system dominates the cultivation world

Lin Chen stands atop the Lin family's crumbling ancestral hall, facing a dire siege by the rival Zhao family, led by their Golden Core elder, Zhao Hu. With only a dozen Qi Refining cultivators, the Lin family is outmatched, and Lin Chen's younger sister, Lin Yue, is gravely injured. As Zhao Hu's fireball spell descends, a mechanical voice echoes in Lin Chen's mind: "Ding! Supreme Family System bound! Newcomer gift: All family members' cultivation +1, 100,000 spirit stones, and one-time skill 'Heavenly Shield'!" Lin Chen activates the shield, deflecting the attack. His cultivation surges to the Foundation Establishment stage, and his clan members, including Lin Yue, recover and advance. Using his newfound power and a system-provided "Thunderstrike Talisman," Lin Chen obliterates Zhao Hu and his forces. The clan celebrates, but Lin Chen realizes the system's potential to change their fate. He vows to restore the Lin family's glory.
