Chương 3: Cultivation Breakthroughs

After everyone left the room, Aditya turned to the system for guidance.

"System, can I use the healing potion now?"

[Ding! Yes, the host can use the healing potion. It is advised to go to the bathroom and use the potion because it will help release impurities from the body.]

"System, where can I find the healing potion?"

[Ding! All the system items are stored within the system space, which is an infinite storage area accessible to you. To view the items within it, simply concentrate your thoughts, and you'll be able to see everything that's stored there.]

Aditya marveled, thinking, "I have a space ring with a capacity of 50 cubic meters, but this system space is infinite; it's truly incredible."

"System, can I store living beings like humans or animals inside the system space?" Aditya inquired, his curiosity piqued.

[No, host can only store inanimate objects within the system space.]

Aditya nodded, feeling a renewed sense of hope. He followed the system's advice and visualized the system space in his mind, revealing a spacious interior containing a beautiful sword, a book, a healing potion, and pouches for body strengthening.

From the system's space, he retrieved the healing potion and proceeded to the bathroom, which proved to be surprisingly roomy, equipped with a large bathtub, a shower, mirrors, and a washbasin.

With his clothing discarded, Aditya immersed himself in the inviting bathtub, filled it with warm water, and took out the healing potion from his kurta pocket. As he gazed at the bottle's blue liquid, a sense of hope and anticipation washed over him.

"May this potion finally free me from the poison I've carried for seven long years. I pray to the Sun God, and I pray to the Fairy Goddess," Aditya whispered his heartfelt plea before carefully drinking the healing potion.

Immediately, a rush of hot energy coursed through his body, accompanied by the expulsion of a black, foul-smelling liquid.

"This could be the impurities and poison in my body," Aditya speculated.

After half an hour, all the impurities had been purged from his body. Aditya drained the bathtub of the murky liquid and refilled it with clean water, meticulously cleaning himself with soap and shampoo.

Emerging from the bathroom, he felt revitalized and brimming with energy. When he looked at himself in the mirror, he still appeared thin but no longer appeared sickly. His skin had regained its vibrancy, and he looked remarkably more handsome.

"System, can I cultivate again?"

[Yes, host can cultivate again. The host can use the Fairy Dual Cultivation Manual.]

Aditya retrieved the Fairy Dual Cultivation Manual from the system's space and began perusing its contents. It was a Divine-level manual crafted by the Fairy Goddess herself, though only the first part was available to him at the moment. To access the second part, he needed to reach the Immortal level stage.

This manual promised various benefits, including improved body strength, enhanced charm, higher Qi quality, and techniques to amass abundant Qi for rapid cultivation growth. It also held advantages for dual cultivation partners.

Even for those without a partner, the manual offered a way to cultivate using the Qi Gathering technique, allowing the practitioner to draw Spirit Qi from the surroundings and channel it into their Spirit Veins.

The Dual Cultivation part of the manual detailed how to utilize Yin Qi generated by women to cultivate, along with techniques to heighten the dual cultivation experience and produce more dual cultivation energy.

'Is this not some perverted cultivation manual? How could this be a divine manual?' Aditya thought.

[Host, the world is made up of laws, for example - water law, fire law, space law, etc. The Yin and Yang are also laws of the universe and can be utilized for cultivation. You can use only the Qi Gathering part of the manual if you find the dual cultivation part uncomfortable.]

Aditya reluctantly nodded and resumed reading the cultivation manual. After reading through the manual, Aditya assumed a meditative posture on his bed and began following the Qi Gathering technique.

[Gathering Qi]

Aditya observed the Spirit Qi particles in his surroundings, visualizing them as small white dots. He concentrated on channeling them into his body using the technique. Initially, only a couple of particles entered, but gradually, their numbers grew into the thousands, flowing through his Spirit Veins as he allowed them to circulate.

Aditya was astounded; in his previous cultivation, he could gather only 5-10 particles in the Mortal Shelling stage. Now, he was amassing thousands. Even Foundation realm experts struggled to accumulate a few hundred particles.

"This technique is incredible," Aditya whispered in awe as he continued to meditate and gather Spirit Qi particles according to the manual.

After a few minutes, he received notifications.

[Host broke through 7th stage of Mortal Shelling]

[Host broke through 8th stage of Mortal Shelling]

[Host broke through 9th stage of Mortal Shelling]

After three hours of diligent cultivation:

[Host broke through 1st stage of Qi Condensation]

[Host broke through 2nd stage of Qi Condensation]

…

[Host broke through 9th stage of Qi Condensation]

Aditya, now at the 9th stage of Qi Condensation, decided to put his cultivation on hold, wary of potential imbalances or deviations.

His once-slender frame had now filled out, although he still lacked the chiseled muscles of a warrior. He appeared remarkably healthy and exuberant, a remarkable transformation in just a few hours.

"Ahahaha!" Aditya's laughter echoed through the room; he was brimming with happiness. He had received a system, and his body was finally free of the poison that had plagued him. Not only that, but he had regained a significant portion of his lost cultivation in a matter of hours. The system had explained that his rapid progress through minor realms was possible because he had achieved them before, but the healing potion's effectiveness was truly remarkable. The Fairy Dual Cultivation manual, described as a divine-level manual, held even more promise. Aditya could already envision the extraordinary results it could bring.

Aditya couldn't contain his excitement as he moved around his bedroom, his energy levels restored, his laughter filling the air. He couldn't resist gazing at himself in the mirror or indulging in daydreams of becoming a formidable cultivator with the support of such a powerful system.

His thoughts then turned to his caring grandfather, a prominent figure in the Sun Kingdom, celebrated as one of the most potent cultivators, currently in the late stages of the Nascent Soul realm. Aditya knew that his grandfather would be elated to hear of his recovery and newfound potential.

The cultivation stages are

---------

Mortal Shelling Realm

Qi Condensation Realm

Foundation Realm

Core Formation Realm

Core Condensation Realm

Nascent Soul Realm

Spiritual Ocean Realm

Heaven Realm

Heaven Lord Realm

Void Shattering Realm

---------

Most Sun Kingdom cultivators remained at Core Condensation or below, making Aditya's grandfather a true powerhouse.

Only the patriarchs of great clans in the kingdom had reached the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm, while the king occupied the middle stage. In this context, anyone achieving the Foundation realm before age twenty was considered a genius, and reaching Core Formation before age thirty was virtually unheard of.

After a thorough examination of his body to ensure no issues from his rapid breakthroughs, Aditya finally retired for some much-needed rest.
