8: Chapter 8 First Feedback: Winning Makes Me Numb

In the Infirmary, Lin Fan sat on the hospital bed, his hands trembling slightly.

It was not fear, but excitement.

The memories of his past life flashed rapidly through his mind: the betrayal of Jiang Mingyue and Zhang Yulong, those two long swords that pierced his chest, and their final words regarding the "Destiny Sect" and "Transplanting Talent"...

Lin Fan took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

Rebirth.

He really had experienced Rebirth.

He looked down at his chest, and sure enough, a jade pendant was hanging there. It was cyan in color, the size of two fingers, and engraved with ancient patterns. This was the only heirloom left to him by his parents, which he had worn since childhood and never let leave his side.

In his past life, he had always thought it was just an ordinary souvenir.

It wasn't until the moment before his death, when his blood dyed the jade pendant red, that he realized—

This was a spatial Divine Artifact.

"My Rebirth should also be related to you, right?"

Lin Fan muttered to himself, his fingers gently stroking the surface of the jade pendant.

In the next second, his consciousness was suddenly pulled by a powerful suction force, his vision went black, and he felt as if his whole being had fallen into a bottomless abyss.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in a strange space.

Everything around was gray and boundless. Under his feet was nothingness, yet it felt as if he were stepping on solid ground. The air was filled with an ancient and vast aura, as if this place had existed for billions of years.

In the very center of the space floated a ball of soft light.

Lin Fan approached, and the ball of light suddenly exploded, turning into countless golden runes that surged into his mind like a tidal wave!

"Ah...!"

Lin Fan let out a muffled groan, his whole body freezing in place.

Those runes seemed to come alive, circling, combining, and evolving within his Sea of Consciousness, eventually condensing into an incomparably profound Cultivation Technique—the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture!

At the same time, a massive amount of information poured into his memory like a sudden enlightenment.

"This... this is actually a Divine-Grade Cultivation Technique, and it's even High Grade Divine-Grade."

After receiving that information, Lin Fan was shocked beyond measure. At the same time, suppressing the excitement in his heart, he wondered, "Isn't the highest Cultivation Technique only Heaven-Grade? There's actually a Divine-Grade? Could it be a Cultivation Technique above Heaven-Grade?"

In his past life, he was only a second-grade Martial Master with limited knowledge, and he had only cultivated a High Grade Yellow-Grade Cultivation Technique provided by the Jiang Family.

But compared to the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, it was incredibly weak. It absorbed the ten thousand Daos into oneself, governing the ten thousand Daos.

This Cultivation Technique was simply Heaven-Defying!

"Hahaha..."

Lin Fan couldn't help but look up and laugh loudly.

Jiang Mingyue, Zhang Yulong, and the Jiang Family, just you wait!

In this life, I, Lin Fan, will definitely make you pay for your blood debts!

After laughing, Lin Fan forced himself to calm down.

It was now one month before the Martial Dao college entrance examination. His younger sister, Lin Xiaoyu, hadn't undergone Awakening, and he was still just an ordinary person with a D-Rank Talent.

No, that's not right.

Lin Fan suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly sat cross-legged, starting to circulate his Qi according to the methods of the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture.

After circulating the Cultivation Technique for one cycle, he suddenly opened his eyes, a look of wild joy appearing on his face.

The Ten Thousand Dao Scripture actually ignored the limitations of talent, directly absorbing energy of all attributes, and the speed was more than a thousand times faster than the High Grade Yellow-Grade Cultivation Technique he had practiced in his past life!

And this was just after he had obtained the Legacy, with low proficiency in the Cultivation Technique.

Lin Fan trembled with excitement.

In his past life, he had risked his life to kill exotic beasts and explore various Secret Realms, but due to insufficient talent, he had only reached a two-star Martial Master before he died.

With this Cultivation Technique, he was confident that he could Breakthrough to Martial Master in a short time, and in the future, he might even have the opportunity to become a Martial Emperor or Martial Venerable.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan didn't delay any longer. He sat cross-legged on the hospital bed, closing his eyes tightly.

The Ten Thousand Dao Scripture slowly circulated within his body, and an invisible suction force radiated from him. The surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi seemed to have been summoned, frantically gathering toward his body.

If anyone walked into the Infirmary at this moment, they would definitely be stunned by the sight—a layer of colorful halos had emerged around Lin Fan's body. Those halos pulsed like living things, brightening and dimming with his breathing.

The Spiritual Qi entered his body, traveling along the Meridians according to the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture's circulation path.

Lin Fan could clearly feel that wherever the Spiritual Qi passed, his Meridians trembled slightly, as if a long-dried riverbed had finally welcomed sweet spring water.

In his past life, when he practiced the Yellow-Grade Cultivation Technique, the circulation of Spiritual Qi was as slow as a tortoise crawling; every time he cultivated, it took a lot of time to refine even a trace of Spiritual Qi.

But now—

"It's too fast..."

Lin Fan was shocked.

One cycle of the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture refined an amount of Spiritual Qi that was equivalent to a whole day of cultivation in his past life! Moreover, this Spiritual Qi was incomparably pure, completely free of Impurities, and directly fused into his blood qi, pushing his blood qi value to climb rapidly.

97 points... 98 points... 99 points... 100 points!

In less than half an hour, Lin Fan's blood qi value had broken through the 100-point mark!

This meant that he had officially stepped into the Realm of a one-star Martial Apprentice.

"This Ten Thousand Dao Scripture is truly Heaven-Defying. In less than half an hour, it increased my blood qi value by 5 points, allowing me to Breakthrough to a one-star Martial Apprentice."

Lin Fan stopped the circulation of the Cultivation Technique and said with pleasant surprise as he felt the power within his body.

He dared not Cultivate recklessly here; if someone discovered his secret, it would be bad.

"By the way, why am I in the Infirmary? Who hurt me?"

After being excited for a while, Lin Fan finally remembered his own situation.

Touching the wound on his head that had already been bandaged, Lin Fan began to recall everything that had happened before.

Today, Han Ming found him. He didn't know what kind of madness had taken hold of him; he suddenly wanted to take him as a disciple and even gave him one million.

After that, he went to Uncle Zhou's place to buy a blood qi pill, but on the way back, he was knocked unconscious, and he didn't know anything else.

"Wait... Han Ming wants to take me as a disciple? And gave me one million?"

Thinking of this, Lin Fan was confused. Who was Han Ming? A famous playboy who often bullied him, relying on his family background. How could he possibly give him one million?

And he remembered that this didn't happen in his past life, right?

Could it be the butterfly effect from my Rebirth? That's not right either! I, the butterfly, haven't even flapped my wings yet!

"Hmph, no matter what conspiracy you have, you'd better not come to provoke me again, and I hope this time it wasn't you who did it, otherwise..."

Thinking of Han Ming, who often bullied him, a cold glint appeared in Lin Fan's eyes.

Lin Fan didn't think too much about it. He walked out of the Infirmary and left the school; he still had to go back and learn more about his jade pendant space!

He had a premonition that the space was not just for storage.

...

Meanwhile, at the Han Family.

Han Ming, who was boredly scrolling through his phone to understand this world, suddenly heard a prompt from the System in his mind:

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Lin Fan obtained Qiankun Jade Pendant 1, returning Qiankun Bead Fragment 1 to host.]

[Note: Qiankun Bead Jade Pendant is a fragment of the ancient Immortal King artifact, the Qiankun Bead, containing a Cave Heaven World (withered, Spiritual Qi exhausted), which can be repaired.]

"Not bad, is this Lin Fan's spatial jade pendant? It actually contains a Cave Heaven World. Doesn't that mean I'll be carrying a Cave Heaven with me from now on?"

Han Ming stroked the jade pendant that had suddenly appeared in his hand, his eyes lighting up as he said excitedly.

This was a fragment of an ancient Immortal King artifact! Although it only had a storage function for now, as long as he fused it with some Heaven And Earth Treasure with spiritual energy, he could repair it.

By then, he would be carrying a Secret Realm with him, and there would even be a chance to form a small world.

"Haha... Lin Fan is worthy of being the Son of Luck; he is simply my little lucky star."

Han Ming examined the jade pendant in his hand, unable to help but laugh excitedly.

However, it wasn't over yet.

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Lin Fan obtained Immortal-Grade Cultivation Technique Legacy—Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, simultaneously feeding back the Immortal-Grade Cultivation Technique "Ten Thousand Dao Scripture" to the host.]

"What? It's actually an Immortal-Grade Cultivation Technique? Didn't the original work say it was a High Grade Divine-Grade Cultivation Technique?"

But before Han Ming could wonder, a large amount of insights regarding the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture Cultivation Technique surged into his mind...
