Sitting on his chair, Ji Xian looked at the sky. Unknowingly it has become dark again. A river of stars stretched across the Southern Continent illuminating the snow falling from above. Along with an ocean that goes as far as the eyes can see, reflecting that glittering light, this is the most beautiful place that Ji Xian has ever seen.

“Even on Earth, there weren’t many places that can compare to this.” He said trying to recall a few places from his memories.

But soon after, he shook his head with a bitter smile.

His new life is here now. There is no point in dwelling on the past.

Ji Xian stood up and walked inside the wooden house. The Interior was simple. A living room, a kitchen, and a bedroom. He went to the living room and waved his hand.

A small cauldron standing on its three bronze legs appeared.

He casually threw it in the air and it enlarged to almost two meters tall, landing in the middle of the room.

Sitting right before the cauldron Ji Xian touched his chin and pondered how to make the pills for those junior brothers and sisters of his. He closed his eyes and instantly thousands upon thousands of experiments took place in his mind in an instant.

“Got it.”

Ji Xian opened his eyes and smiled.

He threw all the materials inside the spatial pouch given to him by Yan Lian into the cauldron and at the same time, a clear white flame emerged, wrapping around the cauldron. Just the heat it produces would scare even the peak experts of this world. If it weren’t for Ji Xian protecting the room with his essence, the house would’ve already burned to ashes!

What’s also shocking was the method that Ji Xian’s used to make the pills. Is he not afraid of burning all the materials with this intense heat?

“1…2…3. Done!”

Ji Xian waved his sleeve and the cauldron lid flew up. Five beautiful pills of different colors floated in the air.

Rumble!

At the same time Ji Xian finished making the pills, a terrifying aura appeared in the sky! Dark Clouds formed atop his house and lightning can be seen flickering about accompanied by the roar of thunder, threatening to destroy something that should not exist.

Ji Xian felt this and left the house with the five pills hovering above his palm.

Crackle!

A thick, snake-like lightning bolt suddenly shot down, aiming at the pills!

Just as it was about to hit his hand, he moved! Allowing the lightning to hit his body instead. His face unchanged, he continued to block the next eight lightning bolts. Each time it aimed for the pills in his hand, he would slightly shift, allowing it to strike his body instead. The entire process only took a minute before the clouds dispersed.

In a large hall, the Sect Master of the Aether Sect was having a meeting with the elders of the sect, discussing some important matters. Sensing the terrifying aura, they immediately stood up with solemn expressions ready to take action.

However, the aura suddenly disappeared not long after, leaving them at a loss.

The Sect Master thought for a second “That came from the north, it should be his doing.”

Their expression relaxed upon hearing this before sitting back down to continue their previous discussion and wondering what a certain someone is doing. They weren't at all worried because that certain someone is Ji Xian. Although they haven't known him for too long, seemingly anything can be solved with him around.

Walking back inside the house as though nothing happened, Ji Xian took a closer look at the five different colored pills. Other than their colorful appearance, they look completely normal. Inside the pill, however, Ji Xian can see how incredibly potent they are respective to their elements.

“Not bad. If only the grade of the materials were higher.. nevertheless this should be enough since their cultivation isn't high.”

“What should I do now?”

Thanks to Ji Xian’s “talent” he was able to make the five elements pill easily. After arriving in this world he discovered that his mind is like a supercomputer, no beyond that. He can run endless simulations and think of a myriad of different scenarios to deal with a problem inside his mind!

Ji Xian was underwhelmed at first, after all, as great as it is, it still has limitations. The MC in novels that he had read in the past would usually have overpowered cheats or a system, yet all he has is a simulation! It was only a couple of months later that he found out how useful his talent is!

“I guess I’ll cultivate, unfortunately, I'm having trouble simulating the next perfect realm..”

He walked outside, sat on his favorite chair, and closed his eyes. All the while the snow continued falling and the ocean crashed against the cliff.

————————

Shui Que, Jin Xue, and Yan Lian are currently walking around the sect, discussing how much the sect has changed in four years. Due to their appearance, they were drawing looks from the surrounding Aether Sect disciples.

“Who are those three girls? They’re so beautiful.”

“You must be new, the girl in the red and gold robe with her hair tied up in a ponytail is Yan Lian. She is a direct disciple of the Sect Master. The girl in the silver robe with the sword hanging by her waist is Jin Xue. It is rumored she was born with an unparalleled Sword Heart. Lastly, the girl in the blue robe is Shui Que. She is from the Shui Clan in the eastern domain.”

“This is my first time hearing of them.”

“Hehe, that’s not surprising. They left the sect four years ago to travel around the Southern Continent, no one knows why and they only just recently returned. They made quite a name for themselves in those four years.”

“Haven’t you been to the Ranking Hall? Jin Xue, Yan Lian, and Shui Que always rank within the top five of the Earth Hall Ranking.

As the disciples discussed among themselves, the girls were talking about Ji Xian.

Filled with energy, Yan Lian skipped as she walked.

“Doesn’t Senior Brother Ji Xian look even more handsome than four years ago?” She asked.

Shui Que blushed and nodded

“We have traveled around the Southern Continent and I don't think we met anyone as handsome as Senior Brother Ji Xian,” said Jin Xue seriously while also nodding.

Yan Lian suddenly turned around and grabbed Jin Xue’s face with both her hands.

“Senior Sister Jin Xue, Senior Brother won’t like it if you walk around with a serious expression on your face all the time. We are no longer outside, you can loosen up a little.”

Jin Xue was startled by Yan Lian’s action and became dazed hearing Yan Lian’s words.

“Junior Sister Yan Lian, this is who I am. Senior Brother would not want me to change.” Jin Xue said after thinking for a moment.

Speechless, Yan Lian said nothing more.

As they passed by the scripture hall, they saw two familiar figures. Yan Lian pointed and said, “Look! There’s Senior brother Mu Zhen and Senior Brother Tu Wei!”

The three girls walked over and greeted them.

“Senior Brothers, what are you doing here?” Asked Yan Lian.

“Tu Wei wanted to look for a new movement art.” Replied Mu Zhen

Tu Wei shook his head disappointedly, “Unfortunately, compared to the movement art that Senior Brother Ji Xian gave us four years ago before we left the sect, the ones in the first three floors of the scripture hall paled in comparison.”

The five of them are the top geniuses of the sect that has been nurtured by Ji Xian, so they were given permission to learn any art they want within the first three floors. No merits are needed.

The five talked a little more before going back to their immortal caves. They were eager to see their Senior Brother again but he told them to come back in a week. Time felt slow and the only way to speed it up is to cultivate!

A week later.

The five of them arrived before the wooden house and a familiar figure can be seen sitting on the chair. It didn’t seem like he moved at all since they last met.

Ji Xian slowly opened his eyes and was greeted by the five youths.

“Greetings Senior Brother Ji Xian!” They saluted

Ji Xian raised his eyebrow.

“Don’t need to be so formal, just a casual hello would do.”

He stared at them for a while, looking up and down until they started to feel uncomfortable by Ji Xian’s sharp gaze.

“Hmm, I didn’t notice before but the five of you look terrible.”

!

“Tu Wei, when was the last time you wash your hair? And Yan Lian, you can do better than a ponytail. Not that there’s any wrong with it. Mu Zhen, look at your robe…”

Hearing Ji Xian criticized their appearances, the five were dumbfounded. The girls are especially downcast while the two boys were just speechless.

Seeing that Ji Xian didn’t have any intention to stop, Mu Zhen, the oldest of the five, gather the courage to step up.

“Senior Brother, we are cultivators! External appearance is secondary compared to an individual’s prowess.

Ji Xian nodded.

“What you say is true, you can look homeless all you want outside the sect but when you’re here I want you to look your best. I don’t get a lot of visitors so when I have visitors I want them to at least look pleasing to the eyes.”

“Homeless?”

Mu Zhen and the others look at themselves up and down and didn’t know what to say.

“Tu Wei! Come here and let me give you a haircut.”

“Uhh..but Senior Brother I like my hair like this..”

“Come here”

“…Yes.”
