1: My cultivation speed has increased by a tiny bit!

[Brain...]

[What is that... O.o?]

[Storage~]

----

"Useless! You infuriate me!"

"Who can tell me how Lin You got to where he is now?"

"Get out here, all of you, and get yourselves expelled from the ancestral register, now!"

Moyun Star Domain.

Inside the Lin Family Ancestral Hall.

A group of Elders looked like bitter gourds, staring at Lin You, who stood silently below them.

Grand Elder Lin Tao cursed loudly, his beard bristling and eyes wide.

He wished he could hang up this good-for-nothing fellow and beat him severely.

"Grand..."

"Grand Elder, my cultivation is completely lost... I didn't expect it either..."

"Can you blame me for this...?"

Lin You spoke timidly, like a wronged young wife.

He was a Transmigrator.

His body belonged to this world, but his Soul didn't!

Who the hell knew how to Cultivate?

He had been pondering for half a month, finally figuring out the Cultivation method, which was even more complex than a dictionary.

But because his Soul and body were not of the same origin,

overnight,

he transformed from a Genius in the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown Realm to a useless person who couldn't even begin Body Tempering.

But because he was the Family Young Lord,

he managed to hide it for half a year without being discovered.

Now...

The Prodigy Grand Competition was about to begin, and the Family had come to check on his Cultivation progress... Lin Tao was furious, his beard bristling and eyes wide.

"You still dare to argue!"

"Your Cultivation is your own doing; if I don't blame you, should I blame this old man?"

"Damn it, drag him out and give him thirty heavy blows."

"No, three hundred heavy blows!"

As soon as these words were spoken,

the other Elders in the main hall quickly tried to dissuade him.

"Grand Elder, no! Three hundred heavy blows are unbearable for the current Lin You!"

"Yes, Grand Elder, Lin You will be beaten to death!"

"He is, after all, the sole heir of our Lin Family... Everyone, we must find a solution quickly..."

Lin Tao, who was already fuming, became even more enraged at this moment.

"Find a solution?"

"Come, come, tell me what solution there can be!"

"There are only three days left until the Prodigy Grand Competition of the Heavens; can I conjure Cultivation out of thin air for him?"

Upon hearing of the Prodigy Grand Competition,

the Elders immediately deflated.

That was a matter concerning the life and death of the Lin Family.

Lin You was originally their only hope, but now... alas... Sighs echoed through the hall.

Their gazes at Lin You were filled with bitter sadness.

[Ding!]

[Detected host in a low point, Awakening Super Cultivation System!]

[Cultivating for one day can equal a hundred days of others' Cultivation!]

[After completing tasks, Cultivation time can be critically boosted!]

[Newbie Task issued: Regain the Lin Family's support!]

[Task Reward: Critical Hit Roulette x1]

[Critical Hit Duration: 3 days!]

The moment the System prompt sounded in his mind, Lin You couldn't help but clench his fists.

What did I say?

Transmigration without a System?

What's the point of playing then!

I've already Transmigrated, and I'm not allowed to be the protagonist?

Half a year!

Do you know how I spent these past six months?

Lin You was in tears, a thousand alpacas galloping through his mind.

Those days of repeatedly pretending, feigning that he still had Cultivation,

were gone forever!

Cultivation Critical Hit.

I am a Genius!

Seeing Lin You shed tears, the Elders couldn't help but sigh.

Poor child.

After a long while,

someone finally spoke.

"Forget it, forget it, it's not easy for anyone."

"Lin You didn't want to lose his Cultivation; perhaps someone secretly interfered, and we didn't notice."

"Lin Family... at worst, we'll go develop in a lower-Rank Star Domain."

"Ultimately, this is our dereliction of duty."

The other Elders showed reluctance but could only nod.

Who made Lin You the Lin Family's sole heir?

Star Domains are divided into nine Ranks.

Upper three Ranks, middle three Ranks, lower three Ranks.

The hierarchy is so strict, comparable to the Blue Star's third brother.

The upper three Ranks govern all heavens, enjoying their prosperity and collecting the Dao fruits of myriad worlds.

The middle three Ranks can extract Dao fruits and Magic Treasures from their own Realms and collect Dao fruits from all under heaven for the upper Ranks.

As for the lowest three Ranks... they are almost no different from servants, forbidden from touching any Star Domain resources, and no one is allowed to Break through to the Martial Immortal Realm.

Violators will surely be suppressed by the Longevity Family!

The Lin Family emerged from the Ninth-Grade Star Domain's Mortal Realm, each member bearing heavy responsibilities.

They devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the Family.

This is how they raised the obscure Lin Family from a Ninth-Grade Star Domain to a Seventh-Rank Star Domain.

One must know,

between Star Domains, every Rank difference

means a world of difference in Cultivation resources.

Not to mention the complex network of connections and the effort of these past years.

If they had to do it again...

the Lin Family might not be able to return to the Seventh-Rank Star Domain.

And in the path of Cultivation, the further one progresses, the more difficult it becomes to bear offspring.

By the time the Lin Family stabilized, those Elders, due to their high Cultivation, were almost unable to have children.

Only Lin You, this sole heir,

was left behind before the death of his father, the former Lin Family Patriarch.

And Lin You's mother

also died after giving birth to him.

Seeing that everyone was prepared to return to a lower-Rank Star Domain,

Lin You spoke.

His eyes blazed like fire, and he clenched his fists.

"Three days!"

"Give me three days!"

"What kind of Prodigy Grand Competition? I'll handle it."

"Please, Elders, believe me one more time!"

Only silence answered him.

The Elders, whose Cultivation reached the heavens, now wore various expressions.

But in their gazes, there was a hint of pity?

Lin You looked at them.

"Elders, what is this?"

Grand Elder Lin Tao suddenly burst into tears, beating his chest and stomping his feet, as if he wanted to shatter the Void Realm.

"Lin Aotian."

"It is this old man who has failed you!"

"Your only son, under this old man's care, actually suffered Qi Deviation, saying he'll handle the Prodigy Grand Competition in three days!"

"I..."

As he spoke,

Lin Tao turned his palm inward, about to end his own life with a single strike.

Fortunately, everyone reacted quickly and stopped him.

Lin You's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

"Grand Elder, I didn't suffer Qi Deviation..."

Second Elder Lin Tianshui also spoke, his old face wrinkled.

"Silly child, you're talking nonsense from Cultivating."

"It's okay, be good."

"The Grand Elder was just angry earlier, we don't blame you."

"You just focus on yourself; now that you have no Cultivation, quickly give us a few more little babies."

"Our Lin Family still has hope to start over."

The other Elders also nodded in agreement.

Their expressions seemed to say that his only task now was to be a stud.

Lin You was anxious.

"No!"

"You have to believe me, three days, I really can handle it!"

Second Elder Lin Tianshui pointed with a large hand, and a Medicinal Pill instantly appeared in the Void Realm.

"Someone."

"Can't you see Young Master is delirious?"

"He wants to Break through five Realms in three days, from Body Tempering directly to Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown."

"I have a Clear Heart and Righteous Soul Pill here; feed it to Young Master!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

several Shadow Guards appeared from the Void Realm.

Dressed in black, with black masks, they were silent and swift.

They took the Medicinal Pill and forcefully pinched Lin You, feeding it into his mouth.

"Young Master, apologies."

Lin You: "Mmm... You bastards... Wait!"

Before he could speak,

a Medicinal Pill entered his body.

[Ding!]

[Detected a Newbie Gift Pack, open now?]

"Open it, open it quickly!"

"What were you doing all this time!"

[Critical Hit Roulette x1]

[Critical Hit Duration: One day!]

[Reward Initial Cultivation: Body Tempering Realm First Level!]

With a rumble,

a burst of unusual sound erupted from within Lin You's body.

Immediately after,

an invisible wave of Qi spread out from his body surface.

Body Tempering Realm.

Achieved!
