Tian Long remembered that he actually doesn't know much about this world and that there's a perfect, walking encyclopedia with him right now.
He made up a random lie and asked. "Miss Jian, could you please give some general knowledge about this world to me? I've been training in an isolated place so I barely know anything."
Jian Meili looked strangely at him first and then replied. "Hmm, alright then."
"If you didn't know, our world, the Boundless Heaven World, could be said to be infinitely large so there are places that even I don't know of. There are five publicly known continents which are called, the Northern Glacial Continent, Barren Wasteland, Mystical Demonic Continent, Endless Forces Continent and the Transcendent Divine Continent. I'll briefly explain what they are exactly." She continued explaining to Tian Long as he listened like an attentive student.
After organizing everything he heard, Tian Long summarized everything.
______________________________________________
[Endless Forces Continent]: The continent where Tian Long is right now and the most populated domain of powerful influences.
______________________________________________
[Barren Wasteland]: Demonic Beasts run amok here and is considered their most populated domain.
______________________________________________
[Northern Glacial Continent]: Land of extreme frost. Full of mysterious treasures, demonic beasts, and even some human territories. However, the temperature makes it hard for one to live here.
______________________________________________
[Mystical Demonic Continent]: Territory of the demon race and other creatures.
______________________________________________
[Transcendent Divine Continent]: The place where peak powerhouses and influences are the most concentrated on. Along with being the continent with the most pure heavenly energy, the Transcendent Divine Continent is considered by everyone as a Sacred Land.
______________________________________________
"These are the currently known continents to the public. Of course, there are others that were discovered but remained hidden in the shadows secretly. Along with continents, there are also ancient countries and powerful organizations that are as strong or stronger than my empire. This world is infinitely boundless, and there are powers that remained in the shadows while being insanely strong, so I remind you to be careful when traveling the world." Jian Meili continued for a bit.
Tian Long thanked her then stood up, preparing to head deeper into the forest. He asked Jian Meili. "Miss Jian, I'm preparing to enter the core of this forest, are you still gonna stay here to recuperate or are you leaving?"
She thought for a moment and answered. "I feel like I'm about to raise a level in my cultivation. I'll just stay here for a few more days."
Tian Long nodded his head. He walked out of the cave and thought. 'There are tons of experience points for waiting for me in this forest. I can also use this chance to see my improvements, I can't let this opportunity go.'
After putting on his armor and taking out his spear, he then rushed swiftly deeper into the forest.
Jian Meili, after looking to the direction he went to for a while went back to cultivate, preparing to consolidate her foundation after being poisoned and finally break through to King Level 6.
Deep in the Lonely Devilwood Forest, Tian Long remember something and asked the system. "System, back then you said that once I reached the Grandmaster stage, your level would increase right?"
[ Ding! Correct, the host is able to upgrade the system to the next level now. Proceed the upgrade? ]
"Yes!"
[ Ding! Upgrading the system...1%...10%...55%...99%...100%! Process complete, the Apex System is currently Level 2. Display new functions? ]
"Yes, show me" Tian Long excitedly said.
[ Ding! Displaying the new functions of the system! ]
[ Ding! The system store's items have been improved. Ding! The information within the status of the desired target has been improved. ]
[ Ding! The Lottery feature is now active. ]
[ Ding! The Recruiting feature is now integrated. ]
[ Ding! The Sect-Building feature is now active. ]
[ Ding! The blacksmith and alchemist system guides are fully functional. ]
Tian Long grinned from ear to ear when he heard all the new functions. He asked the system. "What about the Bloodline-Fusing function?"
[ Ding! This feature will only be available once the host reaches the Saint Realm cultivation and upgrades the system to Level 4. ]
Tian Long nodded. "I still don't have enough points to buy bloodlines from the system store anyway so I guess it's fine for now."
Tian Long asked. "System, what is the Recruiting feature?"
[ Ding! The recruiting feature shows the talent of a person. Once the host opens a person status page, his or her talent details will appear as well. ]
Tian Long thought and grinned. 'So this function is paired with the sect-building feature. Seems like I need to make a sect as well. With the recruiting feature, I'll be able to recruit monstrously talented disciples. It seems that even my sect is bound to reach the apex. '
Tian Long was eager to increase his cultivation and leave this damnable forest once and for all. He started massacring the demonic beasts on his way as he got closer to the core of the forest.
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for killing a Level-4 Demonic Beast. The rewards are 50,000 experience points, 1500 apex points, and a demonic beast core. ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for killing a Level-4 Demonic Beast. The rewards are 50,000 experience points, 1500 apex points, and a demonic beast core. ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for killing a Level-4 Demonic Beast. The rewards are 50,000 experience points, 1500 apex... ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for killing... ]
[ Ding! Congratulations... ]
______________________________________________
After who knows how many hours of killing, he checked his experience points.
Cultivation: Grandmaster stage Level 7 ( 9,500 / 725,000 ).
He also checked his techniques but got disappointed as only the {Nine-Waves Influx Technique} leveled up to Level-2, the rest didn't change much.
He went back to his cave-base of operations and saw Jian Meili, sitting cross-legged as she absorbed the surrounding heavenly energy into her body.
Tian Long thought. 'She already finished consolidating her cultivation after leveling up within a short amount of time. Impressive indeed. Oh right, the recruiting feature, let's test it first. System, open her status page.'
[ Ding! ]

Tian Long was dumbfounded as he thought. 'Both Divine grade and Immortal grade for Innate Talent and Physique, she's really monstrously talented. And her Comprehension, Will, and Luck are out of this world. I feel sorry for the people in the same generation as her.'
After consolidating her cultivation, Jian Meili opened her eyes and saw Tian Long standing at the entrance, looking at her. She couldn't help but feel unsettled as her heart was pounding rapidly, however, her face remained expressionless.
After looking at her status page, Tian Long finally knew that this face of hers was a disguise. With that kind of talent and temperament, that plain face must be a cover. However, he didn't ask her to remove her disguise since he had a mask on as well.
He said to her. "Miss Jian, I'm leaving this forest the day after tomorrow, what about you?".
When she heard what he said, she couldn't help but be disappointed in her heart for some reason. Her face, however, still remained expressionless as she replied. "Okay. I'll leave as well on that day."
