Chapter 34 - Golden Wheel Breakthrough
Lou's jade die contained six faces.
Each represented a choice Lou had refused to let probability decide for him.
To reach Golden Wheel Realm, Mason had to roll it once and reject the result.
"That's the breakthrough?" Tasha asked.
Raymond nodded. "Fortune cultivators must stop obeying fortune."
Mason rolled.
The die showed one word.
LEAVE.
The Ledger generated a vision.
Mason could leave Vegas.
Take ten million dollars from hidden Ledger reserves.
Disappear with Tasha and Ivy.
Never fight the Nine Houses again.
It was not fake.
The option was real.
That made it harder.
Mason thought about poverty.
Fear.
Being tired.
Then he thought about the millions of threads feeding the wheels.
He turned the die over.
"No."
The jade cracked.
Gold flooded his meridians.
His Copper and Silver stages collapsed inward, forming a rotating ring of light beneath his heart.

Tasha immediately received +3 Agility.
She ran into a wall testing it.
"Worth it," she said from the floor.
Mason laughed.
Then the sky above Las Vegas split with silent golden lightning.
