Tianyuan Continent, Eastern Territory, Great Qian Dynasty.

“Hiss—”

Ye Chentian drew in a sharp breath, feeling as if his head had been stung by ten thousand hornets at once, the pain so intense that stars danced before his eyes.

“Where is this place?”

He struggled to sit up, only to discover that his entire body was weak and limp.

In the next moment, a torrent of memories surged violently into his mind!

Ye Chentian, a wage slave from Blue Star, died suddenly from overwork and transmigrated to the Tianyuan Continent, becoming a wandering cultivator with the same name, possessing only first-level Qi Refining cultivation.

No money, no cultivation, no background—a typical man with nothing, even more pitiful than his previous life!

“Damn it! I can’t believe I transmigrated just to become a beast of burden again!” Ye Chentian cursed under his breath. Just as he was about to rail against his wretched fate, a cold mechanical voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

Ding! Detected host soul fusion complete, Myriad Realms Sect System binding in progress... 10%... 50%... 100%! Binding successful!

“S-System?!”

Ye Chentian’s pupils contracted sharply and he abruptly sprang to his feet, almost doing a somersault right then and there!

“No way! The legendary system is real?! The golden finger every transmigrator gets is finally mine?!”

His heart pounded wildly, adrenaline surged, and the misery of moments before was instantly swept away by a surge of hope.

This system is dedicated to assisting the host in creating the number one sect in all realms. Core mechanism: Recruiting disciples makes you stronger!

Disciples’ talents are divided into seven grades: Mortal, Spiritual, Profound, King, Emperor, Imperial, and Saint. The higher the grade, the greater the host’s rewards!

Additional benefit: Gifts given to disciples can trigger a tenfold to hundredfold return! The higher the item grade, the more terrifying the return!

Detected that host is a novice, issuing a starter pack. Would you like to open it?

“Open it! Hurry up and open it!” Ye Chentian shouted impatiently, his eyes almost glowing green with greed.

Ding! Starter pack opened successfully. Congratulations, host receives—a Level 0 sect!

As the words fell, the air before him rippled, and a dim light condensed into—a dilapidated wooden hut, barely standing.

On the door, three characters were carved, now weathered and barely legible, but with effort, one could make out “Xuantian Sect.”

Cobwebs hung thickly from the corners, several holes marred the walls, and a gust of wind sent the whole structure creaking, as if it might collapse at any moment.

Ye Chentian’s mouth twitched as he stared at this so-called “sect,” shabbier even than the basement apartment he’d rented in his previous life, his mood crumbling.

“This is supposed to be a sect? You call this a sect?” He jabbed a finger at the rickety hut, so angry he wanted to curse the heavens. “System, are you sure you’re not some knockoff?”

Ding! Xuantian Sect has been officially established!

Detected host’s compatibility with sect, cultivation has been raised to the Immortal Emperor realm!

!!!

Ye Chentian felt a vast, starry power explode from his dantian, surging through his meridians to every corner of his body. The feeble Qi Refining energy was instantly obliterated, replaced by a terrifying aura that seemed to command the very laws of heaven and earth.

A mere flick of his finger made the air tremble. He looked down at his palm, where a faint purple-gold radiance swirled.

This was the “Essence of Ten Thousand Daos,” unique to the Immortal Emperor realm.

He took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy within ten miles rushed into his body like a tidal wave. The spiritual power in his meridians was as thick as a solidified river of stars, and with every breath, the tides of heaven and earth’s energy moved in rhythm with him.

“So this is... the Immortal Emperor realm?” Ye Chentian murmured. He raised his hand and grasped at a boulder in the distance.

Crack!

A massive rock, several yards wide, silently shattered into powder, which swirled into a vortex of energy in his palm.

The sensation of commanding all things with a mere gesture was indescribably exhilarating!

His earlier dissatisfaction was long gone, replaced by visions of a boundless future: “With the power of an Immortal Emperor, how could I not build the number one sect in all realms?”

The most urgent task: recruit disciples!

Ding! Novice quest issued: Recruit your first disciple!

Quest rewards: sect hall, Ten Thousand Arts Pavilion, a Grade One spiritual vein, and 100,000 lower-grade spirit stones.

A Profound-grade talent cultivator has been detected within one kilometer of the sect, location marked. Host, please proceed to recruit.

“Profound-grade talent?” Ye Chentian’s spirits lifted. His Immortal Emperor divine sense spread out in an instant, locking clearly onto a figure in the mountain valley.

“Heaven is truly helping me!”

His figure flickered, and he shot off toward the marked location like a stream of light.

...

At the foot of Xuantian Sect, in a rugged, rock-strewn valley—

“Pfft—”

Xiao Yi spat a mouthful of blood, staining his already tattered clothes crimson. Slumped against a withered tree, his eyes were dazed, his breath faint.

Behind him, a middle-aged man in black robes approached at a leisurely pace, a cruel smile on his lips.

This was Chen Huai of the Blood Demon Sect, a first-level Foundation Establishment cultivator, trailed by more than a dozen fierce-looking underlings in the Qi Refining stage.

“You little bastard, hand over your storage pouch and I might let you die quickly,” Chen Huai licked his lips, greed gleaming in his eyes.

“If not, I have plenty of ways to make you beg for death without being able to die!”

Xiao Yi clenched his teeth, a hint of defiance flashing in his eyes. “Never! Even if I, Xiao Yi, die, I won’t let scum like you have your way!”

He was only at the third level of Qi Refining. Facing a Foundation Establishment cultivator and a dozen Qi Refining thugs, he stood no chance, but his pride would not let him submit.

Who would have thought that his training journey would lead him into a den of bandits—he feared he would not escape death today.

“Fine, since you refuse a toast, you’ll have to drink the penalty!” Chen Huai’s expression darkened. “Cripple him!”

Several Blood Demon Sect disciples advanced, grinning wickedly, long knives flashing coldly.

At that critical moment—

“Oh? It’s lively here.”

A calm voice sounded, imbued with an inexplicable force that froze everyone in their tracks.

All eyes turned to see a young man approaching at a measured pace—Ye Chentian.

He wore plain, well-worn linen clothing, utterly unremarkable in appearance.

Yet his steps were unhurried, his gaze indifferent, as if he regarded the Blood Demon Sect mob as nothing at all.

Chen Huai frowned; he couldn’t see through this youth’s cultivation and a trace of caution crept into his heart. “Who are you? This is Blood Demon Sect business. I advise you not to meddle!”

Ye Chentian ignored him, walking straight to Xiao Yi and looking down at him, his voice calm but carrying an undeniable authority.

“What’s your name?”

Xiao Yi was stunned. He could sense that this youth, though seemingly ordinary, exuded an unfathomable aura. With great effort, he replied, “Junior Xiao Yi greets Senior.”

“Xiao Yi.” Ye Chentian nodded.

“I am Ye Chentian, Sect Master of Xuantian Sect. Now, I wish to accept you as a disciple. Will you join my sect?”

Xiao Yi was dumbfounded.

Accept me as a disciple?

Who is this person? Why would he suddenly want to take me in?

Chen Huai and his men were equally stunned by this sudden turn of events.

This kid is on the verge of death, and someone wants to take him as a disciple? Who’s this lunatic?
