Late at night, the city lights were still bright, but the light couldn't shine into Chen Yang's exhausted heart.
In an office of an office building, most of the colleagues had left, and only he was still staring at the computer screen intently. The lines of code turned into dense ants, crawling chaotically in front of his eyes.
"This project must be completed on time, or else..." Chen Yang murmured in a low voice, his bloodshot eyes full of anxiety and obsession.
He had been working overtime for several consecutive days for this project, and his body had already issued a strong protest, but the pressure at work made him unable to stop.
Suddenly, a strong sense of dizziness hit him, and Chen Yang's vision began to blur. "Ah!" There was a sharp pain in his chest, and he covered his chest with both hands, and his whole body fell backward uncontrollably. With a "bang", his body fell heavily to the ground, and the documents on the desk were scattered all over the floor.
"Am I going to die suddenly?"
At the last moment when his consciousness dissipated, the faces of his parents flashed through Chen Yang's mind, as well as those unfulfilled dreams. He was full of unwillingness but powerless.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yang woke up slowly in a noisy sound. Before he opened his eyes, all kinds of strange voices filled his ears.
"Why did this child suddenly pass out?"
"Could it be that he's possessed by something evil?"
"Hurry up and call the doctor!"
Chen Yang opened his eyes suddenly and found himself lying on an antique carved bed, surrounded by several people in ancient costumes, their faces full of concern and worry.
"Where is this? Who are you?" Chen Yang asked in horror.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, with confusion in their eyes. At this time, an elderly man with gray hair and a kind expression stepped forward and said, "Young master, what's wrong with you? Don't you even recognize me, your old servant? This is the Chen family, and you are the young master of the Chen family."
"The Chen family? The young master?" Chen Yang was completely stunned. He pinched his arm hard, and the pain made him realize that this was not a dream. But he was clearly working overtime in the office, so how did he suddenly end up here and become the young master of the Chen family?
Before Chen Yang could figure it out, suddenly, a memory that didn't belong to him flooded into his mind. The original owner of this body was also named Chen Yang, a down-and-out nobleman who had been secretly harmed. The family was once glorious, but now it is in crisis due to various changes.
"Could it be that I've transmigrated?" Chen Yang was shocked in his heart. As an avid web novel reader, he was no stranger to transmigration, but when it really happened to him, he still found it unbelievable.
Just when Chen Yang was shocked, a cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "A suitable host has been detected. The Destiny System is binding... 10%, 20%... 100%. Binding successful."
"What system?" Chen Yang asked subconsciously, and the voice echoed in his mind.
"I am the Destiny System, from an unknown and mysterious existence. You can draw modern scientific and technological knowledge through me and convert it into cultivation resources to improve your strength in this world." The voice of the system sounded again, explaining unhurriedly.
Chen Yang was both surprised and happy. He didn't expect that after transmigrating, he actually got a golden finger. With this system, maybe he could really make a name for himself in this world.
"System, what should I do now?" Chen Yang asked impatiently.
"The host can first understand the basic settings of this world to better utilize the system. This world is based on spiritual power, and the cultivation system is divided into multiple realms such as body refining, foundation building, and golden elixir. The cultivation method determines the efficiency and height of cultivation, and pills can assist cultivation. In addition, there are powerful sects that control abundant resources and supreme power." The system introduced methodically.
Chen Yang listened very carefully, secretly amazed at the magic of this world. At the same time, he also realized that this was a world where the strong were respected, and if he wanted to gain a foothold here, he must constantly improve his strength.
"System, how do I draw modern scientific and technological knowledge and convert it into cultivation resources?" Chen Yang continued to ask.
"The host only needs to silently recite the field of knowledge he wants to draw in his heart, and the system will automatically convert it. For example, you can draw chemical knowledge to improve alchemy; draw physical knowledge to strengthen your cultivation skills." The system answered patiently.
Chen Yang's heart moved. In modern times, he was an IT engineer and had some knowledge of various scientific and technological knowledge. Now that he had the system, this knowledge might become his trump card in this world.
"System, I want to try drawing chemical knowledge." Chen Yang recited silently in his heart.
Instantly, Chen Yang felt a flash of light in his mind, and countless pieces of chemical knowledge flooded into his consciousness like a torrent. At the same time, the voice of the system sounded again: "Chemical knowledge drawn successfully, which can be used to improve alchemy and make special potions."
Chen Yang was overjoyed. He didn't expect that drawing knowledge would be so simple. With this chemical knowledge, he believed that he could definitely walk out a unique path on the cultivation road in this world.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man in black rushed in. Seeing that Chen Yang had woken up, he showed a hint of surprise on his face and said, "Young master, you've finally woken up! I am the steward Wang Zhong. How are you feeling?"
Chen Yang looked at the loyal old steward in front of him, and a warm current surged in his heart. He remembered from the memory of the original owner that Wang Zhong had always been loyal to the Chen family and never had any second thoughts even when the family was down and out.
"Uncle Wang, I'm fine." Chen Yang tried to make his tone sound natural. "I want to know about the current situation of our family."
Wang Zhong sighed and said with a worried face, "Young master, our Chen family is in a very difficult situation now. Most of the family's industries have been annexed, the capital chain has been broken, and there is a lot of debt. Moreover, recently, some mysterious forces have been secretly targeting us. I'm worried..."
Chen Yang frowned. He didn't expect the situation of the Chen family to be so bad. However, with the Destiny System, he was confident that he could change everything.
"Uncle Wang, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to revive the Chen family." Chen Yang said firmly.
Wang Zhong looked at Chen Yang's firm eyes and was slightly moved in his heart. He felt that the young master seemed to have changed after waking up, with a confidence and determination in his eyes that he had never had before.
"Okay, young master. As long as you have confidence, I will support you with all my strength!" Wang Zhong nodded heavily.
Chen Yang nodded and began to make plans in his heart. He decided to first use the chemical knowledge drawn by the system to improve alchemy and make high-quality pills, and then sell the pills to earn funds to solve the urgent needs of the family.
"Uncle Wang, does our family have an alchemy business?" Chen Yang asked.
"Yes, but because of the lack of high-quality pill recipes and alchemists, the business has never been very good." Wang Zhong replied.
"That's good." A glint flashed in Chen Yang's eyes. "Uncle Wang, help me prepare some materials for alchemy. I want to give it a try."
Wang Zhong was a little puzzled, but he still said without hesitation, "Okay, young master. I'll go and prepare right away."
Looking at the back of Wang Zhong leaving, Chen Yang took a deep breath. He knew that his journey in this world had just begun, and there would be countless challenges and opportunities waiting for him ahead. But he was not afraid because he had the system, knowledge from modern times, and a heart that wanted to change his fate.
