In Konoha, you get one evolution point every day.

My name is Lin Fan, and it seems I've traveled through time.

Looking at the desolate mountains and wilderness where the occasional roar of a tiger could be heard, Lin Fan silently looked at the dark cave to the side.

"Where have I been transported to? Is this still in China?"

Lin Fan entered the cave and pondered his future path in life.

The main problem is that he doesn't know where he is, and there's no food. If it's some kind of isolated island, then he's doomed.

His last memory was of the hazard lights.

Lin Fan found a rock in the cave that he could sit on and sat down.

"Given my name, I've most likely transmigrated into a fantasy world of cultivation..."

Xiao, Ye, Li, Lin, Fang, Chu—these are all famous surnames of protagonists in cultivation fantasy novels.

"Now all that's missing is the cheat code... I think the password is... If I had another chance—"

No, this seems to be the password for the reborn.

[Ding! Daily Evolution Points System has been bound!]

Hmm? The reborn person's password will work too?

Lin Fan's eyes lit up as he stared at the pale blue light screen that continued to pop up in front of him.

[The host has been detected to have arrived in the Nine Realms of the Divine Continent, the Divine Realm, known as the strongest of the nine heavens in all realms. Even Golden Immortals may perish in the Lower Three Realms.]

[For each day the host survives, the system will award one evolution point. Evolution points can be used to evolve everything!]

[Extra Evolution Points for the Host Today!]

Daily Evolution Points will be distributed at 00:00!

[Due to the world's extreme danger, the intelligent sprite that came with this system has run away. Host, please take care of yourself.]

Evolution Point: 1

[Evolution Requirements Inquiry]

[Evolutionary Data Query]

Lin Fanya was stunned after reading the whole thing.

Oh no, is this really the cultivation world, or even the Nine Realms, which are even more powerful than the cultivation world? And why didn't you take me with you, AI?! I'm scared too!

Images of fantasy and cultivation masters slapping away entire continents with a single palm suddenly flashed through his mind... He was finished.

......

There were no cultivation methods, no teachers, and not even anyone to talk to.

Lin Fan really didn't know how he could survive in the Nine Realms of Shenzhou.

"At this point, we have no choice but to try this evolution point."

He spends a little time each day in the cave. Right now, what he needs most is to have enough physical strength so he can hunt.

[Stamina: 1]

Only a little? Then I'll use it!

The Evolution Points page has been reset to zero, and a new item has appeared in the [Evolution Data] section: "Stamina Evolution +1": "Stamina recovery speed slightly increased."

"That's it?" Lin Fan stared blankly at the new evolution details on the panel. He didn't feel any increase in strength at all.

Moreover, he discovered that the next evolution would require 3 points of stamina.

......

A campfire, and a dead rabbit.

Lin Fan didn't do anything special; he simply threw the rabbit onto the fire to roast.

As darkness fell and the surroundings grew colder, the sky darkened.

"It's so cold. This other world is no fun at all."

The rabbit was roasted, but there wasn't much meat, and since there were no seasonings, it smelled quite fragrant, but tasted incredibly bland.

Feeling his strength returning, Lin Fan was filled with hope for the system's sustainable development.

Perhaps, he really will survive.

.......

Before we knew it, a year had passed.

"Eyes Evolution +5": "Your vision is far superior to that of ordinary people. You can see clearly within a range of one kilometer, adapt instantly to the dark, quickly capture moving objects, and your eyes hardly get tired."

"Found it." Lin Fan grabbed a homemade bow and with a whoosh, the arrow flew more than a hundred meters and hit a wild boar steadily.

The wild boar's forehead was perfectly pierced by the arrow.

"Archery - Evolution +3": "Your archery skills far surpass those of ancient generals. Within a range of 200 meters, your arrows are both accurate and fast."

"Attack Evolution +3": "All your attacks will have their power increased by 1 time."

"Strength Evolution +3": "Your strength is comparable to that of a fully grown bull."

With that kind of strength and archery skill, killing a strong adult wild boar would be a piece of cake.

"I haven't run into anyone..." Lin Fan didn't know if it was because this place was too remote, but a year had passed and he hadn't seen a single person.

Su Su——

"Dual Ears - Evolution +5": "Your hearing is far superior to that of ordinary people. When you calm down, you can easily detect sounds within a one-kilometer radius. You don't need to worry too much about sonic attacks from loud noises. You can even judge the shape of the opponent based on the sound."

"Four people." Lin Fan opened his eyes, immediately found the "Concealment" skill to upgrade, and at the same time looked for a place to hide.

"Stealth Evolution +2" → "Stealth Evolution +3": "Your ability to hide will be greatly improved. As long as you don't make any big movements, even if you stand in front of an ordinary person, they will not be able to detect your presence at all."

Lin Fan hid himself, and the four people appeared.

The moment Lin Fan saw the four people clearly, countless question marks appeared above his head.

"Jiraiya-sensei, there seemed to be some movement here just now?" The blond-haired youth was the first to arrive at the spot where Lin Fan landed, and squatted down to touch the soil where Lin Fan had stood.

"Minato, could it just be your imagination?" a black-haired girl with her hair tied up asked Minato.

"Minato's observation skills have always been very strong," said a serious-looking boy wearing a headband that resembled that of the Second Hokage.

The two are named Zuo Qingmaoshu and Dekai, respectively.

"No, Minato's analysis is correct. There are indeed people here," said Jiraiya, the oldest member of the group, who was standing on a tree trunk looking into the distance. "It's because there happens to be a dead wild boar there."

The three arrived at Jiraiya's tree trunk and, following the direction Jiraiya was looking, quickly spotted the wild boar with an arrow piercing its head.

"How is that possible? Bow and arrow? Are there still ninjas using such weapons these days?" Minato didn't believe that an ordinary person could shoot through a wild boar with a bow and arrow.

Jiraiya shook his head: "That wound didn't show any chakra reaction; it was purely blasted through by brute force... So, are you free to come out now?"

He didn't know why, but he had a feeling that person was still here.

The three men from Minato were on high alert.

After waiting for a while, no one appeared.

"Teacher, are you sure you're not mistaken?" Minato asked in a low voice.

"There's no reason for this..." Jiraiya muttered to himself, feeling that his intuition was usually quite accurate. "Could it be that I'm mistaken?"

Zuo Qingmao and Dekai, standing nearby, looked speechless.

Can this perception be wrong?

......

The four left quickly.

Lin Fan did not go out.

"Language Evolution +3": "You have basically mastered the language of mortals. Even if you use Mandarin, it will be the most familiar language to others."

He overheard the conversation between the four people.

He now has a very serious question he wants to ask the system.

—What happened to the promised Nine Realms and Nine Heavens of China?

—Isn't it true that even Golden Immortals in the Lower Three Realms aren't necessarily alive?

—Are Minato and Jiraiya considered figures from the lower realms in this wave of feng shui? Are you playing a Chinese fantasy/cultivation game in the world of anime and manga?

Lin Fan was furious. He hadn't traveled far from home for over a year in order to hide. If it weren't for his evolved fur, he could probably live like a savage now.

"Is there really no one here?" Jiraiya led his team back to the vicinity where Lin Fan had just been standing.

Lin Fan had already heard it, so he didn't go out.

Damn, these ninjas are really cunning. Their intelligence gathering is no joke either. Level 3 Concealment makes it look like child's play for them. Even when they're at level 2 Concealment, they can walk slowly in front of ordinary animals and the other side can't see them.

"Teacher, it seems it was just your imagination. That person should have already left." Minato Namikaze carefully sensed his surroundings and confirmed that there were no living people around before speaking.

"Fine, whatever." Jiraiya turned and left with his men, looking helpless.

Lin Fan waited for another ten minutes or so to confirm that Jiraiya's team had left before emerging from the jungle to deactivate the "Concealment" skill effect.

Lin Fan glanced around and immediately concluded, "This is not a place to linger!"

We have to run!
