《The Torture System》S-rank Cultivation Art
Advertisement
"This is the library. In here there all types of cultivation arts that you can learn." Chao Fei said.
"I see. Don't you need something to enter? Or do they just let everyone from the Sun Sect enter?"
"This library is for the students of the Crescent faction. There is another library for the Eternal faction. While the Immortal faction's library is a combination of both the Crescent and Eternal faction's libraries. There are also rumors that in the Immortal faction's library there are some incomplete S-rank cultivation arts." Chao Fei explained.
"Oh. It seems the Immortal faction really is the best..."
Zheng He and Chao Fei enter the library. After proving they are students of the Crescent faction they are allowed to look through the books.
"They made us go through such a hassle just to prove that we are part of the Crescent faction... It's so fu*king stupid and a waste of time."
"True. Now that we are here... What kind of cultivation art would you like to go through first?" Chao Fei asked
"I want to check out the physique cultivation arts first."
"Alright, follow me. Here are all the physique cultivation arts." Chao Fei said.
"Ok. I'll see which one best suits me... (thinks to himself) System, do you know which cultivation art here is best suited for me?"
System,"All the cultivation arts here are pure trash. They're all D-rank. Since the host has already learned Undying Body, the host must learn a physique cultivation art that is at least S-rank or it won't raise the host's combat prowess at all."
"(still thinking to himself) Damn. Where am I supposed to find an S-rank cultivation art..."
Chao Fei is confused as to why Zheng He has been standing still for some time.

"Zheng He, are you okay?" Chao Fei asked.
"Oh... I'm sorry. I was just thinking about something. Why don't you bring me to the incomplete physique cultivation arts next?"
"Sure." Chao Fei said.
Chao Fei and Zheng He walked around for 30 minutes before finally reaching their destination.
"I didn't think the library would be this big..."
"It looks small from the outside. But in reality, it is way bigger. But compared to the library of the Immortal faction it's actually really small..." Chao Fei explained.
"Are these the incomplete cultivation arts?"
"Yes." Chao Fei said.
"Why are they scattered across the ground like that? Also, why do they look so dirty?"
"This section isn't kept clean since these cultivation arts are all unlearnable." Chao Fei explained.
"Oh. (thinks to himself) System, are there any cultivation arts here that are suitable for me?"
System,"The host has incredible luck. There is, in fact, an S-rank cultivation art for physique training here."
"How am I lucky exactly?"
System,"The S-rank cultivation art was supposed to be a pinnacle A-rank cultivation art. But right before it was created, the person who made it got extremely lucky and gained an insight which helped him to make this cultivation art reach S-rank. Though it reached S-rank, it's one of the worst S-rank cultivation arts for physique training. But even the worst S-rank cultivation art is better than a pinnacle A-rank cultivation art."
"I see."
Chao Fei looks around confused once again. He wonders who Zheng He was talking to. Zheng He realizes what happened and quickly tries to come up with an excuse.
"Oh sorry. I was just talking to myself. Do know what this cultivation art is?"
"This... It is the legendary Burning Body cultivation art that the ancestor of this sect created. It was once the strongest cultivation art in the whole sect. But an incident happened and after that incident, the cultivation art was broken up into 3 pieces. For many years the sect has been looking for where the other 2 pieces of this cultivation art are. But as of so far the sect hasn't had any luck in finding the other 2 pieces because no one else in the sect had cultivated the Burning Body cultivation art before so they don't know what to exactly look for..." Chao Fei explained.

"Oh. I guess I'm done looking at cultivation arts for today. How about we go to the next place now?"
"Sure. The next place I will be bringing you to is the arena." Chao Fei said.
"That sounds fun. (thinks to himself) System, copy down that cultivation art for now. I'll try to learn it once I have collected all 3 pieces."
System,"Sure."
Chao Fei brings Zheng He to the arena next.

BODY&SHADOW
AN ILLUSTRATED NOVEL • UPDATES TUESDAY AND FRIDAY In a time before living memory, the King Dragon of the Void watched the world and realized there was a crack. He realized that humanity was destroying the rock upon which they lived; they leaked life’s code into the churning chaos. At first the change was imperceptible: nanites overtook microorganisms, bacteria, viruses, amoebas. Insects became increasingly inorganic; birds and lizards followed soon after. Even humans were infected by their own advances, cell by cell, till there was not a person left on earth who wasn’t at least part synthetic, the product of a prior generation’s carelessness. The world’s population was ravaged by mechanical viruses with no vaccines; they were mercilessly overtaken by bacteria that knew no death. Soon, most of the planet was empty and only a handful remained who remembered the hedonist realm they came from; only a few were left who remembered what the world looked like when their buildings touched the sky. The King Dragon of the Void watched the rock turn. He watched humans cower as the Old World fell down around them; watched their great monuments crumble into dusty ruins; watched their codes become precious, ancient gem memories forged under the crushing pressure of so many fallen stones. The world has spun many times around the sun since chaos swallowed man whole. It is a simpler time than the one that died out, but the people now are not immune to the folly of the people before. There is old code everywhere: in the water, in the air, in the trees. The heart of man has been replaced by power cores, many of which are hard-coded with preternatural abilities—when they die, an esoteric mountain sect collects their cores and stores them in their hollow mountain home to preserve the sanctity and dignity of human death. They’ve learned to harness artifacts of the old world, gemstones full of codes their nanite infused bodies can parse as spells imbuing their users with great power; they inlay them into their bodies, into their skins, connected to their cores by copper conduit and gold tracers; they dress themselves in tattoos to advertise their prowess; they battle for relics in arenas, fight for them in the open world wherever they are found. The King Dragon of the Void watches the rock turn and wonders: when will this hunger finally make the rock stop spinning? WELCOME TO FANXING CITY … Twenty-five years ago, Fanxing City and the surrounding lands were commanded by the mad King Zao Beiguan. For many years, the King hoarded wealth, artifacts, food; he demanded tribute from a people already taxed to the edges of their existence and expected they be happy with their circumstances. Noncompliance was often punished harshly, bodies displayed proudly on Fanxing’s streets as a warning, from the city gates to the Zao palace’s golden doors. The youths of several prominent clans came together to overthrow the tyrant and made names for themselves as legendary heroes across the land: Tian, Ren, Feng, Gui, Ma, and Zhenxi. Even wanderers from the Luanshi sect descended from Yunji mountain to aid the rebellion. When the dust settled after three years, Tian Yunyong ascended the throne of Fanxing and swore to honour his slain father’s memory, and has maintained Fanxing’s peace with generosity and mercy where fear and cruelty once reigned.
