Ye Family of Fengyuan

Fengyuan City.

Four Great Families of Fengyuan, Ye Family Ancestral Land, core descendants' district, Room B-8.

Where was this?

A seemingly plain youth dressed in azure robes lay on his side on the bed.

The youth gazed at the familiar yet unfamiliar redwood ceiling before him, gradually calming down from his confusion.

The youth was named Ye Feng. He was a direct descendant of the Ye Family, one of the Four Great Families of Fengyuan, and the only son of the Ye Family's previous Family Head.

According to his memories, after returning to his room, he had awakened memories of his past life on Blue Star. As he was only eight years old, the impact of that vast flood of memories on his little head had caused him to faint.

After sorting through his thoughts, Ye Feng finally understood something that had troubled him for a long time.

Ye Feng's father, the previous Ye Family Head, possessed extraordinary talent. Even among the talented generations of the Ye Family throughout its history, he could rank among the top five. Although his mother did not possess the same lofty talent as his father, she was a direct descendant of the Lin Family, one of the Four Great Families of Fengyuan, and could still be considered a minor genius.

As the child of those two, he should have possessed decent Bone Structure as well. Yet he only had Mortal Grade Low Rank Bone Structure.

If Father Ye had not personally watched him being born, he would have thought the child had been switched.

Several similar cases had appeared throughout the history of the Li Kingdom. When the parents possessed extraordinary talent but the child had poor Bone Structure, it stood at the opposite pole from Ancestral Reversion Mutation—a mutation in an unfavorable direction.

Fortunately, Ye Feng's father, Ye Changming, quickly accepted this fact. Once he understood that his son's aptitude made a long life impossible, he applied to the Lineage to resign as Family Head and chose to work behind the scenes, becoming a Heaven-tier Elder of the Ye Family.

After becoming a Heaven-tier Elder, Ye Changming had no more mundane affairs to handle, giving him more time to cultivate and accompany his family.

However, after awakening his Blue Star memories, Ye Feng now understood why his Bone Structure was only Mortal Grade Low Rank. The reason was the Ancient Bead that had followed him from Blue Star. Ever since his rebirth, while he had still been in his mother's womb, this bead had been absorbing his nourishment. As a result, all the nutrients his mother had given him had been sucked away by the bead. The only reason he had not died in the womb was that Ye Changming's seed had been strong enough.

This bead had been something Ye Feng bought for tens of thousands from a friend who specialized in antique appraisal in his previous life. Not long after obtaining it, Ye Feng had fallen ill and died young.

Just as Ye Feng wanted to investigate the bead in his mind, he discovered that the bead which had resided there for eight years had transformed into a cloud of golden mist and vanished.

Before he could recover from his daze, a game-like Status Panel appeared before him. Ye Feng was overjoyed when he saw it.

Eight years. His Golden Finger had finally arrived!

In a world where one could live forever and cultivate all kinds of Great Supernatural Powers and spells, no one was willing to live an ordinary life as an ordinary person. Although his status would allow him to enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of his life, if given a choice, he still hoped to become someone who towered above his generation and suppressed the ages for eternity.

The light of hope ignited in Ye Feng's heart. He hoped to use this to change his current situation of weak Bone Structure. Very quickly, he examined his Status Panel.

Name: Ye Feng

Race: Human Race

Bone Structure: Mortal Grade Low Rank

Physique: None

Realm: Body Tempering Realm Fourth Level

Martial Skill Supernatural Power: Yellow Grade High Rank—Mountain Shaking Fist (Proficiency 15/100), Beginner Level

Talent: Innate Dual Soul (his divine soul was twice that of a Normal Person)

Remaining Simulation Times: 1 (one free simulation per natural month)

The Status Panel's data was concise and clear. Only now did Ye Feng truly believe that he had obtained a Golden Finger. The information on the panel matched what he knew without the slightest difference, and some of it was even beyond his own knowledge.

The reason he had been able to reach the Body Tempering Realm Fourth Level with Mortal Grade Low Rank Bone Structure was entirely because his parents had given him quite a few Spiritual Materials to consume. Otherwise, it would have been utterly impossible for an ordinary person with such Bone Structure to reach the Body Tempering Realm Fourth Level in eight years.

Just as Ye Feng wanted to attempt a simulation, a knock sounded from outside the door.

"Young Master, this servant has brought the medicinal brew the Matriarch made for you."

From the voice alone, Ye Feng knew that Mother Lin Lan had made this medicinal brew to raise his cultivation and had the servants deliver it to him at fixed times. Because it was too bitter, his former self had been reluctant to drink it.

"Leave it at the door. I have something to do. I'll bring it in later," Ye Feng said.

After a faint sound came from outside, he knew the servant had set down the medicinal brew and left.

After the person left, Ye Feng hurriedly checked the surroundings. Once he confirmed that no one would disturb him, he looked at the Status Panel.

[System, begin the life simulation.]

[The first life simulation began.]

[First year: Your name was Ye Feng. You were a direct descendant of the Ye Family, one of the Four Great Families of Fengyuan City. Having awakened your memories, you swore to change your ordinary circumstances and sought a way to alter your Bone Structure. Although your aptitude was poor, your parents gave you no small standing within the Ye Family. Relying on this, you searched through the Ye Family's book collection and investigated every method you could find to change Bone Structure. Without exception, none were something you could accomplish at present. The simplest method was to find several Precious Herbs of at least Earth Grade.]

[After learning of your situation, you were utterly dejected. Half a month later, you pulled yourself together again and decided not to remain lost in confusion. You began cultivating diligently, but with your poor aptitude, your cultivation advanced at an extremely slow pace. The medicinal brew your mother sent you was several times faster than your own cultivation. Even so, you still did not give up cultivating and continued to train painstakingly.]
