(Note: 100 spiritual energies can be converted into 1 spiritual source. The speed at which spiritual energy converts to spiritual sources depends on the player's talent.)
"Amazing! I just found out that cultivation can be this easy." Qin Tian smiled happily as he looked at his stats.
"And this power, I didn't expect a single spiritual source to produce such power." Qin Tian could feel his strength becoming extremely strong after he broke through to the realm of the Spiritual Apprentice.
He then stood up and released his fists into the air.
Busssss....
His fist which was an iron dragon fist caused the air to tremble as it slammed into the air.
In reality, the iron dragon fist technique wasn't that powerful, but because of the Primordial God Body, the strength of that technique had become on par with a top tier technique.
"Mm." He then turned his attention to the data on his body that was in the real world.
According to the data, there had suddenly been an unknown change in his body.
"What's going on, not even the most advanced capsule can determine what it is?" Qin Tian started to be confused.
"I have to get out first." Qin Tian immediately decided to get out of that world.
The button to exit that world was so clearly displayed on the virtual screen that Qin Tian never worried that he would be trapped forever in that world.
He then pressed the button. A warning appeared right after he pressed the button.
(Warning: Before you leave the game, please ensure the safety of your reincarnated body. When you leave the game, your body in this game will lose consciousness. If someone kills your body, you will be considered dead and your account will disappear.)

'.....' Qin Tian
"I think rules like this prove that this world really is the real world. Otherwise, how could a game establish such rules." Qin Tian shook his head.
"I don't know if this place is really safe, but I have to get out first."
Qin Tian pressed the exit button once again.
After which, he heard a countdown sound.

0
When the count reached 0, his original body immediately regained consciousness.
"Oh my goddess." He didn't have time to think.
When he returned to his original body, he immediately jumped up in surprise.
It was something he didn't even expect.
It turned out that the strange change in his body was due to a spiritual energy suddenly appearing in his body. Even though it was only one spiritual energy, it was still very surprising because during his 17 years on earth, he had never once found the existence of spiritual energy.
Now he can even activate his spiritual sense and see the spiritual world that is in his stomach.
"How could this be, how could this be."
Even if the Sixteen Heaven Game really sent him to the sixteen heavens, his two bodies were still two different objects from each other. Of course, because they came from the same soul, the two bodies could still share strength with each other.
However, unless there was a certain path, there was no way the spiritual energy in his body that was in the sixteen heavens could be transferred to his body that was on earth.
"This is bad, what if this also happened to the others." Qin Tian started to worry.

He gained one spiritual energy when his body in sixteen heavens managed to condense a single spiritual source.
From that, he could easily deduce that the one spiritual source he had in the sixteen heavens would cause his body on earth to receive one spiritual energy.
One spiritual energy might be almost meaningless, but if the guess was right, it would only be a matter of time before one could gather a hundred spiritual energies and become a Spiritual Apprentice.
If that really happened, the earth would probably become a cultivation world as well.
Although Qin Tian always hoped that the earth had spiritual energy, but after living 17 years on earth, he actually prefers an earth without spiritual energy. Especially after he was sure that the sixteen heavens in the game Sixteen Heaven were real, he was even more unwilling to see earth become a cultivation world.
"I have to check on Angela." Qin Tian immediately thought of Angela.
He then came out of the capsule, after which, he immediately ran towards Angela's room.
While he was running, he sent a message to Angela via his smartphone.
"Have you become a Spiritual Apprentice?"
"Yes." Angela answered. "Luckily I have a heavenly body. You know, I see a lot of other players struggling just to become Spiritual Apprentices."
"Is there something?" She then asked.
"Can you get out of there for a moment, there's something I want to see from you." He had already entered Angela's room when he sent the message.
And now he was standing beside Angela's capsule.
Angela no longer replied to his messages, but moments later, Angela's capsule finally opened.
The blonde haired woman was wearing only a tight tank top and shorts as she lay inside the capsule.
In terms of beauty, Angela was definitely the prettiest of the three women in the villa. In reality, even on the entire planet earth Qin Tian felt like he had never seen a woman more beautiful than Angela.
Even though he had seen many beauties in his past, he still had to take a deep breath to calm himself down when he saw the current Angela.
Without noticing Angela's reaction, he then directed his palm towards Angela's stomach. The woman's stomach opened slightly because her clothes were too small, and Qin Tian then touched it directly to her stomach.
After that, he used his spiritual sense to look inside Angela's stomach.
"Mmm, there's nothing there."

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
