"So how did you come up with the idea of abandoning system cultivation?" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask again.
“There’s nothing I can do. Since I joined the Heavenly Court, I’ve been working in the Secretariat of the Seven Saints Hall in the Jade Emperor’s Palace. To earn merit, I have to write reports, but the Secretary-General is deliberately targeting me and won’t assign me to write a single report. So how can I earn merit?” Wei Zheng said with a smile.
"Fortunately, he didn't require me to work every day, which was like giving me a long vacation. So I took the opportunity to travel all over the Six Realms. When I returned to the Immortal Realm, I suddenly realized that I couldn't cultivate without merit. That didn't make sense. So I started to explore ways to cultivate on my own."
"After stumbling and struggling to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, I discovered that I was actually more powerful than many Golden Core cultivators who advanced through the system. That's when I finally made up my mind that even if I gained merit in the future, I would only use it to exchange for useful immortal techniques and magic treasures, and I would no longer think about accumulating it for advancement," Wei Zheng said.
Wang Yao nodded deeply upon hearing this. He knew Wei Zheng's temperament; this guy was born to give leaders a headache. It was normal for the secretary-general to treat him this way. On the contrary, it would be surprising if he were to be doing very well in the company.
"I also advanced through the system before, and I just felt that those skills were very useful. But why is it that my advancement is more powerful than that of those who relied on the system?" Wang Yao asked again.
“I have specifically studied this issue,” Wei Zheng nodded. “System skills are very useful, but they impose precise limits on a cultivator’s spiritual energy reserves, skill power, and methods of execution. There’s no way around it; the system always needs to digitize everything to function properly.”
“However, cultivating immortality is an extremely complex process that cannot be completely replaced by numbers. Take spiritual energy reserves for example. Once they reach 600 million or more, the system will automatically assume you have entered the Foundation Establishment stage, and it will completely ignore any bottlenecks in your Foundation Establishment process.”
