{Bonus chapter for 300 power stones, thanks for the support}
"This is my organization, you want to join?" I asked with a smile, while sitting back on a chair, Jasmine sitting at the side while going through some paper.
"You should know I'm part of the number one sect of the immortal realm?" Gu Changga asked with a raised eyebrow. He was indeed the perfect end-game villain, with an overpowered family background, an overpowered sect in which he was ranked amongst their best members, and an overpowered inheritance.
"Oh? Are there any favored sons of heaven there?" I asked with interest,
"You want to join?" Gu Changga asked with a raised eyebrow as he didn't see me as the type to join, and he was right as I had no interest.
"Naw, if I join that means Limitless is under the master of that sect. I can't have that." I said with a shrug. Gu Changga shook his head lightly at my words, in his eyes gaining the resources of a powerful sect should be my number one goal, but clearly, I had no goals for such things.
Gu Changga looked at a paper that had information on Limitless. The organization did everything, assassination, loaning money, and even acting as a sect. The organization was split into many parts, each part having its leader.
Jasmine was the leader of the Limitless Shadow Hall. This hall was responsible for taking on dark tasks like killing, kidnapping, and other such things. If the right price is paid, then the task can be done. Although Xia Qingyue and Jasmine refused to take on evil tasks for no good reason.
Yun Che was the leader of the Limitless Sword Hall. It was a hall that took in and trained swordsmen. Yun Che's main weapon was a heavy sword, so I just had him first start mastering the sword, before he could pick up the heavy sword once more.
Fen Juechen became the leader of the Limitless Martial Arts Hall. It was a hall that only took in pure martial artists, pushing them to the peak.
Qin Wentian was special since he had no fixed thing and he was a jack of all trades, I had Qin Wentian just be the leader of the Limitless Punishment Hall. He was pretty much an officer, responsible for keeping the peace within the sect.
Xia Qingyue had no role, she was instead my right hand. Instead, Frozen Cloud Asgard has been absorbed into the sect. Gong Yuxian has become the master of the Limitless Frost Hall,
Helian Xun had become the leader of the Limitless Slaughter Hall, she was pretty much responsible for our military power.
There were many more halls, and at the highest level was me, overlooking everything. I didn't even do much as Xia Qingyue did most of the work, I just handled the big matters and only went out to have some fun.
"So, when do you plan on heading up to the immortal realm?" He asked seeing as given the time I could reach the peak of power by just staying within the lower realm.
"I was thinking of going now since the world is growing, I was thinking I might as well up and go to the immortal realm," I said with a smile. I have noticed that the world was growing, even those I never met were growing stronger.
The strength each cultivation realm was giving was growing, it was like everyone was growing to adapt to me. I wasn't growing stronger, but everyone else was growing stronger...
Just look at Gu Changga, the effect of this world growing to try and restore that balance hit him the most. I believed that other system users might even have growth capability rivalling him, if not faster since they wouldn't need other favored sons of heaven
"Oh? How fast is the growth of people?" Gu Changga asked much to Jasmine's confusion.
"It's ever-growing. At first, I noticed nothing, but about last year I saw the growth of everyone just start growing at a rate that's growing faster. I give it a few more years before the whole cultivation world feels the impact of me being a freak. As of this moment, every realm is 1.02 times stronger, next year it will be 1.03. a year later, it would be 1.049. the rate would keep growing, and in a hundred years, I expect it to be trillions or so times greater." I said lazily, making Jasmine's eyebrow raise as she secretly felt her strength. but she couldn't tell a thing as she was still recovering her strength, so she couldn't tell.
"I see..." Gu Changga sighed while closing his eyes. The world was growing stronger to adapt to me, meanwhile, my strength wouldn't feel the improvement which kind of sucked. So, to me, the gaps between levels would just increase. but to everyone else, things wouldn't change much. It might be easier for them to grow stronger, meaning it might be easier for them to skip levels.
Fun fact, during my battle with Gu Changga, I didn't use my cultivation. I just used my martial arts.
"Okay, what do you plan to go do in the immortal realm?" Gu Changga asked softly,
"I will go take over the realm of the gods first, from there I will go on to spread my name. Since the world is growing, it would be foolish of me not to grow. Plus, Limitless needs to stretch out to the immortal realm." I said with a grin, to which Gu Changga shook his head slightly.
"Well, go ahead. Stop by True Immortal Academy or the Gu clan to see me. You are the only friend I care to have." Gu Changga said with a smile, to which I just nodded while watching him disappear.
"..." Jasmine said nothing from start to finish, although the power she came from was a royal-grade power, the Gu clan was a power that could shake the realm of the god. Gu Changga if he wanted can just have the whole realm be flipped upside down with one word. This is why she was so quiet around Gu Changga, the gap in status between the two of them was huge.
So what if her father was an Immortal Sovereign? The Gu clan had a foundation that reached the primordial era, they had thousands of Immortal Sovereigns at level 10, many of which were elites capable of one-shotting those of the same level.
"Well, the little arrogant princess is scared? All arrogant before the weak, yet all cowardly when you're weak... I can never." I said with a look of disdain, making Jasmine's face turn red in both embarrassment and rage.
"I'm not scared!" She said angrily, to which I nodded with a look that said, I'm only agreeing with you to shut you up.
"Of course, you are not scared. You're super brave and strong." I said innocently, which enraged Jasmine. She gritted her teeth, wanting to eat someone alive. these 5 years she has been around me, she had been scared that she might develop heart problems or high blood pressure with just how angry she is all the time.
"Have you ever seen a dog barking behind a gate, but once the gate is gone the dog goes quiet?" I asked to which Jasmine shot towards me, angrily wanting to punch me, but she couldn't reach me... another fun fact, I didn't use Limitless in front of Gu Changga. He wouldn't have been able to touch me.
"Why are you attacking me? I'm just telling you something I just remembered... wait, did it remind you of something or someone?" I asked innocently, to which Jasmine angrily stumped to her feet, wanting to do nothing more than hit me. She used her stealth capability to the limit and tried to get past Infinity.
"Sigh, an immortal sovereign is truly impressive," I said softly as I couldn't sense Jasmine, adding the fact I had taught her to even hide from my instincts, this made her stealth capability truly impressive. Jasmine even went a step further, pushing her stealth capability to such a level that she could even hide from the memory within others. In other words, she could disappear from the memory of those around her.
"But it has two flaws, you should try and have it so that no one no matter the strength would also forget you. Try hiding your karma, hide from common sense, space and time, and so on. although it's far harder in your case." I said while a fist passed through Infinity, but before it could reach me, infinity took effect.
"Another flaw, you should try and remain hidden even while you attack. which is again, far harder in your case. take a step back and focus purely on martial arts, focus on hiding your move, confusing your opponent from reading your moves." I said while getting up, leaving Jasmine annoyed.
since I was too lazy to keep Infinity up all of the time, she could skillfully get past Infinity's self-activation while hiding herself from my instincts, but once my instincts could sense her, then Infinity would take effect no matter how close she was. so long as she wasn't touching me, it was pointless.
Jasmine hatefully glared at me, but she paused as my hand rested on her head,
"You're still growing, there is a lot about yourself that still needs to develop... those were the wrong words," I said while Jasmine's face turned ugly.
"Cough, I meant the mind. Are you going to be like Yun Che, headstrong and fearless? Or are you going to be your own person? Your mind should best suit the path you want to walk in the future. For example, are you the type who wants to get in close and throw punches? Are you the type to avoid combat altogether?" I asked while going on to do her hair, she didn't stop me as she liked the way I did her hair.
"... what did you mean that this world is adapting?" Jasmine asked to which I smiled.
"I'm a freak that broke the balance. The heavens are doing everything in their power to restore that balance, so everyone is growing stronger while I remain normal." I said with a smile, stunning Jasmine.
"I'm unsure how the heavens are doing this, what are the heaven's limits? How more freakish can I get? It's something I'm looking forward to seeing." I said with a smile. from the novels I have read, the heavens should have a limit. There might be a greater heaven beyond this heaven, someone might have even created this heaven, and the list went on. I couldn't wait to see things
"So, it's because of you cultivation seems easier?" She asked, to which I nodded slightly,
"Well, freaks amongst freaks would start popping up soon. Let's head to the immortal realm... so, go ahead and get higher-ups for me. We would spread our name by taking over the Star God realm." I said while tying her hair. Jasmine seeing as I was done her hair just snorted before walking off.
I sighedlightly, before rubbing my chin. I had a small beard growing, I couldn't wait to grow a godly beard and go on to gain a manly charm. Although I could speed this up with my Qi, I want it to happen naturally,
It didn't take long for everyone to soon arrive. By everyone, I meant Xia Qingyue, Xia Yuanba, Yun Che, Qin Wentian, Jasmine, Fen Juechen, Helian Xun, Xiao Lingxi, Mo Qingcheng, Huan Caiyi, and Feng Xue'er.
These were the most capable people within their field. Mo Qingcheng was the head of the Limitless Pill Hall, The Little Demon Empress Huan Caiyi was the head of the Limitless Star Hall, and Feng Xue'er was the head of the Limitless Flame Hall.
Xia Yuanba on the other hand was just an elder, he had no real position as he had nothing he was skilled in. But his growth capability was jaw-dropping as he was already a Saint King.
"My loyal subordinates, thank you for answering my call," I said while leaning forward to look at them, causing everyone to secretly roll their eyes.
"Going to the immortal realm right now might not be the best move. At the rate we are expanding, we need more manpower. but with more manpower, it means more risk of traitors within our organization. We also need more resources to cover the high numbers of members, thats not even adding the fact many organizations might soon aim to suppress us seeing our growth." Xia Qingyue said
"So, you're telling me none of you have trained anyone worthy enough to take over our position even after we are long gone? You're telling me, if we were just to disappear together, everything would fall apart?" I asked to which Xia Qingyue went quiet, as she was sure thats what she just said.
"Sigh, Bai Qing," I said calmly, and with a flash, Bai Qing appeared, stunning Qin Wentian seeing his childhood friend. She was like his little sister, she had up and disappeared 5 years ago to go training, and here she was, with an aura to rival a Quasi Heavenly Immortal.
"Wu Xian had taken me away for some training," She said with a smile, causing everyone to look at me with a weird look since this was out of character. I just ignored their looks and went on to speak.
"She would be the leader of Limitless in the lower realm, she would also be in contact with me, so I can come here if trouble befalls this place," I said with a bored yawn,
"Isn't that too much to throw onto her?" Qin Wentian said with a frown,
"Qin Wentian, I can do it. Trust me." Bai Qing said with a confident smile, which made Qin Wentian unsure as in his eyes, this was his little sister. how could she be up to the tasks of covering the whole lower realm?
"Plus, I wouldn't be alone." She said while looking to the side where Cang Yue appeared, which shocked Yun Che this time. This was his second wife after all. Cang Yue wasn't a cultivator, but she did have outstanding leadership skills,
"Go on and relax, we will look after everything down here." Cang Yue said with a gentle smile to Yun Che. I looked at Bai Qing with narrowed eyes, and she looked back at me with a frown.
Flash Back...
Within the Dreamworld, Bai Qing was on one knee, breathing heavily from training while looking at the spear stabbed through her chest. the man who held the spear disappeared, and Bai Qing fell on her stomach while her injuries disappeared. She rolled on her back and looked at the sky with a lost look.
'Should I use his cultivation art? No, I can't. Wu Xian has Black Grade talent, I have a light gray.' She thought while sitting up, she went on to return to her training. But no matter how much she trained to improve her martial arts, she died each time.
"You're trash." A voice suddenly appears out of nowhere, causing her to look over and see me just sitting back and watching her dying over and over. She was stunned seeing me, no one should be able to enter this place, it was her personal training ground.
"You're trash, what's the point of training? You should just return to Blue Star planet," I said with a shake of my head, causing Wu Xian to grit her teeth.
"If you came here to mock me, just leave." She said coldly, I shrugged lightly before getting up to leave.
"Okay, I was just here so you don't end up wasting the sect's time and space," I said while leaving, leaving Bai Qing burning in rage... she aimed all of it back into her training, but she was truly not that talented. her comprehension talent just wasn't that high, so she was truly slow in improving her martial arts.
"Damn!" Falling to her back, Bai Qing was almost in tears. What others did in a matter of a few dreams she needed hundreds of times the dreams. She hated the fact she was only in this sect because she was Qin Wentian friend. She wanted to walk on her own two feet, but it was not in her fate.
'How is he so capable? He has black-grade talent,' She thought her rage coming back, but this time aimed at herself for being so talentless. She was about to get up but paused seeing me standing over her.
"What do you want?" She asked coldly,
"I'm drawn to people who refuse to accept fate," I said with a smile, stunning Bai Qing who looked at me in confusion. I snapped my finger, and with a flash, Bai Qing found herself back in reality. She looked around her bedroom, and before she could do anything, I flashed, appearing there.
"You're not talented, so the best way for you to train is in reality, real life and death battles are what you need if you wish to fight. it would stimulate your brain, bring out your full potential." I said calmly,
"Why are you telling me this?" She asked, to which I shrugged.
"I will take you out to train, so long as your spirit remains strong, then you should live through it all," I said with a smile, to which Bai Qing hesitated for a moment, but she agreed... and she went on to regret that.
I threw her into a forest filled with powerful wild beasts. Sure, I limited their cultivation so they were just slightly stronger than her, but it didn't mean anything when she had no weapons, items, or anything. She lost count of how many times she cried in pain from losing a limb, or eyeball, or suffered from having her inner organs eaten while she was alive. She clawed, punched, and bit. She used everything in her power to survive...
"You can give up and go back any time." within a safe zone within the forest, I watched her cook her next meal. Every time she was in the blink of death, I came to bring her here and once she was fully healed, I threw her back out there
"... No, I'm starting to see why you enjoy these battles so much." She said with a grin, growing addicted to the sense of growing stronger with every battle. I didn't say anything and just closed my eyes to go to sleep and do my training.
Flash Back end.
I didn't know where she got Cang Yue, so I was confused. But seeing her giving me the look that said that she knew what she was doing, I shrugged and left it in her hands.
"Let's leave tomorrow, I want to ensure everything will be smooth." Xia Qingyue said emotionlessly, which made my eyes narrow as I knew she was lying. but with how I improved her martial arts, she was able to hide the real reason she wanted to leave tomorrow.
"Whatever," I said with a bored yawn while walking off, I could wait an extra day...
