Taro's eyes sparkled with excitement as he received a notification from the system.

"Congratulations, Taro! You've mastered Black Hole. As a reward, we're giving you... a cultivation room!"

A sleek, high-tech door materialized before him, revealing a room filled with an incredibly dense, swirling mist.

Taro's curiosity got the better of him. "System, why the fancy room?"

The system's response was unexpected: "Honestly? The author wants to wrap up this novel quickly. You're moving too slowly for their taste."

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

Taro's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, what? You're talking about the author? Like, the person writing this story?"

Suddenly, a booming voice echoed through the room: "OI! YOU BROKE THE 4TH WALL AGAIN! FIX IT, SYSTEM! AND Taro, stop meta-referencing, it's getting old!"

The system hastily responded, "Ah, sorry about that! Let's just say... the room is a special gift to help you cultivate faster. Yeah, that's it."

Taro chuckled, shaking his head. "Alright, alright. I won't ask any more questions."

With a grin, Taro stepped into the cultivation room. The system's voice echoed behind him.

"Remember, Taro, 100 days in this room is equivalent to 1 day outside. Make the most of it! And try not to break the 4th wall again, okay?"

Taro nodded, already focusing on his cultivation. The dense mist enveloped him, and he began to absorb its energy.

Days passed, and Taro's progress was astounding. He broke through to the Incarnation Late stage, his power surging to unprecedented heights.

As he cultivated, Taro couldn't help but wonder what other surprises the system and the author had in store for him.
