Year 1036 of the Zhang Dynasty - Unnamed plains - Underground

We reached our destiny, but I was tired.

[You should sleep before coming out]

“Did we stop?“ Yue

“Yes, this is the place I was going“ Linjian

“Are we going to battle the spiritual creatures outside?“ Tang

“Not now, I need to be at full strength before doing so“ Linjian

[Better safe than sorry]

“I will sleep now, Tang take this time to get used to your new body and Yue go to sleep to recover your MP“ Linjian

“Yes, Master“ Yue

“Yes, Master Linjian“ Tang

I created an air hole to not suffocate and went to the bed.

(Good night Maria)

[Good night Linjian]

After we came out of the Underground, I used Life Detection to search for spiritual creatures.

[Bronze and Silver Ranks...we are going to be fine here]

(How should I train them? Tang may be able to defeat a Bronze rank spiritual creature but Yue will not)

[You will have to stop their movements and let her finish them, she will get less experience but it is safer that way]

(She will need a weapon)

[Something with a wide range would be better]

I put the palm of my hand in the ground and think in a simple steel spear of one head.

(Transmutation)

[30 MP CONSUMED]

“Yue, take this“ Linjian

“A spear? I don't know how to use it“ Yue

“Until you are able of fighting by yourself I will cover you, so don't worry“ Linjian

“I will do my best!“ Yue

[She got the spirit]

“Tang do you have experience hunting spiritual creatures?“

“No, I don't“ Tang

He answered honestly.

“In that case we will go together and I will decide who will fight with what, are you alright with that?“ Linjian

“Yes, Master“ Yue

“Yes, Master Linjian“ Tang

[Yes, Master]

(...is it funny?)

[Very much]

......

...

At the end of the day Yue killed three Bronze spiritual creatures, Tang four and I killed two silver ranked.

[This place is filled with them]

(If they try to get inside, that may become a trouble)

[Maybe we can do something about it]

(We can?)

[Yes, the mana power and the spiritual power are completely different energies and that could help us now]

(Are you implying that they will repel each other?)

[Exactly, if you modify your Mana Stones you may be able to create a repellent for Spiritual creatures]

(It is that easy?)

[It is only that easy for you, remember that only you can manipulate mana]

(With the Page of Enlightenment, that is only true for now)

It will really be useful in the future.

(Making repellents for Spiritual creatures will be a future project, right now I need to expand this bunker)

The Bedroom was too small for three people, so this time I make a rectangular bunker with six rooms and one corridor.

I made a new bed for everyone and furnished the rooms with plastic chairs and tables.

“Your abilities are amazing as ever“ Tang

“Lets call it a day, tomorrow we will be hunting Spiritual creatures again“ Linjian

...

While I Lay on my bed, Maria Talks to me.

[So, we are hunting again?]

(Yes and no)

[?]

(Before I was hunting to level up)

[And now?]

(I am creating a new home, a new settlement)

[A new settlement?]

Change isn't only destruction.

(Punching cultivators will not change anything, that will only prolong the existence of a society made for pride and power)

[...]

(I will show those monsters the true face of humanity)

[True face, huh]

She sounds skeptical.

(I know that people aren't all peace, but I also know that they aren't all pride)

[...]

(Strength isn't an end, it is a mean to protect. A father who kills his own children doesn't have any sense, any meaning)

This world without change for over five thousand years is proof of that.

[If a city lord came here...]

(That will not happen)

[How are you so sure?]

(They are too busy meditating to care about some commoner, the only way to find a city lord would be going to him)

After all, Strength is the only thing in their heads and while meditating they get stronger.

(This place will become the starting point for humans and the ending point to cultivators)

[...This may take a while]

I know.

(All my focus is on this, I don't care how much time it will cost)

I made a promise.
