章節 1: Ding! Your plug-in has arrived.
Qingzhou, Fenghe Region.
Dalu Mountain.
Nine towering peaks stood in a continuous line, all reaching high into the clouds, presenting a majestic and magnificent sight.
On each of these peaks, there were luxurious palace complexes that extended endlessly.
In terms of grandeur, they surpassed ordinary imperial palaces by more than a few levels.
On the slope of one of the mountains, within a continuous estate.
"Who am I? Where am I?" A young boy with a youthful face opened his eyes in confusion.
Countless pieces of information were merging in his mind, causing him a splitting headache.
He couldn't help but pound his head, trying to alleviate the pain, but to no avail.
After a while, the information finally merged completely.
"My name is Jiang Heng? Is this Qingzhou?"
He sat up from the bed, his gaze becoming clear.
He looked around.
This was a simple and ancient room.
On one side of the room, there was a set of table and chairs, while on the other side, there was a somewhat worn-out mat, and he was sitting on the innermost bed.
"Indeed, have I crossed over?"
"Is this a fantasy world similar to ancient times?"
In his previous life, Jiang Heng was an ordinary office worker on the Water Blue Star, approaching thirty and still achieving nothing. Under the urgent pressure from his parents for marriage, he remained single.
His life was originally ordinary and boring.
Until one day, as he was walking down the street, he was sent flying more than ten meters by a red sports car that suddenly swerved onto the road.
After that, he completely lost consciousness.
And now, his consciousness had merged with a young boy named Jiang Heng in this world.
According to Jiang Heng's memories of this world.
This was a world where martial arts were supreme.
The strong could soar through the sky, catch stars and seize the moon, and were almost invincible.
Even ordinary people, with a little bit of training, were more formidable than the boxing champions of Jiang Heng's previous life.
The world's structure was also vastly different from his previous life's ancient times.
In this world, there were sects, dynasties, and holy places, but they coexisted harmoniously.
According to Jiang Heng's understanding.
Dynasties were subordinate to the holy places and were responsible for managing secular institutions.
Sects were like various corporate groups.
And the holy places, in fact, were equivalent to sects, but they transcended both and even directly controlled the dynasties. They only focused on cultivation and maintaining overall stability and harmony.
Jiang Heng was currently in one of the top sects in Qingzhou - the Dalu Sect.
In general.
To enter the Dalu Sect, there were three ways.
The first way was for young people with a clean background and high talent. They could directly become outer disciples, cultivate various martial arts of the Dalu Sect, and enjoy the sect's support.
The second way was for young people with a clean background but low talent. After passing an assessment, they could become attendants. They could become outer disciples only after advancing their martial arts skills.
The third way was for those with great strength who gained the sect's recognition and could become protectors of the sect.
And Jiang Heng belonged to the second category.
Attendants couldn't even be considered disciples; they were more like laborers within the sect.
Meals and lodging were provided, with two days off each month.
Furthermore, there was a chance to become an official disciple of the sect.
After organizing his thoughts, Jiang Heng couldn't help but give a bitter smile.
"It seems like I've entered a labor camp, and I don't even have a salary."
"I envy those with good talent. They become outer disciples upon entry and don't have to work. They only need to cultivate every day."
However, even as he mocked himself, he knew that having the opportunity to enter the sect was much better than resigning himself to an ordinary life.
Even as an attendant, countless young people competed to join.
All for the chance to become a martial artist!
It was his low talent that led to this.
Just then.
"Ding! The Potential Upgrade System has been activated!"
As a mechanical voice sounded, a strange piece of information also entered Jiang Heng's mind.
"A system?"
Jiang Heng was momentarily stunned but soon ecstatic!
In his previous life as a seasoned reader of online novels, he was no stranger to systems.
This was the so-called golden finger essential for transmigrators!
With a system, even a disabled person could rise to become the world's strongest!
As the information in his mind was digested, Jiang Heng also understood the functions of the system.
The Potential Upgrade System.
As the name suggested, it allowed the use of potential points to endlessly upgrade one's cultivation or martial techniques.
There were two sources of potential points.
The first came from cultivation.
The second came from battle.
"It seems like quite an ordinary system!"
Having seen various invincible systems in novels in his previous life, Jiang Heng felt that the system he had awakened to in this world was rather ordinary after he calmed down.
"However, having a cheat like this is already good enough. Who needs anything else!"
Jiang Heng got up from the bed, ready to try out the system's functions.
Standing in an empty space.
Jiang Heng began to carefully recall the foundational martial technique from his memories - the Primordial Genesis Art.
In this world, cultivation in the early stages involved purely refining the physical body.
The most important thing was eating!
The more one ate, the better the nutrition absorption, and the faster the cultivation progress.
And this martial technique.
Could maximize the efficiency of eating, with the effect of turning radishes into ginseng.
It was the top-tier foundational technique in this world, and it was the most widely circulated martial technique.
Young Jiang Heng from his previous life couldn't understand why the best technique was made public. But now, after integrating his memories from Water Blue Star, he understood it somewhat.
With the best foundational technique, people with high talent could stand out more easily, thereby attracting the attention of major sects and even holy places.
In any case, the mid to high-level martial power in this world was incredibly strong, and there was no need to worry about grassroots martial power causing chaos.
Moreover, even so, it didn't mean that everyone was a master.
Martial arts cultivation required talent, but it also required a vast amount of resources.
When ordinary families discovered that their children had talent, they might bankrupt themselves to support their cultivation or immediately send them to a sect.
But when they found their children had only average talent, most families, in order to make ends meet, would only encourage cultivation to a certain extent, treating it as a way to maintain good health.
So, in this world, the majority of civilians were still considered ordinary people.
Otherwise, Jiang Heng wouldn't have ended up as an attendant in the Dalu Sect.
After reviewing all the details of the Primordial Genesis Art in his mind, every movement, mental technique, and breathing method became clear to him.
Plus, with his body's instincts and countless times of practice in his memories.
Jiang Heng was confident.
After taking a deep breath, he began to practice.
"Swish!"
A punch was thrown, slicing through the air with a sharp whistle.
Then, his body turned, and he seemed to become more flexible, both arms extending backward in unison.
His body stretched and tightened intermittently.
His posture was bizarre but had a peculiar beauty.
His breathing varied in speed.
At the same time.
A series of notifications continuously echoed in his mind.
However, Jiang Heng, immersed in his practice, didn't have the energy to pay attention.
About a quarter of an hour later.
Jiang Heng stood upright after finishing his routine.
Only then did he open the system notification window and saw that the densely packed notification boxes filled the screen.
"Ding! During practice, gained 2 potential points!"
"Ding! During practice, gained 2 potential points!"
"Ding! During practice, gained 2 potential points!"
...
He then opened his personal panel.
[Host]: Jiang Heng.
[Cultivation]: Mortal Realm (383/1000).
[Primary Cultivation Technique]: [Primordial Genesis Art (Heaven Grade)] (Entry Level).
[Martial Arts Techniques]: None.
[Secret Techniques]: None.
[Potential Points]: 100.
Jiang Heng looked at his personal panel, deep in thought.
According to the cultivation realms in this world.
Before formally advancing in martial arts, it was called the Mortal Realm, which focused on refining the physical body and strengthening one's strength.
Generally speaking, the limit of the Mortal Realm was about 1000 pounds of strength.
And according to the test he had taken a few days ago, his strength was roughly four hundred pounds short of that.
The numbers matched up perfectly.
"So, in comparison, the cultivation value on the panel is roughly equivalent to 1 point being equivalent to 1 pound of strength?"
"Which means, with 100 potential points, I can increase my strength by 100 pounds?"
With this thought, Jiang Heng couldn't help but swallow his saliva, feeling excited.
"Add points! Increase cultivation by 100 points!"
Jiang Heng thought, and the system panel immediately changed.
At the same time.
He felt a surge of heat appear in his body out of thin air, merging into every inch of his flesh and blood.
His muscles all over his body subtly expanded, becoming more solid and resilient!
When he clenched his fist, he could clearly sense a significant increase in strength.
Looking at the progress of his cultivation, it had indeed changed to '483/1000'.
Jiang Heng couldn't help but smile.
"It seems like my guess was correct!"
"1 potential point can increase 1 point of cultivation, roughly equivalent to 1 pound of strength."
"Although I don't know if the ratio remains the same for the later realms, so far, the system's abilities have been incredibly strong!"
"I've only practiced once!"
"In just about fifteen minutes, I've gained an extra 100 pounds of strength!"
"If I practice for ten hours a day, I can probably gain 4,000 pounds!"
"Over a year, nearly 1.5 million pounds of strength!"
Jiang Heng couldn't help but take a deep breath, finally realizing the terrifying potential of the system.
Compared to his previous cultivation speed, it had increased by several thousand times!
Moreover.
According to the system's explanation in his mind.
There was no limit to how many potential points the system could obtain. With continuous practice, he could continuously gain potential points and improve his cultivation.
There were no bottlenecks!
