Chapter 1: Transmigration and the System That Won’t Shut Up

 A Sudden Death, A New Beginning

Lin Feng had always been an ordinary guy. No special talents, no godly luck—just an overworked office worker who occasionally read cultivation manhua to escape reality.(just like any other reincarnated person. Don't underestimate overworked office workers because they are MCs almost )

But reality had other plans.(^⁠_⁠^)

One moment, he was crossing the street, sipping his coffee. The next, a heaven-defying truck came barreling at him like it had a personal grudge.(Or you can say it the all time strongest truck-Kun as in japanease anime and manga which is responsible of almost all powerful reincarnated characters )

"Wait, isn't this how protagonists—"

BANG!

Darkness.

Then, suddenly… light.

Lin Feng opened his eyes and found himself standing in an ancient world with towering mountains, floating islands, and a sky filled with cultivators soaring like shooting stars.

"Where the hell am I?!"

[Ding! Supreme Sect System Activated!]

A System With an Attitude

A floating golden screen appeared in front of him.

[Welcome, Host! Congratulations! You have been chosen as the leader of a soon-to-be legendary sect!]

[Mission: Establish a sect and prove your worth. Failure will result in immediate punishment.]

Lin Feng frowned. "Wait… sect? I don't even know how to cultivate!"

[Don't worry, Host! The Supreme Sect System will guide you every step of the way!]

"Really?"

[Yes! By the way, if you fail this mission, you'll be forced to wear a 'Beggar Sect Leader' signboard for a month.]

"...What?"

[Oh, and your cultivation will be locked for three days as additional punishment.]

"You damn scam system!"

[Scam? Host, I am literally giving you a path to power and prestige! But sure, go ahead, refuse. Just don't cry when you're beaten up by street thugs.]

Lin Feng took a deep breath. "Fine. What do I do first?"

[Simple! Start by recruiting your first disciple and securing a sect location. Your current ranking: Shack Sect.]

"... Shack Sect? That's even worse than a backyard dojo!"

[Correct! You're currently qualified to own a shack. Or a cave. Your choice, Host.]

Lin Feng groaned. "Fine. I need people. Where can I find disciples?"

[There's a village nearby with desperate cultivators. Go there, use your wits, and recruit them!]

"Alright, let's—wait, I don't even know how to fight!"

[Host, please check your inventory.]

Lin Feng swiped his hand through the air, and an inventory screen popped up.

[Starter Pack: 1x Basic Cultivation Technique, 10x Low-Grade Spirit Stones, 1x Sect Leader Robe (Tattered)]

Lin Feng's eye twitched.

"...Why is my robe tattered?"

[Because you're poor.]

Lin Feng clenched his fists. "Just wait, System. One day, I'll make you eat your words."

[Oh? I'll be waiting. But first—get to work, Sect Leader!]

And so, with nothing but a system, a tattered robe, and a dream, Lin Feng set off to establish the strongest sect in all realms… starting from absolute rock bottom.
