Pure Text Version of the Translation
"Damn your divine punishment! You've trapped me here for so long!"
Forever Lu stood in the void, pointing at the sky and yelling furiously.
Immediately after, he burst into wild laughter.
"Think you can trap me forever? Watch how I break your lousy jade!"
Then, Forever Lu slowly closed his eyes and murmured softly, "I'm looking forward to your arrival, the 'me' from Blue Star."
"Whoa, what the hell!"
In the next second, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.
He was clearly still slaving away on Blue Star just moments ago—how did he end up in this weird place just from a night's sleep?
[Congratulations, Host, on unlocking the System!]
[Host: Forever Lu
Age: Unknown
Lifespan: Infinite
Strength: 0
Speed: 0
Defense: 0
Cultivation (xiuxian, the process of enhancing spiritual and physical power in Eastern fantasy): 0
Mana (Blue Bar, magical energy): 0
Touch Value (the ability to make physical contact with objects/oneself, a core stat here): 0
Current Host Status: Under divine punishment. The punished cannot touch any object—whether food, water, clothes, or another person's body. Nothing is within reach. The punished must learn the meaning of "touch" in absolute loneliness to atone.
This System can project external images to enhance the Host's understanding. Additionally, the Host can choose to add 1 point to any stat after sleeping for 1 year.]
Forever Lu understood most of this, but he was confused by the final part about divine punishment. What mistake had he made? That didn't make sense!
He puzzled over it endlessly but finally gave up.
The surroundings were a vast, white void, and he himself was floating in mid-air. However, there was a large projection screen that let him see what was happening outside.
The container holding him lay quietly in the weeds, yet he couldn't hear a single sound.
"Sleep for a year!" Forever Lu had no idea what else to do, so he decided to sleep to gain a stat point.
[Host Forever Lu, 1-year sleep countdown starts now.]
A year passed quickly, and Forever Lu woke up slowly.
"System, add the point to Cultivation (xiuxian)!" He thought there was no need to add points to other stats yet—he wanted to test by boosting his cultivation first.
He watched as the Cultivation (xiuxian) stat rose by 1, but he felt no change in himself at all.
"That's weird as hell." Not only did he feel no difference in his body, but he also heard no sound, felt no wind, and couldn't touch anything—not even his own body!
"System, sleep for another year!"
[Host Forever Lu, 1-year sleep countdown starts now.]
Forever Lu closed his eyes, then opened them again—and another year had passed.
"Add the point to Strength!"
Still, he felt nothing.
"System! Sleep!"
"Add to Speed!"
"Sleep!"
"Add to Defense!"
"Sleep!"
"Add to Mana (Blue Bar)!"
...
"Five years! It's been five whole years!" Forever Lu was on the verge of breaking down. He had slept five times and added five points, but there was still no change.
He looked at his status panel—only Touch Value (the ability to make physical contact) remained at 0; all other stats had 1 point each.
"One last try!"
"Sleep!"
Another year flew by.
"Add the point to Touch Value (the ability to make physical contact)!"
Yet again, Forever Lu felt no change in himself.
"Damn it! Are you messing with me?" He was so angry that he slapped his thigh. Logically, he should have been furious, but it felt like muscle memory—his emotions were completely calm, like still water.
"Wait a minute..." Suddenly, Forever Lu realized something, and then overwhelming joy surged through him.
"I can touch! I can touch my thigh!"
He danced wildly in the void, laughing like a maniac.
Six years!
After sleeping here for six years, Forever Lu finally felt the sensation of touching a solid object!
Overcome with excitement, he ran his hands over every part of his body.
