“HUGG!!” It looked as if Yìshí was having a nightmare
“Yìshí!! Wake up!!” Marise shouted at the sleeping child.
“Haa!!!” He jumped ‘frightened’!
“Yìshí are you all right?!” Marise asked worriedly.
“Yea, I just have a weird dream…” ‘The heck just happen?!’
Marise cheeked Yìshí for a good while before she could calm down.
“*SIGH* Well, since you are okay now, dress up and come to the living room~~” Saying that she go out of the room…
“Why would I dream that”…Filler
‘Wait! What?!?!’ Reading inside his mind he found something strange…
“F-filler…” His mind suffered a shock!
…
‘Shit! I feel that sometimes life is more like a joke!!’ His face was filled with black lines.
He was curious about what have just happened…
He started looking inside his mind more detailedly.
“…Why is my dream written here?...” This only incremented the amount of black lines!
“*SIGH* …Well it doesn’t matter…Probably…” He sighed and started walking towards the living room.
----------------------------------------
“Happy birthday!” Marise was alone in the living room… It was lonely for a birthday party…
“Where… are the others?” Yìshí already know the answer…
“W-well since you have 5 years… You will start training with the girls!!” She looked ‘happy’.
*SIGH* Yìshí sighed inside.
Since he have a relatively ‘Weak’ body, almost everyone lost hope in him and started to distance themselves from Yìshí and Marise…
They thinked that Yìshí was weaker that the girls because of his petite build.
In reality Yìshí is stronger that what he seems, he is stronger than the vast majority of kids! And because he can finally to start cultivate, his body will become even stronger!!
‘Well I just have to astonish everyone… And then everything will be fine! Right?'…
‘…I don’t like those dots…’
“Well… Surely it doesn’t matter!” He said in a low voice.
“You will have your first class on the afternoon!” Marise looked nervous.
‘*PUFF* This will be easy!’ That’s what he initially thought.
‘…Well…Shit…’ He almost swore when he read that.
----------------------------------------
…
In a building inside the dojo there were several girls of around 12-14 ages old warming up for training.
In front of them was a woman with short blue hair.
“Today we will have a new disciple with us!” The woman shout.
Even though everyone in the dojo know him, she still do the presentation because of tradition.
“My name is Yìshí, pleased to meet you!!” He greeted at them.
“”“…””” nobody greeted back.
‘It looks that their mothers tell them that they should not talk to me…’ sighing inside he started to warm up.
“…” He stayed silent, waiting for the training to begin.
“Well, let’s start with some yoga!!” She didn’t spare a glance at Yìshí, and directly started the training.
“Wait! What should I do?” He tried to call for the coach.
“Just do what the ‘girls’ do!” She replied mockingly.
“O-ok” He didn’t think that everyone would treat him like this.
“Well let’s start with something easy!” The coach shouted.
“Mountain Pose!” everyone straightened up.
Yìshí then started to imitate them ‘Well for now is easy…’
“Now do Warrior I Pose!” They do a steep with their left foot and turned their right foot out to the right.
Then they slowly raised the hands up.
He precisely made every move exactly like them ‘Well this is still pretty easy…’
They just stayed like this for a few minutes.
“Mountain Pose!” Suddenly the coach shouted again.
“Warrior II Pose” They do the same move that with Warrior I Pose but with the hands stretched.
“…” Yìshí just stayed silent while he was doing all of this.
…
A few dozen of minutes have already passed while they were doing some different types of exercises…
In all this while nobody have spared a single glance at Yìshí…
“Well we have finished the warm up!”…
‘Well let’s see what is next!’ Yìshí was a little sore.
“Big Toe Pose” Keeping their legs completely straight, they bend forward touching their toes with their fingers.
‘Ok! I can still do this…’ He felt that it started to be more difficult to do each of the moves.
…
“Revolved Side Angle Pose”…
“…” Yìshí was dying!
‘Shit!! This should be a torture!!!’ He could continue without problems… If his body let him…
‘How can they do it so easily?!?!’ He looked at the girls that were doing it without a problem!!
“Ok. Last exercise of the day!” The coach shouted full of energy.
“Standing Split”…
‘…What…’ He didn’t know what he should do…
‘These girls are cultivators or what!…’ He felt defeated…well, he would do if he didn’t have just 5 years of age…
“Shit” He said in a low voice.
‘Anymore would do harm to my body!’ He was over exhausted.
He tried with all his might to make his body surpass the limit without repercussions!
His eyes started to flash!
He felt strength coming to his body again!!
‘This feels great!’ He didn’t notice all of this!
‘I did notice!’…
But just as he was about to do the final exercise…
“Coach! Yìshí have fainted!!” Finally someone notice him…
As the light coming from his eyes was pretty low, it make it seems like he have white eyes!
They thinked that it was because he have fainted!
“*HUMP* I knew he wouldn’t manage to do even half of the exercises!” The coach thinked that he have fainted a long time ago.
‘Wait WHAT!?!?’ He was startled! He didn’t know why they said that!
It still didn’t stop him, though! He would do the exercise!
“Waaa!!! He finished the last one, and he was already fainted!!!!” They were frightened.
----------------------------------------
...
...
Even after this event nobody approached Yìshí or Marise.
‘Looks that there is another reason…’ He knows that if only his ‘imminent’ expulsion of the clan, because of his petite build. Was the ting making them stay far away from him, the last day should be sufficient to make them approach, even a little bit.
‘The ‘Hag’ should have something to do with this…’
“Well…I think I should ponder about the happenings of the day…”
Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.
‘First…’ He started reading inside his mind.
“What the heck are those exercises?!”
‘Second and more importantly…’ He reached the important point.
‘I can finally start to cultivate!... But I need a place that nobody can ever interrupt me…’
----------------------------------------
...
It finally become night!
‘Well… better than nothing!’ He hided inside his bed!
‘Then how can I start to cultivate?’
He have so much chooses of how to start!...Well…It’s also because he never cultivated a ‘Complete’ cultivation manual!!
‘…’ Black lines appeared in his forehead.
After his awakening in his previous life, alongside with the martial art, he obtained something odd…Even more odd that a martial art for cultivators!
It is a ‘strange’ [Secondary cultivation manual], it is something that he; even after searching for a lot of worlds; never really heard of a thing like this.
‘It’s not strange or odd…It’s just that… because of traditions they never really think about the possibility…’ he started to think in the stupidity of the cultivators.
‘Basically is having another cultivation manual without repercussions! The energy in the body can be separated in several recipients, making one able to cultivate various Cultivation manuals!’
‘Now that I think about it…I really never used a ‘complete’ cultivation manual…Because of the useless Cultivation manuals in my home world, I prefer to make a cultivation manual of my own…’
‘But when I get the [Secondary cultivation manual], I just keep saying to myself that I should wait for a more powerful cultivation manual…’ He started to get depressed!
‘W-well…It doesn’t matter!’ He forget all distractions and started to think about what to do.
‘…Should I start like in my previous life? Or try something new?...’
‘I have some memories of the powerhouses so… what can I do with them?!’
‘Let’s see…’ He started to remember parts of the life of the powerhouses.

He managed to create a Cultivation way that fused the Concepts in his being! This way he ‘Evolved’ spiritually!

----------------------------------------
The Cultivation of these two are for breaking the limits of the human body! One focused on Body cultivation methods and other focused on QI cultivation methods!
Thanks to the evolution of their bodies, when their sons were born they unlocked an unbelievable talent!
But the two committed the same mistake! They reached a point when breaking their limits trough the same way would be a waste of time! So they started a war in hopes of getting each other Cultivation manuals! The two already know that this would happen the moment their cultivation started to stop…
Even though the cultivation of various cultivation methods is normally impossible, if one creates a new cultivation method combining the two of these, or just modifies his current cultivation method… one can cultivate QI and Body at the same time! …Ignoring the enormous amount of increase of resources needed to do this…
----------------------------------------
‘Heck! After remembering the important parts it even put it in a list!’ He was overjoyed!
‘This will be easier to choose that I tough!’
…He decided to ignore some of the skills and abilities that he didn’t find important…As an example: ‘Useless’ Cultivation manuals, some daily life skills, and a ‘great’ bunch of other ‘minor’ things…After all there where a lot of things he didn’t care at the moment…Even if there were from the most powerful beings in his old world…
…After a few minutes…
“…”
‘Well…I don’t have the materials nor the place for practice any of their cultivation manuals… heck! Even secret arts are impossible without a basic level of cultivation!…’ He didn’t appear depressed.
‘I think that…I secretly wanted this…’ He is a masochist…
‘You Fucker!!!’ He do a sudden move inside his bed!
*POW!* He suddenly hit his head on the wall!
“Yìshí are you okay!” Marise shouted worriedly.
“I’m okay!”…
‘Ok! Then I can start to cultivate my Amazing [anyway cultivation method]!!!…Hum~…Maybe this thing called [Spiritual guide] would work?...’ He started to shake his head at the last thought.
‘What am I thinking?! Both secret and forbidden arts needs at least some cultivation level’
‘Then it’s decided! I shall cultivate… The amazing [anyway cultivation method]! …And then I will see what I do next…’
The [anyway cultivation method] is a cultivation method using the basics of QI and Body cultivations methods, created to match with the [Secondary cultivation manual] for the compatibility with all types of cultivation methods!
----------------------------------------
...
When he was sure that, there was nobody that could hear or see him. He, inside his bed, slowly seated and put a cross-legged posture…He was starting the [anyway cultivation method]…
“Let’s start!” He speak softly. He started to move his hands, pressing the acupoints of his body one by one and slowly closing the distance between his hands. ‘This will be much easier when I get some more control over Qi… I will just have to circulate my QI to activate the Cultivation method… But for now, I will have to do it by hand…’
The moment his hands touched, a dim light started flowing through his body, it was like a river that flows through a mountain!
‘*SIGH* It looks that there is almost the same QI that in a low-end worl---…’ He suddenly felt a sharp increase on the speed of the absorption of the QI! And it was rapidly increasing! He even started to feel pain!!
“Shit!”…‘This is almost like a Medium-Low world!!’… He needed to slow the speed on the absorption of the QI!!.
‘What was that?!’ He was astonished!
‘…Well…Better for me! If this world only have so little QI, I would need a lot of time to reach even the first level of cultivation…’
‘With my cultivation method I should ‘Maybe’ ….reach a level high enough to maintain my breakthroughs…’
‘But…Without materials I can’t ‘Completely’ use any cultivation method…And the materials are costly…But… That’s only if there are any materials that I can use, in this world…’ He was troubled.
‘*SIGH* Lets cultivate for a while and tomorrow I will decide what I should do…’
----------------------------------------
…The next day!
Yìshí was sleeping like a rock!
“Yìshí wake up~” Marise shaked Yìshí softly.
“*YAWN~~* What is it~” Yìshí was startled, it was only 5:30 am.
“You have school!” Said Marise ‘excitedly’.
“Wait…What?!” He didn’t know what was that!
“Sorry~ I forget to tell you~” She said nonchalantly.
...
“…What is school?” He asked…Even though…He could swear that, he have already heard something like that…
----------------------------------------
...
...
“Well~ since your son learn so fast~ we will put him with all the other girls~ surely he will catch to them~” Said mockingly an elderly woman.
“…O-ok…” Marise was extremely depressed…
Because nobody cared about him, he only could go to the high school!
‘How would a kid of 5 years manage to learn something in high school?’
He was outside a classroom waiting to the teacher to arrive…
Yìshí could only go to high school because, there was no girl in any lesser grade than this…and nobody would be interested to teach only to Yìshí…So he didn’t have any other choice!
Marice would have applied as a teacher but… Because she doesn’t have any papers saying that she is a teacher, they didn’t leave her to even try…
Not like Yìshí would care about this… ‘…I, don’t know what to feel…’...
‘Shit! I didn’t think there would be something like this!’ He was completely baffled.
‘I know that only low-end worlds have things like this! And only ‘Nobles’ goes there!’
‘With the amount of QI in this world I’m sure they could have advanced to a medium world…If I were in my universe…’ The small differences of the Qi was enough to tell him that, he was in an unknown place to him, but he didn’t think that it could be so different.
“Well…I think that maybe this will be fun~?” He tried to forget all of his worries, and started to think positively!
----------------------------------------
…A while later the teacher finally arrived...
Yìshí was sitting on a chair at the back of the classroom… the teacher didn’t even introduce him… He just entered and go to the only chair left…he jumped a little to get seated…
‘This starts to get depressing…and repetitive…’ He was annoyed.
“Well class looks that everyone is present! Ok, open your books at page 78…” The teacher started her class.
“…” Yìshí just stayed silent, looking at a thick book in front of him.
He opened the book and started to read from page 1.
‘…At least I can finally know how this world works…Let’s see what we have here…’
“Biology, Math, Etic, History, Art…Computing??” He didn’t know what, the last one was!
‘Let’s read from beginning to end first!’
*KA~* He was reading at a very fast speed! He just needed to take a good look at the page and that’s all!
After a while of reading, he closed the book.
His eyes started to shine! He was enlighten in many tings! He decided to study more about this world!
‘This High School ting is pretty good! The only drawback is that…this is boring!...’Maybe’ higher grades would be fun… No! I am sure that it is fun! It can even have more useful information of this world! And maybe I can find something about materials for the cultivation manuals!’
“Remember to study for tomorrow exam!” The teacher suddenly shouted.
“Why?!?!” The girls were depressed for this fact.
*SIGH* Yìshí was bored, he already finished the book so there was nothing he could do.
‘I don’t quite get the computing ting…’ He was somewhat confused.
*YAWN* “…I will just wait for that class…” He lay the book on the chair and started to sleep with his eyes open!
----------------------------------------
…A while later…
“Yay! The final class of the day!” The girls were excited to go home.
“Well…Let’s go to computer class…” Everyone stand up and stretched a little before walking out of the classroom.
‘…’ Yìshí was depressed! Nobody take a glance at him…
He just stand up and started to follow the girls...
…
“Whoa~” He followed the girls to a room full of metal boxes.
‘These are computers?’ He was curious. He looked at every corner of the room.
“Let’s watch some anime before the teacher gets here!” Some girls were relaxing waiting for the teacher to come.
…
*BOOM* The sound of an explosion was heard from the direction of the girls!
“What?!” He turned serious and looked at the direction of the sound! He was prepared to fight with all his might!!
Thankfully!…Or not… nobody pay attention to his shout…
‘Wait…WHAT?!’ He was baffled by the scene!
“You will never succeed!!” A youth was fighting a giant robot!
Well…almost… “Yea! Beat him!” The girls were looking at a glass, shouting excitedly!!
Realizing what was happening, he just stayed petrified!
“This can’t be real…” He was shouting stars from his eyes!
…
…
…Yìshí’s life went like this for around 7 more years…
