Chapter 1 - Intro

" So, this is the pinnacle huh? I must find a way to break through and find a higher plane. What do you think? "

" Sounds good, but the heavenly dao might not allow us to find a bigger world than this one"

" Then, so be it. If I have to fight the heavenly dao, I shall destroy him but first, we have to get out of here and we must not leave any traces behind or those who are following us will keep making trouble. Anyway, I hope you prosper and be the one who will make the whole universe progress, ????? "

A mysterious couple flew off, making sure to erase their trace before going.

Somewhere in a far corner of a vast universe, in one of the solar systems of the universe, a planet that can hold life is seen orbiting a massive star the same size as the sun of the Milky Way galaxy.

The name of the planet is Thrae, a parallel planet of Earth. In one of the countries of Thrae, a lone man could be seen walking down a pavement with an apathetic face. But that in itself is a disguise to lower his presence among the humans on this planet. 

This man is known as Alucard, the descendant of Dracula Vlad Tepes. a great leader in Transylvania that produces great soldiers, politicians, businessmen, and more. The reason for its greatness is the vision that lets them see a line of successes, which they use to become the greatest in their chosen professions.

As for Alucard, his vision is somewhat different, or something that's been combined from all over the generations of the Vlad Tepes bloodline. He can see the lines of death, time, space, life, luck, and more. This is the reason he became apathetic towards the whole world: from a young age, he has seen death lines from all over the world and knows when their time comes. He can also see the human structure, from the skin, blood, veins, bones, and movements of the muscles up to the beating heart.

Through his vision of the world, he matured faster than all of the humans. He also experienced mental breakdowns, but because of his vision, he also developed a great will to withstand the pressure of the things he saw, thus creating a nigh-immovable and indomitable will that far surpasses all of his ancestors.

Despite such will, he knows when he will die, and he knows that he can't stop such destiny. That's when he became apathetic, as he couldn't see any lines where he could survive and live past the age of 40. 

But the line of his death is a blinding golden light with a tint of black-red that can compare to or be more intense than the sun's brightness, and to his knowledge, it's the first time he sees a bright golden light that represents the highest luck.

"Looks like this will be my last day. Despite having the greatest vision of all Vlad Tepes members, I can't live past the age of 40, and today is the day I'll die, but I am tired. I am tired of looking at the declining lives of this world. I am tired of hearing the agony, regrets, greed, and all these negative emotions transmitted toward me. It makes me sick that these humans always live in regret until their last breath.

Why can't they accept it and move on with their lives? Why do they always keep it to themselves and voice it out when they are close to dying? Are they being programmed to be like that? "Are we all programmed to regret it when we are close to death?" 

Alucard questioned, asking about why they have to regret when they are in their last breath. And so, Alucard moved with his head low, while his hood covered his head. He walked down the road and glanced sideways to see a Mustang running off while beeping its horn, while a man was shouting at the top of his lungs to move out.

Alucard just looked at the moving Mustang and accepted his faith by raising his arms wide before the car bumped into his body, and he flew off the ground while his bones broke into multiple pieces, his organs were severely damaged beyond recognition, and blood was all over his face. But despite all the damage done to his body, Alucard's face hasn't changed one bit and remained apathetic.

"What a fragile body, *cough* *blood running from his nose and mouth* goodbye world, goodbye father. " And with that, the legend of Alucard Vlad Tepes began. The one and only true legend that revolutionized the whole world to its futuristic era or the era of scientific abilities with his vision Despite such an era, he still died a shameful death, being run off by a car.

In a realm called the Earthly Martial World, a place where immortals and mortals alike live together, there are 5 continents: north, west, south, east, and the central plane. At the far southeast corner, Kingdom Peng, there is a village 10,000 miles away from such a kingdom. A boy woke up abruptly as if he had a bad dream; he was drenched in sweat as memories flooded in.

"Hmm, so this was the indication of such a bright golden line. I've been reincarnated, and my vision ability seems to be changing into something compatible with this world—or, should I say, the universe. From what I know, this world is known as the Earthly Martial Realm, and there are people known as immortals that can destroy kingdoms with a wave of their hands and magic arts that can summon elemental powers such as fire and ice. But I know the other term for them: cultivators. "It looks like mortals aren't exposed to such secrets that they can cultivate," Alucard said, checking his body.

His body is somewhat plump, and his age is around 15 years old. Despite being a little fat, it doesn't hinder his movements, and he can move nimbly, which is somewhat difficult in the modern world, but since this is an eastern-fantasy type of world, it doesn't matter.

"I must first check my vision and see the changes; while at it, I must also gather information enough for me to live and integrate myself." Weird, why am I doing all this myself when I am supposed to be tired of living? Is this what they mean by being influenced by a mysterious power when reincarnated? "Well, I must investigate it later and benefit from it first," Alucard said before checking his vision, and the first thing he notices is that the lines are gone, and instead, the changes are that he can see more in-depth his body and even see the spirit soul, energy, or qi, and the elements such as space, time, and chaos. 

Also, he notices particles—golden particles—moving around somewhere north, where the village was located. Since he was on the outskirts of the village, he decided against following such golden lights because he knows that he must be cautious since it was a new world and he doesn't know if there was any danger if he follows such an obvious trap.

From what he read in multiple Eastern fantasy novels, there is something called a "heavenly dao" that controls everything; he doesn't know if that's what they called the "master of the realm." So, if he follows such a thing, he might die because it's someone's destiny to acquire it and be punished to death through heavenly punishment.

"I must not be greedy, or else I will follow in the footsteps of those idiotic protagonists who believe too much in their luck," Alucard cautiously said before looking away from the golden particles and continuing to investigate his newly acquired ability.

The first was that he can see the acupoints on his body and even know the exact number, which is quite a lot. There are around 3.142 million acupoints, which is a lot. Second, he notices that the qi cannot enter his body because of the blocked acupoints, which is understandable. From what he got from his previous memories, mortals can't break the shackles of being mortal if there isn't anyone who helps him control and break through his acupoints, which only immortals knew.

Third, the qi seems to be lively when around him, and he had an idea of how and why. He doesn't reek of being tainted and is more like a baby who's just been born, or, a better way to say it, a clean slate. And lastly, his soul spirit, or spirit soul, is large, like massively large, enough to encompass the entire Thrae and beyond. Despite being large, he notices that it slowly compresses over time, but his control over qi becomes better as the soul-spirit compresses. The reason?  He doesn't know, but he lets it be and will investigate it later.

"Should I go to the village or roam around and try to find a treasure?"

"I'll just go to the village; I won't trust my luck to find treasure in such an unknown place."

With a resolute step, Alucard jogged towards the village, and from what he knows, the village had a population of around 10 million, which is kind of big enough to be called a town, but with how massive the realm is, it can only be called a village, and to promote it from village to town, you need to have 10% of the population, which might be small, but it is kind of hard if the cultivators aren't talented enough.

From what he knows of the stages of cultivation, the first is the meridian awakening stage, which is through the help of an immortal to breakthrough and guide the qi towards the meridian; the second is the qi gathering stage, which consists of 9 layers; and the third stage is called the Body Tempering Realm, which consists of three layers: muscle tempering, bone tempering, and blood tempering; but with the insight of Alucard, he knows that this stage is quite lacking and that it should also include meridian tempering, acupuncture, organs, dantian and brain tempering to make sure that he won't get a brain trauma or any brain damage, and thus increasing the total to 8 layers. But first, he must check a cultivator's scroll to have a reference and create his cultivator art.

Hours later, he finally arrived at the village called Hua Village. The thing he first notices is that the village is poor and rich at the same time; on the outer ring are the poor, while in the inner ring are the rich, or the cultivators. As he walks towards the gate, a guard stops him and asks the purpose of his visit.

Hey kid, stop where you are! "What's your purpose in visiting the village?" The guard said

"Looking for work," Alucard stated, with his usual apathetic face.

"I see."

"Do you have an identification card?" He asked.

"None; I live in the woods, and this is my first time walking out of the forest," Alucard said.

" Forest?   I see...   That's why.   Come, and I will get you a temporary ID card. While at it, I will tell you the basic rules of the village: this is the outer ring where the poor lives, and the inner ring, where you can see a massive wall made of stones, is where the rich and immortals live."

"So, rule #1: don't ever provoke those who are in the inner ring; rule #2: don't ever step foot inside the inner ring if you haven't gained a foothold in this village; and rule #3: follow those two rules and you will live another day."

The guard said while Alucard nodded, listening intently. While looking around the surrounding area and making sure to remember every single detail if he ever needed to escape,

Moments later, they arrived at their destination, and the guard gave Alucard a temporary ID card. Of course, Alucard has to fill out necessary information such as his name and age. Since he is in a new world and his name is a foreign one, he must make up a new one, Li Duyi.

With that being finished, Alucard, now known as Li Duyi, finally began his first journey in this unknown world.
