“The final trial is simple. Your mind will be sent to a mortal body. The setting will be a Mortal World with little to no Spiritual Qi. Your mission will be to create a method of longevity. The ranking will be based on the person who can live the longest,” said Lord Spirit.

You said little to no Spiritual Qi. Can you be more specific? asked Tong Ruobing. There was a vast difference between a world with absolute zero Spiritual Energy to one still having some trace of it–no matter how little.

You can find out on your own. Any more concerns?

No one said anything as they contemplated how to pass this trial. From the basic information provided it was obvious that things would be more complex than stated.

In that case let’s begin.

The participants proceeded to the Pagoda. When Wang Wei opened his eyes he found himself lying on a rock-hard bed wearing old clothes that had been washed too many times. He stood up from his bed and immediately saw how skinny and malnourished he was.

Even when he was an orphan back on Earth he was never this weak.

Wang Wei slowly walked to a bronze mirror to see his reflection. It was his face instead of somebody’s else. Then some information appeared in his mind which simply stated he was an orphan in this village; the info also contained some basic information about the villager and its villagers.

Wang Wei took a moment to ponder his next course of action. The first step was to decide whether this world had any Spiritual Qi and its quantity; this information would determine the method he would use next.

Unfortunately he could not sense anything as this body severely restricted the power of his soul. He needed to enter a deep state of meditation to sense energy. But with how weak his body was he could die if he did so.

The mind or spirit connects the soul to the body. If he entered deep meditation with his malnourished body his fleshly body could not bear the process.

‘I need some meat and nutrients’ thought Wang Wei as he considered his options. Hunting would not work in his current state so he decided to steal. There were a few villagers with livestock so he targeted them.

He memorized the layout of the village and the villager’s habits–like sleeping and drinking time. Then he stole some vegetables and a chicken from one of the neighbors to make soup. There were no spices including salt so the food tasted horrible.

‘I can’t remember the last time I felt hunger’ thought Wang Wei as he munched on a chicken leg. Ever since he began cultivating he never felt the sensation of hunger. If he counted the time he spent listening to his Ancestor preaching he was now over 100000 years. And the sensation was the first time in a very long time; it somehow felt nostalgic.

He still had his desire for good food but the body’s instinct for nutrients.

‘Aging sickness hunger and death are fundamental things defining a human. So am I a human without these things?’ Wang Wei was not having an existential crisis about his identity since he did not care that much. He believed that since he still had his emotions and desires and since he thought himself to be human he was human.

However now that he had nothing else to do he wanted to ponder this philosophical argument. Of course once he finished stuffing his face and digested the food he went to bed since he was tired.

For the next month Wang Wei became a thief at night while helping on the farm in the morning. Because of his quiet and helpful personality no one suspected him when his thievery reached a point it could no longer be hidden. The villagers organized a night watch group to catch the thief and Wang Wei offered a few opinions on better organizing things.

Of course no one caught him. During this month he used a martial breathing method he knew to maximize the absorption of nutrients from all the food he ingested. As such he could return to normal health in just one month.

Wang Wei had to wear more oversized clothes to hide the changes in his body since he was no longer as skinny as a bone. And with a semi-healthy body he could finally attempt deep meditation. Unfortunately he did not have the environment to do so.

In his current situation if he was disturbed and forcefully woken up from deep meditation he could injure his spirit and soul. And he did not feel it was safe to just barricade the hut he lived in since it was not soundproof. With the desire to be cautious he spent another month digging out a hideout.

Wang Wei took this time to build some muscles and allowed the scandal of his thievery to die amongst the villagers before they got the government involved. He took the time to go hunt since he only needed a bow and arrow and for his new body to adapt to his previous skill.

After building the hideout he attempted his first deep meditation. Usually Wang Wei could see the Spiritual Qi between Heaven and Earth with his eyes. And even if that was possible it should only require a few minutes of meditation to sense it or an hour at best. Unfortunately he spent more than four hours before detecting something; that’s how rare Spiritual Qi was in this world.

‘With how weak Spiritual Qi is if I nourish my body with it I can only live up to 80 years.’

The energy of this world was so thin that no energy system Wang Wei knew could be used to begin the path of cultivation. And if he only used it to temper and nourished his body he estimated he could only live a maximum of 80 years.

In this world the average life span is 40 to 50 years so living up to 80 years could be considered achieving longevity. But it was not nearly as good for the trial.

‘I’m sure there might be some herbs deep in the mountain that absorbed a large quantity of Spiritual Qi. But could I get my hands on one?’

For the next week he searched the nearby mountain while hunting. Unfortunately he never saw any spiritual herb. He also never encountered any animals with spirituality–which would also be a good supplement. Wang Wei then concluded that his luck in this world was average and sub-par.

‘I must create a cultivation system perfectly suited to this low-level world.’

Wang Wei had another option to build a science and technology civilization. Then use genetic engineering to achieve longevity. But he knew the consequences and decided otherwise.

Inside his hideout he pondered deeply about his next step.

‘Essence Qi and Spirit. These three treasures are the essence of cultivation and the three fundamental paths to achieving longevity. If I follow the correlation between them I could live a long life in this poor environment.’

An idea of the way forward began in his mind. ‘Let’s begin with Essence.’

Wang Wei began to train his body in martial arts. He used his abundant knowledge to create the perfect exercise for his body. Training requires energy to support the body’s evolution. And since he could not rely on Spiritual Qi he found another alternative: Blood Energy.

Animals’ flesh and bones contain a large amount of blood energy based on their sizes. And through consuming them Wang Wei acquired the energy his body needed to become stronger.

Every day he would hunt in the forest with traps and his bow and arrow. He consumed the prey’s flesh and trained in his martial art. In just six months Wang Wei’s body has the strength of three cows. He could smash a large boulder with one punch and fight a tiger with his bare hands.

Unfortunately he encountered another problem. He needed to consume the equivalent of 10 cows every day to maintain his training. Although blood energy was a form of energy it was also the lowest kind with many impurities making absorbing it extremely inefficient–even with martial techniques to optimize the process.

And there was also the issue of impurities. Wang Wei had to spend at least five hours a day on the toilet removing these impurities from his body. And since he was not a cultivator and expunged impurities through his skin he had no choice but to use the toilet.

‘With the time I spent hunting eating training and shitting I will never finish the [Essence Refining Technique.’

It did not take him long to realize the solution to his problem: money. As long he had money he could cut off the time to hunt and cook focusing on his training. Furthermore with money he could also buy rare resources like 100-year-old ginseng that are great for nourishing the body.

‘It’s like the ancient said only the rich can practice martial arts.’

After coming to this conclusion Wang Wei decided to leave the village to the nearest city to make some wealth.

After being reincarnated in a world of Gods, Demons, and Great Emperors, Wang Wei embarks on a journey to bear Heaven Mandate, proves the Dao, and proclaims himself a Great Emperor--a Supreme Being that overlooked Myriad World and Races. However, his Dao involves despising fate and its encompassing glory. So what awaits our protagonist on his journey full of vicissitudes to defy and even control fate? While he controls the fate of countless races and worlds, is fate playing with him? Can he escape the very shackles of fate that he controls? Better Synopsys: After an unknown cosmic accident that enveloped the Earth, Wang Wei was reincarnated into a magical world of spiritual cultivation. This world was composed of powerful Demons, cunning and brutal Devils, ruthless and indifferent Gods, detached and ethereal Immortals. More Importantly, Great Emperors--Supreme Beings that stand above everyone and everything, even life and death itself. Despite being born in one of the most powerful sects in the world, Wang Wei was placed under tremendous pressure when so many expectations were placed on him by his sect due to the fact they have not cultivated a Great Emperor for countless millennia--an act which threatened the fundamental status of his family, friends, and sect. On top of that, Wang Wei was not one of the chosen few of this world that was granted special gifts by Heaven, thus further aggravating his circumstances. However, he did not retreat in the face of adversity. With the mindset that “If Heaven does not give me, I shall take it for myself”, Wang Wei begins to plan his rise to the top with a brilliant tactical mind and the help of his mysterious soul so that one day he will become a Great Emperor that not only control his fate but the fate of all lives in existence. This story has a similar setting as Emperor Dominion, I am a True Villain, and Scoring the Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Get-go.
