Chapter 1

Amidst the emerald and winding mountains, which encircled a surging great river, the silent and unknown 'Qingmu City' lay at the foot of the sinister rock walls, which were as high as two hundred zhang and had been cut by axes and swords. It was just one of the nine counties under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou, one of the nine states of the State of Zhao, and its size was comparable to that of a small county in modern society.

A small county like this was not uncommon; a state in the State of Zhao might have as many as twenty or eighteen such counties. Moreover, Qingmu City was indeed too poor. Even in Qingzhou, it was among the poorest and smallest counties.

However, at just six o'clock in the morning, when modern people were still nestled in their soft silk beds, the training ground of the Ye family was filled with thunderous applause, shaking the heavens and the earth. Waves of cheers erupted like sea waves, spreading from the Ye family to the entire Qingmu City.

This was because today was the day when the Ye family conducted its biannual 'Blood Root' test to select talented disciples. 'Blood Root' referred to the 'Bloodline Index,' which indicated one's potential for martial arts cultivation.

It was similar to the concept of 'IQ' in modern society.

The martial artists of the 'Tai Xuan Continent' primarily cultivated their 'Bloodline Abilities,' with children as young as five beginning the preliminary stages of martial arts body training. Only by training their bodies to the utmost could they use their strong muscles to vibrate their bloodlines. Once 'Bloodline Vibration' was successful, they could vibrate the air, absorb the elemental energy of heaven and earth, and enter the 'Pulse Vibration Realm.'

Only disciples who reached the 'Pulse Vibration Realm' could be called 'martial artists.' Before that, they were just ordinary people.

The 'Tai Xuan Continent' was a land where martial arts were highly esteemed, and the status of ordinary people was lower than that of a dog in the hands of a strong person. Therefore, pursuing higher martial arts was the only way to gain status, wealth, beauty, power, longevity, and everything else.

Just like the scholars of ancient China, who believed that 'all things are inferior, only learning is supreme,' because only by studying and passing the imperial examinations could one rise to prominence.

On the Tai Xuan Continent, if you couldn't awaken your bloodline, you were basically a failure. You were destined to be an ordinary person all your life.

"Jun Tian, go lie down for a while. Testing the 'Blood Root' energy is very strenuous and tiring. Your mother has already prepared a bowl of Eight Treasure Lotus Seed Soup. You can drink it after you wake up, which will be more effective." Ye Jun Tian's father, Ye Qing Xiao, with a kind face, gently patted his son's shoulder and smiled with relief.

Ye Jun Tian understood that he had just returned from the family training ground where he had been tested for his 'Bloodline Index.' His father didn't ask about the results, but he could tell from his son's face. His father was considerate and pretended not to know.

Ye Jun Tian also understood the immense pressure his father was under. As a core elder of the Ye family, his father was still in the 'Body Training Realm' and had not yet managed to vibrate his bloodline to enter the 'Pulse Vibration Realm.'

Today, after the bloodline energy test, Ye Jun Tian's score was a big 'zero.' The minimum standard for vibrating the bloodline was '10 decibels.' A bloodline vibration of 'zero' meant that his bloodline had not moved at all. Strictly speaking, he was just an ordinary person and could not be called a martial artist.

Idiot!

Waste!

Scoundrel!

Fool!

Even 'bastard' and 'not of our Ye family lineage'—waves of insults filled Ye Jun Tian's ears. Even his father, Ye Qing Xiao, a core elder of the Ye family, heard them.

Some clan members even suggested that if Ye Jun Tian still couldn't enter the 'Pulse Vibration Realm' next time, it would prove that Ye Qing Xiao was a poor father and had a low 'Bloodline Root.' A core elder producing such a waste of a son would be a great disgrace to the Ye family, making it a laughingstock in Qingmu City. Therefore, they suggested that Ye Qing Xiao should be expelled from the elder circle, just like in the 'Nine Clans' punishment.

Of course, the Ye family had many members, and there were no shortage of those who coveted Ye Qing Xiao's position as a core elder.

"Dad, I..." Ye Jun Tian's voice was choked, and his mood was very low.

"It's okay. In a few days, I'll try to get you a bowl of the blood of a fierce beast in the 'Human Martial Realm' to drink. Maybe it will work." Ye Qing Xiao laughed, pretending not to care. In reality, Ye Jun Tian knew that his father was smiling on the outside but suffering on the inside.

"Dad, I'm going to practice." Ye Jun Tian couldn't stay any longer and rushed into the forest behind the mountain like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain.

He started punching and kicking the trees wildly, screaming and venting his frustration. With each punch and kick, the sound of impact echoed.

In front of Ye Jun Tian, the mocking face of his cousin Ye Jun appeared: "Fool!" "Beat you to death!" Ye Jun Tian hit the tree with all his might, his hands bleeding.

Another tree turned into the sneering face of his cousin Ye Hua: "Waste!" "Kick you to death, you dog." Ye Jun Tian kicked another tree, his feet bleeding.

A slender rock beside him turned into the disdainful look of Ye Qing Lian, the most beautiful woman in the Ye family. In this state, Ye Jun Tian was brutally punishing himself. Finally, covered in blood, he fell to the ground in pain.

"Ah, I finally managed to travel through time, but I didn't expect to end up in such a 'waste.' Is my fate so bitter?" The 'Ye Jun Tian' from China, after receiving, analyzing, and storing all the memories of the unfortunate Ye Jun Tian from the State of Zhao, couldn't help but open his eyes with a bitter expression.

Originally, he was piloting the Dongfanghong 100 spacecraft, preparing to travel through Mars back to Earth, when he encountered a massive black hole particle eruption. This unprecedentedly powerful black hole particle swept through the entire solar system. As a result, Ye Jun Tian could only watch helplessly as the spacecraft was swallowed by the black hole.

After a period of unprecedented dizziness, he woke up to find himself in a fashionable time travel, and he had ended up in the body of another 'Ye Jun Tian,' a waste. This person had beaten himself up until he was covered in blood and had died from the torture.

At this moment, a wave of resentment lingered in the mind of the reborn Ye Jun Tian. Ye Jun Tian even saw a faint gray mist twisting above his head, unwilling to leave. He knew that this was the 'resentment' that the original owner of this body had accumulated.

"Rest assured, I will fulfill the wishes you couldn't complete. After all, I have taken over your body." Ye Jun Tian said in his mind, with a sincere attitude and firm will. His tone was domineering, making it impossible not to believe him.

Of course, this was the charisma of Ye Jun Tian from Earth. As a seasoned astronaut and the first person to break through the solar system, he was as popular globally as the best actors and singers. Many top-notch beauties had waited for three days and nights, living on instant noodles and mineral water, just to get his autograph. Therefore, on Earth, Ye Jun Tian had another nickname—King of the Universe.

Uh...

Ye Jun Tian seemed to hear a faint 'response.' The gray mist gradually dissipated, and his mind, which had been somewhat muddled, instantly became clear. His spirit became even more ethereal, as if his consciousness had been cleansed by a precious treasure.

Knowing that the unfortunate soul had completely 'left,' Ye Jun Tian was about to get up from the ground and return to the family to apply medicine and treat his injuries. At this moment, his body began to tremble as if he had the chills.

Moreover, the trembling became more intense. Ye Jun Tian was stunned because his muscles were contracting and expanding violently, and his skin was undulating like waves. It was as if his skin had become the surface of the waves, and his muscles were the force driving the waves.

This situation was somewhat similar to the symptoms of an epileptic seizure.

Damn, it can't be. Could this guy really have epilepsy? How can I deal with this? Ye Jun Tian's mind was in turmoil.

However, he quickly calmed down. As a seasoned astronaut, his vast experience in space travel had forged a rock-solid will.

Ye Jun Tian decided to observe the situation first. If the body of the unfortunate soul really had epilepsy, he would have to find a way to treat it.

Soon, he discovered that the blood from the injuries inflicted by the original owner was being absorbed by his skin and muscles. Soon, Ye Jun Tian clearly felt the blood vessels in his body pulsating violently, as if they were rubber bands being playfully bounced up and down by a child.

Soon, the muscles vibrated the blood vessels, causing them to tremble. Then, the pores of his body opened, and a surge of elemental energy from heaven and earth rushed in. The pure energy entered his body and circulated through his meridians.

Ye Jun Tian involuntarily focused all his energy, trying to activate the Ye family's ancestral cultivation technique—Qingmu Gong.

This technique was the basic breathing method for the Ye family. It formed nine cycles within the body, after which the energy was directed into the blood vessels to enhance the bloodline energy. Finally, the bloodline energy converged in the heart, which became the dantian for bloodline cultivators.

However, what shocked Ye Jun Tian to the core was that he couldn't cultivate the Ye family's 'Qingmu Gong' at all. The elemental energy absorbed through the pores and the bloodline vibration was actually flowing in reverse.

Moreover, it was moving through the meridians in an irregular manner, somewhat like the 'reverse meridian' phenomenon described by the old man, which was a sign of imminent energy deviation, leading to a chaotic meridian system, and in severe cases, death by explosion.

However, as a seasoned astronaut in his previous life, he had experienced all kinds of major events.

After a moment of panic, Ye Jun Tian quickly calmed down and began to observe. Since the elemental energy entering his body was not following the Ye family's cultivation method, forcing it to follow would be counterproductive and might even result in a broken meridian and disability. How could he then enjoy the beauties of the State of Zhao and dominate the world? Therefore, he decided to let it be. Ye Jun Tian relaxed his entire body and let it happen.

With this mindset, Ye Jun Tian became even more composed, adopting a 'dead pig not afraid of boiling water' attitude.

As a result, without resistance, the energy flow became more stable. After an hour, Ye Jun Tian noticed some patterns. It seemed that the seemingly chaotic and wild energy flow actually had a pattern.

After several cycles, Ye Jun Tian finally discovered the pattern of the energy flow. This energy flow not only reversed but also moved forward. After reversing, it immediately 'moved forward,' and this process repeated, with the forward and reverse movements coordinating very well, producing an effect more than twice as good as a single-direction flow.

What kind of situation is this?
