《Ultimate Cultivation Support》Before the Trip
Advertisement
Lunch was just rice with some vegetables and a piece of fried chicken. A housekeeper helped to prepare the food, and she’s been in the family’s employ since forever.
“Have you thought of which sect to join?” Mingjian asked.
“Not the Green Insect Blade Sect.”
“Is it because I’m there?”
“Yes.”
“Good decision.” Mingjian nodded.
“What stage are you at, brother?” Mingwei asked. He realised he didnt know which star his brother was.
“I am a three-star cultivator. I made my 2nd Qi-layer early this year, and was made an outer disciple.” Mingwei nodded.
“Ah, congratulations brother. I don’t recall there was a celebration...”
“There was. Our parents took me out for dinner. You were out playing.”
Mingwei blushed. “Ah...”
“No matter. It is nice that mother recognised my efforts.”
Mingwei nodded again. “Yes. She is only interested in cultivation.”
“Indeed. I still wonder how father managed to convince her to marry him.” Mingjian nodded, he finished the last spoonful of rice.
That question made Mingwei blush. “Ah...”
Mingjian obviously noticed. “Oh. I forgot you’re still a child. Never mind. Which Sect do you have in mind? Nearer to us, there’s the Sword of the Fallen Leaves Sect in Redfall Town, there’s also the Red Tiger Temple in West Tigerriver City, or perhaps the Spearmaster Sect in Bloodflower City?”
“Uh...” Mingwei had no idea. He had no idea which sect was any good at all. But, his memories, many of them were crafters, alchemists and brewers. He wanted a sect that could fit those roles, or at least, have a greater focus on facilities for them. “Any... uh... alchemy focused ones?”
“That’s a rather strange one. Perhaps a hunting-focused one?”

Hunting? Mingwei was extremely curious what that meant. “What’s that, brother?”
“Oh, hunting sects focus more on hunting beasts for materials, either to sell, or to be made into items.”
Mingwei's eyes lit up instantly. That sounded like a perfect fit for him! Back in his world, this hunting-sect concept didn’t exist because well, beasts that dropped cultivation resources were mostly extinct, or extremely rare, and the territorial nature of the world meant a sect normally ‘farmed’ any beast within it’s territory. “Ah... that sounds ideal, brother. Where do I find one?”
“You’ll probably have to travel a bit further, but... I think the nearest one is Longbow Sect in Redmaw Town.”
A small town. Mingwei thought about that for a moment, and wondered whether that’s a good idea. “Do you know more about them?”
“I can ask around.”
Mingwei nodded. “Thank you, brother.”
Mingwei spent the next few days cultivating, and he had his Qi storage refilled.

“Hmm, Longbow Sect will be having their sect trials in three weeks.” Mingjian said one day over lunch.
“Wow. What do you think, brother? Do you think I have a chance?” Mingwei wondered.
“They’re considered a minor sect, so, yes. I think you do have a chance. Minor sects tend to place themselves in towns, not cities. I hear they only have 5 elders and about 200 disciples in total. Comparatively, the Green Insect Blade Sect has 60 elders and 3,000 disciples. Our Patriarch is a 7-star cultivator, theirs is just a 6-star.”
Mingwei nodded.
“I’ve spoken to my elders about your interest in heading to Redmaw Town, and just so coincidentally, a few of my fellow disciples, our core disciples and two of our Elders will be headed to Northstar City, which is just a day away from Redmaw. So, I’ve asked whether I can go, and bring you along. They said yes.”

Mingwei paused, and he quickly realised where this was headed. “Then I must apologise for imposing on them.”
“It is fine. Father’s a good friend of the elders, and I’ll be paying for the costs.” Mingjian said. “I’ll just claim it back from our father.”
Mingwei realised his father’s political connections are a lot more complicated than meets the eye. ‘Father, does he really sell just rice?’
“Don’t give me that look.” Mingjian said. “Father’s childhood friends with one of the elders. Don’t think too much of it. I’ve already sent a letter to mother and father.”
Mingwei could only nod. “Thank you, brother.”

I can summon my past lives
What would you do if you were the only cultivator on the planet? What would you do if you could summon the soul bodies of your previous lives and leech off of their experiences? For the first time in my boring life, I finally saw the light. I was given the mission to become the strongest by any means necessary. Lucky for me, my past lives were quite badass in their respective universes during their prime until their untimely deaths...well most of them, I think. Their experiences remolded the current me to become their best version. I learned something: As powerful as they were, they still died for one reason or another until it was ultimately my time to live. In this life, I vow to learn from their mistakes and live forever. Besides, there must be a reason this {Requiem System} I got was given to me in this life. I am scared I am the last life to be reincarnated. If I die, there won’t be another do over. And why would I die if my reincarnations are also invested in this life as I am? They came with their powers intact...just that they lack a physical body which I am happy to share. With beings that strong at my beck and call, I think the bar that I must surpass had been raised a little bit too high. I am called Damon Kaze and I welcome you to this journey of my last reincarnation of mine. I can’t guarantee it’ll be your cup of tea, but hey, sometimes you never get what you wish for. You just have to live with it and hope for the best.

8 180The King's Queen
#7 in vampire #1 in queenThe world has gotten boring to him after living for many centuries, through many generations. He thought of it as a curse. His gift was anything but a gift, in his opinion. He loved killing people. He always has. He enjoyed seeing the life being drained out of them, quite literally. He always drank every last drop of their life essence, he didn't have mercy. Though he was the king there was something he could never have unlike others of his kind. A soulmate. He hadn't been turned or born from vampire parents. No, he was born a monster from human parents. The first of his kind. Why he was born like it, he didn't know. He didn't care. All he knew was that he wanted to die already, since he had no mate to look forward to. He lived because he couldn't die, at least not physically. He had no reason to live, but many reasons to die and even though he tried many times by many methods, none of them suceeded. He staked himself, on multiple occasions. It felt like a needle piercing his skin. He hung himself. He didn't die, but he hung there, very much conscious.He went on the gillotine. It made his body dissapear and reappear in the same spot he was born in. He took his heart out. He grew one back. He bled out. His blood regenerated. He used silver stakes. They burned his flesh. He overdosed. It did nothing since drugs, alcohol and other dangerous things do absolutely nothing to him, except get him under the influence to a certain level. But none of them filled the emptiness in his heart. He just needed her. But all he got were unimportant girls he used and forgot about. He never felt anything for them. He couldn't. But then on that day while he was walking around a small town's forest, he felt the emptiness slowly being filled up a bit. He stood there in shock. He couldn't believe it. He almost cried of happiness, right then and there.He had her. He had a mate. His mate. His one and only mate. His Queen.
