Hijacking the Timeline

Back in the dormitory, Mo Fei was still studying.

His computer screen displayed A History of Modern Weapon Development, and his hand moved tirelessly across his notebook, jotting down key points.

After exchanging greetings, Feng Qi washed up, lay down on his bed, and drifted off to sleep.

When he opened his eyes again, everything felt familiar.

Turning his head, he saw the familiar living dead struggling to rise from the ground before awkwardly performing a split.

Without wasting words, Feng Qi picked up a leg bone from the ground and smashed it into the living dead’s head before it could attack.

After several heavy blows, the creature fell still.

Feng Qi continued eastward, slaughtering living dead along the way.

There were gains and losses. Since he couldn’t grow stronger in reality, he was determined to do so in the Dream Realm. Perhaps leveling up by killing monsters in the Dream Realm would be easier than cultivating in the real world.

As he advanced, wielding the leg bone of some unknown creature, he went on a killing spree.

He showed no mercy to any living dead missing limbs or struggling to move.

Killed a living dead, gained 1 Qi and Blood Value.

Prefix Title ”Normal” Upgrade Milestone Progress: 21%

Killed a living dead, gained 1 Qi and Blood Value.

Prefix Title ”Normal” Upgrade Milestone Progress: 24%

With each kill, the flesh buds on his body gradually grew, some areas even forming pink muscle strands.

”Narrator, if I absorb enough Qi Blood Points, can I become human again in the Dream Realm?” Feng Qi asked, puzzled by the changes in his body.

You might also evolve into a grotesque, muscular monster. Don’t overthink it—just let nature take its course.

Feng Qi: ...

He didn’t actually care much about becoming human again in the Dream Realm. What mattered to him was getting rid of the rotting stench clinging to his body. Every time he entered the Dream Realm, he found himself disgusted with himself.

After killing another living dead, Feng Qi discarded the broken leg bone he was holding. He casually picked up a fresh bone from the ground, tested its hardness, and continued on his way.

Looking up, he saw countless living dead figures swaying across the desolate plains. To Feng Qi, they were all experience points waiting to make him stronger.

Just as he was about to press onward, the ground trembled slightly. A tentacle suddenly emerged from a pile of withered bones, wrapping around his waist. The bone pile was then pushed aside, revealing the creature beneath.

It was a scarlet worm, resembling the mythical ”Death Worm” of modern folklore. Its thick body writhed as it opened its maw, lined with rows of sharp teeth, and lunged at Feng Qi.

Having experienced death multiple times, Feng Qi remained unfazed. He decisively swung his bone club, striking the Worm’s head and leaving a deep dent.

The Worm recoiled in pain, its tail tightening around Feng Qi’s waist, constricting his midsection.

Unfazed by the pain, Feng Qi continued his assault, repeatedly smashing the Worm’s head with his bone club.

Green fluid splattered as the Worm quickly lost its fighting ability, collapsing limply onto the ground.

But Feng Qi showed no mercy. After freeing himself from the Worm’s grip, he continued to pummel its head until a wisp of crimson mist emerged and flowed into his body.

The sensation of absorbing Vital Energy filled him with a surge of vitality, though the feeling vanished within seconds.

Summoning his attribute panel, he noticed further changes:

Resilient Living Dead: Feng Qi

Strength Tier: Unranked

Prefix Titles: Normal (No stat modifiers), Resilience LV1 (1% increase to muscle resilience)

Bloodline: Human (Primary)

Bloodline Evolution Points: 43/1000

Prefix Title Milestones:

Normal (Upgradeable):

Second Milestone: 33%

Resilience LV1 (Upgradeable): 2%

”Another Prefix Title?”

Noticing the change in his attributes, Feng Qi suddenly realized that killing monsters in the Dream Realm not only granted him Bloodline Evolution Points but also allowed him to strip away portions of their abilities, which then became his Prefix Titles.

With this in mind, he immediately asked:

”Narrator, am I right? Can I acquire abilities from different monsters and unlock Prefix Title Evolution Milestones?”

Yes. In the future, your name will become very, very, very long. For example: Gale Hundred Poisons Immunity Eagle Eye Rapid Warhammer Sharp Wisdom Resilience Robust Living Dead: Feng Qi.

Feng Qi: ...

Elated by this near-cheat-like ability, Feng Qi raised his bone club and continued his slaughterous advance.

Killed a living dead, gained 1 Qi and Blood Value.

Prefix Title ”Normal” upgrade Milestone progress: 43%

Killed a living dead, gained 1 Qi and Blood Value.

Prefix Title ”Normal” upgrade Milestone progress: 58%

As he continued his relentless assault, he encountered several worms along the way. These worms had soft yet resilient skin. He tried fighting them with bone thorns, but they couldn’t pierce their hides. The bone club remained the most effective weapon.

Under the relentless pounding of the bone club, the worms were eventually reduced to lifeless husks, yielding Bloodline Evolution Points and progress toward his Prefix Title Milestone.

After wandering in fits and starts, circling nearly halfway around the area, Feng Qi found himself back at the Stone Tablet of the shelter.

After a moment’s hesitation, he decided to venture inside.

He pricked his finger, dripped blood onto the tablet, and the stone shifted, revealing a rust-covered metal passage.

Following the passage into the underground plaza, he headed straight for the database at its center.

Though he couldn’t cultivate himself, the cultivation techniques within the database had proven effective in the real world. He resolved to learn several more techniques and bring them back to reality.

”Genius’s First Step: Plagiarize the Database”

Approaching the database, he pressed the ”Activate” button. The main console trembled, and the dust-covered screen flickered to life, displaying a list of options.

Before studying other techniques, he decided to check his future evaluation again, to see if the changes in reality had altered it.

He typed his name into the search bar, filtered the results, and the detailed profile appeared:

Feng Qi (Galaxy Research Institute - Researcher)
