Chapter 967: Moment Of Enlightenment
Li Yunmu felt completely abysmal at that moment. He had believed that the system was the most formidable existence, but there actually existed many formidable existences similar to it in the world.
What made him feel the most tired, however, was that he had been walking his path for a long time already. He was pushed by one matter after another, and from a helpless ordinary person, he had come to be a formidable existence.
But from the start to end, he had never seen the end of his path. Then why was he still continuing cultivation? Even if he cultivated and became a powerhouse like the system, what would happen then?
What about the existences more powerful than the system? Would he still have to continue cultivating to catch up to them?
At that moment, Li Yunmu’s heart was in complete chaos. He suddenly realized that he didn’t have any goal and was being pulled like a puppet by someone.
He hadn’t wanted this sort of life, but he was only a loser without any far-reaching goals and ambitions before he obtained the system. All he had wished for at that time was to not be a chess piece for others.


Right now though, he felt that living as an ordinary person was very good…
While thinking about it, Li Yunmu sat down cross-legged and restrained his presence completely. At that moment, he had encountered the first threshold in his cultivation journey and he couldn’t just rush past it.
Li Yunmu sat in a meditative state like an old monk until dust collected on his shoulders and head, but he didn’t even brush them away.
He was like a statue, completely motionless. His thoughts became slower, and he stopped thinking about everything. All he wanted right then was to continue sitting like he was, for he felt very comfortable at that moment.
With him in that state, half a year passed in a flash. By then, Li Yunmu’s body was already covered by a deep layer of dust, and the young talents who had entered the Yin Imperial Palace had withdrawn a long time ago.
None of them remembered the unremarkable youth who had entered the place together with them.
[Stupid! You are beyond cure!]
When the system’s cold voice resounded in Li Yunmu’s brain, his eyelashes flickered, and dust fell off them. He slowly opened his eyes.
During the whole half a year, he hadn’t done anything. He just put away all other matters from his mind and recalled everything from the beginning.
It made him realize that he had really become tired over the years. He recalled the joy when he first obtained the system, remembered his first shadow Li Yun, and the days of the school.


He remembered the people he met during the journey and also remembered his mom and dad as well as older sister.

Why you calling me stupid? I’m feeling extremely comfortable right now.

Li Yunmu took a deep breath and his body trembled, which threw the dust away. He then shook his head to relax his stiff neck.
The system sighed. When it had told Li Yunmu about things that were beyond him, it was certain that Li Yunmu would fall into a loop, but it hadn’t expected that he would remain trapped for so long.
The system knew that Li Yunmu had been walking on a knife’s edge throughout the years, experiencing countless crises and tribulations as well as being ridiculed by countless people. He had to go through many things to reach his level
But Li Yunmu lacked one thing, and that was the spirit of a powerhouse. He needed a lofty heart to obtain his ideals, be unafraid to sail against the currents and face difficulties.
If heavens obstruct me, then I will destroy them. If earth tricks me, then I will break it open.
It was the mentality that a powerhouse should possess. No person who was able to become an almighty did not possess a staunch resolve and heaven-defying life.
But Li Yunmu, who was born in an ordinary family, didn’t have this sort of thinking. Ever since Earth experienced the Dark Ages, a fixed thinking had become deep-rooted in its people.
Only those with formidable bloodline could become powerhouse, and only those who became powerhouses could have a good life.


And Li Yunmu, who was an ordinary person previously, felt that he was an ordinary person who wouldn’t be able to stand out among his peers. Thus, the mentality of a powerhouse was deeply buried at the bottom of his heart and never seen.
The system had informed him about the matter of ancient times in hopes that he could see the light of day and reach the glory of days long past.
Li Yunmu possessed the bloodline of an ancient war saint, so how could the system be willing to watch blankly as this bloodline fell into oblivion. Therefore, it deliberately told Li Yunmu about things he should not know to put some pressure on him.
It should have aroused his fighting spirit and desire to surpass those ancient existences, so he would put even more effort into cultivation. But what caught the system unprepared was that Li Yunmu’s inferiority complex was extremely great.
He and his father had been completely ordinary, so after Li Yunmu obtained the system, he crazily drew on its support to achieve the life he wanted.
But a voice echoed again and again in his heart, and it said that if he didn’t possess the system, he would be nothing, just a loser bullied by everyone!
So when Li Yunmu heard that there were surprisingly many existences at the same level as the system, he did not feel resentful. Instead, he became scared. He was afraid of losing, afraid that he wouldn’t be able to defeat those people and might even be killed.
Because of that, he sealed himself for half a year.
If the system didn’t call on him, he would have remained with his mind shut off for even longer. But the system couldn’t continue watching Li Yunmu being so depressed.
It chose to sneer at him then and said, [A few trifling existences from the ancient past have terrified you to this extent? It seems like your achievements will stop here.]


Li Yunmu didn’t reply. He stood up and began to move his hand and feet. After staying in the stone room for half a year, his limbs had become rigid.
When the system saw that Li Yunmu wasn’t replying, it felt resentful and roared angrily, [You are a coward! Do you know why those ancient existences have been dormant for so many years and why I ended up with this type of body?]

What does that have to do with me!
Li Yunmu coldly said.
The system was about to rain abuses on Li Yunmu when it heard him speak with anger in his voice.
Some existences from ancient times? I am a man, so how could I be afraid of them! If they provoke me, then I will wipe them out.

[You figured it out?] the system asked blankly.

What is there to understand?
Li Yunmu asked rhetorically.
Don’t these creatures of ancient times possess a body of blood and flesh? Don’t they die? Then what’s there to understand?

His continuous questions left the system dumbstruck.

I was born as an ordinary person, yet there are so many powerhouses afraid of me right now! So what do those ancient existences count as! I, Li Yunmu, will tell you now that only I can become the true master of the heavens!

After those words, Li Yunmu’s presence exploded, creating an enormous shockwave which formed a vacuum.
Within half a year, Li Yunmu’s mentality of a powerhouse had been roused, and his strength had advanced to the next level.


Such latent potential was extremely terrifying!
