While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Cole's father also known as William Summers lived an ordinary life and was never involved in the world of cultivation. He grew up in Staten Island and when he was very young was in love with a girl in his class, and secretly the girl felt the same about him.

Coincidentally they were always in the same classes and schools, and when William was in high school he mustered enough courage to confess to the girl. After he did so, she also confessed that she felt the same way and they began seeing each other and dating from that moment onwards.

However, in the last year of high school the girl he was in love with, revealed something to him that was very hard for him to believe.

The girl that he was in love with was actually the daughter of the previous Epstein Family head and she was next in line to become the family head despite having an older brother. The way the Epstein Family chose family heads was different to all the other cultivation families.

It was done similar to how the royal family would pass on the throne and would be the descendant of the previous family head that had the purest Epstein Family Bloodline and highest talent grade.

This distinguished those closely related to the family head and the rest of the family and made a clear hierarchy, which was why she was so used to be treated as royalty by everybody in her family.

But William treated her well, but also treated her normally and liked her for who she was without actually knowing about the wealth and power of her family and the position that she was going to inherit.

She had made a deal with her father that she wouldn't have to cultivate seriously or deal with anything to do with the family until she was 18 and on the last year of high school, she needed to tell William everything before she didn't have the chance to do so.

William at first found it hard to believe everything that she told him, but after she showed him her elemental affinity, he was amazed and obviously believed her after witnessing it with his own eyes.

She told him that she had to return to her family, inherit the position as family head and cultivate diligently so that she could keep the power and influence that she had, but that meant that she couldn't see him again.

The only way they could be together was if he became a powerful cultivator or they would have to wait until she had complete control of the family so that she could do as she pleased.

William had never had an easy life and was good at studying and even from a young age was always working multiple side-hustles to contribute to his family and be able to treat himself and the girl that he loved.

Everything was going just like he had dreamed, but after what she revealed to him, his world came crashing down and everything that he had worked towards and hoped for seemed to be out of reach.

"There is no need to worry William. If we were meant to be together it will work out." was the last thing that the love of his life told him before leaving.

She had always chosen to stay near him as she enjoyed being together with him, but if neither of them had enough power to do as they pleased, it was almost impossible for them to publically be together.

Just as William thought there was no hope for him to be together with her and was about to give up, he found a book under his pillow that she had left for him before leaving.

Opening up the book, it showed him different movements and training methods to cultivate externally and different breathing techniques and methods to cultivate internally.

She had never tested his talent grade before, but from a young age she had been drawn to him and although his personality was amazing and his looks quite good, she felt that it was something else that was drawing them to each other.

With that, William secluded himself and climbed his way up in the world using the incredible method that she gave him which was enough for him to cultivate both externally and internally to the Advanced Level.

William was very fast at cultivating and also very perceptive and skilled at battle and soon made a name for himself in Staten Island having conquered multiple gangs and formed many businesses that were making him loads of money.

After he became 25 and had become an Advanced Cultivator both externally and externally and also managed to make a name for himself, William was finally ready to face the one that he loved.

His progress was rapid and it was all because of his single desire to be with her and she had heard of his progress and everything that he had accomplished and every time would feel a warmth in her heart.

Since the Epstein Family would always keep the family head secret and their identity confidential, he was denied the chance to speak with her, but she ordered the family guards to let him see her.

After she had become the family head, her older brother, who was less talented than her at cultivation and also had a less pure bloodline, became the great elder of the Epstein Family and also her advisor.

Becuase of that he was the only one present when she met with William and upon seeing each other, the family head that was usually calm and authoritative embraced the man and hugged him passionately after not being able to see him for 7 years.

"You actually managed to do it," she said as tears of joy streamed down her face.

"Of course, I would do anything for you and this is only the beginning" 

It was a heartwarming reunion but the great elder and her brother watched furiously from the side.
