To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

On top of a cliff on the hillside of Qingmu Peak, the secondary peak of Qingyun Sect, Sun Yi sat on a huge rock with a melancholy look on his face, staring blankly at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance.

Three days ago, Sun Yi's soul accidentally traveled from Earth and possessed a man with the same name and surname, occupying the body and integrating all of the man's memories.

At first, Sun Yi was surprised to find that he had traveled to a world of cultivating immortals. He thought that he could open up the best spiritual roots like the other travelers in novels, practice heaven-defying skills, sweep away his peers, and reach the pinnacle of life from then on.

But the cruel reality slapped Sun Yi hard in the face. After three days of comprehensive and careful research, Sun Yi felt that he had brought shame to his fellow time travelers in the novel.

He didn't have a super-natural cultivation system, nor did he have any amazing spiritual roots, nor did he have an invincible artifact that could ripen spiritual medicines, nor did he have an amazing background. This body was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary.

The talent of cultivators in this world is only related to the quality of their spiritual roots, and has nothing to do with the number of spiritual roots.

The worst talent is the low-grade spiritual roots, which have a slow cultivation speed and a very low chance of breaking through the foundation-building period. Because the difficulty of breaking through is extremely high, most immortal cultivation sects will not recruit disciples with low-grade spiritual roots. Above them are medium-grade spiritual roots, high-grade spiritual roots, and heavenly spiritual roots.

The Qingyun Sect encountered a great disaster and was short of manpower, so it absorbed a group of cultivators with low-grade spiritual roots.

Sun Yi possesses three spiritual roots of gold, wood and fire, but they are all of the lowest quality. Due to the lack of resources and powerful skills, it took him a full twenty years of practice to reach the third level of Qi Refining.

Even among the menial disciples of Qingyun Sect, Sun Yi is considered the worst one. He is not valued and is insignificant. The only value of his existence is to be exploited, just like those 996 office workers on Earth.

If nothing unexpected happens, someone like him will end up being just like everyone else, and it would be considered a good ending if he can live to old age. However, from the fused memories, he knows the cruelty of the cultivation world. The lives of low-level cultivators are worse than dogs, and it is almost impossible to live peacefully to old age. Under normal circumstances, a scum like him can only passively accept his fate.

But Sun Yi is a top student from Earth after all. In order not to embarrass his Chinese compatriots on Earth, Sun Yi decided to work hard to rescue this bleak life of cultivation and strive to pursue the so-called immortality.

Are you kidding? Sun Yi is a man on earth who can’t even be crushed by decades of mortgage, car loan, and consumer loan. What’s a mere predicament to him?

But how can I change this shitty cultivation life?

Do I have to leave Qingyun Sect and venture out into the world, looking for an opportunity that will defy fate?

Haha, this thought was immediately extinguished by Sun Yi as soon as it arose.

From the fused memories, it was learned that the place where Qingyun Sect was located was Luan Yao County, where monsters were rampant and evil cultivators were everywhere. Not to mention a scum like Sun Yi who was at the third level of Qi Refining and had a combat power of only five, even a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage might die in minutes if he walked outside.

Sun Yi didn't believe that he was the protagonist of a story where he could pick up incredible treasures while walking. He only had one life and couldn't waste it carelessly.

If this path doesn't work, then I can only find a way within the sect. However, I am just a menial disciple with no talent, no skills, no background, no treasures, and even less strength. It is too difficult for me to make a name for myself.

Everyone sang that hope lies in the fields, but Sun Yi felt that he could only reach the ridges of the fields, and there was still a chasm between him and the fields. There was no hope for his cultivation in life.

Is there really no way?

Just when Sun Yi was deep in thought, suddenly three loud bell sounds came from the main peak and echoed throughout the Qingyun Sect. Sun Yi knew that the bell sounds meant that something big was happening in the Qingyun Sect, but it seemed to have nothing to do with a menial disciple like him.

I continued to be lost in thought, and I didn't know how long it had been before I was suddenly awakened by a shout.

"Lao Sun, you are hiding here again. I have been looking for you for a long time. Come with me quickly!" A thin young man wearing a tattered servant's robe ran over quickly from a distance.

"Ergouzi, why are you looking for me? Haven't I finished my work for today?" Sun Yi looked at Ergouzi with confusion, who had an anxious face.

This Ergouzi, like Sun Yi, is also a menial disciple of Qingyun Sect. His aptitude is comparable to Sun Yi's, and his cultivation is only at the third level of Qi Refining. He manages the Qingmu Peak's medicinal garden together with Sun Yi. Because they share the same suffering, they have a very good relationship.

"Stop talking nonsense and follow me quickly. If you are any later, Manager Wang will get angry!" Ergouzi pulled Sun Yi away without saying a word.

"What happened that's so urgent?" Sun Yi looked puzzled.

Er Gouzi asked without turning his head, "Did you hear the bell from the main peak just now?"

"I'm not deaf, of course I heard it, but what does this have to do with us menial disciples?"

Er Gouzi quickly explained, "I heard from Manager Wang that our ancestor will come out of seclusion the day after tomorrow and will be selecting the new leader of our Qingyun Sect. Therefore, we, the menial disciples, will be responsible for cleaning the sect."

"Elect a new leader?" Sun Yi was stunned. Then he remembered that Qingyun Sect had indeed not had a leader in the past twenty years since it moved to Luanyao County. Because the sect's only ancestor in the early Nascent Soul stage was in seclusion to recuperate, the sect's affairs were completely in the charge of the five Jindan stage elders.

If Ergouzi hadn't mentioned it, Sun Yi would have almost forgotten about it.

"Yeah, I don't know who the ancestor will choose to be the new leader. I heard that the five Jindan-stage elders are all eyeing that position. Whoever becomes the leader will be able to reach the top in one step. I'm so envious!" Ergouzi sighed as he walked.

His words exploded in Sun Yi's mind like a thunderclap. Sun Yi froze in place for a moment, then suddenly slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "Yes, if I become the leader of Qingyun Sect, wouldn't that be a step up? Can't I choose good skills at will? Can't I use good resources at will? Can't I easily get good girls... Uh, this won't do. I'm a gentleman."

Er Gouzi turned around and looked at Sun Yi as if he was a fool. "What did you just say? Are you the leader of Qingyun Sect?"

Sun Yi nodded seriously. "Yes, if I become the new leader of Qingyun Sect, wouldn't that be a leap to heaven? I could then practice the sect's top techniques and freely use the sect's cultivation resources. Just thinking about it would be so cool. And as the saying goes, if one person succeeds, everyone else will benefit. If I become the new leader, wouldn't you be able to turn things around too?"

Er Gouzi took two steps forward and slapped Sun Yi in the face.

Sun Yi immediately glared at Er Gouzi and cursed, "Fuck you, why did you hit me?"

Er Gouzi rolled his eyes at Sun Yi and said, "I'm just trying to wake you up. What are you daydreaming about in broad daylight? You still want to be the new leader? Don't you even look at your own appearance? Besides, I'm not some chicken or dog! If you want to ascend to heaven, you have to ascend by yourself!"

Sun Yi touched his handsome face and said seriously, "Am I not handsome enough?"

Er Gouzi immediately wanted to slap Sun Yi, the bitch, a few more times, but thought better of it and hurriedly urged him, "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. If you keep Manager Wang waiting too long, we'll suffer. Oh, and don't talk nonsense when you're the Sect Leader. Otherwise, I won't be able to help you if you get into trouble."

After saying that, Ergouzi turned around and left.

Sun Yi quickly chased after him, grinning: "As a human being, you must always have dreams. Otherwise, what's the difference between you and salted fish?"

Er Gouzi sneered without even turning his head. "Please first distinguish between dreams and fantasies. Don't tell others about your fantasies, or else I'll be treated as a fool."

Fool?

Sun Yi smiled. Previously, Sun Yi felt that his cultivation life was almost hopeless, but now Sun Yi decided that he was going to play a big game and compete for the position of the new leader of Qingyun Sect the day after tomorrow. He would seek wealth and honor through risk and try to turn his bicycle into a motorcycle.
