[Shen Family 101 has officially begun.]
[The first stage: The Earth-rank external martial art, Stellar Transformation Profound Art.]
[Fifty-one people will be eliminated in this stage.]
[This means that if you want to advance and receive the Heaven-rank cultivation method reward, you must be among the first fifty to reach the entry level of the Stellar Transformation Profound Art.]
[The 101 of you have been taken to 101 different minor planets.]
[There are people to take care of your daily needs and meals; you only need to focus on practicing and comprehending.]
[Now, no one will come to guide you. Separating you all is also to prevent mutual discussion.]
[It all depends on your own comprehension and abilities.]
[In addition to the fixed supply of pills, crystal stones, and medicinal baths, the Shen family also allows you to request additional resources.]
[Such as crystal stones, spiritual plants, spiritual artifacts, array formations, talismans, and so on.]
[If you have the ability to enhance your comprehension through external items, the Shen family will grant your requests.]
[However, there is a limit to the resources you can request. It is impossible for them to move the entire Shen family warehouse to you.]
["Please forge an Immortal Artifact for me."]
[You took out the original blueprint of the Myriad Soul Banner.]
[Free resources, it would be a waste not to take them!]
[On your planet, the Shen family martial guard assigned to stand by your side is a young woman in her twenties named Shen Yufeng.]
[Looking at this blueprint, she revealed the exact same expression as the artifact refiners of Divine Weapon City back in the day.]
["What is this?"]
["The Dao Comprehension Banner. For enhancing comprehension, there is none better."]
["I can't give you an Immortal Artifact."]
["Does it exceed the extra resource limit for this round?"]
["Do you think Immortal Artifacts are that easy to forge? Stop joking..."]
["Then make it Heaven-rank. A grand clan like the Shen family wouldn't be unable to forge even a Heaven-rank spiritual artifact, right?"]
["We can try a Heaven-rank one, but this single spiritual artifact will exhaust all your extra resource supplies for this round, and there is only one chance to forge it. Are you sure?"]
["I'm sure."]
[The Myriad Soul Banner was a bit happy.]
["You're a real bro! The Shen family's craftsmanship is excellent, and since it's a high-quality replica of my true body, if successful, I'll be able to unleash thirty percent of my peak power!"]
[You teased.]
["Why only thirty percent?"]
["Even thirty percent requires me to perform well! Did you think the gap between an Immortal Artifact and a Heaven-rank spiritual artifact is only a little over three times? The difference is massive!"]
[Although there were no more extra resources, the cultivation-enhancing pills, a large number of crystal stones, and the physique-improving medicinal bath once every three days were still provided.]
[Bad News from the Martial Artist Circle began to take effect. It provided you with double the medicinal efficacy without accumulating any pill toxins!]
[After this kind of high-frequency pill-fueled cultivation, other contestants needed regular treatments to expel pill toxins.]
[You simply ignored this and told the organizers to exchange all the resources meant for detoxification into pills that enhance cultivation!]
[Although the Shen family didn't understand your request, they respected it.]
[After all, you were the one who wanted to do this. If you died from eating too many pills, it had nothing to do with them.]
[You felt your cultivation speed increasing as if you were riding a rocket!]
There was a minor episode while cultivating the Stellar Transformation Profound Art.
The proficiency panel couldn't recognize it.
Chen Yi deduced that, just like the True Sun Formula, it recognized bloodlines.
So when the option to adjust traits appeared, he equipped Hard Work Must Yield Rewards.
Then he just had to rely on proficiency, and it wouldn't be a problem even if he unequipped Hard Work Must Yield Rewards later.
"Green traits also have their indispensable uses! Sure enough, there are no trash martial souls, only trash soul masters!"
[Year 21, 39 years old.]
[Glancing at the panel, you saw that you only needed to practice the motions 100 times for your Stellar Transformation Profound Art to reach the entry level.]
["That clan head seemed to have mentioned that if we advance to the next round, the supply of these auxiliary cultivation resources will be suspended until the next round begins..."]
[You thought of a good idea.]
[Stall for the last place!]
[On the planet where each contestant is located, there is a glowing stone stele that displays names, indicating who has passed the test for this stage.]
[You just needed to train your proficiency up to 99 times, wait until over forty names appeared, and then practice for the last time. Once you reached the entry level, you just had to inform the deacon in charge of you.]
[Over the past year, not a single person had reached the entry level.]
[It is very difficult to comprehend an Earth-rank cultivation method entirely on one's own.]
[Back then, it took you and the Old Monk many years to comprehend and learn the Star-Shattering Wave Finger.]
[No matter.]
[You wished your competitors would be even slower.]
[This way, you could continue to enjoy the massive cultivation resources provided by the Shen family.]
[Year 22, 40 years old.]
[Martial Dao realm increased to the Sixth Layer of the Golden Body.]
[Year 23, 41 years old.]
[Someone successfully reached the entry level, but it was only a few people.]
[This year, the Shen family delivered your custom-made Dao Comprehension Banner.]
[That artifact refining master also secretly followed along; he wanted to see exactly how you were going to use this thing.]
[Although the artifact refiners of the Star Domain are not restricted by the Five Domains Divine Weapon Pavilion, the Shen family also has rules against forging evil artifacts.]
[Fortunately, you were prepared. You didn't let the artifact spirit of the Myriad Soul Banner enter it; instead, you just placed the banner beside you every day to block the sun.]
[It looked as if you were comprehending the Dao under the banner.]
["Is it really a Dao Comprehension Banner?"]
[During forging, an artifact refiner should theoretically be crystal clear about the internal structure of the spiritual artifact.]
[Whether it was the Myriad Soul Banner or not, wouldn't the person who created it know?]
[However, the Myriad Soul Banner was just too cunning.]
[Feigning one thing while secretly doing another!]
[The blueprint this old scoundrel gave was less a spiritual artifact blueprint and more a parts blueprint.]
[When the artifact spirit of the Myriad Soul Banner entered, it would reassemble the internal structure, turning this Heaven-rank banner-shaped spiritual artifact into a low-end version of the Myriad Soul Banner.]
[Before the reassembly, you could call this banner whatever you wanted, because apart from possessing the quality of a Heaven-rank spiritual artifact, it had absolutely no functions.]
[The artifact refiner only forged it according to the blueprint; if it came out having no functions, that was none of his business.]
[Year 24, 42 years old.]
[Martial Dao realm increased to the Seventh Layer of the Golden Body.]
[Even though your realm was getting higher and higher, your speed of improvement was faster than when you were at the first or second layer. You were extremely happy.]
["Thank goodness I was clever enough to impersonate a Shen family member, and thankfully I didn't succeed in running away back then. Everything I get is mine, who cares what conspiracy they have!"]
"Since that's the case, I won't need the trait for verifying identities for now. There's no need to verify this bunch from the Shen family either; they are all absolute wolves."
[Year 25, 43 years old.]
[Extracting trait...]
[Extraction successful!]
["Duang~~" (White Common): Your hair volume is astonishing, very black, very shiny, and very soft. Absolutely no special effects added, and you will never go bald, duang~]
[Adjust traits?]
[Yes/No]
[You used Tomato Senior User to replace The Only True Seer in the Game.]
[Over these years, you have been both advancing your cultivation and comprehending deeper sword Dao.]
In your spare time, you also leveled up the proficiency of your commonly used cultivation methods one by one.
Your Earth-rank cultivation methods are now uniformly at the Consummate stage.
Your commonly used high-rank martial arts have all reached the Peak of Perfection.
Your cultivation speed has increased once again, and your actual combat ability has vastly improved.
Coupled with your Sword Dao, which is now ready for actual combat.
Now, when facing an ordinary Spirit Sea realm expert, you can hold your own even without relying on system traits to boost your combat power.
If you were to use the Myriad Soul Banner and the Nine Provinces Cauldron, it would be even more terrifying. Even a Soul Condensation realm expert without an Immortal Artifact would have to take you seriously.
"The cultivation base that ordinary people build up step by step is extremely hollow and crumbles at the first blow in actual combat! However, the combat power I've obtained through my cheats and by intercepting various fortuitous encounters is far more solid and robust!"
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
