Chapter 1: Sebastian Force, half-draconic, half-human

Upper north of the North Continent.

Bright Moon Sect’s outer disciples’ housing area.

“Sigh… Cultivating with a lower-quality spiritual root is practically torture.”

Opening his eyes, Sebastian Force couldn’t help but let out a sigh and grumbled.

It has been a few days since Sebastian Force had transmigrated over to this cultivation world.

In Sebastian Force’s previous life, he was a hard worker with a 9-5 job at a state-owned enterprise.

As an orphan, for the sake of not letting down the orphanage that helped raise him, Sebastian Force spent his teenage years pretty much entirely on studying.

With hard work and perseverance, he managed to get into one of the top universities in his country with a fully funded scholarship, and in the end, he managed to graduate with a degree.

After university, he landed himself a 9-5 job at a state-owned enterprise and thus began his adult life.

In his adult years, he basically transitioned from spending his entire time on studying to working at his job.

Although he had a 9-5 job, he would actively opt in for overtime work as it meant more pay and a higher chance of promotion.

And he did that for the sake of having enough money to support the orphanage that raised him, and also to save up for a house, in hopes of one day being able to start a family of his own.

But to Sebastian Force’s dismay, at 29 years old, after 8 years of working at his job…

Right when he only needed a few more months and he would finally be able to afford his own house…

He was transmigrated over to this cultivation world!

To him, it was practically like he had fallen from heaven to hell.

Especially when he factored in the identity of the person he had transmigrated into.

The identity of the body that he had transmigrated over to?

Bright Moon Sect’s outer sect disciple.

A level 2 energy refining cultivator who possessed a lower-quality spiritual root.

An unpure draconic who was half-draconic and half-human.

What did this mean?

This meant that Sebastian Force was currently not only a half-blooded species, where neither the human race nor draconic race would treat him as their own, but he was also a low-level beginner cultivator who possessed the worst spiritual root, and spiritual root was what mainly decides a cultivator’s cultivation aptitude.

There were various realms in the path of cultivation toward immortality, and the first realm was basically energy refining realm.

And as the name implied, energy refining realm was the realm where cultivators refined spiritual energy.

The more spiritual energy that an energy refining cultivator was able to refine, the higher level they would be.

There were 10 levels in every realm, and when a cultivator reaches the tenth level of their realm, it meant that they could start to try and break through to the next realm of cultivation.

…

“I have tried cultivating for a few days, and the amount of spiritual energy that I managed to refine in those few days is a little worrisome…”

“At the rate that I am managing to refine spiritual energy, it’s going to take me at least a few years to even be able to break through to level 3…”

“Worst of all, that is if I cultivate all day long without stopping, but that is evidently impossible.”

“And as of now, I only have a few years left to reach level 3 of energy refining realm, if not, I am going to get kicked out of Bright Moon Sect…”

“All I can do now is pray and hope that this system is going to be able to help me out with my situation.”

Sebastian Force looked toward his left side, and in the empty space that was situated on his left, a blue color hologram screen that curved around the upper left of his body could be seen to be there.

[Time until system accumulates enough spiritual energy to get activated: 11:11]

This hologram screen was something that appeared right after Sebastian Force had transmigrated over to this world.

And right now, all of Sebastian Force’s hope was placed onto the system that was going to become activated soon.

“Sigh, with a lower-quality spiritual root and little to no cultivation resources, I’m practically done for if the system isn’t able to provide me with any help.”

“While waiting for the system to activate, I should head out and take a breather.”

“It has been a few days since I transmigrated over, and I haven’t left this house even once…”

“If I remember correctly, today is the day where Bright Moon Sect is holding their yearly disciple recruitment test.”

“Since I don’t have anywhere that I plan to go, might as well head over and see how the disciple recruitment test is going.”

Upon coming to a decision, Sebastian Force got off from his bed, went to wash up, then left his house.

…

After 10 minutes of walking, Sebastian Force finally arrived at the main gate of Bright Moon Sect, and when he arrived, he realized that the disciple recruitment test had just ended.

“Bright Moon Sect’s disciple recruitment test is hereby concluded!”

“All of the disciples who have passed the disciple recruitment test are allowed to follow me back to Bright Moon Sect!”

At the outside of Bright Moon Sect’s main gate, an examination elder said indifferently as he summoned out a huge flying disc on the ground.

Immediately, the newly recruited disciples began walking over and getting onto the flying disc.

Once all of the new disciples had gotten onto the flying disc, the examination elder waved his hand, and a barrier could be seen enveloping over the disc.

And in the next moment, the flying disc flew high into the sky, then flew at high speed into Bright Moon Sect.

The flying disc was most likely flying over to the inner area of Bright Moon Sect, and if the new disciples were to walk from the main gate to the inner area, it would take them roughly 30 to 40 minutes.

The administrative office and library were located in the inner area of Bright Moon Sect, and the administrative office was where the new disciples had to go first, followed by the library.

The administrative office was where the new disciples were going to register their identities and obtain their lodging details.

And the library was where they would be able to get their first cultivation technique.

…

As Sebastian Force watched the flying disc flew into Bright Moon Sect, the countdown on his screen had finally reached 0.

Sebastian Force turned his eyes away from the sky and looked toward the screen.

On the screen, he could see lines of text began to appear below the first line of text that was on the screen.

[Time until system accumulates enough spiritual energy to get activated: 00:00]

[Activating…]

[Cultivation Family System has been activated!]
