章節 58: Energy Realms.
"Surely... There must be something I can work on in here."
With eyes that were beggining to flash, Su Min tilted his head and gazed at his chest. A single symbol sat there, accompanied by nothing else but 8 empty spots. It rotated and rotated, and with its incomplete outline, Su Min's eyes narrowed.
This symbol depicted a simple golden man meditating, but its lustre and life was incomplete and disorderly. Su Min knew this was because he was at the very beginning of cultivating this symbol!
However, for what the cultivation stages were called for the ancient races, he has no clue. He only knows that each symbol represented a new level in power. Similar to the Martial Cultivation Stages, but it wasn't exactly the same...
"Surpass the First Ancient Energy Realm?"
A faint thought emerged into his head as he remembered what the black figure told him. This figure told him to surpass the first of the Ancient Energy Realms. He told him that to do such a thing he had to cultivate his first symbol completely, so what was this Ancient Energy Realm..?
The figure even told him that this would make him invincible to those in the Martial Condensation cultivation stage! Though it was clear that the Ancient Energy Realm didn't refer to his power, his cultivation, it referred to something else...
Su Min conjured a guess that the 'Energy Realm' was, in fact, the energy he could sense in the world!
He could see and manipulate two of these energies. The Martial and Ancient! However, he has a paramount skill in the Ancient Energy. It is because he can, by his will, command such energy around him. He can't do this with Martial Energy, not even close!
It was as if he was an immense talent in the ways of Ancient Energy, and of course, this came from his terrifying bloodline! Yet, he had never comprehended the energy to get to this stage, no, he was just given it.
It was like he didn't even need to bother with understanding the principles, as he would inherently just know. Su Min himself hadn't even comprehended the energies of the world, and he doesn't know how to do such a thing.
Yet...
"Maybe the more I cultivate this symbol, the more I gain in the comprehension of the world's Ancient Energy?"
This thought struck him for a moment, and that was because it contradicted the very essence of comprehension! Su Min may not know a lot about cultivating nor comprehending, in fact, he knows near nothing! But, he can at least summarise that comprehension comes from understanding something yourself.
You can't just know, no matter how talented you are. You have to at least bother to study, yet Su Min has never done such a thing. If what he said was the case, then it would truly be an astronomical advantage!
All he would need to do is cultivate, and the comprehension would naturally follow. For most, this would be a faraway dream that would make them drool, but Su Min has such a dream!
However, a couple areas seemed to be a little blurry to Su Min. Like what determines how much he naturally understands? Is it the talent of his body, which he knew was ranked 'Low'. If that were the case, would high ranked Ancient One bloodlines have even more unfathomable abilities at the same level as him?
Also, if what the black figure was true, then surpassing the first energy realm must need, by his conjecture, him to comprehend the energy to its fullest... Maybe it has something to do with surpassing a level in comprehension, like ascending to a new realm, new energy.
Then what would the advantage be if you surpass the energy realm, would the energy become more powerful, more explosive? He could only guess.
Another, rather pivotal notion, also came into his head.
"Though... How do I cultivate this symbol?"
It was all fine speaking about this ludicrous advantage, but Su Min needed to actually cultivate! Yet, how could he do such a thing?
This was completely different from the lifeforce method he had to undertake in his previous life. This was because he wasn't using lifeforce to cultivate no, he was in fact using it to just construct a foundation to cultivate!
And now that he has gotten to that point through this body, how on earth would he go any further?
"I can't seem to even see life force anymore, so I guess that isn't the correct method to cultivate anymore... The only faint method I have is that strange space I used to comprehend those two fist techniques..."
"Wait..."
A sudden premonition struck Su Min!
"Comprehend... I have comprehended..."
It was due to the fact that he has comprehended! They were the two Fist Techniques, The Might of the Ancient and Golden Eclypse!
"Maybe to further my cultivation, I need to comprehend the limitless techniques in that space..? How ironic..."
It was all too strange for Su Min, as to gain cultivation, he supposedly would have to comprehend? It's just that he's not comprehending the energies of the world, but he's comprehending techniques?
What's the difference then? If comprehending a technique isn't the same as comprehending Ancient Energy, which although he has never done, then what is it?
"In fact, what are techniques?"
Su Min felt that he verging on an understanding that most would never touch upon, but even with his concentration he just couldn't cross that muddy bridge and find out!
"Bah! I just need to cultivate till everyone on this shitty realm would have to bow before me! Then gaining my bloodline would be a lot more simple. Hm... Now that I think about that, I should probably get that wisp from the kid I took all the trouble to save."
Eyes beginning to shine with a bloodlust, Su Min gazed out into the abyss with a smile that wasn't a smile. However, he couldn't escape from this blackened world just yet...
"But first... I want to further my strength."
Gripping his godly fists, Su Min took an abrupt motion and stood up in front of the golden tree. His eyes glimmered with a mysterious light as he took a step and walked right in front of such a tree.
Each golden leaf reflected itself into Su Min's one golden pupil, though for some strange reason, his other black pupil remained fogged and obscure. It was as if it contained no shimmer of life; like it was a lifeless dead thing.
Nonetheless, Su Min still could see out this pupil, and what he saw made him smile.
"So it works like that..."
He strolled to the front of the tree, and with a smirk, he saw a strange speck of black float right ahead of it! His golden eye couldn't see such a speck, but to his black eye, it was as clear as any other item in the world.
"This Martial Bloodline is truly strange..."
...
...
*POOF*
"Hm... This is the last area."
With glimmering white eyes and a tired disposition, a robed man yawned as he stared at a small cave hidden in a dense collection of trees. An exceptional halo shrouded him, one that emitted an inexplicable pressure that made the very ground shiver with trepidation.
"Oh..."
*WOOOOOSH*
A strange whoosh of frailing winds blitzed past him, where a sudden thick stream of clouds formed above him and crackled with disheartening thunder.
*SNAP* *WHOOOSH*
"The heavens are reacting in such a way?"
His eyes narrowed as he glanced at the shaking sky, where hesitation shone for a swift second. Yet...
"I guess that means I've found something then."
Once again locking his gaze on the roughly placed cave and its entrance, the man lifted into a smile. Yet it contained a certain solemnness that dreaded something.
"Though... It seems that whatever is in there is something I don't want to fight alone."
His figure lightly trembled and his eyes shined even brighter. Then, with a sudden shudder in his white sight, an unusual gold revealed itself around the small forest. It wafted out of the cave unendingly, yet, what was strange was that inside of this gold, faint darkness shrouded it.
The trees and the sky were completely covered in this gold, resembling that of a hazed fog that just wouldn't go away. This gold was light and slow, yet whenever its dull wisps passed the robed man, his heart would beat just a little faster. It wasn't worthy of anything, but the man didn't like it.
"My life isn't going to be put on a coin toss..."
