"Choose a cultivation technique carefully, as it is going to be one of the most important decisions of your cultivation journey."

Elder Mike announced in a serious voice, and signaled them to enter and choose.

Finally getting permission from the elder, David rushed inside the hall and started to go through books one by one.

According to what Elder Mike had just told them, it was better to choose your first cultivation technique as a simple technique. After familiarizing yourself with the process, you can switch your technique once again.

Although cultivation techniques were important, what was even more important was their Crystallisation of life.

They had to choose a technique that matched their Crystallisation of Life.

But here, David found himself in a dilemma; unlike others, he wasn't familiar with his Crystallization of Life.

As he had just truly awakened unlike them who had the clear advantage.

Moreover, he couldn't ignore the fact that he had two Crystallisations.

Bank of Eternal Origin seemed to be an auxiliary type of Crystallisation, and he didn't even know what his second Crystallisations of Life was capable of.

He just knew its name.

"Domain of Zenith Sovereign."

Other than that he had no ideas about it.

David glanced through books after books without any direction.

Unlike him, the luxuriously dressed youth moved with clear purpose.

His eyes seem to be looking for something in this ocean of books.

Suddenly, the youth expression turned overjoyed and he rushed in the direction of David.

David was surprised by the sudden appearance of the luxuriously dressed youth and frowned.

Wondering why the guy had suddenly appeared here?

However, the youth ignored David and looked at two books with a difficult expression on his face.

As if he was not sure about which book to choose.

Suddenly, youth took a deep breath and decisively chose one of the books and left.

David watched this scene without any reaction.

From the youth reaction, he could guess that he had some insider information.

Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.

Suddenly, understanding something David walked towards the book that youth hadn't chosen.

The book appeared ancient; it was covered in dust as if one had even bothered to touch it in years.

David knew the value of insider information, and decisively chose the book and left.

He walked back to where the elder was and told him about his choices.

Elder Mike simply looked at him and nodded.

He didn't seem to be particularly interested in David's book.

"Come here."

He signaled David to come near him.

As instructed before he handed the book to Elder Mike and waited.

As soon as the book reached the hands of Elder Mike it started to glow with a silvery color.

Elder Mike's eyes flashed and he threw the flow in the direction of David's forehead.

The silvery glow hit David's forehead and disappeared.

In an instant, David fell Into a trance-like state, and unknown information started to flood his mind.

When his mind finally cleared, David was covered in sweat.

"Purple Thunder Technique."

"So, this is a cultivation technique. It's so wondrous…"

David thought to himself, the first level of the technique generated a purple thunder in his body.

The purple thunder with the passage of time would nourish his body and strengthen it.

And of course, it would also allow him to absorb Mana from the surroundings.

David was very excited, he had finally gotten his hands on a cultivation technique.

However, when he tried to remender the technique he couldn't.

"Quit daydreaming young man and prepare yourself for your first mandatory mission."

The voice of Elder Mike brought him out of his daydreams.

David shook his head, calmed himself down and nodded.

As Elder Mike said, he will have to do at least one mission mandatorily. David had no problem with the mission and he was going to be paid as well.

David bowed in the direction of Elder Mike and left.

"And one more thing, don't forget to collect your monthly allowance and necessary items from the reception desk."

David heard the voice of the Elder from behind him and nodded in acknowledgement.

So he just walked directly toward the reception desk.

The girl didn't treat him like last time and smiled while looking at him.

"Congratulations! Junior brother."

"You can call me senior sister Jessica from now on."

David was stunned by her behavior. He only nodded at her words and didn't say anything else.

"And here is your storage ring."

Jessica didn't seem to care about David's reaction. Following her words, she threw a ring in the direction of David.

David caught the ring and looked at the ring in confusion.

He had just heard a rumor about it now he was seeing the real deal.

Senior sister Jessica seemed to have understood Dawn's thought and smiled mysteriously before speaking.

"The news is five years old, don't worry about it."

Indeed, it was to be expected.

"This ring will be used as the main channel of communication and also as your identification badge, so please take care of it."

David thanked her and took his leave. He couldn't wait to reach his home and began cultivating.

At night.

David was sitting inside his room, in a cross-legged position. He followed the instructions and tried to feel the mana present in the atmosphere.

He wasn't very optimistic. According to the instructions. If your talent was average, it might take up to one month to feel the mana.

However, to his shock as soon he tried it he felt a gentle current of mana rushing toward his head.

David was stunned. He didn't know how to react.

Even the most talented people took at least one day before they were able to feel the mana in the atmosphere. However, he succeeded as soon as he tried it.

David found the situation to be unbelievable. He had to pinch his cheeks to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

Only after that he felt a slight pain, that he realized he wasnt in a dream.

He had managed to succeed in his first try.

When David was in a shock, the mana continued to flow inside his body as if a black hole was inside him.

Unknown to David, a strange scene was happening inside his head or to be more specific in his spiritual sea.
