《A Life of Terror.》Life.

Warmth. I've never felt it before. Actually...I don't think I've felt anything else either. It's nice...I like it. Honestly, the only things wrong are those thingies that keep trying to get inside my mind. They seem pretty scary and violent so I've just been ignoring them so far. The Squiglies even showed up after I thought about them for a while.
Figuring out what they mean is kind of a game at this point. So far, I've been able to figure out that there are two types of the Squiglies. One type is meant for trying to tell me things, and the other has something to do with how many of something there are. Then the Noiseys come and try and explain it a different way. Finally then, the Squiglies just push what they're trying to say right into my think-box.
I don't really get what a think-box is even though the Squiglies try and explain it. It's...me? Something like that, I don't get it.

(Yes)(No)
Ooooooh, lot's of Squiglies today. Most of it goes right over my head, which shouldn't be to hard considering it only started growing a while ago. Anyway, that end part sounded pretty fun. It's not that often that the Squiglies want me to reply.
Upon leaning my psyche toward the Squiglies, I was met with a refreshing wave of knowledge that was quite a bit different than most other before.
This...Goddess, was amazing. I saw flashes of water and these brightly colored things called 'flowers'. Oh! The Goddess is even named after one! So pretty! Not scary!
...I want to meet her! Yes!
You have chosen to try and make contact with the Goddess Lilac. Contact has been denied, however Lilac has chosen to grant you a quest upon birth so that you may prove yourself worthy of such council.
From what I get of that, I'll be alone for now. That's okay though! I'll keep trying until she's begging to see me!
For attempting to reach the gods themselves, and not becoming dissuaded after failure, you have gained the Faith attribute.
Though Lilac declined your audience, your hope of one day meeting the deity has only grown stronger. As such, your spirit is affected by the +10 increase of faith before your mortal birth.
Your species shall fall under; Pantheon of Nature.
WARNING; All required fields of Stats, Understanding, Moral Allignment, and Personality have been filled.
Birth will come soon, young one. It shall be filled with wonders and fear, but stride confidently. Whether the smallest of rodents, or the mightiest of beasts, all life has purpose. May the System aid and guide your path.
(Additional skills and titles shall now be added to your Status screen. To prevent an unnatural or unfortunate reaction between body and soul, you will soon lose conciousness. To lessen the probability of a birth defect, all [Unnamed Fetuses] are given +10 Luck.)

Moooooorrrrreeeeeee Ssssssqqqqquiglies! Wow, I haven't had this many in a while. Not since my limbs started growing at least.
They seem pretty small compared to the other things the Squiglies showed me. Other...life. There were big ones that breathed fire, small ones that could do this thing called digging! It looked like a lot of work though, and the fire burned things, so I'll do my best to avoid stuff like that. Eating seemed fun though!
The Squiglies showed me aaaaalllll kinds of food. There were these woolf things eating another thing, and hoomans eating tons of different things! The Squiglies said that humans are mean though, they don't talk to the Squiglies or say thank you ever! It seemed like they couldn't talk about it to much when I asked, but it really seemed like these hoomans are just a bunch of meanies!
For learning of a different species and growing to despise them, even with your inferior intelligence, you have gained the Hater of Humanity title. All damage to humans has been modified by ten percent, and shall grow with your resentment.
Since you have aquired both the Peaceful and Hater of Humanity titles, humans will resent you, but other sentient races will become more accepting of you. Any race that is at war or recovering from disputes with any human will be more tolerant of your actions, as well as more willing to listen to your council.
----
Sufficient growth has been reached, the time of your birth has come. You shall now be fully integrated into your new body.
Your new race is; Tortoise Golem.
Your new name, as determined by the Goddess Lilac, is Orchid.
To avoid damage of the soul or psyche, you shall lose conciousness in three...two...one.
Good luck.

Supreme Formation Immortal Sovereign
Falling under the Heavenly Tribulation, Ascending Celestial Oalur Kang finds that he's back in the past. Watch him pursue the Heavenly Path of Formations and rise to the peak of the Immortal Path! . . . . . . . . . Hello, this is F-Rank! This is my take on writing cultivation stories. Though I'm sure nobody cares, the intent behind this story was focused on creating a more or less logical cultivation system. I read several stories where the mc transmigrated to a cultivation world (not calling names to avoid unnecessary angst) and was able to completely break the cultivation system and the logic of the world because they had the power of science on their side and were able to think more logically than everybody else. Despite the fact that some characters in those stories were older than the scientific method of thinking and even the human civilization as we know it and the whole society was older than our human race. So I decided to write a story where things about cultivation make sense (as far as a magical world full of super magical people can make sense), so here we are. I don't know if I will be able to fulfil this purpose but I hope that the story will end up enjoyable. Can also be considered a prequel for my other story "Wasn’t my new life in a magical world supposed to be easy?" but has very little overlapping content and can be read as a stand alone story. Also available on Scribble Hub.
