"Such a beating is truly pitiful. We are all classmates, and those people really went too far!"
"What’s so pitiful about such a scumbag? Better to die and be reborn early!"
"Exactly! With such poor grades, a family so poor, and always mouthing off to girls, he deserves to be beaten every day. It’s a miracle he’s only just been beaten to death today!"
"Ha ha ha..."
The voices were chaotic and faint, as if in a dream.
Lin Yihang slowly opened his eyes, looking around with a dazed expression. He saw unfamiliar faces, all dressed strangely, pointing at him and wearing mocking expressions.
What happened?
Where am I?
In this unfamiliar environment, with unfamiliar people, Lin Yihang felt a surge of caution. Unfortunately, his weak body couldn’t even sit up, leaving him unable to take any action.
The noisy voices filled his ears, and his head throbbed painfully. Lin Yihang could only cover his head with his hands and slowly close his eyes.
Lin Yihang, a genius cultivator from Dragon Tiger Mountain, had attained the Dao at the age of six, practicing both lightning and fire. By the age of forty-one, he had already achieved great success.
Unfortunately, during an exploration of a secret realm, he was ambushed by enemies and fell into a spatially distorted abyss, his body torn to shreds. When he woke up, he found himself here...
"Didn’t I fall into the endless abyss? Could I have survived?"
The words he instinctively spoke naturally drew another round of laughter.
"Ha ha ha, did you hear that? An endless abyss, this guy must play too many games!"
"Why don’t you say you’ve time-traveled?"
"..."
Amidst the laughter, Lin Yihang’s head throbbed even more. Fragments of memories began to flash through his mind, gradually converging into a massive flood of memories.
Boom!
The sudden impact was too much for Lin Yihang to bear. He clutched his head and let out a惨叫, falling back into unconsciousness.
When he woke up the second time, he was lying on a bed.
White sheets, bright windows, and a faint smell of medicine in the air.
A hospital!
This is a hospital!
The ward was quiet. Lin Yihang closed his eyes, trying to digest everything that had happened.
From the massive flood of memories, he knew this world was called Earth, not the immortal continent he had originally been on.
His new body was also named Lin Yihang. However, compared to the genius cultivator he had been, this Lin Yihang had a much more tragic life.
His parents died in a car accident when he was eight, and he had been living with his uncle ever since, treated like a second-class citizen. Without anyone to push him, he had poor grades and was not favored by teachers. He was the type of person who was neglected by everyone.
At seventeen, he was 1.75 meters tall, but thin and weak, often bullied by classmates.
The reason for this beating was that during the afternoon physical education class the day before, the non-sporty Lin Yihang had been sitting on a stone step reading a magazine.
Coincidentally, the school beauty, Yang Tingting, was having her monthly period and couldn’t exercise, so she also sat down.
One of the school’s four rich boys, Su Cheng, was currently pursuing Yang Tingting. When she sat down, he naturally followed like a fly.
In Su Cheng’s eyes, Lin Yihang was just a nobody, so he didn’t bother being polite and simply waved for Lin Yihang to move.
However, Lin Yihang, though thin and weak, had a stubborn personality. Being ordered around in front of his crush, his sensitive heart was hurt, and he shook his head in refusal.
Su Cheng naturally flew into a rage and was about to teach this blind guy a lesson when Yang Tingting immediately scolded him for bullying a classmate.
Feeling his pride wounded by Lin Yihang and unable to do anything with Yang Tingting blocking him, Su Cheng could only leave with a threat.
The next morning, before class, he brought people to the classroom and beat Lin Yihang in front of the whole class.
During the beating, Lin Yihang’s foot was tripped, and he fell, hitting his head on a desk leg. His already weak body left him unsure if he had died or just fainted. When he woke up, he had become the cultivator Lin Yihang.
This was a soul transmigration.
Understanding the situation, Lin Yihang felt no despair, only relief.
Being torn to shreds in the endless abyss, he not only didn’t dissipate but got a second chance at life. What was there to be unsatisfied about?
The only regret was that this new body was too weak. At seventeen, it was a bit late to start cultivation.
However, with the vast memories from his previous life, it wouldn’t be difficult to re-cultivate and stand at the peak again.
The next moment, when he tried to practice using a visualization technique, Lin Yihang’s brows furrowed.
"The spiritual energy in this world... it’s thin and full of impurities... probably due to electromagnetic waves. This isn’t suitable for cultivation!"
Lin Yihang, with the memories of this world, quickly deduced what the impurities in the spiritual energy were. However, he was naturally open-minded and soon stopped worrying.
"Forget it! This life is a bonus, why worry so much!"
"Besides, according to the memories of my previous self, it seems there are no other cultivators in this world! If that’s true, I can do as I please, gather all the cultivation resources, and there’s no fear of not having enough to cultivate!"
Lin Yihang thought optimistically.
The immortal continent had abundant resources, but the competition was fierce, with many cultivators, making it a world of the strong preying on the weak, every step fraught with difficulty.
Earth, while dangerous, would be much easier if he were the only cultivator.
"Of course, I can’t be too conspicuous. There might be other cultivators that my previous self didn’t know about."
Lin Yihang didn’t dare to be careless, as on the immortal continent, some mortals didn’t even know about the existence of cultivators.
Creak!
As he was deep in thought, the door to the ward slowly opened, revealing a beautiful figure. Her bright eyes sparkled with surprise, her slender body curved elegantly, and her ponytail exuded a youthful vibe.
"Lin Yihang, you’re awake!"
Yang Tingting!
The person who entered was Yang Tingting.
"How are you, Lin Yihang? Yang, the school beauty, and I, a big beauty, came to see you. Aren’t you happy?"
Behind Yang Tingting, another girl jumped out, with shoulder-length hair, not particularly beautiful but still pleasant to look at.
Lu Man, Yang Tingting’s best friend, and a classmate of Lin Yihang.
"Xiao Man, don’t talk nonsense. Lin Yihang got hurt because of me, so it’s right for me to come see him." Yang Tingting gave the girl a slightly scolding look.
Lu Man stuck out her tongue at Yang Tingting, and the two entered, placing two bags of fruit on the bedside table.
They brought gifts... but not meat!
Lin Yihang glanced at them, sighing inwardly.
Cultivators, besides drawing spiritual energy from the world, can also obtain energy from food.
On the immortal continent, major sects had spirit fields to grow spirit grains, which, when consumed, could be absorbed by the body. Eating spirit beast meat and other such
