist master?]

[Ha... a master? Real masters do live streams; they're all supported by the super-rich.]

These days, aren't there plenty of people who just need a connections, buy an outfit online, and start a live stream to fleece people?

[Exactly, I signed up for a Tai Chi class, and it turns out the instructor used to be a foot massage therapist.]

……

The live stream chat was flooded with comments.

Aside from a few girls praising Chen Xuan's outstanding appearance, the rest were all sarcastic and skeptical.

At this moment, Chen Xuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed, also opened them. He was not surprised to see that the live stream had tens of thousands of viewers.

Chen Xuan spoke calmly to the live stream audience, “Live fortune telling, the fee is three thousand, no credit. Those who need it can connect via live stream.”

After saying that, Chen Xuan took out the payment code he had hand-carved twenty minutes earlier and showed it to the live stream audience.

This move only made the live stream chat even more heckling.

Haha, is this guy trying to be funny?

[The payment code has been exposed?]

【Brother Jiu, transfer the money to him and put him on the microphone. The payment code is registered with his real name. He won't be able to run away even if he wants to!】
