'1st and 2nd, you are awake. Help us deal with this situation. Said the 3rd book urgently asking 1st and 2nd book for help.'

'Let the kid cultivate. 'Said the 2nd book to the 3rd and 4th book.

'Yes, it is the only way, for the yearly waves are coming.'

Said the 2nd book to Sung Kang as a warning.

“What are you talking about? What’s a “wave”?

Asked Sung Kang to the floating 2nd book.

'Waves are a yearly phenomenon at Ming’s Forest, the 38 moons align to form as one and become “Asura’s eye”. Once the alignment is complete, the beast’s instincts take over making them mad and will come out of this forest in droves killing anything and everything in its path. The people of Murim have successfully defended humanity from the waves by building a wall that surrounds the Ming Forest. They named this massive wall after the 1st king “Jinrogun“to honor him who built this massive wall and protected his people from the waves and the elements beyond it.' Said the 2nd book calmly.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

“So, you’re telling me, the animals outside become berserk yearly and it’s heading straight here?”

Yes, that’s the situation. Said the 2nd book indifferently.

'You need to get stronger or else you’re just waiting meat here.'

Said the 1st book warily.

“Ok. Ok. Fine. I get it already, how do I cultivate?”

'Cultivation is a method to awaken a person’s hidden potential.'

'Qi is the source of all living things, it exists everywhere.'

'One must keep in mind the foundations of Qi to start cultivation.'

'You will start with the foundation of the flower, awakening Qi is a simple task but focusing on its foundation will require you to use your imagination and it will expand the vessel for your soul power. If you get what I’m saying we must begin immediately so that you won’t get shit on by what’s coming.; Said the 2nd book jokingly.

“Where do I start? Is there like a martial manual or something here or is there another floating book in this apartment but you’re not telling me.” Said Sung Kang in a calm manner.

'You know your stuff boy. As a matter of fact, after you gather Qi we’ll be giving you each of our martial art techniques that are only exclusive to us books.' Said the 3rd book respecting the profound knowledge Sung Kang has.

“Haha. Right.” Said Sung Kang in a sarcastic matter.

[I kind of expected this to happen since I read so many comics and manga in my childhood but I won’t tell them that.]

'Right then, let us start with gathering qi.' Said the 1st book.

Sung Kang’s cultivation has begun.
