[No holding back] [Pure satisfaction] [Subverting expectations] [Comedic System story] [Foodie]
Others cultivate immortality with spiritual roots, cultivation techniques, and piles of spirit stones.
Lu Shi cultivates immortality with a good set of teeth.
Reincarnated as a servant with five spiritual roots at the very bottom of Ten Thousand Swords Mountain, he binds himself to a god-tier System.
The System gives him three starting attribute points and advises him to put them into spiritual power and constitution.
Instead, he dumps all three into Charm, a drab-looking stat labeled "Useless for cultivation."
[Ding! Hidden quest completed: Put all starting points into Charm.]
[God-tier talent triggered: All Weapons Pay Homage.]
Then all the magical weapons in the sect go crazy.
The senior disciple's treasured flying sword, which he had nurtured for three years until it developed a sword spirit, suddenly turns around in front of everyone. It swerves past all the heads in the crowd, wraps its tassel around Lu Shi's wrist, and rubs against him again and again, refusing to leave.
[Ding! Bond with the treasured flying sword "Cold Spring": +50. Status: Love at first sight.]
The senior disciple's face turns black as the bottom of a pot.
Lu Shi looks innocent. "I didn't do anything, believe me?"
The System tells him to refine the flying sword and nurture it for three days.
He opens his mouth and bites into it. Crunch.
[You're supposed to refine it, not eat it! Host, what is wrong with you?]
"Believe you? I'm eating it."
[Ding! Quest completed (unconventionally). Evaluation: Absurd.]
[God-tier talent unlocked: Everything Is Edible.]
Spirit stones, pill residue, magical weapons, treasures: he can eat anything infused with spiritual energy, and whatever he eats gives him its benefits.
The System offers him three choices. He ignores the proper quests and picks only the options marked "useless," "extremely difficult," and "not recommended," earning a pile of worthless mortal martial arts techniques nobody wants.
Others ride swords on the wind and send their treasures soaring through the sky.
He chases magical treasures across the mountains, drooling:
"Don't run! Let me take one bite, just one!"
