3: who says a fish can’t cultivate?

[congratulations host for gaining....

1: Heavenly Dragon Nine-Transformations (Alters bloodline)

2: [Grade 1 skill: Devil-Yin Claw]

Another holographic screen appeared, Xiao Chen could only grow more excited as he read it slowly.

A cultivation technique + a skill he could use to kill, absurd!!

—

"Inventory" he thought, as the screen disappeared and was replaced by another.

Xiao Chen looked at the 2 new items inside his inventory.

[Heavenly Dragon Nine-Transformations] cultivation technique, and the [Devil-Yin Claw] a grade one martial technique

Xiao Chen took out the Heavenly dragon Nine-transformations book out, which a simple tap the book turned into a silvery light as it flashed into his small body.

Boom!!

A massive amount of information Pertaining to the cultivation technique was released into his mind.

After slowly growing through the technique, Xiao Chen couldn't hide his happiness.

Not only was this a heaven-defying cultivation technique, it could alter his bloodline, meaning he definitely wouldn't be a koi fish forever.

He could cross the dragon gate and marry 30,000 immortal goddesses and reach the peak of a cultivators life.

It was truly outstanding.

Xiao Chen slowly revolved the cultivation technique, the technique relied on the celestial bodies of the heavens to cultivate.

As the ethereal astral Qi fell onto Xiao Chen, his body was glowing brilliantly, it created a bizarre scene.

[Breakthrough!!]

[Congratulations to the host for reaching 1st stage body-refining realm]

[Status]

[Name]: Xiao Chen

[Cultivation]: 1st Body-Refining Realm

[Bloodline]: Koi Fish

[Age]: 16/40

[Art]: Heavenly Dragon Nine-Transformations

[Skills]: nil..

"That fast?" Xiao Chen said in shock, even though he knew it definitely wouldn't be this easy to break-through in the future.

He could clearly feel his body getting stronger, his koi fish body was already relatively weak, but Xiao Chen felt like he was even stronger than back on earth.

That's right, this damn fish was as strong as a human now.

He was even twice the size he was before, now atleast 40-50 cm long, which was crazy.

"Muahahah"

Xiao Chen flapped his little fins around excitedly, he didn't dare to stay here too long, it was akin to courting death with the fierce sea-creatures below, no one was this bold.

He swam off Into a dent in the dirt at the side of the lake which Could fit him.

—

"Hmm, should I cultivate more or look at the skill that I gained" he thought, the sun was also slowly setting, it created a beautiful scene in the lake.

"It's better to get something that I can protect myself with" he thought as he floated in the water.

"Inventory"

The inventory screen immediately appeared in front of him, showing only one slot occupied.

Xiao Chen immediately took out the [Devil-Yin Claw] it was also in the form of a book.

[would you like to learn this skill?]

[yes/no]

Another system prompt appeared, Xiao Chen immediately chose the "yes" option.

And once again.... his mind was blasted apart with information, except this time it was easier to deal with, which surprised him.

'Maybe it's because my cultivation level raised' this was the only explanation Xiao Chen came up with.

"This System is way too bizarre" Xiao Chen thought, not only could he upgrade this skill to grade 2 and so on.

The moment he learned it, the skill was imprinted in his mind, as if he had been cultivating it for many years.

"Heheh, I'm getting too cocky, I need to find a big dragon boss so he can poke me a bit" Xiao Chen thought, he was actually happy for once, although the wasn't a human, in this cultivation world even a insect could gain a human body with a high-enough cultivation realm.

"This place is a bit too small" he smiled mischievously, a cold bone-chilling Qi gathered from the surroundings and onto his small fins, a illusionary claw appearing.

Since Xiao Chen was only I the body-refining realm, he could only use Qi to cultivate and temper his body to further his cultivation, and use martial skills with the help of the surrounding Qi.

He had no way of storing the Qi until he reached the next realm, which was the realm of true cultivators.

Boom!!

The area surrounding Xiao Chen exploded, the dirt and the many rocks turned into dust as a small cave appeared, he now felt comfortable.

"I can't stay here hiding all day, I'll definitely have to taste battle tomorrow" Xiao Chen said as he rested beside inside the small cave, the dirty water was slowly diluting itself from the dirt.

He couldn't stay inside here for the rest of his life after-all, that would be no different then him asking to die again and live a boring life.

No... in this life, he was planning to go all out, while being cautious of course.

With great power comes great responsibility.

"Even so, the sea-creatures here aren't too strong, there are only a certain few" xiao Chen scouted through his memories, pictures of many sea-creatures appearing, some were easily to bully and kill.

While others were vicious and bloodthirsty, their cultivation wasn't a joke either.

Beasts in the cultivation world had way more lifespan than humans, at the same time it was harder for them to cultivate, it wasn't surprising for an old turtle to cultivate for tens of thousands of years before even reaching the realm of heavenly immortal.

"Luckily I have the system, cuz who the f*ck wants to stay still for 1 million years to go up by one stage" Xiao Chen 'smiled' strangely as he kept his eyes on the small cave entrance.

"Better blow this up slightly" he thought, using his fins to blow the dirt and rocks to the cave entrance.

With that, Xiao Chen immediately went back to his little sleeping spot and tried to fall asleep, his body was slightly fatigued somehow.

'Maybe all that information exploding in my head'

"Wait- instead of sleeping, why don't I just cultivate?" Xiao Chen raised his eyes and blinked, looking at himself as if he was a genius.

"Haha, who says a fish can't cultivate?"
