Chapter - 1 (Invincible... am I?)

Some people say power is great, without power there is no authority.

Even the beggar won't buzz when you ask him unless you have authority.

What's the authority you say?

Authority is the power!

It's not the political power nor public power.

It's the real power.

"Cultivation!"

Getting reincarnated into the aura reviving planet, Ye Chen has been living low-key for more than 20 years.

Without a background and job, he has been writing novels for almost a year.

With a little bit of money earned from the writing, he has been living in his two story house for five years.

You can imagine writing a wish fulfilment novel in the aura recovery world hits differently on the internet when the least amount of people can become cultivators.

When he was 18, he bought an apartment and started to live on the city, his parents still send pocket money to him and some allowance for college.

However...

Five years ago, the aura revived in the world and the world went into a sudden transformation.

The creatures inside the earth began to mutate, like plants, animals, aquatic animals.

The first thing they did after the mutate was fighting for supremacy.

But who were humans?

Manipulative and greedy!

They casually deployed a nuclear missile and destroyed the bunch of mutated beasts scaring their eighteen generations.

After a month, humans started to sense spiritual energy and became cultivators.

The first cultivator of the modern era.

Then, the government created an independent organization to control the cultivators.

Cultivation Association.

Every person who can cultivate has to get a disciple token from the cultivation association unless they want to be executed.

Becoming a titled cultivator also has its advantage.

Lingxu City,

On a small balcony of the two story house, Ye Chen stretched his body. His sharp yet calm eyes scanned the skyline and he yawned.

The faint breeze carried the distinct scent of spiritual energy, a smell he had gotten used to over the years. Below him, the city busted with activity.

On the street pedestrians were walking, their faces envyed as they stared at the flying cultivator on the sword.

They too want to become cultivators but they don't have spiritual roots.

After the aura reviving era, the whole world has drastically changed.

Yet, Seeing this scene Ye Chen remained indifferent to the change.

Suddenly, a sound came from his bedroom. His phone was buzzing with notification.

With a thought, his phone flew towards him and stopped in the mid air.

The screen projected dozens of comments from readers of his latest web novel, I am Invincible.

This protagonist is way too OP. Where's the suspense?"

"I stopped reading when he destroyed a mountain by sneezing. Too unrealistic."

"Still, the writing's not bad. Looking forward to the next chapter."

Ye Chen chuckled, glancing through the comments. He didn't write to please anyone. He wrote for himself. It was a habit that he picked up to kill time when his life became too easy.

He snapped his fingers, and the phone obediently landed on the desk. A mug of tea floated from the kitchen to his side, steaming hot. As he slipped the tea, his mind wandered back to the day when everything changed.

Five years ago, the world had been plunged into the chaos. Without any warning, humanity falls into the complete pause, as if the universe itself has been pressed pause.

When the living beings regained consciousness, nothing was the same in the world.

Terrestrial and aquatic animals were mutated.

Plants and trees mutated.

The mountain and rivers mutated.

And the most terrifying thing was invasion of demons.

Humans felt that they didn't know anything about the new earth.

Just what the hell happened in just a few seconds?

Animals and plants are mutated into terrifying monsters. The mountain grew taller, rivers were filled with vitality, and the air grew dense with a mysterious energy.

Humanity soon discovered what this energy was, spiritual energy between heaven and earth. The key to Cultivation.

But Ye Chen's experience during that day was different.

While the rest of the world was paused, Ye Chen was awake and bathed in golden light.

A virtual interface appeared in front of his sight.

[Name - Ye Chen]

[Age -20]

[Status- Invincible, Fantasy King.]

The declaration was simple, yet it's meaning was profound. Ye Chen didn't feel any immediate changes, no surging power or dramatic transformation.

But when he glanced at his reflection in the mirror, he noticed something odd, his eyes sparked with a faint glow, like stars and universes swimming within.

Experimenting cautiously, he discovered his newfound strength. A causal punch broke the space in front of him which was healed a few minutes later.

He could summon storms, manipulate elements, and even the flow of spacetime easily.

It wasn't long before he realized the truth: he had no limits.

He went to the space, he could breathe in space which was astonishing. He swam in the sun and broke dozens of stars.

Standing at the time and space, he casually waved his hand and an entire brand new mini universe was created in his palm.

Bing bang happened and planets were distributed as living and non living.

He manipulates the mini universe and makes a huge galaxy system with hundreds of planets

Then, speeding the time and using his magical powers the creatures were born in the world. He controlled the world for a certain amount of time before he was bored and casually threw the mini universe towards the spacetime turbulence.

Then, he came to earth but there weren't any signs of earth.

Seeing this, he opened the spacetime channel and went into the time point when he disappeared from earth.

After that he went over the table, drinking the tea he felt refreshed.

Still, the tea from his home was still sweet.

Now, five years later, Ye Chen has grown to his above god existence. With perfect control over his powers, he suppressed his powers.

Like one might lower their voice in a library, the planet couldn't handle the full extent of his strength.

If he sneezed without restraint, the consequences would be catastrophic.

Just like the on the novel he wrote!

He had lived quietly all this time, avoiding attention. It wasn't fear or obligation, but because he found the world's struggles amusing.

Watching others scramble to cultivate, risking their lives in ancient ruins just to gain even the smallest edge, was like watching ants fighting over crumbs.

Suddenly, Ye Chen's thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of the doorbell.

"You are—!" He froze, staring at the person standing at the door.

An incredibly beautiful woman stood there, her red hair glowing in the sunlight. Her fair skin seemed to radiate a soft glow, and her sparkling eyes were staring at him.

"Surprise!" she said with a bright smile, stepping forward to hug him.

Ye Chen quickly pushed her away. "Sister?" he asked, staring at her in surprise.

"Why are you here?" he asked, glancing behind her nervously. "Did Mother come too?"

"Nope, just me!" she said casually. "I've been transferred here for work. My company has set me up in this city, so… get ready to be annoyed until I buy a new house!"

Before he could respond, she walked past him into the house like she owned the place.

Ye Chen smiled warily. The woman now barging into his home was none other than his twin sister, Ye Lingxi. Though she was one minute younger than him, she always insisted on being called the older sister.

Ever since they were kids, she had a knack for taking anything good he had. He could still remember the time he got a new toy, only for her to cry in front of their mother and take it from him.

What could he do back then? He would given it up, and that pattern had continued ever since.

And now, here she was again. He could already tell what was coming.

Ye Lingxi didn't waste any time. As soon as she entered, she made her way towards his bedroom.

"This room looks nice. I'm taking it," she said, stepping inside without hesitation.

Before Ye Chen could object, the door was slammed in his face. He stared at the closed door for a moment, exhaling deeply.

Looks like I'll be sleeping in the guest room, he thought bitterly.

Although I have become invincible, I am still Ye Chen, the same person who will always be annoyed by his sister.
