Liam stood outside the Pagoda, staring at the notification in his vision, and for a moment he didn’t move.

The rewards stared back at him, each line carrying weight that took a second to fully register. His last sign-in had been modest by comparison, cultivation speed cards that were useful but not revolutionary. This was different.

He read through the list again, slower this time, processing each reward individually before moving to the next.

The first reward caught him completely off guard.

One hundred years of cultivation. This was firect infusion and not a card that accelerated his passive absorption over time.

He hadn’t thought the system would give him something like that. The cultivation boost cards had seemed like the limit, the safest method the system would allow for rapid advancement without the risk of explosion from excessive absorption.

Liam barely had time to brace himself before the energy flooded his body.

It came as a wave, massive and immediate, crashing into his body with the force of something that had been compressed and released all at once. The sensation was overwhelming. Pure Primordial Essence flooded his meridians, his core, his cells, moving through every channel with a speed and volume that his passive cultivation had never approached.

His body responded immediately, drawing it in, refining it, integrating it into his foundation with the instinctive efficiency that his Origin Devouring Body was built for. The energy simply flowed, and his body absorbed it like it had been waiting for exactly this.

But there was a limit.

Liam felt it approaching fast. The capacity of his current stage was finite, and the amount of energy still flooding in was pushing against that ceiling with increasing pressure.

His core was full. His meridians were saturated. His body had taken everything it could hold at the Second Stage Evolved, and there was still more coming.

He knew what was about to happen.

The breakthrough came suddenly, a release of pressure that exploded outward from his core in a wave of raw power. The air around him rippled, dust rising from the red ground in a perfect circle that expanded outward and then settled. His cultivation base shifted, expanding, the walls of his capacity breaking and reforming at a higher threshold.

First Stage Evolved to Second Stage Evolved.

The transition was clean, with no bottleneck or resistance. The energy that had been pressing against his limits now had room to move, and it poured into the newly expanded space without hesitation.

Liam’s senses sharpened. His strength increased, not incrementally but in a leap that he could feel in every muscle, every bone, every reflex. The world around him looked the same, but his relationship to it had changed. He was faster, stronger and more durable. The gap between what he had been capable of five minutes ago and what he was capable of now was significant.

But the energy wasn’t done.

It continued flooding his body, filling his expanded core, pushing him toward the limits of the Third Stage faster than should have been possible. He felt the second breakthrough approaching, the pressure building again, the same sensation of his body preparing to expand its capacity one more time.

The explosion came moments later.

Second Stage Evolved to Third Stage Evolved.

This time the wave was stronger. The dust cloud spread further. The air around him hummed with residual power, vibrating faintly before settling back into stillness.

Liam stood in the center of it, breathing slowly, feeling the new limits of his body. His cultivation base had doubled in size again. His strength had increased proportionally. His passive absorption rate, already amplified by the cultivation boost cards, would now be working with a foundation that was two full stages higher than it had been minutes ago.

He waited, expecting a third breakthrough.

But the energy finally stopped.

The flood slowed, then tapered, then ended. His core settled into its new configuration, stable and full. He was close to the Fourth Stage, closer than halfway, but not there yet. The remaining energy had pushed him as far as it could, and now it was gone.

Liam exhaled slowly.

Two breakthroughs. From First Stage to Third Stage in less than five minutes. One hundred years of cultivation, condensed and delivered, had carried him across a gap that would have taken weeks even with the multiplicative boost from his cultivation cards.

And yet, it had only been enough for two stages.

The thought was sobering. One hundred years of accumulated spiritual energy, the kind of quantity that would have carried most cultivators from the mortal ranks into the transcendent, had moved him exactly two stages within the Evolved Rank. That told him everything he needed to know about the difficulty curve ahead.

His foundation wasn’t normal. His energy requirements weren’t normal. The gap between stages for him wasn’t the same gap other cultivators faced. It was wider, steeper, more demanding. Which meant that even with the cultivation boost cards still active, even with the multiplicative effect pushing his passive absorption to a thousand times normal speed, his next breakthrough wouldn’t come quickly.

He did the mental math. At his current rate, even amplified, reaching the Fourth Stage would take weeks. Maybe  a month. The stages beyond that would take longer still. The system had given him a shortcut, and it had been significant, but it hadn’t changed the fundamental reality of his path.

He was going to have to work for every stage from here forward.

Liam looked down at his hands. They looked the same. But the power flowing through them was different. It was more refined.

On Earth, he could have ended civilizations before. Now, the gap between what he could do and what any human-made defense could stop had widened even further. Not that it mattered. He had no intention of testing that particular capability.

In the cultivation universe, he was still weak. He had seen what true power looked like during his encounter with the Devouring Petal Pavilion. He wasn’t there yet. Not even close. But he was getting closer.

Liam dismissed the first reward notification and focused on the second.

The moment his attention landed on it, his expression changed.

A smile spread across his face, slow and genuine, the kind that came from recognizing exactly how valuable something was the instant you saw it.

“Many Bodies, One Mind,” he said aloud.

Just from the name, he knew that this was what he’d been hoping for. What he’d been planning to search for in the Tome of Thoth or the system store. A solution to the problem of being limited to one location at a time. A way to be in multiple places simultaneously without splitting his focus or dividing his effectiveness.

And it wasn’t just any technique. It was Origin Grade.

Origin Grade techniques were the highest tier the system recognized. They were the kind of abilities that defined entire cultivation paths, that separated legends from everyone else. They were rare to the point of being mythical in most universes, the kind of thing that sects would go to war over if they knew one existed.

And the system had just handed him one.

Without hesitation, Liam focused on the technique. The full description materialized in his vision, and he read it carefully, taking in every detail.

[Many Bodies, One Mind]

[Description: A technique that allows the user to create multiple real bodies that all share a single consciousness. Each body can act independently, cultivate on its own, comprehend laws, and grow stronger, but all experience, insight, and power ultimately return to one unified mind.]

[The bodies are not clones with separate wills, but extensions of the same person in multiple vessels. The user retains full control over all bodies simultaneously and can share senses between them at will.]

[Creation Cost: Each new body requires a sacrifice of cultivation base and lifespan proportional to the number of bodies already created. Excessive fragmentation can destabilize the soul and weaken the core self.]

[Destruction: If one body is destroyed, the core consciousness survives. However, a portion of the cultivation invested in that body may be lost permanently.]

[Advanced Applications: At higher mastery, the technique allows for cross-universal existence, with bodies operating in separate dimensions simultaneously. Each body can specialize in different law comprehensions, and all progress integrates seamlessly into the unified consciousness.]

[Warning: This technique operates on soul-level mechanics. Misuse or overextension may result in irreparable damage to the user’s spiritual foundation.]

***

Liam read it twice. Then he read it a third time, slower, making sure he understood every implication.

The technique was exactly what he needed. Multiple bodies. One mind. Each body capable of independent cultivation and action, but all of them feeding experience back into a single unified consciousness. There will be no split personality or divided will. Just him, existing in multiple places at once, doing multiple things simultaneously without any loss of coherence.

The applications were staggering.

He could leave one body on Earth, another body could stay in the cultivation universe, training and building connections. A third could explore the mana universe, gathering knowledge and establishing a foothold there. And all of it would be him, experiencing everything simultaneously, growing stronger in all three locations at once.

The cultivation cost was steep. Creating each body would require him to sacrifice part of his current cultivation base and a portion of his lifespan. But the cost was temporary. Each body would cultivate independently, and when they reconverged, all of that power would return to the core self.

The real risk was soul destabilization. The technique operated on mechanics he didn’t fully understand yet, and pushing too far too fast could damage his foundation in ways that couldn’t be repaired. That meant he’d need to be careful. Start with one or two additional bodies. Test the limits. Build mastery gradually before attempting anything more ambitious.

But even with the risks, the value was undeniable.

This was the solution to his biggest logistical problem. This was how he could be everywhere he needed to be without sacrificing effectiveness in any single location.

Liam’s smile widened.

“Damn,” he muttered.

The system had delivered.
