Chapter 2: The Unexpected Gain
Qin Yi's expression flashed with joy.
Initially, he thought he would rely on hard work and perseverance to climb out of zero to hero.
However, he was not sure how long will it take.
By relying on his martial aptitude alone, he did not have the confidence to reach the First Stage Qi Condensation in such a short amount of ti. Perhaps around a year, two years, or even five years that he could beco one.
But now, with the golden finger, it would be another story!
"System, perform the extraction on the Deacon!"
Qin Yi settled down and muttered silently in his heart.
He was looking forward to what the system could produce for him. Unfortunately, what happened the next is greatly disappointed him.
[The extraction failed!]
[Note: The target is out of the extraction range.]
[Note: The extraction range is within five ters from the Host.]
Qin Yi is at a loss. He suffered failures on the first try.
Who should he bla? After all, he is still unfamiliar with the work of the system.
"Forget it! It's not like I unable to perform the extraction on the Deacon again next ti."
Qin Yi stood in front of his room for a while. Then he pushed the door open and went straight inside.
He lit an oil lamp and sat on the bed. With that, he began to study the system.
When he was about to question the system, a blue translucent UI suddenly pop out in front of him as if the system had already understood its Host's intention.

Age: 17
Martial Aptitude: Low-Grade
Cultivation Base: None (The First Stage of Qi Condensation (0/1000)
Spiritual Mind: 20
Cultivation Point: 0
Mastery Point: 0
-----
"Well… this is like a ga."
Qin Yi was surprised as he muttered lowly after he saw the UI.
As a person from the Earth, he is very familiar with this kind of interface.
Although Qin Yi could not rember how he died, he still rembers that he has hobbies gaming and reading various genres of novels, including ga-based genre novels. Therefore, he was not very surprised regarding this UI.
Going through below, he finally saw the introduction of the system.
「Basic Introduction:
The Extraction System exists to assist the Host in the journey of cultivation. It can perform extraction on anything in the world. Whenever the Host performs the extraction, the Host will gain everything from the target.
Basic Functions:
Casual Extraction: This mode allows the system to extract and re-create everything (except for living or intelligent beings) that belongs to the target, but the target will not suffer any losses. The Host can perform this mode on anyone and in any situation.
Extre Extraction: This mode allows the system to extract the actual object from the target, and the target will suffer an apparent loss. After using this mode, all functions of the Extraction System will be disabled for a month.
[Note: Please be cautious when using this mode!]
Requirents and limitations:
- The system can only extract targets that are in the sa cultivation realm as the Host. Beyond that will result in failure.
- The system can only extract targets within five ters of the Host. Beyond that will result in failure.
- The system can repeatedly perform the extraction on the sa target, but the thing to be obtained will be different. It depends on what the target has in each mont.
- The system prefers to extract the object that contains spiritual energy or sothing extraordinary. However, the Host's command takes precedence. 」
"Hiss…" Qin Yi sucked in cold air, "This is cheating!"
This broken system can extract soone's belongings without their knowledge. Not to ntion, If he used extre extraction on an enemy, they would end up naked before him.
"Such a formidable system. I wonder, what did I deserve to receive this system? Did I save the universe in my previous life? No, wait, I'm just ordinary human being in the previous life, or perhaps in my previous of previous life."
Qin Yi continued to scroll the text below...
「As the system owner, the Host was allowed to check your personal information through the UI. According to the UI's features:
Na: Host's na.
[Note: It cannot be changed]
Aptitude: Not every human being is born with the aptitude to practice martial arts. Those with aptitude could practice martial arts and beco cultivators, whereas those with no aptitude could only spend their lifeti as mortals with limited lifespans.
[Note: The current Host's aptitude is low-grade aptitude. It can increase by extracting targets who have higher aptitude grades.]
Cultivation Base: It displays the cultivation stage of the Host. It can increase by using a certain amount of Cultivation Points.
[Note: Each stage requires a certain amount of Cultivation Points. The higher the stage, the greater the number of Cultivation Points needed.]
[Note: The Host's cultivation would never encounter a bottleneck, as long as the Host has sufficient Cultivation Points, and Host can breakthrough to the higher realm smoothly. Good for you, Host.]
Qin Yi, "…"
Thanks, I guess?
He continued to scroll down.
Spiritual Mind: Energy that is born in people with above-average minds. It is also an essential requirent for people who wants to acquire a secondary profession.
[Note: Further information can be obtained from the professionals.]
Cultivation Point: Conversion point of strands of qi extracted from the target that accumulated within a day. The Host can use it to promote the cultivation base or convert it into Mastery Point.
[Note: Cultivation Points can only be extracted once a day from the target, but they can be repeated on a different day.]
Mastery Point: Points that can increase martial arts mastery. It can be obtained by converting Cultivation Points to Mastery Points.]
[Note: With the current aptitude of Hosts, the conversion ratio of Cultivation Points to Mastery Points is 1000: 1, which is ant that 1000 Cultivation Points equivalent to 1 Mastery Point.] 」
After reading through the entire system's introduction and its functions, Qin Yi more or less understands how it works.
The next thing he needed to do was conduct an actual experint. However, taking the system's preferences into account, it seed like he could only wait for the Deacon to co to the Novices' Quarter because the current novice disciples were not worthy of being extracted.
***
The next day, Qin Yi executed his task as usual.
He wants to extract so fortunes from the Deacon, but he did not see the Deacon for a whole day.
Moreover, he has no reason to et the Deacon. On the other hand, the Deacon also had no reason to spend his precious ti eting insignificant people like Qin Yi.
Such dilemma.
He tried to extract his fellow novice disciples but to no avail as they had not even managed to gather spiritual energy yet. Besides, they are too poor to the point they have nothing worth to be extracted by the system.
As a novice disciple, the only thing they earn from this place is daily food and cultivation technique obtained on the first day they arrived in the Novices' Quarter.
A week later, a long awaiting Deacon appeared in Novices' Quarter to supervise the novice disciples' work.
This ti, Qin Yi will not as ignorant as the last ti.
He went over to Deacon, but he was also trying to lower his presence as much as possible.
Apart from supervising the novice disciples' work, Deacon is occasionally giving pointer and answer the Novice Disciples' doubts related to cultivation. He was generous in this regard; even Qin Yi grew a bit of respect toward him.
After confirming the Deacon was within extraction range, he silently gave the command to the system.
"System, perform casual extraction on the Deacon!"
And the next mont…
[Extraction completed!]
[Obtained 10 Cultivation Points]
Qin Yi frowned as he did not know whether 10 Cultivation Points are a big or small number since this is the first ti he perford the extraction.
Never mind, at least he earned Cultivation Points.
In the next second, other notifications popping out sequentially in front of him, which startled him a bit.
[Obtained 20 Qi Strengthening Pills. Grade: Rank 1]
[Obtained 5 Detoxification Pills. Grade: Rank 1]
[Obtained 100 Spirit stones. Grade: Low-grade]
[Obtained cultivation technique "Qi Condensation Manual". Grade: Human]
[Obtained cultivation technique "Wind Force". Grade: Human]
[Obtained martial skill "Ten Illusionary Hands". Grade: Human]
[Obtained movent skill "Flowing Cloud Step ". Grade: Human]
[Obtained Artefact "storage pouch". Grade: Normal.]
[Obtained rit Card]
[Note: System will automatically store the extraction objects in the storage system. The Host can retrieve it anyti.]
"Dang, so rich! This poor-and-thin-looking Deacon unexpectedly has a lot of possession on his body!"
"Well, he is the Deacon after all, nothing surprising. Instead, it would be strange if he is as poor as novice disciples."
Thinking about this, he began to fantasy how much he could earn from the outer disciples or even legendary inner disciples…
"Cough, forget it. Everything needs a process."
Nonetheless, he found out that the system has its storage.
With the existence of the storage system, he can finally feel relieved. No matter how much treasure Qin Yi possessed, people would never notice it.
Qin Yi is in no rush to open the storage system.
He will wait until his work session is over. By then, the Deacon should also have returned to his quarter.
Neither Deacon nor novice disciple noticed Qin Yi's stealthy behavior as if things were going as usual.
However, when he was about to turn around, his face bumped into soone else face and made both of their noses turn red slightly.
"Ouch…"
"Sorry, are you alright?"
Qin Yi hastily asked.
After all, it was his fault for having turned around so suddenly.
"It is fine, it's fine."
Qin Yi looked at the young man that he bumped into. He is not particularly handso but quite a good-looking fellow.
"Please forgive , fellow disciple. I had an urge and wanted to go to the toilet but who would have thought that soone else was behind . If you do not mind, please tell your na. I will apologize to you properly later."
"No, no, there is no need…" The young man hurriedly waves his hands and smiles, "However, I can tell you my na. My na is Lin Tian. Since we are the sa fellow novice disciple, there is no need for politeness between us."
Qin Yi raised his right eyebrow, 'Lin Tian? I seem to have heard that na from soone's mouth...'
He called that na over and over in his head, alas nothing cos up to his mind.
'Perhaps it is just misrecognition? Should I use the system to check anything useful from this fellow?'
After pondering for a while, he finally made up his mind.
'System, use casual extraction on him!'
As soon as Qin Yi's order ca out, the system imdiately executed it.
[Extraction completed!]
[Obtained dium-grade aptitude.]
[Note: Host obtained a dium-grade aptitude, do you want to replace your low-grade aptitude with a dium-grade aptitude?]
"This…"
Qin Yi was taken aback for a mont before he excitedly responded to the system's option.
'Yes!'
Which stupid cultivator would not want their aptitude to upgrade?
What an unexpected gain.
Sotis, sothing unexpected will always happen unexpectedly around you.
Well, it happened to Qin Yi this ti.
'Wait, Lin Tian... dium-grade aptitude...'
Qin Yi suddenly rembered sothing.
It's him!
Lin Tian, the novice disciple who possessed dium-grade aptitude. He once heard his na from other novice disciple's mouths.
Qin Yi once thought of extracting aptitude from that fellow, but because the two of them were assigned in different quarters, he had no other choice to postpone the plan.
Never crossed in his mind that they will et in this place.
It seems that even dium-grade aptitude does not want to miss out on the Deacon's preaching.
Regardless, now that he got what he wanted, it was ti to back off.
"Brother, I will go first. I will greet you later~."
With this, Qin Yi left without Lin Tian's consent, but he heard a faint voice from that fellow.
