NFBE Chapter 1 Coming Out
Chapter 1 Coming Out
As the saying goes: When you're full and have nothing to do, being a jerk can easily lead to time travel.
Liu Xingxing is such a self-destructive person.
These days, there are countless time travelers, and Liu Xingxing happens to be one of them.
Moreover, it's about transmigrating into a book, and it's about transmigrating into a book that someone else has already transmigrated into.
The story should have gone like this: Lu Xiaohan, a beautiful and energetic white-collar worker in her thirties, bravely saved a child who was crossing the road on a sunny midday. As a result, she was immediately carried away by Che Chuangfei and forced to attend a banquet that afternoon.
Indeed, this time-travel trope has a strong flavor reminiscent of when similar novels first emerged. Liu Xingxing already criticized it when she first started reading this novel.
Then Lu Xiaohan found herself transmigrated into a cultivation novel she had read before, and became the most tragic female cancer who failed to frame the female lead but was instead attacked by the female lead's harem and eventually died.
Lu Xiaohan immediately objected. Knowing the original plot, she cautiously used her cheat ability and discreetly cleared her name little by little by taking advantage of various small moments.
She concealed her true strength and ruthlessly slapped those who looked down on her at crucial moments, causing those former female lead harem members who underestimated her to go from looking down on her to falling for her infinite charm. But Lu Xiaohan didn't even glance at them and walked away gracefully.
When Liu Xingxing read this passage, she promptly gave it several thumbs up and developed a better impression of the novel.
This kind of Mary Sue-esque, face-slapping, satisfying novel, although the plot is a bit weak, is so addictive! Liu Xingxing was initially bored, but the more she read, the more addicted she became. In the end, she stayed up all night to read it, and well, she died.
Then, Liu Xingxing transmigrated into the book.
The moment Liu Xingxing opened her eyes, she was stunned. How did she end up in a large cave?
Then a headache struck, and I knew something was wrong. This process felt strangely familiar.
Sure enough, the next second, countless unfamiliar memories flooded into her mind. Liu Xingxing couldn't process so many memories at once, and immediately rolled her eyes and fainted.
Five thousand one hundred and eighty-seven years of memories flashed through my pitch-black mind like scenes from a movie, but without the length of a film.
This is Liu Jun's memory. From her birth to the time she began to understand people and the world, her life was neither smooth sailing nor turbulent. Her story was not exciting or dramatic, much like a resident NPC.
However, her configuration was extremely extraordinary. She had a single fire spiritual root and extremely high cultivation talent. But when she became an apprentice, the elders of those sects seemed to be blind and not a single one of them saw her.
The people around her seemed to have their mouths sewn shut; not a single person spoke up to express their pity for her.
Liu Jun was also a stubborn person, and he never said a word or made a sound in his defense.
At this moment, Liu Xingxing really wanted to shout out loud: "How can no one fix such a huge bug? This is not scientific!"
How could a cultivation genius with a single spiritual root be overlooked? Isn't this the treatment a protagonist deserves? Why is it being given to an NPC?
However, memories don't have a rewind function, and Liu Xingxing did miss something. Back when Liu Jun was testing her spiritual roots, the testing stone malfunctioned, causing her single spiritual root to be tested as a mixed spiritual root. Naturally, the sect elders wouldn't pay attention to her.
At the time, Liu Jun, who knew nothing, also thought so. It wasn't until much later, when she met her master, that she learned about this. Liu Xingxing also learned about it when she saw Liu Jun's later memories.
Who would have thought that the Spirit Testing Stone, which had never failed in millions of years, would malfunction even once?
She was like a hidden gem, struggling to rise from an outer disciple to become a True Person, an Elder, and an Ancestor with an Immortal Title. Over five thousand years later, she has cultivated to the level of a Half-Step Immortal (a little stronger than the Tribulation Transcending stage) and is only one enlightenment away from ascension.
So many years have passed, and Liu Jun no longer remembers what she looked like when she first stepped into the immortal sect. Apart from some memorable events, big and small, her memory seems to have stopped, neither going back nor moving forward.
After all, she has lived for more than five thousand years, and she has everything she should have, and there is nothing she cannot obtain.
So he found a cave and began to comprehend the Great Dao.
As a result, this seclusion lasted for more than a thousand years, and he still doesn't know what the outside world looks like now.
As for why such a powerful figure would allow Liu Xingxing, an outsider, to possess his body, it's simply because Liu Jun had spent a thousand years trying to comprehend the Great Dao but hadn't grasped anything, and had almost developed a mental demon instead.
He had been fighting with himself for over a hundred years without any results. In a fit of anger, he pulled his inner demon out of his body and continued the battle. After several more decades of this, there was still no resolution. Liu Jun and his inner demon then perished together outside his body!
Liu Xingxing: ∑(°Д°)！！！
She didn't understand the world of the big shots.
Liu Xingxing didn't know what Liu Jun was thinking. Maybe Liu Jun was afraid that the inner demon would take over her body and wreak havoc on the world. After all, there shouldn't be anyone in the world who could beat her now.
After all, Liu Xingxing wasn't Liu Jun, so she really didn't know what Liu Xingxing was thinking at the time.
Her memory ended there, and Liu Xingxing slowly awoke.
Liu Xingxing was initially confused, but then it took her ten minutes to accept reality and begin to adapt to her new life.
The first thing to do in this new chapter of life: Find a mirror!
Those who cultivate immortality should all have techniques to preserve their youth, and they practice daily to eliminate impurities, so they shouldn't be too bad off, but their age is a factor.
Therefore, Liu Xingxing needed to see what this five-thousand-year-old witch looked like, since memories are all from a first-person perspective, and she could only see others.
But this large cave was too simple. Apart from the roughly square cave that had been carved out, a set of stone furniture, and two meditation cushions, there wasn't even a blade of grass to be seen.
"Right, aren't there storage bags or storage rings or something?"
But Liu Xingxing searched her entire body and found nothing. She was so desperate.
Liu Xingxing stared silently at the cave ceiling for a while. Having read many cultivation novels, she thought for a moment about what to do, then took a deep breath, focused her energy in her dantian, and concentrated her mind on one point.
Suddenly, something seemed to appear on her right hand. Liu Xingxing opened her eyes and saw a bronze round mirror with strange patterns engraved on the back.
"It actually worked!"
Smart as me.
This mirror is so clear that it's only one or two degrees less clear than a modern glass mirror. It's simply amazing. I hadn't had high hopes for it.
The bronze mirror clearly reflected a face of a man in his mid-twenties, with strikingly beautiful features, but his eyes and brows conveyed a detached indifference that seemed to see through everything, and even a coldness that emanated from his very bones.
She's the type of cool, aloof beauty, but those bright eyes give the icy beauty in the mirror a touch of everyday life.
Liu Xingxing nodded in satisfaction.
"As expected, this is the world of cultivation."
In the world of cultivation, the most deceptive thing is people's faces. Among a group of young people, who knows which one is a teenager and which one is a hundred years old? The earlier one establishes their foundation, the earlier one retains their youthful appearance.
There are also those whose spiritual power stops progressing. When the time comes, their spiritual energy dissipates, their youthful appearance will naturally fail, and they will naturally grow old until their soul returns to heaven and earth.
An old monster like Liu Jun, who has lived for thousands of years, would do whatever he wants if he didn't care about his appearance.
……
After more than two months of digestion, and relying on the muscle memory of this body, Liu Xingxing finally grasped the basics of what Liu Jun knew. As for some advanced techniques, she would slowly figure them out later.
From Liu Jun's fragmented memories, she learned that the Xuanshan Sect currently has more than a dozen Nascent Soul stage cultivators, five Mahayana stage cultivators, and one Tribulation Transcending stage cultivator besides herself. However, he is a generation younger than Liu Jun, and there are more than a hundred Nascent Soul stage cultivators. It won't be her turn to take the stage for a while. Moreover, the Xuanshan Sect is now the largest sect on the Yuanzhou Continent, without exception.
(Cultivation levels are set as follows: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, Mahayana, Tribulation Crossing, Willow Cultivation)
Below Xuanshan Sect are three major sects and eight major schools, and countless others that are not on the list.
As for Lu Xiaohan, Liu Jun had no memory of such a person.
How did Liu Xingxing find out that she had transmigrated into the book?
It was purely because of the name Liu Jun and her memory of the distribution of major forces in the cultivation world and the names of those very prestigious sects.
As a powerful figure, Liu Jun was often mentioned by people in his sect. However, he never appeared in the novel from beginning to end. He was a legendary figure who lived only in the stories of others.
Liu Xingxing, feeling lost and confused about the time and place outside the cave, and wondering how far the "female supporting character" had progressed, decided to go out.
With a swift cast of magic to cleanse herself and change her clothes, Liu Xingxing dispelled the outer magic array, easily brushed open the stone door, and walked out.
As a result, Liu Xingxing almost died after taking only two steps.
"Can anyone tell me why they chose to go into seclusion on a cliff?!"
Liu Xingxing calmed her frightened heart, peeked out at the bottomless cliff shrouded in mist below, and then looked up at the equally distant cliff top above.
Forgive her, a newcomer to the world of cultivation, for her instinctive reaction was not to realize that she had spiritual power, and she was almost scared to leave this beautiful world.
After calming down, he made a hand seal and summoned an "ordinary" flying sword, then flew directly to the main hall of the Xuanshan Sect following his memory.
As she flew along, her view gradually opened up, and the unprecedented scenery slowed her sword-riding speed considerably. The unique landscape was breathtaking.
