Martial Research Master

“What have you found.” Another voice spoke up. It was the captain this time, which meant there was someone else in the cabin too.

“It is the boy whom you just conned.” The voice said. The captain appeared visibly irritated by the allegation.

“I didn’t coon him. He asked for guidance and I gave him a huge gift in terms of increasing his containing capacity and opening his channels to the level that they could actively harness world energy.”

“You asked twenty barks of Extrem Yin tree from him. It’s naked extortion. The bark itself contains ten times the world energy you gave him, and that is just one part of the whole composition. Yet you claim that you didn’t con him.”

“I didn’t force him. I asked for a price for me to help him in world energy culture. Agreeing to my price was his decision. Honestly, I had expected him to haggle with me, but he is quite resourceful.”

“Don’t you feel that his backing would be extremely powerful? That boy is just a minor mortal king cultivator, yet he not only knew about the boat’s existence but came to the world border to cultivate world energy. It was as if he was guided by someone very powerful. He even had so many pieces of extreme Yin tree. I shouldn’t need to stress its value right?”

The captain decided to stay silent but the other voice continued.

“What is more impressive is that he was the one who has benefitted from the last deal. When you opened up his body channels and increased his capacity, you must have tapped into some kind of latent potential. His channels, as well as capacity, are increasing by the second.”

.....

“Give him another month and he would have doubled his capacity at the very least and his channels would be ten times sturdier. He might even be able to cultivate world energy within the various worlds. I never expected him to have a proper estimation of the time required to cultivate.”

“I guess he is lucky to have come across someone as charitable as me.” The captain spoke.

“It is all due to his talent and efforts. What is even more impressive is that he managed to combine world energy and law energy to give rise to a new type.” The captain grew stiff altogether. He was left shocked by the revelation.

“What kind of energy are we talking about?”

“It is somewhat similar to world law energy, but since he used something of his own, you could say that it is free of the world’s influence altogether. Never saw that coming were you.” The voice said in a mocking tone.

“I think you should guide him a bit more in world energy. There is no one better to do so than you who is traveling world borders regularly. You can help him understand the energy much better. You should use this as investing in a potentially powerful figure of the future.

“We will see where he gets at the end of the month. If he managed to achieve what you said he did, I will invest.”

“I guess the boy scored well this time.” The voice said.

“You are quite confident in his ability to grow.”

“Let’s say I can see far more than you could.” The voice spoke as it vanished into thin air, leaving the captain alone in the cabin.

.....................

Li Meng continued his training and finally, it resulted in around a quarter of the energy being transferred into a different quality altogether. Li Meng still wasn’t satisfied with the result. He decided to continue until he managed to convert the whole energy into a new kind.

He decided to divide his daytime into three sections. The first part was to continue his fill and drain routine. The second part was where he started to infuse arts with world energy. It was to make his body more and more efficient in processing the world’s energy. His art became far more powerful as time went by.

The mixture of traditional energy and world energy was too powerful.

Finally, the third part of the day was reserved for the mixing of the two energies and creating a new one. The days went by and finally, the end of the month arrived.

................

The month end-

Li Meng was sitting at the end of the boat with his hands raised. A sapphire ball of energy rested in his hands which felt different than anything he contained in his body. It was far more powerful as the energy radiating from it was extremely potent.

“I finally succeeded.” The captain returned to the place where Li Meng was sitting. He raised his hands to take the fees for next month, but Li Meng said something else.

“I would like to return to the place where I lifted from.” The captain nodded and took three more pieces of the extreme yin tree. The boat began to get back to the Mistry-Valley.

A day later they were finally in the Misty Valley and Li Meng saw the land. He decided to bow to the captain out of respect before finally going for the stairs.

“Wait” The captain’s voice sounded for the first time during the trip. ” I am impressed by your achievements.” The captain’s words shocked Li Meng, but he managed to gain his composure.

“I thank you for the compliment sir.” Li Meng said in a calm tone.

“I had a bet with another guy. The topic of the best was your talent. I bet you are not up to the mark and he decided otherwise. To my surprise, you proved me wrong. Hence I need to pay my dues.” The captain raised his hands and a blurry outline of a cuboid shape began to appear. It soon materialized and looked like a book.

The book was covered in hardwood binding and even from the distance between the two, LI meng could feel extremely familiar energy spreading from it. It was world energy.

“This is something that the cultivators in world energy asp[ire to get their hands on. Yet only one person managed to cultivate it to my knowledge. If you can cultivate even the first chapter, I will be awaiting you in this region. Take it as a test from me. Pass it, and I will give you something as a reward which might be useful to you. But until then, you will be banned from ever entering the zone.”

The man flicked his hand and powerful energy encapsulated Li Meng and his avatars and teleported them. Li Meng’s vision went blurry and when he could see clearly, he found himself outside the Misty valley.

“Just how strong is he?” Li Meng was shocked by this experience.
