Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

Fate Sense...

That was what Arthur decided to call his ability to sense fortune, and at random times, see the fate of others.

Although, such times were very few.

Arthur believes the reason he had such ability was because of the Gem of Fate. Maybe, entering the cultivation world, activated such talent.

He doesn't have any ability related to the other gems though. But this is enough for him for now.

Since his rebirth, he has not been able to communicate with the gems.

But he knows that he would be able to do so once he had enough strength and ability. After all, they were still in the world within his soul.

Arthur was unsure of what realm he has to reach to be able to access the gems and the Nine Heavens Palace in his soul.

"I'll get there eventually. Time to leave this place," said Arthur as he stood up from where he was seated.

He took the book he just finished reading and returned it to the shelf.

Arthur could be called the first in the history of the Empire that read all the books in the Royal Library.

It contains knowledge that was amassed for thousands of years.

The number of books there was nothing to scoff at. And Arthur read through all of them in less than two years.

Because of his powerful soul, or maybe just a natural talent. He had a perfect memory, and only needed to give a glance at a page and everything on it will be stored in his mind.

Like, he didn't need to read the entire thing. It's as though his eyes were able to scan the page's content and store them in his memory.

"Now if I say that I am the second most knowledgeable person on the continent, no one would dare say that they are first," Arthur said with a smirk.

After that, he went down to the library and got to the ground floor. Walking towards the entrance, he stopped and looked at the library attendant that sat behind the counter.

He was an old man with grey hair and a very long beard. He had his eyes closed at the moment, but Arthur knew that he was able to perceive all that occurs in the Royal Library.

'One of those powerful cultivators who for some reason became a simple librarian, and getting no respect.'

'Typical, cultivation world shit,' thought Arthur.

Arthur gave a bow to the man, before leaving.

Immediately after Arthur left, the old man opened his eyes and looked at the door where Arthur passed through.

'A very perceptive youngster. And they call him a waste? Ignorant fools,'

**********

Within a lavishly decorated sitting room. Arthur sat, with a young girl by his side.

"So, Imperial Father has made the declaration then?" Arthur asked, looking at the beauty by his side.

The girl had smooth and straight hair, with a bright red color, that matched her eyes. She had a very attractive figure for her age and matched with a beautiful face.

She was the dream girl of the Empire, the only daughter of the Emperor.

Princess Anastasia...

"Yes, the winner of the Grand Martial Arts Tournament will become the Crown Prince of the Empire, and shall inherit the throne," Anastasia said.

"I see. It's all according to plan then," Said Arthur with a smirk.

"But do have the confidence to win? You know you are already way behind on the path of cultivation."

"And there are even more hidden geniuses around the empire," said Anastasia with a hint of worry in her tone.

Although she was confident in Arthur, she still had her worries. She wouldn't want to see him hurt.

Arthur turned to stare at her in the eyes and placed his hand on hers. He smiled and said, "you don't have to worry. Have you forgotten who I am?"

Anastasia rolled her eyes at him and withdraw her hand.

"Yeah, of course, how could I forget? In your words, 'you are the main character of the universe'."

Arthur grinned, and then stood up.

"I've got to go now, Anna."

"So soon? I wanted you to accompany me to the academy."

"Sorry but I've got things to do. Maybe next time," said Arthur.

"Fine, you promised!"

"Promise?...but I..."

"Ya ya...you already promised, and I don't care what you say afterward. Oh, I just remembered, I am runny late already, I'm leaving."

Anastasia ran out of the house after speaking.

"Hah, this girl. Still acting so childish."

Arthur shook his head and went outside, leaving the building which was Anna's.

*********

At his place, which was designed as lavish as that of the princess, Arthur was seated cross-legged within a small pool that only reached his neck.

The pool was filled with milk-like liquid that glowed slightly.

If any knowledgeable person was here right now, he would be shocked by what was happening.

That was because the milk-like liquid was no ordinary milk. This was a very pure form of star essence energy, that was condensed into liquid form.

By absorbing it, one would be able to lay a perfect foundation for the future and not just that. It also enhances the ability of a cultivator to refine and absorb energy.

That means, amount and refining speed. Thereby raising cultivation speed by a great margin, apart from others.

Arthur had gotten this milk by using his Fate Sense. He had been using it for a few months now, and this was the last of it.

With this liquid, he had laid a perfect foundation for when he begins to cultivate. And he was also able to strengthen his body to a certain extent.

This made his body to be comparable to Body Tempering Stage, cultivators of the intermediate level.

The path of cultivation starts with the Physique Transformation Realm, which is divided into three stages.

They are;

* The Body Tempering Stage

* The Stellar Assimilation Stage, and...

* The Martial Spirit Stage.

And each stage is further subdivided into ten levels. With ranks 1 - 3 being the beginner rank, 4 - 6 being the intermediate rank, 7 - 9 being the advanced rank, and 10 being the peak rank.

The star essence liquid was unique in such a way that it doesn't need to be actively refined. And would seep into the cultivator's body on its own, as long you take it.

Or like Arthur is doing, soak in it. Which was extremely lavish.

A few hours passed and the pool became transparent as the star essence energy in the liquid had been completely absorbed and assimilated.

Arthur opened his eyes and let out a breath, "Hah..."

"My body's foundation has been set to perfection already. I don't think there would be anyone with such a body that is perfect for cultivation in the entire realm," Arthur said.

This was because, the Star Essence Liquid, was beyond rare. No one had ever seen one or found one within the Mortal Emperor Realm.

Arthur left the pool, dried his body, and put on his clothes. Leaving the room, he came to another place, that was broader and had training equipment within.

Getting there, he practiced a set of Martial arts moves for a very long time before he stopped.

He panted for breath and sat down in exhaustion. He waved his hand a bottle of water appeared in his hand, from which he drank large gulps of water.

"Ah... that's it for today," said Arthur.

"Now...?!"

Arthur stopped speaking as he suddenly sense something.
