Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

"What the hell is happening? What is going on right now? I have goddamn abs right now?!!! Is this even my body? It looks so much different than before. This restructuring seems to work. I feel so powerful right now!" I shouted with excitement.

I felt powerful. I looked around. There was no place for a reflection, so I couldn't see myself properly. But I knew the moment I glanced down. I had muscles like someone who was going to the gym for a year. If I went out right now, then I would be the one to get those girls.

I thought about it even more. Just one circulation of the art was enough to make me so much more powerful than before? This system was not lying to me. The cultivation world seemed much more mystical and extraordinary than I had expected.

My body was filled with energy. I lined up my arms to do it once more. But my stomach seemed to have a disagreement with my body. It rumbled with hunger. I should have expected that. After hibernating for so long, a lot of fat must have been consumed. I took one of the food pills and swallowed it whole. I then looked at the wall with the heaven devouring art. I followed the moves once more.

This was going to be my second cycle. It was more tolerable than the first. Every move of the first cycle gave me a gut wrenching pain. Now, it was more like someone was stabbing me with a needle. It was still paining, but it was more toned down. I could take this pain.

After a while, my upper body glistened with sweat. A pop up came from the system.

Congratulations. Second cycle of Heaven Devouring has been completed. User has leveled up. Five stat points have been awarded. One skill point has been awarded.

"A skill point? What can I use that for? Stat points are obvious enough. I just use them to raise my stats. But the skill point doesn't make sense. System Homepage." I called out. Immediately, the blue screen came up in front of me.

Message - You aren't doing bad. A few more months and you might make something decent of yourself.

My eyebrows twitched.

"I am not doing bad? What the hell. I did not ask you to start judging me. Just tell me what the skill points are." I shouted with anger.

"User need not be so angry. It is just an honesty assessment of the User's current strength and position. As for skill points, they cannot be used right now. After User has reached level 5, the store shall open, and User will be allowed to buy certain @#$%^&* Information is above User's authority. Please continue to increase level to learn more." the system suddenly stopped talking. It was weird. Whatever came out, it looked like someone was stopping me from understanding what the system was saying.

But I was not an idiot. I could understand a little. The system has a shop of sorts, and I could buy something from the shop using the skill points. I read a few novels like this, but this was the first time that I applied the same principles.

Now, all that I had to do was to increase my level. I could not leave this cave though. Some bastard closed it and I could not leave. The only way that I could increase my level was clearly to master the Heaven Devouring Art. Even after doing it once, the skill level was still Basic. It was clear that I had a very long way to go. I sighed as I started my third rep.

I had nothing else to do. There was no computer or anything else here, unfortunately. So, doing something was better than just sitting there and doing nothing at all.

I completed the rep. And then, I did one more. And another. The day passed by. The only way that I knew that a day had passed by was that there was a convenient clock at the edge of the system homepage.

I sat down and popped a pill into my mouth. I might have done a full ten cycles of the art. I got a few notifications from the system, but I put them aside. I wanted them to accumulate, so that I could see what I truly accomplished in the one day that I constantly practiced the art.

Notifications(5)

User has increased strength stat by 3

User has increased agility stat by 2

User has increased cultivation by 0.001 year

User has increased skill points by 1

User has gained 100 exp

I looked at the third notification with curiosity. Cultivation? From what I had gathered, it was the mysterious energy that seemed to replenish and strengthen my body every time I did the Heaven Devouring Art. Apparently, it was counted in terms of years, and it was very clear that it was a whole new metric that I did not understand.

"System. How much experience do I need to level up to level 5?" I asked.

"User needs 9000 exp to level 5. It will take 90 days like today for User to grow strong enough to break out of the cave and successfully survive what is outside." the system said.

Ninety days?!! It looks like the next three months, this was the only thing that I was allowed to do!
