A powerful downpour of heavenly energy crashed against me, it was like standing under a waterfall, the pressure was pushing me to my knees and I would have buckled down in an instant if I didn’t anticipate such. As I thought, every milestone would have the pressure double up, but the thousandth step, the pressure increased exponentially, and I felt like I was about to drown. I took a deep breath, and grit my old teeth until I felt them about to crack, then I took a powerful step forward. The stomp was…

Thinking things through, I found myself in more of a bind than I thought could be possible. X’s presence was comforting but with so many Soul Formation level puppets standing right outside the barrier, I felt like a mouse being watched by a pack of hungry cats. Not the best feeling in the world. Still, I gotta admit, there was a sense of security inside this barrier. And where Xi Son tried to force his way through this barrier with might, these puppets didn’t even bother, why? Because they knew they…

Only to have hope re-ignited as the soldier dropped on its face when X showed up behind him. His head was torn in half, and his right arm dangled uselessly against his side, where thousands of cuts littered his body, X still stood, while a Soul Formation Puppet was laying on the ground. And this was all thanks to the fact that I had X working with five brains instead of one, as even though the gaping hole in his chest that destroyed his spiritual Stone, or the destroyed right arm, X still had three other…

As I swam in the embrace of the universe, I came to a slight understanding of what space was. Emptiness, yet fluffiness, the Universe was empty, but at the same time, it literally had everything in it, a conflicting duality, unlike life and death, this was the existence and none existence at the same time. For even if the majority of the Universe was empty space, there literally was everything in it. Food for thoughts I believed, and I saw through the universe, discovering more of what lay in its…

We arrived at a new floor, yet again a bit smaller than the one under it. But on this floor, there didn’t seem to be anything of note besides the massive pillar in the middle of it. It was a square pillar made of an obsidian-like substance. Before I could consult the poison god’s book, Xi Son hurried towards the stone, trying to pocket it into his pouch but was soundly denied. "Damn, I can’t take it, nor can I refine it for my own use." Xi Son said. "Pardon my lack of knowledge, what is…

The riders charged at us with ferocious impunity, if not for one final linked rope to cause a few to stumble I would have died right there and then, trampled by a warhorse. The horse that fell in front of me, delivered its rider to my feet, concussed obviously but still looked whole, I dove my sword right at the small opening between his helmet and chest armor, I didn’t need to do more, the strike slit a major artery and he would die within minutes, nor could I afford to make a cleaner hit as more…

"Spears at the ready!" the captain shouted at the ten tightly packed lines holding the entrance to the enclosed space. "Archers! Loose!" he called as the backline shot arrows that arced their way into the incoming cavalry. A few of the arrows fell harmlessly on the sand, but a good portion struck rider and mount, causing the horses that were rushing at breakneck speeds to falter or outright fall. A horse’s tumble was nothing if not catastrophic, as the whole beast would tumble forward crushing the…

I didn’t move, nor did the clone. I didn’t need to act, first of all, I need to understand what the hell is going on. I’m in some Laughing Slaughterer’s pagoda, perhaps his trial area where he tests the cultivation noobs for lack of a better term. And the first test is a fight against one’s self, so I’ll need to prove that I can be better than who I currently am to proceed forward. Right, now, the clone is not attacking, probably waiting for me to attack first, and if I were to do it will…

First things first, I’m weak. This is obvious, to anyone with eyes. I’m no match to the monsters and creatures of this world, and I’m even surprised at my ability to retain my sanity even after I was almost eaten by that huge snake. I’ll have to thank the cultivation mindset for this because if I was a regular person, I’d probably shit my pants the moment that snake showed up. The second thing, I’m way in over my head. This mere snake was the first hurdle thrown at me in this Ascendant’s…

The train-sized snake wasn’t too keen on greetings and immediately dove at me, head first, fangs ready to gouge me whole in a best-case scenario, at least it would beat being chomped on and chewed to bits before turning to a gigantic cultivating serpent poop. I urged my frail old body to dodge to the side, say I urged here because against mortals like back at the bandit’s cave, I was strong and all-powerful, the disparity between a cultivator and a normal human being was vast, exactly as vast as…
