Zhenwu Continent.

The capital of the Wu Kingdom.

In a dimly lit room, a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, sat with a frown.

His mind was somewhat troubled at the moment.

He was originally an ordinary college student on Earth, but after drinking too much at a graduation party, he woke up in this unfamiliar world.

From the memories of the original body's owner, he learned that this was a world where martial arts were extremely prosperous.

The strongest martial artists could destroy mountains and split peaks, transcend the mortal realm and become saints, and even shattering the void was not just a legend.

He was in the strongest imperial dynasty in this world.

And his identity was actually a Jinyiwei.

This starting point was quite satisfactory for him; after all, he had a stable job and a house in the capital.

The reason for this identity was that the original body's owner's father was a Jinyiwei.

After his father died in the line of duty, he inherited his father's Jinyiwei identity.

Although he was just an ordinary Jinyiwei, his salary was enough to make ends meet.

The place he lived in now was the old family home. Although it was in the capital's slum area, it was still decent.

Just as he was lost in thought, a mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"Strongest Martial Arts System binding successful."

"Huh?"

Hearing the mechanical voice, Lin Xiao knew it was the perk of being a transmigrator – the legendary System had arrived.

"What functions do you have?"

"This System can help the host become the strongest martial artist."

"It will release missions from time to time with generous rewards. The host can voluntarily choose whether to accept the missions; there is no penalty for not accepting them."

"Each time a mission is completed, you will receive additional mission points, which can be exchanged for goods of equivalent value in the System Mall."

"The System Mall includes Cultivation Methods, elixirs, divine weapons, and other items to assist the host in cultivating martial arts."

Hearing the System's answer, Lin Xiao felt a bit more at ease.

After all, this world was too dangerous, and only with great strength could he protect himself.

Although he didn't know how he suddenly arrived in this world.

But since he was here, he had to survive to the fullest.

And the primary condition for survival was powerful strength.

In this world that revered martial arts, only the strong could make choices.

"Ding, the System's beginner's gift package has been issued. Please claim it, host."

"Beginner's gift package?"

Lin Xiao's expression brightened. Everyone said that the beginning was the hardest part. He had just been figuring out how to survive the most difficult development period.

With the beginner's gift package, he could also speed up his path to becoming strong.

"Claim."

"Ding, beginner's gift package claimed successfully. Rewards are as follows."

"Beginner Cultivation Method: Purple Mist Divine Skill (Max Level)."

"Beginner Martial Skill: Blood Sabre Technique (Max Level)."

"Beginner Movement Technique: Divine Swift Travel (Max Level)."

Seeing these three rewards, Lin Xiao did not hesitate and immediately began to cultivate.

Purple Mist Divine Skill.

In his previous life, it was the sect-protecting ultimate skill of the Hua Shan Sect in the wuxia novel The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.

As a Taoist cultivation method, the further one cultivated, the stronger their power became.

And it had excellent foundational effects.

Legend had it that the Purple Mist Divine Skill was derived from Wang Chongyang's Innate Skill and was a supreme Taoist cultivation method.

When cultivated to the extreme, upon circulating energy, purple mist would emanate from the face; the deeper the purple mist, the stronger the power.

Furthermore, Taoist cultivation methods focused on accumulating strength gradually for a powerful outburst.

Now that he had obtained the max-level Purple Mist Divine Skill, as long as the System's infusion was complete, he could directly bring the Purple Mist Divine Skill to great accomplishment.

BOOM!!!

A profound cultivation method appeared in his mind, and then the power of the max-level Purple Mist Divine Skill began to manifest throughout his limbs and bones.

The martial arts realms in this world were divided into Acquired Realm, Innate Realm, Grandmaster Realm, Great Grandmaster Realm, Void Shattering Realm, Martial Saint, and Terrestrial Immortal.

Previously, Lin Xiao wasn't even an Acquired Realm martial artist, at best a third-rate one.

Above third-rate martial artists were second-rate, then first-rate.

Only by breaking through the realm of a first-rate martial artist could one be considered an Acquired Realm martial artist.

From third-rate to first-rate, martial artists cultivated internal energy. They had to open thirty-six acupoints in their bodies to break through to the Acquired Realm.

To go from Acquired to Innate, one needed to unblock the one hundred and eight major acupoints throughout the body.

Finally, by connecting the two bridges of heaven and earth, one could be considered Innate.

Innate Realm martial artists were already considered experts.

Their True Qi could manifest externally, making them incredibly powerful.

As for Grandmasters.

It was said they could shape True Qi, possess immense combat power, and easily behead enemy generals in the midst of a thousand soldiers.

In the martial world, Grandmasters could establish sects and found families.

In the imperial court, they could hold important positions and command armies.

Above Grandmasters were Great Grandmasters.

They were essentially the foundation of a sect. With every move, they could easily divert rivers and alter the weather, their power truly terrifying.

The obvious mark of a Great Grandmaster was the ability to fly.

In the memories of the original body's owner, the known Great Grandmasters were seemingly only the Jinyiwei's Commander Qilin and the four Great Pacification Envoys: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

The Jinyiwei Grand Commander was the highest-ranking, named Qilin, and directly answered to the current ruler of the Wu Kingdom, the Emperor who reigned over the land.

Below the Grand Pacification Office were four regional Pacification Offices.

These were the Southeast, Northwest, Southwest, and Northeast, each headed by a Pacification Envoy.

Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

Under each Pacification Envoy were Thousand-Household Commanders, Deputy Thousand-Household Commanders, Hundred-Household Commanders, Deputy Hundred-Household Commanders, Banner Chiefs, Xiaoqi, and so on.

The Jinyiwei had a very strict hierarchy. As one of the Wu Kingdom's martial power departments, they were extremely rigorous both externally and internally.

Of course, other martial power departments also existed, but he wasn't very familiar with the specifics.

As for the realm above Great Grandmaster, the Void Shattering Realm, its obvious characteristic was the ability to shatter space, beheading someone a thousand miles away as easily as picking something up from a pocket.

As time passed.

An hour had gone by.

Lin Xiao finally finished receiving the Purple Mist Divine Skill rewarded by the System.

BOOM!!!

A powerful aura erupted from Lin Xiao's body, which he then slowly retracted.

The tables and chairs in the room were all blown askew by the immense force.

However, Lin Xiao didn't have time to worry about anything else.

He opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing through them, and slowly clenched his fist.

The intoxicatingly powerful feeling left him very satisfied.

He felt it carefully.

His realm had already broken through from a third-rate martial artist to the peak of the Acquired Realm.

Just one step away from breaking through to the Innate Realm.

After all, the Purple Mist Divine Skill was a Cultivation Method from a low-martial world. It was already quite good that it allowed him to reach the peak of the Acquired Realm.

But there was no need to rush. Now that he had the System, breaking through to the Innate Realm was only a matter of time.

Once he became an Innate Realm martial artist, he could barely be considered to have the power of self-preservation.

Even though this world was filled with many martial arts experts.

Within the capital of the Wu Kingdom alone, there were no shortage of Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters.

But one had to remember, this was the Wu Kingdom's capital.

Even a supreme expert in the Void Shattering Realm would have to shed some skin here.

However, if one left the capital and ventured into the martial world, an Innate Realm martial artist would absolutely have a place.

Whether it was becoming an guest elder of a sect.

Or a retainer for a family, the treatment would be very generous, and life would be very comfortable.

This was the status possessed by an Innate Realm martial artist.

Within any power, they were the backbone.

"Good, without further ado, the next step is martial skills and movement techniques."

Lin Xiao no longer hesitated and continued to cultivate the Blood Sabre Technique and Divine Swift Travel.

The Blood Sabre Technique is a cultivation method from the Blood Sabre Sect in the wuxia novel A Deadly Secret.

It is said to be recorded within the Blood Sabre Scripture, the Blood Sabre Sect's most prized cultivation method.

The Blood Sabre Technique is tricky, ruthless, and venomous; every move and every strike is designed to kill.

When cultivated to the ultimate mastery realm, each move is accompanied by a pervasive blood-red shadow, not only dealing physical damage but also affecting the opponent's mind.

After comprehending the Blood Sabre Technique.

Lin Xiao exhaled a breath of stale air and couldn't help but praise it with a single word: "Perfect."

Divine Swift Travel.

A cultivation method from the Iron Sword Sect in the wuxia novel Sword Stained with Royal Blood from his previous life.

Created by Daoist Mu Sang.

It is a relatively superior movement technique cultivation method.

When cultivated to its peak, one's movements become as agile as a monkey's, making it impossible for any enemy attack to even graze them.

After receiving these three cultivation methods.

Even though Lin Xiao's current strength is only at the peak of the Acquired Realm, he can still fight against ordinary Innate Realm experts.
