2: Others traveled through time as people, but I traveled through time as a car.

Lin Feng was extremely depressed.

Why was he depressed? Because Lin Feng never expected that he would transmigrate to an apocalypse just by getting into a car accident.

Transmigrating to an apocalypse was one thing, but he never expected that he would transmigrate into a vehicle.

And it was a colorful caravan.

The image is from the internet, it's roughly this appearance, everyone can imagine it for themselves.

The four wheels clearly showed signs of disrepair, making a "creak, creak" sound when driven. There was also no shock absorption, so driving through this Ferocious Beast Forest, Lin Feng himself felt like he was going to throw up from the bumps.

This was unfair! Even if he hadn't accumulated much good karma in his previous life, it shouldn't have been so bad that he couldn't be reincarnated as a human, but instead as a "car"!

Moreover, he had been killed by a car in his previous life, which was truly unbearable.

However, despite his depression, since things were already this way, he couldn't reincarnate again. He could only accept his fate.

Fortunately, his vehicle could travel unimpeded through the outer reaches of the Ferocious Beast Forest, and the attacks of those ferocious beasts couldn't harm him.

And even though he was a vehicle, he had awakened the essential system for transmigration, though its name was a bit different: the Apocalypse Train Upgrade System.

This meant that as long as he carried passengers and earned fares, he could upgrade the train.

After the train was upgraded, it would have more functions, and the system told him to look forward to it.

Lin Feng: I'm looking forward to your m... The reason he was traveling here in such a depressed state was to find suitable passengers.

Oh, there's a person ahead.

In front of this person was a snake, a Level Three ferocious beast, the Red Rattle Snake.

Lin Feng immediately used the Eye of Truth provided by the system to look at the person's life story.

Good heavens, this Xiao Shen, despite his young age, had experienced quite a lot of major events.

He was betrayed by the person he trusted most and then thrown into the forest.

How pitiful.

Looking at it this way, his transmigration into a vehicle didn't seem so depressing anymore. The joys and sorrows between people truly weren't interconnected.

However, although Xiao Shen was pitiful, looking at his experiences—being adopted, awakening a special talent, having his talent stolen, losing all his cultivation, becoming a cripple... wasn't this clearly the protagonist's script??

And more importantly, his surname was Xiao.

It was a complete protagonist buff stack.

Although he was just a vehicle now, he could still cling to a powerful figure!

So Lin Feng had a flash of inspiration: this vehicle's first passenger would be him!

"Do you need a ride?"

Although Xiao Shen had many doubts in his heart when he saw this sentence written on the vehicle, he was in mortal danger at the moment and had no time to think. So he quickly used his fastest speed to leap onto the vehicle.

The words in front of him immediately changed:

"Welcome aboard this train. Please stand firm and hold on."

Why "stand firm" and not "sit firm"? That's because Lin Feng was only Level One now, and there wasn't even a seat in the vehicle... Xiao Shen grabbed a pillar inside the vehicle and stood steady. The next second, this colorful caravan started to move "quickly."

The Red Rattle Snake blinked, not understanding why this suddenly appearing vehicle was so slow.

So the Red Rattle Snake crawled forward a few times, blocking the front of the vehicle, and continued to flick its tongue.

It seemed to want to swallow both the person and the vehicle.

The most anxious was naturally Xiao Shen, who had just gotten on. He had thought this vehicle had something special about it, like being extremely fast, able to shake off ferocious beasts, but he hadn't expected... the vehicle's speed was even slower than his own walking pace.

It seemed he was destined to die here today.

His ambitions unfulfilled, his aspirations incomplete, reaching a dead end, he would die with his eyes wide open!

He gripped the short knife in his hand, ready to jump off the vehicle at any moment.

However, before he could make a move, another line of text appeared before him:

"Please purchase a ticket for the ride. The price is one hundred low-grade spirit stones."

Xiao Shen was stunned. He was about to jump off the vehicle, yet it still wanted him to buy a ticket?

And it was so expensive.

Although the vehicle only asked for low-grade spirit stones, in reality, an ordinary Martial Artist working in the Wall for a month would only earn a few thousand low-grade spirit stones, which they would then spend on food and lodging, and then buy a few random things. In the end, they could save at most only a thousand spirit stones a month.

Although Xiao Shen was a bit stronger than an ordinary Martial Artist, his salary wasn't particularly high. One hundred low-grade spirit stones was enough for several days of his expenses.

But as the saying goes, one must have the skill to undertake a difficult task. Since the ticket was so expensive, did this vehicle truly have something special about it?

Xiao Shen closed his eyes, then opened them again.

Forget it, he would die if he jumped off anyway. He might as well trust this vehicle once. His revenge was not yet taken; if there was a way to survive, why would he be willing to die?

Only by living would he have a chance for revenge!

It's just one hundred low-grade spirit stones, he had them!

"Successfully purchased one ticket. Please keep it safe."

The hundred spirit stones in his hand disappeared, replaced by a thin ticket.

It read:

"Passenger Name: Xiao Shen

Travel Time: Apocalypse Year 308, April

Number: 001"

Xiao Shen's decision-making time seemed long, but in reality, it was only a few seconds. That Red Rattle Snake swung its tail and crashed into the vehicle. Xiao Shen could tell that this swing was at least equivalent to the full-force strike of a Level Three Martial Artist.

But just as the Red Rattle Snake's tail struck the vehicle body, a mysterious power suddenly erupted from the vehicle body, directly bouncing the entire Red Rattle Snake away!

With just that one hit, the Red Rattle Snake was bounced far away, seemingly into an area where higher-level ferocious beasts congregated.

"This... how is this possible?"

Xiao Shen was utterly incredulous.

He swallowed hard. It was a good thing he hadn't impulsively jumped off the vehicle just now, otherwise, he would definitely be utterly annihilated by now.

Lin Feng felt a little smug. It was just a Level Three Red Rattle Snake, and his Level One train could withstand it. When he upgraded to Level Two, perhaps even Level Six ferocious beasts wouldn't be able to get close to him.

Xiao Shen put away his ticket, calmed his emotions, and sat cross-legged.

This was the action he was most familiar with, as absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth required full concentration, so he would spend a long time doing this every day.

Martial Artists cultivate by absorbing the primal energy from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. However, spiritual energy is very difficult to obtain. Even within the Wall, the spiritual energy is very thin, not to mention in the forest.

So some larger powers and families within the Wall set up formations to organize spiritual energy, forming Spirit Gathering Towers to store spiritual energy.

Xiao Shen used to be able to enter the Xiao Family's Spirit Gathering Tower once a week, where the spiritual energy was much denser than outside.

After losing his Jade Dragon Acupoint, Xiao Shen had also tried to absorb primal energy, but all his attempts were in vain.

With his Qi Cavity taken, he could no longer absorb primal energy.

Although he knew that trying again wouldn't change anything, that lost cultivation was lost and couldn't be recovered.

But he just wanted to try one more time.

If it still didn't work, he would just have to give up.

However, just as he tried to absorb primal energy again, he suddenly discovered that he seemed to be able to feel the primal energy within the spiritual energy!

This??

After his surprise, Xiao Shen was ecstatic.

So he continued to circulate his cultivation technique, absorbing the primal energy from the spiritual energy.

After these primal energies were absorbed into his body, they all consciously drilled into a new Qi Cavity!
