System," Congratulations! Undying Body has leveled up to level 6. You are now equivalent to Muscle Refining Stage 6."
" I knew it... He wouldn't disappoint me. He got me straight to stage 6, I was only at stage 4 before I lost my cultivation."
" The hell?! Why aren't you fu*king dead yet... How are you Muscle Refining Stage 6? Just a few moments ago you didn't even have a cultivation. Well, it doesn't matter. I'll kill you nevertheless."
" He looks so angry. This is the best day of my life. With him around, it won't be too long before I reach a new realm."
…
System," Congratulations! Undying Body has leveled up. Your body is now equivalent to Muscle Refining Stage 7."
" How? He's still not dead. And now he's at stage 7. He must've been hiding his cultivation the whole time. What if he's at an even higher stage? I need to run before he tries to do anything to me...", thought the stranger.
" Where the hell do you think you're going? Today you're going to die by my hands, and no one is going to be able to save you. You got so mad when I said that you were weak. But I've been letting you hit me for so long and you still couldn't do jack to me. Now that you no longer have a use, you should just die."
" No! Please don't kill me... I beg you-", said the stranger.
System," Congratulations on killing a Muscle Refining Stage 7, you have gained 1,000 xp points. Congratulations, you have reached Muscle Refining Realm Stage 2. From now on you can use skills."
" 1,000 xp huh? How helpful is that even? And wasn't I stage 7? How the hell did I turn in to a stage 3? Yo System, what are my current stats?"

System," Here are your stats:
Cultivation: Muscle Refining Realm
Stage: Muscle Refining Stage 3, 440 xp/1000 xp
Body: Undying Body Level 7
Skills: None"
" Wow. This whole time I didn't even have a cultivation... I destroyed that nub with the power of my body only. But what are skills?"
System," Skills are techniques that you can use to battle others. To learn a skill you must either comprehend one or kill another person to learn their skills."
" Oh. But then why did the person I killed not drop any skills?"
System," The person had yet to learn any skills."
" What the hell? He was bragging about being so strong yet he didn't even any skills... Also, why are you talking to me in such a mechanical way? You used to talk normally back then, what happened?"
System," I do not know how to answer your question."
" Wow, you're pretending for sure. There's no way you would change that much after a single upgrade. Well, whatever. Now that I've become so powerful I don't think there's anyone that can contend with me anymore, so what should I do now?"
System," You are recommended to stop bragging. Not that long ago you were nearly killed by Fang Zhi, only because of my help you were able to escape alive."
" What do you mean? Even if you didn't help me, I would've been able to escape."
System," But then why were you begging me to help you escape? You seemed quite desperate."
" I was just pretending. There's no way I would be scared of him."
" Oh, really?", asked Fang Zhi.
" Wtf?! System help me escape!"
System," No can do. I need to power up for another week to be able to teleport you again."

" Didn't you say that you teleported me far away from him? If so, then how the hell did he find me that quick???"
System," If you had paid attention earlier, you would've known. But since your such a dimwit, I'll repeat myself. Even though the teleportation can teleport you very far away, I can't control where it teleports you. So you can only blame your luck for being teleported so close to him."
" Tf? What's the point in even using teleport, if it's that bad."
System," If I remember correctly when we were at Fang Zhi's lair, you said any place is better than that place."
" Why the hell are you so determined to prove me wrong every time? Can't you go easy on me, just once? But seriously, help me escape please!"
System," Like I said, I need one week to power up. So until then, your gonna have to survive on your own."
" You shouldn't have escaped. You only pissed me off more. I was thinking about giving you a painless death, but since you enraged me even further, I'm going to make you feel like your in hell. Now let's go to back to my lair, shall we.", said Fang Zhi.
" I'm dead this time for sure. He nearly killed me last time, and there's no way the System will be able to power up in time..."

Homecoming | A Chronicles of Ascension Story
When Jethen was captured by slavers, his childhood was torn from him and left shattered half a world away. When he finds himself back home decades later, by methods he does not fully understand, he finds that the life he has lived has changed him far more than he knew. In a home he no longer knows. Places and people at the same time familiar and foreign, he must decide - stay and help with his parent's business, or return to the land that remade him and the family he made there. --------- Homecoming started as just a short story to break an episode of writers block. It has since morphed well beyond that into a novel in it's own right, and may well end up with a sequel. The writing of Homecoming became a bit of a self induced challenge to improve my initial, first brush, writing quality. Each chapter was written raw, given a once over read and edit, and then posted. In this way I am forcing myself to write better from the start. I do hope you enjoy the story and will leave a comment or review, and if you see an issue, feel free to let me know as well. I know it is not nearly perfect, and it will get a full and proper edit once I am done. Never hurts to fix things along the way though. As an additional note. The story has undergone a structural rework and has been reposted in an updated structure and sequence of chapters. If you have read this story already, I invite you to do so again in this new structure.
