When Yun Fei opened his eyes again, he found himself in a vast, white space.
In this space, there was nothing but a boundless expanse of white and a panel before him.
[First Transmigration: In this life, you conquered a Dynasty in just half a month, establishing the Da Fei Dynasty. Through diligent use of medicine, you successfully reached the Innate Realm, then created a unified Dynasty, and finally departed in a mysterious way, leaving behind legends about you throughout the Wuxia world.]
[Total Points Acquired: 300]
[Currently Redeemable Items: Innate Early Stage 100 points, Great Reversion Pill 30 points, Minor Reversion Pill 5 points, Vermillion Fruit 20 points, Millennium Snow Lotus 50 points, Blood Bodhi 30 points, Millennium Blood Ganoderma 30 points...]
[Note: Unredeemed items can be saved for the next redemption.]
Yun Fei looked at the panel before him and the 300 points.
He checked the redeemable items.
He was slightly surprised, not expecting that items he had used before were also available for redemption.
Moreover, the hint below made Yun Fei's eyes light up even more.
Didn't this mean that if he encountered a good item but didn't have enough points to redeem it, he could save it for the next time?
This was great!
Without hesitation, he decided to prioritize redeeming the 'Innate Early Stage' Cultivation.
[Points - 100]
As 100 points were deducted from the panel, Yun Fei immediately felt his internal power grow.
Soon, his Realm reached the Innate Early Stage.
After a brief sensation, he noticed that his body's state was much smoother than it had been in that Wuxia world.
After moving around for a bit, he understood why.
In that world, he had forcibly enhanced his strength by taking medicine.
Although his Cultivation was not low, his Foundation was unstable, and his potential was limited.
Furthermore, because his power was externally boosted, his control over his Internal Energy was far inferior to someone who had truly Cultivated it; he didn't even have 50% control, and his body's coordination was poor.
In short, there were many flaws.
But this time, with the System's enhancement, all these side effects disappeared, as if he had truly Cultivated through his own efforts.
After experiencing his new state again, Yun Fei continued to browse other redeemable items.
After a moment's thought, he chose two Millennium Snow Lotuses and two Blood Bodhis.
Millennium Snow Lotus was a good item.
Compared to its effect of helping to Breakthrough to the Innate Realm, its more practical use was that consuming it granted a 'Hundred Poisons Immunity' Physique, healing any illness; in short, it was simply useful.
To obtain it, Yun Fei had specifically dispatched an army of a million deep into the Kunlun Snow Mountain, a place known as a Forbidden Land, losing hundreds of thousands of troops before finding it.
After all, that place had at least 10 Heaven-Grade Yao Beasts.
As for the Blood Bodhi, it was the only item that could enhance Comprehension Ability, so he naturally couldn't miss it.
As for the other redeemable items, Yun Fei glanced at them and gave up on them.
Most of those were for enhancing Cultivation, which for him, did not have a priority for redemption at the moment.
However, all of these had substitutes, and moreover, Cultivation gained through 'pill-popping' easily led to an unstable Foundation, so he did not choose to redeem them, merely muttering 'exit' in his mind.
His vision plunged into darkness once more.
When Yun Fei opened his eyes again, he was back in his small room.
The television screen was still playing the news.
Unlike last time, he no longer felt fear.
After a brief perception, Yun Fei confirmed that the person in the wardrobe was just an ordinary person.
Of course, that wasn't the main point.
What truly concerned Yun Fei was that the person was clearly trembling violently.
At first, Yun Fei was a bit puzzled, but after a moment's thought, he understood.
Put yourself in their shoes: if you broke into a room, killed someone, and then hid in a wardrobe.
But not long after, the person whose head you had just smashed with a hammer stood up again and stared intently at you—
If it were you, wouldn't you panic?
Once he figured it out, Yun Fei's lips curved slightly upward.
First, he added a little special effect: making the curtains move without wind.
Then, he released a trace of Innate Realm Qi, causing the surrounding air to subtly vibrate.
After doing all this, Yun Fei, relying on his Innate Realm perception, sensed that the person's heartbeat in the wardrobe had clearly accelerated.
He tilted his head slightly, his gaze fixed on the wardrobe, unmoving.
Then, he channeled his Internal Energy, allowing himself to slowly float up.
He lowered his voice, using his Internal Energy to make it soft yet extremely penetrating, speaking in a hoarse, low tone:
"Why... why did you kill me?"
"What did I... do wrong? Why... did you kill me?"
The man in the wardrobe was breathing rapidly, his fingers desperately digging into the wardrobe door.
Through the gap, he saw a strange smile appear on Yun Fei's pale face.
Even more terrifying was that this guy, whose head he should have smashed with a hammer, actually stood up again.
The man trembled all over, his eyes fixed on that face, almost unmoving.
Staring for too long, his eyes became dry, and he subconsciously blinked.
In that instant, Yun Fei's figure seemed to teleport, suddenly moving a large step closer.
"Thump thump thump!"
The man's heart beat faster and faster.
Through the gap in the wardrobe, he stared intently into Yun Fei's eyes.
No matter how scared he was, the man dared not move.
But how could such a physiological reaction maintain an open-eyed state indefinitely?
The man finally couldn't help but blink.
Yun Fei's figure was even closer, just three body-widths away from him.
A gurgling sound came from the man's throat, and cold sweat soaked the back of his clothes.
He trembled all over but dared not make a sound.
His eyes were fixed on Yun Fei, not daring to blink again.
However, his body's instinctive reactions were not something he could control at will.
He blinked again.
"Thump!"
With a dull thud, Yun Fei's face was almost pressed against the gap in the wardrobe.
His pale skin glowed with a strange light in the dim illumination.
"I found you."
The man finally broke down.
He violently pushed open the wardrobe door, flailing his limbs wildly, screaming hysterically:
"Go away! Go away! You're already dead! I saw you die with my own eyes!"
Yun Fei gently stepped back, the smile on his lips deepening.
"Yes... I'm dead."
"Then who... is standing before you now?"
The man's movements froze, and fear engulfed him like a tide.
He rolled his eyes and fainted directly.
Yun Fei looked at the fallen man, touched his head, and thought to himself:
"He's too easily scared."
...Early morning.
Yun Fei looked down at the blood bead in his palm; it was what he had spent some effort compressing and refining from the male corpse last night.
After all, if not handled this way, having a corpse lying around the house would ultimately be a very troublesome matter.
The method was not complicated; one only needed to gradually compress the corpse with Internal Energy, eventually solidifying it into a blood bead about the size of a palm.
Last night, he had also spent some time conducting a simple 'interrogation' of the man.
The person had broken into the house not for robbery or revenge, nor was it directed at the original owner himself.
It was simply because the original owner had bad luck, forgetting to close a window, which allowed this fleeing terrorist to seize the opportunity, climb in through the window, and intended to hide for a moment.
As a result, he happened to run into him and thus lost his life.
Thinking of this, Yun Fei divided the blood bead in his hand into dozens of portions, of varying sizes.
After leaving the house, he found a secluded spot and threw these blood beads into the lake one by one, as fish bait.
After completing this, he clearly noticed that the fish in the lake were more active than before.
He paused to observe for a moment, then turned and left, his steps steady, like an ordinary person.
In truth, Yun Fei was not clear if supernatural powers existed in this world; although he had not discovered any so far, even so, acting cautiously was always harmless.
Back home once again, he simply recalled the memories in his mind.
Then he checked online and found that this world was not much different from his original world; aspects like entertainment and culture were basically similar, akin to a parallel world.
