Chapter 74
74 mysterious stone pillar
After the deaths of the four, Wang went back home despite discovering another group of aliens several kilometers away.
He could kill them easily but did not bother himself to do so.
It lost meaning but still decided to take everything from them.
By the time he left, the group realized their storage devices were gone.
He did this intentionally when the elder Li showed the unique tiny stone pillar with inscriptions. He decided to keep looking for more unique items and his alien is a good source.
For instance, the metal scrap that allowed h and his wife to improve compression of true meaning.
This stone pillar was also radiating some feeling as though true meanings were attached to it.
Opportunities that bring themselves to the door are not worth refusing.
He would use this system from now on, just plundering from aliens could still allow more to come without worrying about their life, but eventually, they would stop bringing treasures.
.....
Thinking of this he felt some headache.
But the stone pillar in the form of a stick captured his attention from the very beginning.
After sorting out some issues at home he plans to study them thoroughly.
After he appeared stealthily he found Fengxi had already started playing around so was relieved. But he still had to focus on the meals before anything else, his appetite had increased again.
Body improvement was slight but still, it allowed him to continue improving. His appetite thus far has exceeded what it was a few months back.
He has also infected his family with this culture of having the best dishes regularly.
Standing in front of the huge wooden grill, he started to play around with the stone pillar he had pulled from the storage device.
The inscriptions gave him a grand feeling but still, he couldn’t grasp what they mean with the help of the panel.
He immediately realized it might indeed just be like true meanings, the panel was useless when it came to such things.
The world had to be understood by him, he had a feeling it was going to be troublesome taking the next step after true meaning reached completion.
This is probably the same reason he had developed the urge to collect many unique treasures, perhaps a way forward could emerge from it.
‘The more I observe this stone pillar the more complex it seems. This is indeed an opportunity for me. No rush, after everything is properly managed around here I can temporarily retreat to the forest to check it out properly.’
Wang had already made up his mind, after all, he had to take care of their daughter while Ruruo spend her time cultivating.
At the same time, considering Wang and Ruruo still maintained their youthful appearance due to their cultivation, their daughter seemed balanced about her situation.
Wang was already looking towards that treasure in the forest becoming reader. At that time it could help him a lot. Even Fengxi will be a big beneficiary.
But through his perception, it was still yet time despite setting a formation around it using thousands of energy stones he got from alien cultivators he killed.
Pushing the thoughts aside he collected all the pieces of dragon barbecue from the grill still dripping with some oils and aroma flowing.
setting a portion aside he carried the test in the storage device as he went to the rear end of the medical garden.
He already confirmed his daughter was busy bullying the huge cow.
sitting cross-legged however he still let his perception go even beyond the village to avoid unexpected situations.
sitting there the stone pillar was on his knees and he couldn’t feel its weight at all.
Compared to his current strength, it seemed very insignificant yet he couldn’t break through yet.
That time he was fighting with the four individuals in his dimensional domain, he didn’t exchange blows because he wanted to try out the new technique that he had failed to complete.
The truth is the pressure on his body and soul attempting to create a world-level technique without reaching the realm, is not even as great as the one he faces.
He was not attempting that rather, he wanted to convert an entire world into a technique.
His body had yet to reach the threshold that could allow him to break through.
Just like Ruruo, though she has yet to take her physique to the level of a world master, she would naturally experience metamorphosis and even change in life level once she broke through.
This situation is also the standard by which things are done, but Wang has a very exaggerated foundation of the body. Thus as the source, the body should be capable of withstanding it.
He has to reach the almost same level as a world master before he could attempt to create the technique and then breakthrough.
That would be very beneficial to his soul and comprehension ability tempering.
Cultivators usually know this fact but how could it be easy to achieve. He has decided to go the furthest he could before taking the next step.
In such a way, others end up wasting their potential and lament on their poor talent and comprehension when they were clearly to blame for their situation.
The moment he set his eyes on the pillar he thought for a while before sending his consciousness inside the pillar.
Surprisingly, he could only feel darkness engulf his consciousness without any benefits.
The state was very scary since his consciousness was feeling some chilling feeling and absolute darkness was very creepy making him uneasy.
At the same moment, he started to think of any benefits of this but couldn’t.
Reaching this point he frowned before pushing his true meanings into the pillar without thinking much, unexpectedly he felt its weight rapidly increase until he was unable to hold on stopping immediately.
‘what was that, true meaning got this thing to react and that weight was just too much for me to handle. How about we try when it’s on the ground.’ as he thought of this he released it onto the ground.
Then his true meaning was being used in the stone pillar and the most shocking thing was he could see the void around starting to distort even scaring the hell out of him.
He had never seen such a situation, at this moment he was certain this thing was some treasure on another level. Even without other purposes, it could be used as a weapon to cause chaos.
just infusing true meaning almost the void collapsed, what if he did not stop. Even though his heart was accelerating, he remained rational.
The stone pillar was not something he could control at his current level at all.
But he started to develop doubts about many things.
For instance, the stone pillar seemed somehow inconsistent with the weapons he has ever gotten from all cultivators he met.
Moreover, the metal scrap had the same feeling as though it belonged to some different place.
But he couldn’t visit the strongest organizations in the universe yet to find out more.
He would have to wait until his level of strength was enough to allow the to give him some face.
‘Let’s put aside everything for now about the origin of these things. If I could manage to get some insights into the stone pillar perhaps my body could also become exaggerated to cause void cracks.’ as he thought of that scene he turned his eyes to the small symbols on the stone pillar, the size of a stick.
‘I’m currently too weak but with this pillar, I just have to copy the patterns on the stone pillars and try transferring them to other objects to test his conjecture. In case it works, he could have another section of thunder body art combined with this new way to achieve an ultimate state.’
This process of copying however could still be used to temper his spirit.
He has a feeling it would require a long time to grasp the competitive unique characters. let alone grasp, copying them would have harsh requirements on the spirit.
‘No rush, if the body is to ascend to an even higher level these characters and diagrams are important. Just copying and pasting them is okay and in the future, we can have enough time to focus on their in-depth meaning. Trying to understand them is unrealistic.’
‘This indeed makes things interesting, I wonder if my body could develop the same characters on it, and could it distort space. well, will know when we try it on other things. There is no rush, now the most important thing is to have that treasure in the forest develop faster. In that way my body should be closer to attaining world master level.’ he was very expectant of the changes that could take place at that time.
At that time, perhaps he could just ignore attacks from those in the same realm. But his ambition was big enough, how could that satisfy him at all.
Most people could be very happy with such an achievement but Wang was very wary especially after realizing the existence of ancient texts, an anomaly.
