A low, incredulous laugh bubbled up in Lin Feng's throat, growing louder and more manic with every passing second.
"Hahaha! It's really true! I'm… I'm actually handsome! No—more than handsome. I'm devastatingly good-looking!" Lin Feng shouted, throwing his head back as pure, unfiltered joy surged through him.
He struck pose after pose in front of the mirror—turning his head to admire the profile, flexing his arms, running his fingers through his hair—each movement confirming the impossible truth.
Back on Earth, he had been the complete opposite: short, overweight, acne-scarred, the kind of guy who faded into the background at every gathering.
Girls had avoided him. Bullies had targeted him.
Even his own reflection had been a source of quiet despair.
But now… now he had been reborn into a body that could make immortals jealous.
Grinning like a madman, Lin Feng suddenly remembered one final, crucial detail from the original owner's fragmented memories.
His pulse quickened with eager anticipation.
With a dramatic flourish, he untied the sash of his robes and let the silk fabric slide to the floor, pooling around his ankles.
He looked down.
Then he looked again, just to be sure.
A thunderous, triumphant laugh exploded from his chest.
"Hahaha! Holy heavens—it's enormous! Absolutely massive!"
In his previous life, his "little brother" had been a source of endless embarrassment—a pitiful one-inch disappointment that had crushed his confidence long before anyone else even knew about it.
But now?
Now it hung heavy and proud, easily longer than a standard ruler, thicker than the fattest Coca-Cola bottle he'd ever seen.
Even flaccid, it radiated power, virility, the unmistakable mark of a protagonist destined for greatness.
Lin Feng cupped it reverently, as if holding a divine artifact, and laughed again, tears of joy forming at the corners of his eyes.
"With this face… this height… and this monstrous dragon between my legs—how could any woman in this world resist me? How could any enemy stand against me?" He paced the room now, naked and utterly unashamed, his voice rising with each declaration.
"I'll conquer sects! I'll topple empires! I'll build a harem that spans continents! Beauties from every corner of this xianxia world will fall at my feet, begging for a single night of passion!"
He threw his arms wide, as if embracing the entire universe.
"This world doesn't know it yet, but a new supreme being has arrived. Lin Feng is here—and this entire xianxia realm will be mine!"
His laughter echoed through the small cultivation chamber for a long, long time, wild and unrestrained, the sound of a man who had finally received the ultimate compensation from the heavens.
He continued to do so for almost 5 minutes until he thought of something important.
Lin Feng froze for a moment as a shocking realization hit him.
"System! Grandpa! Cheat! Where's my system cheat, my golden finger?!" he bellowed, his voice echoing off invisible walls.
Panic mixed with hope made his chest pound. He had read countless transmigration stories—every MC, every hero, every "lucky soul" had a cheat, a golden finger, some miraculous ability that let them dominate their new world from the start.
Surely… surely he deserved one too!
Almost immediately, a gentle, melodious voice floated into his mind.
"Congratulations, host! You have acquired the Divine Eyes of the Eternal Dao."
Lin Feng staggered back, tripping over his own legs. "W-what?! Did she… just speak to me?!" His hands trembled as he tried to steady himself. "Th-thank you! Thank you! I knew you wouldn't fail me!"
He paused, taking a deep breath, then blurted out, "But… but what else can you do? What other functions do I get? How do I use it? Can I see hidden treasure? Can I destroy enemies with it? Can I become the strongest in the world instantly?!"
Silence.
Lin Feng blinked, uncertain if he had imagined the voice.
"Hello? Are you there? I… I know you can hear me! Speak to me!"
Still nothing. He groaned, rubbing his face.
"Figures. Nothing is ever simple. Fine, I'll just… wait?" His shoulders slumped, but a tiny spark of hope flickered in his chest.
He focused on his cheat.
Ding!
A line of glowing text hovered before his eyes as if etched into reality itself:
Divine Eyes of the Eternal Dao – The moment one awakens these eyes, the boundaries between mortal, immortal, and heaven itself collapse. They do not merely see—they understand. Every being, every technique, every law, and every hidden truth becomes painfully obvious.
Lin Feng's jaw dropped. He stared at the text, utterly stunned.
"Wait… wait… what? Did she just say I can see everything? Every secret technique? Every hidden truth in the world?" He felt a shiver run down his spine. "This… this is… insane! I… I can't believe it!"
His mind raced.
I can finally understand cultivation techniques instantly… see my enemies' weaknesses… even see the hidden laws of the universe… No more being weak… no more being laughed at… I… I… I'm going to be unstoppable!
He jumped up, pacing frantically.
"Oh my gods… oh my gods… this is exactly what I needed! This isn't just a cheat… this is a divine cheat! I can become stronger than anyone, smarter than anyone, and nobody—nobody—can touch me!"
A small, nervous laugh escaped him, but it quickly turned into a shout.
"Finally! Finally! I, Lin Feng, will not be a loser in this world! I will rise above every mortal, every cultivator, every monster, every heavenly being! Hah! The world… the world is MINE!"
And yet, even as he shouted, his mind buzzed with questions.
How exactly do I use it? How strong is it really? Are there limits?
With a single thought, Lin Feng decided it was time to test his newly acquired cheat.
He scanned the room and his eyes landed on a familiar book—the Basics of Cultivation.
This was no ordinary book for him; the Lin Feng of this world had already memorized it cover to cover, yet despite his flawless memory, he had always struggled to grasp the deeper wisdom hidden between the lines—the subtle truths about how to truly apply its myriad teachings in practice.
Ding!
