One, Orthodox Transmission System

  Bai Yu is now a small employee in a small company, living an ordinary life that can't be more ordinary. Every day is just going to work, eating and sleeping, because he looks average and has no economic foundation, so he hasn't even had a girlfriend yet. Often looking at others who are in pairs, he can't help but feel envious, and he has also been on many blind dates, but this society is realistic, without economic security, no one will give their second half of life to you, so the outcome is always tragic.

  "Bai Yu, how about we go grab a couple of drinks after work?" said Li Xiao Feng, their relationship was quite good, he was Bai Yu's only close friend in this small company. He was now smiling and tempting Bai Yu.

  Bai Yu hesitated and said, "We still have to go to work tomorrow, so it's not good to drink too much. I remember last time we drank together and I skipped work, then got scolded by the boss until I was half dead." He still vividly remembered the look in his boss's eyes that day.

  "What's there to be afraid of? At worst, we'll just drink a little less today." Li Xiaofeng continued to egg him on.

  "Alright, but control yourself a bit." Being able to occasionally drink with friends and communicate emotions is also a way to alleviate work pressure, so I agreed.

  It wasn't until Bai Yu started drinking with Li Xiao Feng that he realized it was a wrong choice. As soon as Li Xiao Feng saw the wine, he forgot about their previous conversation. He accompanied Li Xiao Feng in drinking till the end, and his consciousness became blurry, unable to distinguish east from west.

  On the way home, Bai Yu's consciousness was muddled and he didn't even know how he got back to his rented small house. He fell onto the bed without even taking off his clothes and fell into a deep sleep. At this time, he couldn't have known that from outside, a purple light like a shooting star flew in from afar and landed on the window by his bedside. It passed through the glass as if there was no obstruction, hitting him right between the eyebrows, and then disappeared into his body.

  That green light entered his mind and quickly browsed through the information in his brain. A faint, ethereal voice sounded: "Collecting data... Data collection complete. End of Dharma era, inheritance of Taoism, generation of Taoist inheritance system... Generation complete." "Organizing data... Organization complete. Checking host's basic information, check successful, due to host's drunkenness and inability to wake up, the system automatically recognizes the host."

  Bai Yu slowly came to from his dazed state, opening his eyes to find himself on a golden yellow ground. The cool air seemed to dissipate some of the alcohol in his body. However, he was shocked and suddenly jumped up from the ground. What kind of place was this? Looking around, he saw that it was a huge golden palace. In the hall stood eight giant golden pillars, with carved dragons and phoenixes that looked very majestic. At the top, there was a throne, about ten feet off the ground, with nine golden dragons coiled on top of it, seeming to come alive and emitting an intimidating aura that made Bai Yu break out in cold sweat. He exclaimed in shock: "Where is this? How did I end up here?"

  A faint voice echoed beside his ear, "This is the internal space of the Daoist inheritance system, welcome to the host's arrival." Bai Yu was even more shocked at this time, shouting: "Who is it? Come out quickly and stop pretending to be a ghost!"

  However, there was no response for half a day. Bai Yu waited for about ten minutes, but there was no response, and he couldn't help but feel anxious. Could this be the legendary kidnapping? But what could he possibly kidnap? He had just said something, "The internal space of the Daoist inheritance system"? Bai Yu's eyes suddenly widened, a system? Isn't that something from a novel? Looking at the palace again, it seemed unlikely that any kidnapper would have such a place as their base. So, he cleared his throat and cautiously asked: "System?" A faint voice drifted in like a gentle breeze: "Yes, host." Bai Yu was overjoyed, but still cautiously asked: "What functions do you have?" As soon as the words left his lips, a virtual display screen slowly appeared in front of him.

  Host: White feather

  Age: 23 years old

  Bloodline: Human Tribe

  Physical Strength: 5 [Average of Earthlings is 5]

  Spiritual Power: None

  Skills 【Techniques】: None

  Legal instrument: None

  Soul [Yuanshen] Strength: 7 [The average for Earthlings is 5. The host has been modified by the system, so it's 7].

  There are some options below, "Hengsha World Crossing Options", "Small World Crossing Options", "Large World Crossing Options", "Dao Dian Exchange Category", "Fa Qi Exchange Category" and so on. Next to it is a numerical column displaying: "100."

  "Am I supposed to travel through these worlds and do tasks or something?" "Yes, host." "Oh" Bai Yu pointed at the number curiously: "What's this?" The system replied in a voice that was both emotionless and ethereal: "That is the exchange points you currently possess, host. It can be used to quickly learn various spells or exchange for various magical treasures."

  Bai Yu's heart was filled with joy, and he couldn't wait to learn more about this Dao inheritance system. "Can I exchange now?" he asked. "You can, but I still hope the host will wait a little longer," the system said.

  "Why?" Bai Yu asked, puzzled. "The host can first select a suitable world to enter, and then choose to exchange based on the situation," the system replied. Bai Yu suddenly realized that there must be unknown dangers in these worlds. If he exchanged something unimportant impulsively, and this space had some mandatory regulations that forced him to go to those worlds, it would be too late to cry. It's better to ask clearly. So he asked: "System, how often can I select a world, and how do I get the exchange points?"

  The system replied, "The world lottery is generally drawn once every seven days. The exchange points can be obtained in the world and can be exchanged for items or received after completing tasks." Bai Yu asked again, "Then... how does the world lottery work? Is it random or self-selected?" "The system will draw a suitable world based on the host's own situation."

  Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat, wanting to randomly select a world, perhaps hoping to see the exchanged items. He asked again: "Will we enter the selected world immediately after drawing?" "No, the host will be given 10 minutes of preparation time." Bai Yu let out a sigh of relief and walked in front of the virtual display screen. However, he didn't randomly select a world first, but instead opened the Dao Dictionary exchange category.

  Only a virtual screen flickered and gradually solidified, revealing three categories: "Mortal", "Immortal" and "Sacred". Bai Yu suppressed his excitement about the Sacred category and opened the Mortal one. He still had some self-awareness, knowing that these 100 exchange points wouldn't allow him to ascend to heaven in one step. The screen switched, but before looking at the categories above, Bai Yu said to the system: "System, list out the items I can currently exchange for."

  Mao Shan Basic Techniques: The above records the methods of practicing Mao Shan basic techniques. With practice, one can condense thin magical powers and have a remarkable effect on ordinary small ghosts. For old ghosts within 100 years, there is some effect, but for those over 100 years, it has no effect. It can be used to deal with general low-level zombies, but if they have any weather control techniques, it will not work. Self-practice exchange points: 100 points, rapid mastery: 500 points.

  Taoist Foundation Breathing Method: After mastering it, you can condense thin Fa Li. It is said that this method was created by a high-ranking Taoist and countless great methods originated from this one. However, because the practice of this method is too slow, no one practices it anymore, and it has been lost to transmission. Self-practice exchange points 90 points, quickly master 400 points.

  Looking at these two items, Bai Yu's eyes lit up. With just these things in front of him, he could already feel the power of the law. If that was the case, then wouldn't it be...? Thinking about how he used to work tirelessly to earn a living, Bai Yu couldn't help but get lost in thought. Would he still need to do that kind of exhausting work in the future? However, thinking about these things was still too early. First and foremost, he needed to make himself stronger. What if he died in that other world? Then what opportunities would he have left? Bai Yu asked, "System, what are the worlds I'm going to be crossing into like?"

  "It is a world connected by some movies and TV shows in the world where the host lives, and the host should have an impression."

  "Movies and TV shows?" Bai Yu asked incredulously: "Are there really such worlds?"

  "In theory, most of it exists, and the power of human thoughts has an unexpectedly great ability."

  "What kind of TV dramas are those?" Bai Yu asked the crucial question.

  "In human terms on Earth, it's a mythological subject."

  Bai Yu nodded, thinking to himself that this meant the worlds with magic and supernatural powers were out of his reach. The worlds he could enter now were probably those without such absolute non-human forces, possibly some Hong Kong ghost or zombie movies. He had to use his 100 points wisely, applying them in a way that would be most helpful to him. Moreover, it was crucial for him to be familiar with the plot, as knowing the story would be more useful than simply increasing his own strength. This knowledge could often save his life at critical moments. So, he suppressed his impulse and decided to gather information first before quitting his miserable job.

  He then asked the system: "How can I get out?"

  "The host can just think 'go out' in his mind to do so. Conversely, thinking 'enter' will allow him to enter." Bai Yu did as he was told and indeed only felt a dizziness for a moment, the next second he found himself lying on the bed of his rental house. Bai Yu suddenly sat up, staring at the dazzling sunlight outside the window, and quietly stunned for a while. Suddenly pinched his thigh hard, hurting him to grit his teeth, then silently shouted in his heart: "System, are you there?"

  "Yes, host."

  "Haha, it's nothing, nothing." He burst out laughing and jumped off the bed, his hands and feet moving involuntarily as he started dancing. He jumped back onto the bed, then back down again, did a couple of push-ups on the floor, and struck a few fighting poses. Luckily, no one else was around to see him, or they would have thought he'd gone crazy. But in his mind, this was a normal reaction - just an ordinary person's emotions after winning a 5 million lottery prize. "Thud" - his extreme joy turned into sorrow as White Feather fell to the ground, with both feet still on the bed. However, he didn't care and instead pulled open the curtains and burst out laughing again. The neighbors who heard the commotion couldn't help but wonder if that person had received some kind of blow and gone stupid.
