"Ugh." 'Where the fuck am I now?' "Woah!" 'Damn, I feel like crying right now. Like damn, I almost forgot what colors looked like. The green trees, the flowers, the purple glowing flower and that... wait, what the fuck is that purple glowing flower!?'
*Linking to host… 12% … 63% 100%*
*Ding! Wishes of the soul have been compromised due to multiversal crashing.*
*Ding! The host has 1 message written by the automatic error system.*
*Goodbye traveler and good luck in your new life at #&^@%^&%.*
A ton of information was then dumped into my head, or my soul. Or no, wait, where exactly is it? How do I describe it? It's like I have my soul and then I now have a D drive in it, not just a C drive. The difference is that it can't be removed, ever.
"Well, this is rather interesting. Hmmm." 'So basically, my wishes or my gibberish at the time were trying to be granted by whatever universe I crashed through. Since the wishes were not part of that universe, it struggled to fulfill them. But since I smashed through the multiverse barriers, the thing or system that was trying to grant my wishes used the void I had absorbed and the barrier shards to fulfill the wishes. However, since I crashed through the other end of the multiverse, it got mashed up. But it's way better this way.'
Instead of a gamer's system and a cultivation technique, it kind of mixed. So I got the 'Gamer's Cultivation Emporium,' a series of techniques that I can use as one or separately if I have subordinates in the future. But it can be broken down into Gamer's Soul Cultivation, which incorporates the soul protection I wished for. Essentially, I can now endlessly reincarnate with my memories intact without having an identity crisis. This also strengthens my soul, much more proficiently than I did in the void. Then there's the Gamer's Mind Cultivation, which allows my mind to continue growing, enabling me to think faster and run multiple processes simultaneously, like super advanced multitasking. Next is the Gamer's Body Cultivation Technique, a blend of multiple body cultivation techniques that will make my body stupendously strong, though I still don't completely understand it. The incredible thing is that these techniques allow me to absorb anything negative, be it impurities or bad emotions, and convert it into energy for my cultivation. Moreover, not having an actual gamer's system means that if I die, I can actually live again without ever truly dying. While my body would perish, my soul would still reincarnate, and I'd retain my soul powers to an extent since the non-existent system can't be taken away.
Apart from that, I also have a barebones adaptation system, sort of. It's not a system, but according to the message left by the automatic reincarnation system, it helps me learn things faster and comprehend them better. It provides brief information about the skill I learn and has a level system. I can't level up, but my skills can. When they reach a certain level, they will provide me with basic information corresponding to the level I've reached about the acquired skill. It also displays my status, but that's about it, and I must say, that's pretty awesome.
'Now that's settled, where in the hell am I, and whose body is this?'
"Status"
*Name: Luo Jin
Age: 16
Race: Human
Bloodline: Chaotic Void Behemoth (Locked)
Cultivation Realm: N/A
Cultivation Technique: N/A
Skills: N/A*
"Hmm, so my name now is Luo Jin. Well, that's going to take a while to get used to." 'Let's see if I can access this body's memories in that D: drive I mentioned earlier.'
"Well, shit, that was unexpected, but this is also good." 'It seems I'm in the world of Apotheosis, and I'm from the branch family of the Luo clan that was killed when the main character's cousin's family murdered his father (well I think it was a clone body). So, I am two years younger than the protagonist, but we never interacted in the clan. It seems my family was chased by the traitors and were all killed, including this body. It also appears to be around the time when the story would start, but I'm not entirely sure. First things first, I need to get out of this forest before nightfall and find a place to stay. Luckily, I still have a few bronze tails, which should be enough for a week at a decent inn. Then, I'll need to start cultivating and head to the Qing Sect.'
"Ouch! Shit!! It hurts, damn it! I forgot this body had been stabbed. I need to find something before I walk towards a town." After walking around for a bit, I picked up a random weed and then a fantasy-looking plant.
*Ding! Herbology Lv1 acquired*
"Nice. This feels pretty good. Okay, so that's pretty helpful, actually."
'It seems to have given me incredibly basic knowledge based on herbology, so I should be able to identify some herbs and make a makeshift healing paste.' After walking around a 10-meter radius from where I woke up, I found some basic herbs. 'Heaven Swallowing Grass, check. Reed Breathing Vine, check. Blue Aloe Saliva, check.' After grinding the ingredients into a paste with two rocks, I applied it to the wounds. Slowly but surely, my wounds started hurting less, and I could see a small scar forming, albeit very slowly, but incredibly fast compared to anything on Earth.
*Ding! Herbology Lv1 ~> Lv3*
'Oh, wow. I kinda see how it works. It doesn't give me new knowledge now, but it shows me where I can improve what I just did. It's like a bit of fog has been lifted from my view.'
'Now, off to the nearest town!'
