I, Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, Am Admired By Every Races

The new chapter is going to be posted on the public domain twice a week (Tuesday and Saturday), and thrice a week in my Patreon:

==============================================

Eastern Region

Profound Sun Sect, Outer Sect.

In a small hut.

A tall, handsome young man sat by the window, holding a bronze mirror and examining his own reflection.

After a moment.

"Sigh."

A soft sigh echoed.

Li Xun slowly put down the bronze mirror, his face showing a hint of helplessness.

As expected.

He must have transmigrated.

Just a moment ago, he had integrated the memories in his mind.

He learned that he was currently in a large sect called Profound Sun Sect, and his current identity was that of an outer disciple of this sect.

"A cultivation world, huh."

Li Xun murmured to himself.

It is well known that the fantasy world is extremely dangerous.

The strong can move mountains and fill seas, pluck stars and moons, while the weak struggle to survive, their lives as insignificant as grass. 

A mere aftershock from a battle could wipe out countless ordinary people.

"Fortunately, this body is not a waste."

"Even more fortunately, the original owner's name is the same as mine, at least I don't need to change my name."

Li Xun felt slightly relieved in his heart.

This, no doubt, is also a kind of fate.

From the memories in his mind, he learned that the original owner had a pretty good aptitude, perhaps even considered excellent. 

He had joined Profound Sun Sect only two years ago and had already reached the tenth level of Body Refinement.

He was just one step away from entering the Qi Condensation stage.

This aptitude, let alone in Profound Sun Sect, would be considered a small genius even in some other cultivation organization.

Compared to some other transmigrators who start as wastes, Li Xun felt he was relatively lucky. 

At least he didn't need to worry about failing the inner sect assessment three years later.

Nor did he need to worry about being sent down the mountain.

After joining the sect, if an outer disciple of Profound Sun Sect fails to break through to the Qi Condensation stage within five years, they will be sent down the mountain to manage the sect's mundane industries.

Though not expelled from the sect, it is almost the same.

After all, once you leave the sect, returning is nearly impossible.

There are still three years left until the five-year deadline. Li Xun estimated that he should be able to break through within three years, right?

Not to mention...

He still has a pill in his hand!

Li Xun put the bronze mirror on the table and picked up a white jade box beside him. He gently opened the lid, and a fragrant scent immediately filled the air.

Spirit Yuan Pill!

That's the name of the pill.

Its main function is to help break through to the Qi Condensation stage. 

Generally, it can increase the success rate by thirty percent for most people.

For someone with Li Xun's high talent, it can increase the success rate by fifty to seventy percent. 

Coupled with Li Xun's own foundation.

This almost guarantees a breakthrough.

"Excellent aptitude, excellent background, this start..."

A smile flashed in Li Xun's eyes, and he said four more words.

"Could be considered perfect!"

This Spirit Yuan Pill was sent by his family, hoping he could break through to the Qi Condensation stage faster and enter the inner sect.

After all, the faster one cultivates and becomes an inner disciple, the higher the talent and potential. 

Once in the inner sect, one could attract the attention of some elders.

And once noticed by elders, would there be a shortage of sect resources?

Once he gains some influence in the Profound Sun Sect, his family could also benefit greatly.

"Once I get familiar with the cultivation process, I can probably break through in a few days."

Li Xun thought to himself.

As soon as this thought fell.

Ding!

A crisp sound.

It echoed in his mind.

[The Strongest Investment System, binding...]

[The Strongest Investment System bound successfully!]

[Welcome, Master.]

"Hmm?"

Hearing the voice in his mind, Li Xun's pupils shrank, and he stood up suddenly, his face full of disbelief.

After a long time.

He calmed down and muttered, "I have a system?"

According to his past life's experience.

Usually, transmigrators who start as wastes would awaken a system early on. But he didn't transmigrate into a waste, did he?

How come he has a system too?

This doesn't follow the usual script!

However... he liked this script.

Which transmigrator wouldn't want a system?

"System, introduce your functions."

Li Xun regained his composure, slowly sat back in his chair, and asked in his mind.

[Respectable Master, this system has only one function: investment. Every time you invest in someone, you will receive corresponding returns.]

[Investment levels are White, Blue, Purple, Gold, and Red. The higher the level, the greater the rewards.]

[PS: The system will notify you when you encounter an investable person.]

[PS: The rewards you can get are not limited to the system; there might be unexpected surprises.]

"Investment?"

Li Xun was stunned.

This was somewhat new to him.

The system mentioned that, besides system rewards, there might be unexpected surprises. 

This puzzled him. 

What kind of surprises?

But since he hadn't invested yet, he couldn't figure it out.

"It seems I need to find someone to test it on."

Li Xun thought.

"By the way, system..."

Li Xun seemed to think of something and was about to ask.

But before he could speak, there was a knock on the door.

"Senior Brother Li Xun, are you there? Junior Brother Lu Changhe is visiting."
