Chapter 346

346 THE WORLD CORE TOME

“Just how powerful is he?” Li Meng thought. He knew how vast the Misty Ridge was, which meant that the captain literally tore the space up from the river to the entrance and threw him inside. Just how much power was required to do so? What was even more surprising is that he didn’t even move during the whole thing, which meant he used pure energy to do so.

“It felt like world energy to me. Would I be able to do that too if I increased my proficiency in world energy?” Li Meng verified the contents of the book which the captain gave him. It was an old rugged cuboid-shaped object which could only be described as a very old book.

Li Meng tried to open it up but failed. He then began to utilize his physical strength, then body cultivation. He even began to use his Qi to get it to open but failed at the end.

“How would I open it?” That was when he thought of something. There was another kind of energy that he hadn’t tried out. He decides to use world energy within his body and as he guessed, the book popped open. Li Meng found a hidden place and began going through the contents.

“World Core Tome.” That was the name written on top of the book cover. Li Meng understood that the art was related to world energy and its quality was far higher than the energy art which the Keeper gave him. He began going through the arts. It specified how world energy could be cultivated.

A set of breathing exercises were specified along with a proper circulation method to properly regulate the world energy within the body. Li Meng followed the instructions and found his energy flow and control to have improved. He continued to practice for some time and felt that the rate of his growth was higher.

There were even probable practices that could help him regulate the world energy container and his channels. They were far superior to his simple fill and drain routine. He went on and found various methods to practice world energy with the existing energy arts. Li Meng knew from his experiments that it would act as a great catalyst and support. His only fear was that he needs to go to the world border frequently.

He soon found out that world energy could be cultivated even inside the world, but it was equivalent to stealing the world energy of the world you are practicing in.

Hence every time the cultivator undergoes a breakthrough as written in the tome, they would face tribulation from the world. It was similar to what Qi Dominators have to face, but this time the attack would be of the world conscience itself, trying to take back the world energy you have stolen.

.....

The best way to overcome the upcoming tribulation should one practice this art was to go towards the world borders where the influence of the worlds have been weakened significantly and hence would result in a much weaker tribulation. The relative result is also high. But it also comes at its own risk.

The world borders are shared by different worlds and often the other world will also react to the attack of the present world and one might even face multiple tribulations, not from the world where they stole the energy from. This results in an even more powerful tribulation and could result in the death of the cultivator whose world energy would then be dispersed in the world borders.

“This is crude and cruel too. I can’t even escape the tribulation by going out of the world.”

There was also a gradation of the quality and strength of the world energy which could be collected from the worlds. Higher the stage of the world itself stronger would be its world energy. Hence Hell would have stronger energy than the one he was residing in. The resultant tribulation would also be far stronger than this one.

Li Meng decided that he would be practicing at least some levels of the art in his world so that he could get acquainted with the process properly. Only when he would come across a barrier would he proceed to higher worlds to practice his world energy. He continued reading through it and soon enough a more detailed section was reached.

This section could be stated as an advanced section for world energy practitioners and had the next set of arts once the first part was learned by someone. The next part started with the creation of a unique body called the Void-walker body. Only after reaching this level could he be classified as a proper world energy cultivator.

Li Meng understood how powerful the whole art was and decided to concentrate on the matter at hand. He had managed to combine the law energy and world energy to form a new type and hence his understanding had grown to a great extent. He was excited to see the result of his next breakthrough and whether or not he could reach the Chaos law level.

He wanted to wait for the Keeper to come out of hibernation. They had two different matters to prepare for. One was the experiment to be conducted on one of the avatars to determine his path in body cultivation while the other was to prepare for the breakthrough of his next avatar.

He only had five more attempts remaining and he didn’t want to waste those. He finally decided that he would like to concentrate on the building up of a force in Misty-Valley and experiment on the avatar. He could undergo a breakthrough at the end of six months just before he returns to the academy.





But first, he needed to report the maters to the guild. He was the one who killed all his comrades, and hence he had decided to put the whole blame on the Black-devil church. The first step was to verify whether the Emerald Amethyst Hall had posted a bounty on their heads since theoretically they would be the best scapegoat for Huang to sacrifice.

To his elation, the Emerald Amethyst had posted a good bounty which meant that the Black-Devil church was officially a public enemy now. Li Meng went into an alley and started to wound himself until a good amount of blood was flowing. He decided to visit the merchant hall in that condition.
