Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 – A New World, A New Body, A Ruthless Decision

As the system countdown ended… a new world awaited him.

As soon as the system countdown ended—

3…

2…

1…

Suddenly, Kim felt as if his entire soul was pulled away by an invisible force.

The world in front of him began to shatter…

And the very next moment—

Everything had changed.

New World — New Identity

When he slowly opened his eyes…

He was no longer in his old room.

His body also felt different.

All around him was a dense forest—

Tall trees, light Qi in the air, and a strange atmosphere.

At that moment, the system's voice echoed in his mind—

[You are successfully transferred.]

[Planet Name: Veylorn]

[Low Core Foundation — Rising Potential World]

He looked at his hands…

And instantly understood—

👉 His soul had entered someone else's body.

Now—

👉 This body's name was — Lin

Team and Mission

Lin looked around—

He was not alone.

Four other disciples were present with him.

Total five people:

👉 Zhao Feng

👉 Li Shen

👉 Chen Yu

👉 Mei Lin

👉 Lin (Main Character)

Among them—

👉 3 Male (Zhao Feng, Li Shen, Chen Yu)

👉 2 Female (Mei Lin + one more female — Su Yan)

Everyone's cultivation—

👉 Qi Refining First Level

In front of them—

👉 A huge Wolf Beast was standing

👉 Qi Refining Third Level

Zhao Feng said—

"Everyone get ready! We have to finish it quickly!"

At that moment, Lin started receiving the memories of this body—

👉 They were all a team

👉 They came on a mission

👉 They had to kill this beast and take its core

Lin thought calmly—

"So this is my new beginning…"

First Hunt

All five attacked the wolf together.

The fight was not easy.

But because of teamwork—

👉 They brought the beast down

Chen Yu quickly took out its core.

Everyone took a sigh of relief.

But—

👉 The danger was not over yet

Sudden Second Attack

A sound came from the bushes…

And the very next moment—

👉 Two more wolves came out

This time their movement was faster.

They directly attacked.

Dangerous Situation

"Be careful!" — Su Yan shouted

But this time—

The situation became worse.

👉 Mei Lin was directly attacked

👉 She was badly injured

The remaining four immediately went defensive.

But—

Both wolves were at Third Level.

The situation was dangerous.

Lin's Decision

Lin understood everything in a single moment.

He immediately said—

"Form two groups!"

Everyone looked at him—

But there was clarity in his voice.

👉 Zhao Feng + Chen Yu

👉 Lin + Li Shen

Su Yan stayed back to support Mei Lin.

First Clash

Lin and Li Shen moved toward one wolf.

The wolf directly attacked—

And struck Lin in the stomach.

Blood came out…

But Lin did not stop.

He adjusted the attack…

And countered at the right timing.

Within a few moves—

👉 The wolf lost its balance

And then—

👉 Lin finished it

Everyone was shocked

Li Shen stepped back—

"How… is he this fast…?"

Others were also shocked.

But Lin said nothing.

👉 He picked up the core

👉 And kept it with himself

Second Fight

Then he immediately went toward Zhao Feng.

The second wolf was still active.

The three attacked together—

And after some time—

👉 That one also fell

Core Decision

This time—

Lin picked up the second core as well.

Chen Yu wanted to say something—

But Lin spoke first—

"I killed both these beasts.

So the cores are mine."

Everyone went silent.

Now their behavior no longer had the same confidence.

System Reward

[Fear Detected: +4 Epiphany Points]

Lin noticed it.

Now he understood—

👉 Even fear can become power

Leaving the Forest

Everyone started quickly moving out of the forest.

But—

After some time they realized—

👉 They were not able to get out

"We were near the exit…!"

"What is this…?"

👉 They were trapped in a formation

A maze-like trap.

End of Formation

After a long time—

As night fell—

👉 The formation disappeared on its own

Everyone sighed in relief.

But—

👉 The real danger was still left

Senior's Arrival

A person appeared in front of them.

👉 Name — Wang Tao

👉 Qi Refining Third Level Peak

He spoke in a calm voice—

"So… you all killed three beasts…"

"Now give me their cores."

Atmosphere of Fear

Chen Yu immediately handed over his core.

The other disciples hesitated.

Then—

👉 Everyone looked at Lin

Direct Refusal

Wang Tao said—

"You give yours too."

Lin clearly said—

"I won't."

System Reaction

[Anger Detected: +3 → +4 → +5 → +6]

Clash

Lin said—

"I need these cores for my cultivation.

I won't give them."

The other disciples slowly stepped back.

They knew—

👉 Wang Tao had a powerful background

Fight Begins

Wang Tao laughed—

"So you are refusing…?"

"Fine…"

And he attacked.

Difficult Battle

Wang Tao was strong—

Peak Third Level

Lin was at First Level—

And also injured.

But—

👉 His understanding was better

👉 His timing was precise

The fight went on for long.

Many times Lin stepped back…

But every time he regained control.

Final Strike

At the right moment—

Lin closed the distance…

And delivered a direct strike.

👉 Wang Tao fell to the ground

He could not get up.

As soon as Lin finished Wang Tao…

for a few moments, deep silence filled the entire atmosphere.

The remaining disciples were standing there—

Shock and fear were clearly visible on their faces.

No one had the courage to say even a single word.

Without wasting time, Lin bent down near Wang Tao's body and started searching it.

First, he removed a space ring from his finger.

As soon as he activated the ring and looked inside—

His gaze immediately stopped on a scroll.

Lin took out the scroll and started observing it carefully.

This was not an ordinary technique.

Its energy flow, structure, and pattern were completely different.

Lin observed it carefully for a few seconds…

And then directly concluded—

"This is not an outer sect technique…"

He thought further—

"This looks like an inner sect technique…"

"Maybe Wang Tao got it from his brother…"

It was clearly written on the scroll—

👉 Phantom Shadow Steps

A high-level footwork technique.

Lin immediately started understanding its nature—

This technique was based on speed, illusionary movement, and instant direction change.

If mastered properly—

The enemy could be finished before reacting.

At that moment—

👉 The System activated

[High-grade Technique Detected]

[Phantom Shadow Steps]

[Activation Cost: 990 Epiphany Points]

[Do you want to activate?]

Lin calculated his current points.

"990 points…"

"But if this technique is this high-level…

Then missing it would be foolish…"

Without any delay—

👉 He selected "Yes"

At the very next moment—

A subtle energy wave spread throughout his body.

The complete understanding of the technique was directly transferred into his mind—

👉 movement patterns

👉 execution timing

👉 energy control

Within a few seconds—

👉 Lin successfully learned Phantom Shadow Steps

He slightly stepped forward—

And his body blurred for a moment.

He immediately understood—

"This technique… is even more powerful than expected…"

🌲 Forest Exit — Changing Atmosphere

The remaining disciples were still silently looking at Lin.

Now their behavior no longer had the same confidence.

👉 Fear

👉 Pressure

👉 Respect

All three were clearly visible.

No one had the courage to question him.

After some time—

Everyone slowly started leaving the forest.

This time—

There was no conversation.

Only silence… and a heavy atmosphere.

🏯 Sect Return

After some time—

Everyone safely returned to the sect.

As soon as they entered—

Lin looked at the other disciples and calmly said—

"You all go and submit the full report of this mission in the Task Hall."

"I will go to my room and handle my injuries."

The other disciples immediately nodded.

Now none of them had the courage to speak against Lin.

And then—

Lin walked toward his room without looking back.

🩸 Room Scene — Growth Begins

Lin reached his room and slowly sat down.

His body was still injured—

But this time…

There was no pain on his face.

👉 There was calculation

👉 There was planning

👉 And hunger for growth

He immediately opened the system.

First—

He took out all three beast cores.

And activated the system's exchange option.

[Beast Core Detected]

[Exchange Value: 300 Epiphany Points]

[Confirm?]

👉 Confirm

At the very next moment—

His points increased.

👉 Total Epiphany Points: 1150

Lin immediately took the next step.

He opened the cultivation upgrade section—

And upgraded his cultivation.

Within a few seconds—

👉 His cultivation increased

👉 Qi Refining Second Level

The energy flow in his body immediately changed.

👉 His strength had increased significantly

⚡ Points Balance

After the upgrade—

He checked his points again—

👉 Remaining Points: 570

Lin calmly thought—

"Now I have to grow fast…"

"This is only the beginning…"

⏳ Time Secret

Lin checked another thing in the system—

👉 Time Ratio

And as soon as he saw it—

His expression became serious.

👉 Original World: 24 Hours = 1 Year here

Lin immediately calculated—

"So that means.
