Everyone Has Cheats, Frustration

Lin Feng took a deep breath to steady himself, a sharp glint in his eyes.

"My strength is barely improving right now, so I might as well break through to a higher realm first!"

"I'll strive to improve my cultivation level as soon as possible so I can enter the Land of Exile sooner, where I can slay ferocious beasts and Devil Beast and earn a good amount of Devil Extermination Points."

Yes, that's it!

Anyway, my combat power has already reached its peak, and it will be difficult for me to advance further on the Combat Power Ranking.

After all, who isn't a cheater these days?

Although I possess two cheat codes: the Fairness System and the Demon-Slaying and Devil-Exterminating System...

There are countless Dao Seed Realm in the Daoist realm, and some exceptionally talented monsters always emerge out of nowhere. Even with my dual systems, I cannot defeat them.

It would be better to face reality early and focus on improving one's cultivation level, instead of fighting tooth and nail on the Dao Seed Realm Combat Power Ranking.

Sigh, everyone has a system, everyone's a cheater, this world is truly terrifying.

The once forgotten geniuses have shone brightly because of the Fairness System, and the competition among those in the same realm is so fierce that it's suffocating, a billion times more terrifying than the involution I experienced in my previous life.

Even with my dual systems, I can't compare to others? It's simply outrageous!

Lin Feng sighed inwardly, glanced around, then leaped away and disappeared into his Portable Daoist Sanctum.

Looking at the cramped space of only 75 cubic meters, he shook his head helplessly.

"I'm so poor, so incredibly poor. I can't even afford a decent Portable Daoist Sanctum."

In my previous life, I was too poor to afford a house; in this life, I'm too poor to expand my Portable Daoist Sanctum. In both lives, I'm destined to be a hardworking laborer, spending my whole life struggling for money.

Even with two major systems at my disposal, I can't escape the Suming of being a wage earner.

He composed himself, suppressing all his frustration, and focused on preparing to break through to a higher realm.

He sat cross-legged on the futon, took several deep breaths to completely calm his mind, and a cold, sharp smile curved his lips:

"I don't believe that you can build a foundation for each realm as solidly as I did by using the system, just through cultivation alone."

Anyone with even the slightest weak foundation will be left behind by me.

The difference in quality is immediately apparent.

Reaching the top of the Combat Power Ranking will be a piece of cake.

As soon as he finished speaking, he shouted, "Today, with my unparalleled talent and boundless wisdom, I will break through to the Dao Image Realm!"

"System, give me some points!"

Lin Feng instantly entered a state of enlightenment, and his aura surged wildly. In just a few breaths, he broke through to the Early Stage of the Dao Image Realm.

His Great Dao Dharma Manifestation was not of the dragon, phoenix, tiger, or leopard type, but rather a humanoid Dharma form exactly like himself, which directly materialized Present Self, its body radiating the brilliant divine light of the Great Dao of Strength.

The next instant, the Great Dao Dharma Manifestation slowly merged into his body and disappeared.

He opened his eyes, feeling the surging, boundless power within him, and a smug smile appeared on his lips.

"Now that I'm at the Early Stage of the Dao Image Realm, it's a good time to go to the Trial Tower, familiarize myself with the new powers, and see if I can directly climb up the Combat Power Ranking!"

He immediately stepped into the Trial Tower and began his challenge.

Half an hour later, he finished his challenge and scanned the Dao Image Realm Combat Power Rankings from beginning to end, but he couldn't find his own name.

"Pah! That's absolutely outrageous!"

Despite the solid foundation I built through the Demon-Slaying and Devil-Exterminating System, I can't even make it onto the Combat Power Ranking.

This Azure Billows Realm is too abnormal, it's utterly insane!

Lin Feng cursed inwardly, feeling utterly frustrated. "It seems that without continuing to improve my cultivation level, there's no hope of making the list. With my current cultivation level of the Early Stage of the Dao Image Realm, I can't even get close to the threshold."

Sigh, I'm probably the worst-off transmigrator ever, especially one with two systems. It's embarrassing to even talk about it.

"We've exhausted our Devil Extermination Points, and our Energy Points are almost gone."

I have to go out Dissemination System to earn Energy Points, and I also have to search for demons and monsters everywhere. I can't have a moment's rest. I'm just born to be busy!

Just as Lin Feng was about to leave his Portable Daoist Sanctum to Dissemination System, he suddenly received Microchat message from his cheap older brother Bai Shuyan:

"Brother Lin, I plan to enter the Land of Exile to cultivate. Would you like to come along?"

The cultivation environment there far surpasses that of the Azure Billows Realm, and the system generates far more Energy Points daily.

Although the Land of Exile is extremely dangerous, as long as you stay within the City of Exile to cultivate and do not venture out rashly, the danger will be greatly reduced.

Lin Feng's eyes suddenly lit up.

He hesitated to enter the Land of Exile for two reasons: firstly, his cultivation was still shallow, and secondly, he did not have enough Energy Points to activate Spatial Teleportation.

Now that Bai Shuyan is going in and is even willing to take him along, how could he miss such a good opportunity?

Although with his current cultivation level, he wouldn't be able to leave the city to kill ferocious beasts and Devil Beast to obtain Devil Extermination Points after entering the Land of Exile,

But there is Innate Spiritual Qi there, and a time flow rate a hundred times faster, making the cultivation environment truly heaven-defying.

Moreover, he wasn't entirely without the opportunity to leave the city.

He would then ask Bai Shuyan, his cheap older brother, to take him out with him, which would ensure his safety and allow him to obtain Devil Extermination Points.

Since it's unlikely we'll find many demons and monsters in the Azure Billows Realm anyway, we might as well head straight to the Land of Exile, this treasure land.

Upon realizing this, he quickly replied, "Thank you Brother Bai. I will go with you to the Land of Exile."

"Okay, Brother Lin, send me your location coordinates, I'll be right there," Bai Shuyan replied.

Lin Feng immediately sent over the location coordinates and then stepped out of his Portable Daoist Sanctum.

The void before him rippled, and a spatial portal appeared. Bai Shuyan stepped out.

Bai Shuyan saw that in just a few years, Lin Feng had grown into a handsome young man, and his cultivation had even reached the Early Stage of the Dao Image Realm.

He watched with awe, secretly amazed. This speed of progress far surpassed his own back then.

Moreover, Lin Feng ranked 95th on the Combat Power Ranking when he was in the Dao Seed Realm. He did not blindly improve his realm, but his combat power and realm advanced at the same time.

It's certain that the other party is a true prodigy, far more capable than I was back then.

It seems I was right about this person; he is someone worth befriending wholeheartedly.

His smile was gentle as he reached out and patted Lin Feng's shoulder lightly, "Brother Lin, you've broken through to the Dao Image Realm so quickly; you're much stronger than I was back then."

Looking at Bai Shuyan's friendly expression and kind attitude, Lin Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

This person treated him with genuine sincerity. Without his help, he would never have been able to grow so quickly. He would always remember this kindness.

"Brother Bai, you flatter me. I have only just entered the Dao Image Realm and haven't even made it onto the Combat Power Ranking yet. I am truly ashamed."

Bai Shuyan glanced at Lin Feng helplessly. "Even if you have high talent, it's unlikely that you can make it onto the list right after breaking through to the Early Stage of the Dao Image Realm."

Not many people can do that.

Most of them only made it onto the list after their cultivation level improved. Nowadays, the competition on the Combat Power Ranking is far more intense than before, making it even more difficult to get on the list.

"But don't be discouraged. With your talent and combat strength, it's only a matter of time before you climb onto the Dao Image Realm Combat Power Rankings."

Lin Feng nodded. "I understand. I will work hard. In the future, I will not only be on the list, but I will also win the number one spot on the Combat Power Ranking."

"You have high aspirations, but it's extremely difficult. You'll have to work twice as hard," Bai Shuyan said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I will definitely take the top spot on the Combat Power Ranking and show Brother Bai." Lin Feng solemnly replied.

He possesses two systems, far surpassing the capabilities of a single-system host, giving him a much greater chance of reaching the top.

"Alright, I'll be waiting to see your future achievements."

Bai Shuyan patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go, let's enter the Land of Exile now."

After saying that, he opened the spatial gate between the Azure Billows Realm and the Land of Exile and stepped straight in.

Lin Feng said no more and followed closely behind, stepping into the spatial portal.
