《Level system vs Cultivation methods》Chapter 10 : Skirmish
Advertisement
Year 1035 of the Zhang Dynasty - Outlands of Heavenly Phoenix City - Northeast wall
On the way here I decided to gift my horse at one farm.
[I hope he lives a long live]
(Me too)
Where I am going is too dangerous for him.
[Now, how are we going through this?]
In front of me there was a wall of twenty meters height with guards on top and arrays to the inner side to maintain the spiritual creatures outside.
(By Earth Manipulation)
[...it was a silly question]
...
Once out of sight of the guards, I dig a hole of a radius of one meter diagonally in front of me with Earth Manipulation and walk in. Just to be sure of not being caught, I dig 40 meters deep and plan to come out 500 meters far from the walls.
After digging for a while, we reached the another side.
[How far is that forest?]
(About 40 km)
[Time to test your stamina then]
(What?)
[Run]

I reach The Northern Forest after a relaxing run, luckily I didn't find anything nor anyone on the way.
[40 points in 40 km, very good]
(Aren't I going to fight right now?)
[Your style of fighting doesn't need stamina, so it is fine]
(...)
[Lets find something to fight, okay?]
Here I go, full strength...
“Life Detection“

[5 MP CONSUMED]
With my 1 km radius of reach, I cover almost half of the forest and I discover some bronze rank spiritual creatures to hunt.
...
In front of me there is a gray two meters boar-like creature.

“whiiig“
And instantly it charges towards me.
[Plan A, do it as we planned and everything is going to be fine]
Wait.
“Whiiiiiigh“
Wait.
“Whiiiii...“
Now, two meters!
The Earth Manipulation already active under my pant connects me with the earth, so I don't need to speak.
(Earth Embrace!)
[Earth Embrace!]
The soil grabs the boar legs almost immediately and spreads on the body.
The maximum range of Earth Manipulation is three meters, my body needs to be connected to what I want to control and it is stronger the closer of my body it is.
[Finish it]
I walk closer to the boar and touch it.
“Goodbye“
I bury it three meters below me.
[SPIRITUAL BOAR DEFEATED, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
[Next time bury it before getting closer]
The plan was simple, I wait until the foe is in two meters range and then use my hidden already active Earth Manipulation to bury it on the ground. This way even if I cant break its defenses I may have a chance of sealing it.
[Now plan B]
The plan B was to go on to the offensive without caring about MP usage.
I went to another boar and this time is my turn, the earth below me embrace my body and then...
(Earth Knight)
[Earth Knight]
[450 MP CONSUMED]

It takes the shape of an medieval full plate armor of another world made with compressed soil to protect my body and boost it.
“Whig?“
I crush the boar's head with my strengthened fist and my increased speed before it can even start his charging.
[SPIRITUAL BOAR DEFEATED, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
(Cancel Earth Manipulation)
I cancel the Earth Knight and activate the Under clothes Earth Reinforce.
“Earth Manipulation“
Without the mana of Earth Manipulation the armor is just a dead weight.
The Plan B is strong but only last two minutes in the best case.
(Lets save this for strong foes)
[All right, plan C]
I use Earth Manipulation and dig diagonally the faster I can while covering my trail.
[Good]
Plan C is basically run away.
(Lets continue use plan A until the sunset, do you agree?)
[I agree]
...
After making a simple bunker in the ground with Earth Manipulation, I ask Maria.
(I killed four bronze ranked spiritual creatures today, why I didn't gain a level?)
[You will only level up while sleeping, so good night]
If that is the case then...
(Good night Maria)

Primal Adaptation
The story of a little soul that ends up tangled in the games and bets of entities that utilize beasts of any primordial planet as a game avatar to make the Perfect Primal. This tale is not only its story because it will also share its destiny with the entity that will help it in its journey, and together they will rise from their particular situations one way or another. Primal Adaptation is a history with some RPG elements in it, but the MC can't look at a status screen or skill page because it's a beast through and through. I have implemented an evolution system for all the creatures of this story, where they grow or mutate depending on what they consume. In this tale, you won't find a Deus ex machina to give the protagonist power-ups. Everything must be learned and comprehended before its use unless it's something it gets immediately, or the abilities get understood by instinct. In essence, it is survival and gambit for opportunities, be it from one MC or the other.

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero
No, my name’s not Doug. I lied. Waking up in this hospital bed and right away I’m being questioned. They say I’m a hero, saved some girl. I don’t remember any of that. Like the stories you read, a stranger in a strange world where magic and fantasy races exist, but technology hasn’t advanced. It was all just a slice of life as I learned and grew in this world. Was… Author’s notes. Original work. First draft. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

Blue Mage Strives for the Level Cap! Adapt!
After being invited to participate in the Beta run of a new Full-Immersion Virtual Reality RPG, Ardacen Winters and 1999 others learn that it is also a race to reach the level cap of one hundred. The prizes are grand, but the chance to be the first players in this new game might be worth more than the prizes themselves. This is a Lit-RPG, a humble homage to all the others who precede it and hopefully an inspiration to anyone with a story in their own head that needs to be shared.
