It's just something I made up just now inspired by "the sniper". it was for an English assignment, made in just 4 hours of fucking around, chatting and YT. Also started at 12am.

Also I didn't, still don't, really care what grade I get.

The sun hadn't even cleared the horizon before Rykar and Loki excitedly dashed out of the room fully equipped as though ready for war. With Rob in tow, they quickly scanned their bracelets before descending the lift and venturing into the forest of bookshelves.

Being recognized immediately due to their extravagant masks, a librarian silently began to trail behind them with a silver cart after informing them that he would be waiting on them and willing to answer any questions. History, mathematics, statistics, culture, science, weaponry, biology, farming. Walking through just two of the hundreds of bookshelves, they were already baffled as to which topics to explore while recited the titles of any books they pointed to on the shelves.

Growing annoyed of the aimless searching, he took the initiative to turn towards the librarian. "Excuse me, where can we find books related to exploration? Mainly focusing on geography, animals, plants. Information on fragments and worlds, along with travel information are also needed." While speaking a thousand times more refined than usual, he straightened his back while attempting to put on a façade of someone who could actually afford his getup. 

It didn't even take two seconds of thought before the woman smiled and lead them just a few shelves across. "This row, along with the next two, house books which are mainly focused on the world around us, the sea of stars and more of the commonplace flora and fauna. Please let me know if there are any specifics you are interested in and I will do my best to help."

Like kids in a candy store, the twins no longer even asked Rob any questions as they pulled books off the shelves and looked at the covers with glistening eyes. There were an assortment of designs, some very abstract, while others giving a clear idea of the contents of the book. Plants, animals, mythical looking beasts, stars, swirling clouds. These books were piled up on the cart one after the other while the more blank and dull designs were put back on the shelves without suspense.     

It wasn't long before there was a second librarian right next to the first, along with a second trolley due to the first being too full. While one went to take the first set of books to their study, the second was also half full when the next question came from Rykar. "Where are the story books? With generals and armies!" 

Barely containing his excitement, he only calmed down slightly when Rob tugged his shoulder to get him to stop skipping while they followed the librarian across the shelves once again. 

"Just these shelves?" He asked when they arrived at a quieter section of the library. This was a walkway dozens of metres long and with books lining the sides, yet it didn't seem to be even a drop in the ocean compared to all the shelves they had walked past to get there. Despite the grand scale, Rykar seemed disappointed that they only took up such a small section, even with this much already being enough to keep him occupied for years.

"No, this whole section is. From this isle, to the end of the wall. This is allocated to the both factual and fictional based stories and poetry." The librarian corrected. 

Almost on cue, the twins once again went into a frenzy, picking all the fancy looking books and especially those with plenty of pictures, illustrations and diagrams within. It took the longest hour of Rob's life before they finally went back up to their rooms after having sent up four trolleys of books between the two librarians tasked to them.  

With their first meal already set up on the table, there was no suspense as Chance got them to finish eating before gathering around the table once again.  

Without allowing them to dive straight into their story books, Chance first took the opportunity to go through the books related to the world around them and before selecting one to read between them. With the book in hand and the twins at either side, he read through the book slowly. Without rushing or ignoring any of their questions, he pointed out the letters and words as he went, making sure that he explained how the words were formed and giving them an understanding of the mess of shapes sprawled across the paper. 

Amazingly enough, as many of the key words were repeated, the twins were already able to see some patterns in the shorter and less complex sentences, piecing together one or two words within a sentence by the end of the first chapter which came to amaze both Rob and Chance. They were practically sponges when it came to learning anything! 

It took till noon to go through the first two books, with barely a break even to get a drink as Chance started feeling his throat get sore with the incessant questions from the other three in the room. Most of the questions they asked, he was just as clueless as them towards the answers. Despite this, their horizons were expanded again and again as gasps of astonishment often broke the flow of reading. 

The world system within the sea of stars was the easiest to explain, with a simply yet meticulous way of categorizing the grade boundaries. The sea of stars was virtually endless, while constantly expanding and growing around itself. Changes would occur at every and any moment, oftentimes throwing entire solar systems into chaos before reforming themselves or simply becoming desolate space. 

Ever light within the sky, usually referred to as stars, were actually entire worlds! The light being emitted from them was actually a form of energy which was emitted from the condensation of energy which forms their world boundary. This 'world boundary' was a form of protection and isolation which served as the benchmark of a planet becoming a world.

Before this boundary was formed, planets weren't even qualified to me mapped out by official channels oftentimes, as they were still classed as being within development and may be abandoned at any time. Grace, the planet they were on, was a perfect example of this.  

Despite the habitable atmosphere for life and civilization, the planet was all but devoid of energy, potentially requiring up to a thousand years before accumulating enough to support its cataclysm, propelling itself to form its own boundary while expanding dramatically in size. 

Generally, after each cataclysm, a world would increase its grade by one, however, there have been many cases of a world going through a small scale cataclysm. While this would still cause its barrier to develop and increase its size, this wouldn't be enough to qualify the world for the next grade. There was no glorification for this, it was simply referred to as a failed cataclysm. The cons of this situation often outweighed the pros, as each cataclysm requires a much vaster accumulation of energy compared to the last. 

Omega, the largest and only recorded rank 9 world was literally at the centre of the sea, with the rest of the sea expanding from the centre around it. Due to the pull gravitational from Omega, the larger the planet, along with the strength of its boundary, causes the more prosperous worlds to congregate towards the centre of the sea. 

Contrary to their initial expectations of the larger worlds being in the centre and the smaller ones being on the periphery of the sea, the worlds themselves were surrounded by other planets and worlds, with the orbits of which crossing over and switching zones often. This all caused the sea to have a volatile nature with each world usually supporting the flow of various smaller ones within its influence.

All in all, where they were now, on an offshoot planet under the control of the corporation 'Grace', there were living on nothing but a grain of sand within a sea bidder than they could imagine.

Their only reason the company invested in this planet in the first place was due to the naturally formed fragment, which only needed minimal investment to stabilize its eco-system. This was essentially getting two worlds for the cost of one, while providing a safe and secure environment for the essence fruit plantation. Despite its size, it was apparent that the plant was only in its initial stages, with the growth of the plants and replantation of a portion of the fruits from each harvest, the project would sweep through the rest of the fragment in its entirety. 

The reason they were slowly picking off the escapees was because there was no rush in the first place! They were literally stuck within the same cage they thought they had gotten out of and eventually they would have no place to go along with the expansion of activity. With the escapees serving punishments, this would prompt order and stability within the camp, providing a new bottom tier and giving those already working there, a sense of superiority. All this came at the price of a few workers 'escaping' every month due to the security 'dropping their guard'. 

They thought their sense of the world had expanded, until they moved onto some of the basic geography and found out that not only worlds, but cities were classified by the grade system also. What was laughable, was that the 'city' they were living in was actually an outpost for the expansion into this planet. It honestly didn't even quality as a grade one city, without many of the basic systems in place to even function as one. 

By the time lunch rolled round, it felt as though the informative books they had been reading were more like story books and fantasy works. Their expectations towards leaving the planet and venturing onto Grace were actually dulled by the context of the book, leaving them skeptical to the possibilities of it all. 

"Rob, pick a book for them to read through for the next hour or two. I need to go get something but ill be back in no time." Chance patted his stomach while donning his mask and gesturing to the others to do the same before as he made his way towards the door. 

"Where are you going?" Loki asked. He felt it weird to only be a day into their 'study' yet Chance was breaking the rule he set for them, not to leave the library. 

"I have to get back to the sewers and pic something up. I would have brought it earlier but it really couldn't be helped." He sighed as he made his way out but it didn't take long for them to busy themselves as Rob threw a book towards Rob. Catching it reflexively, he found himself holding a thick tomb with its cover depicting a dragon breathing a jet of fire towards a knight in full armour. 

"This one." Both twins grinned excitedly. 

What is a moral compass?

When does good turn into evil and when is doing the bad things for a good result, the right thing to do? 

Is 'justice' righteous or should it be to 'live and let live'?

if surviving means becoming a sin itself, should you accept death? 

Is it wrong to sacrifice a million strangers for one you hold dear? 

Two youths, twisted and guided by their environment and encounters, find themselves as the eye of the eclipse proliferates with them at the very centre. 

Trauma and hardship can forge the most unbreakable characters, but in that process, there is a fine line between unbreakable and utterly broken beyond repair.

Before Wei Xu left, the only thing he didn't explain clearly was the ball of golden light that entered his soul ocean.
When Zong Shou used his consciousness to investigate, he saw that there was a 9-story golden pagoda floating above his soul power whirlpool.
It was pressing on those few true spiritual talismans, repressing on his entire soul.
Zong Shou tried to send some consciousness within it, but he was startled.
He could observe that 9 story pagoda, but when he got close he realized that this thing didn't exist.
Items that were given by saint realm experts weren't ordinary. Just from the token and the jade letter, one could tell.
However, what was this 9-story golden pagoda? What was its function?
There seemed to be no changes to his soul, if he had to point out what was different then it seemed more stable.
...no wait, stable?
Zong Shou's heart moved slightly as he scattered his consciousness. Then, a smile appeared on his face.
He saw that around his soul, those holes on the verge of breaking were suddenly solidifying under the mysterious force.
Some of them were even healing.
The entire process was extremely slow. If it wasn't for him purposely focusing, he wouldn't have been able to notice anything at all.
This treasure that Wei Xu gave him was a really rare soul fixing treasure!
To fix and heal his soul which was on the verge of breaking, it could take ten to a hundred years but at least he saw some hope. And the solidifying of his soul by this golden pagoda was something he could sense.
He didn't need to worry about the catastrophic outcome if this soul ocean whirlpool suddenly broke.
He didn't need to be so terrified and worry day and night.
Zong Shou still couldn't figure out any of the deeper functions, but to be able to find out this was already enough.
However thinking about it carefully, the 3 spiritual artifacts that Wei Xu gave him all couldn't be used for battle.
The teleportation jade letter allowed him to teleport between Gantian Mountain and common people vast habitat, at a dangerous time to escape.
The token, apart from being the sect symbol, was to hide his identity.
If he was willing, then even grade 9 spiritual grandmasters wouldn't remember his true face.
As for this 9-story golden pagoda, he could only toss it in the soul ocean and not bother about it.
To him, these 3 items were all useful. However, they didn't help him to improve combat strength.
Frowning, Zong Shou picked up a fist-sized bag from his sleeves.
This was what Wei Xu gave him before he left, small heaven and earth-bag that he wanted for so long.
His mind reaching into it, Zong Shou was speechless. Not only were there no useable spiritual artifacts within, but even pills and medicine were also extremely small.
The only fortunate thing would be that the tens of Pill bottles were all rare items.
The unique spiritual pills to the common people path were extremely famous in the cloud world. Even Pill Fountain sect, which was famous for Pill refining, was far from them in terms of same type pills.
Next would be a few golden jade tokens which were similar to his own. It was all empty and didn't have a carved name. They were the most basic grade 3 spiritual artifacts and had protection ability. Naturally, it didn't have the same ability as his own.
There were a total of 4, and the identities were all carved out in advance, main sect disciples of the common people path.
Zong Shou didn't understand, but a moment later, he was enlightened before he scoffed.
If he was right, these tokens were left for Chuxue and Zong Yuan.
With his saint realm ability, how couldn't he see the potential of Chuxue's combat martial body?
As for purple lightning spear Zong Yuan, his fame spread out far and wide.
To want to draw both of them in but not even give a decent magical artifact. What wishful thinking!
He made his mind up to not let these tokens see the light of day. His soul was fixed on 2 other things.
The entire small heaven and earth-bag was roughly 2 thousand feet wide within, the highest quality. Compared to a small city, it was huge.
However, apart from those few items, it was empty. Only a portion of books was stacked up in the corner.
Located above was 2 purple gold books. Different from the others. Only these 2 had spiritual energy and didn't look ordinary.
One of them was the insight mysterious lightning body training art and the other was the great sky changing meditation technique.
Zong Shou immediately took these 2 books out of the small heaven and earth-bag.
Just slightly looking at it, he realized that the 2 were locked by spiritual energy. Forcefully opening would only cause it to destroy itself.
Frowning as he thought about it, Zong Shou took out the Sect token. He placed it on the book and as expected a golden light shone and the books opened by itself. 　　
The first to open was the insight mysterious lightning body training art. The first line of words that entered his eyes made him stunned.
Who knows who made this, but the words were extremely sharp, killing intent surging into the heavens.
...this book is the top body cultivation method of the common people path for main sect direct disciples to learn. Other inner disciples of the other sects of the path need the sect leader guarantee before you can train in it. If disciples teach it privately or spread to outsiders, they will be killed!"
Zong Shou's eyelids twitched as he flipped to a next page. In just a moment joy appeared on his face.
This book recorded a really special inner body observation technique know as the spirit observing technique, allowing one that whilst they looked inside their body they could enter the "down to the smallest detail" realm in a short amount of time.
This was truly unique in terms of such techniques.
However, since this was a body training art so the main use was to train the body.
The so-called spirit detail observing technique was just to support. Allowing one to use lightning to train up and stimulate the body.
Based on the explanation on the 1st page, this book could be listed in the top 10 Saint spirit level cultivation methods.
In the common people path, it did indeed have the rights to be listed as a great body training method!
Zong Shou took in a deep breath. In the last life, he spent so much wort before being as to find 2 legendary grade and 1 earth crushing realm techniques before he reached the ascended realm.
Now, just as he entered the sect, a grade 10 martial technique had easily entered his hand.
Using the power of lightning to train the body. Ten thousand years later people had tried to use various machines to achieve that.
However, the first important point of this was that the martial cultivator had to have an important understanding of each part of the body and each cell.
At least during that technologically advanced era, no one truly succeeded.
Moreover, this martial technique's core point was the spirit detail observing technique.
Naturally, this technique also had high demands. One's mind had to be strong, and one had to have absolute control of lightning. With these conditions, he was a great fit.
Zong Shou's memory was shocking, and in just a moment, he memorized it all. He suppressed the thought of immediately trying it out as he took the great sky changing meditation technique in his hand.
The body training art in front had surprised him. As for this one, Zong Shou was naturally filled with anticipation.
After opening it, it was still that killing warning. It was also a secret manual that only common people path direct disciples could learn.
Zong Shou couldn't wait, flipping to the next page. Glancing 10 lines at a time as he swiftly memorized it. Then, the joy in his eyes got thicker and thicker.
This book had nothing to do with the martial path, it was a spirit master meditation technique. It was also a saint spirit realm technique like the previous one.
The greatest difference of this secret manual and normal meditation techniques was that this one was unable to strengthen the spirit master's control of specific or many types of spiritual energy. Instead, it improved the soul from a natural level to strengthen it to greatly increase the calculation and simulation ability.
If one's simulation ability was strong enough, once the soul reached the day wandering realm one would have an Ability-copy and replicate.
Instantly replicating a spell, even a martial path intent. As long as it didn't exceed one's grade, there wouldn't be a time-lapse.
...This also meant it could be used during battle!
Thinking about it, when the enemy used spells or secret techniques he didn't need to form any hand signs or talismans or have any preparation. If he sensed it, then he would be able to replicate it.
He placed the 2 secret manuals back into the small heaven and earth-bag.
Then his face scrunched up, almost as if he was struggling.
A moment later, he sighed slightly as he took out the 2 golden jade tokens. On it, he carved Su Chuxue and Zong Yuan.
From today on, they would be considered inner sect disciples of the common people path main sect.
If they could enter the ascended realm, they would have the ability to enter the mysterious life golden book.
As such, one could see that Wei Xu had high hopes for them.
Zong Shou gritted his teeth in hatred. He wanted to hold them hostage and bargain with the sect to get some benefits. Wei Xu just simply threw 2 secret manuals and he yielded.
This insight mysterious lightning body training art and the great sky changing meditation technique were both suitable for him.
However, on closer look, it was like Wei Xu specially picked them out for Zong Yuan and Chuxue.
Zong Yuan practiced a lightning type cultivation method and comprehended the maniac lightning spear intent. Using the insight mysterious lightning body training art his strength would rise quickly.
Chuxue, although she had a combat martial body, couldn't just solely rely on that to fight.
Great sky changing meditation technique could improve one's spiritual cultivation talents and also one's calculation ability. In the future, it would help to solve the problem of her being unable to learn a single deep talisman.
He was the 2nd generation 7th direct disciple of the common people path main sect. After he entered, he automatically became an elder.
As long as both of them became inner disciples of the main sect, with him guaranteeing, it completed the conditions mentioned on the first page.
To say it was a coincidence... even if you beat him to death, he wouldn't believe it. His senior brother was so scheming!
He scoffed coldly before he hesitated. Following which he took out a yellow jade token and carved on it Zong Ruoshui.　


Zong Shou awakened from a dream and realised that he had crossed into a world 10,000 years in the past. An era before the God Emperor appeared.
What is a God Emperor? Invincible in all parts of the universe, the ruler of the world!
Zong Shou who was half human half monster, with such a weak body, would begin his journey here. To rise up in this bloody and heartless era, onto a path of lustful life surrounded by beauties, looking down on all life with disdain.

I have never been at the same school long. In kindergarten I was in one school. Then in 1st I moved to a different school. In 2nd I went to another, and in 3&4 grades I went the same school. In 5th I went to the same school as kindergarten. In 6th I went to an IB and in 7&8& currently 9th, I went to a really good school that everyone in the city wants to go to. 

I wasn't all that upset at switching from the IB to my current school because I could be in the current school until I graduate high school. But around 6th grade I learned the lesson that karma was trying to teach me, but I went about correcting the mistakes the wrong way. 

I shut my self down. I slowly closed my self off. Turned into an introvert. I went from that dirty minded, wild, fun, moody girl to a closed off, shy, quiet, book loving, heartless and cold girl. It was hard. In 6th grade I wasn't that bad, but when I transferred to 7th it got really bad. I couldn't even make eye contact. It was awful. I would stay away from everyone and read my book. I would get lost in my own mind. Even to this day, my mind is my safe spot. I started to call myself, the new me; and the wild girl, the old me.

Even when I was the old me, I always loved books. I love getting lost in a story that makes me feel like I'm on a cloud. I like to call it book drunk. When I get book drunk, I barely register what I'm doing. Like a robot. I get good grades from memorizing what's taught and stuff, but I barely notice it. I sit there in class and think about my book and fantasy's. It's a wonderful feeling. 

In 8th grade I made a really good friend, I call her Kimmy; as in Kimmy Gibler. My step mom came up with it because Kimmy always acts like Kimmy Gibler from Fuller House. Sure I had friends in 7th grade, but the only thing we had in common was the Harry Potter books so I distanced myself from them. To be honest, they were boring to me. Like I care about make-up, boys, and all that junk. To me that's all useless.

My birthday is in the beginning of the year, it sucks because I'm always one of  the oldest; either at home or at school. I never get a break. Well anyways, a few days before my birthday I entered this amazing world. I slowly became an otaku! Today I am really deep in the otaku world. I opened the doors of yaoi, the hardcore and softcore. I have no regrets.

Kimmy doesn't understand me at all. She is really strict with her religion and she has really strict parents. She thinks yaoi is gross, it's infuriating. But I just learned to stop bringing it up. She locked the doors yaoi and threw away the key.

Do you believe in karma? Well, the main character of this short story does. Read how karma affects her life. How she gets punished by her mistakes. See how her lives changes over and over again. First love, family feuds, oldest of many siblings, and a hard life for the lead. There are no names in the novel. I’m not very good at that stuff, sorry about that.

"Oh, I see… Mother, those 3 books which you mentioned earlier, can I find them in our library?" Qing Shui eagerly asked.
　　The 3 books that Qing Yi mentioned were not rare or valuable books, they could in fact be considered relatively common. Just from the titles of these books, one could tell that the knowledge recorded in them was elementary knowledge on herbs that served as the foundation of an alchemist's knowledge.
　　"Therefore, copies of these books are extremely commonplace, even commoners that do not belong to any clans will have a copy of them. Almost all of the adults in Qing Village have flipped through the contents of the 3 books, memorizing it as much as possible. After all, when they are out hunting or foraging in the wilds, with luck they might be able to discover valuable herbs which they might overlook if not for the knowledge from the books." Qing Shui explained, with hints of curiousity in her eyes as she looked at Qing Shui.
　　After learning from Qing Yi that the copies of &lt;&gt;, &lt;&gt; and the &lt;&gt; were extremely widespread, Qing Shui could confirm that the knowledge within these books was at most elementary knowledge that made up the foundation of an alchemist. If the books were rare and valuable, how would so many people be able to have access to them?
　　Since Qing Shui had already decided that he wanted to become an alchemist, he decided to take the chance now to read the books containing information pertaining to the art of alchemy. Since there was nothing he could do to facilitate his breakthrough to the 4th layer of Ancient Strengthening Technique at the moment, Qing Shui wanted to obtain the chance to gain more insights into the art of alchemy, he wanted to read more and find out if the alchemy he knew from [Western Fantasy] was similar to the one they practiced in World of the Nine Continents.
　　"Qing Shui, why the sudden interest in reading?" Qing Yi could sense that Qing Shui had a burning curiosity regarding the knowledge these books contained.
　　"Keke, Mother, you are in the medicinal herbs business, I wish to understand more about herbs so that I will be able to assist you. Who knows, I may even become an alchemist in the future as well. Qing Shui said half-jokingly.
　　"You little brat, how could it be so easy for one to become an alchemist." Qing Yi smiled gently. "Nevermind, we will look towards the future, after all, a moment of oppression counts for nothing. As the saying goes: one must suffer before one can accomplish great things." Qing Yi warmly said as she rubbed Qing Shui's hair. Looking at Qing Yi, Qing Shui once again felt the greatness of motherly love..
　　"Mother, I am planning to leave Qing Village in the next few days. I want to see the outside world. After all, I'm already 15, and I have never even stepped out of Qing Village before! People would label me as a country bumpkin if they knew." Qing Shui yearned for the world outside immensely. He also knew that bringing this topic up would cause Qing Yi to worry about him, after all, his strength was supposedly only at the level of 3rd grade of the Blue Lotus Art.
　　Qing Yi furrowed her brows in worry and blamed herself in her heart. She blamed herself for not bringing Qing Shui along when she went to Hundred Miles City. Qing Yi was afraid that Qing Shui might become overly intrigued by the beautiful sights outside of Qing Village and refuse to return! He was bound to suffer and get bullied outside of Qing Village with the meager bit of strength he possessed."
　　What Qing Yi didn't know was that Qing Shui's mental state had already matured to the state of an adult a long time ago. Pain and suffering? What are those? Before true determination, those are nothing! Qing Shui had long since understood that, in this world where cultivation was key, the strong ruled over everything. Power is the most absolute authority, while strength determined a person's status. It was the same throughout the ages.
　　Looking at Qing Yi's furrowed eyebrows, Qing Shui knew that she was worrying about him. This was also expected.. If he wanted to leave the village, he would have to come out with a reasonable excuse.
　　"Mother, are you worried that I will be bullied?" Qing Shui blinked his eyes, seemingly innocently, trying to make the atmosphere less edgy. After all, all children are close to the heart of their parents, how could Qing Shui not understand Qing Yi's worry for him.
　　"Hmm, Qing Shui, how about this? Just stay here for a few months longer, after I become less busy, I will accompany you to tour the outside world together, alright?" Qing Yi felt bitter in her heart. After all, a large clan like the Qing Clan needs plenty of capital to operate. Her medicinal business in the Hundred Miles City was imperative to the survival of the Qing Clan. In addition, recently there had been a a huge business transaction taking place. Hints of hesitation appeared in her heart, because on one hand she wanted to accompany Qing Shui, while on the other hand, she would need to conclude this business transaction personally.
　　Qing Shui went over and comforted Qing Yi, as he could see that Qing Yi was torn between the two fronts.
　　"Mother, actually I am not as weak as I appear to be, I have something that I always wanted to tell you." Qing Shui started to squirm uncomfortably, he could not tell the whole truth, but he needed something close to that, something which also sounded reasonable so as to allow Qing Yi to believe him.
　　"Oh, you little brat, after you grew up you decided to play tricks on your mother uh?" Qing Shui smiled as slightly berated Qing Shui. "Okay, go ahead, tell me what is it that you are hiding."
　　After Qing Shui saw the smile appear on Qing Yi's face, he knew that this was a good thing, if he could successfully convince Qing Yi now, he would have the chance to explore the world outside of Qing Village.
　　"Five years ago, at the bottom of the western mountains, I met an extremely ancient man. After seeing me, the old man laughed and said that this was a chance meeting, he had a feeling that this must be an arrangement of destiny! The old man reviewed my cultivation techniques and said that the strengthening technique I was currently practicing was not suited for myself. After that, he taught me a set of strengthening techniques that would not only be able to refine my tendons and bones, but also massively increase my level of strength! In addition, before he left, he also imparted to me a set of fist techniques. Back then, I was young and ignorant and didn't really understood much. However, I practiced the techniques the old man taught me and have gained some small success within the last 5 years. Now that 5 years has passed, I regret not learning more from him. Because now that I think about it, he must have been a Xian Tian cultivator!" Qing Shui hurriedly sprouted out a whole bunch of crap, mixing in some elements of the truth.
　　Qing Yi held an unbelieving gaze in her eyes as she discovered the many glaring loopholes of the story Qing Shui explained. However, she still silently let him finish.
　　"You said that you had some small success after cultivating for 5 years, so what is your actual strength now?" Qing Yi appreciated that Qing Shui was trying to make her feel less worried. However, she hoped what Qing Shui said was true!
　　"Hmm the old man didn't say so I am not really sure what level my strength has reached. However, I can say for certain that currently, my strength can be counted within the top 20 of the 3rd generation disciples" Qing Shui didn't dare to tell Qing Yi about his true strength.
　　"Since it is like this, and seeing how confident you are, Mother shall suppress her strength to Martial Warrior, 6th grade and have a small competition with you." Qing Yi said with anticipation. She could not wait to find out how much had Qing Shui grown in these 5 years.
　　Qing Shui smiled with elation in his heart, his scheme had succeeded "If I manage to win, can mother grant me permission to leave Qing Village?"
　　Qing Yi hesitated for awhile, looking at the confident expression on Qing Shui's face, she was uncertain if she should be happy or sad. She was worried that Qing Shui might end up the victor, but she also hoped that he would win, proving to everyone that his strength level could be comparable to Martial Warrior, 6th grade! The stronger he was, the better! This meant that he would have the ability to protect himself when he is journeying outside Qing Village.
　　Qing Yi gave Qing Shui an ultimatum. "Defeat me and you will have my permission!" Although, her heart was thinking that if Qing Shui proved to be stronger than expected, she would just stealthily increase her strength accordingly.
　　Qing Shui beamed, with a wide smile on his face. "Okay, I am ready!"
　　Qing Yi was at the realm of Martial Commander, 8th Grade, if Qing Yi suppressed her strength to Martial Warrior, 6th grade, then he was absolutely certain that she would not be a match for him.

A human warrior cultivating the Ancient Strengthening Technique has transcended dimensions and arrived on Kyushu. Together with twelve ravishing beauties with looks that were unmatched in their generation, will he be able to stand on the summit of this world?

This novel is about the main character, named Qing Shui, who transcended dimensions and arrived in the Kyushu continent. Storms of blood and wind, resulting in corpses and bones strewn about are extremely common here. The young warrior Qing Shui forged ahead in his path to cultivate, using 10 years to train himself, only to seek vengeance for the one who had forsaken his mother!

"Oh, I see… Mother, those 3 books which you mentioned earlier, can I find them in our library?" Qing Shui eagerly asked.

The 3 books that Qing Yi mentioned were not rare or valuable books, they could in fact be considered relatively common. Just from the titles of these books, one could tell that the knowledge recorded in them was elementary knowledge on herbs that served as the foundation of an alchemist's knowledge.

"Therefore, copies of these books are extremely commonplace, even commoners that do not belong to any clans will have a copy of them. Almost all of the adults in Qing Village have flipped through the contents of the 3 books, memorizing it as much as possible. After all, when they are out hunting or foraging in the wilds, with luck they might be able to discover valuable herbs which they might overlook if not for the knowledge from the books." Qing Yi explained, with hints of curiousity in her eyes as she looked at Qing Shui.

After learning from Qing Yi that the copies of <<Continental Medical Annal>>, <<10,000 Herbology Encyclopedia>> and the <<Herbal Combination Formula>> were extremely widespread, Qing Shui could confirm that the knowledge within these books was at most elementary knowledge that made up the foundation of an alchemist. If the books were rare and valuable, how would so many people be able to have access to them?

Since Qing Shui had already decided that he wanted to become an alchemist, he decided to take the chance now to read the books containing information pertaining to the art of alchemy. Since there was nothing he could do to facilitate his breakthrough to the 4th layer of Ancient Strengthening Technique at the moment, Qing Shui wanted to obtain the chance to gain more insights into the art of alchemy, he wanted to read more and find out if the alchemy he knew from [Western Fantasy] was similar to the one they practiced in World of the Nine Continents.

"Qing Shui, why the sudden interest in reading?" Qing Yi could sense that Qing Shui had a burning curiosity regarding the knowledge these books contained.

"Keke, Mother, you are in the medicinal herbs business, I wish to understand more about herbs so that I will be able to assist you. Who knows, I may even become an alchemist in the future as well. Qing Shui said half-jokingly.

"You little brat, how could it be so easy for one to become an alchemist." Qing Yi smiled gently. "Nevermind, we will look towards the future, after all, a moment of oppression counts for nothing. As the saying goes: one must suffer before one can accomplish great things." Qing Yi warmly said as she rubbed Qing Shui's hair. Looking at Qing Yi, Qing Shui once again felt the greatness of motherly love..

"Mother, I am planning to leave Qing Village in the next few days. I want to see the outside world. After all, I'm already 15, and I have never even stepped out of Qing Village before! People would label me as a country bumpkin if they knew." Qing Shui yearned for the world outside immensely. He also knew that bringing this topic up would cause Qing Yi to worry about him, after all, his strength was supposedly only at the level of 3rd grade of the Blue Lotus Art.

Qing Yi furrowed her brows in worry and blamed herself in her heart. She blamed herself for not bringing Qing Shui along when she went to Hundred Miles City. Qing Yi was afraid that Qing Shui might become overly intrigued by the beautiful sights outside of Qing Village and refuse to return! He was bound to suffer and get bullied outside of Qing Village with the meager bit of strength he possessed."

What Qing Yi didn't know was that Qing Shui's mental state had already matured to the state of an adult a long time ago. Pain and suffering? What are those? Before true determination, those are nothing! Qing Shui had long since understood that, in this world where cultivation was key, the strong ruled over everything. Power is the most absolute authority, while strength determined a person's status. It was the same throughout the ages.

Looking at Qing Yi's furrowed eyebrows, Qing Shui knew that she was worrying about him. This was also expected.. If he wanted to leave the village, he would have to come out with a reasonable excuse.

"Mother, are you worried that I will be bullied?" Qing Shui blinked his eyes, seemingly innocently, trying to make the atmosphere less edgy. After all, all children are close to the heart of their parents, how could Qing Shui not understand Qing Yi's worry for him.

"Hmm, Qing Shui, how about this? Just stay here for a few months longer, after I become less busy, I will accompany you to tour the outside world together, alright?" Qing Yi felt bitter in her heart. After all, a large clan like the Qing Clan needs plenty of capital to operate. Her medicinal business in the Hundred Miles City was imperative to the survival of the Qing Clan. In addition, recently there had been a a huge business transaction taking place. Hints of hesitation appeared in her heart, because on one hand she wanted to accompany Qing Shui, while on the other hand, she would need to conclude this business transaction personally.

Qing Shui went over and comforted Qing Yi, as he could see that Qing Yi was torn between the two fronts.

"Mother, actually I am not as weak as I appear to be, I have something that I always wanted to tell you." Qing Shui started to squirm uncomfortably, he could not tell the whole truth, but he needed something close to that, something which also sounded reasonable so as to allow Qing Yi to believe him.

"Oh, you little brat, after you grew up you decided to play tricks on your mother uh?" Qing Shui smiled as slightly berated Qing Shui. "Okay, go ahead, tell me what is it that you are hiding."

After Qing Shui saw the smile appear on Qing Yi's face, he knew that this was a good thing, if he could successfully convince Qing Yi now, he would have the chance to explore the world outside of Qing Village.

"Five years ago, at the bottom of the western mountains, I met an extremely ancient man. After seeing me, the old man laughed and said that this was a chance meeting, he had a feeling that this must be an arrangement of destiny! The old man reviewed my cultivation techniques and said that the strengthening technique I was currently practicing was not suited for myself. After that, he taught me a set of strengthening techniques that would not only be able to refine my tendons and bones, but also massively increase my level of strength! In addition, before he left, he also imparted to me a set of fist techniques. Back then, I was young and ignorant and didn't really understood much. However, I practiced the techniques the old man taught me and have gained some small success within the last 5 years. Now that 5 years has passed, I regret not learning more from him. Because now that I think about it, he must have been a Xian Tian cultivator!" Qing Shui hurriedly sprouted out a whole bunch of crap, mixing in  some elements of the truth.

Qing Yi held an unbelieving gaze in her eyes as she discovered the many glaring loopholes of the story Qing Shui explained. However, she still silently let him finish.

"You said that you had some small success after cultivating for 5 years, so what is your actual strength now?" Qing Yi appreciated that Qing Shui was trying to make her feel less worried. However, she hoped what Qing Shui said was true!

"Hmm the old man didn't say so I am not really sure what level my strength has reached. However, I can say for certain that currently, my strength can be counted within the top 20 of the 3rd generation disciples" Qing Shui didn't dare to tell Qing Yi about his true strength.

"Since it is like this, and seeing how confident you are, Mother shall suppress her strength to Martial Warrior, 6th grade and have a small competition with you." Qing Yi said with anticipation. She could not wait to find out how much had Qing Shui grown in these 5 years.

Qing Shui smiled with elation in his heart, his scheme had succeeded "If I manage to win, can mother grant me permission to leave Qing Village?"

Qing Yi hesitated for awhile, looking at the confident expression on Qing Shui's face, she was uncertain if she should be happy or sad. She was worried that Qing Shui might end up the victor, but she also hoped that he would win, proving to everyone that his strength level could be comparable to Martial Warrior, 6th grade! The stronger he was, the better! This meant that he would have the ability to protect himself when he is journeying outside Qing Village.

Qing Yi gave Qing Shui an ultimatum. "Defeat me and you will have my permission!" Although, her heart was thinking that if Qing Shui proved to be stronger than expected, she would just stealthily increase her strength accordingly.

Qing Shui beamed, with a wide smile on his face. "Okay, I am ready!"

Qing Yi was at the realm of Martial Commander, 8th Grade, if Qing Yi suppressed her strength to Martial Warrior, 6th grade,  then he was absolutely certain that she would not be a match for him.

In order to research this, Gu Zuo was considered deliriously busy. He basically studied each and every hand seal. After studying it, he still needed to try refining a cauldron of pills, and then he recorded the performances of each attempt. In this way, after a period of chaos, he finally chose three medicine refinement hand seals.
These three hand seals were all pill refining types. No matter if it was medicinal decoctions or cuisines, they shouldn't have appeared in the Tianwu Continent so quickly — Otherwise, the social upheaval would be too great. 
Thus, after Gu Zuo made his comparisons, <<He Clan's Pill Refining Seal>> was set as a low grade pill seal, <<Minor Seal: Heavenly Wind>> was set as a mid grade pill seal, and <<Python Dragon Pill Refining Seal>> was set as a high grade pill seal. He had Dragon Two, who was equally adept at copying, transcribe them into three thin books to be left as backups.
The three pill seals would all be guaranteed to suit the refined medicinal pills for martial artists at the Immortal realm and below. As for the even higher leveled ones, the success rates were extremely low.

For the Gongyi Clan, it was also for the best.
— It was easy to make money with, but not something they couldn't protect. 
After handling this, Gu Zuo asked about Tianheng's recent whereabouts.
 
 
Dragon Two received lots of news from Dragon One over there. The moment Dragon Two heard him ask, he naturally explained everything from beginning to end.
Gu Zuo listened, and was very satisfied.
Once these three medicine refinement hand seals were put forth, all of the Gongyi Clan's pharmacists would learn them. Afterwards, the Gongyi Clan's medicinal pills would certainly be several grades higher than the pills of the other clans. At that time, wouldn't wealth be pouring in from all directions?
 
 
It wasn't long before Tianheng returned.

It was in the afternoon, and two days had already passed.
When Gu Zuo saw Tianheng, he immediately scampered over with three books in his hands: "Big brother, take a look. They're the ones I selected. What do you think?"
Tianheng took them and unceremoniously flipped through the books. Following which, he grinned: "Ah Zuo's selection naturally puts me at ease. In Tianwu Continent, perhaps there isn't a single person who has mastered the path of medicine refinement more than Ah Zuo." 
Gu Zuo was a little embarrassed: "Big brother, don't heap praises on me."
Tianheng laughed, but sure enough, he stopped praising him.
Time was limited. Tianheng originally returned this time to bring back several medicine refinement hand seals to set up. Gu Zuo already did it in advance, so it was only natural that after he hurriedly discussed a few sentences, he turned around and walked away.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to remind Gu Zuo that these pill refining hand seals would've been previously obtained along with that prescription for the <<Five-Element Meridian Replenishing Decoction>>. Just the content alone was too earth-shattering. Under no circumstances would he dare take them out lightly. It was because these hand seals were indeed useful, and the sect was an even higher existence, that he was prepared to take out what would later be the Gongyi Clan's treasured skills.

Gu Zuo bore this in mind seriously, and nodded his head: "Big brother, rest assured."

In a still and quiet room, Gongyi Yan's fingers faintly trembled as they held three books.
He first carefully scanned what was written once through. Then, he carefully looked at the four jade bowls packed with two medicinal pills each. He was in a very excitable mood.
Gongyi Zhuoyue, this old fellow, also had never expected this. At this moment, his voice quivered: "Tianheng, my grandson… Is, is this really true?"
Read more BL at chrysanthemumgarden.com
Tianheng's expression was composed, and was brimming with confidence: "Reporting to grandfather, this matter isn't the least bit fake." 
There were five things he mentioned:
First, these three books were ingenious pill refining methods one could practice. One could refine pills that had even stronger medicinal effects than that of ordinary pills. The medicinal pills in these four jade bowls were based on these ingenious methods.
Second, because the qualities of the medicinal pills produced were different, they were divided into four grades. Among them, top grade was the rarest, but the effects were on the brink of perfection.
Third, during the Hundred Countries Tournament, many empires had taken out miraculous medicinal pills. In actuality, they were just strengthened versions of the Rejuvenation Pill. The fact was that he'd provided them. In addition, in the Cangyun Empire, these medicinal pills were part of a business transaction with the Ghost Division. This established secret channels within many other empires. 
Fourth, the high grade Qi Generating Pills sold by the Azure Dragon Trading Company were due to the ingenious pill refining methods.
Fifth, his body was capable of improving largely due to the successful creation of the Five Essence Pill through the pill refining techniques…

Casually putting one of these matters forward could leave a person speechless. Let alone that this moment really wasn't just one, but rather no less than five matters. Furthermore, they were even linked together?
At this very moment, the things before the two Gongyi Clan seniors made it hard to remain unmoved. 
Gongyi Yan suddenly stood up. With his hands clasped behind his back, he paced back and forth in the room's interior. It seemed to calm his mood. After a long time, he abruptly turned his head: "Tianheng, who else knows about this matter besides you?"
Tianheng was still as peacefully calm as always: "I won't keep this from father. Besides this child, there's only Ah Zuo, Dragon One, and Dragon Two who know. Among them, Dragon One needed to handle this child's business affairs, so he had to be informed. Dragon Two was arranged by this child to protect Ah Zuo, so he also had to know. As for Ah Zuo… These method books came from his fateful encounter, which he handed over to this child. Moreover, the medicinal pills that are flowing out these days have all come from Ah Zuo's own hands."
Mentioning this, he sighed, "Ah Zuo has great talent along the path of medicine refinement. Unfortunately, back then, the Qi Family wasn't able to tell good from bad and the son was allowed to indulge in evil, which shouldn't be rewarded. Gu Zuo arrived after this, and not only did he save this child, but he also brought about tremendous amounts of luck for our Gongyi Clan."
After these words were spoken, Gongyi Zhuoyue and Gongyi Yan were shaken once again. 
They never expected that the one who was always following their own child, the tiny youngster whom they originally thought had merely offered the prescription to curry favor, actually had such great skills!

Gongyi Yan's excited complexion reddened. After taking several deep breaths, he opened his mouth little by little: "Good, good, good! A pharmacist with such capabilities must certainly be treated well by my son. You can't be the slightest bit negligent!"
Tianheng smiled: "Ah Zuo is pure and innocent like the heart of a newborn. He's never once let this child down, and this child won't be unworthy of his sincerity."
When he said this, he paused, "Only, if Ah Zuo remains in the clan, I'm afraid that over time his talents would be wasted. Therefore, this child intends on bringing him, Dragon One, and Dragon Two to the sect. Dragon One and Dragon Two are faithful and devoted. It's inevitable that they'll be this child's left and right hands in the future. And after Ah Zuo departs with this child, I can look after him. He can also continue refining medicine for this child. We'll depend on one another, and we'll be able to properly survive through all kinds of ups and downs in the future." 
Gongyi Yan didn't hesitate. He simply responded: "Then I'll listen to my son's words!"
His eldest son was still a hidden dragon. When he was done hiding, he'd one day soar through the highest heavens. As if a pharmacist like Gu Zuo could be continuously retained by their Gongyi Clan. They might as well let Gu Zuo go, and let the two forge their own paths in the world together. Actually, it should be said that they could obtain even greater success. The two could show filial piety by nourishing the Gongyi Clan.
Gongyi Yan had a clear understanding. Nowadays, this "father" was already unable to help his eldest son. In the future, everything would have to depend on him. So, he needed to properly assist his own child and take care of the clan to let Tianheng move unhindered as much as he liked without any worries for the family!
Gongyi Zhuoyue, as the first Clan Head, never made his opinions known. It wasn't until after Gongyi Yan and Tianheng had somewhat reached a resolution did he laugh out in a clear voice and applaud: "It should be just like this — Just like this!" 
A glint of warmth streaked across Tianheng's eyes.
Afterwards, grandfather, father, and son made arrangements for the matters to come, discussing things one step at a time.
Of course, the three books would be preserved as treasures. Among them, <<He Clan's Pill Refining Seal>>, which was set as low grade, could be taken out first to allow the Gongyi Clan to secretly cultivate without outside interference. It would be distributed among the Gongyi Clan's blood-related pharmacists to study. Once this batch of people figured it out, they could instruct the second batch, which would be comprised of the loyal and devoted pharmacists whose ancestors were subordinates or servants of the Gongyi Clan for many generations.
After they were nurtured, they also couldn't let this kind of pill refining hand seal leak out at this point in time. Rather, they would first use the refined medicinal pills to nurture their own clan members. This would substantially raise the clan's foundations, as well as improve the clan's overall strength and the younger generation's roots. 
This would take a period of time. Because it wasn't known specifically when Tianheng would return, the following matters would be outlined superficially.
For example, once the clan's strength rose, the low grade pill refining hand seal would be copied into no less than ten books. They would be distributed to the Azure Dragon Auction to be sold at high prices.
This way, when lots of pharmacists started mastering this low grade hand seal, the Gongyi Clan's people could study the mid grade and high grade pill refining hand seals based on the differences in their degree of mastery and loyalty.

This way, not only could it preserve the Gongyi Clan's superiority, it could also raise the entire Cangyun Empire's power, making the Cangyun Empire the undisputed giant of the Tianwu Continent! 
Beyond safeguarding the clan's benefits, the Gongyi Clan's people also hoped that the overall strength of the empire would be improved…
But when it came to this, Tianheng suddenly opened his mouth: "Father, grandfather, before auctioning the low grade pill seals, give one to the royal family."
Gongyi Zhuoyue and Gongyi Yan both blanked, but they recovered very quickly.
Tianheng said: "Until this child leaves, wait for several months to even a year before the clan offers the pill seal." 
After Gongyi Yan pondered, he stated: "We'll say that this was found by an adventuring descendant of the Gongyi Clan, and thus separate this matter from my son and Gu Zuo."
Tianheng faintly smiled: "This child has made things difficult for father."
Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.
Gongyi Yan laughed: "This is the way it should be."
A father and son, these two people, didn't need to be too formal with each other. 
Tianheng immediately handed over everything pertaining to the Ghost Division's methods, related channels, and a few properties to Gongyi Yan.
The road ahead couldn't be guessed. Since he couldn't be filial beside his parents, he naturally couldn't be stingy with some of the good things in his possession that could prove useful. Even the Tianlong Guard was given to his father to help him manage properties.
Once everything was accounted for, Tianheng quietly said: "If I have the chance, I'll have Yang'er, Mingxia, and Teng'er join the sect in the future to practice martial arts. However, if I still can't after many years, and you don't receive any letters, I'm asking father to split these private properties between my three siblings."
After saying this, he smiled teasingly, "If there'll be more siblings in the future, because I haven't seen them yet, just leave it to Yang'er to take care of." 
Naturally, Gongyi Yan had a rare case of embarrassment.
Gongyi Tianheng had yet to tarry, and he still had plenty of matters to arrange.
Once everything was properly settled, the remaining time was coming to an end.

Gu Zuo: Are you sick?
Gongyi Tianheng: You have medicine?
Gu Zuo: You’re sick!
Gongyi Tianheng: If I say I’m sick, can you cure me?
Gu Zuo: If I say I have medicine, would you want it?
Gongyi Tianheng: However much you have is how much I want.
Gu Zuo: However much you want is how much I have.
Gongyi Tianheng: Then bring it all out.
Gu Zuo: …

Simply speaking, a scaredy-cat shou transmigrated and had to think of a way to survive. He had a golden finger called Medicine Refining System, but unfortunately, he didn’t have the ingredients needed to refine medicine and level up.
A great young master to an empire’s preeminent clan had a super high IQ, but his potential for cultivation was low. Unfortunately, pill refiners were too hard to develop, and weren’t restricted to his personal service. But he could acquire plenty of ingredients.
Two people, one was sick and one had medicine. Therefore, the one who was sick kept the one who had medicine, and everyone was happy.

The book you gave me was truly awesome. it contained millions of cultivating techniques, millions of manuals and I even found the [101 Procedures] series. I read the book and under the author's name was 'Sylvia'. How odd

I immediately discarded the thought of picking cultivating techniques but rather complied the most suitable. Do you know how hard it was to make sure they didn't conflict and not kill me. By the end of the day even Clown was annoyed. But I was finally able to do it I made it myself and possibly my children might need it. I named it [The Myriad of Trickery]. I named it that because myriad means a collection while shadows is because this little joker liked to follow me. 

I then looked through the millions of manuals. My favorite would have to be the [Necronomicon]. A beautiful blue cover with an emerald jewel embedded in the middle. It taught me the main rules to become a necromancer. I learnt how to capture ghosts but my physique changed so I couldn't change that. They had special way to cultivate your eyes to see ghosts but that conflicts with my other technique, you'll know it later. It had many methods to create dangerous undeads and specters. It even had it's own space to place an undead army.

Another favorite was [The Grimoire Gries]. It was a magical book enabling to transform animals into cards as long as I make a contract with them. They can never die unless they agree with me. I can even set a time limit if they wish to leave me. It even has an encyclopedia and can analyze the beast I have formed a pact with giving me a set of numbers that it calculates.

I learnt a few skills relating to assassination since a prolonged fight is dumb. Aiming for the vitals and analyzing the human body was important for alchemy so it was I decision that would save me time. I read a few blacksmithing and alchemy books to make weapons, armor, potions, pills and drugs.

I learnt the technique [Virtuous Jump]. With each jump I take I can eventually travel through a small amount of area just with a single jump. I learnt [Primordial Shadow Step] with each step I take, it makes no noise. I mastered it so well I can even walk on air and water. So what do you think Master?

I'm still through the process of cultivating [The Eyes of Truth] and I picked the second path. The first path told me I had to be blind for 2 years while the second path I would be half blind for 3 years with 1.5 years blind for each eye. Now I'm currently blind on my left eye. You must of been wondering why I had a piece of cloth over my eye, aye. By the time I finish cultivating it I will be able to see emotion and auras of any living organism but I will have to wear a blindfold in order to not be blind. If used to long your blind. Don't worry because I can still see with the blindfold but I can't see anything 8 meters away. 

Either way I got to go. You can only see your grand-disciples when I mature, okay.

A man dressed with a grey shirt, rolled up sleeves and a black tie exited a dark cave. The wind blew brushing his black unkempt long tied hair with his black fedora being still like a rock. He strolled without hesitation at a moderate speed, neither too slow nor too fast. His long loose black pants failed to obstruct his movement as he continued to patrol the left side of a rocky path. 

The fedora blocked the sight of his face with the bands behind his ear suggesting an eye-patch with a smirk on his face. As he began his rocky journey he refused to look back and quoted

"This is the last time I will say goodbye because the next time will be a warm welcome. I am willing"

The young man announced his will yet there was nobody around but if you were closer to the young man you could hear a captivating whisper. The snarky voice responded

"It's about time. You can finally get your memories. But on the condition of this so called maturity. I bring change since I was the past that set your future. You must never think of the present for it will be your past but the future that you'll take"

"I am you and you are I. Accept it. Take it."

Kaito who stood outside in the open plains had a sudden change. The alluring voice of 'The Red Clown' will never be heard from again. Kaito's originally black hair reformed into white while a mask slowly assembled over his face. The mask was pure white and appeared to be indestructible with a single tear drop painted beneath the right eye and a menacing red smile.

Kaito gently picked up the mask and place it over his ring before it suddenly disappeared. He pronounced his true feelings with no witnesses to watch.

"The Red Clown is gone. Instead there will be The Blue Pierrot"

And with that Kaito suddenly jumped and moved 20 metres ahead. Slowly making his way back home.

Vladisk 

A planet in our solar system. Part of the Galbraith Galaxy

Truly a wonder. Vladisk is comprised of a super continent covering 40% of the planet with sophisticated shadow like monsters originating from the south with no known predecessor. Towards the far right of the center of out capital city, Witro is a large architectural arch made out of a currently unknown material. Strictly controlled by the military it is off limits to civilians.

Evolving through the tough Destruction Era humanity has slowly risen. Technology has gone far especially in the medical industry and in general. Discovering new elements and ores enabled us to creates revolutionary products.

At the center is the Witro our capital city while at the far north is the protective farming area producing food. Far left is the experimental labs, at the cost of improving and changing what was the cost?

At the age of 18 all students must partake in a military exercise. This may range from fighting monsters, monitoring the peace of civilians or exploring planets. May you all be careful and become successful.

....

A three story building with a purple hue stood out within the street. Compared to it's neighboring buildings it stood out with it's vivid colors and welcoming aroma that drifted around making the street have a sense of safety.

The three story building giving this aroma was known as the "The Trickster's Lobby", despite being opened for only a few weeks has created it's own loyal supporters with military personnel frequently enjoying the place.

People from many origins have their own story yet are able to enjoy and greet each other. Biased perspectives and odd behaviors are welcomed here without discrimination however there was one rule in this bar/restaurant. Do not mess with the boss. Be it running away without paying, flirting with the waitress, breaking a cup if you don't take responsibility... we actually don't know yet. No one has disrespected the shop so no one has any idea of what might happen.

Some respect is equal to some decency. Those that can't understand that rule gets a blacklist if pushed even further....

Kaito finally arrives before the bar and opened the door before locking it and placing a close sign. As he entered the store he sighed heavily. The whispers and the height behind his back is gone and now it it only time that he waits for. It was currently 2 o'clock with the sun still shining and his disciples at school. He decided to change into a worn out blandly colored uniform.

 It seemed moldy yet it was clean without any germs but was wrinkled. Using a small ID card Kaito managed to enter a well secured area without any problems as there was no one around. There was a small shack that looked like it was ready to collapse but still managed to stand alone. The shack was filled books yet desolate of a human being. 

Due to the technical advancements practically everything would be on the internet however for Kaito who was basically told that information was key relied on these books to give him the best and most accurate information.

Using information from his world and the book Sylvia gave him which he likes to call [Library Host]. He was able to derive that many of the chemical herbs he saw were extremely rare and useful. This gave him a good reason to roam around the super continent for two years. The Monsters are considered aliens from another place.

From the [Library Host] there are known to be multiple worlds classified under four categories. The  Lower Worlds is one of them and are usually owned by the Monsters having their own cultural and hierarchy. If a Lower World is lucky and has had enough time they can evolve into a Middle World where more than half the total of Middle Worlds are owned by Monsters. The rest of the Middle Worlds are owned by every other race. The third category is Higher Worlds, surprisingly there are lots of those and all not owned by monsters.

The fourth category is Lost Worlds and Earth is one of them. Lost Worlds are basically Worlds that have lost their power and slowly destroy themselves and break away from the common norm. Lost Worlds believe in putting the minimum amount of power in the strongest being currently residing in their world. Another alternative is the organism with the most potential and in which 8 hours in another world is only 1 hours in the Lost World. This is done to give a sense of hope that there's a chance to save the Lost World. This is why there may be some broken up materials and no popularity of cultivation. That Heavily Dressed Guy is definitively a cultivator except he focuses on magic. 

According to [Library Host] the cultivation path has 12 grades being called from lowest to highest: Body Refinement, Qi gathering, Foundation Pillars, Revolution Core, Golden Light, Silver Shadow, Nascent Soul, Soul Nourishment, Spirit Thrive, Void Shattering, Whole Unity, Ascendant. With each grade their are a further 9 levels each however due to some simplifications people tend to look past the small improvements. From Elder's perspective she was one of the few who looked at the small levels.

In general the community uses the 12 grades which is the correlation of the cultivation path equaling to a number. In this case it would be: Body refining=Grade 1, Qi Gathering=Grade 2, Foundation=Grade 3, etc. It makes the simplification process much easier however this makes underestimation much easier to be done. 

Slavery and other legal laws are not proceeded to be protected in these worlds. This is one of the few good parts of being from a Lost World.

The protagonist, Kaito discards his last name to embrace a new life and rid of the misfortune he has cause. 4 unfortunate deaths surround him just for living. With the whisper of a clown and the teachings of his master this could have been avoided, so why did you kept quiet?

With the death of his master he rejects his humanity with the alluring voice of the Pierrot "Receive power at the cost of mortality" "is it your humanity that refuses to accept?" "Take it". The laughter of insanity, chuckle of madness and the echo of a lunatic. 

Watch as he dons a mask to hide his emotions only to eventually shed the false veil of cruelty. Witness his acceptance of the truth.

Note: Hiatus. Mainly because there isn't any readers so see ya for a year?

I was, No! It will be better to say Paul Blanch was an 18 years old boy spending his life with any goal in life. He was finishing high school without knowing what to do only following the trend imposed by society, having a very boring life.


The only place to escape in his monotonous life was his own mind. When he had a little of free time he will read some books and imagine himself as the main character of the story. First starting with western books and finally thanks to the recommendation of a friend, he started watching anime. Being Shingeki no Kyogyn his first, later he continued reading manga that was more advanced than the anime and finally the last step to light and web novels.


One curious fact was that at first, he didn't like fanfiction, they were like copies done by non-professionals and knowing the trash that did some professionals, so it will be normal to novel people to do it worst. But when he started reading them, he liked them the most because they show you more possibilities of a single story, improving some aspects and even correcting others (even when the majority are shit like there's a big possibility that this fanfic will turn). Also, he fell empathic because there's a lot of people that thought the same way as him, imaging and living these stories.


Another fact that it must be highlighted is that when he started reading Chinese novels ( he started first reading Japanese) he really like it but after reading 5, he would confuse them, especially their start and never know what novel what is.


One manga and novel that he really liked was Douluo Dalu or Soul land, at least it was very simple to differentiate with the spirit cultivation and the name of the protagonists was easy to remember (yeah I know how to count up to 3, and I don't know why I write novels because I never read it) and the development and fighting in them.


He especially liked the first Douluo because it was a simple life without being too technologically developed. Instead of the highly technological of the others (I hate mechas! If you want something big, resistant, and fully armed, the human figure is never the correct body to do it).


When he wasn't doing anything he always though of reincarnating and living in that world sometimes being the protagonist, others being Yu Xiaogang and changing the ending being with Bibi Dong, even there's a time when he dreams of being reincarnated as a girl being the little sister of one of the 7 devils and there was also the time thinking a little pervert, having a spirit that was his own body known as 9 Goddess Body that can't absorb spirit rings so he is rated as trash but at last learn that he can create spirit ring having S with women, improving their spirit and him gaining and ability of mimic a low grade of their spirit cultivating- Having and harem of 9 women, one will be and OC that will be his childhood friend that cannot cultivate, other needed to be Bai Chenxiang breaking her 38 and also RongRong improving her spirit to the 9... and finally ascending, thinking about that the girls and women were always described beautifully and that the protagonists of the saga only choose one when and harem was a very viable option. (WOW I think that a say too much and all lost the main story so let's return to it).


Like everything, this starts with a start only that this start is an ending, the ending of Paul Blanch and the birth of me. One life finishes creating another one, creating a new path and changing fate.


One day Paul was returning from school, walking on the same street as always and crossing the street when suddenly, a loud noise of a truck horn was heard. Without time to turn his head, he fainted due to a heart attack, watching the truck running in front of him waving his hand to some people, he closed his eyes to not open again while cursing that it's prohibited to claxon in a city, at least Paul Blanch eyes closed forever.

Observe how Ning Bai, big brother of Ning Rongrong aim to be at the top.
