[Welcome!]

Welcome?

Fang Zhaoge blanked out. He stared at the panel motionlessly. It wasn't until a few minutes later that he snapped out.

"Welcome my ass!"

Everything he saw was foreign. He couldn't understand why he was in a house with a wooden interior. Even the outside seems so strange.

This was clearly a different world!

His eyes turned strange when he compiled it with this panel. This combination feels so damn familiar.

"Isn't this transmigration?"

"Transmigration…"

"...Wait! I have been transmigrated!"

Fang Zhaoge feels like a dumb person. What he said clearly makes sense, definitely in line with his own logic.

But why did he feel this slight repulsion towards his own assumption?

[Detected there's enough energy to instigate a simulation. Do you wish to proceed?]

"F*ck! It is really a f*cking transmigration with a system!"

Soon, any doubt in him dissipated. His eyes brightened as he stared at the panel, and his body trembled, wanting to let it out.

In the end, he really couldn't hold back at all.

After a few minutes of screaming and jumping in excitement, Fang Zhaoge soon turned calm as his black eyes calculatingly looked at the window, looking thoughtful.

"My memory told me that this world was a world full of immortals. A familiar plot of those cultivation novels. It's just that, the world is exceptionally cruel and ruthless. An innocent person could easily get implicated by standing between two immortals…"

From his initial excitement to his current gloominess. Fang Zhaoge sighed heftily. He truly felt grateful to have this panel.

"Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core…"

Fang Zhaoge was enthralled. Even a Golden Core expert could easily destroy a town in this world. Just imagine what sort of havoc would happen if an evil person achieved this realm?

Fang Zhaoge was already too familiar with this plot. Cultivation is just too brutal.

However, the thought of having this system turned his gloominess into excitement. It was despairing if he was just a mortal, but everything changed if he could become a powerful expert.

Fang Zhaoge narrowed his eyes as he shouted, "Proceed!"

[Life stimulation has begun…]

[16 years old. You were awakened. You were initially confused, but soon figured out what happened with your experience. You saw a scripture on the table beside the bed and realized it was a cultivation technique. You tried to practice it but soon realized that you were talentless. You despaired.]

[You saw a pouch filled with silvers beside the scripture and decided to go out to check the world. You naively showed the pouch in your hand as it rang. Soon, a group of bandits greedily looked at the pouch and jumped on you. You peed your pants in fear.]

[They decided to toy with you, making you experience worse than death. Finally, they throw you out into the forest. A group of demonic beasts feast on you slowly as you wail in despair with your stick as a dessert.]

[You died.]

"The f*ck you mean by toyed to death?! And why the f*ck a bunch of men toyed me to death?!"

Fang Zhaoge's expressions constantly changed as he read through the panels. In the end, he was so furious he kicked the wooden floor until his feet turned red.

He was about to go all out when an additional message appeared below the panel.

[Simulation completed. Please select one of the rewards below:]

[1. Qualities (Available)]

[2. Attribute Points]

[3. Life Memories]

[Qualities: Additional descriptions that could improve your aspects. The colours available: White (10%), Green (1%), Blue (0.1%). Additional colours will be added as you get stronger.]

[Attribute Points: Could be used to increase proficiency in techniques. The cost depends on the proficiency and the grade of the techniques.]

Fang Zhaoge widened his eyes. Although he felt like the third option was mocking him, he also felt relief. At least, he would not repeat what he has done in the simulation.

But still!

"Why the fuck would you give me the third choice for?! You wanted me to taste how it feels to be toyed to death by a bunch of men and my stick getting chomped by a fucking beast?!"

He was furious, but also ecstatic. Not by the same thing, obviously.

Those qualities are definitely his golden finger!

Let's see if the system is worth the insult!

"Please let this be my turning point!"

Fang Zhaoge shouted out, "First!"

[Underdog Legend (Blue) has been obtained!]

His breath hitched. Did he really get that 0.1% chance? Although he felt quite elated before, he definitely did not think of himself as some main character.

Still, it's fine to have some hope, right?

Resolutely, Fang Zhaoge turned solemn as he checked out the new quality.

[Underdog Legend (Blue): You became more talented and powerful the more people underestimated you. Maximum amplification: 50x. Quality limit: Orange.]

Silent. The house turned silent. And then Fang Zhaoge truly cannot hold back at all.

Nearby villagers started to hear some dogs howling in the night, and rumours started to spread that a dog eater kidnapped many dogs to sell them as food.

Startled, the people began to avoid buying meat from the flea markets. Who knows what sort of meat they are using?

Many store owners specializing in food started to curse that dog eater.

"Even if you have a special preference, at least don't implicate us bystanders! F*ck you and your hot dogs! I hope your intestines could go to hell!" A local store owner cursed to the heavens.

After he was done with his session, Fang Zhaoge started to make several plans to make the quality work. But before he could do so, a notification appeared.

[Current Amplification: 15x]

Looking at the panel, Fang Zhaoge's expression turned strange.

"Could it be that my predecessor… has been bullied?"

Perfect! This is perfect!

This is definitely the famous newbie gift pack!

Now, the more he looked at the panel, the more pleased he became. It has redeemed itself.

Without a word, Fang Zhaoge immediately rushed to the table like crazy and madly grasped the scripture, his eyes scanned the words like a pervert would do to a scantily clad, voluptuous lady.

As soon as he practised the scripture, a burst of energy suddenly filled his meridians. It was too smooth, as if it was back to where it belonged.

However, this improvement did not stop Fang Zhaoge from practising the scripture. He diligently guides the energy in the air to his meridians, inhaling deeply to ensure not a single gush would be wasted.

After a few hours of meditating, like a shackle being unlocked, a wave of aura came from Fang Zhaoge's meditating figure. He finally opened his eyes, and a panel immediately appeared.

[Name: Fang Zhaoge]

[Cultivation: 1st Qi Refinement]

[Talent: 15 (1x15 Amplification)]

[Ability: Qi Drawing Technique (Level One Entry)]

[Quality: Underdog Legend (Blue)]

[Strength: 1500kg (100x15 Amplification)]

When his eyes landed on talent, Fang Zhaoge smiled helplessly. Still, he would not be underestimated if he's talented in the first place, no?

According to his fleeting memory, talent 1 represents the realm he could reach in the future. The first realm is Stage 1 Qi Refinement, meaning that he originally could only be a Stage 1 Qi Refinement expert.

The lowest of the lowest of all cultivation realms.

"Does that mean I could only reach Stage 5 Foundation Establishment?"

Compared to his aspirations, it's really not much. Fang Zhaoge threw that kind of thought. He should not bite off more than he could chew.

"Forget it."

Just improving his talent from Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment is heaven defying enough.

The reason he could breakthrough to the Qi Refinement realm is because of the accumulation of his desperate predecessor. So he should not be arrogant.

However, he did not forget the strength enhancement.

"Stage 1 Qi Refinement has 100kg natural strength and 300kg maximum strength."

Natural strength refers to the strength that was exerted simply by a simple act, while maximum strength refers to strength from giving one's all.

"That means my current maximum strength is 4500kg… isn't that stronger than Stage 4 Qi Refinement?"

Realizing this, Fang Zhaoge looked at his own fist strangely.

"This quality is too overpowered…"

It means as long as the strength standard is two times per stage, he would definitely be stronger than a practitioner three stages above him.

Unfortunately, he did not have any combat techniques, or else his strength could be elevated even further.

"I really want to go out!"

Fang Zhaoge naturally did not forget those ruthless bastards who did not spare a guy like him. His gaze darkened as he reread the panel from before.

"I'll let you have the taste of a pole sticking up your a**holes!"

Fang Zhaoge looked around and found a dusty scabbard leaning on the wall. He unsheathed the rusty sword.

It's weak, but it's enough.

With a dark gaze, Fang Zhaoge left his dwelling.

He looked around. Indeed, an immortal world is very beautiful.

He lives in a neighborhood of Green Leaf Village, a remote place at the corner of the Great Ming Empire.

It was said that a month later, an examiner from the Scorching Sun Sect would come to search for buried talents.

Fang Zhaoge noted it down. He walked through the pavewell, occasionally greeting the uncles and aunts within the neighborhood.

"It seems like the me in the simulation was really unlucky. He just had to come out at the wrong time…"

Cultivating took a lot of time, and by the time he came out, it was already morning.

Suddenly, a notification appeared.

[Detected host has a breakthrough and has enough energy to stimulate a simulation. Do you wish to proceed?]

Fang Zhaoge looked thoughtful. Now that he has strength three stages above him and the talent to breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment realm, the content would definitely change, right?

As for more quality, Fang Zhaoge naturally held not much hope. The chance of 10% is just too small. It's best not to be hopeful.

In the next second, Fang Zhaoge muttered, "Proceed."

[16 years old. You breakthrough to Stage 1 Qi Refinement and have unusual strength to challenge three stages above you. You went out to seek revenge. You found the bandit group harassing a young lady.]

[Driven by humiliation, you punch a bandit, and he explodes. After a while, the bandits are gone because of you. Without your realization, the young lady was gone. The uncles and aunties were shocked by your strength and thankful to you for getting rid of the scourges of the village.]

[A month later, the examiner from the Scorching Sun Sect arrived. He took a fancy to your unusual strength and brought you to the sect. Therefore, you became an outer disciple of the Scorching Sun Sect.]

[Unfortunately, your unusual strength invites troubles. Many disciples are jealous of you and you dumbly fell into one of their schemes. They crushed you with their combat techniques.]

[You died.]

"Just you wait!"

Fang Zhaoge could feel his veins bulging underneath his skin. This damn cultivation world is truly a world full of jealousy and greed.

"If I have the quality there, wouldn't my strength be amplified by 50x from the underestimation of those bastards?"

Fang Zhaoge thought for a while, and he found it feasible. In the end, he died in the simulation because he had no system.

[Simulation completed. Please select one of the rewards below:]

[1. Qualities (Available)]

[2. Attribute Points]

[3. Life Memories]

"...There goes my beginner's luck."

Fang Zhaoge sighed. Although the shining option number one had appeared, he knew it was all because of beginner's luck.

Still, this is pretty good. Fang Zhaoge calmly muttered, "First."

[Elemental Talker (White) has been obtained!]

"Not bad."

Fang Zhaoge nodded. It's not as impressive as the blue one, but it's not a loss. Coincidentally, the Scorching Sun Sect is fire-based, so this quality is amplified in terms of usefulness.

He immediately checked out the content.

[Elemental Talker (White): Elements feel quite familiar to you. Increased your proficiency of elements by 3x. Quality limit: Blue]

"Alright, it settled. Now…"

Fang Zhaoge turned to the familiar corner. His eyes are filled with maliciousness.

With his current strength, just a push from his leg could shoot him forward like a canon.

After appearing before the corner with a burst of speed, the clamour behind the corner could be heard by him clearly.

"Ah, a pity, that woman was too good, but she's too weak."

"You're a 1st Qi Refinement while she's a mortal. Of course she would break."

"Who should be my next target then?"

Fang Zhaoge really couldn't take this anymore. His veins bulge as he lifted his leg and kicked. The 4500kg worth of weight behind it easily destroys the corner, revealing a bunch of ruffians.

"What-?!"

Wordlessly, Fang Zhaoge rushed out and punched the bandit in the face, and true to the simulation, he exploded.

The bandit literally exploded.

The nearby bandits are terrified, seeing a demon wordlessly turn their teammate into a bloody mist. They wanted to run, but their legs could only shake helplessly.

Seeing this, Fang Zhaoge showed an evil grin as he slowly revealed his rusty sword.

"You have to taste my Chrysanthemum Extermination technique!"

That day, the Green Leaf Village could vaguely hear the howls of ghosts, rendering them scared. It was also at the corner of the village, a rather desolate corner.

Parents told their children not to be naughty or the ghosts at the corner of the village would haunt them to death, making their faces filled with fear.

As for the main culprit, Fang Zhaoge casually looked at the bandits' belongings, with a bunch of upturned corpses behind him.

One could vaguely see the ruined, blooming chrysanthemum. They're supposed to be closed…

His predecessor was the one who took the trauma of taking someone's life. So the current Fang Zhaoge did not have such a symptom.

"230 taels of silver, a combat technique and a token…"

"Profit! I have profited!"

Instead, he was more ecstatic about the combat technique. He was already so strong, with this, wouldn't he directly take off?

He left quickly, wanting to learn the combat technique. After closing the door, he sat on the mat and opened the scripture.

"Mountain Breaking Fist, a low yellow technique. For a Qi Refinement practitioner like me, it's sufficient."

Fang Zhaoge had no idea how those ruffians could get their hands on this technique. He wordlessly looked at the token, and a name appeared.

"Mountain Bandits."

He cupped his chin thoughtfully. Will he be pursued? Nevertheless, Fang Zhaoge decided to put those aside. Right now, he has to be stronger.

The initial plan was to impress the examiner so he could become an inner disciple directly, but he had no idea what prerequisites he had to fulfill.

Anyhow, even if it does not matter, becoming stronger will be useful in any aspect.

After reading the scripture, Fang Zhaoge stood up and stiffly moved his fist forward.

"To put enough force and energy in the fists to have enough hardness equal to a thousand mountains."

When he read this, Fang Zhaoge hesitated and his cheek twitches. For a low level yellow combat technique, it sure is a good boast. But the content is adequate enough.

After a few hours, Fang Zhaoge performed a punch, and a thunderous shockwave was produced.

"I've learned it!"

He felt joyful, and he couldn't help but look at two of his personal stats.

[Abilities: Qi Drawing Technique (Level 1 Entry), Mountain Breaking Fist (Level 1 Entry)]

[Strength: 1875kg (125x15)]

"My strength has increased by over 25%!"

Now, his current strength is over 5,500kg! Enough to contend with Stage 5 Qi Refinement. Even if they have combat technique, he's confident he could retreat safely.

Suddenly, his stomach growled. Fang Zhaoge pitifully looked down and glanced at the dusty kitchen.

"Let's make some simple dishes."

In the storage box, he only has a few potatoes and some spinach. Fortunately, he still has a few pinches of salt.

"Alright!"

The stove has a hole, and the walls have been fortified with stones. So he did not have to go out to cook.

Soon, he went to the kitchen and lit the stove on fire with a dry stick. He then filled a cauldron with water and placed it above the stove.

After the water inside a black cauldron boiled, he threw in the potatoes he chopped and sprinkled a little bit of salt.

After the potatoes were cooked, he ate them at lighting speed. The feeling of getting stronger is too exciting!

He finished in just dozens of seconds, and soon he went straight to the mat and began to draw qi into his meridians.

The activity went on for a few days before another gush came from Fang Zhaoge's meditating figure.

"2nd Qi Refinement!"

Fang Zhaoge nodded in satisfaction. Although it seems like his talent is low, in truth, for a Foundation Establishment talent, Qi Refinement is just like a run. It's not easy, but not difficult either.

As he expected, a panel appeared.

[Detected that the host has broken through to Stage 2 Qi Refinement, and has enough energy to instigate a simulation. Do you wish to proceed?]

"Proceed!"

[16 years old. You have brokethough to 2nd Qi Refinement. After a month, you have successfully broken through to 3rd Qi Refinement and your proficiency in Qi Drawing Technique has reached Adept.]

[The bandits disturbed you, and you easily crushed them with a fist.]

[An examiner from the Scorching Sun Sect discovered you and was shocked to find that you have enough strength to contend against 6th Qi Refinement practitioner.]

[Ecstatic, he brought you to the sect and recommended you to be an inner disciple. The sect agreed, but you have to stay as an outer disciple for three months.]

[Your brilliance draws jealousy, but you're not so easy to bully. You easily crush those disciples who oppose you, making you famous.]

[A month later, you broke through to the 4th Qi Refinement. You reached Adept in Mountain Breaking Fist, propelling your power even further.]

[A 7th Qi Refinement disciple tried to sabotage you, but you crushed him, making you even more famous.]

[The Sect Master of Scorching Sun Sect secretly talked to you in your cottage, and he nodded approvingly. He was impressed by your combat power to cross levels easily and granted you a low level black cultivation technique, the Sun Drawing Technique.]

[2 months later, you breakthrough to 5th Qi Refinement, and you have reached entry in Sun Drawing.]

[The sect approved of you, and you became an inner disciple. However, such an accomplishment easily drew jealousy from the veterans in the inner circle.]

[You discovered your cultivation has slowed down, and you need to get spiritual stones to enhance your cultivation, so you took up a mission. But before that, you used a month to propel your proficiency in Mountain Breaking Fist to Master.]

[Midway, an inner disciple, Li Yuan, blocked you. He is a newly promoted inner disciple like you, but he promoted relying on his 1st Foundation Establishment realm.]

[Despite your unusual strength to defeat an expert three stages above you, you realized that Foundation Establishment is a whole nother level, and you were easily crushed.]

[You died.]

"Li Yuan, you son of a b*tch!"

Fang Zhaoge gritted his teeth. It was already perfect. He obtained recognition from the Sect Master and he was famous.

But the panel improved his mood.

[Simulation has ended. Please choose your reward:]

[1. Qualities (Not Available)]

[2. Attribute Points]

[3. Life Memories]

Fang Zhaoge became thoughtful. He received the Sun Drawing technique and even trained it to Entry. Even Mountain Breaking Fist was trained to Master.

Attribute points could upgrade skills, but he got 2 upgrades and even a new cultivation technique with Entry proficiency in the simulation!

In the end, the choice was obvious.

"Third!"

[Memories will be integrated. Please be prepared.]

Suddenly, a surge of foreign memories assaulted his mind, and Fang Zhaoge became immobile for a few minutes before he relaxed.

"It hurts a little, but I was too immersed to even notice it."

But that's not important. Immediately Fang Zhaoge looked at his personal stats.

[Abilities: Qi Drawing Technique (Level 1 Adept), Mountain Breaking Fist (Level 1 Master), Sun Drawing Technique (Level 2 Entry)]

[Strength: 6000kg (400x15 Amplification)]

His strength has doubled from the standard. And his maximum strength reached 18000 kg. Enough strength to survive against 7th Qi Refinement practitioner!

Powerful!

Amazing!

And he could feel the bottleneck to reach the next stage has loosened up. Because he already experienced what it felt like to breakthrough to 3rd Qi Refinement.

"The benefits didn't lose out to Qualities!"

No, in some circumstances, it could even vastly surpass it.

"After breaking through, I could initiate another simulation!"

Fang Zhaoge's eyes brightened. He has to work hard!

Immediately, he became immersed in cultivation again, and with the new Sun Drawing Technique, no doubt he'll breakthrough within a week.

The future seems bright. But just as he was about to be immersed, his stomach complained.

Fang Zhaoge opened his eyes in distraught, and he could only obey. He planned to go out to buy some ingredients and spices at the local store. All the potatoes and even the spinach have been consumed.
