The best Superpower

I woke up to muffled shouts and sobs as I felt myself being lifted into the air with Qi.

During the time I was unconscious, I was able to integrate with the memories in my mind, allowing me to understand my current situation.

I was one of the most talented disciples of the Volcanic Flame sect and the son of the Sect head. When I was ten years old, my sister was born with a talent that surpassed even me.

In this generic xianxia world, the cultivation levels were divided into 14 levels.

Body refinement, Qi refinement, Qi Ascension, Dantian Formation, Qi core formation, Qi core perfection, Dao formation, Domain formation, Domain master, Concept actualization, Concept Internalisation, Ascension, Demi-god, Qi god.

It normally took an average person 30 years to reach the peak of Body refinement and achieve Qi refinement while it took at least 20 years for a talented person to do the same.

I reached Qi refinement when I was 10, breaking all previous records.

My sister broke my record by reaching that level at 5 years of age.

Naturally, our father received many praises and compliments for having such talented children. Especially when the third prince of the empire was a waste that failed to go past the first level of Body refinement.

When I was 20, I broke through to Qi ascension while my sister was close to breaking through to the same level as well.

It was during this time that the third prince suddenly transformed and started to advance very quickly.

Looking at these monsters of cultivation, our father arranged for a marriage between the third prince and my sister.

It is fair to say that my previous self lived a very uneventful life until the announcement was made about sending an expedition to the eastern frontier to investigate the forbidden forest.

The rest is history.

The bastard coveted the ring that Xiuying found in the ruins so he had us separate from the main group and led us into abandoned ruins, he then destroyed my cultivation with a vicious attack before directly killing me with his Divine Thunder technique while stabbing Xiuying in the back,

Right now, no one aside from us siblings knew the truth about what happened and given the fact that most of the people that came with us were his people, there is no way to prove our claim.

As these thoughts kept swirling in my mind, I felt a familiar Qi enter my body in an attempt to heal me.

So, our father somehow managed to find us before we died from our injuries?

I felt his Qi reach the Divine thunder energy in my body, trying to clear it out with his Dao formation realm cultivation.

But how can the ancestral technique used by the royal family be so simple?

The Thunder element retaliated his fire Qi by violently lashing out at my body as I experience a pain that I cannot describe.

But even during such pain, my mind remained surprisingly calm.

As I scoured my mind for some way to save myself, I decided to risk it and use my newly acquired knowledge on elemental bending from Avatar.

Without even needing to move my body, I tried to use a variant of fire bending, Lightning bending.

Surprisingly, it worked.

With a thought, I felt the thunder respond to my Chi and leave my body through my hands and into the ground.

Looks like my memories include the Chi manipulation ability as well. I will need to take some time to go through all the knowledge I gained about the Avatar bending techniques.

Slowly I opened my eyes and came face to face with my father, Huoshan Liang.

"Yang'er"

The relief in his voice was very much clear to anyone that heard him as all the elders and the servants in the room started to relax a little bit.

Looking around, I saw that I was now back in my room at the Volcanic Dragon sect.

...Exactly how long was I asleep? And how did they manage to transport me thousands of kilometers to a different continent without waking me up even once?

"How is Xiuying?"

"She is fine. We managed to find you two just in time to save your lives. When your life seal broke I really thought I lost you. Thankfully, there was still enough of your life left for us to use one of our three colored herbs to save you. Although.."

As his voice trailed off all the elders in the room diverted their gaze as he simply glared at the floor.

It only took me a minute to realize that they were contemplating how to break the news that I lost all my cultivation.

I gave a wry grin as I spoke to him.

"Don't worry Father, even though I have lost my cultivation, I can just start cultivating again"

After he went out of the room to see Xiuying, the elders were very short with their words as just left, not even showing a hint of the previous fawning that they used to do when this body was still in the Qi ascension realm.

But I couldn't be any more glad that they no longer had any more expectations of me.

Seriously, I dodged a bullet there. There is no way I am going to be cannon fodder for some egoistic brat. If that means being seen as a waste by all the powerful guys in the sect, so be it.

After all, I had one of the most coveted superpowers in my old world.

Money.

With that, I can easily live a happy life.

But that did not mean I was not going to cultivate anymore. After all, the Avatar in me will not allow me to do so. Instead, I will have to find a way to combine the Cultivation techniques of this world with the knowledge I had about Chi from the world of Avatar and get stronger that way.

With a new goal in mind, I got up from bed.

It is time to use the money to get what I want and live the rich life for once.
