The Beginning of the Journey

After leaving Floating Cloud City and heading in the direction where the strongest monsters in the area live, Jasmine tried to use his Inner Strength as often as possible. It was strange and new for him, so the boy wasn't used to these changes yet. Even at the 4th level of the Elementary Stage, he was much stronger than in the previous world, and this made him slightly nervous.

On the way to the most dangerous places in these areas, Jasmine encountered many beasts or monsters, which he killed and fed his stomach.

Once in front of the lake, he also looked at his appearance and did not like what he saw. A run-down boy, his face filled with scars, dark spots all over his body, and his body itself is nothing but skin and bones.

"System, I need to change my appearance.

"Ding!"

"Appearance change available, cost: 1000 points"

He sighed at the price. The boy has already reviewed the tasks and realized that it will be much more difficult to earn points in the future, although now he has a large number of them.

— I'll take it." — there was nothing he could do about it. If it wasn't for the task with the little loli, as the great-grandson called her, he wouldn't have worried at all about his appearance. He didn't care what he looked like.

Soon, he began to edit his appearance thanks to the system interface. It was similar to the way his great-grandson created his character for hours in these MMORPG games.

Sighing in his thoughts, he ended it after all. He now looked like an incredibly beautiful child with red eyes and snow-white hair. His face and gaze were so "icy" and emotionless that just looking at him would give you goosebumps.

After finishing his appearance, Jasmine bought some clothes that weren't that expensive, only 5 to 20 points. It was a black coat with a beautiful belt. He was also wearing another white cape with a down jacket around his neck. The trousers were tailored to match the coat, as well as comfortable and light knee-high boots.

Picking up an ordinary double-edged sword, Jasmine headed further, going deeper into the more dangerous part of the forest...

"I need looks to subdue the little loli.... I think I've done it, " he thought, creating a system window in front of him that showed his face. Even he felt sorry for the child he saw in the reflection of the interface. The boy's face was so cold, and his eyes were so piercing, that he couldn't help but want to take him in and warm him up, giving him the parental love and happiness that he didn't have.

His plan was to show himself to someone who had gone through the same pain as Jasmine. She needs to understand how similar they are, not only in their names, but also in their position.

"Maybe I should become the prince of the destroyed Kingdom of another kingdom..." scratching his chin, trying to find a beard there that he no longer has, Jasmine thought. Although he already had a plan of action with the red loli, but to minimize the chances of failure, he should think about this idea.

"Ding!"

"Up ahead is a True Stage monster at the border of level 5!"

"Just in time..." whispered Jasmine, activating his rings. As soon as the purchased items worked, its power completely disappeared from the perception of other creatures, and its presence was erased, at least for the monster.

After making his way forward a couple of hundred meters, he saw a bird that looked like a stork, but it was black in color, as if it was smeared with paint. The monster was near a lake with a small waterfall and was standing motionless near a flower.

Jasmine's heart began to pound, but he wasn't afraid. He was looking forward to it. Even though he had already killed animals along the way, but this was a simple hunt, and here and now, there was a Monster in front of him that could destroy his entire city in the past world.

Top...

Screeeee!!!

The bird spread its wings at the sound of footsteps, but looking around, there was no one, nowhere to be found. Its beak opened, and the aura of a True Stage creature radiated from its body.

Jasmine frowned and realized his mistake. Even though he was moving quite quietly and carefully, the monster's keen ears could hear him.

"Ding!"

"Tip: Use Internal Force to suppress the noise from your movement"

Jasmine immediately followed the system's advice and used Internal Force, which made him seem like a piece of fluff. And his footsteps became soft and intangible. This trick could be learned by any practitioner, even at the Initial Stage of Inner Strength like him, because successful hunting and success of hidden kills depended on it.

The monster calmed down and, after confirming that there was no one nearby, once again absorbed its wings and continued to sit in place.

Jasmine, seeing this, also calmed down and moved on. As soon as he was within a meter of being hit by the Monster, the system alerted him again.

"Your strength is many times inferior to the Monster in front of you, so you won't be able to pierce through its body with a normal sword

." Realizing that he had almost made a fatal mistake, he opened the store.

"System, choose me a sword that can pierce the carcasses of creatures up to the Emperor level ignoring the user

's level."

"Hades' sword is an ordinary one. Effective against Monsters, Demons, and Devils. Useless against humans. Price: 3000 points"

"#^$%$%" — this time, Jasmine couldn't help but curse in his head. But he also understood that such a weapon that would allow him to ignore the enemies ' levels would be very expensive, and also have restrictions on use.

After buying it, a large two-handed sword appeared in the boy's hands. At first, Jasmine was upset because the sword looked bigger than its owner and there was no way he could control it, but he soon realized that he had obviously jumped to conclusions.

When he raised the sword, he didn't even feel the weight, almost. He felt like he was holding an ordinary stick.

"We need to rely more on the system," the boy thought.

Without wasting any more time, he swung his sword at the Monster...

The cut!

The monster's head flew off his shoulders in a perfect cut, even the blood was practically gone. The bird from the very beginning to its death could not understand what happened there.

"Unbelievable..." said Jasmine, jumping up and down while holding a two-handed sword that looked bigger than himself. It was one and a half meters long and half a meter wide. After examining it, he said, " Thank you System, I forgot to mention that I need a sword without aura or anything.

Just like he said, Hades ' sword didn't feel at all. It looked like a normal sword, and if a practitioner looked at it, they wouldn't pay attention to it anymore.

"

It's good that you understand this!"

Jasmine smiled as he saw how pleased the system was. Throwing away his old sword, he walked over to the grass that grew near where the monster was. This weed was no different from other weeds, but what attracted attention was that it was alone here, and it was protected by a True Stage bird.

"System, what is this herb?

"Jin! "

"Star Herb of Concealment..."

Reading its features, the boy's eyes lit up. But soon, the system disrupted all of his plans, saying that processing such an herb into a pill was practically impossible in this place. You need an incredibly strong alchemist or a Heavenly Poison Pearl.

"Heavenly Poison Pearl, haa..." If he had his way, he would have killed Yun Che and taken this treasure. - System, is it possible to collect this herb without losing its useful properties, without a Pearl?

"Ding!"

"You will need to purchase an additional property for your ring."

He knew that there was a price for everything, so he spent 200 points again for the storage ring, which would allow him to collect herbs without losing their beneficial properties.

After taking the Star Concealing Grass, he also put the True Stage monster core into the storage rings.

"Ding!"

"See your improvement"

"Hmm?" Jasmine frowned, but did so. When he opened the system interface window, he was surprised. He was still at the Initial Stage of Inner Strength, but his level was ...

Jasmine. Cultivation Level: Initial stage of Inner Strength level 5....
