A Writer's Transmigration With A System

Li Jiwen was sitting in an inn in a city within the heart of the province, eating while listening to the people all around speaking about something.

"Have you heard of the auction that is going to be held within the capital of the province in the next couple of weeks?"

"Yeah, I’ve heard of it. They say it’ll have a couple of things of the Soul Transformation realm, as well as tons of things that are very important to Nascent Soul cultivators as well."

"Well, that is nothing of concern to us. What are a couple of Foundation Establishment cultivators gonna do there? Get killed or get followed and plundered by someone. Don’t even think about it."

"Well, it’s good to think about things that we cannot reach, don’t you think?"

Li Jiwen listened while eating.

He thought, ’Well, that’s interesting. Things of the Soul Transformation realm. These things are not really out there most of the time, especially in a small province like this where there are only five or six Soul Transformation cultivators.’

’This is a far away and really small province within the kingdom, so not really many powerful cultivators are here.’

’Especially thinking about the scope of ten realms entirely, people of the sixth realm are not really that powerful in the entirety of the world of cultivation.’

He stopped to take a couple of sips of juice, then continued.

’The most important thing at the moment is just to get myself into that auction and see if I can actually manipulate the people to plunder everything with the least amount of spiritual stones possible. A smart, calculated scheme, but not too excessive.’

’Well, think about it. I have only heard and read of auctions in the cultivation novels that I used to read, but hell, I haven’t even gotten into one in the past year that I have been in this world for.’

Yes, an entire year had already passed.

Li Jiwen had plundered more than 200 cultivators, whether from the Nascent Soul Realm or the Golden Core Realm.

All of them were nothing compared to his powers, especially with the Asura Blade that was still sealed, and with his powers at the Great Perfection stage as well.

The only people above him were those of the Great Perfection stage who were older and more experienced, as well as the six Soul Transformation cultivators in this province.

So he could actually be said to have powers greater than most.

But what can that even mean in the face of a heavenly catastrophe? A calamity that claims lives without fail.

The man finally decided that this time he would go to that auction.

Suddenly, as he was sitting at his table, he heard some commotion from a far away table.

Two young cultivators of the Foundation Establishment realm were fighting with another three cultivators of the Foundation Establishment realm.

Li Jiwen did not care too much and continued to eat.

Then suddenly the fighting began to intensify, and a stray spell came his way.

A fire spear almost pierced his face. He just moved his hand and slapped it away with the back of his hand, not really caring.

An attack of this calibre could not even hurt his skin, let alone his body.

Suddenly the fighting stopped as they saw someone nullifying an attack with the back of their hand.

This was an attack of the Great Perfection stage in the Foundation Establishment realm.

Most people here could not even take it with the most powerful defenses they had, and this man just nullified it with the back of his hand.

Li Jiwen did not care and just sipped another sip from his cup.

Then he looked at the fighting and said, "If you want to fight, fight outside."

The five people who were fighting nodded and said, "Yes, senior. Yes, senior. We are sorry. Please spare us."

Li Jiwen nodded and moved his hand as if to shoo them away, and the five people just got outside and continued fighting.

All the people within the inn looked at him with reverence, but he didn’t care too much and continued eating and drinking.

After finishing everything on the table, he left a couple of golden coins, then moved out.

The commotion within the inn was loud.

"Hell, is that a Nascent Soul cultivator? Damn, a literal overlord of a sect, what is he doing in this place?"

"I have never seen his face before or heard anything about him. Who is he?"

The innkeeper did not know what to say.

He had knowledge of most Nascent Soul cultivators within the province, but he had never seen an old looking, frail man of the Nascent Soul realm before.

This was a new cultivator of the Nascent Soul realm.

He connected with his own network and began to spread the news to every information house within the province.

Thus, the one knowledge of the old Nascent Soul cultivator with no name had already begun to spread in the next couple of days.

But Li Jiwen did not care too much. This was just another face of his that he used.

As he knew exactly what to do and how to behave, he had known that showing his real face was not a very smart thing to do, so he decided against it entirely.

A smart and cunning cultivator survives, and the stupid ones die early.

This was the law of the world of cultivation, and he knew it exactly after living in this world for a year and writing for more than seven years in his own world and reading thousands upon thousands of cultivation novels.

This was accumulated knowledge and accumulated experience.

A smart man hides, uses things from the shadows, and saves himself the trouble.

A stupid man is the one who flamboyantly goes and tries to sweep the entirety of the world of cultivation with one move.

This was the difference between survival and suicide.
