Chapter 4 - Morning in Cultivation World And Digging?

When Raynor opened his eyes his vision was blurry, he felt that it wasn't his bed, and his nose was telling him that it wasn't his room, he closed his eyes then he opened again he made several blinks.

His vision return to normal then he saw it... his HUD... thus yesterday's events came back to him like a cold shower on summer day combined with a ton of bricks, his face turned pale.

'Oh god!!! Did I really said that to Qingyue!!! She is that lunatics Fiancé!, I knew there was always a chance I will meet her! but, my biggest reason for entering this world close to Floating Cloud City was for the divine crystal! And yet I met her a few hours after I entered this world!'

Raynor took a deep breath, he subconsciously started channelling his Profound energy, in a specific manner which caused him to calm down...

Few seconds later his eyes widened again.

'What did I just do!?!'

He closed his eyes and started to think

'With all the information in my head, how did IT not exploded?... Aeons of experiences... I wonder did my personality got influenced?... Just by thinking of Yesterday's brazen action and a little bit of manipulation on Qingyue... Well It could be related to my migraine... I rather should stop thinking this way!'

He once more used the calming technique, which in turn made him wonder what kind of techniques he knows?

'As system said, I haven't received any offensive techniques... but then again support CAN be used in offense if you know how...'

As Raynor started to search for any techniques, he stumbled on few which caused him to grin from ear to ear.

'Mental acceleration, mind partition, mind cultivation, soul strengthening... hmmm and something similar to Occlumency from HP universe, not bad... Let's begin with Mind partition...

Raynor changed from laying down into lotus sitting position, then he started doing breathing exercises, according to medical gods experience, it was quite easy as 3 god experienced made meditation natural thing for him.

Once the naturally relaxed he started to use the technique to split his mind in half, it's going to hurt but the results are worth it...

And thus without further adieu, he used it...

*HISSS*

"Its HURT LIKE HELL! " Raynor started panting, and countless beads of sweat were going down from his forehead, his face muscles were twitching like crazy...

But slowly pain was disappearing, he can still feel buzzing noise in his head but it's in background.

Next what he did was sorting memories, with mental acceleration he went through his own life in mere seconds... but other 3 gods experiences... probably will take years and it's ONLY their experiences, its good thing he doesn't have their personal life memories it would probably change him for real...

For now, he decided to use one mind partition just to sort experiences, another one will be day to day life.

Since he was meditating he decided to come up with a plan how to proceed forward, never before he did this, but appears he was already influenced by 3 gods experiences in some way

'Support type huh... maybe they are...'

First things first he needs to reach [Sovereign Profound] or higher as soon as possible...

'Its good thing I don't give a shit how I am going to reach the top... If this was a game I would already edited my game files... Its good thing I already have my shortcuts ready for me...'

Raynor grinned as his right-hand index finger glowed with profound energy..., he quickly drew runic letter for 'comprehension'.

This time it was not to be written on walls or boulders... this one is for soul inscription, next one is 'soul' and the third one is for 'attachment' as he finished three runes mixed together and flew inside Raynor body, for few second he felt like he entered the sauna, as his body started to sweat, but soon it passed.

He quickly dived into his mind and saw a runic letter glowing in his mind, he felt his mind is much more clearer, and his other part of mind, speed of sorting memories and experiences increased considerably.

'Hmmm since I doing this why not get full package?'

"I wonder...Will it going to work?..." Raynor drew runic letter for 'Primordial' there was no reaction but he expected that, next one was 'Energy'.

Alone these two can't do nothing but what if he fuses them together and add another two like 'Soul Attachment'?

Once it was done, Raynor felt pressure appear from a small ball of floating letters, they slowly entered him and he felt like something started to flood his Profound veins like high tide of water flooding dried up river channels.

'Oh shit...'

He could feel Primordial energy-consuming the lesser Profound Energy or more well known as profound energy at the same time he started to experience Breakthroughs...

[First of Nascent Profound]

[Tenth of Nascent Profound]

[First of True Profound]

[Tenth of True Profound]

Raynor felt his profound veins calmed down, but the Runic letter continuously going to feed his body with Primordial energy, in other words, he will be always cultivating...

Its something similar to Naruto and his seal, where he constantly gets Nine tails chakra.

'Well one cheat down several more to go...' He got up from his new bed, he did couple stretches he heard few bones pop.

"Hmm much better... I wonder how physically strong I am now? " He started to walk towards doors, as he was about to open he heard a knock, he opened the doors and on another side, he saw her... his mind stopped working as she wasn't wearing a veil as he could finally see her face, which stole his breath away, same was for her as she was staring at him with very wide eyes...

Her first words were... "how?..."

Her voice snapped him out from her beauty induced daze, he quickly founded a technique to fight such things and channelled primordial energy to activate it, taking a deep breath.

"Morning... how's have you been?" She snapped out as well and answered back.

"...Morning.. breakfast is ready... do you want to join us?" Raynor looked at her.

'She sounds more like the book version at this moment is it because of my increase in power?, in other words, she is nervous... It took me merely two days to reach this level while people in this city trainer all their life to reach Spirit Profound..., I bet she is nervous that I am going to leave her behind..., No matter the place girls always have their insecurities... '

"Sure... lead the way..." Both of them started walking, she from time to time would look at him, but she didn't asked anything yet...

"So you wondering how I reached Spirit Profound? " she nodded, Raynor sighed

"Easy actually... I changed my energy type " She raised her delicate eyebrow at him.

"...What does it even mean? " He scratched back of his head a thought for a moment.

"Basically I use much more potent energy now, which in turn affect my body, in turn, it pushed my cultivation to Spirit Profound " she nodded, at the same time there was a glint in her eyes which Raynor couldn't put a finger on, the same time his back hair stood up, his godly perception warned him that Qingyue is planning something.

'Ok... let's calm down for a moment! According to the book, she can be really dedicated to her cultivation because its the only way for her to reach the realm of gods! But now there is a guy who can bring her to that place so what would you do ??? Oh shit... ' He subconsciously gulped some saliva down.

"So why you didn't put your Veil on? " Raynor decided to fish for information, she saw a her lips went up by few millimetres, if not for his godly perception he wouldn't notice it, but he did, he saw her smirk, which means it was on purpose!

"We have a deal... Raynor... so I am doing my part of it... " she said with a very faint smirk, she saw his eyes widened for a moment... it was her victory.

Arriving at dining room, Raynor eyes wandered around he wanted to see everything he can about this Ancient China like Universe, so far he liked, he is willing to have a summer home in this universe!

He walked over towards table and took a seat, Qingyue followed after him, she took her seat very close to him, their shoulders touched each others, this, of course, got Raynor's attention, in a way he was expecting something like this, but slowly to change! not instantaneous!!!

Soon remaining Xia household members arrived, Qingyue's father Xia Hongyi and her little brother Xia Yuanba, her little brother is only 13 years old yet his height already is quite abnormal.

'So this is how a person with tyrannical veins looks like...he is big and when he awakens those veins he will be literal giant! '

"Master Raynor, I hope guest pavilion was to your liking ?" Qingyue father looked at Raynor, he, of course, noticed how close his daughter was sitting to him, he wanted to ask how it evolved into this, but he knew to ask such question at the appropriate time.

"Yes... Senior Xia, it's most satisfying... " Raynor was not used to the Chinese way of talking all the tongue bending.

Xia Hongyi waved his hand.

"Think nothing of it! " then he showed his son " this is Xia Yuanba my youngest son! Yuanba greet Master Raynor! " The boy quickly stumbled and gave a greeting bow, Raynor was not used to such things he only saw stuff like that on TV, so he simply nodded and hide his bewildered expression under his poker face.

Minutes later the food arrived, and everyone started eating but Qingyue looked at Raynor who was having a problem eating with sticks, her eyes blinked at him.

'Does his world have different cutlery?'

"Raynor... in your world do you use something else then sticks?" her question got him to lose a piece of food from his sticks, he looked at her.

"Yeah we use forks and knives and our food is a little bit different " her expression changed from stoic to full wonderment.

"I see... do you need help?" Raynor sighed at her question, why da f0ck 3 gods experiences don't have Chinese cutlery in them???, he wanted to growl but instead he simply agreed with her, Qingyue got even closer to him and took his hand with hers, and started showing how properly use those infernal sticks.

Of course Raynor noticed that her twin peaks were touching his hand much more, and the girl had a small smirk on her face!

'So she doing this on purpose! Since when she is such seductress? I guess my situation allows her to evolve...well then let's enjoy the attention she gives'

Raynor smirked internally, since his half baked plan is working, the girl is at the moment most interested in making him fall in love with her instead of chasing the cultivation.

20 minutes later Qingyue and Raynor were walking towards servant area where Raynor can get a shovel, as his next plan is to get the 50-kilo purple crystals from mountainside close to a city, He is more than confident of finding them!

"So why you need a shovel? " Qingyue was quite interested in why someone from 'Higher' world needs a servant tool...

"For digging of course! and same time I will be collecting some herbs from mountainside as well..." Raynor said with a smirk which told her that he is not telling her for now!

"Very well... I will be in Library researching something if you need me... "

After getting his shovel Raynor left towards Mountainside in north of City and Qing Yue went to Families Library... He had some idea what she is Researching...

Walking through East gates Raynor observe plains in front of him as well as mountains in the distance

'That's like 10 Kilometres away!, Stupid Wuxia logic!' He growled at the absurd way of people think in this world.

Raynor rolled Primordial energy in his body and started running, he quickly realized that he has tunnel vision and Mountains started to look much more closely.

'Sh1t how fast I am actually running?' Before he realised he was at Mountainside, He looked around none of the trees he actually knows of...

He started channel Primordial energy and activated his Godly Perception, his senses spread out through mountain in front of him, the experiences he inherited allowed him to form Godly perception passively and actively granting him a six sense.

His soul is still that of human yet it became old like that of god, thus forming Godly perception, still, he has another way of scanning this mountain, and that's is sonar, his Primordial energy is ten times more potent then profound energy granting him much deeper scanning range.

Raynor realised this mountain doesn't have any crystals he is looking for, yet its still morning, so he decided to look for herbs or anything else interesting, after walking for half an hour he stumbled on first herbs, they look unique nothing like he has ever seen before on Earth, he doubts there are any grasses on earth which have this kind of colour or alien look.

Yet in cultivation world it's on bottom of the ladder, and yet with Medical god experience it has hundreds of uses..., he walked over and picked it up then stored in his inventory, then he looked around to see if there is another stack, but to his disappointment, there was only one of profound meridian grass, a very weak piece of profound energy saturated grass, for any 'great alchemist' it would be trash among trashes, but for someone who can bent reality and has medical god knowledge even trash has its uses

Especially if you know how to combine with another easy to find grass... this stuff would allow anyone to enter the peak of elementary profound... Raynor knows he could sell this type of pills to Qingyue father and make some starting money to open something like a store...

Walking over to the other side of mountain Raynor saw more mountains in distance, its good thing they are not that big, but if this continues like this he can spend months here...

Looking around Raynor spotted quite a large tree, its stands out like sore thumb, not only it was massive it was thick as well, and big in height.

'Hmmm let's see if I can use this big boy as a relay for my senses...' walking towards massive tree, Raynor send Primordial energy into his finger and spread them apart then he slammed his hand into a tree trunk, then he used his other hand in the same fashion, pulling himself up, he started climbing a massive tree ...

Ten minutes later he was on highest branch and he was watching one of best views he has ever seen... mountains in distance and forest as far as eyes could see, its gives ancient and untouched feeling to it...

"This is one of the best views I have ever seen! Too bad all the cultivators in this world are so obsessed with cultivation that they can't enjoy this!" looking around one more time, he turned towards tree trunk and started inscribing runes...

Once done he started channelling Primordial energy, spreading out his senses over 10-kilometre radius Raynor sensed high consecration of profound energy between mountains...

'Of course between mountains! That's like so cliché!!!'

Once he tagged crystal on his own minimap he started to focus on other things which give off profound energy like metal ores and herbs

After tagging all the location on his minimap, Raynor then destroyed runes on the tree, and started to descend towards the ground.

Once back on the ground he looked back at the massive tree.

'Holy shit I can't believe I went up all the way there!' Once again Raynor felt his personality got effected by those 3 gods experiences, no normal man go up into a tree who is up to 100 metres or so without proper gear.

'Then again I stopped being a normal man once I beat god in a chess match...' sighting to himself he started running towards crystal location.

'I should use this method of searching more, combined with my minimap, it turned into something like open-world RPG.

Arriving at the supposed place Raynor looked around and he noticed several splintered trees, and at the supposed centre, where black thunderstruck trees were incinerated and what left of it... burned black like charcoal.

'If something like this would happen on Earth it would probably send a country back to the stone age, not only these trees are much more robust then earth, they are much bigger then Earths, this only proves this incident was man-made or in wuxia logic... god-rank expert made'

Raynor walked to the centre and put his hand on the ground, he sends a pulse of energy, what he got back made him grin.

'Jackpot!'

He pulled out his shovel from inventory, then he frowned for a second, he looked at the shovel and sighed, and decided to add some runes on it otherwise it will take him hours to dig since its quite deep in the earth.

A few hours later, around mid-day Raynor's shovel hit something hard.

"Bingo! And for those Phoenix snobs, it took days to get them out! Ha! " Raynor in all of his joy touched the purple crystal and activate his inventory, without even realising he pulled Crystal into his inventory.

"Oh SHIT!!!"

*THUD*

Falling at least 1.5 metres on his head, Raynor quickly pulled his head up from the pile of dirt, Spitting stuff from his mouth "I can believe I broke the first law of Minecraft!!!" Standing back up he did cleaner himself up and scanned with his sonar and sense he came out empty, he sighed again.

'Can't get greedy like this !'

Decided that its good time to leave this hole, he focused his energy at legs and jumped out from it.

Once out he decided to collect all the valuables and then find a cave to cultivate using these Crystals....
