The West Wing.
The moment Ye Xiaoqin swallowed the Nine-Turn Body Sculpting Pill, he felt as if he were enveloped by a warm cluster of fire.
It traveled down his throat, spreading to his chest, then to his lower abdomen, before surging through his limbs and bones.
He closed his eyes and clenched his jaw.
Did it hurt?
Not really.
But it was incredibly itchy!
An itch that seeped out from the seams of his bones, from the depths of his meridians, from every single cell.
It felt as though something was growing, spreading, and restructuring inside him.
Veins bulged on Ye Xiaoqin's forehead, large beads of sweat rolled down, and the clothes on his back were quickly soaked through.
Yet, he didn't utter a single sound.
This bit of pain and itchiness was much lighter than when his Spirit Bone was ripped out, much lighter than his crawl from the foot of the mountain to the sect gates.
He could endure it.
No, he even felt... it was somewhat comfortable.
The sensation of broken things inside his body being reconnected one by one, the feeling of a dried riverbed being replenished with flowing water, the feeling of a shattered mirror being pieced back together bit by bit.
An unknown amount of time passed.
Ye Xiaoqin suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked down at his hands; the wounds he had scraped open while climbing the mountain had completely healed, leaving not even a scar.
The meridians in his body were restored.
Not just restored.
He could feel that those once-shattered meridians were now more than twice as wide as before, like a narrow country dirt road expanded into a grand official highway.
His Dantian was also repaired.
The walls of his Dantian were more than twice as thick as before, and its capacity had expanded significantly.
Ye Xiaoqin took a deep breath, feeling the spiritual energy enter through his nose and mouth, slowly flowing along his meridians into his Dantian.
Only one thing was a pity.
His Spirit Bone had completely disappeared.
His Spirit Body was entirely gone!
Ye Xiaoqin lowered his head and remained silent for a moment.
Then he raised his head and took a deep breath.
If it's gone, it's gone.
He had already picked his life back up from the brink of death; what else couldn't he let go of?
Just then—
He felt something move inside his body.
It wasn't his meridians, nor his Dantian, nor spiritual energy.
It was something deeper, more primal, something that seemed to slumber at the very bottom of his bloodline.
Ye Xiaoqin's body trembled violently.
A majestic power surged from the depths of his bone marrow, spreading along his skeleton to his limbs and bones.
The feeling was as if something had awakened.
He didn't know what it was.
He assumed the effects of the Nine-Turn Body Sculpting Pill hadn't completely passed, thinking this was a side effect of the pill.
Ye Xiaoqin clenched his fists, feeling the surging power in his palms, and his eyes suddenly grew a bit sore.
Father!
Mother!
Your son is not crippled!
He took a deep breath, rolled out of bed, and fell to his knees with a thud, facing the direction outside the window where Lin Yan was, and heavily kowtowed three times.
He didn't speak, for no words were sufficient to express Ye Xiaoqin's feelings at this moment.
He only silently recited a single sentence in his heart—
To be born but not raised, a severed finger can repay; to be born and raised, a severed head can repay; to not be born but raised, a hundred lifetimes are hard to repay!
Master, your kindness to your disciple, your disciple has engraved in his heart!
In this life, I cannot finish repaying it.
In the next life, I will continue to repay it.

...
In the courtyard.
Lin Yan was lying on his rocking chair basking in the sun, still wondering in his mind when Ye Xiaoqin's 70% loyalty would go up.
Then—
The system notification sounds exploded in his mind like a boiling pot, one after another, like rapid-fire.
Holy crap! It upgraded!
Lin Yan sat bolt upright from the rocking chair with a swish.
This kid Ye Xiaoqin is really awesome!
One pill down, and it directly increased his loyalty by 10%.
Sure enough, disciples still need to be cultivated from a young age!
After all, children are easy to trick... ahem, no, easy to cultivate.
The corners of Lin Yan's mouth curled up wildly, unable to be suppressed.
Two Sect Master trait draw opportunities, two disciple trait draw opportunities, the sect territory expanded to a ten-mile radius, and Outer Sect authority unlocked.
A massive harvest!
Sys, translate for me, what is Outer Sect authority.
[Outer Sect authority means you can recruit outer sect disciples. The initial loyalty requirement is reduced to 20%, and they can enjoy partial privileges of core disciples.]
Initial loyalty over 20% is enough?
Lin Yan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, Does that count towards the sect's population?
[Why wouldn't it?]
Lin Yan felt great.
So this was what Outer Sect authority was all about!
He then took a deep breath and opened the upgraded system panel.

...
Tsk tsk tsk, the scale instantly expanded to 15 people. If I recruit to full capacity, that's 15 years of cultivation power a day!
To be honest, with two disciples—one with the Lunar Dao Body and the other with the Desolate Ancient Holy Body—Lin Yan was feeling a mountain of pressure!
Sys, what is the Cultivation Pavilion?
[Cultivation Pavilion: Based on the sect's spirit vein level, disciples cultivating inside can receive an additional speed bonus!]
[Note: The current sect has no spirit vein, unable to place.]
Lin Yan nodded.
If Qingyun Mountain had a spirit vein, would it have been his turn to take it?
Next, Lin Yan looked at his total of 2 Sect Master trait draw opportunities.
He'd put the disciple traits aside for now; the traits of his two great disciples were already fierce enough.
Sys, draw for me!
Give me something good!
Can I get a trait that can be used outside the sect too!
[Ding! Drawing Sect Master Trait...]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the trait: Shrinking the Ground to an Inch]
[Shrinking the Ground to an Inch: One step covers a hundred miles. Within a hundred miles, you can arrive in an instant! Ignores terrain and obstacles, consumes no spiritual energy, and has no cooldown time!]
Holy mother of god!
Lin Yan absolutely couldn't sit still anymore.
No range limit, no range limit...
In other words, it could also be used outside the sect.
And it's a spatial-type trait!
Within a hundred miles, you can arrive in an instant...
Isn't this just teleportation?
Although Lin Yan didn't know how fast those Golden Core Ancestors or Nascent Soul Old Monsters were, he figured they probably couldn't achieve a hundred miles in a single step!
One mile equals five hundred meters; a hundred miles is fifty thousand meters!
One step covered fifty kilometers.
And there was no cooldown; it could be used continuously.
In other words, if he sprinted with all his might, taking five or six steps a second, he would be moving at two to three hundred thousand meters per second.
What kind of concept was that?
That was one-thousandth the speed of light!
"Excellent!"
Lin Yan was overjoyed, wishing he could run down the mountain right now to test it out.
Although this trait lacked offensive power, it was absolutely a divine life-saving skill.
To be honest, ever since he transmigrated a few days ago, Lin Yan had been laying low on the mountain, feeling incredibly stifled.
After transmigrating to a new world, who wouldn't want to go out and explore?
Even just visiting the entertainment houses to listen to some music would be nice.
But considering he had been steadily gaining two years' worth of cultivation every day, as long as he laid low for half a year or so, he would have more than enough power to protect himself. There was really no need to risk going down the mountain.
However, there just had to be a little loli who got handsy with him every single day.
Lin Yan had been holding back so much that it was agonizing.
But now, things were different. He could finally go down the mountain and take a look around.
"Phew!"
Lin Yan took a deep breath.
"Sys, keep drawing!"
He still had one Sect Master trait left. He wanted to see what other heaven-defying trait he could draw.
[Ding! Drawing Sect Master trait...]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Sect Master trait: Mountain Moving.]
[Mountain Moving: As the name implies, allows the user to move mountains with no weight limit!]
"Great, another trait with no limits."
Lin Yan's eyes grew brighter and brighter as a crazy plan took shape in his mind.
"When the time comes, I'll see who has an abundance of spirit veins and just move a couple over."
"Or, I could just carry Qingyun Mountain with me. That works too!"
He even thought of an even more outrageous maneuver: strolling around while literally carrying Qingyun Mountain.
That way, no matter where he went, he could still use [Guard the Mountain Gate] and [Law of the Spoken Word].
Just thinking about it was quite thrilling!
"It's about time I went down the mountain for a stroll!"
ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan, with his golden finger, is reborn and returns to the day of his wedding to the treacherous woman. Su Qiang comes to steal the bride. Lin Xuan's eyes light up, eager to pledge his loyalty on the spot, but instead, her kiss transfers a glass of drugged wine into his mouth, causing him to pass out... 【Male Protagonist with Single Female Lead】【Yandere Tycoon】【Action-Packed】【True vs. Fake Heir】
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
