Chapter 1
A sudden golden finger Huoxuan County, Dayan City.
As a big city backed by the Monster Mountain Range, it has a population of tens of millions, and the forces within it are extremely complex.
Among these countless forces, there are three major families that stand above the rest.
They are the Li family, the Tang family and the Lin family.
At this time, in a secret room deep in the Lin family's ancestral land.
An old man exuding an aura of old age was sitting cross-legged, making hand gestures, drawing wisps of energy from heaven and earth into his body, transforming them into nutrients to replenish himself.
After an unknown amount of time, the old man suddenly opened his eyes. A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and his aura suddenly surged. The powerful cultivation in his body was flowing along the meridians, running through his whole body, and charging towards a solid bottleneck, hoping to open the door to the extraordinary path.
Trickle. With his sufficient preparation, a faint fluorescence burst out from the walls of the entire secret room, and pure spiritual energy poured out from the stones in the room that emitted a milky white halo, and was sucked into the body by the pulling force emanating from the old man.
It is constantly being refined into the foundation for breaking through bottlenecks.
And so, I don’t know how much time passed.
Suddenly, "Poof"
A sound of vomiting blood was heard in the secret room, and then the old man's breath suddenly became weak.
A hint of gray and dusky air emerged from his body.
This means that his life span, which was already limited, has been damaged again and is in imminent danger~!
“Haha. I didn’t expect that I, Lin Chen, a time traveler from the 21st century, who came to this Zhenwu world where one hand can pick up the stars and the moon and cover the sky, can’t even break through the Transcendent Realm. What a failure~!”
When he thought of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of self-mockery at the corner of his mouth.
When he traveled to the Zhenwu world and learned that it was a fantasy world with extraordinary powers, he also dreamed of becoming the protagonist, awakening the golden finger and pushing forward to the top of the world.
But ideals are full and reality is skinny.
It has been ninety-nine years since Lin Chen was born, and he still has not awakened the golden finger.
Although he had good talent and if he was born into a powerful force, he might even have been able to break through to the Transcendent Realm and live for a thousand years, but the place where he was born was just a small mountain village.
There was only the most basic method of cultivation in the Leather Refining Realm, and resources were scarce, so everyone was struggling to survive.
Therefore, Lin Chen's best time for cultivation was delayed. If it weren't for another opportunity, he probably wouldn't even be able to break through the blood exchange realm.
Of course, although the Blood Exchange Realm is nothing in the Zhenwu World, it is not weak in the Great Chu Dynasty.
After all, dynasty-level forces are generally created and passed down by kings in the True Spirit Realm, and the Great Chu Dynasty has been in existence for tens of thousands of years. The True Spirit Realm powerhouses in the dynasty have long since fallen, and no new True Spirit Realm powerhouses have been born. The strongest existing cultivator is only at the ninth level of the Divine Ability Realm.
In the Zhenwu world, the way of cultivation can be divided from low to high into: Skin Refining Realm, Bone Tempering Realm, Muscle Changing Realm, Marrow Cleansing Realm, Blood Exchange Realm, Transmaturity, Supernatural Powers, True Spirit, Nirvana, and so on.
The first five realms, as the name suggests, are about tempering the body and laying the foundation for subsequent transformation.
These five realms will not significantly increase lifespan, nor will they allow one to fly in the air.
Because below the Transcendental Realm, if one only cultivates the physical body without cultivating magical powers, one cannot achieve transcendence.
Of course, this does not mean that these realms are weak.
In the Zhenwu world, whether it is the Skin Refining Realm, the Bone Tempering Realm or the later realms, they can be divided into one to nine levels.
An ordinary creature at the first level of the Skin Refining Realm possesses a force of a thousand pounds with just a move of his hands. After reaching the ninth level of the Skin Refining Realm, he possesses a force of thirty-six thousand pounds. The strong ones can even break this limit and reach a force of seventy-two thousand pounds, and at most a force of one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred pounds.
Not to mention the later realms.
A Blood Exchange Realm expert like Lin Chen is able to destroy a thousand-meter-high mountain with one strike, and can easily jump thousands of feet high, and can create a seventh-grade force.
The Lin family was able to become one of the three seventh-grade families in Dayan City, which has a population of tens of millions, because of him, a peak blood exchange realm expert.
"Once I die, given the current situation of the Lin family, I'm afraid we won't be able to gain a foothold in Dayan City. Fortunately, I have made preparations and can get my family members to leave this troubled place."
Thinking about his own situation, a hint of relief flashed across Lin Chen's eyes.
As a person who has died once, he is relatively open-minded about this. In addition, he has lived for ninety-nine years in this life, which would have been considered a long-lived person in his previous life, so it is not a loss at all.
Theoretically, even if a Blood Exchange Realm expert does not increase his lifespan much, he will at least have a lifespan of 150 years. If he knows how to maintain good health, it is not uncommon for him to live to 180 years.
However, Lin Chen is a grassroots genius who rose from obscurity.
How could he have gotten to where he is now without fighting desperately and scrambling for resources? In hundreds of battles, he had been injured countless times, some of which were difficult to heal without a panacea to recover from, which resulted in his life span being shorter than that of an ordinary Blood Exchange Realm warrior, not to mention the backlash from his failed breakthrough to a new realm.
He only has a few months left to live.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He must make plans for his family's future.
After all, the Lin family has only been prosperous for too short a time, and their foundation is shallow. Apart from him, a strong man at the peak of the Blood Exchange Realm, there are no other strong men at the Blood Exchange Realm in charge.
As for the other two major families in Dayan City, there are three powerful men in the Blood Exchange Realm in charge. The gap is really too big.
However, just as Lin Chen fell into deep thought, thinking about how to minimize the losses of the Lin family.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his head.
Then a mechanical and cold voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"System activation in progress. Congratulations to the host for binding to the strongest family system. You will receive a novice gift pack [including system operation instructions]. Do you want to open it?"
system?
Hearing this sudden voice, I saw a transparent light curtain appear out of thin air in front of me.
A yes/no option under an item that looks like a package.
After Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, a look of deep joy appeared on his face.
Although he had traveled to the Zhenwu World for nearly a hundred years, he had never forgotten his previous life and often read novels on his mobile phone, so he was naturally very clear about the role of the system.
It can be said that as long as the system obtained is not too bad, the host will be able to take off.
"Open."
Without thinking too much, Lin Chen stared at the light screen in front of him with sharp eyes, and said silently in his heart with full of anticipation.
[The novice gift package was opened successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Eye of Destiny, a copy of the Primordial Human Race's Innate Dao Body Origin, a copy of the Martial Arts Codex, and 100,000 Luck Points.]
