: The Potion System and the Spirit Refining System

In a small apartment in an ordinary residential area in Yan'an District,

Having donned the nano-integrated suit, with a bionic bird drone perched on her shoulder, Li Xijun was ready.

"The stock market is dangerous. Making a hasty investment is like giving money away. It's better to not make any money than to lose money. Only place a bet when you're certain of a sure opportunity!"

"The same!"

"Now that I have such great opportunities, I must not be impatient, greedy, or reckless."

"It's better to do nothing than to act rashly. Wait until a definite opportunity arises before taking action!"

Li Xijun, who was constantly setting rules for herself, made up her mind.

After crossing, find a safe and hidden spot to lie low until you have scouted the area with a drone before making any further plans.

"call----!"

After taking a deep breath, he slowly focused his mind on the already lit-up [Convergence of the Heavens (100%)].

next moment,

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the golden mark, residing at an infinite height and illuminating all the heavens and worlds, radiated a profound and illusory yet real brilliance, gently enveloping him and seemingly transporting him through a sea of ​​worlds as if they were dreamlike bubbles.

Ultimately, this profound, flickering light fell into a strange world.

Li Xijun's consciousness, contained within the Great Luo Mark, remained clear, allowing him to clearly see the world as it was.

Above was a curtain that, like an overturned oil painting, was constantly distorted and deformed, exuding decadence and filth.

Below lies a foundation filled with a void and chaos, slumbering like a dizzying ocean formed from countless nuclear fuels.

In the center of this world, there appears to be a starry universe similar to Li Xijun's previous life, adorned with countless galaxies, but all the vitality of the world is gathered on a small planet where the Milky Way is located.

As Li Xijun descended towards the planet of this world along with this beam of light,

They also encountered one after another bizarre and grotesque creature that exuded pollution and madness, somewhat similar to powerful beings in the mythological world, yet also exceptionally dizzying and nauseating.

A crescent-sized entity, composed of countless chunks of flesh and tentacles, constantly writhing and polluting everything; a sphere formed from countless overlapping eyes; wriggling, transparent worms; a door radiating pollution and madness...

The sight of these beings made Li Xijun's heart pound with fear. If it weren't for the protection of the Great Luo Mark, he would have gone insane the moment he saw them, his body covered in fleshy balls of tentacles.

Fortunately, all of that happened in an instant.

Furthermore, these ancient and powerful beings seemed completely unaware of Li Xijun and the Great Luo Mark, watching helplessly as he passed through their blockade and entered Earth.

When Li Xijun came to his senses, he had already landed in a port city on the eastern side of the world's two largest continents.

It was at this very moment that

Li Xijun suddenly felt as if something was calling to her.

Especially as the radiance of the Great Luo Mark gradually descended upon the city, this intense feeling instantly locked onto his target.

It was a battlefield ruin that had just been bombarded by artillery shells, attacked by magic, and marked with fist marks and knife marks.

Western steel warships bearing tulip flags were fleeing in plumes of black smoke, while the two groups of powerful figures with square faces, who had been confronting each other in the sky, also retreated and dispersed.

All that remained were corpses scattered across the battlefield ruins, survivors buried alive, with short legs and bodies pierced through.

Amidst the hellish wails, a boy dressed as a newsboy, who looked to be about 13 or 4 years old, was also pierced through the heart by a flying steel bar, and entered the countdown to death.

Just as his consciousness was fading and he was gradually walking into the darkness of death... his eyes, which had been vacant and unfocused between life and death, became incredibly bright, revealing a profound understanding.

"So it was me..."

He murmured softly, then raised his face to look at the sky, revealing a face that Li Xijun found strangely familiar.

That was exactly what he looked like when he was a child!

next moment,

Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck from a clear sky, the thunder exploded, and it seemed as if the Milky Way was being created and destroyed, illuminating a patch of heaven and earth.

The "he" who should have died transformed into a streak of light and flew into the sky, landing on Li Xijun within that radiance, and finally disappearing into the mark in his sea of ​​consciousness.

The golden Luo mark trembled, as if some kind of change had occurred.

Wearing a nano-protective suit, Li Xijun landed firmly on the ground of the ruins.

He felt his spirit become stronger, and at the same time, his memories from just now played back before his eyes like flowing water.

"This place is not suitable for lingering."

Li Xijun didn't have time to check his memory and mental level. As soon as he landed, he used the movement technique from the "Thirty-Six Forms of True Martial Arts" to instantly dart 12 meters away. In just a few flashes, he arrived at a secluded corner of the city.

As the bionic bird drone took off and connected to the nanosuit, the city's appearance appeared on Li Xijun's face mask and goggles.

The main street of the city was bustling with people. There were many dressed in suits, coarse cloth, cheongsams, and even black cloaks and Taoist robes. People were used to it.

Originally, there was a railway track in the middle of the bluestone road. As the train passed by with a "whoosh" sound of steam, the "GG" lettering on the train body that read "People from Tianjin only smoke cigarettes from Kinmen" was extremely similar to the traditional Chinese characters from the previous life.

However, the most distinctive feature is that there is a martial arts school on almost every street in the city, making them stand like a forest.

After confirming the safety and environment of the entire city,

Li Xijun relaxed slightly, looking at and memorizing the map data of the city's roads, landmarks, etc., while flipping through the memories of "him" in this world.

Fortunately, because the "he" in this world is a newspaper boy.

Having learned to read and write, Li Xijun had accumulated a great deal of intelligence during his many years of delivering newspapers, which gave him a clear understanding of the world.

Thirty-eight years ago.

The fog that had separated the two continents in the central sea suddenly dissipated, making the two continents aware of each other's existence.

Almost inevitably, a world war broke out between the two continents.

However, this was an extraordinary world, even though the West had already begun the steam age at that time.

However, the real battleground belongs to the extraordinary individuals on both sides.

The Western system of cultivation is called "Potions," which involves consuming potions to gain extraordinary characteristics and abilities, ranging from Sequence 9 to Sequence 1.

The Eastern side is more diverse, but it is generally divided into two parts: martial arts, which focuses on developing the potential of the human body, and the path of cultivating the soul and improving spiritual power.

"etc!"

"Enhance mental strength?"

"Isn't this kind of thing only improveable by comprehending external techniques at the third realm of artistic conception?!"
