Chapter 1: Crossing into Another World

  In the eastern land, there is a mountain, with a height of ten thousand zhang, and smoke and clouds surround its waist all year round. Thousands of stone peaks, scales overlapping, dotting the entire majestic giant mountain in the world with immortals, sages, dangers, and wonders. Moreover, there are countless legendary gods and goddesses who fly through the sky and escape into the earth, living on several cloud-shrouded peaks. This makes this sacred mountain the most famous place in the eastern land. Of course, what is called legend is just a legend. For those powerful warriors, this magnificent and majestic, overlooking the world's green misty mountain is also their yearned-for holy land, the Sacred Mountain! Because one of the five major sects in the world, the Qingxia Sect, is located on this mountain.

  In early spring, many harmless birds and beasts fly and run in the forest.

  A few sika deer are gathered by a small stream in the woods, drinking water. Suddenly they lift their heads and look at the distant grass thicket, and a footstep is heard, this group of frightened sika deer immediately turns around and rushes away.

  Before long, a figure emerged from the clump of grass. From a distance, it was just a young man in his late teens.

  A young boy in a hemp garment, judging from his age, he was at most twelve or thirteen years old. His long hair fell to his shoulders, and his face looked haggard. However, the occasional flashes of vicissitudes between his eyebrows made everyone who saw him feel strange.

  He walked to the edge of the stream, cupped his hands and splashed water on his face, then brushed off the dust from his clothes. The slightly haggard figure gradually regained some of its vitality.

  "Ah, it's already been two months. I've been in this world for that long too... will I ever be able to return to my old world?" The young man muttered to himself.

  He stretched his waist and sat quietly by the stream, gazing at the water.

  "Whatever. There's nothing worth remembering in my original world anyway, and that world can't even feel such a dense spiritual energy! Since I've already decided to dedicate myself to martial arts, wouldn't it be better for me to achieve my ideals in this world?"

  Clutching his fist tightly, since you've come, then just be at ease!

  "The 'Hongmeng Zhuanlun Jing' is indeed the ultimate technique left behind by our Huaxia Yanhuang ancestors, and the knowledge recorded in it far surpasses the most advanced techniques of these two worlds. In this world where spiritual energy is so abundant, I probably won't need a hundred years to reach the realm known as the 'Supreme State'. I really want to experience it soon. What kind of state is that Supreme State?" As he thought, he slowly got up and walked towards the outside of the forest.

  The young man whispering by the stream is named Xu Zhen, an orphan from Earth, the home planet of the Galactic Federation.

  He was excellent in his studies since childhood and read through university without any fees. In the more than 20 years before he started working, he also relied on his innate talent to cultivate the worst skills and enjoy the worst resources, yet became one of the few young warriors who broke through the fourth level in the entire Federation! So after graduation, he was assigned to the Federal Military Academy as a guidance teacher, which is considered one of the most coveted positions at that time. Not only is the treatment good, but the martial arts training resources are also unlimited!

  It's probably because of his exceptional excellence, combined with a unique appearance that doesn't quite qualify as handsome. This has made him the white knight in the hearts of countless girls, which in turn makes many high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen who got into school through connections look at him with disdain. You see, in that world, the strongest aren't those with physical power! Various plots and schemes, even someone as skilled as he is can't withstand them.

  In the end, he reluctantly applied to transfer to the library as an administrator. Firstly, it was to have a quiet environment and focus on his cultivation. Secondly, there were countless years of martial arts classics restored by the highest technology of the United Federation of Humanity here.

  After arriving here, Xu Zhen's life was also at ease and regular. However, fate seemed to have played a joke on him. At his original speed, he had hoped to become a seventh-level Sky Warrior who could fly with his physical body and break through machine armor before the age of 50, entering the federal high-level and enjoying all the benefits. But just as he was about to become a fifth-level warrior, at the sensational turning point, he inexplicably - crossed over?

  At the beginning of the month, Xu Zhen went to the classical district to clean up and organize those classics.

  The so-called classics are those that have not been deciphered, or are considered to be of no use. These things were mostly excavated from the origin of humanity - the earth. Because they had no effect, they were discarded here like antiques.

  That day, while organizing the Huangdi ancient martial arts classics, he inadvertently pulled out a volume of unknown leather-made illustrations from the cover pages of some ancient books. The drawings on it were of some unknown animals. He didn't pay much attention to it and casually held it in his hand, planning to study it carefully after finishing the organization. After all, it had been placed here for so many years, not even the Federal Brain had deciphered it, and he didn't believe he could figure it out either. However, young people are always fond of fantasy, and Xu Zhen, who was already at the age of marriage, was no exception.

  But who would have thought that an earthquake would strike at this moment. He was buried under the bookshelf. The strange thing is that Xu Zhen found that his cultivation had no effect at all! His whole body seemed to be bound, and he could only watch as the bookshelves crashed towards him. However, a fourth-level warrior is still a fourth-level warrior, and a few bookshelves can't crush him to death. Moreover, according to the Federation's technological level, as long as the rescue team receives the news and rushes over, it will only take seconds. It won't take much time to get him out of the ruins either. An even stranger thing happened!

  He found that, without knowing when, his fingernail had cracked open a small gap, and fresh blood was flowing out uncontrollably. No! It was being absorbed by the leather strip! He tried every means to stop the bleeding, but the hand holding the leather seemed no longer under his control. The blood in his body was getting less and less, and his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred. Finally, Xu Zhen fainted...

  "Breaking news, the Federal Public Martial Academy has just discovered a space wormhole. The Federal Library suffered significant damage, with countless precious books being sucked into the wormhole and their whereabouts unknown. The Federal Library was founded..."

  Xu Zhen was unaware, just as he fainted for a moment, the space in his area suddenly shattered, and his body along with countless books disappeared into the dark space...

  It wasn't until he woke up again after a long time that he discovered many things had been added to his brain. It was only then that he realized that the clichéd plot of transmigration had actually happened to him. As he recalled the memories in his mind, Xu Zhen finally understood the environment he was currently in.

  The deceased young man's name was Cang Ye. He was a collateral descendant of the Cang clan, one of the four major aristocratic families of the Yan Tian Empire, and had been frail and sickly since childhood. After turning ten years old, he was sent to this martial arts holy land through family connections to study martial arts techniques, hoping to escape his weak life.

  Qingxia Sect is one of the top five sects in the world. However, no matter how strong a sect is, it still needs countless disciples to provide support. Otherwise, even if a sect is extremely powerful, if there is no one to inherit its legacy, it will not be able to last long.

  The Flame Empire, as one of the seven superior empires affiliated with the Qingxia Sect. The four major families in the country have a long history of inheritance and also have a certain foundation in the Qingxia Sect. The Qingxia Sect is also happy to select disciples from these empires. After all, disciples who have been cultivated with various spiritual resources since childhood must have much higher qualifications than those from ordinary families. And Cangye, that is, through family relationships, got such a quota.

  It's just a side branch, after all, it can't be compared to the orthodox one. Not long after entering the mountain, he became the object of those direct descendants' orders. After all, they were all 11 or 12-year-old kids who couldn't bear hardships.

  As a member of the aristocratic family, there were countless servants at his beck and call in the household. However, after arriving on the mountain, he became the youngest disciple with the lowest status. Not to mention having servants at his command, it was already impressive that he hadn't become a servant himself given his background. Those who could make it here were either from the aristocratic families of various vassal states or exceptionally talented individuals. Although they were all the youngest disciples, their treatment was indeed completely different. The direct descendants of the aristocratic families were naturally valued more than those from side branches. Not to mention those with exceptional talents.

  So people like Cang Ye who have no background or qualifications become the lowest level of existence when they come here.

  One of the rules of Qingxia Sect is to let those noble disciples who have just arrived here serve as miscellaneous workers at the foot of the mountain for half a year, in order to grind off their arrogant and domineering airs. These direct descendants are always pampered at home and naturally cannot do hard work. So they push it down level by level. The tasks of the imperial family's children are handed over to the children of the noble families. The children of the noble families then continue to pass on the miscellaneous tasks, including their own, downwards. However, even the lowest ones who can make it here are still from the noble families. So those collateral branches are out of luck. A person not only has to do his own work but also has to complete the daily tasks for the people above him.

  Cang Ye was such a pathetic person. Unfortunately, he had been weak since childhood. He didn't live for long after coming here and died of overwork. At that time, Xu Zhen's soul went astray and floated through many dimensions, finally landing on Cang Ye's body, and a brand new Cang Ye was born.

  "In my previous life, I was influenced by those wealthy merchants and officials, which made me unable to devote myself wholeheartedly to the martial way. That's why I transferred to the library, hoping to avoid those spoiled brats. Who would have thought that in this life, I would come to a world with such abundant spiritual energy? It seems that fate wants me to take a glimpse at the pinnacle of the martial world!"

  Thinking of this, Xu Zhen couldn't help but clench his fist tightly.

  "This 'Hong Meng Zhuan Lun Jing' was collected by whom in the book? Why did no one discover it for thousands of years? My Yan Huang clan has such a treasure but can only be deeply hidden in the library, if this extraordinary martial art appears in the Cosmic Alliance, it will inevitably be another bloody storm."

  After his traversal, nothing was brought over, only a martial arts masterpiece appeared in his mind! Although he no longer intends to explore the reason for coming to this world, Xu Zhen knows that even if he reaches the pinnacle of martial arts, he may not be able to explain why he came here. It can only be attributed to fate.

  "But even if I got the answer, it's not like it would be of any use. After all, that world's spiritual energy is scarce, and probably can't even achieve the first layer of foundation building in this martial arts masterpiece."

  "In my past life, I didn't have much attachment either. Since fate has arranged for me to appear in this world with abundant spiritual energy and possess the ultimate martial art, I will set foot on the pinnacle. Let's take a look at what the so-called strongest realm in the world is like!"
