Shen Yuan was very happy after he traveled through time and realized that he had a system.

I had no worries in my previous life, so I have nothing to regret after traveling through time. On the contrary, the world I live in in this life seems peaceful on the surface, but in fact it has a chaotic history and many myths and legends.

If one could embark on the path of spiritual practice in this life and have the hope of achieving immortality in the future, wouldn't that be more interesting than an ordinary life in the previous one?

What's more, Shen Yuan has the assistance of a personal system, which is standard for a protagonist. Although Shen Yuan doesn't think he is destined to be a man, he is confident that he can make a name for himself in this world with the help of the system.

However, before the novice guidance period was over, what happened before his eyes gave Shen Yuan a heavy blow.

I followed the novice guidance and joined a hidden sect, only to find out that the sect had been gone for ten thousand years. The novice guidance that was supposed to be easy to follow turned out to be a disaster.

Of course, it would be fine if he just failed to join the sect. After all, Shen Yuan’s greatest reliance is the Ascension System. The loss of the sect is just the loss of a backer. As long as the system is there, everything will be fine.

But the key issue now is

Guide for beginners: Take the Immortal Ascension Order to Yunwu Mountain Range and join Luoyun Sect to obtain the "Purple Cloud Refining Qi Method".

On the system interface prompt, the novice guide is still in bright red and unfinished.

"System, what's the situation with your novice guidance? My sect has been extinct for 10,000 years. Where can you let me complete the novice guidance?"

The system interface was blurry, as if it was stuck in some kind of freeze. After a while, a string of fonts popped up.

System: The host can join the Luoyun Sect with the Immortal Ascension Order and complete the novice guidance task.

Shen Yuan's eyelids twitched suddenly, and a feeling of powerlessness arose in his heart.

He has been in contact with the Ascension System for half a year. The communication during this half year has made Shen Yuan understand that the Ascension System has no wisdom at all and it answers completely according to a certain established logic.

Compared with it, Xiao Ai can be considered a genius with high IQ.

The benefits of the secluded sect are gone now, but as long as there is the follow-up "Zixia Qi Refining Method", Shen Yuan can still practice on his own. At most, the progress of practice will be slower.

After tidying up his words, Shen Yuan changed his way of saying it.

"If I can't complete the novice guidance mission, where can I get the subsequent skills?"

System: The host can complete the main quest and side quests first.

Shen Yuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "How do we complete the main and side quests?"

System: Please complete the novice guidance. After joining the sect, you can start the main and side quests.

"I really shouldn't have expected anything from artificial intelligence."

Shen Yuan's face darkened and he couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

The novice guidance was stuck in this unexpected way. Shen Yuan had no choice but to place his hopes on the Luoyun Sect's blessed land.

The Luoyun Sect should have some foundation since it was able to give birth to a powerful earthly immortal who could ascend to heaven with the sect. If we go in and look around, we might be able to find a method to refine essence and transform it into qi.

By then, there will be no need to rely on the artificial intelligence system, Shen Yuan can continue to practice on his own.

With this in mind, Shen Yuan, carrying his backpack, strode across the barrier of the paradise in front of him.

Although his feet were on the ground, the spatial change across the cave barrier still made Shen Yuan feel dizzy, as if the world in front of him was turned upside down at this moment. If Shen Yuan had not embarked on the path of cultivation and his body had been several times larger than that of an ordinary person, he would definitely have difficulty standing steadily at this moment.

After standing there for a while to adjust himself, Shen Yuan began to really look at the paradise in front of him.

The cave is a world of its own, but there is no sun. Only white light from the broken sky illuminates the cave.

The main body of the cave above the earth is a magnificent mountain. The huge mountain that reaches into the clouds seems to be broken by supreme power, smashing a huge abyss on the earth.

Shen Yuan walked through the ruins of pavilions and towers. There was an air of decay all around him, but all he saw was an empty and dead silence. There was not even a corpse or a piece of clothing.

Pushing open a wooden door, there were even wine jugs and dusty jade cups left on the broken attic table. The cave had preserved their original form over the past ten thousand years, allowing Shen Yuan to see that just before the disaster, there were still people drinking wine at the table. But as the disaster struck, everyone seemed to be wiped out by an invisible hand.

Shen Yuan felt an inexplicable chill and did not dare to touch the gold and silver objects rashly. Instead, he quickened his pace to search for truly useful books.

But as the search deepened, even greater doubts emerged before Shen Yuan.

In the entire cave, all the books related to cultivation had their words wiped out, leaving only blank volumes.

Whether it was the gold paper and silver seals, the stone tablet engravings, or the legendary jade slips of divine consciousness, they were all completely erased.

Shen Yuan spent a whole day searching the entire cave, but in the end he only found a few books similar to diaries and a golden scroll enshrined in a hall.

As he was afraid of the empty and silent cave, Shen Yuan did not stay for long after the search. Instead, he left the cave and temporarily set up a tent outside.

Shen Yuan sat by the campfire. Mosquitoes and small animals at night were attracted by the firelight. Occasionally, a few wild cats and squirrels lay on the surrounding trees and looked at Shen Yuan curiously.

After flipping through the diary, Shen Yuan was very glad that during the few months of contact with the artificial intelligence system, he had studied the ancient characters of this world in depth and could barely understand the contents of these diaries.

The several diaries basically came from former disciples of Luoyun Sect, and they were the lowest-level disciples.

The contents of the diary are mostly about how a certain senior brother has made great progress in his skills and has been listed as a true disciple, or that a man has a crush on a certain senior sister and expresses his love for her in his diary, or that the sect has unfortunately encountered a strong enemy and was defeated in the sect competition.

The only useful things might be some tips on some minor spells, but there was still no substantial content for practice.

With the last bit of expectation, Shen Yuan opened the exquisite golden scroll.

But after seeing the contents, Shen Yuan's expectations turned into disappointment. There was no cultivation method in this scroll, only a person's name.

Relying on his recent accumulation of knowledge, Shen Yuan, half guessing and half guessing, barely read out the top few words on the scroll.

"The list of clan leaders?"

When Shen Yuan's sight moved to the end, he suddenly found that there was only a blank space where the name should have been written, which was exactly the same as the cultivation content that had been erased.

Shen Yuan sighed, his face full of disappointment.

Unable to find any training content in the ruins of Luoyun Sect, this trip to Yunwu Mountains ended in complete failure.

"It seems that we can only go back and see if we can find the follow-up skills from other channels. At least we can't rely on this artificial intelligence system."

Thinking of this, Shen Yuan wanted to throw the diaries and scrolls in his hand into the fire, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided not to do so.

Things left behind by the Luoyun Sect ten thousand years ago should be considered antiques. It is difficult to explain the origin of such things and they must not be seen in public, but it is also good to collect them for yourself.

Looking at the blank space at the end of the golden scroll, Shen Yuan suddenly had an idea and picked up a small piece of charcoal from the campfire and used the charcoal as a pen to write his name on it.

"Although Luoyun Sect was destroyed, it shouldn't be a problem for me to leave my name behind and satisfy my desire to be the Sect Master, right?"

The charcoal that was not completely burned broke into several pieces while writing. The crooked handwriting was like a scar on a neat test paper, completely destroying the ancient beauty of the golden scroll.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in Shen Yuan's ears.

System: The host has gone through many hardships and trials, and has been single-handedly included in the "List of Sect Masters". None of the real masters in the sect's Patriarch Hall, Elder Palace, and True Transmission Hall objected.

System: Congratulations to the host for becoming the current leader of Luoyun Sect and completing the hidden achievement: Leader of a Sect. Reward: Earthly Demonic Power: Pot Heaven!

System: The host successfully joins the Luoyun Sect as the Sect Master, completes the novice guidance, and is rewarded with "Zixia Qi Refining Method".
