As the morning rays of light blessed a kingdom, in the center laid a magnificent colorful Palace. That palace was known throughout the land as the Palace of the Golden Worm. Made entirely from the corpses of hundreds of thousands of rank 5 Gold Worms and another rank 5 beasts.

The cost to build this palace alone would have bankrupted an entire region yet this palace was still built under the rule of an emperor. An emperor whose name brought fear to all who heard it.

Even though the palace was worth so much that only emperors of entire multiple regions were worthy of living in it, strangely the entire building was empty. Not a single servant, noble, or knight could be seen walking around inside the palace walls.

The pristine palace that had been the honor of a whole generation had now been ransacked to the point that even the decorations were taken. Leaving the entire palace bare and left dirty from spilled trash.

Even though the entire palace had been ransacked there existed a hidden room inside the palace where there hid a large golden throne with a large cracked crystal. Sitting right below the throne was a sickly young man whose skin was covered in wounds as he was covered in dry blood.

" Alright, that makes sense. Sigh."

The sickly young man that was covered in wounds and dried blood heaved out a heavy sigh as he stared at the blue window in his eyes.

John Darwin stared at the screen in front of him with unease, he had just reincarnated, and he had to deal with a revolution off the bat.

While John looked at the forced mission, he knew that this revolution had a reason for happening.

That reason is that Sullivan, John's original owner, had just acquired the throne three months ago after his tyrannical father passed away.

Decan Devi was a disciple of an unknown immortal; The intense competition for cultivation resources lead to his rivals poisoning him. He then lost the qualification to attempt to ascend into an immortal. As a result, his teacher cut off all relationships with his father, leaving him to fend for himself in the mortal realm.

Luckily Sullivan's father had stolen a fractured copy of the cultivation manual and rebuilt his cultivation back to the Golden Core. Later he established the kingdom of Emil which spanned tens of thousands of kilometers. Due to his experience in the immortal realm, he ruled the land with cruelty becoming a tyrannical emperor.

When Decan's son was born, he put all his dream of becoming immortal into Sullivan. Causing Sullivan to be a cultivation junkie who only knew how to cultivate but nothing about ruling a kingdom. When the time came to take his place, the thought of leading the country didn't even cross his mind, as to him, the only use of the kingdom was to provide him with cultivation resources.

Due to that thought or lack of it, Emil had no leadership during those months. John's body owner, Sullivan, tried to break into the Immortal realm. He failed, causing his death and John's transmigration.

Using this opportunity, the nobles, merchants, soldiers, and any cultivators and martial artists with the slightest balls decided to take over the falling kingdom.

Starting with taking over the city of Greenland, which is also a barren and snowy place like the one on Earth.

"Great, how am I going to stop an army of cultivators that could kill me with a single glance." John got up from his jade throne while looking at his status window for anything that could help him.

Advice: You used to be a powerhouse. Now you are a cow waiting to be slaughtered! ]

" What kind of useless advice is that? How the hell is that going to help me." John's eyebrows began twitching uncontrollably.

[ Advice: You should figure out what the effects of those Unknown Pills are?]

Soon a new line appeared underneath the previous, giving good advice.

Knowing he didn't have much choice, John reached into his pocket, pulling out a package of pills with no labels and only an image of a Stickman with muscles.

" Labelling was never my strong suit." The integration of John's memory and this Sullivan's had almost entirely fused, making it difficult for John to know which is his personality or the dead Sullivan's.

Dumping the pills into his hand, five different-looking pills poured out. Red, blue, green, white, and black pills had unique golden inscriptions engraved on their surface.

The appearance of these 5 pills filled John with shock.

" Gold rank Five-element Transcention pills, how are they in my possession? I don't have any memory of having them. And if the Sullivan had them, why didn't he use them to help him breakthrough."

The Five-Element Transcention Pills are commonly known mystical pills filled with different rumors and folktales. One of which was If a mortal consumes these pills, they will shed their mortal bodies and turn into Immortals overnight. However, these are no more than rumors that help mortals daydream, as becoming immortal takes more than just some pills.

But that didn't distract from how precious these pills were, as they could vastly increase the chances of gold-rank cultivators breaking into the immortal realm. With John's body talent for cultivation and these pills, it would have been assured that he would have ascended and achieved what his father could not.

Finding it odd that Sullivan wouldn't have used these god pills, John took a closer look to see if he was just mistaken.

" Yeah, these are the Five-Element Transcent Pills, but they look a little weird... oh, I get it they're incomplete." John frowned, seeing the fractured inscriptions on the pills.

In this world, cultivation has 6 grades: No Core realm, Copper Core Realm, Iron Core Realm, Gold Core realm, and Immortal realm. Pills also follow a 5-grade system; Copper, Iron, Silver, Gold, and Immortal being the peak.

Copper realm pills are also treated as failures to cultivators but treasures to mortals. They will taint cultivators' pure bodies resulting in reduced potential when in contact with the inferior energy. But mortals didn't have to worry about getting tainted as their bodies hadn't been strengthened by the world's pure power.

Only Iron and above which have been refined by alchemists have any use to cultivators. However, another category for pills was incompletion; these pills have been successfully formed but for whatever reason have not had their energy refined, causing whoever consumed these pills to die!

" No wonder he didn't bother to eat these pills. If he did, he would have just died an even worse death.'
