A girl who grew up with psychological abuse, must come to terms with her present reality. Other stories include the world that led up to the events of the two civil wars in That Time I Was Shot With A Guillotine Gun, And Lived To Tell The Tale. Reincarnation is actually a thing.

Some of these are a slightly different genre, called Magical Realism. Many of the later novellas I would write would be more like these stories, rather than my earliest novella.

To know if a person can cultivate is to know if one can feel the spiritual energy of the earth, and that requires a long process of meditation for only to know if he can recognize and feel it, in case he can, the method begins to absorb it within the Dantian, after the energy has been deposited inside the Dantian, is gradually merging with the energy itself and is released to the body, gradually opening the meridians of the body, expelling impurities accumulated within the body. The impurities will come out little by little until the body returns to a state where each organ, each muscle and each bone is clean and can absorb the energy of the earth and the natural elements to be one with the earth and obtain full power. As long as the body continues to undergo these transformations, the body and the spirit will reach a state with which they can equal the gods.

All this explanation, Qiang Shen gave them to his parents and his friend. "Then, one can become immortal?" mama Qiang asked. "It's correct," Qiang Shen replied. "To achieve immortality we, the cultivators must pass through nine realisms: Human, Earthly, Warrior, Master, Grand Master, Sage, Heavenly, Divine and God. When a cultivator reaches the first realism, the body is strengthened. When you breakthrough in the second realism, the body absorbs the natural elements with the energy of Yin and Yang, when you breakthrough in the realism of warrior, that is the third realism, it is necessary to choose a Dao1 to be able to continue cultivating. When you breakthrough in the realism of Master, this allows the cultivator to use his Weapon at will, they normally use it to fly on their swords in the sky, the realism of the great master allows us to materialize the internal energy in the real world and we can forge spiritual weapons, in Sage realism, we can manipulate space at will, we can travel thousands of km with only one step, in the realism heavenly, if your body is destroyed, your spirit will remain and be able to continue cultivating, and when you breakthrough at divine realism, no matter how many times your body is destroyed, you can always rebuild it. To arrive at the realism of God literally means that, we can enter the place where the gods live.

One realism is more difficult than the other, and when one breakthrough  in the another realism, their life span increases. I am currently in the pinnacle of the second realism almost to breakthrough  the third realism, my current life span is almost 450 years. "

When Qiang Shen finished talking, his parents and his friend were shoked, they could not believe Qiang Shen was telling them, but seeing his face, they knew he was not lying.

"Well, I explained you what the path of cultivation is, let's start, Jiang Chen, I need you to sit on the ground as if you were going to meditate and close your eyes, I will try to pass energy from the earth, try to feel it!

Qiang Shen never knew how to do the basic meditation to start cultivating because they could not waste time when he began his training, so his teacher had to use the fastest but dangerous method which was to force him to feel the energy. With his help and when he succeeded to open by force his meridians to absorb the natural energy, on that occasion he did not know how long he was suffering pain in his body where even breathing was painful. In this life it was easier because, as he already knew how to feel and absorb natural energy, he opened its meridian more safely, so I use the same method as my teacher but in a more secure way.

Qiang Shen stood behind Jiang Chen put his right hand at the level of the head and the left hand put it at the level of the heart, closed his eyes and began to absorb natural energy from the earth but instead of absorbing it in his dantian He directed it to his hands and started transmitting it to Jiang Chen.

"Can you feel the energy that is flowing to your body?" he ask to Jiang Chen "no, I do not feel anything" he answered.

After being in that position for more than twenty minutes, Qiang Shen separated from Jiang Chen "no, apparently you can not cultivate." "Then what's going to happen?" Jiang Chen asked. "The only way you have left is magic" said Qiang Chen "that is the same path that my parents, but I need to know which way of magic you will choose".

"What way?" papa Qiang asked. "Yes" Qiang Shen replied "magic is divided into 6 types: elemental magic, magic of invocation, alchemy, sorcery, racial and spiritual.

Elemental magic uses the power of natural elements. The elements are earth, water, fire, wind, light and darkness. There are special elements such as ice, lightning and wood that you can acquire by handling more than one element.

The magic of invocation allows you to invoke beings, phenomena or objects depending on the power of the invoker.
 
Alchemy allows you to transform matter, forge spiritual weapons, make potions and make magic amplifiers.

Sorcery is magic based on enchantments.

Racial magic is almost extinct. Thousands of years ago, there were different races in this world, elves, dwarves, fairies, ogres, sirens. Those races now extinct at some time were combined with the human. An example of racial magic is in singers who have managed to captivate the masses through their voice, that characteristic was only of the race of the sirens.

Spiritual magic is where magicians use their spirit to manifest it and even use the power of the gods to perform them. The rituals enter into this magic.

All classifications are measured in degrees or levels and there are up to nine levels in magic... "

While Qiang Shen was explaining, the door is open and Qiang Xun enters running.


Notes:
1.- It can be translated literally by "the way", or by "the method" or "the doctrine".

In a destroyed world where humanity is on the verge of extinction, a survivor uses a spell combining the magic of different civilizations to return to its past and prevent the end of the world ... or at least, give humanity the weapons to be able to survive.

"If you wish to cast magic, then you must first learn to feel the flow of mana," said Lefi. She swept the cookie crumbs off her dress and disposed of the plastic bag by handing to Shii, who happily consumed it without any complaint. The encyclopedia in my head claimed that the dungeon's monsters didn't actually need sustenance, but that didn't mean they couldn't eat. Clearly, the slime thought of the plastic bag as a sort of delicious treat. I had been worried about the effect of modern trash on the local ecosystem, but Shii's willingness to consume it put an immediate end to my concerns.

"Hold out both your hands." Lefi stuck out her hands while instructing me to do the same.
"Uhh… alright." I didn't really know what she was trying to do, but I shrugged off my doubts and did as she said.
"Woaaaah! The hell's going on!?"

A sort of powerful energy began flowing through me the moment she grasped my hands. It continued to flow from her right hand and through my body before cycling back into her through her left.

Its identity was evident.

The strange power I felt coursing through my veins was magical energy, mana.

The intense stream of power flowing through our bodies was clearly of a different nature than the mana that filled the dungeon. It felt like it was raging about within me, like it would crush me if I let my guard down, even for just a moment.

Lefi kept the magical torrent at full blast for a few minutes, then slowly began reducing the amount she cycled through me bit by bit before finally cutting it off altogether. I collapsed the moment she did. My breath was ragged and my heart totally out of control. Barely any time had passed, but I felt as exhausted as I would had I run a marathon at full sprint.

"It appears that you are fortunate. The process went well." Lefi flashed me an amused smile as she spoke.
"For..tun…ate…?" I was so out of breath that it took me three breaths to speak a single word.
"The process I just completed was to forcibly incite your magical energy to action by invigorating it with my own." She shrugged as she spoke in an indifferent tone. "The process would have failed had you been unable to endure my essence, and your head would have burst in a violent explosion of blood and gore."
"T-The heck did you just do to me!? That's hella terrifying!"

Lefi responded to my outburst with yet another nonchalant shrug. "Fret not. I only chose to conduct the act because I had judged that you were powerful enough a demon to endure my essence, and I was proven correct."
"But—"
"That is enough. Save your complaints. Begin to cycle your magical energies throughout your body before you forget the sensation. I would wager that it has become a rather simple task."

I wasn't exactly satisfied with the reason she'd put my life at risk without so much as even telling me, but I shelved the thought for the time being and did as she said. That is, I stood up, closed my eyes, and began to focus.

Lefi was right. I could feel it. I could feel my mana. Most of it was centered in the area around my solar plexus. Though I hadn't been able to feel even the slightest bit before Lefi had acted, I was now able to actively pick up on it.

I began to move it around by emulating what Lefi had used hers to do just a few moments earlier.

I had a bit of difficulty getting my mana to start moving. It was kind of like stirring a viscous liquid with a spoon. It resisted quite heavily at first, but it started smoothing out and speeding up as I continued to push on it. The glob of magical energy soon began to spread and circulate throughout my body. It didn't take too long for it to feel as if it reached every single last capillary. And since I wasn't dealing with any sort of external energy this time around, moving my mana didn't disorient me or make me feel sick. It was kind of like how some people had the tendency to get carsick if they weren't at the wheel. Everything felt fine since I was the one in control. I hadn't ever driven a car myself so I couldn't confirm that this and that were exactly the same, but it was at least something along that vein.

"Splendid. You have succeeded in bringing your mana to an active state. It is precisely that state that serves as the basis of all magic." I could hear Lefi. I knew that she was talking to me, and I understood what she was saying, but I couldn't respond. I was too focused on moving my magical energy through my body to actually squeeze out any sort of reply. "It has come time for us to move on to the next step. First, you must envision what I describe to you, and then you must recite the chant I speak."

Lefi paused to wait for me to reply, so I squeezed out a bit of a nod.

"Imagine a wide open field, a grassy plain." Her words caused the area surrounding the dungeon to appear in my head. "Focus on but a single one of the flowers therein. Pick it, stem and all, and place it within your palm."

The scale of the image in my mind suddenly shrank; I imagined myself plucking one of the flowers right by my feet.

"Are you done?" She awaited another nod before continuing. "Good. Hold out your hand and repeat after me: 'Create Bloom.'"
"Create Bloom."

A portion of the magical energy circulating throughout my body suddenly focused itself in my left hand as I repeated Lefi's words. I waited for the outwards flow of mana to stop before finally opening my eyes.

"Woah, that's a pretty flowe—wait, what the hell!?" I tossed the flower aside as I complained. Though I'd chucked it without a care, it ended up gently making its way to the ground.
"What?" Lefi cocked her head. "Are you dissatisfied?"
"Yes and no. Using magic for the first time was pretty awesome and all that, but like… why a flower? Couldn't we have done something, you know, a little more impressive?" I couldn't help but point out the fact that creating flowers wasn't exactly what I had in mind when I thought of magic.

"That is merely because the spell was only meant to serve as your introduction to magic. We shall immediately move on to grander things. I would like you to cast another spell, and this time, envision a flame. You need not chant. All you need is to imagine yourself forming a flame with your mana. The clearer the image, the better."
"Alright…" I directed my mind back towards my magical energies and urged them to move. As it was my second time, my mana felt less weighty and more susceptible to manipulation.

Honing myself in on the concept of fire, I envisioned a lighter, specifically one of the Z*ppo types I had back home. The image came to me with surprising ease. Both the metallic object and the flickering, bright flame it produced were crystal clear.

The flint within the lighter could create a spark, which in turn would ignite the oil it released to create a steady flame.

"Rgghhh…"

A small groan escaped my lips as I focused my mana and guided it through my arm. The slightest bit of my magical energy drained from the tip of my index finger and blossomed into a flame.

"Woah…" I couldn't help but gasp in wonder. Holy shit. That's fuckin' awesome.

My skills were the very definition of shabby, but, I paid it no mind. I was too preoccupied by the fact that my finger was emitting fire to care. Casting one's first spell was an epic act that would drive any man to a state of excitement. And though they might have seemed it, my actions were not even the slightest bit childish. Creating a flame at one's fingertip was too great a fascination to be bound by the concepts of age and maturity.

"Very good. I see that there is reason they say demons make for splendid mages after all."
"Oh, that's a thing?" I gave Lefi an idle reply as I turned the flame on and off over and over.

A couple sparks would fly through the air every single time the flame ignited, likely because the image I had in mind was that of a Zipp* lighter. I wasn't all that enthusiastic about the excessive realism, but I didn't mind it too much because the sparks were aesthetically appealing in their own right.

"Indeed. Most would be unable to manipulate their mana to such an extent the moment after their magical circuits are forcibly wrenched open. That is a trait that you can thank your race for."

Huh. Neat. I picked up magecraft much more easily than I really had the right to. Even I was expecting it to take a lot more effort and time.

"It is because demons are creatures originally born of magical particles," explained Lefi. "It only makes sense for your body to have been constructed such that you have a strong affinity for the manipulation of mana."

Her explanation made total sense. There couldn't have been any other reason for someone like me to be able to pick up on magic so easily given that my old world had been completely devoid of it.

Though I was interested in Lefi's justifications, my attention was still too heavily focused on the flame floating right above my fingertip for me to provide much of a response.

I wonder if I can adjust its strength…

According to the dragon girl, the most important thing was the image I had in my mind, so I promptly began imagining a flamethrower. I played a lot of FPS games prior to reincarnating and most of them had flamethrowers. They tended to be rather finicky and only really worked under certain scenarios, but I liked and used them quite often nonetheless. I wanted to make my fire magic work in much the same way, so I closed my eyes and carved out a mental image of the heat-based weapon.

"W-Woah! The heck!?" Violent roaring flames began spouting from the tip of my finger the moment I pictured them in my head. I immediately reacted and pulled my finger away from my face, but I wasn't quick enough to stop myself from getting blasted by a sudden heat wave. The flames flew so close to my face that I was sure they singed my bangs.

Shii, who'd been idling around nearby, began bouncing around in panic. Its body language was clearly saying "What the heck!?"

"W-What are you doing!? Stop pouring magical energy into the flame immediately!" Even Lefi was startled.
"H-How the hell am I supposed to do that!?"
"Cut off the flow of your mana! Do not allow it to cycle any further!"

The dragon breath began dying down as I suddenly began cycling my magical energy in the opposite direction to force it to a stop. It sputtered a few times like an engine that'd run out of gas, before finally coming to a stop a second or two after my mana finally stagnated.

Lefi, who'd backed off upon seeing the flame, heaved a sigh of relief as she returned to my side.

"That… was quite the shocking experience," she remarked.
"I-I know, right? Holy shit, my heart was beating so fast I thought it was going to burst out my chest."
"You must remember to take care in adjusting the output of your magical creations. As one that is naturally gifted with the magical arts, you will find that it is easy for you to accidentally produce an effect much grander than what you anticipated. You will only bring harm to yourself if you carelessly infuse your spells with as much magical energy as you can muster."
"Y-Yeah, my bad." I took her lesson to heart; I'd only just almost charred my own face black, after all.

Yeah uh… I think I'mma hold back on casting any more fire magic for now. I probably shouldn't play around with it until I at least kinda know my shit.

"I digress, as I believe I have taught you all you need to know for the time being. To reiterate, magic is, in essence, the power of your imagination. It is none other than your very own imagination that serves as the basis for casting spells, and thus, it is also your imagination that allows you to create your very own magical techniques. Many humans and demons misunderstand the nature of magic. They believe it to be centered around the aria, the chant. And they are incorrect." Lefi paused for a moment to take a breath. "Both a spell's chant and name exist only to reinforce one's image of it. They are but auxiliaries, unnecessary extras. You are a demon, a creature with the innate talent for magic. You need not ever chant lest you plan to cast a powerful spell that requires an absurd quantity of mana to activate. And even then, it may prove unnecessary. Never forget, the secret to magic is to have a vivid imagination. And that is all."

"A vivid imagination…? Alright, got it. My imagination's the whole reason I almost burned my face off, so I'll make sure I'm careful."
"That would be for the best." It seemed that Lefi was pretty much done with her lecture, so I asked her one of the questions that'd been on my mind throughout.
"So uh… do you think I can do anything other than just making flowers and lighting fires?"
"Though I now understand that you have an affinity for both earth magic and fire magic, I cannot say as to whether or not you will be able to use any of the other elements. You've little choice but to test them out for yourself."
"What other elements are there?"
"The four basic elements are earth, fire, water, and wind. These four classifications are, unfortunately, incomplete. They do not encompass all that there is to magic, and they are only described in the manner they are such that they are easy to comprehend. There are, of course, other elements as well. Some have been known to manipulate facets such as time, light, and darkness. There are many more out there, and that is why I cannot provide you a true answer. You must experiment to determine your capabilities."

***

I tried out several other elements under Lefi's supervision and concluded that I was proficient in both water and wind. I proved my affinity for the former by creating water at just the right temperature for a hot bath, and the latter by generating a warm breeze with just enough power to dry stuff out. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get any other elements to work. I assumed that meant I simply didn't have the affinity for them, but Lefi told me I was mistaken. It was possible that I had simply yet to awaken to them.

I wasn't able to do much with wind magic other than just change up the intensity. I could function as a pretty decent hair dryer, but that was pretty much it. It was more like I had an affinity for hair dryer magic than I did true wind magic. Water, on other hand, proved much more promising.

"Could you perhaps manipulate your spells such that they are less bizarre…?"
"I can't really help it. This is just how it all ends up coming out. I really can't imagine any of this working any other way."

Trying out a bunch of random stuff allowed me to learn that magic was indeed about one's imagination, but you couldn't just picture anything and have it work. You had to have a really strong image of what you were trying to do or it would just end up as a flop.

I found it easiest to actually get stuff to work when I used magic to make things I was used to and could easily picture. That was why all my spells ended up creating things I was exposed to in my everyday life.

My imagination was rather lackluster, and my memory apparently wasn't that great either, as I couldn't get my wind magic to do anything gamey. It was a shame, but neither my wind nor earth magics proved too useful. Fortunately, water was different. I could actually get it to kind of do what I wanted it to, likely because my affinity with it was just that much higher. I had a pretty good starting point, so I doubled down on water magic and began practicing it.

A minor bit of training ended up being enough for me to get good enough at it to create a dragon made out of water. To be specific, it was a dragon made out of warm cozy bathwater, but still, it was a dragon nonetheless.

"What are you doing now?" Lefi narrowed her gaze as she watched me grab the bathing set I just purchased with DP. I filled the wooden bucket with warm water before moving my fingers up above my head. I cast another spell and turned my finger into what was effectively a showerhead.
"Nothing special. I just thought it might be nice to wash my hair." I wet my hair and began shampooing myself as I replied.

Shii began absorbing the soapy water as I rinsed it off my head. The slime was gulping it down, bubbles and all, as if it were enjoying a sort of snack. I was glad that my newfound pet was making everything so convenient for me, but I was starting to worry for its health. Though I knew very little about slime biology, I somehow doubted that downing shampoo would be good for the tiny blue critter.

I mean, Shii looked pretty happy eating garbage and whatnot, so I guess it'll probably be fine… Probably.

I wasn't too sure everything would go well, but I decided to use magic to blowdry my hair after finishing a first pass with a towel.

Awwww yeeeah. That feels hella good. The fact that I didn't actually get to bathe yesterday was bothering me, so this is great.

"…"

"What?"
"I would like for you to do that to my hair as well. Would you mind?"
"Well, I guess I might as well. You teaching me magic is pretty much the only reason I can pull this off, after all."
"My intention was not for you to learn magic so that you would be able to bathe yourself…"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Enough sass. Get your head over here."

Lefi was clearly exasperated, but she complied, so I ending giving her hair a thorough wash.

Before I realized, I had become the guardian of a dungeon, a Demon Lord. I was suddenly in a dangerous world with giant monsters loitering around, fighting for their existence, so I thought to go about developing the dungeon in order to not die but —- for some reason I was having quite the good time…. How did it turn out like this?

The protagonist, Yuki, having to live in that world now, uses his bold and sharp senses and spends time with a supreme dragon girl and a vampire girl; Sometimes laughing, sometimes being angry, passing days doing what he likes.

I sincerely welcome you all to my humble haven. I thank you for your time and effort in checking out my work. Words alone, can't express my deep gratitude and appreciation. From the bottom of my heart, once again I say, welcome!

The concept and perception of fantasy is beyond mere imagination or un-achievable reality. Some consider the nature of fantasy as an expression or narration of perceptual shaping of reality while others consider it, twisted imagination. To each one, his/her own power of discernment. 

But, no matter your point of view, you must know this. All forms of fantasy and magical realism, are not what they are thought or believed them to be. 

The inner eye is needed to see the true nature of fantasy and magical realism.   

The reason why some minds remember the details of the past while others can only recollect fragments of the past. There's only a fine line between reality and imagination. Between actuality and illusion. 

The insight into this, I will leave with the discerning minds of you, the readers, to determine. 

This very tale, was passed down to me through my ancestral generations. The actuality of this tale should be percieved from the point of imagination, in order to maintain the fine line. After many years of solitude, I've decided to share this tale with you. I believe it's time for you to know what truly happened. 

This work relates the tale of a young trueborn girl, Yao Ming. Born in the mortal realm as an ancient during the days of the Immortal Wars.

Her true story? 

Let's take the journey together, down the memory lane and find the answer to this elusive question. 

I, your humble author and the story-teller, will try my possible best to tell the tale as it truly happened. Nothing shall be removed and nothing shall be added. This, I can assure you.

Your importance as readers, can't be emphasized enough by me. You are the heart and soul of everything I am, as an author. I deeply appreciate and applaud you all. 

Ascendancy is yours.

Please leave your comments, reviews, votes and other forms of encouragement and support.

Thanks and welcome.

Green, red, yellow, black and white. The five coloured rays combined into a gigantic vortex. Even though he felt no pain, but being in the centre of it, Ji Dong couldn't help but panic. Not being able to control one's fate, would make anyone uncomfortable, and if he really had been a 10-year-old, perhaps he would have already been scared to death.

Luckily, due to having the memories of his past life, after panicking for a short time, Ji Dong was able to quickly calm down. He also understood a little of psychology and he constantly gave his mind some hints. This life was a free one after all, after being reborn into the Five Elements continent, he was now being wrapped up by the lights of this unknown scroll, and the worst that could happen would be dead, but maybe he'll be able to reincarnate once more.

Apparently, the amount of time that had passed was merely a split second, even though it felt as if thousands of years had passed by. Suddenly, the feeling of realism, without any flights of fancy, closely followed on, whilst the five coloured light, that was wrapping around his body, slowly faded away.

Before Ji Dong could even react, a gust of incomparably scorching hot airflow surrounded his body momentarily. The blazing feeling had made Ji Dong believe that his body had released a burnt smell. In his chest, the two red and blue light rays seemed to be ignited by the blazing energy, causing the light rays to grow a little stronger. On Ji Dong's forehead, two half star crowns had appeared.

After absorbing the two crystal crowns earlier this afternoon, Ji Dong was able to faintly sense the tiny Bing and Ding double fire magical power. But now, he was able to clearly sense it. Under the guidance of the two magic powers in his chest, he felt that the Bing-fire and Ding-fire magic power around him was very pure. It was very bountiful to the extent that it even surpassed the amount of magic power that the two teachers Xia Tian and Qiu Tian had released while releasing their Yin-Yang crowns.

What is this place? Ji Dong was really surprised, he opened his eyes in the heating air which seemed like it was melting his body.

All he could see was fiery red, the air seemed to be distorted because of the high temperature. The frightening temperature was everywhere in the surrounding. In the distorted air Ji Dong strongly exhaled a breath of relief, the only thing he could think of was the word lucky.

Unexpectedly in front of him was a gigantic magma lake. And from where he stood, it was less than a meter away. The lake was so huge that it seemed to stretch beyond the horizon, it was like a flaming sea. This place seemed to be more like a gigantic karst cave, but a boundless karst cave that is.

The area where Ji Dong was standing, was right at the edge of the magma lake. He was standing on a depressed part of a wall-like cliff, and even though he was about 100 meters above the magma, the scorching temperature made him feel as if he was going to melt at any second. The air was far too hot, so hot that it made breathing difficult. The school uniform on his body was releasing a stronger and stronger smell which indicated that it was burnt, and even his hair and brows were curling a little.

What exactly was that picture scroll? Why did he find himself in a fiery infernal after opening it? At this moment, at Ji Dong's back was a rock wall, and in the front of him, a magma lake, it could be said that he was in a situation where he could hardly move a step. And the faint Bing and Ding magical powers around his chest became especially distinct at this point. There was simply no need to sense it deliberately, because the Bing fire elements and Ding fire elements would enter his body automatically. Of course, that was a corrosive invasion, with his current cultivation of a level 1 Apprentice, it was simply not enough to absorb these insanely pure and extremely bountiful energies.

Ji Dong could vaguely tell, that if he himself was not of the fire attribute and in addition to that, a level 1 double-fire apprentice, his body probably wouldn't be able to endure this long. But even like this, he could feel that his body was burning up, it would not take long until he was roasted by the steaming hot air rising up from the magma below, and until he became completely dried up.

Ji Dong was someone that would never regret his own actions, but now he really wanted to know how such a thing could happen. At the same time he also felt a little sad, just when he thought that he would restart, and was finally able to get along with his new identity, such a thing was destined to happen.

Just then, a strong aroma assailed his nostrils; it was a mixture of fruit and wine mixture, pervading around his body. Ji Dong discovered that his hands were still firmly clasping the cocktail he mixed for Yang Bing Tian. Unfortunately, the cocktail was rapidly evaporating under the extreme temperature; more than half of cocktail had already evaporated and turned into mist, and this resulted in the strong aroma that he could smell.
With a self-deprecating smile, Ji Dong raised the wine glass to his eye-level and thought that no matter what, if he could drink a glass of fine wine, that he mixed himself before dying wasn't too bad.

Just when he was about to drink the glass of wine in one gulp, suddenly, a strange scene appeared. A dull red light fell on his face, Ji Dong felt that his body was seemingly lightened, the hot current that nearly roasted him into a dried man suddenly disappeared, and he could not even sense the existence of Bing and Ding elements with his own magical powers.

What was even more bizarre was, originally from the glass that was still in his hands, half of the glass of wine had evaporated but now it had disappeared without a trace as if it had been swept away by that red light.

It can't be, right? Am I not even allowed to have the final pleasure of drinking before death? Ji Dong was angry, and he turned around to discover the surrounding of the depressed ground was seemingly shrouded with a layer of gauze-like red glow. This light which seemed as thin as a cicada's wings had completely separated him from the temperature of the outside, which could no longer affect him. Without the roasting high temperature, Ji Dong's brain was more clear. He stared at the red light attentively, and he was overwhelmed by the sight.

Ji Dong would never forget the things he saw at this moment for his entire life, within the bubbling magma -who knew how high its temperature was- a gigantic pillar of magma erupted, and the eruption continued until it had reached the height of his body and stopped 20 meters away before him. In the summit of the column of flame, a fair and delicate hand unexpectedly reached out from within, the tender and slender fingers were like delicate scallions, the skin had the white lustre of icy snow. It became a distinct contrast with the surrounding blazing magmatic flames.

Looking at this hand, Ji Dong thought of a kind of food- almond junket, the fairness and delicateness seemed like water would drip anytime. Following that, was a smooth and round jade-like arm, the tone of the arm was exactly the same as the hands. Even with the pickiness of Ji Dong, he could not find a single flaw. He saw the arm lightly swaying in the air and it made a motion of grabbing. Immediately afterwards, a small orb appeared on her palm. The orb became golden-red. As Ji Dong saw the colour he immediately realized something, wasn't that the cocktail he mixed? And judging from its size, it was not just his own remaining half, even the previously evaporated parts seemed to have condensed into this tiny orb.

The arm within the magma rose, gradually revealing its owner's body – a maiden. Then, she slowly rose from within the column of fire, appearing on the utmost summit. The liquid magma became a very small platform that was supporting her body.

Ji Dong became completely stunned when he saw the maiden. In his previous world, Ji Dong was a virgin until the very last moment of his life. However, that was absolutely not because he didn't like women nor was it because of any physiological problem, but due to his stubbornness in pursuing absurd perfection. He was a typical perfectionist. It was also due to this seeking of perfection, that he was able to achieve such a magnificent result in the circles of liquor. It was also because of this, that he never found the perfect woman that he admired even though he had seen countless beauties.

Never in a million years, would Ji Dong have thought that the perfect woman that he was seeking for so long in his previous life would unexpectedly appear after arriving in this world of Five Elements Continent, with the body of a 10-year-old child. Yes, besides perfect, he was really unable to think of any other description to describe the things he saw before his eyes.

A maiden appeared on top of the magma column, she seemed to be about 18 or 19 years old, her fiery red hair was leisurely hanging on her back. It was long enough to cover her hip. She was delicate to the extent that there was nothing you could nitpick on, even the best and the most skilful sculptor could not sculpt her. The perfect proportions of her body completely corresponded with the golden ratio, there wasn't the slightest trace of excess flesh, and on top of that, there wasn't a single flaw. She had a pair of pitch-black large eyes, whose quick-witted gaze seemed as if they could penetrate one's heart. From top to toe, only the three female's most important parts were covered by three portions of flames, the skin that was exposed was exactly the same as her arm that was initially exposed -crystal-like, soft and delicate.

This was a godly masterpiece! Originally Ji Dong didn't believe in gods, but right at this moment he was firmly convinced that God existed, who except a god could make such a perfect body? The second he saw the maiden, Ji Dong believed that he has already fallen in love with her, whatsoever element in the surrounding could not stop his adulation of perfection.

Before, Ji Dong only heard about beauties that resemble a lotus breaking from the surface of the water. But the maiden before his eyes was like a red lotus suddenly appearing from the surface of magma. And the process of her appearance was stunning. The moment he saw her, Ji Dong's gazed stupefied.

The maiden curiously looked at the golden red orb that was kneaded into her hands, she brought it up to her nose and carefully sniffed it, she then gently sucked it, and the golden red liquor turned into a stream of water and soundlessly entered her mouth.

Looking at the tender pinkish lips as they opened and closed, Ji Dong felt the heat on his nose; it was unexpectedly a shameless nosebleed. Now he had only one thought: if he could only bring himself to kiss her lips, it would be a pleasure even if he would die immediately. Just like how he would taste the excellent millennium wine regardless of everything, in his previous life, he would die without regrets.

"Hm...", the maiden's mouth emitted a soft hum, her big black eyes with long eyelashes slowly closed, it was unspeakably charming, two rosy cheeks appeared on her fair, delicate face, she appeared to be enjoying it exceedingly.

"Can you tell me what this is?", the maiden's voice echoed in the air, seemingly appearing from all sides. Unfortunately, Ji Dong did not see her open her mouth.

"This is a kind of liquor.", Ji Dong subconsciously answered. However, the maiden's voice roused him from the enchantment. Although his eyes looked as if he was still unwilling to wake up from the enchantment, his mind was already very sober, "What is this place?"

The maiden did not answer his question, but slowly opened her eyes and wrinkled her cute tiny nose, "No, I already drank liquor made by you humans. Although it was good, it didn't taste like this. Let me think about it, hm. This liquor has a flavour of oranges of the human world, the flavour of almond, of lemons, and two other flavours that I couldn't tell, maybe because I have not tasted them before. I can remember the flavours of all the things I have once eaten"

Ji Dong asked in surprise, "Are you not human?"

The maiden slightly smiled and cupped some of the magma underneath her, allowing that terrifying liquid of high temperature to leak from the gap between her fingers, "Do you think a human can do this? You have not answered my question, what was it that I drank just now?"

Ji Dong took a deep breath to pacify his surging feelings, "It was real liquor, but it was a kind of cocktail mixed by me. It is normal that you haven't drunk this before, because, in the world of humans, I am the only person that can make such liquor. Do you want to know its name?"

The maiden eagerly nodded, "Of course."

The inferiority in his heart that came from seeing the perfect maiden vanished. When Ji Dong started to talk about liquor, confidence reappeared within his pupils, "It is called Midnight Sunshine, it contains 4/10 pure vodka, 2/10 Cointreau, 2/10 Apricot Brandy, 1/10 red pomegranate starch paste and 1/10 lemon juice. It was mixed using a special technique. The taste which you couldn't tell might be the vodka and the red pomegranate starch paste. At the beginning of the modulation of it, this Midnight Sunshine should be black, golden red and bloody red. Because these three colours signify a night of evilness, and also the gracefulness and warmth of the sunshine. But afterwards, I thought that this sort of colour layering didn't make sense. A colour can never represent one's heart forever, that's why I used a special technique to combine the three colours together. Keeping most of the golden red colour, thus brand new midnight sunshine was made. I hope that the person who drinks it could feel a thread of warmth in his or her lonely heart. Liquor has emotions, only by being able to let the person tasting it feel the bartender's feelings, is a glass worthy to be called a true cocktail. That is why what I mixed was not liquor, but feelings."

"The midnight sunshine, is a beauty no living thing can hope to rival, which makes one infatuate, makes one bewildered, and also makes one depressed. If you were able to experience these three feelings and then taste the warmth within, then my glass of liquor has found its owner."

Mixing cocktails at a level beyond anyone else in the world, a sommelier, the one known as the liquor god Li Jie Dong. He died at the age of thirty in order to taste the recently excavated wine from the Han Dynasty.

When he awoke, he found himself in the world of the Five Element Continents as Ji Dong the little beggar. In this place, there was a special occupation known as the Yin Yang Spiritual Masters who control the 10 elements of the sexagenary cycle. These bizarre 10 elemental techniques could make anyone gasp in amazement. Each and every Yin Yang Spiritual Master has their own Ying Yang crown that is condensed by one’s own attribute.

Due to the abundant love, the people held for their wine and liquor, bartenders gradually gathered together to form a guild. This guild is named the Bartender Guild and is respected by all.

"Ping!"
It was as if he had fallen from a great height. Fang Yuan trembled and open his eyes.
"Life is but a dream. It's a good thing that I'm self aware…"
Fang Yuan did a visual sweep of his surroundings. Darkness. Rocks. It looked like the bottom of a deep gorge. He could not help but laugh.
"To think that after entering my dream this time, I could become self aware immediately!"
Usually, when people entered their dream world, it was extremely difficult for them to become self aware. Even if they did, it remained a one-off thing. The fact that Fang Yuan was able to do so was testament to his massive improvement in skill.
"Hmm… this is…"
Fang Yuan saw a puddle of blood and mud next to him, and faraway shouts coming from the cliff above. Fang Yuan looked at his own body, and understood.
"Isn't this still the world from before? Even following the point in time?"
Due to him having tested the passage of time, Fang Yuan was relaxed and ignored the mess beside him. He kneeled with his legs folded beneath him, and considered his current situation.
"Usually when people dream, the experience is a bizarre and unpredictable one. It is the same for novice dreamers. But I am different! My first dream world is so stable! The world actually has an intact system in place?"
This world was a product of imagination, and even carried with it a sense of absurdity. But on the surface, it was able to run by itself and had natural laws in working order. This was a huge improvement! 
According to Master Wenxin's writing on the Jade Scroll, for an average dreamer to create a relatively complete dream world, it would take a few years' worth of hard work!
"This… it is either I'm prodigious, or it is because Master had already given me some pointers regarding cultivation in the dream world."
"Still, an imagined world is ultimately a make-believe one. All the so-called power systems and paths to immortality are bullshit! No one in Qinghe County would fall for it, not even the low level martial artists of the 3 Prosperous Gates!"
Since everything was an illusion, how would there be any sign of realness?
Fang Yuan reminisced the exercises devised by the Green Cloud House, and found it very amusing.
"As the dream world gradually increases in realism, the rules also have to mirror those in reality… this is a big project. To me, this is a fantasy!"
Fang Yuan tilted his head to one side. He was no longer conflicted. He looked around him before climbing upwards, tracing an opening in the wall.
The slopes were steep and the wind cut like knives. Fortunately, big and thick vines lined the rock walls. They had weathered the elements and were as strong as metal chains. They supported Fang Yuan's weight easily.
"Whew…"
When Fang Yuan had scaled the cliff, he huffed and immediately shook his head.
"Although i can't change the look of the world, or increase my level of cultivation, there is no doubt that I 'exist'. This is my dream world, I am the owner. Even though my authority is severely limited and I have to refresh my state of being, I can sustain my own existence!"
"Now… I should try to influence my surroundings, then finally change the world!"
"That damned method of breath training. I still need to use it for practice!"
It was easy to attempt immortal cultivation in the World of Qianyuan. One simply had to be in good physical shape, and use their celestial blood to absorb the spiritual energy. In this way, one could surely advance and succeed in building a solid training foundation.
Initially when his real self was lost, the setting Fang Yuan gave himself was 'Trash Celestial Meridian', without any ability to sense spirit energy.
But now?
Following his thoughts, a gust of wind blew, and small strands of refreshing aura were pulled towards him, guided into his body through the back of his neck, and straight into the spine.
'Whew…."
After a while, Fang Yuan open his eyes and exhaled a foggy breath.
"Spirit Energy Training Stage Tier 1, complete? Why does it feel so similar to the 12 Golden Gates? Also, it has absorbed much of my knowledge, and memories of the other world…"
"Not sure how good the settings that I had given myself are. Can I be compared to the prodigies?"
Fang Yuan was among the Green Cloud Mountains, where the House was. The place had an abundance of spiritual energy.
After he had completed his Qi Refinement, Fang Yuan could not bear to leave. He let himself enter a meditative state again.
"Huff"
A slight breeze. A white mist materialised and gathered as it floated towards Fang Yuan.
The so-called 13 Tiers of Qi Refinement were child's play to him.
Level 2!
Level 3!
Level 4!
In a flash, Fang Yuan had advanced five tiers, and had reached the Middle Stage of Qi Refinement.
"This seems pretty average to me?"
Fang Yuan rubbed his arm, speechless.
"It seems like in my subconsciousness, the magic of the immortal cultivators in this world does not have a spectacular effect on physical growth. The more important things are the royally issued spiritual talisman, spiritual curse and magical weapon!"
"Senior Liu, it's here!"
Suddenly, lights flashed from above. A group of people rode past on a flying object shaped like a giant leaf. They were the jerks from atop the cliffs.
They had spied Fang Yuan as well, and were turning red with rage.
"This Fang Yuan is the one who killed the Young Marquis. You have to help us deal with him!"
"Senior Liu, do be careful. This person is very strange. He had lost an arm previously, and I have no idea how he recovered. What a monster!"
"Even if this person survives a fall down the cliff, and gives off weird vibes, who cares? Our senior Liu Zhou is a gifted individual who has already completed his Qi Refinement and is very close to accomplishing the Demonic Wind Technique. With his celestial body and a 397th Continent Immortal Ranking, his future is limitless!"
_________
"Huff"
The magic artifact fell onto the group. From above came a suave looking youth with sharp features. His green robes fitted him very nicely and seemed to emit a soft glow.
He had a princely air about him, which used to arouse a sense of inferiority in Fang Yuan. However, Fang Yuan was perfectly composed this time. He seemed totally uninterested.
"You are Fang Yuan? I am Liu Zhou! My peers have accused you of killing the Little Marquis of Hanhai by pushing him off the cliff. All that remains of him is a bloody mess. Do you plead guilty?"
The youth frowned upon seeing Fang Yuan. He had noticed that this bum was somewhat different today.
Especially after he had climbed up from the bottom of the cliff and seen the remains of the Little Marquis. Fang Yuan was not in the least remorseful, which made him all the more unreadable.
"Does it matter whether I plead guilty or not?"
Fang Yuan laughed. He found this very interesting indeed.
'Everything in my dream is in fact a reflection of what is going on in my subconsciousness. In other words, to conquer the dream world,… I have to retract my base emotions, be in control of my true self and cultivate my mind?'
"You…"
Liu Zhou narrowed his eyes. He suddenly realised that Fang Yuan was a real threat.
He could not see any hint of fear on Fang Yuan's face. This was impossible.
A normal youth would give off uneasy vibes after being caught doing something unpleasant. When threatened with the laws, they would break in the end.
The youth before him was an exception. He maintained a cool look, as if the people surrounding him were insignificant bugs, as if he was the master of the sect!
That's right! It was exactly this feeling!
Liu Zhou's eyes gleamed. His hatred for Fan Yuan was increasing by the second.
"How dare you! Surrender yourself!"
As he roared, a jade sword flew out from his sleeves. The magical artifact slithered through the air like a snake and gave off a lethal glow.
"Magic artifact!"
"A real magic artifact! A flying sword!"
A few low level disciples exclaimed in amazement. It was entirely unexpected that their Senior Liu would use such a valuable item against a common wastrel like Fang Yuan.
"Hmm? This man intends to kill?!"
Fang Yuan was feeling the effects of the magic artifact.
He felt the weight of mountains crashing down on him, and the malevolent aura of the flying sword calling out for his blood. Still, he could not resist smiling coldly.
"He feels that I have slighted him and his ego is hurt?"
Fang Yuan felt a murderous rage coming.
If Fang Yuan had been in the Qinghe County of the real world, he might have held back. However, at this moment, he laughed out loud.
"You are as lowly as an ant, and yet you dare to come at me with the intent to kill. It seems like the Green Cloud House will be awash in blood because of you people!"
The art of cultivation required a mastery of the mind.
At this point, it did not matter if he went against the whole world and the immortal realm. It was but a dream!
"There are too many restrictions in the real world. The martial artist will have their souls clouded. How can we get around this?"
Fang Yuan had a sudden revelation.
"In the dream world, everything is up to me. I can kill and burn as I wish. If I choose to do good, I could become the Buddha of a thousand households. If I choose to commit evil, I could bring about the end of the world. This is the best place to cultivate one's heart!"
Fang Yuan had resolved his thoughts, and charged at Liu Zhou without any more hesitation.
"Hmph! Dumbass!"
Liu Zhou's features twisted into a sneer as Fang Yuan pounced towards him.
How could a mere mortal deal with someone who had already completed his Qi Refinement, and had magic artifacts and spiritual talismans at his disposal?
"Jade sword! Kill!"
Liu Zhou pointed at Fang Yuan, and the flying sword shot towards Fang Yuan at a ferocious speed, leaving a green trail of light in its wake. It had pierced through Fang Yuan's chest.
"Poof!"
A hole was punched into Fang Yuan's chest amidst a cloud of blood and flesh.
But Fang Yuan did not even creased his brows. He had full control of senses and felt pain at only the lowest degree. He went up to Liu Zhou.
"The Black Sand Eagle Palm!"
"Ping!"
Liu Zhou flew backwards after receiving a blow from Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan paused, a curious look on his face.
"You… you devil!"
Liu Zhou climbed to his feet painfully and looked down at his shimmering robes. He was actually afraid.
"What the hell are you?"
Even the cultivators of the Golden Pill Stage would not have escaped unscathed if they had a hole punched into their chest.
Liu Zhou no longer saw Fang Yuan as a mere disciple. To him, Fang Yuan was now a terrible monster that would not die!
"A defensive magical equipment?"
Fang Yuan looked at his right hand and muttered to himself.
"To think that I actually have such a setting. I was really looking for trouble…"
As Fang Yuan sighed, he walked to Liu Zhou's side.
"Ahh… stay away from me!"
Liu Zhou backed away quickly from the vile man who was immune to spiritual items and magic. He was after all more frightened to see a spiritual aura emanate from Fang Yuan's hand.
"Magical artifacts have limits too!"
Fang Yuan ignored the havoc that the flying sword was wrecking. It did not matter how many times the sword cut into him for he could recover instantaneously. He focused at the task at hand instead, landing continuous punches on Liu Zhou's magical robes.
"Click"
Finally, Liu Zhou's magical robes were torn apart as he looked on with absolute terror. Fang Yuan immediately took the opportunity to smash in his head.


This is the story of a boy who lived a secluded life in the mountains, tending his farm, rearing his fish, and dreaming his dreams. Eh? Did I suddenly conquer all worlds and become the big boss? Or am I still in a dream?

"You don't have to be thankful. Say, since you've got your revenge, what are your plans for the future?" Chen Jin asked.
The future? Mu Yunhua thought about it for a moment. Confusion flashed across her face and she shook her head, "I don't know, I haven't thought about the future."
She had originally thought that it would take at least a few hundred years to fulfill her vendetta against the Selains and exhausting an infinite amount of energy in the process. She might even die before realizing her wish.
She felt that she was lucky enough to be able to take revenge in her lifetime.
She had never imagined that it was so easy to realize her wish with Jin's help.
It was so easy that her heart felt somewhat empty, she did not know what to do next.
"If you don't have any plans, then continue to work for me according to our previous agreement, and strive to occupy more galaxies and planets."
"After annexing the Sela civilization, I plan to take a break for a while."
Mu Yunhua wore a weary expression, "After all these years, I'm a little tired, let me take a break."
"Well, you really should have a good rest for a while." Chen Jin said.
...
After the central mother galaxy of the Sela civilization issued a signal of surrender.
For the next six months, most of the Sela colonial galaxies chose to give up on their resistance and joined the Haierfa civilization.
The small number of stubborn resistors who chose to hide out in dangerous terrain to carry out their resistance, even under the threat of death, soon met with attacks from a powerful interstellar warship. They had no choice but to yield after paying a heavy price.
Thus, such a civilization with great wisdom and knowledge was in the control of a group of human survival forces.
From one galaxy, the strength of mankind suddenly swelled by a thousand times in an instant.
As a classic example of counterattack, it could be described as a model of inspiration.
Moreover, the Selains (Crystal Brainers) were extremely valuable, and their potential was huge. Except for their appearance, which was rather ugly, they scored well in other aspects.
For example, they had powerful learning abilities. They could achieve rapid dissemination and absorption of knowledge through the use of their brain wave signals.
They belonged to a race where everyone was an elite.
Their ability to innovate was not bad either.
Also, because their treacherous, cunning, and overly clever characters were engraved in the soul of many Crystal Brainers, they were very fond of dallying in power plays and conspiracies.
So in theory, humans couldn't defeat the Crystal Brainers.
In the end, it was because Chen Jin had provided external assistance by giving them a special shortcut, that the human survivors led by Mu Yunhua could finally realize their dreams. They trampled a powerful and wise civilization under their feet, and all the Crystal Brainers became slaves.
...
Very quickly.
Two years passed.
The power of the Sela civilization had been "digested" by the human forces.
Chen Jin, who had been standing behind the scenes and investing his resources into the war, had also been rewarded.
The best portions of the spoils seized by Mu Yunhua and her forces were put on the Black Emperor and transported back to Haierfa.
This included nearly all of the information on the Crystal Brainers' science and technologies.
Including a rich variety of special mineral resources.
And a batch of up to ten million "brain crystals" - that's right, it was that special crystal that grew at the backs of the brains of the Crystal Brainers. Those crystals were very valuable.
After years of research, Alice believed that brain crystal could even become a strategic resource and develop very important functions.
Besides sending and storing brain wave signals, the brain crystal had two other magical functions.
First, it could increase the realism of virtual games from the original 78% to more than 95% in an instant... it could even possibly increase the realism by up to 99%.
The original realism of the gaming experience was like a bottleneck that simply could not be broken through (as it was reflected in the human brain), experienced a qualitative improvement.
This principle behind this phenomenon had not been fully understood by Alice, but there was no doubt that the brain crystal could bring about a qualitative evolution to the virtual games that had not seen much change in the past hundred years or more.
The sense of immersion was better.
The gaming experience was more realistic.
It could be said that it had brought immensely good news to the vast number of veteran gamers.
"If the new generation of game helmets that are embedded with the 'brain crystal' was integrated with the virtual game Galaxy Era 2.0; the realism of the game would become infinitely life-like. It will set the game on fire with an all-new vitality, attracting at least billions of players."
"A better game experience and a greater number of players would allow the Galaxy Era 2.0 to analyze the celestial powers and new laws of cultivation at double the speed; the efficiency of the game in analyzing these subjects will be doubled too."
Besides this, after the brain crystals were brought to earth, it was discovered that due to its magical brain wave amplification effect, practitioners could obtain a 30% to 50% improvement in their cultivation efficiency by using the "power amplification" function of the brain crystal during meditation and cultivation processes.
If it was used for the arrangement and deployment of certain spell formations, the formations could be maintained for twice the original amount of time using the same amount of mental power.
These additional accomplishments were extremely impressive.
Its existence was akin to that of a magical artifact.
There were, of course, some magic weapons or special jades and stones that also had the effect of boosting one's cultivation. But they were generally very expensive and their boosting effect was relatively average.
Magical items that could produce such obvious results like the brain crystal were very rare.
More importantly, after Mu Yunhua gained control of the entire Sela civilization, Chen Jin proposed an additional requirement of "handing over 100 million brain crystals" every year. This was not an enormous task because there were over a few hundred million Crystal Brainers who died of natural causes every year. Their brain crystals could be retrieved after death.
Of course, the brain crystal was very important to the Crystal Brainers. It was said to be the home of the soul. After death, the crystal should be properly laid to rest for the soul to ascend into the kingdom of heaven. If it was taken away, there would be no chance for the departed soul to enter the kingdom of heaven, it could only fall into darkness.
Typically, the Crystal Brainers would never surrender their brain crystal even if they were faced with the threat of certain death (although they would also quickly die after the crystal was cut out). According to traditional thought, the brain crystal must be placed in a beautiful dream-like cathedral where it would form part of the tower made up of soul crystals.
However, after being relegated to the status of slaves, the Crystal Brainers had no choice.
If they resisted, they would be killed and their brain crystal taken away immediately.
If the number of brain crystals collected was insufficient, then the humans could only kill those who were disobedient or guilty of crimes, to make up the amount that needed to be handed over.
This seemed a little cruel.
It did not give people a good feeling.
Mu Yunhua also hesitated for several seconds. She felt that no matter how she looked at it, this was not a kind act. Instead, it was somewhat like farming. They would wait until the brain crystal was matured before cutting them out to be used.
"This is the rule of the world. The strong can do whatever they want and the weak are turned into feed. Besides, 100 million brain crystals per year are only equivalent to just a few thousandths of the Crystal Brainers. The harvest ratio is not high. And since they have been defeated in battle, they should have the awareness that they are the losers. If they still dare to resist, then all of them will be slaughtered. Then, the hundreds of billions of brain crystals would be sufficient!"
Using a few natural substitutes, which were only a very small minority, in exchange for the continuation of the entire population; the Crystal Brainers should know what was their choice.
"Ok."
Mu Yunhua did not say anything more and simply carried out this task.
In this way, Chen Jin had in his possession, this magical resource of the brain crystals.
As for the cost, it was almost zero. But by parking the crystals on earth, it could bring many benefits and advantages.
...
Earth.
During this period, millions of brain crystals had been moved out of the villa where Chen Jin lived and entered the possession of the Chen family.
So, after a mere few days, all of the Chen family's descendants and their hired high-ranking guest staff who had the qualities for cultivation used the brain crystals. Everyone's cultivation efficiency had been greatly improved.
A large number of brain crystals were also sent to two mysterious underground research facilities, one of which was the development unit responsible for the New Generation Virtual Reality Headset; the other was the mecha research facility, which was developing a bio-mecha with the ability for self-cultivation.
That's right.
The Chen family's powerful technological strength could develop a semi-mechanical, semi-organic biological machine that similarly also had meridians, dantian (an area where one's spiritual Qi energy resides) and spiritual Qi circuits. Through the control of the biochip, these bio-mechas could cultivate themselves, just like the practitioners. By putting their spiritual strength to use, they could constantly transform this spiritual strength into a powerful combat force.
The secret code name for such a bio-mecha was "The Naga."
This project had been running in secret for more than ten years. The Chen family had invested countless resources into "The Naga." There had been many occasions where they saw no hope of success. But as long as it was theoretically plausible, as long as prospects were great, it was necessary to persist and they should continue to invest resources and time into it.
After 99 failures, there would surely be a success.
Hard work always paid off. Shortly after the success of the biochip, the bio-mecha, "Naga," that had received heavy attention by the Chen family achieved one of its initial stages of success.
A few days after the brain crystals sent by Chen Jin were received by the facility, fatal issues, such as insufficient strength of nerve signals and weak control functions, were easily resolved due to the magical amplification effect of the brain waves by the brain crystal.
The "Naga" bio-mecha was up to five meters tall and weighed more than five tons. They could hope that the design would be finalized and mass-production could begin within one or two years.
Regarding the combat power of this type of bio-mecha, the "Naga" was equipped with the terrifying computing power of the biochip and the meridian network that had experienced the ultimate optimization by supercomputers. As long as it had cultivated itself for about half a year and matched with various high-tech weapons, it could face-off against a practitioner from the Jiedan Order in a battle.
If the cultivation period lasted up to one year, three years, or five years, it would have the ability to battle against practitioners from the Yuanying order, the Jushen order and even the Shenguang order respectively.
The potential of bio-mecha was vast.
If the Chen family could have hundreds or even thousands of bio-mecha units in the future to form a fighting force, they would have a role to play on Earth, which was under the pressure of countless Protoss.
But... time.
No matter how many aces they had up their sleeves, the one thing that the Chen family needed the most was still precious time.
"Three years, as long as the Chen family can have three more years, we'll be more or less ready."
Chen Jin had secretly calculated and found that after three years or so, the Chen family would have the power for a showdown.
Because a breakthrough was recently achieved in the "Sage Plan," which was another project that he most valued.
To be precise, it because of the genetic engineering sub-plan of the "Body Of A Sage." After the success of the biochip, this sub-plan had also begun pulling its weight and produced shocking results.
The purpose of the plan, "Body Of A Sage" was to improve a human's natural aptitude for cultivation. The fundamental principle was to transform the human body and improve people's natural aptitude by altering and adjusting human genes. This would allow those humans who were useless in cultivation or who only had mediocre talents to morph into talents and geniuses, maybe even the best genius in the world.
In the past, the occurrence of Protoss who were naturally more suitable for cultivation, the probability of the birth of cultivation geniuses was about one in 10,000.
For humans, which were a race not particularly suitable for cultivation, this probability was a pitiful one in a million.
There was a saying "nurture cannot beat nature." If one's natural aptitude was too terrible, no matter how hard one tried in life, there would be times when it was hard to catch up. The gap between one who was naturally talented and one who was not would get bigger and bigger. In the end, the one without natural talent would despair.
However, the Chen family's genetic engineering technology aimed to smooth out the inborn gaps in terms of talent. They wanted to achieve something that would go against the natural order.
Moreover, modifying genes was not easy. The process of injecting the evolutionary compound and changing human genes involved modifying many genes bit by bit. The process was divided into many stages. The more stages to go through, the more perfect the genes would become. One's natural aptitudes would then gradually tend to that of a genius.
In general, as long as a person went through five rounds of genetic evolution, he who originally had zero talent for cultivation could become someone who had a mediocre talent for cultivation.
And after another ten rounds of genetic evolution, one with only mediocre talents could become outstanding.
Only after yet another 20 rounds of genetic evolution, geniuses could be successfully nurtured and be completely reborn.
That meant that one would only need to bear with 35 rounds of evolution for the successful "manufacture" of someone who had no talent for cultivation into a genius.
As for this process, it was similar to the bodies who had participated in the biochip experiment. The process was accompanied by tremendous torture and unimaginable pain.
The combined mortality rate was close to 40%.
The overall success rate was less than 30%.
If the later stages of the evolution process were continuously improved and optimized, the risks involved would be significantly reduced and the success rate greatly improved.
Of course, the extent of pain that the participants had to go through would not be significantly reduced.
Moreover, the first case who had withstood 35 rounds of evolution and successfully transformed from an ordinary person into a cultivation genius, Sun Yang, had walked out of the facility amidst cheers from the scientists. After this, both divisions that made up the entire "Sage Plan" achieved successful breakthroughs.
But, there would be more upcoming work.
The entire "Sage Plan" could not be considered completely successful.... Unless there was an experimental body who had had a biochip implanted and completed 35 rounds of genetic evolution at the same time to obtain the natural aptitudes of a genius... Only when a body had completed both types of optimization to combine the results from the two processes could the genius that was born be called a Sage.
It was just that Su Jian and Sun Yang had both lost the courage to complete the other half of the plan after the endless torture that they had endured. They were very satisfied with the temporary results and had no yearning to become a so-called "Sage"... In other words, they had lost the guts to participate in the other half of the program to complete the entire plan.
Therefore, the remaining experiments would take about three years.
Chen Jin could only rest a portion of his hopes of enhancing the family's self-defense ability on the "Naga" bio-mecha... Moreover, it also only needed another three years or so before the first batch of naga bio-mechas could fully come into play and make their shocking debut.
But... unfortunately, time did not wait.
The more that you hope bad things would not happen, they would, more often than not, happen anyway.
On this very day!
The monitoring system fixed up by Chen Jin sent out the highest level of alarm - A Protoss family had decided to attack the Chen family.
And it was not just one Protoss clan, but three!
They were the Jinwu clan, who was the top family in terms of strength, the second-ranked Tonghuang clan, and the third-ranking Mugu clan. All of them wanted to devour the Chen family.
"The Jinwu clan provides asylum for the Chen family. Why do they suddenly want to make a move against us?" Chen Jin asked the smart brain of the intelligence system.
"Maximizing the benefits; 50% of the profits can no longer satisfy their appetites."
"And what about the Tonghuang and Mugu clans? Why would they join forces to deal with the Chen family?"
"The main reason is to limit the strength of the Jinwu clan. Because of the help from the Chen family in the past two years, the strength of the Jinwu clan has shown a vague tendency to grow to equal the combined strength of the two clans, so they can't sit still anymore and decided to take action to restrict the Jinwu clan."
"All right~"
Chen Jin took a deep breath. The Chen family's biggest crisis had arrived!


Through a mysterious portal, Chen Jin arrived at this strange place - a post-apocalyptic world where civilization had been destroyed. 

Consequently, he found -

A piece of metal scrap
A robot trash collector
A battleground
A city
A ton and more of gold
A copy of high-tech documents
A...
In short, Chen Jin found a planet.
