“The God-tier Enlightenment System?” Zhou Yun thought out loud.

He came back to his senses and his eyes narrowed slightly.

There was actually a system?

He had thought that after transmigrating for so long, he would not have any cheats.

After all, the main characters of the novels he read in the past had all received their cheats as soon as they had transmigrated. How could there be a main character like him that only received his cheat a year after his transmigration?

Zhou Yun’s heart ached as he recalled his experiences over the past year.

He worked harder than everyone else, but he didn’t get anything in return.

Yet, when he wanted to give up now, the system came. What a joke!

He murmured, “Based on the name alone, this system seems to be very powerful.”

Zhou Yun cast these thoughts to the back of his mind and began to study the system.

Just as he was deep in thought, the system’s voice sounded again. It changed from a cold mechanical voice to a cute female voice.

“Handsome Master, this system doesn’t just look powerful. This system has the most potential for growth and is the most powerful system in the world!”

Hearing this female voice, Zhou Yun’s mood immediately improved. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, then he said to the system, “Then, can you introduce yourself?”

“Yes, Master. This is the God-tier Enlightenment System. Its function is very simple. It can help Master enter the state of enlightenment at any time and place.”

The cute female voice continued, “No matter what Master is doing, with just a thought, you can enter the desired state as you please.”

Zhou Yun questioned, “I can attain enlightenment anytime, anywhere? How is that possible?”

Hearing the system’s introduction, Zhou Yun immediately held his breath. He revealed a look of disbelief.

He had cultivated in Spirit Valley for a long time, so he naturally knew the mysteries of enlightenment.

Enlightenment referred to instant acquisition of a skill!

This kind of thing usually occurred to powerful beings.

A moment of enlightenment meant that one had mastered a certain power. Their strength would be greatly increased.

Small figures like him would not dare to dream of such things.

Entering a state of enlightenment was something that could only be encountered by chance!

Most people would not even encounter it once in their entire lives.

A single moment of enlightenment could increase one’s strength tremendously!

If Zhou Yun could enter a state of enlightenment at any given time, wouldn’t he be able to become stronger any time he wanted?

This was too good to be true!

As he thought of this, he calmed his wildly beating heart and said, “I accept the system!”

The female voice responded, “Alright! Binding the God-tier Enlightenment System to you.”

Just as the system finished speaking, Zhou Yun felt a cool and refreshing sensation sweep over his body and then his mind.

He quickly closed his eyes to indulge in this state. A mysterious sound made him feel comfortable.

10 minutes later, the sensation he experienced slowly wore off.

“Are you done? Is that it?” Zhou Yun opened his eyes and looked around, but he did not notice any changes.

The system’s cute voice sounded again, saying, “Yes, Master. The God-tier Enlightenment System has been bound to you. From now on, you can enter the state of enlightenment with just a thought!”

“I don’t feel any different.”

Zhou Yun tried to circulate his spiritual Qi, but his sealed meridians were still sealed. There was no change at all.

The system suggested, “Master, you can try cultivating a cultivation technique.”

Zhou Yun did so without any hesitation.

He immediately sat down cross-legged and tried cultivating the Spiritual Qi Mantra.

This was the basic cultivation technique that all outer sect disciples of Spirit Valley practiced.

It was mainly used to absorb spiritual Qi and increase one’s cultivation level.

Although the spiritual Qi around him now was thin, it was not to the point where there was none at all.

By relying on this cultivation technique, he could still absorb some of the spiritual Qi around him for cultivation.

The majority of the outer sect disciples also relied on this cultivation technique to cultivate to the third or fourth layer of Qi cultivation.

After sitting down, Zhou Yun closed his eyes and started cultivating.

As soon as he started, the mistakes he made when he first started cultivating immediately surfaced in his mind.

Then, he was enlightened to the correct cultivation method.

He followed the method that appeared in his mind and started to cultivate again step by step.

He whispered, “I need to slow down at the beginning and keep it going continuously.”

As soon as he activated the cultivation technique, he felt the spiritual Qi around his body quickly circulate.

His body also slowly emitted a mysterious light.

Following the method in his mind, he thought out loud, “I need to find the pace here and be flexible to changes.”

In the process of enlightenment, he discovered that he had to cultivate according to the rhythm of the cultivation method.

There was a rhythm to cultivation?

This was something he had never thought of.

However, cultivating at this pace felt extremely easy.

Unknowingly, Zhou Yun had been engrossed in the rhythm of the technique!

He didn’t want to stop at all.

In the past, cultivation was a torture.

Now, he was enjoying it!

From this, one could see how important it was to cultivate according to the rhythm of the cultivation technique.

He reminded himself, “Slow down. I need to go even slower.”

Bang!

A moment later, a slight muffled sound came from Zhou Yun’s body.

After that, his meridians, which felt like they had been blocked with iron blocks, actually loosened a little.

However, he paid it no heed.

Zhou Yun’s consciousness had now entered an indescribable state.

He was enjoying this wonderful cultivation process.

He seemed to have forgotten everything around him.

After a short while, it was as if something had broken.

His already loose meridians were suddenly unobstructed!

Then, the spiritual Qi in the surroundings was quickly drawn into his body.

His aura began to rise rapidly!

Zhou Yun still did not care.

At this moment, he didn’t care about whether he had a breakthrough or not. He preferred engrossing himself in the rhythm of his cultivation.

He exclaimed, “I will push right through this point and then circulate the Qi faster!”

He tirelessly followed the rhythm in his mind and cultivated, enjoying the process.

He only had one thought going through his mind: this cultivation technique was too simple. It was as easy as ABC.

It was so satisfying. He didn’t want to stop cultivating.

“Is this still the same cultivation technique that I couldn’t understand before this, no matter how hard I tried?”

Zhou Yun already knew the answer to this question.

His previous cultivation attempts had always been straightforward.

He had no idea that each cultivation technique had their own rhythms.

When he attained enlightenment earlier, he circulated his Qi according to the rhythm of the cultivation technique. Once he did so, he obtained an unexpected harvest.

Previously, when he circulated his spiritual Qi, he felt like he was carrying a person on his back, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

Now, it was as if he was floating in the air, and he could use his Qi effortlessly.

Furthermore, the speed in which he circulated his Qi was more than five times faster than before.

It was much easier.

It was so simple that it felt like cheating!

No, this was cheating!

He was blatantly cheating!

Very quickly, he had already familiarized himself with the entire technique.

He exclaimed, “Is this the feeling of cultivation? It’s simply too good!”

Zhou Yun was enjoying the process of cultivation.

Originally, he only had a rough grasp of the Spiritual Qi Mantra.

It was as if he had been memorizing it without understanding it.

Now, he had a much deeper understanding of this cultivation technique.

The process of cultivation was like singing a song. One had to grasp the rhythm.

Songs were easy to sing and pleasant to hear.

It was the same for cultivation.

Some parts needed to be relaxed, some needed to be light, some needed to be rushed, some needed to be steady.

By grasping the rhythm, he could do more with less.

This kind of cultivation process was simply too pleasurable.

He was addicted to it, and he didn’t want to leave this state at all.
