Bab 1: Chapter 1: Wei Yang
Jia Ma Empire, Wutan City.
"One-star Fighter!"
In a simple room in the west of the city, the light was slightly dim.
A handsome boy, dressed in black and about twelve or thirteen years old, slowly opened his eyes, a flash of light in his gaze.
Phew~
He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
Wei Yang's eyes were a bit dazed.
In the blink of an eye, it had been six years since he came to this world...
He started cultivating Dou Qi at the age of six, and now after six years, he finally succeeded in breaking through to a Fighter.
"My aptitude shouldn't be worse than Xiao Yan's, perhaps even slightly better?" Wei Yang thought to himself.
Xiao Yan started cultivating at the age of four and broke through to a Fighter at eleven or twelve.
While he himself started at six and also broke through at around twelve.
In this regard alone, he seemed to have a slight edge over Xiao Yan.
Of course, perhaps their mentalities were different.
After all, Xiao Yan, being the son of the Xiao Clan's leader, grew up pampered and surrounded by praise, lacking a sense of urgency.
Wei Yang, on the other hand, when he arrived in this world, found that his mercenary parents had already fallen in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, leaving him an orphan. Knowing this was the Dou Qi continent...
The crisis and urgency pushed him to cultivate diligently.
With no system, no golden finger, the only advantage was knowing the plot, having knowledge of many opportunities.
But without strength, many opportunities would only be pipe dreams despite knowing about them.
So.
He hadn't dared to slack off in the slightest over these six years.
Finally, today, he broke through and became a Fighter.
Currently, Xiao Yan was only nine years old, possessing eight stages of Dou Qi, already a minor celebrity.
Wei Yang, on the other hand, was very low-key, almost unknown in Wutan City, just a small transparent figure.
"Xiao Yan, I'm three years older than you, and now I'm already a Fighter."
"When you become a Fighter three years later, I'll probably be above a Dou Shi."
"And later, when your Dou Qi disappears, your level drops, and you remain dormant for three years, this gives a whole six years of difference between us!"
"As fellow transmigrators, my talent, as a fellow countryman, is not worse than yours. Even if you start cheating later and rise up... you'll have to slowly catch up for these six years, hehehe~"
Wei Yang smiled in his heart.
Of course, he'd never admit that he was actually being sour with envy.
After all, he wanted to cheat too, but sadly, he couldn't.
...
"Fighter!"
Wei Yang then shook his head, ceasing his thoughts, and instead closed his eyes slightly, his mind gradually sinking into his body.
Inner vision.
A supplementary skill one can master only after becoming a Fighter. The higher one's strength, the clearer the understanding of one's internal state.
Wei Yang's mind sank to the location of his lower abdomen, instantly 'seeing' a palm-sized milky white gas swirl, slowly rotating.
Around the swirl was a layer of nebula-like milky white energy gas.
Gazing at this palm-sized swirl, a trace of joy involuntarily emerged in Wei Yang's heart, as it was the result of six years of hard work.
"This is Dou Qi."
Clearly feeling that the energy contained within was at least ten times stronger than the previous nine stages of Dou Qi.
The Dou Qi of a Fighter is fundamentally different from the nine stages of Dou Qi.
The energy absorbed before becoming a Fighter is called Dou Qi, serving to strengthen the body and lay a foundation.
After becoming a Fighter, the energy absorbed is called actual Dou Qi.
Though differing by just one word, the gap between them is as vast as between heaven and earth, incomparable in quality and quantity.
With Wei Yang's mind continually controlling the swirl to inhale and exhale, strands of faint red energy from the world gathered, being refined and absorbed by the swirl.
Time passed.
Once he became more adept at controlling the swirl, Wei Yang stopped and withdrew his mind from his body.
Opening his eyes, there was a flash of milky white light in his pitch-black eyes, which gradually faded away.
"The next step is to cultivate a suitable technique."
Wei Yang stood up, slowly stretching his body, with the bones all over his body emitting a series of crunchy sounds like frying beans.
Facing the rising morning sun, Wei Yang stood in the courtyard, contemplating plans for the future.
After breaking through to a Fighter, to quickly advance and grow, one needs to cultivate a technique suitable for one's attributes.
Techniques and combat skills are divided into four levels: Sky, Earth, Black, and Yellow, with each level further divided into elementary, intermediate, and advanced.
Wei Yang's attribute was fire, with a trace of mutated Yang attribute, a result already tested.
But unfortunately, there was no trace of wood attribute in his attributes.
This was quite exasperating.
As a transmigrator, due to the fusion of souls, having strong soul power was a basic attribute, needless to say.
Strong soul power makes one a good prospect to become a noble alchemist.
But unfortunately, his attribute was fire, lacking that trace of wood attribute, instead having mutated Yang attribute.
His strong soul power seemed wasted.
Alchemists are in high demand!
But there was still some hope.
Wei Yang had some ideas in mind, and if successful...
After all, attributes can be obtained through certain rare treasures or techniques, allowing one to have additional attributes postnatally.
Of course, the main attribute cannot be changed.
But one can get an additional trace of another attribute.
Just like in the original story, Xiao Yan cultivated the Earth-level body skill Three Thousand Lightning Movement, which contained thunder power, and during thunderstorms, he used lightning to temper his body, giving him a trace of thunder attribute.
Green Lotus Core Flame!
Ranked nineteenth on the Abnormal Fire List.
This flame contains the wood attribute.
Not to mention the Green Lotus Core Flame, but just the eleven lotus seeds accompanying the lotus can, when absorbed and refined, perhaps give one a trace of wood attribute.
Whether it will work or not needs to be tested to confirm.
But this is currently too far off, something for the future, provided he has enough strength.
For now, the most important thing is the cultivation technique.
...
After a simple wash, and casually eating something, Wei Yang returned to his room, sitting at the desk.
On the desk, there were many books.
Including: Basic Herb Recognition, Common Herbal Properties, Medicine Basics, How to Become an Alchemist, Alchemist Basic Introduction, Basic Hemostasis and Healing Formula, Encyclopedia of World Treasures, etc.
These were all books on basic knowledge of alchemy, collected with effort by Wei Yang for daily reading. Even if he couldn't become an alchemist in the future, learning more was still good.
After all, cultivation always involves pills and herbs, knowing a bit more is never a disadvantage.
With a strong soul, a sharp mind, good comprehension, and powerful memory, he found reading and comprehending these basic knowledge books to be quite easy.
Wei Yang opened a drawer and took out a light red book.
Yellow-level Advanced Technique: Scarlet Fire Art.
This was a technique left by his parents.
Wei Yang shook his head helplessly, setting the book aside.
A Yellow-level advanced technique was too low-level.
A technique that could at most be cultivated to the peak of Dou Shi, with slow cultivation speed and poor Dou Qi quality.
The Dou Qi cultivated with this technique had no advantage in combat power at the same level.
But currently, Wei Yang had no choice but to cultivate this Scarlet Fire Art and consider switching to a better technique when he finds one in the future.
Better to wait for about two years.
After all, he was only twelve years old, and his strength had just reached Fighter status; there was no security leaving Wutan City for safety outside.
Better not to take risks for now.
In this life, there is nothing but caution.
Thinking this, Wei Yang picked up the book again, flipped through it, and despite knowing the content by heart, read it carefully once more.
After confirming there were no omissions.
"Begin!"
Wei Yang put down the book, returned to the bed, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes.
