After being reborn for sixty years, Lu Chuan thought he was destined never to cultivate immortality in this lifetime. But then, at the age of sixty, the System appeared. Before he could cultivate immortality, fate came knocking.
His old friend's bodyguard agency had been passed down to his granddaughter, but a bully had tricked her into buying insurance and was demanding compensation. Unable to pay, she would have to sell both the agency and herself. To repay the kindness that had once saved his life, Lu Chuan stepped in, redeemed the agency for fifty taels, and took on three hundred thousand taels of bad debt.
"Grandpa, this is my Zhou family's ancestral Sky Profound Art. Please accept it."
It wasn't a cultivation technique, but Lu Chuan accepted it anyway. To his surprise, the System activated.
"Sky Profound Art proficiency +1"
"Sky Profound Art proficiency +1"
"..."
Lu Chuan: "? So that's how you use the System?"
"Basic Saber Technique proficiency +1"
"Basic Saber Technique proficiency +1"
"..."
Lu Chuan: "? Sixty years of painstaking saber practice, and I still can't match one day of training?"
"Swallow Skimming Art proficiency +1"
"Swallow Skimming Art proficiency +1"
"..."
The bandits of Blackwind Stronghold: "How can an old man have such quick footwork? Why can't we catch him?"
"Lesser Heavenly Origin Art proficiency +1"
"Lesser Heavenly Origin Art proficiency +1"
"..."
The mastermind: "Spiritual energy has run dry, and it has yet to recover. There is no cultivation method left in this world. How did you break through the ranks and reach Foundation Establishment? So be it. Since that's the case, you must be this world's chosen one. Take this fated treasure."
The mastermind took his own life.
Looking at his Foundation Establishment cultivation, Lu Chuan froze. How had he actually started cultivating immortality, just like that?
Only when the sky screen opened did Lu Chuan realize that this world was but a drop in the ocean.
