Chapter 21: System finally completely unlocks!

Chapter 21: System finally completely unlocks!

I got up early in the morning, I decided it was the best time to leave for the sect. If I leave now, I should be able to return by evening.

After last night's passionate love-making, Xenia was sleeping peacefully. There was a serene smile on her face, it seemed as if she was still in a beautiful dream.

Without bothering her, I slowly got out of bed.

Even though I didn't want to return to the sect, I had no choice.

After all, last night I promised Xenia that I will bring back her mother's earrings that she had forgotten in her cave.

As soon as I came out of the room and got freshened up, I saw Saharika, who had just gotten-up and came out into the hall.

After briefing her on my reason to leave I left my house.

While on my way, I found a desolate place to accept last night's system reward and check the new things I missed. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

"Okay, this place beside the lake is perfect. Let's first accept last night's cultivation experience and then check other new things."

I sat cross-legged,

"System, I am ready to accept the experience that is stored in system space."

The moment I spoke, I suddenly felt a large amount of Natural-Qi from the surroundings rushing towards me. Even though my talent was only F+, the cultivation experience of 110 years was no joke.

You know, a normal Qi-gathering fifth stage person can only live up to 110 years unless he breaks through beyond the eight or ninth layer of Qi-gathering. Under normal circumstances, given my aptitude, cultivating for 110 years straight was almost impossible.

It was the same feeling I felt the first time, my meridians were forcibly widened as muscles and tendons in my body became bulkier.

My aura started increasing rapidly~

Qi-Gathering early-sixth stage, mid-sixth stage, late-sixth...early-seventh, late-seventh.....

Finally, my aura stabilised at the late-eighth stage of Qi-Gathering.

Feeling the surge in strength, I clenched my fists in excitement, "Sure enough, this feeling of getting stronger is really intoxicating."

"Oof, this black thing on my skin.it stinks!"

There were some impurities on my skin that were forced out in the process of breaking-through.

After cleaning my body with the lake water, it was time to move to the second part of the rewards~

"There's at least a possibility to complete this condition."

"But what's with the first item?"

"System, are you sure I need this ring? It seems a bit ordinary..even its function is not written", I felt skeptical about this item.

Feeling dissatisfaction from Shenshah, the system instantly replied,

[The items that appear in the system store are based on the active variables which includes: luck, talent, destiny, fate, aptitude and some other mysterious things concerning both the host as well as people associated with the host. Therefore, no item will be useless as it can help in some way or another. It's just that the host may or may not find it useful according to his approach to various situations.]

"I understand", I nodded my head in affirmation.

This was completely a matter of perspective. Just like some games I used to play which had two or more routes depending on the choices the player made, there were some items that were helpful in one route while being completely useless in the other.

"Okay, let's see the second thing", I took a deep breath before choosing Missions tab,

[First Main Mission (Not compulsory to complete): Climb up to the 20th floor of the tower.

Reward: Excellent Bloodline options for you and your wives.]

[Side Mission (Not compulsory to complete): In process of being generated....

Please Note: Side missions will keep generating periodically depending upon the situations the host faces. Rewards can vary depending upon the missions issued.]

I finally got the gist of everything, everything was explained so meticulously that it would be a shame If I still couldn't understand it.

"It seems my guess is true."

"In the end I still need to climb the tower."

I already had a premonition that sooner or later I will have to climb to the higher floors because according to general information available to the public- as you keep going higher, the natural-Qi keeps getting denser while laws that restrict our breakthrough become weaker and weaker. Plus, only on higher floors can you start to have an understanding of various laws.

It's not only me, anyone who wants to keep moving ahead on this immortal road, must climb the tower.

Not to forget, many floors have their own speciality like some have different races like elves, vampires, mermaids etc; some have breath-taking scenery, some have advanced technologies that I only saw in sci-fi movies and so on. All this only makes this journey even more exciting and worthwhile.

"Ahhh!"

"There are still many things to consider and take care of before I decide anything."

"Anyways, let's first head to the sect and get Xenia's earrings", after adjusting my dishevelled clothes, I once again started my journey uphill.
