Chapter 12: seclusion
Translator: Sigma Editor: – –
“In the end, there are still good people in this world!” Sui Xiong’s mood got a lot better . He smilingly faced up to the sky, waveing his hands, then put his attention on the shrine again .
He could clearly sense a formidable dark power condensing above the shrine, or something similar to a dark power . This kind of dark power was formed by a lot of will power like the last one, but a little weaker . The dark power being trapped inside his ice power was slowly dissipating .
Sui Xiong obviously wouldn’t have let his spoils dissipated like this . He hesitated for a while before he stretched his spirit hand and grabbed the shrine .
A blackish purple halo flared up . His spirit was blocked by that will power .
“Oh? Got a little knack . ” Sui Xiong wasn’t scared, but on the contrary, he was even happier, “I’ve just tried a little just to see how powerful you are!”
His spirit hands clenched into fists then barraged the shrine .
One time, two times, three times . . . that will power’s defense was getting weaker and weaker, then was finally crushed down by his fist . It couldn’t resist him anymore .
“Well right now, you’re about to say ‘rob, ruthlessly rob’, right . . . ”
Sui Xiong laughed out loud, then caught that panic will power after shattering it, then swallowed it up afterwards .
After all these years of traveling, he had soon discovered that his spirit-swallowing move was not only “Eat” . In fact, through the interaction between both spirits, he could directly swallow the opponent’s spirit .
As compared to ‘eating to swallowing’, ‘interacting to swallowing’ had a smaller efficiency, but it could purify the impurities in the opponent’s spirit, harvest more pure energies .
More than half of those impurities were memories and experiences, which couldn’t be counted as invaluable . But most of them were worthless . In order to avoid their influences, after every time he swallowed, he had to use his spirit power to extirpate the impurities, which was really annoying .
Since he had mastered the dark power trick, he was able to use the dark power to supplement the spirit energy . The eating and arranging impurities process took him a lot of time .
Therefore, in these years, he had soon stopped using the swallowing method to absorb the spirit energy, instead, he had changed to the interacting one .
But today, his spoils couldn’t be underestimated . It was worth swallowing and slowly digesting!
The dark power on the shrine couldn’t be wasted either . They and Sui Xiong’s ice power were like day and night . If he could seize the time to analyze, then he would come up with many powerful means . Either it was for self-protection or for taming enemies, it would be great of use .
No to mention the ferocious ice will power’s owner had become his enemy, in the future, the conflict would happen again . At this moment, studying more about the enemies would give more winning possibilities later on .

Hence, Sui Xiong immediately brought this shrine away to make sure of his safety . He directly left the Black Forest and went into the vast sea .
For the sake of using his giant jellyfish’s body, the sea was the most suitable battlefield .
After his giant jellyfish body sank in the sea, in a dark, cold and quiet world, something was watching over the dignified human silhouette, shaking its head .
“This fellow is really careful . ” He said, “Sea is not our area . He has hidden deep in the sea . We really don’t have any solutions . ”
“I will come out . ” An amazingly tall silhouette adorned in a heavy armor said .
“That’s right, but until that time, if we don’t use you as the will power to lure him it, unless you and it cross paths, we basically have no means to locate it . ”
“We will meet it again . ” A small and old silhouette said, “If there is a beginning, then there will be a growth and an end . That jellyfish is not like a ghost that dies young . Sooner or later, it will appear in front of us again . ”
“Until that time, we definitely have to tame it and its ability is really useful . ” The dignified silhouette said, “Maybe, it is worth paying a seat from God . ”
“We are not the only ones who are watching it . Don’t you feel that that lion’s appearance is really weird?” An aged figured reminded them .
The dignified silhouette was deep in his thoughts for a while then said, “Go dig up something . ”
“Yes sir!” Deep in the dark, a voice came up answering his order .
“Just leave this matter like this for now . First, we need to work hard during the day time as things will become more difficult at night . This relates to our Night God System’s rise and fall . You guys need to pay more attention to this . ”
After the answering sounds fussily clamored, these silhouettes left to settle the things they should do .
Time slowly flew by .
Being called “Great”, “Immortal” by mortal people, to this dignified silhouette, these times that had passed were not worth paying attention to . As for the concept of time, he usually used a generation, two generations, even one hundred years, two hundred years to calculate . But to a human, this was a completely different situation .
“Phew . . . seclusion’s done!”
The blue sky and white clouds, which Sui Xiong hadn’t seen for a long time, appeared in front of his eyes again . Sui Xiong exhaled a long breath . He couldn’t help but laugh .
He was all alone in hiding in the deep sea, silently digesting his spoils, silently training and enhancing his own power . This was really not an easy thing .
This time was different from the last time when he cultivated in the oceanic trench . At that time, after having finished each session, he had come back to the sea surface to relax a bit . But this time, in case his enemies were watching on him, he was hiding deep in the sea . He didn’t even dare to wander around in the sea .

That will power was crushed through his digestion . He had gotten a lot of information that he had been dreaming of . They were several commonly used languages and words, this world’s creatures, geography, a little bit of situation, powers, or the using methods . . . and so on, the most important thing was this time he had known who on earth his enemies were .
A god from the night god’s system, the night watchman, was Sleepless, the God .
A true God!
This was the world where God, monsters and many nonscientific existences . Existences being called a powerhouse were like a forest . And on top of that, they were called “True Gods” among the powerhouses . Not only their powers were exceptionally beyond the top powerhouse’s but also they had absorbed many spiritual beliefs from many creatures and fused with the world yuan power . They possessed unimaginably remarkable abilities . At least from the information Siu Xiong got, they were definitely strong, super strong, and insanely strong!
The will power Sui Xiong got was from the thoughts from many years of the White Leaf Village’s worship . It was mixed with the ones from Sleepless God’s descent several times . The content was little bit messy . Nine out of ten contents were all hymns for the Sleepless God . If all these words were true, then this Sleepless God would be unimaginably strong . Something like “God said, to have light” was also good, something like “Go beyond the sea of hardships” was also good, something like “Heaven decides the order of the nature” was also good . . . . all of them were not worth mentioning in front of him . Sui Xiong could still be able to keep his little life after offending this Sleepless God . He had indeed gotten a Heavenly blessing . It was unknown for how many wooden fishes (a wooden percussion instrument) had been smashed in the former generations or how much paper money had been spent to have that kind of blessing .
This was absolutely a lie . And Sui Xiong was not that dumb . The Sleepless God was formidable indeed, but, wasnt he scared by that streak of golden light?! Not to mention the fact that even Sui Xiong could use his own ice power to block him .
The so-called supreme Sleepless God was absolutely puffed up!
But this Sleepless God was not exactly a bad one either . He was a member of the “Night God’s system, a god who loved blood and fear . The “Emperor of Darkness” was the Supreme God of the Night God’s system, was a vampire from the ancient times . Under his command, they were all dark monsters . And when this “Night Watchman” was not deified, he was a cool-headed, insidious, loyal guard of the city’s grate gate .
After he became a subordinate of the Emperor of Darkness, it had been a long six year-time until he turned immortal . This guy never left his position, never slacked off . Even when he was injured, he didn’t rest, even when he was tired, he didn’t sleep, and kept on being like that until his death .
His exceptional loyalty won the Emperor of Darkness’s heart . After he was deified by the Emperor of Darkness, he promoted all his old and weak subordinates . His God name was “Sleepless” . Normally people called him “the Night Watchman • Sleepless God” .
Frankly saying, this Sleepless God became the Emperor of Darkness’s next gatekeeper grandfather . But this gatekeeper grandfather couldn’t be underestimated . Many unseen armies in Demigods and Semi-Devils, various arrogant characters, even the gatekeepers and masters in the Shaolin temple’s Buddhist Scripture Repository all turned into dregs in front of him . The Sleepless God was not a normal gatekeeper grandfather . Five and six “Legendary masters” were killed by him . Later when he had become God, with his achievements in fighting, he was named the number one general of the Night God System .
Facing such an enemy like this had already given him enough pressure . Let alone, the thought of the big Night God System behind him, Sui Xiong felt that his pressure was not “Huge”, but was like in the legend “pressure like mountains” .
Therefore, he put more and more efforts into practice . Through analyzing the dark power of the shrine, his understanding about power operation methods as well as the using principle in this world became more profound . His power range was expanded as well .
Through this time cultivation, his control over the ice power took one stair higher as well as the three aspects of power: shadow controlling, killing and defending—by using this world’s theory, right now he was possessing four power aspects . Among them, his control over the ice power became more prominent . As long as there was a suitable time, his ability in ice power aspect could sublimate, and then he could be able to head the path to immortality .
As for this opportunity, the way he could it was . . . . . according to his estimation, he might succeed if he cultivated for another several hundred years . . .
Sui Xiong really didn’t have enough patience to cultivate for several hundred more years . In fact, these dark cultivating times really drove him insane . Therefore, when his cultivation was almost finished, he couldn’t hold on anymore, and immediately left the sea and returned to the mainland .
Before that, he had found out about a volcano at the bottom of the sea, and threw the shrine into that volcano .
If the information from the shrine was correct, even if the Sleepless God’s gut was as big as a sky, he could only rely on this shrine to locate him . But at this moment . . . . dive into that lava and enjoy locating it!
After he drowned the damned shrine into the magma by his massive tentacles, Sui Xiong turned around and walked away . He decided that he would never come back to this volcano in this life!
Few days later, the giant jellyfish arrived in the mainland, once again returned to the Black Forest .
“Mortal World, I am coming!”

Well, that was a little harder to adapt to. Story is OC inserted into pre-canon Bleach. This story will be a massive derail from normal Bleach. Expect random ideas, extremly slow start up, and more focus on characters and trying to be a better person. I don't own Bleach. The who does is Tite Kubo, please support the offical Manga/Anime.

The Last Journey
A slice of life litrpg story... or is it? It's burning slow, though. Moving on: War comes with a great cost. Lives and time wasted for most part. One could either be run with sword, be poisoned, be bowed, and sometimes meet their end with just a tiny speck of wood. With magic, it becomes even more colorful. From lightning, to worse poison, to hovering rocks, to weird bladed leaves, to whipping roots, and to a lot more odd things easily reasoned with magic. A wonderful creation. But once used to something more than wonder, more than tricks to gather laughs, it becomes worse. War becomes worse. For there is not only blood to be spilled. A particular town almost met the same end. Soldiers geared with swrords and bows came with mounts. Horses burning lush grasses as it cracked boulders and the soil alike with every step. The kind that only war ones could ever do. Even strange wheeled creations that oozed danger were towed, loaded with something meant to destroy. But not once had they acted upon what such devices should've done, nor what an an army is supposed to do. Siege never occurred, as much as a command to war. No. Magic existed so a simple little fire is all the worth the town has. No sword drawn, no arrows nocked, nothing. Just some mana spent and through the ash they march. That was how Nudius saw her end. It came not even as a surprise. She didn't have the moment to fully register what occurred before she found herself in an empty dark space. Life lost, time spent. All from a fire that had not even touched her. But she knew very well that it was magic. Something she wished to have and strived for to have. Yet it seemed that none of it would matter now. Nudius was well aware of what the color around meant, of the odd situation, of the unfeeling state of her being. It was death and that was it. She didn't have to worry or dream further. Although there wasn't what she truly wanted in what death to her is, but at least, Nudius was comforted to what she believed death is. Rest. But little did she know there's something more than that empty space. It wasn't only the promise of rest, but was also more than she could ever hope for. Another chance at life. Another chance to dream. ***Tags are there just in case. You never know! Umm... HI-MI-TSU. Story blurb+: This is slow burn, quite slice of life story about a girl learning magic. All the while as she fatten herself up. So yeah, progression fantasy. But there's Litrpg! Numbers! Magic! Spells! And of course! There's something more. But read on ahead, please. Oh yes. Plot! There is, too. Disclaimer: The cover isn't made by me. Just layered it with a text. I got it from a free website, if I correctly recall. I'll see to it. (Haven't worked on it.)
