"Dou Qi Continent... Black-Corner Region... Canaan Academy... Inner Academy... Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower... I actually transmigrated?"

Inside an antique room, a pale-faced young man struggled to sit up from the bed. He gently rubbed his brow with his right hand to ease the discomfort in his head, murmuring to himself.

The young man was named Qin Hao. He had originally been a corporate drone on twenty-first-century Earth. After graduating from a third-rate university, he had immediately found himself unemployed. Forced by circumstances, he had no choice but to "don yellow robes."

To earn a little "humiliation money," he rode his "invincible wind-fire wheels" through the streets and alleys of the bustling city, hoping that one day his luck would change.

Sure enough, heaven rewarded the diligent. One night, while racing about on his deliveries, he finally ran into "Great Fortune"!

Yes, Great Fortune in the literal sense! A fully loaded freight truck!

When he woke up again, he found himself lying in this unfamiliar room, with countless unfamiliar memories appearing in his mind.

After sorting through the memories in his head, Qin Hao finally understood his situation.

That was right. Because he had collided with "Great Fortune," he had caught up with the transmigration craze and successfully become a glorious transmigrator.

What surprised him even more was that he had actually transmigrated into the famous world of Battle Through the Heavens.

Battle Through the Heavens was the memory of an entire generation. As a bookworm in his previous life, Qin Hao was naturally familiar with it and had even loved it dearly.

Once upon a time, the line, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river—never bully a young man for being poor," had made his blood boil. It was a memory of youth.

Through those memories, Qin Hao also gained a detailed understanding of the identity of this body.

The owner of this body had also been named Qin Hao. Like Qin Hao in his previous life, he had been an orphan. His parents had died in an accident when he was six years old.

Fortunately, like Qinglin in the original story, he had been taken in by a mercenary group. He did odd jobs for the mercenaries and barely managed to support himself.

Because he was clever by nature, he learned a crude qi-breathing method from those mercenaries. At the age of fifteen, he successfully stepped into the Dou Zhe realm.

On the surface, this was four years later than the original protagonist, Xiao Yan, who had condensed a Dou Qi vortex and entered the Dou Zhe realm at eleven.

However, in the original story, Xiao Yan had begun cultivating at the age of four. He was also the third young master of the Xiao Clan, one of Wutan City's three great clans. He had received guidance since childhood and enjoyed the clan's supply of resources.

Qin Hao, on the other hand, had already been over eight years old when he began cultivating and had no resources to assist him. After all, he still had to do plenty of odd jobs for the mercenary group every day. It was already good enough that he could feed himself—where would he get the money to buy cultivation resources?

This showed that the cultivation talent of this body's former owner had absolutely surpassed Xiao Yan's in the early stages of the original story.

After breaking through to the Dou Zhe realm, he took Canaan Academy's assessment and successfully joined Canaan Academy.

He cultivated in the Outer Academy for three years, then displayed considerable talent in alchemy. Relying on that talent, he successfully entered the Inner Academy.

This was his fifth year cultivating in the Inner Academy. He had finally entered the Dou Wang realm and reached the level of a fourth-tier alchemist, successfully graduating from Canaan Academy's Inner Academy.

However, he did not choose to leave Canaan Academy. Instead, he remained in the Inner Academy and became an ordinary elder in the alchemy department.

He had quite a reputation throughout the Inner Academy. After all, he was only twenty-three years old. Such talent was top-tier even in the history of Canaan Academy.

The reason Qin Hao had occupied this body was not possession. More precisely, it could be considered reviving in another's corpse.

In order to gather medicinal ingredients needed for alchemy, the former owner had entered the Magic Beast Forest in the Inner Academy's back mountains. Unfortunately, he encountered a fifth-tier Magic Beast, an Azure Shadow Eagle.

The Azure Shadow Eagle's attack power was not particularly outstanding among fifth-tier Magic Beasts, but its speed was among the best.

Although the former owner had reached the Dou Wang realm, corresponding to fifth-tier Magic Beasts, in battles between humans and Magic Beasts of the same realm, humans were at a disadvantage most of the time.

What was more, he had only just entered the Dou Wang realm and was merely a one-star Dou Wang.

If it had been another fifth-tier Magic Beast, he might have been able to escape if he could not defeat it. Unfortunately, the Azure Shadow Eagle was too fast. Naturally, he met a tragic end.

By the time the Inner Academy's experts arrived, he had already suffered severe injuries. He clearly had not managed to hold on, leaving the body to Qin Hao.

"The youngest elder of Canaan Academy's Inner Academy alchemy department... Dou Wang cultivation, a fourth-tier alchemist. This starting point isn't bad!"

It had to be said that Qin Hao truly was someone who had run into "Great Fortune." The foundation of the body he possessed was excellent. This starting point was undeniably high.

Compared to the vast majority of transmigrators, his starting point was already quite good.

A Dou Wang and a fourth-tier alchemist might not amount to much in the Central Plains. But in the Northwestern Continent, he already counted as a respectable expert, especially at such a young age.

"But... where's my cheat? I'm someone who ran into 'Great Fortune.' I can't possibly not have a cheat, right? Aren't cheats standard equipment for every transmigrator?"

As if suddenly remembering something, Qin Hao murmured again as he carefully examined his body.

Unfortunately, to his disappointment, no matter how hard he searched or called out, he received no response whatsoever.

"No way? There really isn't one? Could it be that the 'Great Fortune' I ran into was fake? How am I supposed to get by without a cheat..."

After a long while, Qin Hao finally gave up, his face filled with deep disappointment.

At this moment, he could only accept the fact that he had no cheat.

Although his cultivation talent was not bad, given his current status, without some external cheat, it would be impossible for him to become a true top-tier expert.

Dou Zong was practically his upper limit. As for Dou Zun, without a powerful opportunity, the possibility was almost nonexistent.

The Dou Zong realm was still considered fairly impressive in the early stages, but later on, one would not even qualify as cannon fodder.

Since he had transmigrated into this world, as a transmigrator, being unable to stand at the peak of this world would undoubtedly be an enormous regret. Naturally, he was unwilling to accept that.

"Do I have to steal the protagonist's opportunities?"

A thought suddenly appeared in Qin Hao's mind, but the moment it arose, he snuffed it out.

It was not because Qin Hao was overly kindhearted. He simply knew his own limits. In his view, even if he obtained the Flame Mantra, it would be nearly impossible for him to reach the heights Xiao Yan achieved in the original story.

He had read the original story and was intimately familiar with Xiao Yan's path of growth. Xiao Yan was either devouring Heavenly Flames or on the way to find one.

Having read the original story, he knew very well how dangerous it was to devour a Heavenly Flame. It was no exaggeration to say that devouring Heavenly Flames was like dancing on Death's blade.

Every devouring attempt was a trial of life and death, even with the support of medicinal pills.

Although the former owner had never devoured a Heavenly Flame, he had devoured a beast flame, one from the fifth-tier Magic Beast, the Crimson Flame Tiger King.

Even though Qin Hao had not experienced it personally, through the memories he had merged with, he could still imagine the horrifying agony the former owner had endured while devouring that beast flame.

Devouring even a beast flame had been so difficult, let alone a Heavenly Flame that was even more powerful.

Qin Hao truly did not envy Xiao Yan's opportunities in the slightest.

It was no exaggeration to say that even if the Flame Mantra were placed before him, and even if the Heavenly Flames and everything required to devour them were fully prepared, he might not have the courage to try.

In the original story, Xiao Yan had narrowly escaped death several times while devouring Heavenly Flames.

One had to know that Xiao Yan was the fated protagonist of this world, yet even he had suffered so much. How could anyone else fare better?

Qin Hao suspected that if someone else cultivated the Flame Mantra, it would be a near-certain death sentence, perhaps even death without any chance of survival.

Even if he was a transmigrator who had run into "Great Fortune," he would not arrogantly believe that he could surpass Xiao Yan in this regard or endure the terrifying pain of having his body tempered by Heavenly Flames.

"Is there really no other way... Hm? No, wait! Maybe I can do this!"
