Battle Through the Heavens: Achievement System at the Start

Time flies, like a long journey of self-cultivation, which Xiao Yao spent alone in silence.

Time passed quietly like flowing water, but Xiao Yao remained steadfast in this world that belonged to him, silently cultivating and looking forward to the arrival of that day.

Three years later, Xiao Yao can finally breathe a sigh of relief. He sits on his bed, legs crossed, hands in a mudra, as if the whole world has stood still.

The surrounding battle qi seemed to be summoned, surging towards Xiao Yao, merging into his body, nourishing his torso and limbs, and his entire body radiated a golden glow.

The commotion was so great that even the courtyard shone brightly. Anyone passing by Xiao Yao's residence would notice the unusual activity.

Xiao Yao could feel that powerful force flowing within his body, like a giant dragon that had been lurking deep within, finally awakening at this moment.

Xiao Yao closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and let the power flow through his body, leaving no corner untouched.

Finally, Xiao Yao exhaled and opened his eyes.

His eyes gleamed with unwavering determination, as if he could see through all illusions.

Xiao Yao thought to himself, "This human body that the system rewarded me with actually allows me to easily absorb battle qi to nourish this body, making my physical strength even stronger."

Over the past three years, Xiao Yao has been absorbing external battle qi day after day to nourish his meridians and bones.

Every training session felt like a brush with death, but he didn't give up because Xiao Yao knew that only through such trials could he go further in the future.

Therefore, Xiao Yao can now proudly say that the strength of this body is comparable to that of a fourth-tier magical beast.

Although it was only a small achievement, it was of great significance to Xiao Yao.

Then the long-lost voice appeared again, "Ding, congratulations to the host for your day-to-day persistence, you have successfully obtained the achievement of 'Perseverance'. The host is rewarded with one scroll of the All-Character Secret Combat Technique. (Note: This technique has been modified by the system. This combat technique can enhance one's own strength by many times, up to ten times. Only by cultivating it to the Great Perfection realm can one unleash the full power of the combat technique and increase one's cultivation by a full ten times. Otherwise, it is difficult to trigger this ability.)" The system's mechanical voice rang in his mind.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yao stored the reward in his spatial storage and officially began cultivating. Sitting on the bed, he subtly controlled his body. With each breath, the battle qi of heaven and earth entered his body through his breath, flowing through his meridians to his dantian and forming a thin stream of qi.

At this moment, on the bed, Xiao Yao sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. With each breath, a multicolored stream of energy entered through his mouth and nose, spreading throughout his body. It was absorbed and refined by his bones and meridians, eventually converging in his dantian. The thin stream of energy in the center of his dantian slowly condensed, becoming thicker and more solid.

These days, Xiao Yao has been cultivating his Dou Qi. He felt that his own Dou Qi had reached the threshold. At this moment, a soft sound came, "Crack", and he finally broke through and successfully reached the first level of Dou Qi.

At this moment, Xiao Yao closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and felt the sound of the battle qi flowing in his meridians. He opened his eyes and looked at his right wrist. A golden stream of energy was wrapped around his wrist, flashing with dazzling light.

Xiao Yao stretched out his left hand, feeling the temperature and power of the airflow that had condensed several times, and sighed, "Is this the difference between ordinary people and cultivators?"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully cultivated to the first level of Dou Qi and achieved the 'Minor Success in Cultivation' achievement. You are rewarded with ten cans of beast milk (Note: This item is the same beast milk that Shi Hao in Perfect World loves to drink)."

Xiao Yao quickly took out a can of beast milk from his system space. After looking at it, he found that it was no different from the dairy products he usually drank. When he opened the can of beast milk, a rich milky aroma wafted out, making him want to take a sip.

Xiao Yao picked up the jar, took a small sip, and savored the sweet taste spreading in his mouth.

The taste of this beast milk was rich and mellow, slightly different from what Xiao Yao usually drank; it seemed to contain some kind of special power.

Xiao Yao closed his eyes, carefully sensing the changes within his body. Sure enough, not long after, Xiao Yao felt a warm current flowing through his bones, as if nourishing his body.

Xiao Yao knew that this was the beast milk at work. It could not only improve his bones and muscles, but also make his body stronger.

This change surprised and excited him, because it would help him go further on his future spiritual path.

Xiao Yao continued to slowly savor the beast milk, each sip seemingly containing endless mysteries and power.

Xiao Yao could feel it gradually merging into his body, connecting with his bloodline, and becoming part of his own power.

After drinking the can of beast milk, Xiao Yao felt as if he had been completely rejuvenated and was full of energy.

Xiao Yao saw his body emitting a golden light, and his physical constitution was gradually awakening. He remembered that the system had mentioned the tribulation of lightning, and if he successfully passed it, his physical strength would become even stronger.

The thought of others hitting him with fighting techniques without getting any damage made Xiao Yao casually say, "Brother, are you any good? Give it your all. Didn't you eat?" He would burst out laughing at the look of disbelief on the other's face.

Xiao Yao regarded the remaining nine cans of beast milk as a valuable resource, which could help him build a more solid and stable foundation for his battle qi cultivation.

Xiao Yao stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the world outside.

The sunlight shone on me, warm and bright.

Xiao Yao knew that this was just the beginning, and that the road ahead was long, requiring continued effort and progress.

However, he was not afraid because Xiao Yao had the strongest physique and the rewards given by the system, providing him with this powerful strength as support.

Xiao Yao believed that as long as he persevered, he would be able to overcome any difficulties and challenges he faced.

Back on the bed, Xiao Yao sat with his knees bent and began a new round of cultivation.

Xiao Yao knew that only by constantly cultivating and improving himself could he gain a foothold in this world.

Now, Xiao Yao has enough strength and confidence to face future challenges.

During this year, Xiao Yao spent half his time absorbing battle qi and using beast milk to improve his physique, and the other half cultivating battle qi to improve his cultivation level. Although his physical physique did not improve much, his cultivation level reached at least the seventh stage of battle qi.

It's time to go find my father and ask for some resources for cultivation.

At this moment, Xiao Yao arrived at Xiao Zhan's room, gently knocked on the door, and asked, "Father, are you there?"

The door opened quickly, and the mother came out. When she saw Xiao Yao, she smiled gently and opened her arms to hug him.

"Yao'er, what brings you here? Is something the matter?" the mother asked with concern, gently pinching Xiao Yao's cheek as if to express her love and doting on her child.

Xiao Yao smiled slightly and replied, "Mother, I have something to discuss with Father." After speaking, Xiao Yao took out a list of medicinal herbs from his pocket and handed it to his father.

Xiao Yao thought to himself that it was good that he had copied a few medicinal herbs from his mind beforehand.

The father took the list and carefully examined its contents. Then, he looked up at his son and asked, "Yao'er, what do you mean by this? These are all first-grade medicinal herbs. You're not planning to refine medicine, are you? One needs to reach the Dou Zhe level to begin refining medicine."

Xiao Yao nodded and replied, "Yes, Father, although my cultivation level hasn't reached the Dou Zhe level yet, I do want to try alchemy first. I think alchemy might be a good choice, as it would allow me to better control the use of cultivation resources. Also, I just plan to think about it in advance; I won't start practicing alchemy so soon."

Upon hearing this, the father remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yao'er, your idea is good, but refining medicine is not an easy task; it requires a great deal of effort and time. Are you sure you are ready?"

Seeing Xiao Zhan's serious expression, Xiao Yao replied firmly, "Yes, Father, I am ready. I will study the techniques and methods of alchemy diligently and strive to master this skill as soon as possible."

Xiao Zhan nodded in satisfaction after hearing Xiao Yao's words and indicated that he would support Xiao Yao's decision.

"In a few days, I will prepare several portions of the medicinal herbs on your list and send them to your courtyard. I will also send you some books on how to absorb the battle qi of heaven and earth. You can start trying to cultivate there."

"Alright, Father and Mother, then Yao'er will go back to continue cultivating."

So Xiao Yao turned around, closed the door, and returned to his room to continue his previous cultivation.
