Cheat Cultivator's Ascension - Chapter 487 - 487: Sudden Enlightenment
Once the materials are taken out, he then starts with a simple design, a house of the same layout as the ones he was often seeing during his time on Earth, this nostalgic, contemporary house already starting to raise itself from the ground once he starts utilizing [Build Infrastructure] .
Seeing the resources he laid on the ground being consumed by the process of creation that he initiated, Su Xiaotian couldn’t help but feel a bit underwhelmed as despite the seemingly mystical way that everything is being processed under his nose, with the area he designated as the place where the structure should be build being covered by some sort of starlit fog that attracts anyone’s attention to it.
Even with this grandiose of the appearance of the process, it still takes time for the construction of the house to be finished, a little bit over an hour as the City Lord System’s display shows.
[Constructing Model 1(Basic Accommodation)]
[Time Remaining Before Completion: 1 hour, 3 minutes and 27 seconds]
Looking just for a while at the second timer going down every moment, the immortal-like young man then decided that he should probably start setting up these areas below the World Trees’ branches now, wondering if he can cancel this process as he felt like this construct is way too close to the central World Tree.
Seemingly feeling his intent, yet another floating screen appears right in front of him, this one questioning, or rather, confirming his thoughts.
[Are you sure you want to cancel the construction of Basic Accommodation? Since the construction has already started, ten percent of the resources will not be returned.]
Reading the question in front of him, the immortal-like young man agreed without hesitation as even despite the fact that the materials he is using for the cancelled construction is quite high in terms of quality, it is still something that he can easily acquire through the help of the puppets mining in the Auxiliary Job System’s Spirit Mine.
Now seeing the return of ninety percent of the resources he expended, Su Xiaotian then starts roaming around, intending to start with the development of the island’s ground level on the outermost part first, before moving inwards intending to reserves places should the people he care for that are still outside the island intends to have some uses for the places below.
Given his current strength, partnered with his exceptional mastery over his body and hence, his speed, it doesn’t even take him more than a couple of minutes to reach the edge of the island, his figure, blurring through the tall, World Trees and the flora below something that the former people of the Frontier City, roaming around and exploring the island, fails to notice due to the difference between their level of strength.
And now seeing this specific edge of the island where he plans to develop the true Roaring Heaven City in the future, the immortal-like young man felt quite serene hearing the waves clashing on the cliff that is beneath him, feeling the slightly moist and sticky ocean air slamming on his skin.
‘This is great…’ feeling an unprecedented peace swelling deep inside of him, this immortal-like young man couldn’t help but praise the situation he finds himself in, something about this moment, despite him not having the company of the ladies, of his family, felt ever-so-peaceful and calm.
With wind clashing on his skin, the mesmerizing sound of waves, the clear blue sky that hangs over and the sound of birds chirping, leaves rustling, little animals prancing, perfected by the warm ray of the sun hitting his skin.
And through all these external stimulations, within the immortal-like young man’s head, his mind starts roaming around as thoughts pops every now and then, some transient and inconsistent, while some remains, continuing to pile up like water filling a dam up, said dam a blockade to knowledge new to him, this very blockade already forming cracks as thoughts continues to form in his mind, all from this unexpected calm that he previously felt.
And through this calm, he couldn’t help but postpone his plan for what he thought is a little while, sitting cross-legged as he starts cultivating, something that he hardly does outside of the Infinite Qi Dimension, allowing him to feel what would be different should he attempt to cultivate within the thinner ambient spirit qi in this atmosphere.
Despite the fact that he is currently in a place with ambient spirit qi being greatly enhanced by the large amount of World Trees all around, to Su Xiaotian, it felt incredibly lacking, the only thing that made the experience better being the fact that right now, it isn’t truly cultivation but rather an enlightenment that forces him to meditate.
Having this sense of peace, he continues with the process of enlightenment as he allows himself to follow the sensation, merely taking it as a guide while he looks around and try to piece things out for himself, intending to make the most out of this sudden enlightenment that he just experienced.
Hearing multiple notifications from the Universal Shop System seemingly congratulating him about something, he maintains his focus as he felt like whatever it is that he is comprehending right now, there are still some points that he can improve on, points that might otherwise still be incomprehensible for him outside of this enlightenment.
If he were to take a good look at the notifications that multiple instances of the semi-transparent, floating golden screen is telling him, the words that he will encounter are the following.
[Detected a sudden increase of user’s mental activity, a sudden enlightenment is triggered]
[The user is being enlightened with the multiple aspects of nature, comprehending a technique out of it]
[Detected that the technique the user is currently comprehending is suitable to be classified under one of the techniques that the user already has mastery of]
After this notification, the exact skill that the system is talking about, the technique that this current enlightenment might be related with, appears, a familiar one that Su Xiaotian resorts to, probably the most, during his fight against those two Celestial-level cultivators, one being the Imperial Court’s ancestor who managed to survive, a fortune for this said ancestor when comparing his fate to the fate of his companion who fell during that encounter.
In this new instance of the semi-transparent, floating golden screen, none of the usual description of this technique changes, however, beneath it, right under its variance, something even the owner and creator of this technique is unfamiliar with, emerges.
[True Armament (Self-created, Transcendent-level Battle Technique)]
[Info: A technique that is only possible for someone with transcendent-level on all three aspects of one’s being (Body, Spirit, Soul), to perform, utilizing the user’s strength in order to create a weapon according to the user’s will, a weapon bearing a proportion of the user’s strength, and capable of being infused by any sort of power that the user’s body can bear.]
[Progress: Entry-level (Basic comprehension that allows the user to increase attack power by one state no matter the realm the user is currently in, can only remain constantly active for one minute)]
[Note: The strength of this technique is completely dependent on the strength of the user and the power the user is going to infuse in the weapon created by the technique, ranging from some percent of increase in its power all the way to multiplying the power of the technique itself]
[Current Variance]
[Time Transcending Blade (Self-created, Transcendent-level Battle Technique)]
[Info: A form of the True Armament Technique infused with the power of the temporal rules, allowing the user of the technique to perform attacks beyond the user’s strength, as well as empowering each and every attack by traces of temporal rules that cannot be dispelled]
[Progress: Entry-level (Basic comprehension that allows the user to increase attack power by three major realms only for one attack, this effect stacks with the effect of the base technique)]
[Note: Tread lightly with using it as this is an indiscriminate attack that will affect everyone that stands along its way. (Can eventually be controlled once the user’s mastery of the temporal rules increases]
[Heavenly Nature Blade (Self-created, Transcendent-level Battle Technique)]
[Info: A form of True Armament Technique infused with the power of nature, allowing the user to unify himself with his surrounding and perform attacks completely blending within its own environment, passing through things that the user considers as part of nature and destroys everything that is not, these attacks are untraceable, however, it can still be detected by individuals who possesses great connection with nature.]
[Progress: Entry-level (Basic comprehension that allows user to increase attack power by two minor realms for one attack, or allows unity with nature, allowing user to avoid an attack with at most, one major realm of strength above actual strength.)]
Waiting for the one who is meant to read these information about this new techniques, the screens doesn’t fade into nothing as Su Xiaotian continues with his enlightenment, changes happening as his body starts melding with the air, the grass, and even the ground around him, seemingly becoming one not only with nature, but the world itself.
