Chapter 19 Basics Of Cultivation
I returned to the city. The card that I had could be used anywhere in any of the reputable stores, apparently, and they would automatically store how much money was used. I knew all the recipes, and knew which herbs I needed to make certain pills. For now, I had money taken care of, and I needed to grow stronger myself. After using the Qi Condensation pills, I felt stronger than ever, and I knew that this was the right time to grow using more pills.
I did not know what cultivation meant in this world versus what the system showed me, but I was thrice as powerful as I was before, and all of that happened in just one day.
I made more Qi Condensation Pills, and this time, I bought a few jade containers to store them in. Then, I returned back home, where my father was waiting for me.
"Where have you been all this time?" he asked me.
"I was going into the city, seeing how much has changed." I lied immediately.
"You were gone just three months. Not much changed. Now, it is time for you to put that gift that that master gave you. I will give you a skill that you can use to start cultivating. You will know at which point you are. After you are ready, I will also tell you where you are going wrong. I want you to be able to get to the seventh layer of Qi Condensation, at least. That way, the family will still support you." he said.
I nodded, and took the book that he gave me.
"Remember. No one is allowed to see that book except for you. It is a core secret of the family, and no one except those of the pure lineage are allowed to use this special cultivation method." he said as he left the room.
I sat on my bed and tried to clear my head a little. My father just gave me some random book and told me to start cultivating, or whatever. This was all weird beyond anything else. I opened the book. The first few pages were the basics of cultivation, and I couldn't thank him more for giving this to me.
With this, I understood how this world worked, and how the cultivation standards were. At first, there was the Qi Condensation Realm. Then the Foundation Establishment Realm, the Core Formation realm, Nascent Soul, and the Soul Formation Realms. The Nascent Soul Realm was called the Houtian Realm, and the soul formation realm was also called the Xiantian Realm, which was probably what the elder in the hall was saying when I first arrived here.
Each realm was divided into nine layers. I was in the fifth layer when my father checked, and I was sure that after taking the Qi Condensation Pill, I was almost at the peak of the whole realm. I flipped the pages, and looked at the art itself.
It outlined a few ways to circulate the Qi within the body, and a way to gather more from the outside world. It was a way to increase the cultivation through meditating. So, it was a much easier way to cultivate than whatever the Heaven Devouring Art was.
Ping!
"System strongly urges Host not to learn any other cultivation art. The Heaven Devouring Art is the best cultivation art in the cultivation world, and learning any other will hamper its development. It is strongly suggested that the User says a story about how you are using the cultivation method that the master taught you, but you do not know how to explain it to anyone else." the system suddenly said.
"I see. I will do that. I knew that there was a reason that I grew so fast compared to everyone else here. Turns out that I have the best art. Thank you for the cheat, system. Now what though? How will I be able to know which realm I am in compared to everyone else? I mean, the whole years method of cultivation is pretty useless now." I asked.
"The system can offer to change the method of measurement. But, if it does, then it will not be able to revert back until three months have passed." the system said.
"You are saying that there was a choice like that? Then why didn't you say that before? Just do that now. Change the whole thing so that I will be able to see what I am compared to the rest of the world." I hastily said.
Ping!
Updating System...
10%...40%....90%.... completed!
"User will now be able to access his cultivation through the new method of measurement." the system pinged.
"System Homepage" I called out.

"Wait a minute! The cultivation increased from one year to three years right? Then how was the increase only three layers? This is not right. It is supposed to be at least the peak of the Qi Condensation realm right? This is just unfair. Now I need to make a few more Qi Condensation pills and increase my cultivation." I sighed.
"System urges Host not to do that. Using pills excessively will cause the strength of the user to be significantly lower than peers. User has to participate in fights, and increase fighting capability to stay strong and become stronger than everyone else." the system said.
"Yeah, I guessed that this was the case. Well then. I think that all that I have to do is focus on learning the two arts that I got in the shop so that I can actually do something in actual fights." I said, sighing.
