Recovering Lost Cultivation

'System Integration Complete.'

'Beginning Scan of Host: Xiao Yan.'

'Scan Complete.'

'Host has received a Message: Welcome!'

As multiple messages resounded throughout Xiao Yan's head, he remained unconscious.

---

Nine Hours Later.

"Ahh…" Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, as he sat up he felt a thumping in his head. "Great, a headache" he grumbled, unhappy with how his head felt like it was exploding. After remaining on his bed for a few more minutes as his headache slowly subsided, he finally stood up. Taking a look around his room he could only sigh. "That was such as strange dream."

Ding-

A sound resounded throughout Xiao Yan's head which caused him to jump, he began to frantically look around for the source of this sound, but his efforts were futile as he found no trace of where the sound originated from.

Ding-

'Host has received a Message: Welcome!' This time it wasn't just a sound, but a sentence. Xiao Yan still could not find the source of the sound but continued to be vigilant. 'What the fuck is going on? A message?' Xiao Yan was startled, and didn't know what was going on.

'Yes, Host has received a message from: The System'

"Wait, what? It responded to me, but I didn't say anything… unless… the reason I can't find the source is because it is coming from within my own head? I'm going insane…" spoke Xiao Yan aloud out of shock, who would have thought that he would be hearing sounds within his head. 'Anway, it says I have a message… What am I supposed to do with that? Read the message?'

Ding-

'Opening Message.' As the notification spoke in his head, a semi-transparent floating screen appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

<< Welcome, Host "Xiao Yan"!

You have successfully integrated with the System and will now be able to access all the features available to those who use the System. The System will aid the growth of the Host and allow the Host achieve feats previously impossible.

Saying or thinking "Open Status" will display the Hosts information and progress.

Saying or thinking "Open Skills" will display the Hosts skills and techniques.

The Host should try their best to use the System to its fullest advantage.

Additionally, the System has already scanned the Host and knows everything about the Host. Due to the Host being crippled and the fact that this is completely unacceptable for the System's Host. The System will provide the Host with a starting Bonus.

Starting Bonus:

Repairing Meridians

Starter Pill

Martial Skill: Bone Shattering Fist

Extra Martial Spirit

Would the Host like to accept these rewards?>>

"Wait what? Holy crap a message actually appeared." Xiao Yan was surprised, he thought he was going crazy when he was hearing these sounds in his head. But now, a message actually showed up in front of him. "But it actually says it will repair my crippled meridians? I won't have to live in shame anymore!" Xiao Yan cried out, he was elated at this situation.

'What the heck, why not try it then! Accept rewards!'

Ding-

A golden light began to spread throughout Xiao Yan's body, coursing through his broken meridians, it slowly began to repair them. Snapping and cracking sounds echoed from within his body and each time Xiao Yan was suffering intense pain, but he clearly felt it. His meridians were actually slowly repairing, and were even become more sturdier than before.

As the light dissipated within Xiao Yan's body, he couldn't help but burst out into laughter at the current situation. "Haha, the heavens haven't given up on me, I, Xiao Yan, shall once more step onto the path of cultivation!" Puffing out his chest, Xiao Yan was pleasantly pleased. 'But there's still more rewards!'

ROOAAARRRR-

A round roar deafened Xiao Yan. Looking around, he saw a massive dragon which plunged directly into his body without resistance and disappeared just as quickly as it had shown up. "What the fuck was that?!" Xiao Yan shouted out, having just suffered a mini heart attack from that dragon.

'Meridians have been repaired. Host's Martial Spirit has been upgraded to the <Dragon King> Martial Spirit. This Martial Spirit is only fitting for the System's Host.'

Once again the system notification sounded out inside his head, informing him of his martial spirit upgrade and his repaired meridians. "Holy fuck, that is now my martial spirit? That completely outshines our Xiao Family's 'Flame Lion' martial spirit!" Xiao Yan was receiving good news after good news. Who would dare look down on him in the future?

"Oh, there is still two more rewards." As Xiao Yan spoke, a book appeared in his left hand and a small glass bottle appeared in his right hand. The Book was titled "Bone Shattering Fist" while within the small glass bottle a singular pill rested. Xiao Yan first put the book down and decide to check out the pill first, opening the glass bottle, he poured the pill out onto his hands. As he had done so, another semi-transparent screen appeared before him.

<<Starter Pill

A pill created by the System. Only usable by the Host.

Effects:

+5000 XP>>

"It gives xp? What does that mean?" Xiao Yan was confused, he had never heard of a pill like this. As if to answer his question, the System notification sounded out within his head once again.

Ding-

'Host can use XP to increase cultivation. Host can view their current XP and progress by saying or thinking <Open Status>'

"Open Status?" Xiao Yan questioned, only to have the semi-transparent screen before him change.

'Cultivation none? Sad but true. So I can use this XP to increase my cultivation?' As Xiao Yan finished deliberating, he chucked the pill that was sitting in his hand into his mouth. Swallowing it down a warm feeling quickly spread across his entire body.

'Congratulations to the Host for reaching <1st Qi Layer>'

'Congratulations to the Host for reaching <2nd Qi Layer>'

'Congratulations to the Host for reaching <3rd Qi Layer>'

'Congratulations to the Host for reaching <4th Qi Layer>'

'Congratulations to the Host for reaching <5th Qi Layer>'

"Wait what?! 5th Qi Layer?! I was only at the 4th Qi Layer before being crippled!" Xiao Yan was utterly shocked, never would he have imagined that this one pill would increase his cultivation all the way to the 5th Qi Layer. "Wait, let me double check. Open Status!"
