2026-02-09 15:04:25Holy crap, Supreme Heaven and Earth Nine Revolutions!
Above Heaven, below Earth, I alone reign supreme! That sounds so freaking cool!
Ryan's eyes sparkled like stars, and drool nearly dripped from his mouth.
Instinctively, he almost selected it immediately.
[Please choose carefully, host. Once the initial technique is selected, it cannot be changed.]
No, no, no! This is a lifelong decision! How can I just choose it because the name sounds awesome?
Ryan shook his head vigorously like a rattle drum.
Then he carefully reviewed all three techniques again.
Based on his many years of experience reading cultivation novels, he categorized the three techniques into three types.
Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique: Body cultivation method.
Heavenly Demon Art: Definitely a demonic technique.
Supreme Heaven and Earth Nine Revolutions: Cool and badass! Above Heaven, below Earth, I alone reign supreme!!!
Looking at it this way, the choice was obvious, right?
[...]
Ryan protested. "I am joking, System! What do you mean by that silence? Am I really that shallow?"
[Host, your drool is about to drip down.]
Hearing the system's reminder, Ryan embarrassedly wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.
No, I need to think about this more seriously!
Ryan felt he could not be fooled by appearances. After reading I Am the King of the Cultivation Realm, he already had psychological trauma.
The more awesome a technique's name sounded, the more terrible it actually was.
"System, what does it mean that the initial technique cannot be changed once selected?" Ryan decided to understand this better.
[Respected host, let me give you an example.]
[If you choose to cultivate the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, then during that same stage, you cannot cultivate any other techniques.]
[This means that during the Qi Condensation stage, you can only cultivate this one technique. Once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, you can choose again. But within the same stage, you cannot select other techniques.]
[The same applies to the other two techniques. Please consider your own needs carefully and choose wisely.]
"Oh, I see!" Ryan finally understood.
If he chose Supreme Heaven and Earth Nine Revolutions, which had the most realms, he would essentially enter a very long skill cooldown period.
Aside from that one technique, he could not learn anything else.
For Ryan at his current stage, this seemed somewhat unreliable.
Why? Because from what he saw in the novels, there was basically not a single skill worth using.
Right now, his only reliable source of power came from the system's techniques.
How should he choose?
Ryan's brow furrowed deeply. Kids make simple choices, but adults want everything! Unfortunately, reality did not allow that!
Looking at the current situation, the cheapest option Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique was most suitable for him. Upon mastery, he would possess the power of nine dragons and nine elephants!
Most people might not have a clear concept of what that number meant. But Ryan was different! He was someone who used to read cultivation novels until seven or eight in the morning!
The power of nine dragons and nine elephants the simplest way to understand it: if a meteor came hurtling toward you at tremendous speed, you could punch upward once and the meteor would be obliterated into dust.
With a mortal body, rivaling the divine!
Do not think this was an exaggeration. No matter which world you were in, dragons were legendary creatures. The strength of a single ancient divine dragon could completely match some immortals.
Although this was truly tempting, and it only cost 1 exchange coin.
But the Heavenly Demon Art below also seemed pretty good.
Since ancient times, villains always regretted too late they either got buried or destroyed.
But Ryan was different! Even if he became a villain, he would be a villain with a system!
In all mainstream novels, villains without systems no matter how powerful their techniques were would ultimately be destroyed by the protagonist.
But having a system changed everything! No matter what kind of protagonist you were, under my system-backed Heaven's Destined Great Villain, you could only tremble in fear! Hehehehe!
Thinking of this, Ryan felt like he had awakened some new personality of his.
Even his laughter became more villainous.
Looking at the description again: Transform into the Heavenly Demon immortal and indestructible!
Ryan thought: I totally get this! It is a lock-in cheat ability!
For Ryan, this was incredibly tempting.
Most importantly, the system had applied a discount. The system said the first technique was free, yet even after deducting that, it still cost 1.5 exchange coins.
This clearly demonstrated how heaven-defying the Heavenly Demon Art was!
Looking at Supreme Heaven and Earth Nine Revolutions below, aside from the cool and badass name, what use did it actually have?
All it said was that after mastering it, "above Heaven, below Earth, you alone will reign supreme." But what actual effects did it have? It said absolutely nothing.
It was just like those clickbait marketing accounts hyping things up like crazy at the start, but when you actually looked at the content, it was worse than a roadside stall.
Most critically, it was divided into nine realms! And it cost 2.5 exchange coins!
After one round of buying, he would be completely drained.
Yeah, the more he looked at it, the more it seemed like a trap!
Ryan immediately became vigilant. Who could not play word games?
Looking at it this way, the superiority among these three techniques was immediately clear, right?
Ryan announced. "System, I have decided!"
[Please make your selection, host.]
"I choose... choose..." Ryan hesitated slightly.
[Please trust your own judgment, host. The system unconditionally supports you.]
"Good!" Ryan felt deeply moved. This was truly an excellent system!
"I choose Supreme Heaven and Earth Nine Revolutions!"
[???]
The system really wanted to curse right now. Did you not just analyze everything so thoroughly? I was almost convinced by your reasoning!
"No particular reason. It sounds cool and badass. I like it." Ryan declared confidently.
Tell me, which man could resist the temptation of "above Heaven, below Earth, I alone will reign supreme"?
Hahahaha! With this divine technique in hand, I will be Heaven's Chosen One!
Ryan began daydreaming again, imagining himself standing on a high platform with all the people in the world bowing at his feet.
Holy crap, was this not exciting?!
The system thought: Then what was the point of all that analysis you just did?
Of course, saying such things would violate the system's professional ethics. It could only silently and unconditionally support the host's choice.

[System health scan complete. No physical abnormalities detected. Host's dizziness is likely the result of psychological suggestion.]"Are you genuinely this dense, or is it an act?" Ryan rolled his eyes at the notification.He took a breath and forced himself to think clearly.The situation was obvious now that he laid it out. Every skill and technique he'd acquired so far was high-grade.... which was great for combat, terrible for his wallet. High-grade meant high costs. And right now, his exchange coin balance was a devastating 3.5.It all came down to currency. It always came down to currency."System," Ryan said, "besides reading novels, what other ways are there to earn exchange coins?"[Dear host, in addition to extracting cultivation techniques and skills from novels, exchange coins can also be obtained by hunting spirits and ominous creatures. The amount rewarded scales with the target's level.][Additionally, rare materials and items of collectible value can be recycled for
Chapter 39: The System's True Cost
The two settled on the details, and after Ryan transferred a $30,000 deposit, the rusty iron sword was officially... nominally... his."Heh." Ryan closed his phone and leaned back with a grin. "Picking up treasures with my eyes closed. I'll be laughing in my sleep tonight."Then something clicked in the back of his mind."Oh right.... I never finished the third volume of 'King of Cultivation.'"He'd meant to read it right after buying it, but then came the trip to the black market with Danny and Rachel, the potions, the crash into bed, the awakening ceremony the next morning, the follow-up examination in the afternoon, Director Lee showing up in the evening, and then the whole online shopping spiral. The book had just... slipped through the cracks.Ryan walked over to his bookshelf and pulled out Volume Three of The King of the Immortal Cultivation World.He flipped to the title page."The Heavenly Emperor is reborn, and all bow low. The cultivation world trembles in unprecedented uph
Chapter 38: The Divine Iron Sword
"A divine iron sword? What on earth is that?"Curiosity got the better of Ryan, and he clicked on the user's profile.Turns out they were from Southern City... same as him. And right there on their homepage was a photo of the very sword they'd been raving about on the forum.It was... not impressive. The blade was rusty, chipped in several places, and looked like it had survived three wars and lost all of them. The design was ancient and bare-bones. Its only saving grace was the sword's surface... covered in intricate, mysterious runes that seemed almost out of place on such a battered piece of metal.The comment section had already devolved into chaos."Bro, you want $500,000 for this hunk of scrap? Are you insane?""If that sells for half a million, my grandma's kitchen knife is worth a billion.""Did you wander off a movie set? Take that thing to the antique market!""Here's five bucks. Use it to move to Western Province."+1 +1 +1...The post had gone viral in minutes, and the moc
Chapter 37: The Spirit Crystal Shopping
"Hmm... I think purchasing some resources to strengthen my physical quality will help improve things." Ryan said after thinking for a moment.There were also considerations involved. Firstly, he was not an Awakened individual and had no supernatural abilities. The only way to become stronger was through the system.Therefore, the cultivation methods that Mr. Hartwell just mentioned were actually not very effective for him.Looking at the current situation, the only things that could help him were the potions that improved his physical condition.Mr. Hartwell nodded and said. "That is right. Let us start with physical foundation. No matter what your supernatural ability is, you will not be at a disadvantage."Then Mr. Hartwell clicked on the website's Pharmaceuticals section.A wide variety of medicines were displayed, and their effects after use were also diverse."For improving physical quality, Iron Copper Spirit, Vajra Power Pill, and Steel Bone Paste these are all very good." Mr.
Chapter 36: The Training Path
Mr. Hartwell looked surprised. "I thought you knew. Look at the top right corner."Upon hearing this, Ryan finally saw the words "Awakened Level" at the top right corner of the website.Ryan frowned and said. "If that is the case, does it mean that Awakened-level users can only buy Awakened-level items and cannot buy items from higher-level users?"Ryan had not expected this restriction, and he was also somewhat worried about it.It was important to know that he was not an Awakened One. Strictly speaking, he was a cultivator.If a level requirement was mandatory here, Ryan would have no choice but to reluctantly use his father's account for now but what about the future.Mr. Hartwell shook his head and said. "That is not it. Only the forum is mandatory for level allocation. You can buy items freely, but the discounts vary. I set it up for convenience to show only Awakened-level products."After Mr. Hartwell explained, Ryan roughly understood how the website worked, and he also underst
Chapter 35: The Awakened Website
Director Lee once again praised Mrs. Hartwell's cooking skills and then prepared to leave.As the host, Mr. Hartwell naturally saw him off. The two long-lost classmates chatted for a while outside the door before the car engine's roaring sound started.Sometimes fate is just so unpredictable. Two once equally spirited and talented students—one now confined to this small town as an interesting yet scholarly professor, while the other achieved his ideals, although his initial values had more or less shifted.A moment later, a weary-looking Mr. Hartwell returned from outside, while Mrs. Hartwell was already in the kitchen washing the dishes.Mr. Hartwell walked straight to Ryan, who was sitting on the sofa staring blankly at the bank card with "a huge sum of money" on it."Tell me what happened." Mr. Hartwell said helplessly.Some things could be concealed from others, but as Ryan's father, he naturally needed to know the truth."Uh..." Ryan suddenly hesitated, facing the person who knew
