Chapter 1 - We\'re friends, right?
Tai Xuan Sect.
Looking at the surroundings that were both unfamiliar and familiar, Meng Changqing finally confirmed one thing: he had crossed over.
He had arrived in a fantasy world that only existed in novels from his previous life.
Here, the strongest could soar above the nine heavens, easily pluck stars and chase the moon, and with a lift of their hand, overturn mountains and rivers, even reversing the universe.
It possessed an insanely powerful force.
And now, he was just an outer disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect.
“Things are not bad at the beginning.”
Quickly adapting, a smile appeared on Meng Changqing’s handsome face.
Although his aptitude for cultivation was just average, he was not considered trash.
After two years of joining the sect, he had reached the eighth level of Vein Tempering Realm.
He already met the assessment standards of the sect and wouldn’t be expelled.
Additionally, his family was a medium-sized business, managing various industries and having a solid foundation.
At least in the early stage, he didn’t need to worry too much about cultivation resources.
“But if things continue like this, it seems that reaching the Vein Opening Realm in this lifetime will be the limit.”
The smile slowly disappeared from Meng Changqing’s face.
Having finally come to this world of martial arts prosperity…
If he lived in mediocrity like this, he would truly feel unwilling.
The power that could easily dominate the world with a wave of his hand was truly intoxicating.
Moreover, the recent situation in the world was unstable, with various hidden currents surging.
With only the strength of the Vein Opening Realm, he couldn’t control his own life and death in this dangerous world.
Cultivation required aptitude and comprehension.
And in the early stage, aptitude was the most important.
The better the aptitude, the faster the cultivation progress.
Although his innate talent was not bad, it could only be considered average.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken thirteen years to cultivate to the eighth level of Vein Tempering Realm after starting at the age of five.
Ding!
[The Friend System is binding!]
[Binding successful!]
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his mind.
Meng Changqing was first stunned, then his eyes lit up with excitement!
How could he not know what this was!
This was a must-have for traversers!
The system!
“System, what functions do you have?” Calming down, Meng Changqing quickly asked.
It was well known that the existence of the system was almost equivalent to cheating, representing arbitrariness and unreasonableness!
Countless colleagues rose to prominence in the myriad worlds with its help!
[Reporting to the host, this system is called the Friend System. As long as you add someone as a friend, you can randomly obtain one attribute from the other person.]
[The attributes include aptitude, comprehension, talent, martial skills, etc.]
[There is no restriction on race.]
[In addition, increasing the friend’s favorability towards you can result in you obtaining more attributes and additional rewards!]
[You can also unlock more functions!]
The system said a lot in one breath, and Meng Changqing understood it all.
His eyes suddenly became extremely bright.
Adding friends could obtain attributes from the other party?
This was a bit heaven-defying.
If he added those geniuses as friends, wouldn’t he be able to obtain top-notch aptitude?
You should know that he wasn’t lacking in cultivation resources, after all, his family was a business family.
The only limitation to his cultivation was his aptitude!
If there was a top-notch aptitude, then he truly had a chance to step onto the peak of martial arts!
For a moment, Meng Changqing felt that the long-closed door of martial arts seemed to be slowly opening to him.
Behind the door was a brilliant and boundless world!
“Wait!” Returning to his senses, Meng Changqing asked, “System, are there any standards for adding friends?
“Do they need to be sincere?
“Or is it enough to just say it verbally?”
If it was the former, it would be a bit difficult.
After all, in this world, people’s hearts were unpredictable. It would take a lot of time, energy, and even money to truly become friends with them!
It might take several years to truly add one friend successfully.
[Verbal acknowledgment is enough.]
The system’s answer made Meng Changqing breathe a sigh of relief.
That’s simpler.
[Please add friends as soon as possible, Host.]
The system reminded.
Meng Changqing raised his eyebrows.
He wanted to, indeed.
But according to the system’s function, he couldn’t just add friends casually.
Not to mention geniuses, at least they had to be stronger than him in terms of aptitude or other aspects.
And such people weren’t easy to find among the outer disciples.
“Junior Brother Meng!” suddenly, a hearty voice sounded.
Meng Changqing turned around.
There was a burly man standing in front of him, who looked middle-aged but was actually still quite young, reportedly only twenty-one years old.
“Senior Brother Xia.” Meng Changqing nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on his face.
This person’s name was Xia Han.
He was considered one of the strong figures among the outer disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect.
He specialized in body refining techniques.
Originally from a family of merchants, although he wasn’t good at cultivation, he was quite good in terms of character and interpersonal skills.
He liked to make friends.
Perhaps this was also the reason why he activated the Friend System.
“Thanks to Junior Brother Meng for giving me that bottle of Blood Qi Pill last time. Otherwise, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to step into the fourth level of the ‘Bronze Armor Art’ until now!”
Xia Han said excitedly.
At the same time, he raised his right arm.
With the surging of blood and energy, his skin became as if cast in bronze, emanating an invincible aura!
“‘Bronze Armor Art’?” Meng Changqing’s eyes lit up slightly.
This was one of the top body refining techniques among the outer disciples.
A human-grade high-level skill.
It was divided into five levels.
When cultivated to perfection, it was said to be like a pure bronze person, impervious to swords and spears. Even martial artists two small realms higher than oneself might not be able to break through its defense!
However, in order to cultivate this technique, one needed aptitude, great perseverance, and a lot of resources.
So not everyone could cultivate it successfully.
Xia Han didn’t have much background.
Before joining the sect, he was just a wandering cultivator.
“Congratulations, Senior Brother Xia, for advancing to the fourth level of the ‘Bronze Armor Art.’ You are not far from perfection.”
“It’s not that easy. I’m very satisfied if I can reach the fourth level.” Xia Han shook his head.
Ding!
[The Eye of Investigation has been activated, you can view relevant information about the other party!]
Suddenly, the system’s voice sounded again.
Meng Changqing was taken aback.
There’s this function too?
“Activate!”
Meng Changqing didn’t hesitate at all, silently reciting in his mind.
Buzz~
Several lines of text appeared next to Xia Han.
Basic Information:
【Name: Xia Han】
【Race: Human】
【Cultivation: Ninth Level of Vein Tempering Realm】
Attribute Information:
【Root Bone: Fourth Grade】
【Comprehension: Ordinary】
【Martial Arts: “Shattered Stone Fist” (Introductory), “Bronze Armor Art” (Fourth Level)】
【Talent: None】
【Bloodline: None】
【…】
“Fourth-grade root bone.”
Meng Changqing’s eyes lit up.
Root bones were divided into six grades.
The higher the quality, the faster the cultivation progress, and he was at the fifth grade.
I didn’t expect Xia Han’s root bone to be fourth grade.
Isn’t he the perfect candidate to add as a friend?
Although he’s only one grade higher than himself, that’s still significant!
He’s not lacking in early-stage cultivation resources, so if his root bone could be improved, his cultivation speed will be greatly increased!
He will soon be able to cultivate to the peak of the Vein Tempering Realm, then step into the Vein Opening Realm and enter the Inner Sect!
“Senior Brother Xia, we are friends, right?”
Suppressing his excitement, Meng Changqing took a deep breath and said slowly.
“Of course,” Xia Han was puzzled as to why Meng Changqing asked this, but he immediately nodded, “Of course we are friends!”
Ding!
[The friend request has been accepted!]
