Chapter 5

When the anomaly occurred, Lin Fei was in a state of extreme shock.

To outsiders, Lin Fei seemed to have been frightened by the bloodshed, and they all looked at him with disdain, muttering things like, "I knew this kid would end up like this," "Newbies are really too inexperienced," "Sigh, each generation is worse than the last. When I was young, I could kill ten feathered ducks in one breath without hesitation." Such comments were common.

To those butchers, this whole process was nothing more than a joke.

"Damn, I've hit the jackpot. People who travel through time really do get special treatment."

If there were no one around, Lin Fei would have definitely shouted out loud to vent his frustration from the past three days.

I've finally turned my life around.

...

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The words from the system still echoed in Lin Fei's mind.

*Invincible Upgrade* was a game developed by the company Lin Fei used to work for, the latest research in upgrade games. It provided various auxiliary functions to make the game as enjoyable as possible. Lin Fei had fallen in love with it at first sight and had played it many times, finding it extremely satisfying.

Lin Fei had never imagined that one day he would obtain the *Invincible Upgrade* system.

The heavens are truly kind to me.

What do I care if my talent is lacking?

What do I care if my potential is poor?

I have the upgrade system!

The capital for my comeback!

At this moment, Lin Fei was completely沸腾, as if he had been injected with a dose of adrenaline.

Before he traveled through time, Lin Fei had thoroughly understood the *Invincible Upgrade* system. It was a game that helped the player level up, providing various treasures as the player progressed, aiming to create a satisfying experience.

Since the upgrade system was still in development and not yet available to the general public, Lin Fei had unknowingly become the first beneficiary.

Now, he could finally boast, "I have the upgrade system, who's afraid of who..."

...

After a thorough search.

Lin Fei found the upgrade system, which had somehow appeared in his mind.

Opening the upgrade system, as usual, Lin Fei obtained his personal information.

"Player: Lin Fei."

"Level: Second Heaven of Martial Arts."

"Experience to next level: 10/1000"

"Martial Arts: None!"

"Combat Skills: None!"

"Treasures: None!"

"Abilities: None!"

...

Comprehensive Evaluation: Player Lin Fei, currently a small ant. Three hundred first-stage demonic beasts, feathered ducks, can mercilessly kill you.

"Damn, when did I become so weak?"

Seeing the system's evaluation, even with his thick skin, Lin Fei couldn't hide his shame and was completely speechless. What kind of upgrade system is this?

After a brief moment of being struck, Lin Fei was immediately drawn to the items in the small storage.

One Bone Washing Pill.

Three Meridian Expansion Pills!

Ten Qi Gathering Pills.

Nine hundred taels of silver.

Wow, these are all good things, like a windfall for the current Lin Fei.

Lin Fei almost drooled, unable to contain his excitement.

Having inherited all the memories of his predecessor, Lin Fei, the time-traveler, had a certain understanding of the prices on the Xuantian Continent.

On the Xuantian Continent, the common currency is silver and gold.

For a martial artist to become a martial arts expert, they need to consume foods rich in blood and qi to replenish their internal qi and blood, building a robust body. Additionally, purchasing techniques, pills, and weapons all require silver, making silver very important.

Nine hundred taels of silver, for the current Lin Fei, who was neither loved by his grandmother nor cared for by his grandfather, was no small sum, temporarily alleviating his financial embarrassment.

A single coin can bring down a hero, and Lin Fei was almost brought down.

Silver is essential.

The pills on the Xuantian Continent are undoubtedly the necessary items that every martial artist dreams of.

The Bone Washing Pill, Qi Gathering Pill, and Meridian Expansion Pill, any of which, are invaluable to outer disciples.

Take the Qi Gathering Pill, for example, it speeds up the absorption of mystic qi during cultivation. An outer disciple can obtain one per month, and if sold outside, one Qi Gathering Pill is worth a thousand taels of silver.

The Bone Washing Pill has an even more prestigious reputation.

When a Divine Martial Sect disciple is allowed to enter the inner sect, they can receive a free Bone Washing Pill to improve their constitution. It is said that the earlier the Bone Washing Pill is taken, the better the improvement.

The Meridian Expansion Pill is something that can cause a stir even within the Divine Martial Sect.

A martial artist's future strength depends on the amount of mystic qi their meridians can contain. To be stronger than others, one's meridians must be able to transport more mystic qi, making any technique more powerful and giving them an edge over others.

The Meridian Expansion Pill is a rare pill that expands the meridians.

Anyone who takes the Meridian Expansion Pill will have their meridians expanded, allowing more mystic qi to pass through. For example, if the amount of mystic qi that could pass through before was one, after taking the Meridian Expansion Pill, it would be five.

The value of these pills is evident.

...

"I now have the upgrade system, you bastards, just wait and see!"

Lin Fei subconsciously put himself in the game.

Three days ago, he was still struggling to think of how to guard against hidden schemes. After obtaining the upgrade system, even if Lin Fei were stupid, he would know that his future would be glorious.

"Killing a first-stage demonic beast gives 10 experience points. Is it like an online game? If I kill 100 feathered ducks, will I advance to the Third Heaven of Martial Arts and cultivate mystic qi?"

Lin Fei, a game enthusiast, immediately understood what was happening and almost jumped three feet high.

"The upgrade system is truly a heaven-defying object. I must not reveal it easily. Fortunately, this place can hide it from others and be used for leveling up."

Advancing to a higher realm by killing a hundred first-stage demonic beasts, even Lin Fei found it hard to believe.

Wouldn't that mean he could quickly advance to the Fourth Heaven of Martial Arts, or even the Ninth Heaven of Martial Arts, which he had never dared to dream of, the realm of the mystic, which seemed to be within reach?

Lin Fei felt as if he had been overwhelmed by happiness.

...

On the Xuantian Continent, martial artists cultivate mystic qi.

The starting stage of martial artists has nine realms, collectively known as the Martial Arts Realm, with the First Heaven of Martial Arts being the lowest and the Ninth Heaven of Martial Arts being the highest.

Currently, Lin Fei is in the second small realm, the Qi Gathering stage.

The first three small realms of the Martial Arts Realm are the low-level realms, focusing on improving and conditioning the body, cultivating mystic qi, and laying the foundation for mystic qi cultivation.

The Fourth Heaven of Martial Arts to the Sixth Heaven of Martial Arts are the mid-level realms, where one begins to cultivate mystic techniques, with mystic qi circulating within the body, greatly increasing strength, and the ability to break stones and shatter boulders with a single move.

The Seventh Heaven of Martial Arts to the Ninth Heaven of Martial Arts are the high-level realms, where one can briefly fly and use mystic qi as a weapon, becoming an elder-level figure within a family.

After the Ninth Heaven of Martial Arts, one enters the mystic realm, crossing the threshold of true cultivation and becoming a true powerhouse.

...

Fortunately, Lin Fei is a time-traveling otaku,

and he understands that being low-key is always the best strategy.

"Zhang Chongshan, Li Xiao, you two bastards, just wait. When I advance to the Fourth Heaven of Martial Arts, I'll make you kneel and sing 'Conquer' a hundred times."

A fierce look flashed in Lin Fei's eyes.

The cages of first-stage demonic beasts, feathered ducks, now appeared to Lin Fei as mission items.

"Feathered ducks, feathered ducks, don't blame me for being heartless. In your next life, remember not to be a feathered duck."
