Chapter 74: Cultivation Hacks, Part Two

We ate at a dumpling buffet this time. 

It is a bad idea.

The speed of Kiana’s intake alone surpasses the production of cooked dumplings. She single-handedly disrupted the entire buffet to the point I chose not to match her pace.

Fortunately, we did not come into trouble. Heck, everyone admired Kiana’s black-hole stomach. She ended up being placed into the “Hall of Fame” as the girl who ate a thousand dumplings within an hour.

If that wasn’t eno...

Chapter 73: Life-sized Gunpla Builder

“Ah…”

Kiana was stunned to see a black dragon sitting on the corner of the bed.

It is Shi Tian wearing the practical second grade onesie. His values could not let go of practicality.

Anyways, he can try out its functions inside this room. Only Kiana would see it. This is not considered an aura debt.

“It looks uber cute! Where did you buy it?”

“...It’s my pajama. “ He said after some pause. “Master sent it back to me…...

Chapter 72: Oh, Decisions, Decisions

Running through the trees, my mind couldn’t stop thinking about this opportunity.

Turns out, honkai and immortal cultivation can be used together!

Things happened too fast. I didn’t expect I could do something like this!

The moment I heard Fu Hua’s abstract mantra, my Sword Nurturing Pagoda responded. It carried me through the entire process of the [Blade Mantra] along with my comprehension. [Blade Mantra] is surprisingly similar to the principles of ...

Chapter 71: Blade Mantra

Honkai.

In a purely objective standpoint, it is a high-level power that suddenly came to the Solar System. Its origin, the Cocoon of Finality, existed hundreds of millions years ago at least.

The Cocoon of Finality searches numerous “worlds” within the imaginary tree and takes root onto them. That was what it did in Venus’ civilization 250 million years ago. This is also what it did during the last 50,000 years on Earth.

It is a force worthy of respect, which is precis...

As soon as the order came up, Fu Hua’s brief vacation in Taixuan Mountain was momentarily halted. 

It didn’t take long for her to arrive at the designated sight.

‘These are lightning marks.’

Her sharp eyes caught numerous details.

‘The affected area… it’s not small.’

Fu Hua frowned at the r...

Foundation Establishment cultivators surpass Qi Refining Realm practitioners in all aspects. Their senses, for once, allow them to react to any sudden changes.

“Hm..?”

Shi Tian did not need to open his eyes. His spiritual consciousness fed back the vision of his surroundings. It caused his meditative state to be broken, howe...

Chapter 68: Choices Ripple

Kiana soon followed my gaze before looking at me. Her eyes contained a hint of… disbelief?

“What?”

“Is she your type?”

She sneakily pointed towards Himeko. Her outfit alone stands out from this village. Even if there are tourists, her demeanor is one of a kind.

Not to mention she’s currently wearing a battlesuit underneath her jacket. Its tight-fitting design highlighted her curves.

Her mature aura added the icing on her lethal face card.

This w...

Chapter 67: Tuna's Growth

Power.

Endless power.

My motivation is surging.

Right after the breakthrough, I faced the tribulation clouds. I did not feel the usual fear in my heart.

I felt very excited.

My Sword Heart rang out at that time. It wanted me to cut it down. It wanted to be free and unrestrained.

…

I am not fooling myself this time.

It is not my Sword Heart’s wish.

It’s mine.

I did not hesitate to fulfill it, not befor...

Chapter 66: A Sword Against Tribulations

Everything happened within an hour.

At first, Kiana noticed the changes surrounding Shi Tian. His clothes started to get torn off out of nowhere. Blood started to seep out of his body.

But then, it stopped.

That was the start of it all. 

‘He became stronger..?’

Kiana could not shake off that uneasy feeling. Her spiritual consciousness had always been observing him closely. She saw how his dantian exploded with a poof. 

To outsiders, it did not...

“Fu…”

No matter how hard I try, I can't get used to Shenzhou’s climate. I am used to the Sun being covered by clouds. The cold climate made it feel like I’m using air conditioning even if I am not.

The best thing about Shenzhou, though, is the food.

Slurp-!

I looked beside me. There are a dozen bowl...

My vision is very blurry.

…

It is raining. I can feel myself being drenched in water.

Clap-!

Thunder struck. The brief flash of light illuminated the snowy ground. It is nighttime.

Patter-!

The rain droplets partially melted the snow. My head is facing downwards.

…

It’s too h...

Chapter 63: Prologue to the Killing Field

“The kids…”

“Are you reluctant to leave?”

“...Kinda.”

Each child who came brought a gift of sorts. Kiana lived in Siberia for around two years. She is the first one who properly interacted with the kids. I came next after learning Russian for two weeks.

There are times I taught them subjects like arithmetic and English grammar. It didn’t take much time.

…

“Fu…”

I breathed out.

“We’ll still meet them. It’s not like w...

Taking a bath, dressing up, styling Kiana’s braids…

It took thirty minutes in total. It is now 7:30 AM.

“Sure you left nothing?”

“Yeah!”

Her package is noticeably larger than before. Most, if not all, are long-sleeved. They are similar to Seele’s skirt dress. There are also hoodies, t-shirts, and so...

I was expecting Sin Mal to either become hostile or straight up scared after I revealed my Sword Heart. Its “aura” alone is something ordinary humans could not bear. 

Best case is legs shaking; worst case is fainting.

A few talks later…

“???”

I could not follow her line of thought. My eyes swept over her e...

Morning came.

As expected, Kiana reached the late stage of Qi Refining Realm. The benefits brought by the presumed late second grade spiritual milk is massive.

This is cultivation.

Nothing beats the way of taking drugs… I mean spiritual materials.

After breakfast, Kiana pulled me over in a corner.

“Have yo...

Chapter 59: Yin and Yang

It is currently nighttime, just right before bedtime.

In my right hand is the glass bottle I gained earlier. Its shape is similar to Pocari in five hundred milliliters. Its engraving and unusual toughness showcased its specialness.

…

I still can’t believe this thing’s effects.

Earlier, I probed it with my fingertip. I took out a very small drop. It ended up giving me an effect similar to spiritual plants… but dozens of times stronger.

It is even ...

Once the formal instruction ended, Bronya came to me with a request.

“Can you bring The Bronya to the skies?”

“Hm?”

I understood what she wanted to say.

“You mean, bring you up with my flying sword?”

“Da.”

“Okay.”

The completion of the Qi Refining late stage meant a boost in my s...

Chapter 57: Pioneering Cultivation

‘Is he like me?’

From the moment Bronya saw Shi Tian, she felt the danger he posed. It is a form of uneasiness that something bad will happen once he makes a move. Her first encounter with Cocolia awakened that sense.

By the time Cocolia disappeared from Bronya’s Kar-98, she knew everything else was pointless. Her life being spared was completely unexpected. It gave her a second chance to live a life different from what she knew.

Hence, she did not think much ...

Chapter 56: RNG Luck

The trio’s awakening went smoothly.

Welt Yang revealed a high-grade Heavenly Earth Spirit Root. Einstein and Tesla both have middle grade Spirit Roots. The former has Fire and Wood attributes. The latter has Metal and Water.

Since they have the mutually enforcing effect of the five elements, they don’t have to do the “adjustments” of people with conflicting elements—fire and water, for example. It saves up a lot of time. Although, they miss out on the ‘destructive’ a...

Chapter 55: How The Roles Switch

My first thoughts about Anti-Entropy are purely for helping. Spiritual qi might recover Welt Yang’s peak form. Honkai energy exists in the body. Spiritual qi exists in a separate metaphysical state.

The two do not conflict. Whenever honkai energy enhances the body's capabilities, it also causes damages. Spiritual qi repairs that damage. That's how it is during the Qi Refining Realm.

The [Two Phase Art] can also prevent minor honkai eruptions if used well.

My previ...

Chapter 54: Welt Yang

It took twenty minutes’ worth of walking. Tesla offered me some lunch. I disagreed.

I want to see a third-grade spirit vein more.

My phone vibrated in my pocket. It is currently 12:28 PM. I opened the messaging app and found Kiana’s message.

[When will you come back?]

[Let’s have lunch there. 1:20 PM.]

I received a reply quickly.

[OK.]

It wasn’t just a text. There is also a HOMU sticker with an exaggerated thumbs up.

I am remind...

Chapter 53: Combat Simulation

Ten percent.

I can only fire that kind of [Nine Dragons Purple Qi] ten or eleven times. My spiritual qi reserves will bottom out by then. Without any spiritual qi, my automatic circulation (i.e., recovery) comes to a halt.

I can only fire nine more of that. Considering my consumption for the [Cloud Seeking Steps], six or seven is my limit.

I looked at the jian in my grasp. It’s time to test it.

Swoosh-!

My body swiftly went in another direction. The sh...

Chapter 52: Salt Lake Base

Before going outside, Tesla threw a small case on me. I opened it and found sunglasses.

“The simulation room’s location is quite far from here. You’ll need it.”

“Thank you.”

Despite the sun no longer affecting my eyes, I still wore it. She went out first and opened a door, releasing an unprecedented brightness. My eyes remained focused on Tesla’s back.

What greeted my sight was an entire military base. I can see a dozen hangars from the distance. There ar...

It is currently midnight. Teaching Bronya and Seele took longer than I thought. It was fine when I showed Kiana the circulation and let her do it herself. She managed to do it in three tries. Turns out, that wasn’t the case with others.

Bronya learned more with analogy based on modern knowledge. Seele preferred having to listen to the actual...

Chapter 50: Revealed Talents

“The first thing that comes is the aptitude test. You can think of it as scanning for talents, but in this case, it is related to martial arts.”

The two girls had different reactions. Bronya just nodded; Seele looked a bit anxious.

“I need to touch your wrists.”

“Hm.”

Bronya came forward first. She handed over her right hand to me.

I blinked several times. Only when I am sure my vision remains on ‘meridians’ did I look at her. It’ll be hard if I...

Chapter 49: Cultivation Teacher

A few hours passed. Dinner had passed yet the two hadn't talked properly…

…up until now.

The two beds are separated with a desk. Kiana sat cross-legged on it as she faced Shi Tian. The ceiling lights dimly lit the room. The gusts of wind mixed with snow could be heard outside the window. 

“Where did you go?”

“I met up with someone.”

“Ah?”

Kiana is stunned. She did not expect him to outright say it.

“When we were cleaning up the ...

Chapter 48: Anti-Entropy

Herrschers are beings chosen by the honkai to spread its advocate. Each one of them possesses 'authorities' over their given concepts. 

Due to the machinations of the Previous Era, the honkai began to think more 'human-like'. Its actions became predictable, unlike before.

Similarly, the orders of Herrschers are set in stone—though this became very questionable.

Nevertheless, the First Herrscher remained to be the Herrscher of Reason.

There is a...

Chapter 47: Beginner Stalker Meets Expert Stalker

Tesla briefed me with some information for today’s meeting over the phone. 

First, she will bring another friend, Einstein.

Second, all I have to do is to explain spiritual qi to them verbatim.

Third, I will receive some sort of compensation. As to what it was, it is up to me.

“Spirritual qi does not exist normally. My master emphasized that, and the prominence of honkai energy. She came up with a method to turn all sorts of energies into a viable energy. That...

Chapter 46: How is She Sleepwalking???

A small recap.

The chaos last night wore Kiana down. It did not affect me much. I am even refreshed after fighting for a while. Zombies are no longer enough to test my full capabilities. We did not encounter honkai beasts. Cocolia did her job well.

Then…

We ate some dinner. Kiana went to sleep early while I did my usual qi cultivation sessions at night. The plant’s efficacy did not completely disappear after breaking through the late stage.

Then…

…

Chapter 45: Nightmare

Welt Yang…

From an objective perspective, he handled things badly. He is quite the incompetent First Herrscher compared to Welt Joyce. His defeat against the Sirin is quite arguable since Otto the shit-stirrer caused it. But then, Welt’s situation deteriorated further when he had to contain Kevin inside the Sea of Quanta.

By the time Bronya inherited his Herrscher Core, he remained at the sidelines. That remained until he got sent outside the solar system where Ae...
