Chapter-4 The Lord realm

'Lord realm'? talk about cheesy naming sense. Well, it could have been worse, so I should be relieved with this much.

"Once a practitioner enters this realm, he attains eternal life, and a marginal boost in pure body strength." the Wanderer said.

Of course I know about the benefit of eternal lifespan else why would I even bother to waste my entire life on aura cultivation. But increase in physical strength? Usually advancing from one stage to another never brought any extra benefit. But I do feel like my physical strength has increased even though I have reduced in size.

"And they will cease to use the aura derived from the world, in return they will start to use the aura derived from their soul. The lethality of the aura generated from the soul is far stronger than the aura from the world."

"Aura from the soul?"

"Yes, aura from the soul, it's believed that the soul of all living being generate their own specific aura, but the quantity generated is far too minute for any use. So in order to gather and store the aura from the soul, martial spirits created from the aura of the world is used."

I see.. so the ultimate goal of human, earth and heaven realm is to develop a martial spirit; that does make a lot of sense.

"But even with a martial spirit the aura gathered from the soul is still minute, as martial spirits doesn't generate aura but only stores the aura released by the soul."

Urgh...So the tiny purple puddle in my mindscape must be the aura gathered in seventy years, talk about underwhelming. I wonder how much seconds can it be used in a fight before depleting seventy years of supply.

"Now let's talk about martial spirit. It is a psuedo-soul created from the aura collected in the dantian of a practitioner, the shape and nature of the martial spirit vary from people to people. It's speculated that it's takes the nature of the law which is closest to the soul of the practitioner."

Closest, huh.... I did live two lives so it does make sense that I'm closest to samsara compared to other laws.

"A practitioner of Lord realm will have multiple martial spirits, higher the amount, the stronger they will be in the future."

"So what is the average number of martial spirits that a practitioner of Lord realm can have? " I asked in order to find out my potential.

"Sorry to disappoint you but the known Lord realm practitioners are known to keep their number of martial spirits a secret, so I have no clue about that."

A secret? hmm.. Although it is irritating to not know the answer, their behavior does make sense as I too will not be publicizing my number of spirits.

Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.

"Well, that's about the basic info .. the other information that you need to know can be read from these books, ohh! and don't forget to read about 'Divine spark'" She said as she pushed a stack of books.

'Divine spark?' It does have an overbearing name, wish it's not only the name that is domineering like the other things of this world.

But still, how much time has she done this? From the fluency of her language to her physical actions, all points to an expert who has gone through this scenario dozens of time. It makes me remember the glib tongue of the waiters of restaurant.

"Now to my main objective."

Well, judging from her manners and all the information she unveiled in front of me, she definitely does not look like an enemy but before that-

"Before that, can you tell me why I have become a small child after breaking to lord realm?"

This is something I wanted to ask, I do know that once you break in to lord realm you will be rejuvenated, but becoming small? that was not within my expectation.. The hard earned muscles that took me years to develop is gone just like that .. poof..

"You mean to say that you weren't this small before?" She asked in suprise.

"Of course not."

"Hmm.. I did hear that Lord realm practitioners can change their body size, but even that can only be maintained for a short period of time."

"..."

"Sorry to disappoint you, I haven't heard any similar case like yours in any other practitioners that I have visited."

So I'm stuck in this form? Now my only hope is that I grew up with time. There is no way I can wield a spear or sword in this form.. the spear itself would be far taller than me.

"Anyway back to my objective; it's about your title."

"Title?"

"Anyone who has entered the stage above the heaven is eligible for a title."

"So you came all the way here to just talk about the title?"

"Yes, as it is my duty to record all the Lord realm practitioner's chosen title in this book." She said as she pointed to a book that she placed earlier before me.

A book that contains all the name of powerhouses of this world. hmm...

"And for the record you can only see your page in that book as visible." She told me as she saw me flipping through the pages.

Privacy protection? Talk about an advanced book. In all my life as a practitioner I have never come across anything like this, must be some super rare item. Didn't she say it was a treasure born in this wo0rld?

NO : 29

Name : Saul Alister

Title : None

"..."

what I saw on the page made me dumbfounded, an entire page dedicated just for these three lines? talk about extravagant. Since it is not my property, I kept my mouth shut.

"So did you decide your title Lord Alister?"

Hmm.. Unlike me who have reached the lord realm through hard work alone, my fellow peers of lord realm must be those one in a million geniuses with special destinies. There is no way I can match them in talent or resources. And It took me years of pure hard work and unwavering dedication to achieve my lifelong dream, thus I should be prudent in my behavior and try not to catch their attention by performing something overly flashy and getting myself killed before I can even enjoy my life.

So the chosen title must not be too overbearing, nor should it be too obscure else it would draw unwanted attention to me.

"Can you tell me the titles of some practitioners for reference?"

"Sure why not.....There are the famous ones Progenitor, Lady of the starry sky, Mas-"

"wait, wait.. just tell the titles of the not so famous and average practitioners."

"...."

"For reference."

"Lord of earth, Master of shadow, Sword saint, Master of the evergreen forest and so on.."

hmm.. I can see some pattern in them. Then let's go with.

"Lord of Samsara."
