《Dawn of the Beast Cultivator》


 Introduction to world

    Millions of years ago, the world was at the peak of its era in the pursuit of power and knowledge. People ascended to the heavens and returned, walking amongst mortals. Great Buddhists, Evil Demons, Heavenly Celestials, Unfathomable Sages, Riders of Grand Majestic Beasts. Countless kinds of beings rose and fell. Countless kinds of method to ascend were known but a sudden change in the world changed that.


    Pandemonium spread throughout the world and countless grand races and even grander sects and organizations fell. The huge surge had come to an end as each race went to one place or another to hide, higher beings ran to the higher realms to hide from the destruction of the lower realm. Countless deaths in all races happened and many are said to have been pushed to extinction.


    Today, the world has regressed to what can be called a mediocre shadow of what was once a massive power that ruled the world. The races have each slowly crawled out of their holes and slowly spread their numbers once more, rediscovering what was once lost. New sects were born, clans spread, nations rise and war once more appeared.Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.


    Still the catastrophe had not only drastically changed the world but the energy of nature. Where once all kinds of power filled the air all over the massive planet no longer did this power appear. Instead the grand energies seemed as if something had snuffed a huge amount of it, now the areas were each energy appeared each possessed different kinds of energy. One region could simply have essence whilst another contain infernal energy. From this emerged three main energies that spread far and wide. These energies are the infernal energy from hell, celestial essence from heaven and the elemental qi from the earth,


    Only there was one type of being that could survive and grow in each and every kind. The most mysterious which were all called Riders. Beings who were one with their mounts born for each other and cultivated together.

 Chapter 1

    Will walked down street, pausing as he saw the vast amount of smoke flooding out of the corner shop. Before he new it he was running towards the fire, his figure disappearing into the smoke. In his deteriorating vision he could make out the outline of a figure trapped under a steal support that had fallen from the ceiling. He darted over grabbing hold of the steal beam. He pulled with all his might but it refused to move even one inch. Realising his powerlessness he looked into the eyes of the trapped person, through his tears that had come about through the smoke and the realisation that they were going to die, he saw a sorrow brought on by their imminent death and the fact they doomed an innocent man to share their fate.


    Will stood up and looked around witnessing as his world slowly collapsed around him feeling deep resentment towards his powerlessness and his inability to save even one person. As the building began to collapse around him and the world started to fade away, he closed his eyes and wished to have the power to make a difference and never be powerless again.

    Will awoke, fearful of his surroundings, bewildered by the landscape he found himself in. Trees towered above only lit up by the sparse sunlight that broke through the canopy above him. He looked around, bewildered by the environment all around him. He was in a forest, Will looked around unsure of what to do. ¡°Where the hell am I¡± he screamed to nobody in particular. Will had never been to a forest before and didn¡¯t know what to do. He rose, slowly, weary of his surroundings and making up his mind he set of in a random direction in hope of finding civilisation started walking forward, slowly at first before gradually increasing his pace as his confidence grew. He paused all of a sudden, observing his surroundings he found himself on the edge of a clearing, nothing out of the ordinary he told himself somewhat inclined to believe that clearings were commonplace in a forest, cautiously he stepped forwards.If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen.

    As he placed his foot down, he felt the ground give way beneath his weight. He plummeted into the darkness unable to see what was beneath him. After what felt like an eternity, he hit the cold stone ground hard, the bones in his legs shattered by the impact. Searing pain coursed through him clouding his mind and preventing him from making rational decisions. Out of the corner of his eyes he saw a flickering light. Instinctively he slowly dragged himself towards it, gritting his teeth to bear with the paralysing pain that numbed his senses. He arrived before the light; it was a rock releasing a dull blue light that seemed to throb from within the rock. Will reached out fearlessly unable to comprehend what was going on due to the extreme pain coming from his legs.

 Chapter 2

    Will awoke to a blaring voice in his mind.


    Congratulations on acquiring the Sacred Rider Constitution¡­.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± questioned Will unsure of what the voice in his mind was.

    ¡°Urgh yeah I guess¡± stated Will still unsure of what was happening.


    Congratulations on winning: Unknown Beast Egg, Pinnacle Heaven Ranked Rider Cultivation Technique and Basic Cultivation Understanding¡­.


    ¡°What does this all mean?¡± inquired will as an egg and two books appeared in front of him. This unfortunately warranted no response from the system. Shrugging Will decided to see what he had received. He pushed the egg to the side without sparing it a glance, deciding to read the two books that lay in front of him first. Looking at the covers of the books he could see the words Basic Cultivation Encyclopaedia and Divine Rider Cultivation Technique. After brief consideration Will decided to read the basic cultivation encyclopaedia first so that he could have at least a basic understanding about what was going on the world.


    Opening the book, he saw that there were 4 chapters: Chapter 1- Infernal Essence and Demonic Cultivators, Chapter 2- Celestial Essence and Heavenly Cultivators, Chapter 3- Elemental Qi and Elemental Cultivators and Chapter 4- Riders.


    Deciding to start with chapter 1 Will began to read where he learned about the cultivation realms of demonic cultivation starting from the body tempering realm where the demonic cultivators had to absorb demonic essence through there Meridien¡¯s and store it in their core which was known as a devil cave if they are a demonic cultivator. It also said that demonic cultivator whilst being extremely powerful were rare and tended to be viewed as evil and a plight upon the world by the general population of the world and the holy sects that cultivated in celestial essence leading to them being hunted down by righteous sects whenever a demonic cultivator emerged.


    Moving onto chapter 2 Will began to read about celestial essence and its great power at purifying and healing. He also learnt about how although initially heavenly cultivators were weaker than demonic cultivators, they grow to be equal in strength to demonic cultivators. He also learnt about how similarly to demonic cultivators¡¯ heavenly cultivators also absorb essence from the surroundings but they absorb celestial essence. The celestial is absorbed into their Meriden¡¯s then moved to their core which in heavenly cultivators was called the heavenly palace. Unlike demonic cultivators¡¯ heavenly cultivator are beloved the citizens of the world.The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.


    Will finished processing what he had just learnt and decided to move onto chapter 3. Chapter 3 was about elemental qi and elemental cultivators. These cultivators absorbed elemental qi from nature and stored it in their core where they would birth seeds of elements which they would grow to become full trees as their cultivation increased. These were the most common of cultivators and the most diverse because most commoners only had access to elemental cultivation techniques.


    And finally, he turned to chapter 4. This chapter intrigued Will because the system said he had acquired the Sacred Rider Physique and he wanted to learn what that meant. He began reading, his horror building due to the discovery that riders cannot cultivate alone. This was because riders were born with Meridien¡¯s five times thicker and resilient that a normal cultivator and they had the ability to move their meridien¡¯s at will whilst normal cultivators meridien¡¯s were static and could not be moved at will. Will learnt that riders were the only type of cultivator that could safely cultivate in all the energies of the world without harm coming to them. Will also read that riders needed beasts who were born as dao beasts that had a core of some sort but didn¡¯t have meridien¡¯s. The lack of meridien¡¯s meant that dao beasts would never be able to hatch from their egg and unless a rider cultivated with them, they would remain that way forever.


    Will also learnt that some powerful beasts would collect these unborn dao beasts and would look after them until a rider came along and took them. Furthermore, riders could have different levels of compatibility with dao beasts which they could see when choosing a dao beast because the dao beast eggs would glow different colours ranging from white to gold with the latter being perfect compatibilities and former being terrible compatibility. Riders could have multiple dao beasts whilst dao beasts could only have one rider and if the rider perished the dao beast would die as well.


    After reading this Will decided to revaluate the egg he had received from the system and found it shone gold in his vision. Will decided to read the cultivation technique he had received from the system to see how he could begin to cultivate with the mysterious egg. Opening the book, he saw the words Divine Riders Cultivation Technique, he began to read in search of answers about cultivation. Once he finished reading the book, he realised to his astonishment that he could recall every word in the book flawlessly. After a moment of contemplation, he concluded that it must be a hidden benefit of receiving the sacred rider physique.


    Turning his attention to the egg Will decided that it was time to try and cultivate with it. He reached over and picked up the egg noticing that it had substantial weight for its small size that only measured about 20cm in diameter. Will slowly and tentatively fed his meridien¡¯s into the egg cautiously as to not make any errors. He felt and astonishingly powerful and pure energy that he decided must be celestial essence. He started to circulate this energy according to the instructions in the divine rider¡¯s cultivation manual. All of a sudden, the energy broke out of the core flowing through the bodies of the dao beast and Will strengthening their bodies and waking up the beast the lay in a dormant state inside the egg. ¡°Crack¡± the sound of a breaking egg echoed through the cavern waking Will from his state of cultivation. He looked down to see the dao beast breaking out of its egg. The beast that emerged made Will do pale as he dropped the dao beast that was half out of its egg and backed away pale as paper from the fright. What had emerged from the egg was a¡­.
