Cultivation World

In a bed, we can see a man in his teenage years waking up and looking confused, memories started emerging from out of nowhere, his name is Li Wei, and he is currently 16 years old and the reason for his confusion is because he apparently has been reincarnated in this fantasy world of 'World of Cultivation'.

He is not a native of this world, he is what people call a transmigrator or a reincarnator based on the novels that he often read.

"This is a ridiculous situation, to think that I would be reincarnated like the protagonist in the novels," Li Wei said in a faint voice and shock is apparent in his tone.

"What's more is that I have been reincarnated in the 'World of Cultivation', that world is just a game. I never expected that I will wake up in this world for it to be my reality" Li Wei said to himself while standing up and observing his surroundings.

He is currently in a room that is pretty clean, and the design of the room is backward that looks more like the design of the houses of ancient China, it is spacious for 1 person to live and based on the memories of his predecessor he is currently hiding in the town called Spirit Grass Town.

"Really, hiding? from the enemy of my family? sounds like a cliché beginning from a cultivation novel." Li Wei muttered while looking above and trying to remember more of his memories

In his first life, his real name is Michael Garcia, his parents give him the name Michael in reference to the archangel of God of Christianity because they want him to be a priest however he disappointed them because he is not really a devout believer at most he can only be called a shallow believer.

He also likes anime, comics, and games for his hobbies to extremes and he really hates school, well every student should at least hate school or studying once, he pretty much is a very definition of an otaku.

However that still doesn't explain his transmigration, the thing that he remembers prior to his transmigration is that he is plugging in a hack that he created into the virtual reality world called 'World of Cultivation'. He is still a student studying programming though and he just knows he has a knack for it.

Even he is surprised that he managed to create a program to hack the game since the game is revolutionary.

The World of Cultivation is a popular virtual reality game with a number of users in billion, the reason for its success is that this game created a new world that is a replica of the real world and it is able to stimulate all the senses of the human body.

That is a unique thing if you compare it to the other virtual reality games that started in the modern era, after all, he lives in a futuristic world if you compare it to the standard of the modern era that is often described in history books.

At that time people thought that the virtual reality game that is akin to the real world is just a fantasy because there is so much scientific research that says that it's impossible however the 'World of Cultivation' takes the whole world by storm because it defies what impossible is. That is also another reason why it is successful.

As for the reason why he is playing the 'World of Cultivation', that is because being good in the game will make you a rich, influential and famous person. After all billions of people play this game so being successful in the game will guarantee your success in reality. If you want riches, ladies, and power then play the World of Cultivation.

He is also a pro player in the game but if you compare him to other pro player then he is only slightly above average.

"Anyways. after I plug in my hack I just suddenly found myself in this body with its memories. Again my surname in this world is Li, Wei is the name that is given to me by my parents of this world that means powerful and extraordinary" Li Wei said to himself.

"That's right from now on I'm Li Wei and you know what, I hate this dangerous world, whose a sane person who would want to live here" Li Wei suddenly said with a resolution with a bit of anger.

Li Wei's father is the patriarch of the Li family however the Li family is now a thing of the past because his background now is an orphan whose family got betrayed by his 'greedy uncle' that resulted in the fall of the Li family and Li Wei escaping.

However the Li family is just a small faction in this cultivation world, there are so many factions in this world. Some will fall and some will rise.

"Pretty cliché background in this cultivation world and I'm sure that if I'm really in this cruel world and not dreaming then everyone in the family would be dead even that 'greedy uncle', after all in this world betrayal is common however if others knew it you would have a hard time finding allies and having allies is important in this world where your enemy would always multiply, however even if you can find one at most you will just be their cannon fodders after all who would want to trust someone who is willing to betray their allies". Li Wei said while adjusting his mindset.

"I also need to be wary of the people I associate from now on," Li Wei said while trying to form a plan on how to approach people. However, before that what he needs to check first is his body.

"Looking at my body I know that my body is pretty average in strength and I haven't even started cultivation. The best time to start cultivation is 16 years old that is based on the experienced and that in the young age what those with the potential to be cultivator needs to do is seek knowledge which is also true however it is an old and inefficient method" Li Wei said.

In this world knowledge is power and Li Wei have so many information because he has been playing this game for a year however that is 10 years in the game time and he knows plenty of way to success.

The first is to join a sect however based on the memories that he have, the sect in this area of the Qing Dynasty will only accept disciples in the next week and he still have seven days before going to the examination.

Money and survival will be the problem, based on his predecessor's memories he only has 90 copper coins and that is only enough for 4 days worth of food if he used it sparingly however that is not good.

"I don't want to waste 7 days of doing nothing if I knew that I can be productive in this dangerous world." Li Wei said while trying to remember what he knew about the Spirit Grass Town.

"Spirit Grass Town is my starting village back then, and I know some things about it. If my memory of the game is right then there is a place that newbies can go into to harvest spirit grass without danger" Li Wei thought after he remembered where that place is.

"Let's see aside from money the only valuable thing I have is my storage ring and sword which is a rank 1 treasure with a good cutting power, it is a pretty standard tool for a cultivator and is also common," Li Wei said while touching the ring in his finger while using his mind and qi to open the contents of the storage ring.

"My ring contains a 5x5 meters of space that is pretty good and will be sufficient for a long time, now the real problem is a map. I need a map of this town and it's surrounding for my plan to work and also the predecessor of this body is really an idiot, to think that he still rent an expensive lodging despite his lack of money" Li Wei said while being disappointed by his predecessor's action and also based on the behavior of the true 'Li Wei', his attitude is that of an arrogant young master, it's no wonder that his family got exterminated.

"In the Spirit Grass Town, it is a town which is known for their spiritual grass that has many common uses in alchemy. If I'm right then I should be in the northern part of the Qing Dynasty in which the topography is full of mountains, cliffs and valleys that are good for the cultivation of spiritual herbs in the wild" Li Wei uttered again

This is also a good place to hide and he is currently in an inn in this town seeking refugee. This town is pretty much a standard starting point in the game and it should be pretty safe, most of the beast here should only be in Qi Gathering and Foundation Realm which is still pretty weak based on Li Wei's standard however they can still bring trouble to normal cultivator on the same level who have low martial arts skills.

"Someone must have brought me to this cultivation world though, ugh a system maybe?" Li Wei said to himself again trying to find his golden finger.

However, in the next moment, he suddenly saw a panel in front of him

[Li Wei]

[Experience: 100/100

[Cultivation: Enough experience points is now gathered and the host is now able to breakthrough? (Will you breakthrough? Yes or No?)]

[Skills: ]

[Items: ]

[Spirit Root:

Gold- Damaged

Wood- Damaged

Fire- Damaged

Water- Damaged

Earth- Damaged]

"This is the system interface of the game, am I still a player? The hack that I created is even working. Even if you already have the experience needed there are still chances that you will fail to breakthrough but with my hack then breaking through will be easy. It will only get important later on where the chances of failing is higher than success in breaking through" Li Wei happily screamed. This is probably the best gift he can have and this will bring him to new heights.
