《Level system vs Cultivation methods》Chapter 58 : Meeting again
Advertisement
Year 31 of the Human Calendar - West of the Holy Land of Xue - Other side of the wall
I'm back in the surface.
“Linjian?“ ???
“Master?“ ???
And two voices appear behind me.
(They became stronger. I can actually feel some mana covering their skin, even without the appraisal or the Life Detection)
[It seems that things would have worked alone]
(Animal Whisperer)
I spoke to them about the only way my current body can, at the same time that I uncover my face.
“(I am back)“
“You took your time“ Shaolan
“MASTER!!!“ Usain
(Whoa!)
He hugged me while crying.
“I knew *sniff* that no cultivator could defeat you“ Usain
I pat his back.
“(I am happy that you are well)“
“Uhg“ Usain
...
After a while, he released me.
“I am sorry, Linjian“ Shaolan
She looks down.
“I wasn't here in the moment this kingdom needed me the most...“ Shaolan
“(There is nothing to be sorry, Shaolan)“
I answer immediately after.
“(I can see that you were in a hurry)“
Her precious cape is ragged and filled with dirt.
“...“ Shaolan
“(And I am sure they could have held the city lord long enough for you to arrive. I am proud of both of you)“
Under her hat covering her eyes, she smiles.
I use my Earth Knight armor to turn my body in the direction of the center of the Holy Land.
And after I cross the west wall...
“Grandpaa!“ Hikari
Another hug awaits me.
[This will take a while]
......
...
After lots of meetings, I finally reached my destination.
(Maria...)
[Yes?]
(I don't know what it must have been like to be stuck in a room for twenty years, I'm so...)
[Stop it]
(?)
[You don't need to be sorry. As a soul, I can control my perception of time]

(Perception of time?)
[Yes, it is the same thing I do when you go to sleep]
I never thought about that.
[These twenty years were only twenty days for me]
(Twenty days...)
[It may sound like a long time, but Tang made me company so it wasn't that boring]
(...)
[Don't worry about it and do what you came to do]
(Okay)
I kneel in front of the statue of the goddesses of life and peace.
(Ziyun... Xue...)
Everything is thanks to them.
“ThAnks fOr savIng me Again“
The statue shines in the sunlight like every day.
------------------------
Year 32 of the Human Calendar - Holy Land of Xue - In front of the statue of the goddesses of life and peace.
It's been almost a year since I woke up from my long sleep.
That day, while the residents were fighting the city lord army, Shaolan and Usain found the location of the Boundless Baihu city.
But they realized that the arrays on the walls weren't strong as they should be.
That made them run back at full speed in order to protect their homeland.
Interestingly, the next day they had to run back to the city. Together with me and the commanders.
We did not know how much the substitute array core lasts, so we needed to help the people inside that lordless city.
It didn't have the ideal result.
After dropping the lifeless body of the city lord in front of the gates, the reactions were divided.
Commoners followed us without question, after all they lived lives in where they couldn't choose anything. Some of them were happy with idea of living without cultivators.
But the problem was the cultivators.
Only the Bronze rank cultivators joined us, the silver and gold ones choose death before abandoning their cultivation.

Yes, most of them are the enemy. Murderers, kidnapers and senseless monsters.
But the word MOST means that there were SOME people that weren't like that.
Just like Qianxun, some of them are just prisoners of the cultivation world. People chained with invisible chains.
I need to find a better way to do this.
...
“I will come back tomorrow“ Linjian
I stand from my kneeling position.

My body is mostly recovered, so from tomorrow on I will restart my muscle training.
......
...
Today is the first anniversary of the Liberation of the continent.
[LIBERATION OF THE CONTINENT, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
After the last city was cleaned of people, this message appeared to every resident of the Holy Land of Xue.
Some of them gained more experience than others, but everyone did something for this achievement to occur.
This was an event so big that people decided to make it a festive day.
...
In front of the statue of the goddesses of life and peace there is a colorful platform. And on it, Yue appeared.
“To celebrate this happy day we will sing a song, please hear our good wishes addressed to everyone“ Yue

Searcher
I was just like everyone else. At least, I thought so. Everyone grew up in a mansion with servants, trained to be a debutante, had a traveling archeologist for a father, and gave it all up to do whatever the hell they wanted. Right? Well that’s what I did. I was happy. As happy as a single twenty four year old girl can be living in an apartment selling shit online to pay the bills. Not actual shit, that's gross. No, I bought stuff from garage sales, thrift stores, and junk shops, and resold it in my online store. I was pretty good at finding stuff to peddle to my customers. I made rent every month and didn’t have to strip. I’m a bit too chunky to swing around a pole anyway. Life was great! Until two sexy men broke into my apartment and woke me up from the most erotic dream my sexually depraved mind could come up with. One was between my legs, the other was... Oh well, it was a dream and I didn’t even get to finish it. Those bastards! Now I’m supposed to believe my dead father wasn’t an archeologist, but some kind of paranormal agent working for a secret organization called The Guard. My ability to find items for my customers is just a perk inherited from him. And I’m supposed to use my inherited powers to save the world. All while these hunks of man flesh guard me from other paranormals out to get whatever the hell they think I have. A certain body part is dripping with excitement, literally. But my mind is saying “Hell No!”

What happens when a game company strives for total immersion and realism from a VRMMO?Players require food, sleep, personal hygeine, air to breathe and everything else required for life. The up side is that its still a game, Players respawn, can use magic, can basically do anything they want with obvious exceptions like: not going to prison for assassinating a ruling monarch, not that you cant do it only that its very hard to do.In comes our protagonist a university student majoring in the sciences, namely chemistry.His name is Henry Jacobs, 19 years old and a complete loner.A new VRMMO game was annouced and it bragged and boasted about how it would be the first in a new era of VR gaming as it would give the game a total of 100% realism, meaning when you get hit it hurts, when you walk into a dungeon full of zombies it will stink as you'd expect like rottting corpses. This game is titled Outrage: Total Realism. Which was a joke made by the publishers knowing how most people would be either excited or enraged.
