《My Hermit Life》Chapter 53
Advertisement
Solomon was driving along one day in his tahoe remake while comprehending his lightning Dao. Right when he was about to take a break Solomon felt something that all beings want to experience. He felt enlightenment coming.
Enlightenment is something that can better all aspects of a person, it can better someones Dao, Skills, even their stats. Solomon once experienced a rare case of enlightenment that lasted three years straight. This made his skills and stats increase immensely, he even had his skills return to the origin. Along with his skills and stats getting better Solomon also had his race evolve towards the origin becoming a True Tribulation Monkey.
The enlightenment Solo was experiencing was no where near the level of that one, but all enlightenment was welcome. Especially towards bettering the Dao, something that takes years of constant practice to do. That is why it is important to start learning Daos as low level as possible. Since Solomon started learning the strength, lightning, and tree life Dao at level one then every level increase afterwards would increase his talent towards those Daos. Since Solomon already had pretty insane levels of talent in Dao then by the time he became a God he would be able to learn Daos instantly. That was of course an exaggeration but he wouldn't have to struggle in the future to learn, at least up to Physical Manifestation level.
The Dao Solomon acquired enlightenment in was his lightning Dao which was focused on the tempering aspect of lightning and not the speed or attacking parts. Though Solomon did use the speed of lightning to create part of his own escaping skill Solomon never actually used the skill. He instead used the space aspects of the skill to shrink the distance between him and his target.
Solomon entered his and Loretta's world to start his session of enlightenment, this was to be safe since he wouldn't want to have his session interupted.
Solomon spent only twelve days in enlightenment which was pretty long. Usually enlightenment only lasts around seven days. During those twelve days Solomon advanced more in the lightning Dao than he had since he left the forest. He has even increased his Dao level from Physical Manifestation to Physical Embodiment. Physical Manifestation is the level where the Dao can affect the body by increasing stats, talents, and can even make skills. Physical Embodiment is the level where the user can actually use the Dao to affect reality.
Like Solomon, at physical manifestation Solomon had his mental stats increased as well as his talent. He also had a pretty good increase in his physical stats. When he reached physical manifestation Solo could feel his body get stronger as well as mental stats. His body also had a change in look.
His previously golden eyes now shot out streams of lightning the followed his eyes when he moved his head. It was kind of like watching a mirror that lagged. Solomon also had his golden furred tail start shooting out lightning like it was packed with static electricity. Of course Solomon didnt just gain a fancy electric effect Solomon also had some changes to his skin and hair. Previously Solomon had bronze skin like that of a metal God but after leveling up his Dao Solomon gained a faint purple shine to his skin. He also had his hair stand straight up like a super saiyan, though Solomon soon changed that back to being slicked back.

When he was done examining his body changes Solomon decided to check out his status, something he hadn't done since before he went into the million year training.

" WOAH! "
Solomon couldn't help but to exclaim in shock at his stats. After all it is truly unheard of for someone to have such high physical stats at level one. Even Solomons mental stats were nothing to scoff at, it was likely that even Gabby who only focused on her mental stats probably didn't have mental stats as high as Solomon. Solomon was also amazed at his new titles, True Magic User, Tattoo Lord, Strength God, Surpassing the Heavens, and One of the Few True Genius.
True Magic User is odvously from using at least one true magic. Solomon assumed he got Strength God from reaching and then surpassing his strength limit. Solomon really had no idea from where Tattoo Lord came from ( To be honest I forgot ). Surpassing the heaven was likely from taming the Tribulation Slime and One of the True Few Genius is also one Solomon couldnt figure out.
When Solomon saw all his titles he couldn't help but be pumped at the talent increase he'd gained from them. Especially Strength God which would increase his physical talent to a whole other level. This meant that Solomons already absurb physical talent would be increased and make him a literal Strength God.
After examining himself Solomon decided to call a family meeting between himself and the girls. He also wished he had given the kids, his parents, and master a way to join the meetings since he really missed them. He even missed that tiny lump of lightning jelly that could of destroyed entire forests.
It took Solomon an entire month of waiting for all of the girls to access the world. Solomon spent that month working on his creation and destruction formations for all the of the girls and himself to use. He actually made a bit of headway in his destruction formation, but he didn't make any for his creation formation.

The destuction formation that Solomon was creating was to take items and materials and them break them down to their base elements. So if Solo were to put in a steel and iron spear he would get steel and iron chunks as well as any impurities. Or if he were to find a Mana Mineral he could use his destruction formation to get the impurites out of it and uncrease the value of the gem. This was of course a hard to accomplish feat. At the time of the family meeting Solomon could break down materials into tiny dust chunks but he couldn't directly seperate the materials, but he was getting there.
The creation formation was for Solomon to put in materials and he could use preset blueprints to make those materials into something. Like if he had a steel and iron spear blueprint and he put in steel and iron then he would get a spear. Solomon wanted to use the formation to make parts for any engineering projects he had. To make the formation Solomon had to know how to make parts or he at least needed blueprints, it is also harder to create than to destroy.
Even though the destruction formation hadn't been completed Solomon still gave it to the girls so that they could get rid of any useless weapons and then re-smelt the materials into better weapons.
After that they discussed how everybody had been doing.
" Solomon why is it that you are always the one to call in these meetings? No offense but you seem kind of needy. "
" You don't suspect me of cheating do you? If not then I'm doing something right. "
When Loretta heard that her originally smug face at teasing Solomon dropped into something suspicous, angry, and then slightly worried. Deam, Gabby, and Solomon just smirked and ingnored her.
" Well Solo I assume the reason you called us in is for you to tell us the reason for your changes. "
" Yep, I recently gained enlightenment towards my lightning Dao, I reached physical manifestation. I figured I'd call ya'll in and brag. "
" That's cute and all but you should know that I can still beat you and fight. "
" I could beat someone in a fight if I was nearly a thousand years older than them. "
" . . . . . Touché. "
" So how have you two been doing? "
" Well I have been holding on pretty good against that peice of shit. He's really been trying to cut in on my all aspects of my buisness, under and over world. He has gotten friendly with this one jack ass gang boss whose territory I stole. Their collaboration has really been pressuring me. To be honest this little meeting was really needed for me to release some strength. "
Solomon seemed to want to control himself but he couldn't and ended up blurting out something borderline rude and borderline funny.
" Maybe you should get a boyfriend. That'd probably help. "
All three of the girls looked at Solomon as though they were looking at an animal.
" A girlfriend? "
Solomon once again couldn't control himself and blurted out something funny and rude.
" I'll just put myself in the corner then. "
When Solomon finally got out of the bad boy corner he instantly joined in on the conversation.
" So what're we talking about ladies? "
" Deam was just telling us about her new secret weapon. "
When Solomon looked at Deam with curious eyes she just sighed and started over.
" Basically I got myself a new squadron made of a side race of Asura. They are called the Future Fighters and they use a special power they developed to peak into the future to find future battles. Apparently I'm going to be some sort of battle Goddess in the future and they wanted to join me early. "
Solomon took a little while to process what Deam said. Then he nodded his head and spoke up.
" I can believe it, if anybody could become a War Goddess it'd be you. "
Both of the other two girls nodded their heads in agreement. Deam just smiled wryly.
" Whats been up with you Loretta. I have heard about some centaurion controlling an army of undead who had been tearing up the scenes. Something about mas . . . ."
" STOP! I wanted that to be a surprise for Solomon. "
Hearing this Solomon perked up his ears. He also gained a sort of shine in his eyes that always shows it's self when he is trying new ideas on formations.
" Tell me tell me tell me, come one you can't just tease me like this. Baabbbeeee coommmeeee oooonnnnn. I'll use my 72 Transformations and do that one thing you like. "
"" Gah to much information/ What the hell Solomon? ""
" I can tease you with and I will tease you, no amount of begging and favours will change that. You'll just have to find me in person quick. "
After that Solomon tried for the rest of the meeting to get Solomon to tell him. Even after the meeting was over Solomon tried doing plenty of stuff to convince Loretta to tell him. Loretta got so annoyed that she had to cut adult time short.

Chronicles of Xod (returning from hiatus)
After a long recovery over a chronic motion sickness issue, I feel I'm ready to return to writing this book. It might be slow at first, but I'm hoping to pick up where I left off. I apologize again for the long hiatus. The pages following are a true account. An account of how I, Josh--a teenage nerd from modern suburbia--ended up in a strange world filled with fantastic magic, bizarre creatures, and terrifying dungeons. Despite the troped-up fantasy feel of the world, this is hardly an ordinary tale. For one, don’t expect a happy ending. With the trials I’ve been through, the horrors I’ve seen and the atrocities I’ve committed, believe me when I tell you, this is not a happy tale filled with friendly rainbow bears or teenage flying unicorns. It’s more likely you’ll finish this book mentally scarred as I will not spare the details of my unfortunate adventures. With the help of my trusted companion Gui, I gain an insight that no one else in the world has. This knowledge allows me to exploit and, for lack of a better term, metagame the system which gave me a clear advantage over its residents. “With great power...,” someone might begin to quote to me. In my defense, I think maybe even you, reader, might have acted similarly with how this reality changed my view of good and evil. This story will be updated regularly on Wednesdays around 6 PM. There will only be about 1000 words per update. The focus is to finish the story before doing any major changes or editing. Please read as if this is a work in progress, not a finished product. Feel free to let me know if you see any error, whether glaring or minor. If you help me out, I'll be sure to add you to a thank you list at the front of the book when it is published. Chronicles of Xod is a first-person fantasy novel that follows the adventures of a young man from Earth. Through unknown circumstances, he finds himself in a fantasy world where life is not all wonders and happy endings. The story takes common fantasy concepts from my favorite video games, books and movies and gives them an adult edge. It also introduces some taboo concepts often glossed over by stories written for broad audiences. The style is meant to be immersive and heavily detailed. The short novel will be written in a way that attempts to bring a sense of realism to an unrealistic genre. Where there are realistic consequences and dangers in a world populated with violent monsters, cruel demons, bloodthirsty undead, and immoral bandits. In this fantasy world, the inhabitants are essentially gender blind as far as sexuality is concerned. There is also more variation amongst male and female physiology. This isn't meant to be any kind of promotion or demotion of social behavior in reality. Just a concept I thought would be an interesting idea to have in a fantasy setting. I highly discourage anyone from reading this material if you are personally concerned with being offended or traumatized. Both violent and sexual content will be graphically detailed. All characters involved in sexual scenes are mature and of the age of consent(18+).

My Roleplay Server
Given the chance to reincarnate in a world with two wishes, who would say no? Especially when you could live a life you've always wanted. This is supposed to be a relaxed story about a man fulfilling the dreams he couldn't in his first life. There will still be drama and more adult things, but overall it will be pretty chill. The action of the story will come in when he finishes making the server. As of right now, 4/6/2022, it's looking like this is going to be a slower-paced novel. Hopefully, in the future, I can get the pacing downright. This is my first released story, so feel free to give me all your constructive criticism. I do plan on finishing this story. Please point out any mistakes you see. This novel is also on Webnovel and Scribble Hub.
