I can’t help but look down at my foot with frustration; specifically, my shoe that is stuck in this weird, sticky substance.
The first thing I do is identify what exactly I’ve stepped in.
My scan informs me it’s just a residue left on the top of a naturally occurring Moss in the...

Hi all,
I’ll be postponing the chapter until tomorrow evening, as I had underestimated how much I would need to consider for the jungle challenge.
Look forward to the upcoming chapter, as it’s sure to be an interesting one.

The guard's eyes observe me, clearly expecting pain, but with a slight hint of hope.
I begin by centering myself, taking a deep breath to call my nerves. As the air comes inside, I can feel the Qi enter my body, rising through my lower, middle, and finally my upper dantian.
From there...

I’ve just reached the first level of Qi condensation.
An average cultivator that reaches this level would have the strength of 10 men. I already had the strength of 15 to 20 men before I elevated to this. Case in point, I could easily lift that massive bear on the way up the moun...

Remaining in the fetal position, I can still feel the spiritual sense of the guards wash over me.
As time has passed, and their emotions have settled, it appears they’re doing the smart thing and ascertaining what is going on with me.
This is quite bad for me.

Immediately after making the decision to start my cultivation journey here, I begin looking for a house that I could hide up in to complete it.
I quickly find one that my scanning informs me is uninhabited. Luckily for me, it is normal for cultivators to stay in one of these houses and medi...

Hi all,
Just wanted to give you guys an update on the posting schedule change I had mentioned in the latest chapter.

Sprinting through the dark alleys of the city, I avoid all eyes and the slightest hints of spiritual centers. In conjunction with my other scans, I use it to determine the best way to reach the teleporter within a timely manner.
Not much time later, I arrive at the edge of the alleyways. Fo...

Hi all,
It looks like my work schedule has peramantly changed so I’ll be working later. I’ll have to shift the days around a bit to compensate. With that said, the chapter for yesterday will be completed by the end of today.
Sorry about the inconvenience!

As I can look at the array of experiences before me, I can’t help but wonder how long this will take.
From what I can see, it doesn’t look like there’s an end to the number of methods around me. And my scan won’t tell me how many are left or coming up. All I can do is just go throug...

I can still see the glow of the word from the book in my eyes, even in the darkness of the space.
Cultivation.
As its light dims, it is replaced by a Void with a single light in the distance.
Strangely enough, this place is reminiscent of the soul space that I had encountered pr...

Hi all,
Sorry for the short notice, but I’ll need to postpone the chapter for today to tomorrow instead.
There are some aspects I’ll need to hone in on to make it work well and I want to take my time on it.
Thanks for always being so understanding!

My paranoia grows, as this seems like the perfect time for my cultivation method to come into play.
Before I approach the old man, I use my scan to verify the probability of such a thing. I’m a bit surprised to find that because of the speed and efficiency of my healing rats, as well as t...

My mind pours over the information flooding into me from my scan. The star renewal flower is an extremely rare 10 pedaled flower that grows in deep, jungle-like, spiritual beast territory. Knowledge about where it grows is rare because uses for it have not been publicly determined at this time.

The cultivator rushing to senior song arrives at her side quickly. His voice has a hurried tone, but at a level that no one can hear.
Of course, I have my scan, so I’m able to know what he says.

When a person enters a new area, their first reaction is usually to take a look around.
In contrast, a person who’s worried about threats will focus on that first. After experiencing the weight of the gates, I was no exception to this.

As I gaze at these three men, I begin to realize what had ticked me off to them being different.
The first note is that there’s an older man with them. Likely in his 40s. A man of that age will almost never go on an application run with an established sect like this. He’s far past the a...
