One-click Cultivation System: System Start LitRPG Progression Epic Fantasy - Action Advanture in Other World Book 1

by D cat

  This kind of abnormal cultivation speed was about a thousand times greater than that of ordinary talents!

  Without any external assistance, martial cultivators with ordinary talent would require more than 30 years to fully temper their bodies while the ones with extraordinary talent would only need 10 days to do so.

  Compared to those talents, the one-click cultivation system seemed to break the laws of this world.

  The reason is that martial cultivators would usually spent five or six hours a day to improve their cultivation.

  Even if they worked a little harder, they would only cultivate for around twelve hours every day at most. If they forced themselves to cultivate for any more than that, they would not be able to persist for a long period of time.

  After all, they would still need to create time for practicing their martial arts, gaining combat experience, finishing their daily chores, etc.

  These activities would naturally use up a lot of time and energy.

  With the help of the system, on the other hand, Su Lang could cultivate 24 hours a day while working on something else. One does not even need to calculate to see how efficient this ridiculous method was.

  "In other words, I will be able to fully temper my body in five days at most. This is absurd!"

  Su Lang was absolutely dumbfounded. He knew this one-click cultivation system was a very abnormal existence, but he did not expect its function to essentially be a cheat code of sorts.

  "To think I've only unlocked the first function. I can't wait to unlock its other ones!"

  Su Lang trembled in excitement. He took a deep breath and suppressed his urge to howl with laughter.

  At this moment!

  [Host, the Sea of Cultivation has been fully cultivated. Would you like to break through now?]

  The absurdity of this notification alone shocked him so much that his mouth began frothing in exhilaration.

  CHAPTER 3 - DIDN'T YOU WANT TO KILL ME?

  "I'm able to break through just like that? The rate at which I'm cultivating is absolutely ridiculous!"

  Su Lang burst with extreme eltation as he immediately ordered, "System, break through!"

  In that instant, Su Lang felt a burning sensation surging throughout his entire body — the marrows of his bones sizzled as if it was thrown in a boiling pot.

  "I've finally broken through to the Initial Body Tempering Realm!"

  Rolling off the bed and standing straight up, Su Lang underwent the a feeling similar to the rebirth of one's body as the immense gush of Spiritual Qi flowing throughout his body.

  Before breaking through, Su Lang — from his bleach pale appearance alone — looked like he was on the verge of death as he suffered a severe injury.

  Now that he had fully recovered from his injuries after the breakthrough, on the contrary, his face flushed red with vigor. His eyes seemed to have regained its original spirits.

  In an instant, he had turned from a half-dead sickly man to a handsome young man!

  "Hu! Hu!"

  Su Lang waved his fists several times to get used to his new body. With each swing of his fists, the wind suffering him whistled violently.

  "Although I used various methods to train my body in my previous life, this body has already surpassed everything I managed to achieve in that life. It's absurd to think that I have only broken through to the Body Tempering Realm!"

  There isn't a single word in this world that could describe the feeling of possessing a tremendous amount of strength. But if Su Lang really had to explain it with words, he felt as if he managed to grasp onto his own destiny, seeming to be able to change the miserable fate which befell the original host.

  *Thump! Thump! Thump!*

  "Su Lang, you useless trash! If you don't open the door now, I will kill you when I get inside!"

  The more violent the kicks on the door became, the more wicked and unbearable Chu Gang's curses turned.

  "You want to kill me? Hehehehe!"

  As the dust accumulated around the door exploded forth from the violent attacks, Su Lang stared menacingly at the door with a cold smile.

  While Chu Gang may certainly be intimidating, he was simply an ordinary man who had not even broken through to the Initial Body Tempering Realm.

  Furthermore, Su Lang worked as an assassin in his previous life. And now that he had broken through to the Body Tempering Realm, why would he need to be afraid of an ordinary man?

  *Thump! Thump! Thump!*

  "You damn bastard, why aren't you opening the door?"

  Chu Gang's voice turned even more ferocious. At this point, the door had already been kicked out of shape and seemed to be on the verge of collapse in the next moment.

  "Stop kicking!"

  After making sure that the windows to his house are tightly shut, Su Lang opened the door with a sneer of his face.

  Outside the door stood a skinny, dark-skinned man with a bald head.

  This man was Chu Gang!

  "You son of a b*tch, why did it take so long for you to open the door?"

  Having lost his patience, Chu Gang forced the door open even more and squeezed in through the gap. He questioned with a deep voice, "What were you shouting like a maniac just now?"

  "Ha!"

  Su Lang smiled coldly and threw a vicious slap towards Chu Gang's fierce-looking face.

  *Slap!*

  The loud slap echoed from the room all the way to the stairway outside.

  Taken aback by Su Lang's unexpected action, Chu Gang stumbled backward and supported himself against the wall. The entire right side of his face was completely numb.

  "You... you dare to hit me?!"

  Chu Gang covered the searing part of his face and looked at Su Lang in utter disbelief.

  Since the martial cultivators who had only broken through to the Body Tempering Realm could not release any Spiritual Qi in their attacks yet, Chu Gang thought that Su Lang was still the same trash as before.

  From his perspective, Su Lang must have eaten something wrong and lost his mind entirely.

  Although the slap landed directly on his face, he shrugged it off as him being careless and falling for the ambush.

  "I want you dead!"

  Chu Gang roared furiously as he threw a punch at Su Lang.

  Having charged up 120% of his strength, Chu Gang directed the attack towards Su Lang's temple.

  Any ordinary people who received such an attack would be seriously injured even if they managed to survive.

  *Thud!*

  At that moment, a dull thud sounded from the punch. Su Lang had grabbed onto Chu Gang's fist with ease.

  "How is this possible?!"

  Just as Chu Gang revealed an expression of disbelief, Su Lang — bearing no intentions to let go — bent down and charged up a fierce counter-attack.

  *Kacha!*

  In that instant, Chu Gang's bone suddenly pierced through his flesh, exposing itself in the air.

  "Agh! Agh!"

  With his arm shattered into two pieces, Chu Gang screamed in agony, unable to endure the sharp pain.

  "Didn't you want to kill me?"

  Su Lang flung away Chu Gang's broken arm before slapping him in the face once again.

  *Slap!*

  This time, Su Lang aimed and struck on his left cheek. After collapsing heavily onto the ground, Chu Gang's entire face swelled up into a pig's head.

  "Agh! My arm!"

  Chu Gang's face twisted in torment as he clutched his broken arm and wailed. His arrogance had long since disappeared.

  "I've only broken one of your arms, yet you already can't endure the pain?"

  As the door slowly creaked to a close, Su Lang stared down at Chu Gang with a sinister expression as he said, "How will you be able to endure the pain of your other limbs being broken then?"

  "Su Lang! Stop! Stop at once!"

  Chu Gang fell into panic when he heard that Su Lang was going to break his limbs.

  "You want me to stop? Hehe...!"


  Su Lang's lips waned into an evil crescent as he stomped on Chu Gang's head and stouted, "Why don't you recall the times you bullied me in the past?!"

  "I admit that I was wrong.... Please show mercy and let me go.... I don't want to die yet...."

  Chu Gang shook his head violently before saying, "Let me tell you, I have recently joined the Broken Axe Hunting Group!"

  "Each member of the Broken Axe Hunting Group has a tattoo imprinted on their earlobe. Look at my earlobe!"

  "If you dare lay even a single finger on me, you will definitely suffer a miserable fate!"

  CHAPTER 4 - BROKEN LIMBS

  Chu Gang could not understand how Su Lang had suddenly gotten this much stronger.

  After all, he knew that Su Lang had a weak body that made it absolutely impossible for him to walk the path of a martial cultivator.

  If he could not enter the path of martial cultivators, he would forever be an ordinary person with the status of trash. No matter how strong he was, he would never be able to fight against the Broken Axe Hunting Group who had many other martial cultivators.

  Hence, Chu Gang remained fearless. He was sure that Su Lang would be frightened be his words.

  "The Broken Axe Hunting Group?"

  Su Lang's eyes turned cold as he twisted the tip of Chu Gang's foot. Shrieking from the immense pain, his entire body convulsed and turned numb.

  The Broken Axe Hunting Group was a notorious gang who did everything they wanted to in the vicinity.

  Su Lang clearly remembered that the two bullies beat him into his previous seriously injured state also had tattoos on their earlobes.

  "Alright, the Broken Axe Hunting Group!"

  The hatred which accumulated in his heart over the past incidents intensified and turned into bloodthirst. He then exerted even more force to his grip on Chu Gang.

  "Agh! Su Lang, didn't you hear my words clearly? Let go of me!"

  Upon noticing Su Lang's intense hatred, Chu Gang lost all confidence as he shouted, "Let me go this instant! We'll have a talk to settle our grudges!"

  "It's not that simple to settle the score."

  Su Lang revealed a cold smile as his eyes burned with killing intent. "In addition to how considerate my parents were towards you and the wicked deeds that you committed against me, you will have to settle this score with your life!"

  "No! Su Lang, I was wrong!"

  Chu Gang was a piece of trash who bullied the weak and feared the strong. When he saw Su Lang emitting his killing intent, he was instantly frightened and lowered his head to beg for mercy.

  "Humph!"

  Su Lang suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the black Tang Blade from the wall beside him.

  "Please don't kill me.... I know I was wrong.... I apologize for the things I did!"

  Seeing how Su Lang was about to slash down with the blade, Chu Gang — scared out of his wits — screamed in desperation, "You know the murder is prohibited in the city. That is the iron law. You will suffer a terrible fate if you kill me."

  "The iron law is merely for the weak to abide by. That is the consensus!"

  Su Lang smiled coldly and slowly lifted his shiny blade.

  "Young Master Su, please spare my life! I... I don't want to die!"

  The fear in Chu Gang's heart gradually turned into despair. Tears and snot instantly flowed down his face.

  "Ther certainly is a way for me to spare your life."

  Su Lang pressed the chilling blade against Chu Gang's neck and made a slight cut before demanding, "Tell me everything about the Broken Axe Hunting Group, its background, location, number of members, strength, etc."

  "I'll tell you! So please don't kill me!"

  Chu Gang could feel the presence of the grim reaper lingering around him when Su Lang placed his blade against his neck. A chill shivered down his spine as his hair jolted straight up.

  "Since I just joined the Broken Axe Hunting Group, I have yet to gain much information about the background of the group."

  "However, I do know that the leader of the group is a Standard Martial Cultivator while the two other deputy leaders are Quasi Martial Cultivators. Thus, they indeed pose quite a threat against the city."

  "The cultivation of the other members range from the Initial Body Tempering Realm to the Peak Body Tempering Realm. Furthermore, there are also a large number of ordinary people like me."

  "The headquarters of the Broken Axe Hunting Group is located in the Golden Fruit Tower. I've only been to the Golden Fruit Bar in the outer perimeter, so I don't know where the core is situated."

  "Aside from that information, I also know that the group built a hunting base on the outskirts of the city in the territory of the F-class Wind Wolves."

  "That's all the information I have. I've already said it all. Please don't kill me!"

  Chu Gang finished speaking in a single breath. He was so scared that his entire body trembled and tears flowed down his face.

  "There are two members of the Broken Axe Hunting Group..."

  Su Lang described the appearance of the two bullies and asked, "Do you know them?"

  "Yes, I know them."

  Chu Gang nodded in fear and said, "One is called Dou Zhong, and the other is called Cai Feng! They are both at the Body Tempering stage who are usually placed in the strongholds outside the city."

  "I just happened to have a drink with them at the Golden Fruit Bar yesterday night when they came back."

  "I don't know why but they suddenly called for a group of men and left early this morning. Since I'm not able to get involved yet, I decided to come back for the time being."

  "Very good!"

  Su Lang nodded and sheathed the Tang Blade in his hands.

  Chu Gang heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing the outcome. His entire body was drenched in sweat, like a stray dog that had just been scooped up from the water.

  But at this moment, Su Lang cackled with laughter and moved his foot that was stepping on Chu Gang's head to his other intact arm.

  "Su Lang! What are you doing?!"

  Chu Gang's pupils shrank as his voice trembled with fear, "No! No!"

  Su Lang ignored Chu Gang's begging and stomped his foot down heavily.

  *Crack!*

  "Aaaaah!"

  Chu Gang shrieked like a pig being slaughtered as fluids flowed out from certain parts of his body.

  "I'm not done with you just yet!"

  Su Lang smiled and moved his foot to Chu Gang's thigh, "Did I not say that I would break all your limbs?"

  "I beg you, Young Master Su! Show mercy!"

  "How about... no!"

  "Agh!"

  ...

  CHAPTER 5 - THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONS CAN STILL BE UPGRADED!

  Not long after, Chu Gang — unable to tolerate the suffering any longer — cried out in pain and fainted.

  Taking his dire screams into account, Su Lang made sure to close all the doors and windows earlier. Furthermore, the sound insulation material in this period prevented any sort of noise from leaking out of his room. Otherwise, it would have surely attracted trouble.

  "This is actually pretty satisfying!"

  Looking at Chu Gang's broken limbs, Su Lang revealed a smug smile before immediately pulling a chair over and sitting down.

  He certainly did not forget that the activation of the first function of the system also triggered the Property Panel ability.

  "This ability is quite useful!"

  As his lips curled up into a crescent, Su Lang thought to himself, 'With this function, I will not only be able to look at my status, but I will even be able to see my target's information. If I use it to my advantage, I will never be defeated. System, activate the Property Panel!"

  [Name]: Su Lang

  [Race] : Human

  [Aptitude]: Turbid Body

  [Realm Level] : Initial Body Tempering

  [Attack Level] : Initial Body Tempering

  [Defense Level] : Initial Body Tempering

  [Movement Level] : I
nitial Body Tempering

  [Endurance Level] : Initial Body Tempering

  [Skill Mastery] : Infinite Heart Sutra

  [System Functions has been activated]: Cultivation Function (Level 1)

  "Although my [Aptitude] states that I have a turbid body, I'll ignore that fact for now. After all, I can cultivate even without talent!"

  Glancing through the interface, Su Lang shifted his gaze towards the [Skill Mastery] column.

  "Infinite Heart Sutra?"

  A moment later, Su Lang recalled information about this skill from his previous memories.

  It turned out that this was currently the most advanced cultivation technique in Azure Star.

  According to the unspoken rule of the market, high-level cultivation techniques would be monopolized and sealed. Thus, it should have been impossible for Su Lang to learn about this cultivation technique.

  That, however, is only under normal circumstances.

  Unless one was a close relative or a personal disciple, the martial experts with such techniques might not even be willing to teach and spread their cultivation methods until their death.

  Firstly, if their cultivation methods were exposed by the enemy, it would be very dangerous for them.

  Secondly, most martial cultivators were selfish bastards who wanted to keep things for themselves. They would naturally not want their high-level techniques to spread around the world.

  Furthermore, wouldn't there be a possibility for someone else with a higher aptitude to surpass them? If that was the case, wouldn't they soon have to step down from their high position?

  When that time comes, they would lose all status, wealth, and influence! Of course, the beauties surrounding them would also leave them.

  Hence, the powerhouses' monopoly on high-level cultivation methods was extremely strict. As a matter of fact, even the low-level cultivations methods were quite difficult to come by nowadays.

  The high-level cultivation technique, Infinite Heart Sutra, was widely known throughout the world. Stories about the technique have even flown through the ears of children.
