Chongming Island is one of the islands in the endless dark sea. It is more than 500 miles long from north to south and more than 300 miles wide from east to west, and is trapezoidal in shape. There is a high peak on the southeast side of the island, which is 800 meters high. It is named Chongming Peak. The peak is shrouded in clouds and mist and overgrown with trees.
The family living at the foot of the peak is the ruling family of Chongming Island - the Lu family.
There are about one million people living on Chongming Island, most of them are mortals. The Chongming Lu family is a family of immortals. Their ancestor is the Jindan Zhenren of Feiyu Sect. When his time is up, he returns to the secular world to occupy an island to protect mortals and create a family. Chongming is the name of this Jindan Zhenren.
It has been five hundred years since the Lu family was founded.
The Jindan Zhenren who founded the Lu family had already passed away. Although the Lu family has not produced another Jindan Zhenren, the family now has five foundation-building cultivators and hundreds of Qi-refining cultivators.
It is precisely because of the Lu family’s strength that Chongming Island can be monopolized by the Lu family.
There are only a few people with the talent for cultivating immortals among humans. After five hundred years of reproduction and development, the Lu family gave birth to a large number of mortals who have no talent for cultivation. Mortals intermarried with each other, and by this time, most people on Chongming Island were closely related to the Lu family.
However, these people cannot be considered members of the Lu family. Only those with a talent for cultivation can be included in the family tree. Only those who are included in the family tree can receive incense and worship from the family members. If they succeed in building a foundation, the family will write a book and a biography for them so that they can be admired by future generations.
The northern part of Chongming Island is vast. After years of reclamation, more land has been reclaimed in the north, so people mainly live in the north.
The immortal cultivators of the Lu family all live around Chongming Peak, which is rich in spiritual energy.
No spiritual veins were discovered on Chongming Island itself, otherwise it would not have been unoccupied until the Chongming Immortal occupied this place and used his great magic power to build mountains. He asked the sect's formation master to survey the earth veins and use the power of the earth veins to form a large formation around Chongming Island to protect mortals. Only then was the Chongming Lu family established.
Later, several first-grade spiritual veins were moved to Chongming Peak. After five hundred years of cultivation by the Lu family, they have now been condensed into a third-grade spiritual vein. It can be used for several foundation-building monks and hundreds of Qi-training monks to practice on a daily basis. When the dark sea storm comes, it can also replace spiritual stones to open the formation, which can be said to have greatly reduced the family's spiritual stone expenditure.
In a wooden house at the foot of Chongming Peak, Lu Ping let out a long sigh, slowly finished his practice, and carefully savored the feeling of just having a breakthrough. Feeling the spiritual energy in his body, Lu Ping seemed to hear the sound of the spiritual energy rushing through his meridians.
He lowered his head and thought to himself, "This Qiling Pill is indeed extraordinary. It has only been half a year since I broke through to the sixth level of Qi training. With the help of this pill, I broke through to the seventh level of Qi training, saving myself a year."
Lu Ping possesses three spiritual roots of water, earth and fire. It is not worth it for his family to spend a large amount of spiritual stones to buy this kind of elixir that helps accumulate spiritual power to save time for a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training.
The reason was that Lu Ping was found to have spiritual eyes when he was born. Spiritual eyes are an innate physical gift in the world of cultivation, with all kinds of magical powers. He was also loved by the cultivators in the late stage of foundation building in the family, so he was vigorously cultivated by the family.

After finishing his practice, Lu Ping stood up and used his spiritual power to condense a water mirror. Looking at himself in the mirror, he activated his spiritual eyes. A light blue light appeared in his eyes, which gradually disappeared as he continued to activate his spiritual eyes. His eyes became no different from those of ordinary people.
After that, he calmed down and a thing that looked like a mobile phone appeared in Lu Ping's mind. The screen of the phone lit up under Lu Ping's gaze. The layout inside had changed a lot. All the functions such as browser, information, and address book had disappeared. There was only a game APP on the desktop, Infinite Cultivation of Immortality.
When you open the game, it shows:
Character: Lu Ping
Realm: Qi training level 7
Skill: Mysterious Water Technique Spells:
[Fireball Lv3 (59/500)]
[Cloud and Rain Spell Lv2 (31/200)]
[Phantom Shadow Level 5 (150/2000)]
[Wind Step Lv5 (80/2000)]
[Object Control Skill Lv4 (4/1000)]
Yes, Lu Ping is a time traveler, and a time traveler with his own system.
Lu Ping remembered that he had just downloaded a cultivation game from the game store before he traveled through time, and ended up in this world after falling asleep. Although this place was not as peaceful as his previous life, there was hope for longevity, so Lu Ping settled down.
Because of the power of this system, when Lu Ping was asked to choose whether to join a sect when he was six years old, he chose to stay at home, which was more familiar to him, rather than to join a sect with unknown means. After that, the family would provide him with some elixirs that would help him practice, and the Qiling Pill was one of them.
As for time travel, Lu Ping guessed that the most likely possibility was related to the game that had not been played yet, but it could not be verified at this time.
This game is incomplete, with only some functions left. It is more of a system than a game.
He is Lu Ping of the Lu family. This is the only identity he has. Everything in his past life has become a thing of the past.
The system now has two functions enabled. The first is the panel function, which allows you to view your own attributes and item information. The second is endless practice, where you can automatically practice for 12 hours each time you click.
There are also some wonderful uses of the panel functions that need to be understood by yourself. For example, when Lu Ping successfully casts a spell, his proficiency will be accumulated. When his proficiency is high enough, the level of the spell will be improved. The power of LV5 spells is increased by about 20% compared to LV1 spells. Among other immortal cultivators, only those with outstanding talents can cast spells with more power than ordinary people after improvement.
As for automatic cultivation, Lu Ping discovered that during this period of automatic cultivation, even if he was injured while casting a spell, it would not break the cultivation state. And because he was in the cultivation state, the spiritual energy would prioritize restoring spiritual power rather than increasing the upper limit of cultivation.
Lu Ping saw that the new function that was unlocked after breaking through the late stage of Qi training was the task function, but he found that there were no prompts like before, so he had to give up.
"According to the literal meaning, a mission is also about doing things. I might as well go to the family's Foreign Affairs Hall tomorrow and find a job. Besides, I am practicing all the time, and going out to do things can also earn me some resources for cultivation."
"And according to gaming experience, the number of missions given will not be small."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
After reading the system information, Lu Ping still carefully felt his own condition. After all, the information given by the system was relatively general.
"Grandpa is right. When you reach the seventh level of Qi training, the spiritual energy in your body will be stable, and even the abnormality when activating your spiritual eyes will disappear."
"The world of immortal cultivation is not as peaceful as my family. When I activate my spiritual eyes, there will be strange phenomena. If outsiders see it, it will inevitably cause trouble. That's why my great grandfather warned me not to perform this technique in front of outsiders until I reach the seventh level of Qi training and can control my spiritual eyes at will."
“But I have finally been able to activate my spiritual eyes so that they no longer have any light. Now I can finally perform this technique in front of others.”
Having just broken through a realm, the system activated new functions and he also mastered the spiritual eyes. He was so excited that he thought too much. It took Lu Ping a long time to suppress the messy thoughts in his mind and look at the empty green medicine bottle.
The Qiling Pill is also useful for the later stages of Qi training. If there are enough pills to accelerate the cultivation with the power of the system, I am afraid that I can try to build a foundation in a year. Unfortunately, even those with natural spiritual roots cannot provide unlimited supply, not to mention that the family does not have such financial resources . "But with the help of the new task function of the system, it may not be impossible to earn enough spirit stones."
"It's hard to tell about my great grandfather."
"But according to the rules, now that I have reached the late stage of Qi training, it is only right for me to go out and explore the world."
Thinking of his great-grandfather Lu Ping, he felt distressed. He thought his great-grandfather was too worried about his safety.
"Forget it, I'll find out tomorrow after I ask my great grandfather."
In the world of cultivating immortals, something like spiritualization of the body is very helpful in building the foundation.
Breaking through the foundation-building stage is different from other realms. Qigong practitioners have to practice foundation-building techniques to transform spiritual power into magic power. After that, the body has to undergo tendon-changing and marrow-cleansing to accommodate the magic power. Finally, the magic power nourishes the spiritual consciousness, and the breakthrough is completed.
But magic power is much stronger than spiritual power. Once the body's marrow cleansing fails, the conflict and rampage of magic power will lead to death. This is why foundation building is so much less than Qi training.
As for those whose organs have been mutated, a part of them has completed the marrow cleansing by nature, so they will not die even if they fail to break through.
Therefore, Lu Ping could have tried many times before finally succeeding in building the foundation, and naturally he would be considered the family's foundation-building seed.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Ping decided to practice the art of controlling objects for a while before going to Chongming Peak to ask his great grandfather tomorrow.
[You have gained something from practicing the art of controlling objects. Your proficiency has increased by 1] [You have gained something from practicing the art of controlling objects. Your proficiency has increased by 1] [You have gained something from practicing the art of controlling objects. Your proficiency has increased by 1] …
[Object Control Skill Lv4 (24/1000)]
On the second day, just as the sun came out, Lu Ping opened the door, left his residence, and then walked up the mountain path towards Chongming Peak.
