Infinite Star - Chapter 51
“It’s quite possible.” The Daily System informed Zayn.
“What do you mean? Infinite Star already-”
“The host’s judgment is clouded. The host is wrong in thinking that the Infinite Star is the only guidance for the host. The Daily System also provides guidance.
It’s very likely that solely with the help of the Infinite Star it would take the host around 20 years. And it’s also very likely that solely with the help of the Daily System it would take the host around 20 years.
But if you combine the guidance from the Infinite Star and the help of the Daily System, the 10 years mark wouldn’t seem that unrealistically.
Throughout the host’s journey, many features of the Daily System will be unlocked and also many abilities from the Infinite Star, further helping the host’s growth.
In the end, it still relies on the host. If the host isn’t willing to put in the work, then even the best guidance would be useless. The host has to put in all he has if he wants to achieve the first Main Quest. The normal Quests will always work as a guidance, what the host has to do to get one step closer. Sometimes tempering the mind, sometimes growing in strength, and so on.”
The Daily System’s explanation calmed Zayn down and also sparked a small fire in Zayn. He knew he had to do that, there was no other way. He regained his hope for the future.
“The Daily System doesn’t tolerate weaklings. The Daily System’s main objective is to summon and raise powerful cultivators. For those Summons unfit for the objective, the Daily System would eradicate them.”
“…” Zayn’s euphoria was momentarily stopped. But the knowledge that the Main Quest was possible, instantly made Zayn laugh the remark off.
‘…My top priority is to not die through the Quest… About my wish… I’ve got to think about it… The only memories I have left are about Harry…’
Zayn began to think about the Main Quest and the possible wish, as he continued to walk towards the second cultivation side.
.
Zayn’s navigation skill rose in the duration during his stay in the Python Beast Forest. He traveled to the second cultivation side really fast.
As he approached the second cultivation side, Zayn was able to sense the purer Qi there, but somehow it felt really faint.
His sensing got far more accurate than before. He even was able to differentiate the Qi, present in the cultivation side.
To the ordinary pure Qi from the cultivation side, Zayn was also able to sense a different but familiar Qi.
This discovery astounded Zayn.
“You’re able to use your Spirit Sense now. Even without learning how to efficiently use it, it will still improve your current senses.”
“So this is the Spirit Sense? Infinite Star teach me the method to use it!”
“Patience, kid. We’re right in front of the cultivation side, how about we do one thing after the other.”
“Yeah… You’re right.”
Zayn walked up to the second cultivation side. It was really similar to the first cultivation side. An onsen-like area. The only thing special at the cultivation side was a person. It was a familiar face, which surprised Zayn.
“Kayn?!?” Zayn voiced out.
Kayn was currently cultivating. He looked pretty lively out there, not like his corpse-looking self. This reminded Zayn back to his fight with Kayn.
As Zayn voiced out Kayn’s name, Kayn instantly opened his eyes.
“You’re here! I was right!” Kayn spoke with emotion and excitement, not with lifeless and boredom.
He seemed to be in his lively state, which he displayed during their fight.
“You were right?” Zayn was confused by Kayn’s remark.
“I heard you were gone, out for training! I thought about it and figured out that the Python Beast Forest was the most likely place. The academy often sent out students to let them train there.
After hearing about your training trip, I was also interested in going out to train. And now we’re here!
How about another fight?”
When Kayn mentioned having another fight, Zayn was surprised.
“Kid, he’s in the 9-Star Body Refinement Realm, now! I was right before, he truly has the Devouring Qi Body.
But it seems to be broken. That’s fascinating! Even though it’s a broken one, it’s grade right now is comparable to a low-level Devouring Qi Body!
This means, that he has to have one of the highest grades of the Devouring Qi Body, either the True Devouring Qi Body or a variant of it.”
“Ehm… Ok?”
“Kid, his Qi Talent is at 100 percent, thanks to the Devouring Qi Body. And the Devouring Qi Body isn’t only limited to that.
Look at his cultivation for an example. He reached the 9-Star Body Refinement Realm. Meaning, he climbed 3-Stars, just like you, but the difference is that his 3-Stars are far harder to achieve than yours and also he didn’t absorb a Star Body.
If he was able to repair his Devouring Qi Body, his cultivation speed would rank as one of the highest in all realms.
His broken Devouring Qi Body could also be a reason for his unusual personality split… This really could be the reason…”
Zayn understood far more after Infinite Star explained about his cultivation speed. This also shocked Zayn. Kayn’s Devouring Qi Body sure was terrifying.
“Kid, he’s far stronger than he was during your previous fight. And also your strength rose astronomically. You should accept his offer. A fight would be best, to show you the results of your short training trip!”
Zayn thought about Kayn’s fighting offer and decided to try it out. There was no backlash to it, so why not?
“All right, Kayn! Let’s fight!”
