Old Li from the Qi Gong Association came and went in a flash, like a gust of wind sweeping through Lin Yuan's rental apartment, leaving behind the smell of instant noodles and a mess everywhere. Where was the promised ethereal demeanor? He felt more like a thug collecting protection money. Lin Yuan curled his lip, thinking that these old fossils were indeed hard to deal with, each one acting as if they were something special. It seemed he needed to hurry up and cultivate; otherwise, if someone stronger came next time, his frail body wouldn't be able to withstand it. At that point, forget about live streaming his cultivation; he might not even be able to get takeout!
Lin Yuan turned off the live stream and rubbed his forehead, which felt a bit numb from the electric shock Old Li had given him before leaving, claiming it was to perk him up. Perk him up? He felt like he was about to be grilled like squid!
He quickly finished the remaining instant noodles, wiped his mouth, and sat cross-legged on the floor to begin his cultivation. The apartment was small, making it a bit cramped for practicing; it felt like doing yoga inside a snail shell. But Lin Yuan couldn't afford to think too much about that. After all, his life was at stake! With limited cultivation resources and such poor conditions, why did this path of cultivation feel harder than going to the West for scriptures?
He recalled the Martial Arts Competition three years ago, a contest that had left him humiliated. His opponent had deceitfully drugged him, causing him to perform poorly and ultimately lose not just the match but also his dream. Back then, he was known as the "Jade-faced Little Flying Dragon," with countless fans cheering for him! And now? "Takeout Little Dragon" was more like it!
"Damn it! I was once the most promising contender for the championship! Just because of those bastards, I've fallen to delivering takeout!" Lin Yuan gritted his teeth in frustration. How could anyone understand this disparity? He, Lin Yuan, a prodigy with extraordinary talent, should have been a leader in the cultivation world. Now he could only huddle in this shabby apartment, eating instant noodles and bragging online!
This sense of injustice ignited a fierce determination within him. He took a deep breath, mobilized the Lingqi within him, and began his cultivation. The Ancient Martial Arts Manuscript he had bought from a mysterious old man with half a month's salary was in his hands; he wasn't sure if it was real or fake. If it turned out to be fake, he would drag that old man out and let him experience what "Modern Cultivator's Anger" truly meant!
Fortunately, Zhou Haoran had been generous enough to set him up with a High-Tech Cultivation Assistance Device. It looked like a gaming console; once he donned the helmet, it simulated various Cultivation Arena scenarios and monitored his physical data—an essential gadget for home use or even for illicit activities. With this device, his cultivation efficiency skyrocketed!
Lin Yuan put on the helmet and suddenly found himself in a Cloud-Shrouded Valley. The scenery was far more upscale than the small park downstairs where only aunties danced. Here, cranes flew gracefully while spiritual springs bubbled—truly an otherworldly paradise!
Following the instructions in the Ancient Martial Arts Manuscript, he began cultivating. The Lingqi flowed through his body, nourishing his meridians and making him feel utterly relaxed—like soaking in a hot spring!
However, cultivation was not without its challenges. As he delved deeper into his practice, Lin Yuan hit a bottleneck. He felt the Lingqi inside him surging like a wild horse breaking free, causing him immense discomfort. This wasn't relaxing at all; it felt more like being in a Steaming Sauna!
"What’s happening? Am I going to go berserk?" Lin Yuan's heart raced as he quickly stopped cultivating. He took off the helmet and was drenched in sweat, feeling as though he'd just been pulled from water.
He pulled out his phone and called Zhou Haoran for a video chat.
"Hao Ran! Help! I think I'm about to go berserk!" Lin Yuan exclaimed dramatically.
On the other end of the video call, Zhou Haoran was munching on chicken legs when he heard Lin Yuan's words and nearly choked. "Brother Yuan! What’s wrong now? Don’t scare me like that! I almost offered my chicken leg to the screen!" Zhou Haoran complained.
Lin Yuan recounted what had just happened to Zhou Haoran in vivid detail.
After listening, Zhou Haoran burst into laughter: "Brother Yuan! You’re about to break through! Congratulations! Looks like my device really works well! Make sure to add an extra chicken leg for me later!"
"Break through? Are you serious?" Lin Yuan was taken aback. He thought he was on the verge of disaster but instead found out he might be on the brink of a breakthrough! This surprise came so suddenly that he hardly knew how to react!
“Of course it’s true! The Lingqi within you has reached a saturated state. If you push a little harder, you can break through to the Spirit Gathering stage! At that point, you’ll be able to control Lingqi and cast some simple spells!” Zhou Haoran explained, his tone filled with envy.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan instantly perked up. Controlling Lingqi and casting spells? This was the ability he had always dreamed of!
“Alright! I’m going all in!” Lin Yuan put on the helmet again and entered the simulation scene. This time, he no longer felt fear; instead, he faced the challenge head-on. He mobilized all the Lingqi in his body, crashing against the bottleneck within.
With a loud bang, a massive explosion echoed in Lin Yuan's mind. He felt the bottleneck within him shatter, a powerful force surging throughout his body, warm and indescribably pleasant.
He had successfully broken through!
Opening his eyes, excitement sparkled in them. He felt filled with power, as if he could control everything.
He attempted to control the Lingqi around him, and soon saw it gather in his hands, forming a glowing orb crackling with electricity. “This… this is so cool!” Lin Yuan exclaimed.
With a gentle wave, the orb shot out and struck a beer bottle on the wall, which instantly shattered into pieces. “Wow! That power is insane!” Lin Yuan gasped. If that hit someone, it would be disastrous!
He tried again, this time gathering Lingqi in his hand to form a transparent shield. He punched the shield, but it didn’t budge; not even a ripple appeared. “Awesome! This defense is unbeatable!” Lin Yuan shouted excitedly. Now, even if Old Li came back for electric therapy, he wouldn’t be afraid!
He quickly opened the live stream to share his joy with his fans.
“Guys, I’ve broken through! I finally did it!” Lin Yuan said excitedly into the camera. “Thank you all for your support! Without you, I wouldn’t be where I am today!”
The fans in the live stream also became excited, sending gifts and blessings.
“Brother Yuan is amazing! Congratulations on your breakthrough!”
“Brother Yuan is mighty! Who would dare bully you now!”
“Brother Yuan is invincible! The Qi Gong Association doesn’t stand a chance!”
Lin Yuan looked at the screen full of support and felt empowered. He knew this was just the beginning. There was still a long road ahead.
“Guys, there are even greater challenges waiting for us next!” Lin Yuan said to the camera. “Let’s create miracles together!”
He turned off the live stream.
Walking to the window, he gazed out at the night sky, a determined light flickering in his eyes.
He knew that the Qi Gong Association would not let this go easily.
He understood that a greater crisis was approaching.
But he felt no fear.
For he was no longer the despondent delivery man he once was.
Now, he was a Cultivator!
A Cultivator with limitless potential!
At that moment, Lin Yuan's phone rang.
It was Su Jiu'er calling.
"Lin Yuan, I have an important message to tell you..." Su Jiu'er's voice sounded serious.
Lin Yuan's heart tightened, sensing that something bad was about to happen...
