I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 3 Introduction to the Fundamentals of Daoist Observation and Ancient Languages ​​of Foreign Peoples

With these thoughts in mind, Li Yan's eyes glazed over as he gazed at the system panel.

The panel is very simple, with a hosting interface and two small categories on the side, labeled "Cultivation Methods" and "Skills".

Below the technique, the junior high school physics textbook I just read is displayed, something about observing the principles of the Tao.

Li Yan wanted to see how the system would make him master the physics textbook!

Since it's being managed by someone else, it shouldn't be anything to him.

So he immediately clicked the physics book icon below the skills bar on the side.

[Ding! You have selected the skill "Introduction to the Fundamentals of Dao Observation II". Please set the hosting duration.]

Li Yan randomly selected five minutes.

"Initiating managed cultivation. A friendly reminder: During managed cultivation, the host will temporarily lose control of their body. Please do not panic."

As the system's cold voice fell, Li Yan felt himself uncontrollably open the physics book on the table and start flipping through it.

Chapter Thirteen Internal Energy
Section 1 Molecular Thermal Motion
The composition of matter.
Lines of familiar yet unfamiliar sentences came into view.

Li Yan: ? ? ? ?

Are you cultivating immortality? Is this how immortals cultivate?
Li Yan mentally complained, but as the system controlled his eyes to read, a strange yet uncomfortable feeling arose in his heart again.

It felt like something thick and heavy was being forcibly stuffed into my body.

It was a little uncomfortable at first, but then it not only stopped hurting, but it also became somewhat addictive.

I feel like I've been forcefully struck by knowledge!
Those abstract concepts flowed into my mind as my gaze swept across them, and through a wondrous process, they were easily absorbed and understood.

A feeling of becoming stronger welled up inside me.

But Li Yan still felt it was a bit abstract!
Reading books doesn't seem to have anything to do with cultivating immortality, does it?
Is this system trying to save face because it knows it's bound to the wrong world?
Regardless of the system, he actually managed to understand physics.

You know, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he has zero experience right now!

At this moment, he recalled his expectation of being reborn!
Damn it, I actually came here to study properly!!

"Alright, did you all understand? If you did, I'll move on to the next question. But before I move on to the next question, I want to talk about a few students!"

Wang Fugui's suddenly louder voice interrupted Li Yan's train of thought.

Li Yan noticed Wang Fugui glancing at him a few times, then chuckled and swept his gaze across the room, saying:
“Some students don’t listen attentively in class and do other things all the time. With your half-baked skills, how can you possibly understand anything on your own? You might as well enroll in a class.”

In the class, a few students who weren't interested in physics looked up and quieted down a bit.

In the front seat, Jiang Yingzhu, who was daydreaming outside, suddenly heard words she could understand. She sat up straight instantly and instinctively stood up, wanting to run outside.

But then I suddenly realized that everyone was sitting properly, and the homeroom teacher was standing on the podium with the test papers in hand.

"Hey haha, I'm getting a little sleepy sitting here, teacher, let me stand up for a bit to wake myself up."

Jiang Yingzhu scratched her head, sticking out a few strands of hair, looking rather silly.

"Yes! That's right. Jiang Yingzhu's self-discipline is something we should all learn from."

Wang Fugui nodded and shook the test paper in his hand.

"Let's continue."

The next second, Jiang Yingzhu sat down directly. Some people looked at the homeroom teacher, but the homeroom teacher did not make a move.

Just kidding, Uncle Jiang is his son's high school principal, what would he dare to do?
Besides, Xiao Jiang is admitted through a special sports program. As long as he performs normally in the high school entrance exam, he's guaranteed to get into high school.

A stable and worry-free performance.

He's much better than some of the students in the class who neither attend classes nor strive for improvement.

Behind Jiang Yingzhu, Li Yan was still under trusteeship, and the first part of the internal energy test had already been watched.

Li Yan gradually started to get a little bored.

He discovered that the process of knowledge being digested by the brain seemed to require no action from him.

It's like a massage; while enjoying the comfortable feeling, the person being massaged can also do other things.

For example, tapping on the car headlights or something.

Of course, Li Yan couldn't do any of that; he could only let his mind wander.

He glanced at Wang Fugui, who took half a minute to finish a single sentence.

This guy wasn't even speaking seriously!

Li Yan remembered listening to his classmates who had attended Wang Fugui's tutoring class boast about their achievements after graduating from junior high school in his previous life.

Normally, the homework and tests that Wang Fugui assigns would take him two or three class periods to explain in class, but in the tutoring class, he could finish explaining them in just one class period.

And it explains it even more thoroughly!

At the time, many people in the class felt powerless about this matter.

Li Yan heard that when the previous graduating class was in their final year of junior high, Wang Fugui even secretly indulged those students in tutoring classes, bullying those in the class who didn't attend tutoring classes and had honest personalities.

Later I heard that one day a student rushed up to the podium with a knife during his class and almost chopped the bastard up with one blow!
From then on, Wang Fugui became much more restrained, but nothing much happened.

Students graduate normally, he teaches normally, and tutoring classes continue as usual.

However, the school has added another rule—knives are prohibited, and school bags must be checked once a week.

In response, Li Yan could only say that this was truly a school.

He couldn't bring himself to charge with a knife like that senior from the previous year.

It hasn't gotten to that point yet!
Moreover, someone like Wang Fugui, who still dared to get tutoring after that incident, clearly showed that that method couldn't cure him.

If it were the original Li Yan, he would have no choice but to put up with this person's disgusting behavior.

But it's different now.

He has a better idea!

The prerequisite is that you can get the top score in the city in the high school entrance examination.

It might be of some use.

[Management service has ended. Thank you for using our services.]

The system notification pulled Li Yan back from his wandering thoughts, and he realized that he had just finished reading chapter thirteen.

He closed his eyes and tried to recall the key points of this chapter in his mind.

The basic tenets of the kinetic theory of molecules include the fact that matter is composed of a large number of molecules and atoms, and that molecules are in constant, random motion.
The definitions of internal energy and specific heat capacity are relevant; for example, the specific heat capacity of water is 4.2 × 10⁻⁶ J/(kg·℃).
He remembered and understood it all!
"Try doing a few questions."

Li Yan flipped through his workbook and found the relevant questions.

I took out my pen and started writing, then checked the answers.

It seems to be slightly better than my original level.

He could sense that when he was in junior high school, he used to find physics formulas and those abstract letters very difficult.

It's not easy to remember, let alone understand.

But now I not only remember it, I also understand it!

Yes, there are some!

Some of the complex calculations and thought processes are still unclear.

Perhaps further training within the system is needed?
With that in mind, he immediately resumed the trusteeship.

After glancing at the time, Li Yan set the class time to end. He once again immersed himself in the ocean of knowledge, freely reveling in its wonders.

It feels so good to be comfortable without having to do anything yourself.

"Ding ding ding ding!"

The bell rang sharply, signaling the end of get out of class.

"That's all for today. Students who want to enroll in the intensive course, come to my office."

The office was right next to Class 3, so Wang Fugui didn't stay in the classroom and left directly.

Li Yan, on the other hand, was just released from the trusteeship.

He yawned, feeling a bit hungry. He checked his pockets; he didn't have a single penny.

Li Yan remembered that he didn't often have pocket money in junior high school.

Jiang Yingzhu, sitting in the front seat, turned around, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Li Yan, you look so tired after just one class. Hmm~ Did you go out and do something naughty last night?"

"hehe."

"Heh my foot! Are you going to enroll in Wang Gou's tutoring classes?"

"I suggest you rephrase your statement."

Wang Fugui had become overweight in middle age, his face was sagging and swollen, his nose was dark, and his eye bags were heavy, making him look a bit like an old fat dog.

That's how it got its nickname.

Li Yan ignored her, put away his physics book, and took out his English book according to the daily schedule in the corner of the blackboard.

This is the last class. You can go home for dinner after this one.

The moment his palm touched the English book, unsurprisingly, the system notification sounded again.

[Ding! Detected the profession book "Introduction to Ancient Languages ​​of Other Races", unlocking the immortal profession: Speaker]

The Speaker is responsible for communicating with humanoid civilizations outside the Tianxuan Continent and is protected by human merit.

【Do you entrust the cultivation of the Siyan profession skill books?】

The incessant system notifications left Li Yan completely bewildered.

They even unlocked a new profession?

Si Yan? A diplomat or a translator?!

But that doesn't seem important; what's important is that English can also be improved.
However, the system categorizes English as a foreign language and also classifies it as belonging to a humanoid civilization.

This really made it difficult for Li Yan to keep his composure!
Seeing that his younger brother was ignoring him, Jiang Yingzhu secretly prepared to untie the shoelaces that were hanging from his ankles on the crossbar of the desk.

However, he noticed that Li Yan was staring blankly at him.

This made Jiang Yingzhu feel a little uncomfortable.

She waited for a while, and the man continued to stare.

Jiang Yingzhu snorted, "You think I won't dare just because you're looking at me?"

Without saying a word, she reached out and untied the shoelaces of both shoes.

"Hmm~, all done."

Jiang Yingzhu clapped her hands, tilted her head and stared at Li Yan for a moment, then suddenly smiled slyly, pushed off the ground with one foot, and shot out the door like an arrow.

"Hehe, you can't catch me!"

"childish."

After Li Yan finished speaking, he saw Xiao Qingmei peek out and glare at him.

Shaking his head, Li Yan looked at the English book in his hand, feeling puzzled.

The first thing he held in his hand was the Chinese textbook that preceded the physics class.

But the system did not provide any notification at that time.

Are Chinese language textbooks neither exercises, skills, nor professional skills?
Unable to figure out the reason, he stopped thinking about it and started tutoring English.

Li Yan only wants to study now; he's fallen in love with that refreshing feeling!

The childcare period lasts ten minutes until class begins.

The English teacher was a woman in her forties or fifties, her face etched with the marks of time.

Unlike the common descriptions of English teachers in some books—

Young, beautiful, and rich.

Li Yan couldn't understand anything except "class" and "Stand up".

So they simply handed it over to the system for learning.

Oh no, it's cultivation!

As he practiced, he was surprised to find that he could understand some of what his English teacher said.

Although it's only a small part.

Those grammatical tenses and the like still leave me dizzy.

But this is undoubtedly a small step toward success.

But in the eyes of the English teacher, Li Yan was undoubtedly blatantly slacking off and flipping through the book randomly.

So, unsurprisingly, he was called upon.
“Li Yan, Grandma Seto.”

Someone sat in their seat with a serious expression, flipping through an English book.

Under the watchful eyes of the entire class, he acted like an arrogant spoiled brat, showing no regard for the old woman whatsoever.

"Li Yan, stand up and answer my question!" The English teacher narrowed her eyes and said again.

The person remained nonchalant and ignored it.

The students were amazed, and the Wangs in the back row were even more as if they had seen a god.

"Why is Li Yan so stubborn? Does he want to be punished by the teacher to memorize ten essays?"

"Li—! Yan—!!"

The English teacher said again, "Stand up, did you hear me?"

Seeing that the old woman was angry, Jiang Yingzhu was very anxious and bumped the table to signal him to stop pretending.

At least get up and say you hurt your foot.

The table shook from the impact, hitting Li Yan. He was anxiously trying to get the system to unload its hosting service without success when he suddenly heard a notification sound.

[Ding, external attack detected, sperm detected.]

Li Yan didn't have time to listen to what the system was going to say next; he instinctively stood up.

Immediately afterwards, everything went black before my eyes, and I collapsed onto the table with a thud.

　New author, new book! Please read, add to your favorites, and recommend!
