Blue Star, Tianxuan Country, Su Feng City
"Recently, a new Mystic Realm appeared in the Qinling Mountains of our country. The Xuantian Division headquarters has sent people to investigate!"
"A giant python in the South Sea transformed into a Dragon, causing chaos for several days. Qing He, the head of the Qing He Temple, personally went there and killed the Dragon with three swords!"
"Sword Sect's head Disciple, Fang Tong, successfully obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Sword Sect ruins. His cultivation is advancing a thousand miles a day and he is not accepting interviews for now!"
Inside the internet cafe, Lu An was intently watching the news, his eyes full of envy.
He had transmigrated not long ago, arriving in this world a week ago. He remembered that before he transmigrated, he was camping in the wilderness. Perhaps it was because he ate a certain type of mushroom for dinner; when he woke up, he was in this world.
This planet is called Blue Star, and its history is almost identical to Earth's, but a hundred years ago, several spiritual energy tides occurred.
Since then, Blue Star's volume has increased several times over. Some people awakened abilities. Wild beasts, due to abundant spiritual energy, grew massively in size and became ferocious, turning into fierce beasts capable of releasing various energies. Plants also underwent strange changes under the nourishment of spiritual energy.
Some ancient books recording Cultivation Techniques emitted a faint glow. According to the cultivation methods recorded in the books, ordinary people could control an energy called spiritual energy. Spiritual energy nourished the human body, causing evolution, and also allowed control over many divine and mysterious powers.
Those concerned with the world publicly released the cultivation methods, giving people who were suffering terribly from resisting the attacks of fierce beasts a chance to catch their breath.
As time went on, many ruins appeared in various places. Some ruins contained an alternate dimension inside, with many ancient legacies such as Cultivation Techniques, Spirit Medicines, spirit artifact inheritances, and so on.
With the help of these ancient inheritances, strong individuals emerged one after another, eventually counterattacking the fierce beasts, killing most of them, and confining them to the primitive wilderness.
The development of Cultivators has become an indispensable part of people's lives today. Various countries have established different institutions and departments, including various Academies, guilds, and training halls for cultivating Spirit Cultivators.
And the original owner was a Student at Su Feng City One High.
The original owner was also named Lu An, looked exactly the same as him, had living parents who ran a herbal medicine shop, and had a Sister named Shen Li. On the day he transmigrated, the original owner suffered a psychological blow at school, went home, and slept without waking up. After that, he came to this world.
Originally, he was quite looking forward to life in the future. After all, who wouldn't like the exhilarating feeling of killing a Dragon with three swords and getting 999 with one slash, like in the news?
But, after inheriting all the memories, he fell silent, sinking into a long period of speechlessness.
He was numb.
The original owner's talent was extremely poor. In this world, talent is currently divided into one to nine stars, with one star being the lowest and nine stars the highest. When he went to test his talent with Shen Li before, the result was one star.
In other words, he could Cultivate, but he wouldn't achieve much in his lifetime. This was also the reason why the original owner was so dejected.
As everyone knows, the higher a Cultivator's cultivation level, the longer their lifespan. It's no exaggeration to say they are superior beings.
The scenery along the path of cultivation is something ordinary people can never imagine in their lifetime.
At that time, Lu An was dumbfounded when he saw this. 'You let me transmigrate here but don't give me the ability to Cultivate, and I still have to be bullied by some brats?' But he couldn't do anything about it; talent is predetermined.
Although there are now some medicines made from spirit herbs that can improve talent, they are extremely expensive, and the degree of improvement is limited. His parents wanted to buy him a talent-improving potion, but the original owner refused.
He was Qing Chu about his own talent. Even after improvement, it would still be mediocre, so why waste that money? Although he couldn't go far on the path of cultivation, he could help manage the pharmacy or do some small business to increase their income in the future.
"Forget it, time to go home and eat." Staring at the screen and letting his thoughts wander for a long time, Lu An shook his head and prepared to go home.
Why think about so many pointless things? If he couldn't Cultivate, then he wouldn't.
At worst, he could be a cultural and entertainment 'porter' (referring to bringing content from Earth), and life would still be wonderful.
It would just be a shorter life compared to Cultivators, that's all.
...
Lu An's home was in a residential building in a tree-lined neighborhood. The environment was nice, and the buildings were quite beautiful.
On the way home, he pondered how he should plan for the future while thinking about what dishes there would be today.
"I'm back."
Returning home, the first thing Lu An saw was a slender woman with a waterfall of hair draped over her shoulders, willow eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and a beautiful face, wearing pajamas, sitting on the sofa and looking at him.
The woman smiled slightly at him, her thin red lips exceptionally beautiful: "You're back. Wash your hands and go eat. Mom and Dad might not be back today because of something at the pharmacy."
Shen Li, a Spirit Warrior level three cultivation, two months older than Lu An, had been attending One High. She was the orphan of Lu An's parents' former close friend, entrusted to his parents' care. Lu Dad and Lu Mom treated her like their own daughter, their meticulous care making Lu An somewhat jealous. She was also a Genius, naturally possessing ice element talent. When tested, her talent reached nine stars, and various Academies immediately promised her guaranteed admission and a full package of resources. However, she didn't make a decision on the spot, saying she would choose after graduating from senior year.
Seeing her, Lu An was quite surprised. He then smiled at her and said, "Sister, you're back so early today?"
"There was nothing at school, so I came back early. Also, why haven't you been to school these past few days? Did something happen?" Shen Li said, staring intently at his face, as if trying to find a trace of something unusual.
"Nothing happened, I just felt a bit unwell these past few days and stayed home to rest," Lu An replied dismissively.
He had been researching information and preparing for his 'porter' work these past few days, so he wasn't really interested in going to school.
Shen Li didn't pay too much attention and said, "Well, have you rested enough? You must go to school tomorrow. That little girlfriend of yours keeps asking me what's wrong with you, it's driving me crazy."
Saying this, Shen Li frowned.
"Girlfriend my foot, she's just a normal friend at most," Lu An vehemently denied. He also felt a bit helpless about that female classmate. The original owner's misfortune was likely caused by her, but it was also the original owner's cowardice.
If it were him, he wouldn't die at school anyway. At worst, he'd fight tooth and nail. Only by making the trash afraid would they know fear.
As the saying goes, 'the barefoot don't fear the shoed.' He could very well be the one who didn't care about his life.
If that didn't work, he'd report them to the parents. If it still couldn't be solved, he'd find Reporters.
Or he could buy a few 'Exploding Talismans.' This stuff is like a small bomb, very effective.
There were many methods, but unfortunately, the original owner didn't think of any of them.
"Enough talk, hurry up and eat. Go to bed early. Look at your small frame, it's so weak and frail."
Lu An shook his head speechlessly, turned around, washed his hands, and went to eat.
...
After eating, he returned to his bedroom. Lu An opened his phone and scrolled through Kuaishou for a while. When he came back to his senses, it was already deep into the night. He plugged in his phone to charge and prepared to sleep.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
Just then, a deafening commotion suddenly came from outside the window. The intense noise instantly wiped away Lu An's sleepiness. He quickly pulled back the curtains and looked outside.
In the gloomy night sky, a massive, pitch-black cross-shaped rift had appeared at some point. It was a chaotic darkness that even light couldn't penetrate, forming a stark contrast with the gloomy sky. Streams of gray-black gas poured out from the rift. The whooshing sound was the sound of the gas gushing out. Staring at the rift for a long time, faint, unsettling whispers could be heard in his ears.
Lu An was greatly shocked as he looked up at the cross-shaped rift. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. He saw two streams of gray-black gas speeding towards him.
Although he didn't know what the hell it was, that didn't stop him from quickly closing the window. Anyway, judging by its appearance, it definitely wasn't anything good. Closing the window first was definitely the right move.
But it was useless. The window couldn't block the invasion of the gray-black gas. The two streams of gas passed through the window with a 'whoosh' and entered Lu An's body.
After the gas entered his body, various strange, mournful howls suddenly rang in his ears, their tone becoming increasingly frantic.
His body gradually became cold and stiff, and his consciousness felt like it was frozen by severe cold. Not long after, Lu An's consciousness was as weak as a candle in the wind, on the verge of collapsing and falling into a coma.
Even though he knew he shouldn't fall asleep, his mind became increasingly heavy.
【Ding, Super Little Assistant activated!】
【Detecting evil Mei entering the host's body, currently absorbing...】
Two ethereal voices came from Lu An's mind. His weak consciousness instantly became as excited as if it had taken a stimulant. After these two voices appeared, the freezing sensation seemed to encounter some terrifying natural enemy and was slowly swallowed up. He regained control of his body's senses, and his consciousness broke free from the heavy stupor, gradually becoming clear.
【Ding, absorption complete, Source Energy +10】
【Ding, due to This Auxiliary's slow activation causing the host to encounter danger, a compensation gift package has been issued. Please check it!】
After a brief moment of confusion, Lu An looked at the several notification sounds in his mind, his expression slowly returning to calmness.
He knew. His Golden Finger had arrived.
