Chapter 1: Crossing Over into the System

  After being beaten repeatedly, Huang Yu also didn't ask about how long it would take to reach the full level and so on, that was really too depressing.

  Viewed his own character attributes.

  Huang Yu:

  Rank: 1st Rank (1/20)

  Cultivation: None

  Blood Volume: 20

  Attack: 6

  Defense: 3

  Dodge: 4

  Lucky: 5

  School: None

  Life Energy: 306

  Equipment: Fruit Knife (Ordinary High-Grade)

  Skills: Flying Dagger Technique (ordinary extreme product can be upgraded), Gathering Technique (ordinary lower product can be upgraded), Exploration Technique (ordinary lower product can be upgraded)

  This blood volume, attack, defense, dodge and so on, Huang Yu is very clear, but the only thing that puzzles him is this life energy, what exactly is it, what's its function, Huang Yu doesn't understand.

  "Rourou, what can this life be used for?"

  "This life energy is equivalent to your lifespan, one point of life energy equals one day of lifespan. Moreover, life energy can also be used to exchange for cultivation. In the True Martial Continent, the power level of cultivators can be divided into nine realms: Qi Refining, Prenatal, Yuan Dan, Human Infant, Yuan Spirit, Lightning Tribulation, Yin and Yang, Life and Death, and Shattered Void. Each realm can be further divided into nine layers. Exchanging for the first layer of Qi Refining requires ten points of life energy, exchanging for the second layer requires twenty points of life energy, and so on. To exchange for the ninth layer of Qi Refining cultivation, ninety points of life energy are required."

  The master now has a total of 306 points of life energy, and can only exchange for 276 points of life energy. In other words, the master can at most let his own cultivation reach the sixth layer of Qi Refining.

  "Why can I only exchange 276 points and not the remaining 30 points?" Huang Yu asked in puzzlement.

  "Because the master still needs to live on, if life can be consumed completely, the master will be dead, and the master needs to consume a little life energy every day." Lulu said.

  "What?!" Huang Yu exclaimed, "Are you saying that if I don't earn life energy now, I can only live for 306 days, not even a full year of lifespan?"

  "Not bad, it's like that, so the master must work hard."

  "Alas, alas, alas, how did I end up with such a miserable fate? If I were still on Earth, without any unexpected events, I would have been able to live for at least 180 years. But out of nowhere, I got a omnipotent cultivation system and came to this so-called True Martial Continent, only to find that I only have over 300 days left to live. What bad luck.

  Huang Yu was feeling extremely depressed in his heart. When others transmigrated, they all had the protagonist halo surrounding them, with huge benefits from the start, such as countless treasures and secret manuals. But him? His lifespan was even taken away. If he still had a few decades of lifespan left, he could have exchanged it for cultivation. In this world where strong people were as common as trees, without cultivation, it was equivalent to having no way out. At least that's what those in the middle thought, and with just one careless mistake, they would be instantly killed."

  "You don't have to be so down, it's still easy to get life energy. Although your life energy is not much now, you can gain a little by killing a chicken every day. Think about it, isn't it hard for you to survive?" Lulu said with a blink of her gem-like eyes, seeing Huang Yu's dejected expression.

  "That's also true, if I just kill one chicken a day, then I can gain some life energy and get another day of lifespan. If I kill ten chickens a day, wouldn't that mean I'll have nine extra points of life energy? Then why worry about not being able to survive?" Huang Yu thought to this point, his heart became even more delighted, he had just been feeling depressed, but hadn't even thought of this simple logic, had he become stupid after transmigrating?

  However, the master cannot obtain life energy by simply killing chickens. If the master's level reaches five and the wild chicken is only at level one, then the master's level will be five levels higher than the wild chicken, and killing the chicken will not yield any life energy. Moreover, in order for the master to gain sufficient experience and become strong enough, they must constantly cultivate themselves to become stronger, otherwise it would be very difficult for them to survive in this world.

  Lulu continued, "Because every time the master levels up, they can only increase their attack, defense, and dodge by a little bit. Only when the master's cultivation becomes stronger will their attack, defense, and dodge become more powerful, and only then will the master's strength become greater, giving them the capital to survive."

  "The capital to live on is a strong force, no wonder, I must work hard and earn more life energy, so that I can exchange for enough cultivation and quickly become stronger. In other words, I need to level up by fighting monsters as much as possible." With this thought, Huang Yu's eyes lit up, and he had already determined his first long-term goal.

  Looking at the remaining dozen wild wolves not far in front of him, Huang Yu was even more excited. Among these wolves, there is a wolf king. If all these wolves are killed, he will get a considerable income. On the ground, it may be impossible to kill them, let alone kill a wolf five levels higher than himself, but now he is on the tree, and the wolf can't climb trees. This is an opportunity that absolutely cannot be wasted.

  Huang Yu's mouth curled up into a faint smile.

  If I continue to use the flying knife technique to kill wild wolves, it's too slow. I must increase my attack power. The best way is to exchange life energy for cultivation, allowing my strength and attack power to increase. Now I have 306 points of life energy, which can be exchanged for up to Qi Refining Stage Six, requiring the consumption of 210 points of life energy. Upon reaching Qi Refining Stage Six, my attack power will increase by 21 points. Adding this to my original attack power and the Water Fruit Knife's attack bonus, my total attack power will reach 27 points. Since the wild wolf's defense is only 13 points, killing it will be much easier. Sharpening the knife won't delay the work of chopping firewood; exchanging cultivation is absolutely the right choice.

  "Lu Lu, exchange my cultivation for me."

  "What level does the master want to exchange for?" Lulu said.

  "I can now exchange for Qi Refining Sixth Layer, then I'll exchange for Qi Refining Sixth Layer." Huang Yu didn't hesitate at all. Cultivation was the most important thing, and after killing these wild wolves himself, he should be able to obtain at least 70-80 units of Life Force, although it couldn't completely make up for his losses, but it could supplement a part of it.

  "Ding, congratulations player, your cultivation has reached Qi Refining Stage 1."

  "Ding, congratulations player, your cultivation has reached Qi Refining Second Layer."

  ……

  "Ding, congratulations player, your cultivation has reached Qi Refining 6th layer."

  "Exchange successful, master can check by yourself."

  "Got it." Huang Yu had already heard the system prompt, and at this time, Huang Yu opened his own character attribute panel.

  Huang Yu:

  Rank: 1st Rank (1/20)

  Cultivation: Six Layers of Qi Refining

  Blood Volume: 20

  Attack: 3 + 21 + 3

  Defense: 3 + 20

  Dodge: 4 + 15

  Lucky: 5

  School: None

  Life Energy: 96

  Equipment: Fruit Knife (Ordinary High-Grade)

  Skills: Flying Dagger Technique (ordinary extreme product can be upgraded), Gathering Technique (ordinary lower product can be upgraded), Exploration Technique (ordinary lower product can be upgraded)

  Attack, defense and dodge have all been enhanced, overall strength has increased greatly, several times stronger than before. Now it's much easier to deal with wild wolves, what a thrill!
