Dying Is Not an Option—Tell That to My System!

The moment the boar fell into the trap, a chime echoed in Lu Chunhe's mind.

Ding![First Task Completed: Successfully Captured a Wild Boar]

Before Chunhe could react, his vision blurred—a tidal wave of information flooded his mind. His legs wobbled, his breathing hitched, and he collapsed onto the soft earth.

And then—a translucent screen appeared before him.

Chunhe gawked at the panel before him. A system?

He had heard tales of legendary cultivators stumbling upon mystical inheritances, ancient relics, and grand sect legacies. But a farming-based system was...

...unexpected.

But, hey. A path to power was a path to power.

With a flick of his fingers, he opened the Character Information Panel.

[Character Information Panel]

[Distribute Points?]

Chunhe's eyes twitched.

"No cultivation, no skills, and farming as my only ability?!"

The heavens really had a sense of humor.

He sighed. "Fine. Let's at least distribute the points..."

For now, he put +3 into Agility (since running from problems was his specialty) and +2 into Stamina (because carrying crops all day wasn't easy).

[Points Allocated]Strength: +2 → Slightly StrongerAgility: +3 → Can Run 20% Faster

A small boost of energy surged through his body. His muscles felt firmer, and his legs felt lighter.

"Not bad..." he muttered. "Now, let's check out the shop."

He tapped the [Shop Panel].

Chunhe hesitated. Martial Arts sounded tempting. But his current reality?

A broke farmer with no combat skills.

If he wanted to survive in this world, his best bet was growing stronger through the land.

A new list unfolded before him.

Chunhe grinned.

A new world of possibilities had just opened before him.

[Spatial Farm Unlocked]

Suddenly, the scenery shifted.

One moment, he was in the village field. The next—he stood in a vast, misty expanse.

A small thatched hut sat before him. Ten fields of freshly tilled soil stretched nearby. A gentle spring bubbled beside a modest wooden barn.

At the hut's entrance?

A doghouse.

Empty.

But Chunhe already knew—it was meant for Big D.

Ding! [Shop & Farm Interface Unlocked]

Two icons blinked before him.

[Shop][Farm Introduction]

Chunhe inhaled sharply.

This wasn't just a simple farming plot.

It was a path to power.

He tapped [Farm Introduction].

A flood of knowledge poured into his mind.

His farm wasn't just limited to this space. The soil and water could be used outside, enhancing real-world farmland.Given time, he could expand, grow mystical crops, trade harvests for EXP, and even raise spirit beasts.Some crops could boost cultivation, heal wounds, or even grant longevity.The stronger his farm, the stronger he became.

Chunhe's grin widened.

"Not only will I cultivate, but I'll also get rich doing it."

He turned back to the shop panel.

[Welcome to the Spatial Shop.]What would you like to purchase?

Chunhe rubbed his hands together.

Let the true journey begin.
