Chereads / Seven Deadly Sins System / Chapter 3 - Qi Accumulation

Chapter 3 - Qi Accumulation

The Original Desire Sect's area is massive, enough for hundreds of thousands of people to live here without any problem.

The sect is divided into the Outer Area, the Inner Area, and the Core Area, where the outer disciples, the inner disciples and the core disciples live respectively.

As a new disciple, Chu Wuyao is just an outer disciple and her residence is in the Outer Area.

In the sect, the hierarchy is very strict and only strength truly matters.

This is why Li Ruoshi attacked Chu Wuyao's predecessor, knowing that she would suffer no actual punishment for doing so.

As an evil sect, the elders of the Original Desire Sect don't care about the life of most disciples.

After all, every year, new disciples will be recruited into the sect, replacing those "worthless", dead disciples.

Perhaps the elders and the Sect Leader are actually happy to see the competition between the disciples since it can temper them.

Su Qianyi's residence is also in the Outer Area, so it didn't take long for Chu Wuyao to arrive at her house.

It was a small house made out of stone, with only a small window next to the door and a few rooms in it, just enough for one person to live in.

Chu Wuyao stretched her hand to open the door and quietly entered it.

Once inside, she walked to the wooden bed and sat down.

Feeling the hard, cold surface on her butt, she felt that the sect didn't care about the outer disciples at all!

After she cursed the Sect Leader's whole family, she opened the panel.

[Name: Chu Wuyao]

[Race: Human]

[Cultivation: None]

[Technique: Original Desire Sutra(0/5)]

[Skills: None]

[Status: Healthy]

[Sin Points: 5]

Chu Wuyao glanced at her Sin Points and didn't hesitate to spend them.

Since she couldn't directly improve her cultivation because she hadn't learned any technique, she clicked on the (+) next to the Original Desire Sutra.

In an instant, the Sin Points decreased and a warm current spread throughout Chu Wuyao's body.

From her abdomen, the energy flowed to her chest, then to her hands and legs and finally reached her head.

While this was happening, her brain was filled with inexplicable information regarding the Original Desire Sutra, giving her the illusion that she had practiced it continuously for years.

As a technique practiced by the Original Desire Sect, the Original Desire Sutra isn't comparable to those techniques that casual cultivators practice.

Not only can it increase the user's cultivation, but it is also accompanied by various suitable skills.

Knowledge about illusions, swords, palms, punches, charm and countless other things appeared inside Chu Wuyao's mind.

Time passed slowly and when Chu Wuyao recovered, her strength had increased dramatically.

This was not only an increase in cultivation, but also an increase in knowledge and combat power.

Her eyes opened and glowed with a red, seductive light, before it quickly disappeared.

Chu Wuyao stretched her hands and felt her body's condition, immediately noticing that her strength was countless times stronger than before.

Before, she was just an ordinary mortal, but now, she was actually a cultivator.

Even if that cultivator was only the lowest cultivator possible.

Bringing her hand in front of her eyes, Chu Wuyao found that despite her hand's hidden power, the skin was still as smooth as before and the palm looked delicate and completely harmless.

She had to wonder if the Original Desire Sutra had a beauty-enhancing effect.

But then, she stopped thinking about these meaningless things and opened the panel again, wanting to see her information.

[Name: Chu Wuyao]

[Race: Human]

[Cultivation: 1st Level of Qi Accumulation(0/10)]

[Technique: Original Desire Sutra - 1st Level(0/100)

[Skills: Charm(0/10), Fog of Hallucination(0/10), Illusion Eyes(0/10)]

[Sin Points: 0]

Compared to before, the panel had changed entirely.

Her cultivation had changed to the 1st Level of Qi Accumulation and there were also various new skills on the [Skills] column.

Out of habit, Chu Wuyao glanced over them, wanting to display their information.

[Charm(Passive): Your charm is slightly enhanced.]

[Fog of Hallucination: You can create a fog with hallucinating effects.]

[Illusion Eyes: A pair of eyes that can create illusions and increase the user's eyesight.]

Chu Wuyao saw the Charm skill and became speechless.

"Worthy of being a dual cultivation sect.", she sighed.

Thankfully, the other two skills were quite good and could at least be used in battle.

The Fog of Hallucination was a group-attack that didn't distinguish between allies and enemies but was very suitable for dealing with multiple enemies, while the Illusion Eyes was a single-enemy attack.

Chu Wuyao was a little unhappy that she didn't learn an attack skill, but she had to make do with what she had.

"But even now that my strength has increased, I'm still unable to deal with LI Ruoshi."

In this world, cultivation is divided into: Qi Accumulation Realm, Shackles Realm, Awakening Realm and Supernatural Power Realm.

There are still realms above this, but this is not knowledge that Chu Wuyao is able to come into contact with.

According to their realm, the disciples in the Original Desire Sect are also divided into outer disciples, inner disciples and core disciples.

Outer disciples are in the Qi Accumulation Realm, inner disciples are in the Shackles Realm, etc..

As an older disciple, Li Ruoshi was at the 7th Level of Qi Accumulation.

The gap between the 1st Level of Qi Accumulation and the 7th is actually huge, as the 7th Level is considered the Late Stage of Qi Accumulation while the 1st Level is only the starting point of cultivation.

Chu Wuyao didn't know if Li Ruoshi knew that she had survived and how she would act if she learned about it.

Would she ignore her, or come back and kill her once and for all?

That didn't stop her though from taking Li Ruoshi as her short-term opponent.

And at the moment, Chu Wuyao judged that she would be completely helpless if Li Ruoshi tried to kill her.

There was a massive difference in their cultivation and strength, which could not be bridged through intelligence or planning.

Now that Chu Wuyao had transmigrated once and arrived to this world, she didn't want to bet whether she could transmigrate again if she died.

Especially since this is a world of cultivation, Chu Wuyao wanted to reach the top, take control of her destiny, become carefree and act as she desires without having to worry about the consequences!

Thinking of this, her hatred towards Li Ruoshi increased.

"Why? Why do you have to force me?"

"Why can't you let me cultivate quietly without causing me trouble?"

"Why do you have to seek death?", she shouted and angrily punched the furniture next to the bed, shattering it into pieces.

Pieces of wood and dust flew all over the room and some drops of blood flowed out of her delicate hand.

Her violent outbreak helped Chu Wuyao calm down and she started thinking about her future actions.

"Li Ruoshi is considered very strong even among the older outer disciples and is expected to reach the Shackles Realm and become an inner disciple in the future."

"Unless I can increase my strength quickly, I will be in danger."

"But increasing my strength on my own will take some time and time is what I'm most lacking currently."

"Only by relying on the system can I survive.", she thought and looked at the panel floating in front of her eyes.

"I need to get more Sin Points!"
