Vinina Polenas!

Bang!

America, Washington Base City, inside an alloy tower dozens of meters tall at the Polenas Family Core, a thunderous boom suddenly erupted, followed by approving laughter.

"Not bad!"

"Punch power: 987 kg. Speed: 26 m/s. You've already crossed the threshold of a Quasi-Warrior. Vinina, you're only sixteen this year, right? With this talent, you have a great chance of reaching the War God Level in the future."

The source of the laughter was a White Man dressed in an elegant suit with short blond hair. The Vinina he spoke of was a tall Blonde White Girl with exquisite, striking features, dressed in a fitted white combat suit.

She had also been the one responsible for that booming sound just now.

His biological younger sister—Vinina Polenas.

However, although they were brother and sister, the Blonde White Girl's attitude toward him was exceptionally cold. Faced with his praise, she merely nodded slightly before turning and leaving. As he watched her retreating figure, the White Man's expression remained unchanged.

The Polenas Family was one of the HR Alliance's nine most core families. Even biological siblings within the family were bound to compete with one another, let alone Direct Descendants like them.

Strangers who happened to be relatives were the norm.

The only reason he had come to curry favor with her was because this sister posed no threat to his status and still had some value.

For Vinina Polenas, this relationship was actually a good thing.

After all, she was Vinina Polenas, but she was also Weina.

A transmigrator.

After merely one night's sleep, he had arrived in this world. He had gone from an Unlucky College Student who had just graduated and was waiting to receive the blessings of 996 work culture into a Beautiful Girl of distinguished birth and exceptional talent—Vinina Polenas.

Yes, that Vinina Polenas, the popular early-stage villain from Swallowed Star.

She had been nicknamed "Auntie."

Her final fate had been to face judgment under Luo Feng's pressure and receive the death penalty!

As she recalled this part of the plot, Vinina could not help but reveal a helpless expression.

From an observer's perspective, no one had truly been in the wrong in this matter. There had only been losers.

After all, in the world of Swallowed Star, where Strong Dominate Everything and Weak Can Only Obey, where people were At Others' Mercy, Luo Feng killing Li Wei was normal. Li Yao and Vinina seeking revenge after losing their only son was also normal. Luo Feng resisting to protect his family and preserve himself, then killing them in return, was equally reasonable.

Neither side had done anything wrong. To put it bluntly, the only reason for the final outcome was that Li Yao and Vinina had Insufficient Strength.

Their fists were not big enough!

Of course, Li Wei was not included in the comparison.

That guy had been a complete idiot. He had grown used to being arrogant and domineering, believing he could look down on everything, only to be Capsized in a Gutter and die at Luo Feng's hands. He had gotten what he deserved.

Thinking of this, Vinina let out a soft sigh.

For her, the only thing that could still be considered good news was the era she was currently in.

Year 2030 AD. Nine years had passed since the end of the Great Nirvana, and Luo Feng would not be born for another eight years. She was still only sixteen, and Li Yao was merely a Marriage Partner to her. Nothing had happened yet, and everything could still be changed.

Moreover, under this world's Cultivation System, Eternal Immortality truly existed.

Since things had come to this, she could only press onward with all her strength.

Even if she could not become immortal, with Vinina's talent in the Original Work—reaching High-level War God in her forties—and Lord Luo as her Golden Thigh, Long Life Hope would not be difficult.

What was more, as a transmigrator, everyone else had a Golden Finger, so naturally, she had one too.

But Vinina could not describe exactly what it was. She only knew that ever since she had transmigrated, two words had been flashing in the lower-left corner of her vision:

Inheritance!

She did not know what it specifically was.

However, somewhere deep down, she seemed to know that this thing would activate once she became a Martial Artist.

A Quasi-Warrior?

Although this realm was considered the threshold to becoming a Martial Artist, it still had the word "quasi" in it. It did not belong to the Warrior Ranks. Only after completing the first Gene Primal Energy Cultivation, allowing Cosmic Energy to merge into one's cells and become one's own energy, could one truly be considered to have entered the Warrior Realm.

Mm, this realm could also be called Apprentice Level.

After returning to her residence, Vinina impatiently entered the Underground Training Room. She crossed her legs, turned the soles of her feet upward, her snow-white toes trembling slightly. She placed her hands on her legs with her Palms facing upward and kept her waist and back straight.

Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method!

This was also Earth's only Gene Primal Energy Cultivation method. One had to reach Quasi-Warrior Level in punch power, speed, and Nerve Reaction Speed before beginning cultivation.

Its principle was to integrate Cosmic Energy into every cell throughout the body, allowing the bones, cells, blood, Internal Organs, skin, and even genes to evolve and improve.

The first absorption was the most difficult, but it also brought the greatest gains.

Normally, talented individuals could sense Cosmic Energy during their first cultivation session. As long as they could sense it, the remaining absorption would be easy. The Guidance Techniques collected by the Polenas Family could not compare to those created by the two Legendary Figures, Hong and Thor, but they were still far better than the Common Goods on the market.

"Breathe in, breathe out."

Vinina gradually steadied her breathing, her heart becoming as still as water.

Relaxation. Calmness.

These were the two points most emphasized in the Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method.

Vinina had complete confidence in her own talent. After all, she had been able to reach High-level War God in her previous life. While that talent might not amount to much in the Vast Universe, it was more than sufficient for Entry-level Cultivation on Earth.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

In the absolute silence, time passed second by second.

Only when Vinina's state had nearly approached sleep did she vaguely sense faint traces of aura passing through the soles of her feet, her Palms, and the Baihui acupoint atop her head, slowly seeping into her body.

"That's the feeling!"

Vinina instantly jolted awake.

Amid her delight, her consciousness fully focused on the soles of her feet, her Palms, and the Baihui acupoint atop her head. She sensed those faint, tiny yet undeniably real traces of aura entering her body bit by bit.

"This is Cosmic Energy?"

Vinina murmured softly, but her movements did not stop in the slightest. She immediately switched from the Five Hearts Upwards Cultivation Method to the Guidance Technique collected by the Polenas Family, forming the intention to "Absorb Cosmic Energy."

At once, the originally faint and tiny threads of Cosmic Energy surged violently into Vinina's Delicate Body like a river bursting through a dam.

It was a Trembling Sensation that reached deep into her bones!

The Formless and Colorless Cosmic Energy entered her body and was instantly devoured by every cell within it!

Apprentice Level.

Although it was the most basic stage in the Vast Universe's Cultivation System, crossing into it was still a leap in her Life Level!
