A Lowly Gang Grunt from the Start, Turning Every Strongman into a Stepping Stone

The dynasty is nearing its end, and he begins as cannon fodder.

With a System at his disposal, Si Xuan turns cause and effect on its head. Starting as a lowly pawn in a gang, he uses countless powerful fighters as stepping stones on his way to the pinnacle of martial arts.

“Gang traitor, cold-hearted and ruthless. Kill him to gain three years of cultivation.”

“Demonic cultivator, with all four apertures open. Kill him to gain eight years of cultivation.”

“Qi-tempering powerhouse, whose every gesture can shake heaven and earth. Kill him to gain a hundred years of cultivation.”

…

“You keep asking me what martial arts are, what it means to be invincible.”

Si Xuan strides forward, tall and broad-shouldered.

An immense, unfathomable aura bursts forth like a raging tide, forcing everyone around him to stagger backward.

“True skill is honed over time!”

Boom!

He clenches his fist and throws a punch at the heavens.

Countless ripples spread through the void. The violent tremors split the surrounding space with crack after crack.

A gap is punched open in the sky. Roiling waves of energy spiral upward, only to be crushed back down by the endless turbulence of the void.

Si Xuan’s voice echoes between heaven and earth.

“This punch carries a million years of cultivation. Can you withstand it?”
