Chapter 61: Diary Of A Transmigrator [PART 1]
Day 27 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
Today marks a significant milestone in my cultivation journey. I’ve successfully perfected two techniques: [Basic Knife Technique] and [Basic Sword Technique]. The sensation of achieving perfection is indescribable—like reaching the purest expression of movement, where every unnecessary motion has been stripped away, leaving only flawless execution.
To celebrate this achievement, I prepared a grand feast using my newly improved culinary skills. The dishes I created seemed to have an unexpected effect on Master. Throughout the meal, I noticed tears streaming down his face. I’ve never seen him display such emotion before. Perhaps my cooking triggered some long-forgotten memory? Whatever the reason, it was strangely touching to see this usually stoic elder so moved.
Taking advantage of the positive atmosphere, I approached Martial Aunt about acquiring more techniques. After considerable persuasion—and likely influenced by the extraordinary meal I’d just served—she eventually relented and granted me eighteen different weapon techniques! Her skepticism was written plainly across her face, but I maintained an earnest expression.
I spent the remainder of the day practicing these new techniques with my junior sister’s assistance. My approach might seem unorthodox to most cultivators—switching between weapons every few minutes rather than mastering one at a time—but my heightened battle awareness allows me to transition seamlessly without losing momentum.
An interesting discovery today: my battle intent enables me to exert nearly the same force with beginner-level techniques as I could with completion-level techniques. This unexpected synergy makes my unorthodox training method even more effective.
After tonight’s reset, my Phantom Footwork technique broke through to the intermediate level, substantially increasing my movement speed. The system showed:
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Beginner (20/100)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Beginner (20/100) → Beginner (40/100)]
Day 28 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
Training continued as established, with Junior Sister helping me cycle through various weapons at regular intervals. During lunch, I noticed Master seemed somewhat dejected. Perhaps he was hoping for another extravagant feast? If he truly desires such treatment, he should offer something of value like Martial Aunt did with the techniques. Of course, I kept these thoughts to myself, offering only silent consolation in my heart.
Today’s reset brought remarkable progress. All the weapon techniques I’ve been practicing advanced to the minor success stage. Even more impressively, my Mountain Heart Sutra advanced to level two, elevating my mind to level two as well.
The mental transformation is extraordinary—like suddenly gaining access to cognitive abilities far beyond what any human in my previous world could achieve. My thoughts flow with crystal clarity, connections forming between concepts with effortless precision. Still, I remind myself that this is merely a stepping stone, not my ultimate destination.
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Beginner (60/100) (+40/100)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Beginner (60/100) → Minor Success (0/200)]
Day 29 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
Today proceeded without particular incident—just continued training with Junior Sister, cycling through the various weapon techniques as always.
After reset, my Iron Body technique reached the perfect stage, becoming the third technique I’ve mastered to this level. The physical changes are profound and immediate. Not only has my skin hardened beyond normal iron, but my internal organs and even blood vessels have undergone similar transformation. It feels as though I’ve been reforged from the inside out, becoming something fundamentally different from my original form. The durability this provides should significantly enhance my survival chances in future confrontations.
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Minor Success (40/200) (+40/200)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Minor Success (40/200) → Minor Success (80/200)]
Day 30 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
Martial Aunt was absent during lunch today. I carefully preserved her portion, storing it in my spatial pouch when I noticed Master eyeing it with poorly concealed interest. I’m almost certain I heard him click his tongue in disappointment, though perhaps that was merely my imagination.
Upon Martial Aunt’s return, I presented her with the saved meal. Her gratitude was so overwhelming she nearly kowtowed to me—I barely managed to catch her before she could complete the gesture, which would have made things unnecessarily complicated.
Her appreciation for my cooking is truly remarkable. Considering she’s actively helping me unlock an ancient physique, I should continue prioritizing her well-being. Supporting her also means supporting Master, as there seems to be something going on between them. Perhaps I’ll have a martial nephew sooner than expected?
After reset, all my weapon techniques advanced to the intermediate stage—truly impressive progress. Additionally, my body cultivation broke through to the 7th layer, substantially increasing my physical strength.
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Minor Success (120/200) (+40/200)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Minor Success (120/200) → Intermediate (0/300)]
Day 31 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
Junior Sister appeared to struggle against me during today’s training sessions. This is likely due to the combination of my perfect-level Iron Body technique and my advancement to the 7th layer of Body Refining. If she’s finding our sparring too challenging, I wonder why she doesn’t simply increase her cultivation level a bit? She’s clearly holding back significantly.
After reset, my cooking finally broke through to the 6th grade. Since I so recently demonstrated my 7th grade cooking abilities, I’ve decided to keep this advancement secret for now, continuing to display only 7th grade techniques when preparing meals.
I’ve also noticed my Spirit Flame has already reached the thousands, while my Battle Instinct is now in the tens of thousands. My Enlightenment continues accelerating and will soon reach a hundred points.
It strikes me that a full month has passed since my transmigration to this world. I hope future months continue in this peaceful pattern of training with Junior Sister—minus the near-death experiences, of course.
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Intermediate (50/300) (+50/300)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Intermediate (50/300) → Intermediate (100/300)]
Day 32 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
Junior Sister trained with exceptional intensity today. I struggled to match her pace, but my elevated battle intent statistics allowed me to keep up reasonably well, avoiding any embarrassment to my fellow transmigrators. The remainder of the day followed our established routine: training, cooking, more training, more cooking, and yet more training.
I’ve noticed Master and Martial Aunt seem increasingly close lately. Is a relationship truly developing between them? If so, I called it first! Considering my cooking played a pivotal role in bringing them together, I should rightfully claim some portion of any dowry exchanged.
After reset, my weapon techniques finally reached major success stage. While this progress is undeniably rapid, I can’t help feeling it could advance even faster.
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Intermediate (150/300) (+50/300)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Intermediate (150/300) → Major Success (0/400)]
Day 33 of Transmigrating to the Cultivation World:
After today’s reset, my Phantom Footwork technique broke through to the completion stage, significantly enhancing my mobility. More importantly, my Battle Instinct finally reached its maximum potential, transforming to [Battle Instinct: Mortal (100,000/100,000)].
The addition of "Mortal" suggests this attribute can be further developed, though my current cultivation level likely prevents access to higher tiers. While it’s somewhat disappointing that I can’t begin advancing to the next level immediately, the current battle intent already provides ample advantage against any threats I might reasonably encounter at this stage. As long as an invincible being that has existed for billions of years doesn’t come looking for me that is.
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Major Success (50/400) (+50/400)]
[Basic Weapon Techniques: Major Success (50/400) → Major Success (100/400)]
