《Mountain's folly》9. A crazy path
Advertisement
Settling myself down in the abode. I quickly calmed my mind from the events that happened before. I purely focused on consolidating my base as a Qi gathering cultivator.
With my experience setting the perfect foundation was as easy as child's play.Along with the immense aid of the cultivation arrays built throughout the mansion. I went through the books that the Grand Elders gave me on the topic of consolidation in each step.
Some of the Ideas were quite novel I had to admit. Certainly great and useful ways for people who had less control over their body and soul. I couldn't find any word on the Emerald path however, which gave me no small amount of annoyance.
My soul was so powerful however that such things were useless for me. Even my tiny percentage of a nascent Soul, made me equal to a core formation expert which just my soul. So i could move the tiny amount of qi necessary for perfect completion of the qi gathering realm with great ease.
I allowed a few days to elapse before I contacted the Grand Elder. I am sure the world around me was going crazy, but in here there was calm. I took a great amount of resources to greatly increase my qi density, along with perfecting my body. I also took time to plan some moves. What I would do. How I could best build up a power base with my current advantages, how to decrease my disadvantages as much as possible. The few days of respite allowed me to not only consolidate my mind, body and spirit, but also my future plans for the sect. Once I get in contact with my prime I can plan a lot more.
Breaking the communication token that was in the ring, letting my new master know that I was now ready to speak to him. It took a few hours before the abode signaled that its true master was outside. I had long since made myself presentable, best foot forward after all.

The spirit of the House told me he was waiting in the courtyard. I walked quickly through the halls to meet him. I still had to play the part of the conscientious disciple. Just to be safe, it was a rare master that wasn't at least appeased by such a student.
I planned on exuding the spirit of a great learner. I had to find out just what this Emerald Body was. How I could use, what was the true potential of the technique. Would I have gained another technique that could get someone to Infant Transformation. That was an exciting prospect. The more techniques of that level that I could give to my grandfather the more I would be rewarded quite heavily. Making it another avenue for reward.
Walking out into the courtyard, I saw the Elder looking around fondly.
"I lived here for many years, when I was young. I have been in this sect for longer than I remember. I was on a different path back then of course. It was only in the past two hundred years or so that i have the discovered the truest path of cultivation, The Emerald body path."
"I am ready to learn master"
With a nod of his head, he bid me to be seated in front of him. I was pretty excited. Getting a powerful cultivation technique no matter what discipline was always useful for the scholars in the sect.
"The path of the Emerald Body is not what you may think, for it does not cultivate the body"
He paused for quite some time, I figured it was a prompt for me to ask a question after a few minutes.
"So what does following the Emerald Body path cultivate within me then master?"
The smile on his face was bright enough to melt a hole through an iceberg.

"You cultivate a crack"
What?
"What?"
"You Cultivate a crack"
"What are you trying tell me to do master?"
"You must cultivate a crack to a different dimension filled with a different form of energy to infuse your body, that is inherently different to qi?"
What in all the gods of the realm was he on about. I had heard about different spaces with vastly different form of energy, but being able to cultivate with that energy instead of qi, How was that possible.
"I have simply called it the Emerald body path because my particular strain of energy, has a very green hint whenever I use my power, it was simply to put people off."
Without a second delay, a green aura began shining out from his body, Emerald Body did fit. Looking at the energy closer as well, I began to feel a sense of discordance, if I didn't know I was looking at a different form of energy entirely I would have thought it would be simple qi. However looking closer, it brought me a far greater sense of terror while looking at his full aura then even my grandfather. This was an otherworldy type of strength.
"Your path of course will be different, your dimensional frequency is different, One cant know their path until they begin, luckily however with your constitution of solidness, the energy will be perfectly formatted into your aura and dantian, meaning you will have none of the issues most have when attempting such a rift in dimensional energy."
My mind could barely keep up, depending on whatever so called frequency I was I could tap into an entirely different world of power. Also all the drawbacks of the technique were handled by my Constitution, that seemed a little too good to be true, something I would have to keep in my mind. Every step with great caution. Once I reach core formation, the backlash of a cultivation technique of such different origins and power could have catastrophic results for us both.
"Now, shall we begin."

She used to be a bright child. She was just not fortunate enough to have a normal life. Ill and bed-ridden, she slowly lost affect and cut herself off from outer reality, as her only joy was to construct a complex fantasy world. And eventually, she met her demise. Nevertheless, her story did not end here. Who is to say that Death is our last path? For her, it was just the beginning. She had been given a second chance. Reborn as a Goddess in the very own world that she created, it was now only up to her to write her own story. ‘This time, let’s try to live normally.’ Warning: Slow Character Development, Frequent Hiatus About the releases: Do not expect regular releases. I can no longer stick to a specific release schedule, so the chapters will be released once the entire arc is done, which implies long hiatus periods between arcs. About the tags: Although there are game elements, there are absolutely not the focus of the story so this isn't exactly a LitRPG.
