Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

Chapter 5: Can You Do That?!

"What about the way of Qi and Mana?! Please enlighten this little one!"

Lee Shen was sitting on the ground. His fist clenched, face excited, and sparkling eyes with an ear-to-ear smile. Dnekewy understood what he was asking about.

*ahem*

"Even if one had Qi affinity, cultivation is only possible if he/she is willing to undergo awakening. It is a painful process. Weak-willed cannot complete this trial. Your body acquires an overall change. Repulsion to Mana and Mana related objects is the most noticeable one".

"There are 20 realms in Qi cultivation. As I said, the difficulty becomes exponential within a few realms. Those 20 realms are:-

1. Qi Sensing

2. Body Strengthening

3. Foundation Building

4. Qi Accumulation

5. Core Formation

6. Elemental Binding

7. Nascent Soul

8. Soul Condensation

9. Soul Transformation

11. Immortal Master

12. Immortal Grandmaster

13. Qi Monarch Immortal

14. Qi Emperor Immortal

15. Prime Qi Immortal

16. Human Saint

17. Heaven Saint

18. Essence Saint

19. Planet Lord

20. Dimension Sovereign

Except for the last five, all realms have 1 - 9 sub-stages. Realms from 1 to 5 belong to Mortal class. Soul class consists of realms 6 to 10. The Immortal class spans from realms 11 to 15. The Heavenly Thunder Tribulation starts with stepping into this class and occurs at every major realm transition. Realms 16 to 20 belonging to the God class don't have any further sub-stages. To compensate this, Heavenly Thunder Tribulation is accompanied with the Heavenly Army of Law of Destruction. You will have to fight this army made up of Law of Destruction while countering Heavenly Thunder Tribulation".

"Questions?!"

"Some are self-explanatory. But what are these Elemental Binding, Soul condensation, etc?!" (Lee)

"Soul itself is weak. So an element is used to empower the soul. The element is not your choice, but an involuntary decision of your soul essence. Without an elemental binding, a nascent soul cannot be condensed. Elements range from fire, water, wind, void, time, space, ice, lightning.and in some cases, emotions like rage, serenity, envy, etc.

The soul's progression is a very long and delicate process. One should not hurry in this process. The slightest carelessness can cause soul to self-destruct. Thus, Condensation, Transformation and Manifestation are seperated into three whole realms. Soul becomes an important factor in future cultivation. A flawless complete soul is your best ally.

After Nascent Soul is formed, it has to be condensed so that the soul essence and elemental essence can cluster together inside you. For each sub-stage, the respective amount of the essence gets condensed.

At Soul Transformation, the completely condensed essences merge inside you. At each minor breakthrough, an incomplete, but evolved and powerful form will be visible to you. At this stage, your Qi will have a faint trace of your element.

Upon reaching Soul Manifestation, you can partially imbue your soul into objects and weapons to create a bond. Such weapons can increase your elemental affinity. Choosing the correct tool is essential. It is more powerful than simple Qi strengthening of weapons. When Manifestation reaches sufficient level, the weapon can be remotely controlled using Soul Imprint.

This information is enough for you at the moment. I will explain as your journey goes forward!"

"Dnekewy, you did mention about this 284th dimension and 3rd dimension. What are they exactly?" (Lee)

"All dimensions, 999 to be exact, are the copies of the Origin dimension which is the zeroth one. Origin dimension doesn't have any living beings there. But only matter and energy in complete chaos. This matter and energy are copied 999 times to form the 999 dimensions. But how each dimension further evolved is completely serendipitous. Dimensions form a 'will' of their own to govern its the laws."

"How do you know all these?!" (Lee)

"When one becomes the Dimension Sovereign, the person is one with the Will of Dimension and these mysteries are unraveled before them. Fortunately, no one had succeeded me in that feat. If so, then I would have had to transfer the control to the latest one".

"Why are there none-" (Lee)

"To become Dimension Sovereign, you need immense luck beside skills and training. Besides, The Heavenly Army of Law of Destruction is too f**king horrible to counter! I saw death at my doorstep while facing them".

Lee Shen went to a deep-thought state hearing this. His hand was supporting his chin, while sitting on the ground cross-legged. A silence befell on them for a few minutes. As if reaching a conclusion, Lee Shen stood up, cupped his hands and said-

"So, can you be my guide and help me achieve the peak of cultivation? You have done it once, so leading one is easy, isn't it?!" (Lee)

"It is not. If two souls reside in one body with or without consent, either mine will devour your or your's will consume mine during Soul Condensation. Thus it is impossible. My soul has reached a very higher state, so mere objects cannot contain me.

But there is a memory of your's which gives an account of two consciousness residing in one body. You may not remember, let me just unlock it for you".

Dnekewy become smoke and went into Lee Shen's head. A few memories that looked familiar, started to surface. In it, a PC was in front of him with a popular manga in screen. The protagonist of the story was blessed with a system. He grows in his strength and fame using the system. He is promptly notified of danger and achievements. The memory started to fade and Lee Shen returned to reality.

Dnekewy stood before him waiting for a response. Lee Shen had a mixed expression when he spoke.

"Can you do that?! Can you transform into a system that can guide me?!" (Lee)
