Capítulo 3: How I Live
My mother came to check on me, she approached me with a wide smile on her face.
"Hello there my little sunshine boy, you are so adorable, come here come to mama" she said as she lifted me up put me on her right arm and pinched my cheek with her left. 'Ouch there is some pressure here it will make my cheek red, at least she loves me deeply, I will try my best to learn every possible skill that this village have to offer, it will become my assets.'
"Who is a good baby, yes you are, yes you are, who listens to his mama, yes you do, yes you do.
Come here let me check for your cleanliness." She said as she put me down on the coach took of my clothes and my leaf made diaper.
Yes to ease our job on cleaning so much material who may be not of best quality and degrade over time the carpenters of our village devised this method. by tying various large leafs in many forms they created this diaper made out of leafs, this world seemed to have a rather advanced way of thinking and good outside the box thinking, they immediately created various old time technologies that eased their job without complaining that such thing is impossible, it is sorcery or whatever excuses, and this is a cultivation world normally the technology and the thinking of the ordinary people was clearly lowered here but as I see this was not the case.
This world really did not hold back on some information, so much that even ordinary people knew some secrets about the cultivators, perhaps this village is slightly more advanced than others not all the places can be at this level. When my father talks with his teammates during a beer and goods sacrifice party they sometimes tell things about cultivators, I happen to be awake during that time so I heard some of it.
The cultivation stages are numbered from 1 to 9 thought I can't confirm if stage 8 and 9 are real or just a myth as there haven't been confirmed for such cultivators have yet to appear in our continent, there also haven't been any news about them and anybody who talks about it are considered delusional for believing in these fairy tales and not taken seriously.
The cultivation stages are called mythical creatures and goes up by 1 with each advancement. A stage 1 cultivator is considered a rank 1 mythical creature, a stage 2 is a rank 2 mythical creature and so on.
Each of these stages have their own unique name the first stage is called body strengthening the second is called qi gathering and the last stage that I confirmed is called foundation establishment, he he judging by these names and the novels that I have read in my past life is not too hard to guess the name of the higher stages like 4 and 5 but it's better to confirm things rather than assume after all who knows.
The first 2 stages are called low-rank mythical creatures, stage 3, 4, and 5 are mid-rank anything higher than 5 is considered high-ranking mythical creatures and very few people have reach this point as it is mostly found in monarchs of the countries and the ordinary people have never seen them in they're lifes.
And the final and most important piece of information is the corresponding abilities that comes with each rank. The first rank can draw qi out of the atmosphere store it into the dantian in fuse it with the body the qi of the first rank can strengthen the muscles, mobility and flexibility of the body. It changes the body structure to maximize your potential, eliminating impurities and achieve extraordinary strength.
The second stage has the ability of the first stage and the ability of the second combined empowering all aspects. By absorbing qi, it's effect allows to amass mass in the form of atoms and strengthen all your atomic made composition of the body which includes but not limited to skin, muscles, bones, organs, ligaments even blood, immune system and your own bacteria can be strengthen so that it keeps up everything equal without an imbalance, by gathering atomic mass things can be hardened it's similar to the armament haki from a certain novel with some differences.
First it's permanent, second it works on all atoms that compose your body compared to that story where im not sure if it enforces the insides, the blood or even the bacteria. The qi of a qi gathering cultivator is truly magical it can both strengthen the muscles and other things and can also harden your entire body with atomic composition at the same time, one can't expect for too much when it comes to cultivation.
And finally the innate ability of the foundation establishment cultivator is to use the qi around us and charge the things that are connected with our bodies, it's like charging a phone with a charger. The effect is double times the amount of strengthening you obtained from the second stage, at the beginning it lasts 10 minutes and it takes 10 second to charge, at higher stages the effects will be better. This is not much different from the weapons charged haki from a specific story. This type of move was used against a behemoth of stone and it showed great results the biggest difference is that if the charged material is touched it's permanent like a computer, once it's outside your body it works like a battery, the effects stays until the time runs out.
As I ramble all these things my mother finishes checking on me, ha lucky me it seems that I'm still clean so I get to keep the diaper. It can be really annoying to be this undignified by your body limitations, this is clearly a test from heaven yet it's not enough to deteriorate me or my path I will push throught it no matter how many obstacles are in my way.
Grooowl suddenly I hear a noise coming from my bowels and a pressure soon folows, damn it i spoke too soon, this accursed baby body is very inconvenient, I hope I will learn to take care of business as quickly as possible without seeming too smart or weird.
After getting the help I needed and a new diaper things continued normally, I eaten, I slept, did things that normal babies do, it's important to sleep in the afternoon so that i can save myself some time for evening around 9:00 pm our time.
Today is a lucky day, after all today is Sunday and it's the beer and goods sacrifice day, guess what there is one more thing the party is hosted at our house.
There will be a lot of beer so my father and his colleagues will talk a lot, they will also be here, the party will last for 3 hours from 9 to 12 and in that time I will definitely have the opportunity to obtain assets. Assets it's the things that decide our role and position in life, it's the reason why lower ranking people and higher ranking people exists in the same world without an balance called equality.
It's a dangerous things that creates inequality, it's also the things that motivates you to achieve greatness and create the fear of stagnation. Those that stagnate are dispose of, those without assets will suffer, and those that obtained them will be spoiled by life and achieve greatness. Yes a cruel truth that is omnipresent no matter what circumstances you try to find. The strong will strive and the weak will be punished.
The assets that I wish to achieve is a low level manipulation towards my parents which will increase their pride and likeness of me, it will let me impose my will on them with greater ease this is my plan that I created, my plan is to say my first words starting with papa and finishing with mama, yes you guessed these will be my first words and I will use them on an opportune moment, of course the plan that I created before the practice is also an asset.
Going and doing things without a plan and a motive is foolish, letting fate decide your destiny is foolish. Do not trust such traps to dictate your life, play indifference if there is not a benefit or a motive to take action and don't waste your time when you can obtain assets.
To detaliate more think of two cultivators who will participate in a sword tournament one will be a champion full of glory and the other will be a forgotten cannon fodder. Let's start with the assets prepared by the cannon fodder.
He prepared a sword like required by the rules and common sense, maybe he sharpened it a little and at best he borrowed it from a more successful relative, the second asset is that he has some confidence which he used to participate in the tournament but ommited the trap hidden within it.
Such traps are deadly for the foolish which will result in any type of punishment from the heavens, as he did not prepared himself in any other way, making him the perfect resource of other more successful people path of immortality.
Now let's talk about the assets of the champion. Better swords, better equipment, better training, better skills, better martial arts, better cultivation, more connections with people which resulted in more masters that teached him their skills and other people that gave him important information regarding competitors, pre planned battle moves, pre planned battle strategy, pre planned different fighting styles, pre planned situational strategy skills pre planned battle conditioned strategy.
Now the purpose of these pre planned strategies are a way to express how to move the battle in the direction that you desired. The battle moves can be your way of fighting, when to slash, when to stab when to dodge and look for openings, etc.
The battle strategy is similar but using other more abstract things like tiring him out or use talismans at a certain moment, the fighting styles are self explanatory, it's to confuse your enemy when he gets too used to a certain rhythm, the situational strategy skills are used when the enemy prepares an abstract method of attack like throwing sand or talismans, you need to be prepared for such matter and know what to do and how to defend against it.
Finally the battle conditioned strategy is similar to hunting animals, it's to act to use any move, strategy or battle assets you have to directionate the movement of your battle, hunt your opponent and get the rhythm in your control eventually a hidden talisman, a unexpected attack or any unknown method can be the end of him, with this you know how the battle will proceed you will know hot to control it. These are the assets that makes the difference between a champion and a cannon fodder. This is how I live.
