Dark night, gloomy skies.

Above the pitch-black firmament, patches of floating clouds slowly swept past the hook-like crescent moon.

Tong City.

Heavenly Origin Martial Arts Hall.

"Huh?"

Lu Yun only felt a splitting headache, with not a shred of strength left in his entire body.

"Brother Yun, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

He subconsciously raised his head to look.

He saw a red-robed girl with picturesque eyebrows, long hair hanging over her shoulders, and a slender, graceful figure.

At this moment.

She was staring at him with a look of anxiety.

Who is she?

What is this place?

Didn't I just get sent flying by that Mercedes-Benz driving straight toward me?

Looking at the completely unfamiliar room.

Lu Yun's eyes were laced with a few threads of bloodshot red, his complexion growing increasingly pale.

Just as his mind was a mess of porridge, completely unable to puzzle it out.

Suddenly.

Countless chaotic memory fragments, like a tidal wave, surged into his mind in an instant.

So that's how it is!

I never expected...

That I really transmigrated!

Not long ago.

He was originally just an ordinary college student on Earth.

Yet...

A sudden car accident.

Let him end up transmigrated here by a stroke of mischance.

And.

He was reborn in the body of a youth with the same name and surname.

Since heaven has given me a chance at a new lease on life, I must cherish it well!

Lu Yun made a resolute determination in his heart.

According to the memories after their fusion.

The world he currently found himself in...

Was called Sky Net Star.

This was a world of the Spirit Revival Era and a great martial dao epoch.

Judging from the current situation.

Although he was not lightly injured, it was not as if there was no possibility of a comeback.

My current identity is the only son of Lu Xingwen, master of the Heavenly Origin Martial Arts Hall, and this girl before my eyes is named Chu Lingxue, who grew up with me since childhood.

Her father, Chu Hongxin, is not only the lord of this city, but also a super powerhouse of the late Primordial Astral Realm.

Lu Yun's thoughts surged.

With the strength of his father Lu Xingwen.

He would definitely not let his only son become a useless cripple just like that.

The most important thing was...

Chu Hongxin was absolutely impossible to stand by with folded arms.

First, he was the fellow apprentice brother of Lu Yun's father.

Second, Lu Yun suffering heavy injuries this time was actually mainly due to being implicated by Chu Lingxue.

Half a year ago...

Chu Lingxue invited Lu Yun to go sightseeing at the City God Temple.

Unexpectedly.

They ended up running into an assassin midway.

Although both of them had personal guards accompanying them, that assassin's martial arts were simply too high.

Based on Lu Yun's judgment at the time.

The opponent's cultivation realm was not even lower than his father's, and definitely reached the Xiantian Realm.

This was rather terrifying.

One had to know.

Ever since the advent of the Spirit Revival Era.

The Martial Dao Alliance, the highest organization of Sky Net Star, had once conducted several years of research.

Through collecting hundreds of thousands of samples.

They divided martial arts realms from low to high into Body Tempering, Postnatal, Xiantian, and Primordial Astral.

Above the Primordial Astral were the Divine Aperture Realm, Sea-Opening Realm, Star-Gathering Realm...

Each major realm could be specifically divided into five stages: early, middle, late, peak, and perfection.

Lu Yun's father, Lu Xingwen, as the master of the Heavenly Origin Martial Arts Hall, possessed strength belonging to the level of the Innate Realm Peak.

And while those few guards at the time were all Postnatal Realm experts.

Pity.

Meeting an assassin whose realm was higher by an entire major realm, they had no power to parry whatsoever.

Soon...

They were all knocked down to the ground.

That day.

The assassin's target was obviously on Chu Lingxue.

At the critical juncture.

As his ferocious fist wind was about to touch Chu Lingxue's delicate body.

It was Lu Yun who exhausted all his strength...

Using the family's unique peerless skill Transplanting Flowers and Grafting Trees.

To instantly swap the positions of Chu Lingxue and himself.

Because of this.

His dantian and Qi sea suffered a devastating blow.

Fortunately, Chu Hongxin arrived very quickly after receiving the news.

That assassin saw that the situation was not looking good.

With a single strike missing its mark.

Fled the scene swiftly.

The two of them managed to preserve their lives with good fortune.

However.

Because the assassin's fist wind was too fierce and domineering, it directly destroyed Lu Yun's dantian and Qi sea.

Causing him to lose his cultivation entirely.

Until now.

His body was still unable to gather any spiritual Qi.

After the incident.

Although Lu Xingwen and Chu Hongxin racked their brains and tried hard to find a method to repair the dantian and Qi sea.

Yet.

Because the injuries Lu Yun suffered at the time were simply too severe.

It was fundamentally impossible to heal.

When Lu Yun figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

He couldn't help feeling somewhat emotional.

In this world where martial arts were supreme and the weak were prey to the strong.

Having one's dantian destroyed...

Meant being unable to cultivate.

Even though he had his father and the vice city lord propping him up.

Ultimately, these were merely external forces after all.

When all was said and done.

Only true personal strength.

Can provide the capital needed to survive in this cruel world.

"Wuwu... It's all my fault!"

"If I hadn't asked you to go to the City God Temple that day, none of this would have happened."

"You were already at the Consummation of the Body Tempering Realm, and about to advance to the Postnatal Realm."

"And as a result..."

Seeing that Lu Yun had woken up, yet his eyes appeared quite dull.

Chu Lingxue felt a deep sense of self-blame once again.

She believed that Lu Yun had suffered too great a blow after losing his cultivation.

Her autumn-water-like beautiful eyes.

Gradually misted over with a layer of water vapor.

Crystal-clear teardrops tumbled down.

She knew very well.

Before he was injured.

Lu Yun was a martial arts genius of some renown in Tong City.

Not yet sixteen years of age.

He had already become an expert at the Consummation of the Body Tempering Realm.

If not for this accident.

He was almost certain to advance to the Postnatal Realm.

His future was promising.

Yet now...

Thinking of this.

Chu Lingxue felt even more distressed inside.

"Silly girl! Stop crying."

Looking at the tear-stained girl.

Lu Yun, having integrated the memories of this lifetime, instantly felt a trace of pity welling up in his heart.

He extended a slender, clean fingertip and gently touched Chu Lingxue's forehead.

Only then did Chu Lingxue snap out of it.

She hurriedly wiped her still-misted eyes.

She vaguely felt that Lu Yun seemed somewhat different from before, but in her flustered state, she could not put her finger on any reason.

She only felt.

The person before her had fingertips carrying a trace of warmth.

That low, mellow voice wound into her ear canal like a kitten's paw lightly scratching.

It was simply enough to...

Make her heartbeat skip half a beat.

"Then... get some rest first, I'm heading back."

"I'll come see you another day."

Having said all this.

Chu Lingxue's pretty face was already flushed red.

She took a step with her slender jade feet and panicked as she turned to leave.

Within the small chamber.

Only wisps of orchid-and-musk-like faint fragrance remained.

As for Lu Yun...

He blankly watched her departing graceful figure.

After a long while.

Only then did he finally turn around and let out a long sigh:

"Getting injured for this kind-hearted girl is not a bad deal after all."

"However..."

"Having time-traveled for so long, why hasn't the golden finger arrived yet?"

As a seasoned fantasy fan from Blue Star.

How could Lu Yun not know the standard equipment of a time-traveler?!

Just as he felt somewhat irritated in his heart...

Within his mind.

A sound resembling an electronic machine suddenly echoed.

[Ding!]
