Martial Arts: Starting With Immortal Cultivation, the Female Warriors Are All Broken
Chapter 1 - Eighteen Years

Chapter 1 Eighteen Years

Beili, Snow Moon City.

Outside the city gate of Snow Moon City stood a young man in white robes.

The young man had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, a face as flawless as jade, and eyes as bright as the stars.

“It’s been more than a month, and I’ve finally arrived at Snow Moon City…”

Looking at the towering city walls before him, Jiang Che felt a bit sentimental.

He was originally a university student from Blue Star, who inexplicably transmigrated to this world after helping an elderly woman cross the street. While he was still an infant, he was adopted by Daoist Qinglong.

At first, Jiang Che thought he had merely traveled to an ordinary ancient dynasty. It wasn’t until he started learning martial arts from Daoist Qinglong at the age of six that he realized he had entered a world of martial arts.

Daoist Qinglong was an old friend of Huang Shang, the national master of the Song Dynasty. Due to their long-standing friendship, Daoist Qinglong obtained the Nine Yin Manual, Huang Shang’s life’s work, from him.

Jiang Che, having a natural Dao body, had all his meridians unblocked from birth, meaning there were no bottlenecks in his cultivation.

When Daoist Qinglong passed away when Jiang Che was ten, he mourned for him for three years before beginning his travels around the world.

With the Nine Yin Manual and his innate Dao body, Jiang Che gained quite a reputation within the Song Dynasty’s borders over the years.

His cultivation advanced swiftly, reaching the fifth level of Grandmaster!

To be at the fifth level of Grandmaster at eighteen years old was already considered a remarkable talent!

In this world, cultivation levels were roughly divided into: Soul Realm, Innate Realm, Master Realm, Grandmaster Realm, Heavenly Realm, Heavenly Immortal Realm, and so on. Each realm had nine levels.

On the entire Jiuzhou Continent, there were probably very few strong individuals at the Tian Ren Da Changsheng level.

Since Heavenly realm experts rarely appeared, with the Nine Yin Manual in hand, Jiang Che could establish himself in an invincible position.

In Beili, his level should correspond to the early stage of Great Freedom hereafter referred to as Grandmaster.

It was also due to these five years of travel that Jiang Che finally realized the true nature of the world he had come to.

The Jiuzhou Continent was vast beyond measure, with rivers stretching for countless miles.

Many nations were spread across the continent, constantly vying for dominance.

There were large countries like Qin, Song, Han, Sui, Ming, Beili, Liyang, and smaller nations like Tibet, Dali, and Japan.

There were also numerous martial arts factions, including Snow Moon City, Wushuang City, Peach Blossom Palace, the Beggar Sect, Dark River, and the Hundred Intelligence Hall.

A month ago, while Jiang Che was traveling through Ming, he suddenly awakened his system.

The system was called the Sign-In System, and it would only activate once he reached Snow Moon City in Beili.

Thus, Jiang Che spent over a month, traveling thousands of miles to reach Snow Moon City, killing several horses along the way.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his wandering thoughts, Jiang Che entered Snow Moon City.

Now that he had arrived, he wasn’t in a rush to activate the system.

“I wonder what time period this is. Has the story started yet…”

After replaceing an inn by the roadside, Jiang Che sat by the window and gave a few silver coins to the waiter to bring some good wine and food. He then began to mumble to himself.

Although he had never watched Youth Songs of Chu* before transmigrating, Jiang Che was a huge fan of online novels in his previous life. With Li Hanyi having replaced Huang Rong in the hearts of many transmigrators, Jiang Che had naturally heard of her.

[Referring to a Chinese novel]

If I can’t win over Li Hanyi, how can I even call himself a transmigrator?

Besides, it’s human nature to admire beauty. Now that I have awakened his system and become the true child of destiny, I no longer need to spend his days in arduous cultivation like before. How can I not experience the beauties of the Jiuzhou?

What’s youth without indulging in romance?

…

“Sir, your food is here. Please enjoy…”

The waiter quickly brought the wine and dishes. Jiang Che began to savor the meal slowly.

The food in Snow Moon City was different from that of the Song Dynasty, with a unique flavor.

After eating and drinking his fill, Jiang Che booked a room and then headed to the inn’s second floor.

After bathing and changing clothes, Jiang Che began communicating with the system in his mind.

“System?”

“I’m here, Host.”

A cold, emotionless prompt sounded in Jiang Che’s mind.

“Tell me what you do.”

“Understood, Host.”

“This system is called the Sign-In System and has two panels: Sign-In and Tasks.”

“The host can sign in every day to receive random rewards. At the end of each month, a special sign-in gift pack will be awarded.”

“The system will also issue random tasks and sign-in tasks. Completing tasks will grant rewards.”

“What happens if I fail a task?” Jiang Che asked curiously.

He remembered reading novels where some ridiculous systems forced the host to complete all kinds of tasks.

“There will be no penalties. Tasks have no time limit. If the host fails to complete a task, the system will simply stop refreshing new tasks.”

After hearing this, Jiang Che finally felt at ease. He then asked with anticipation, “Is there a newbie gift pack?”

“Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving one Newbie Gift Pack. Would you like to open it?”

“Yes!”

“Ding, opening Newbie Gift Pack…”
