Planning for the Future
Xue Bai picked two books from his bookshelf, one about his surrounding geography and another about the history of the Baishen Plane.
Xue Bai first picked up the book about his surrounding geography. While Xue Bai had explored the mortal world, he ignored almost every town and city. Since he only started exploring after reaching the peak of the world's cultivation. And whatever the towns could offer him, Xue Bai had a better version in his spatial ring.
While the book mostly re-confirmed many things he already knew, it was still worth the read as he had learned some things he had forgotten.
He lived on the Southern Continent, which was dominated by four major forces. The Great Xuan Empire, where he lived, and three sects.
While The Great Xuan Empire was the most dominant force on the continent, it couldn't kick out the others as they were the only branch sect from the central continent. So the three sects were only suppressed by the empire but were still allowed to recruit disciples.
However, one benefit that the three sects had over the empire was a passage to the central continent. Highly promising disciples were allowed to continue their cultivation on the central continent, which enabled the three sects to stand on equal footing with the empire.
His father was a Duke, so he would typically continue to serve The Great Xuan Empire. However, Xue Bai had higher aspirations. He wanted to ascend, not serve as a general, to a mere Spirit Awakening Realm Emperor. So he planned to join one of the three sects.
The three sects were Wushen Academy, a place where any type of cultivator could join as long as they had enough talent. Soaring Sword Sect was a sect that specialized in the sword, and only sword cultivators could enter. And the 100 Flowers sect, an all-girl sect.
Xue Bai planned to join the Soaring Sword Sect. His father was a famed swordsman throughout the entire continent. With his teaching, even a pig could become Sword Immortal, much less him.
The rest of the book was either unimportant or things he already knew, so he placed the geography book down and picked up the history book.
Xue Bai only skimmed through the history book while ignoring settlements in the Baishen. However, he was very involved in its story.
His primary purpose in picking up the book was to look at the history of cultivation to make sure what he knew was the same, which he quickly found true.
To cultivate, one needed something called Martial Veins. Marital Veins allow you to sense and absorb the Spiritual Qi in the air. They awakened in children ages 11-15, and if you didn't awaken them between those ages, you would never.

Martial Veins also had another variation. Besides the neutral version, there were also elemental versions that allowed the cultivator to control the respective element instead of the neutral Spiritual Qi. Because of the Elemental Variant's rarity, if a cultivator awakened an elemental version, they were looked at higher than its neutral counterpart.
Similar to The Four Great Realms in Cultivation, most items in the Baishen Plane were divided into four tiers, Yellow, Black, Earth, and Heaven, and they were further divided into Low, Middle, and High in each tier.
Most Cultivators on the Southern Continent had a Low and Middle Yellow Grade Martial Vein, while Peak geniuses had a Black Grade set. And if a young cultivator awakened an Elemental Martial Vein, they were instantly recognized as a genius.
So Xue Bai's predecessor, who never awakened any Martial Veins, and missed out on having the possibility of being a cultivator, took the opposite path and became a scholar. With his looks, education, and intelligence, he became a known scholar throughout The Great Xuan Empire.
But for a transmigrator, Xue Bai would never accept dying a mortal, making the problem of lack of Marital Veins his first major hurdle. So before anything else, he needed to find a treasure that could help him awaken martial veins when he came of age.
A calendar near his bookshelf showed the year 969, and Xue Bai's character was born in 962, so he still had four years before his 11th birthday, when he would undergo his first attempt at awakening his Martial Veins.
However, Xue Bai wanted to ascend, and to ascend, at the minimum, one needed an Earth-grade Martial Vein. Because without one, one would find it difficult to reach the higher stages in the Xiantian Great Realm, let alone get to the Immortal Great Realm.
However, if he wanted Earth Grade Martial Veins, he would have to find a treasure of at least High Earth Grade. And on his continent, there were only two such treasures from his knowledge.
However, they were both problematic. One was hidden in the Imperial Family's Monarch Tomb Secret Realm. And the other, which, while the other was readily available, he had to wait about three years before it ripened.
The first was only available in a secret realm that would only open 14 years from now, so that was off the table, leaving Xue Bai with the second option.
The treasure in question was a Low Heaven Tier Natural Treasure called the Celestial Void Fruit. Its special effect was creating a set of Low Heaven Tier Martial Veins of the spatial attribute. One rarest and strongest since of its unpredictability. But unbefitting of its power, it was currently growing in a small town just outside The Great Xuan Empire.
While it was far away from his Dukedom, his family was strong enough to take it away without anyone noticing. Since because of the spatial attribute, at the time of its ripening, the phenomenon that was released was a spatial pulse that no one below the Immortal Great Realm could notice. If it was in the Immortal Realm, this one fruit could cause countless casualties. However, since it was growing in this mortal world, it would be fed to him, a cripple.
Since he couldn't cultivate for the next four years and could only start his plan three years from now, Xue Bai placed his history book down and began writing down his plans for the next few years.
