It's been five years since I came to this world. I've started going to school at my family's sect, the Lin Sect, and I've been learning cultivation for two years now. During my time in this sect, I've accumulated over 5 million points through my system.
I've also achieved the stage of Body Refinement, which is the 10th stage of cultivation. It's strange, though—supposedly, there are an infinite number of cultivation stages, with the highest stages said to create gods. But those are just stories my family tells… Still, for some reason, I feel like those stories are true.
The Next Day
Where's my family?
"Unfortunately, your family left to go fight with another sect."
Huh? I've got to go help them… but I'm too weak.
Huh? The system has never activated before…
What's this? It wants me to go into a special room?
"Yes or No?"
I guess I'll click yes.
Whoop—
I clicked yes, and now I'm in some kind of space-time room. It looks like outer space, but… it's different. I can feel time itself here—but it doesn't feel like it's moving. Everything feels completely still. Even space isn't shifting. What is this place?
"SYSTEM NOTIFICATION"
It wants me to train here for 500 years. By then, my family will be done fighting…
"SYSTEM NOTIFICATION"
"Time doesn't move in this dimension, so no—it won't."
WTF?!!!
The system… talks?
"Yes."
Well… I guess I've got all the time in the world to cultivate.
Why not?
500 years have passed.
I've reached the Soul Refinement Stage—the 20th stage of cultivation.
Apparently, even my parents haven't reached this stage yet… which is interesting.
Hey, System!
Yes?
Do I go through more stages in this weird space-time room?
No.
But this space room contains more Qi than anywhere else in the universe—so that might explain your rapid progress.
Huh… that makes sense.
Anyway, can I leave this room now that I've reached a higher level?
I want to help my parents win the war against our rival sect.
