"Ding! Congratulations on successfully binding the Hundredfold Cultivation System!"
"Ding! You've taken a step. Gained 10×100 experience for Basic Footwork!"
"Ding! Your Basic Footwork has reached perfection. Successfully advanced to Huang-rank Low-grade body technique: Streamlight Step!"
Jiang Chen froze in place, his mind blank as the mechanical prompts echoed inside his head.
What… what is going on?
Memories surfaced in a rush. He remembered hiking on Mount Emei's Golden Summit, slipping, and falling off a cliff.
But when he woke up—he was here. In this strange room.
"I… transmigrated? And… a hundredfold cultivation system came with me?"
He had merely taken a single step, and his basic footwork had instantly reached perfection, evolving into a Huang-rank technique!
If this wasn't a dream, then… this system was ridiculously powerful!
To test it, Jiang Chen subconsciously used the newly learned Streamlight Step.
In the blink of an eye, his figure blurred and shot forward like a streak of light, appearing several meters away.
"Ding! You used Streamlight Step. Gained 20×100 experience!"
"Ding! Your Streamlight Step has reached Minor Mastery!"
It's real.
Jiang Chen's heart pounded wildly. He had actually joined the ranks of those legendary "transmigrators"—and with a system no less!
It took him a long moment to calm down. Finally, he lifted his head, studying his surroundings, while sorting through the strange memories now imprinted in his mind.
This world was called the Shenwu Continent—a land where martial might ruled.
Cultivators here advanced through realms: Body Tempering, Qi Refining , Foundation Establishment , Core Formation , Transformation, and Divine Sea.
The body he now inhabited belonged to someone also named Jiang Chen, the only son of Jiang Wuya, patriarch of one of the three great families in Cangshan City, under Lingyun Prefecture of the Great Xia Kingdom.
But this Jiang Chen was different from the prodigies of his clan.
He was talentless.
At fifteen, his strength had barely reached the second level of Body Tempering—the laughingstock among the Jiang family's younger generation.
Desperate to secure his son's future, Jiang Wuya made a mysterious deal with Lingyun Martial Mansion, the supreme power in Lingyun Prefecture. In exchange for Jiang Wuya's services, the Mansion admitted Jiang Chen as a student.
But Jiang Wuya never returned.
Yesterday, Lingyun Martial Mansion sent Jiang Chen his admission token.
But before Jiang Chen could rejoice, Jiang Yunhong, another family member, arrived—demanding he give up his spot at the Mansion.
Of course, Jiang Chen refused. His father had risked his life for this opportunity. How could he hand it over?
The two fought. Jiang Yunhong severely injured him with a single punch… and in the end, Jiang Chen died.
The real Jiang Chen.
And now, the soul of a different Jiang Chen had taken over this body.
"Jiang Yunhong… shameless bastard. Truly bullying me to death!"
Rage surged through him. He clenched his fist and drove it into the wall.
"Ding! You threw a punch. Gained 10×100 experience for Basic Fist Technique!"
"Ding! Your Basic Fist Technique has reached perfection. Successfully advanced to Huang-rank Low-grade martial art: Gravel Fist!"
Jiang Chen's eyes widened. In an instant, a flood of knowledge filled his mind—the mastery of a Huang-rank fist technique: Gravel Fist.
This… this system is insane!
One step, and his basic footwork advanced to a Huang-rank technique.
One punch, and his basic fist technique evolved into Gravel Fist.
If I keep walking and punching… can't I upgrade these Huang-rank arts all the way to Heaven-rank?!
Excitement boiled in his chest.
On the Shenwu Continent, martial arts were divided into four grades: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Huang—each further split into Low, Mid, and High subgrades.
And I can evolve them all… just by moving?
"This Hundredfold Cultivation System… it's basically a cheat that makes me stronger anytime I want."
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Chen calmed himself.
If I gain this much experience just walking and punching, how much will I get when I actually cultivate?
Suppressing his excitement, he crossed his legs and sank into a meditative state, beginning his first cultivation session in this new life.
