Chapter 1

When you can't see nothing and feel nothing, yet you still can think normally, what would your thoughts be?

Well, I can't really tell you since I never had that situation. But, human are born with superior intelligence and my guess would be that you are either a newborn or a dead man. To be sure which one, only you can tell which one you are.

Liu Tu Yun happen to be dead man in this situation. How he die, I have no idea. My World notice a fleeting soul passing by and take the initiate to invite that soul into the World.

This situation is very normal, really. Every once in a while, some random being would be absorb into my World and be part of it. Usually, there would be no major influence that these being can cause.

Liu Tu Yun was a philosopher in his previous life. His ideal greatly match with my World, so when my World absorb his soul, it also give him major authority to influence my World. Of course, all of this have my approval.

When Liu Tu Yun open his eyes, he can only see darkness. So, he try to open his eyes again, the result is same.

Liu Tu Yun is not sure if he open his eyes or not, because he cannot feel anything. It is just a normal response one would take to see if anything around is true or not.

Now, Liu Tu Yun is sure that he cannot feel anything, but he can still keep his thoughts going. As a philosopher, thoughts are his greatest assurance.

"So the question is, what happens to me?" Liu Tu Yun think.

"Am I on my way to death now? After all, I'm almost 70 years old."

"I can only wait and see."

Xiang Dao is a village near Xiang Mountain.

At this time, there is a baby cry signifies a newborn coming.

The baby boy is Liu Tu Yun. It is not that Liu Tu Yun want to cry but he just not fully have this under control.

The midwife, holding the baby, look at the woman who had just give birth with sympathy. She had unfortunately died during the progress.

Looking at the baby, with no mother and father, she could only take on the responsibilities helplessly.

"I will try my best to help you, baby boy. Your mother had told me that your name is Liu Tu Yun and it shall be your name as well."

After one year.

Liu Tu Yun can somewhat control this body.

"It's weird. I'm not dead, and I don't think can be consider a newborn either. Soul crossing world in which many book I have read about seem be the only explanation."

"It is really fascinating how one can retain one memories and travel to other world. I guess my next topic would definitely be on this subject."

"This World architectures look simple in the village I'm at. And I somehow got a Search System attach to me."

"Yesterday, I heard the sound of it in my head. I tried it out and it seem the only function the system have is to look up information."

"Some information seem to lock and need me to pay for it, payment can be anything equivalent of that information. Even my life can be use for the payment."

"Anyway, the midwife send me to the orphanage today. The villagers are poor in this region ,so be able to take care of me for one year, I'm grateful for that one year. I was a poor man in the previous life too, so I'm used to it."

"In this life, I only want to enjoy myself, letting out of every obsession I may had."

Year 15

To make it easier to know the years, I will just write Liu Tu Yun age as the year - In case you wondering what I am, I'm the master of the World on a mission to invade your mind. Just embrace me!

Liu Tu Yun is in the small hut he build at the age 12.

He is currently study the martial art theory he had just brought from the merchant passing by the village.

As early as age 5, he come into contract with this world exotic cultivation. People cultivate from Rank 1 mortal to Rank 9 mortal. At the peak of Rank 9 mortal, people can cultivate into the immortal.

In legend, there is only one immortal from the beginning of time to now. In each era, there is one leading rank 9 mortal, with a total of 9 people total who had cultivate to this rank, each with a honored title the world known them by.

"In 10 years of cultivation, I'm not even a Rank 1 mortal. How do these people even cultivate into Rank 9 mortal. I guess it can only talent."

"I used the Search System and the fastest way to cultivate is apparent having the world blessing. You either born with it, or helping the world advance when you are Rank 8 and above, which is ridiculous hard to cultivate to."

"It cost me 20 years of life just to know this information. But since I technically died, I really not care about my remaining life much, and just enjoy the moment."

"Also, I will also gain life when I cultivate up each rank, so it was really nothing to me."

"15 years in this world, I also gradually stop many habits I had when I was a philosopher in my previous life."

"If only I have a PC to play games and pass time right now. Oh, how life change."

I'm a character in this novel as well if you did not know.
