Steady Critical Hits: From Low Martial Arts to the End of the Apocalypse

Lin Mo transmigrates to the Qingyun Continent, where he becomes an unremarkable collateral-clan disciple at the third level of Body Tempering.

He assumes this is an ordinary low-martial world and plans to develop steadily with his newly bound [Ten-Thousandfold Critical Reward System]. Focus on cultivation once, and trigger a twentyfold critical reward. Meditate with a tranquil mind, and trigger a ten-thousandfold return. Stay hidden until he is invincible, then emerge. The plan is perfect.

Until one day, he "accidentally" cleaves a mountain a hundred li away with a single sword strike, and blood-red writing appears in the sky:

[Endgame Countdown: 897 years, 114 days, 07 hours]

[Erosion Level: Beginner]

[World Barrier Integrity: 71.3%]

Lin Mo looks at the [Hundred-Thousandfold Critical Reward] that has just triggered on his System panel, then at the cracked wooden sword in his hand, and falls into deep thought.

"So... this isn't a low-martial world. It's a world with an apocalypse countdown?"

"Then this critical reward System of mine..."

[Ding! Endgame erosion detected. System deep functions unlocked: Apocalypse Response Module]

[Available to unlock: Endgame Resistance Cultivation (critical rewards doubled), Eroder Weakness Analysis (requires a ten-thousandfold critical reward), World Barrier Repair Technique (requires a millionfold critical reward to comprehend)]

Lin Mo falls silent.

Then he quietly wipes clean the broken wooden sword he was about to throw away, returns to his courtyard, and continues practicing the most basic thrust.

Once, twice, three times...

[Ding! You practiced the basic sword thrust and triggered a three-hundredfold critical reward. Skill comprehended: Piercing the Endgame, Prototype]

Steady, he has to stay steady.
