After having some rest he started digging the whole island he found many different herbs. He started arranging the herbs and then collected these herbs in his storage pouch .When he thought about sleeping he saw a big stone placed near the tree , he tried to carve a cave with his [aura blade][it is a low level technique used by clans guard ] after carving when he tried to enter the cave his whole body started to feel dizzy and his soul was leaving his body ,he was dripping sweat like crazy he tried his best to stay conscious but his vision became blurry and he fell inside the cave. He felt strong stench of blood hitting his nose he was lying near bodies of some cultivators whose flesh was being eaten by some [dead crows]''''These crows are usually used for disposing of dead bodies they are low level Demonic beasts. He opened his eyes and started looking around , he felt his broken bones and his half eaten chest he was gasping for air ,he immediately stared gathering chi inside his body to heal his wounds . A day passed by and his body healed quite a bit During his cultivation he already understood his situation. His [Soul] has been split between two bodies {Sun zunzi} and {Shura Slave 8}{Shura Slave 8}[''Shura Sect ''is a Assassin sect which is a 3rd level sect ]Mainly these {Shura Slaves} are used for meat shielding or to bait the target.

He can clearly feel his soul connected to his first body after finding a safe place he tried to connect to his first body ,after some time his consciousness returned to his first body .He can feel his connection with his second body he was happy .But also worried " because this a great disadvantage "his soul is in Qi refining but after cutting in half it has decreased to Martial art level {Cultivator has to cultivate his soul with body ,if one lacks either his body cultivation or Soul cultivation he can easily be defeated in same realm }This is a big problem "Fighting in same realm is difficult" "Cultivating to next realm will be difficult too" "Cultivation speed will be decreased by half " He can feel his body aura decreased by half ,he immediately connected to his second body . Ya this body aura is also week but it is more then my first body due to realm gap I sound give my self a name [after thinking for sometime]{Sun} I can not give this body my clan name but {Sun} is good He tried to look for {Sun} memories ,This person was a orphan at the age of 8 he was taken to {Shura Sect} by an elder, he was just a handyman disciple which are mostly used for odd jobs .If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent.

I have learn some basic alchemy to treat my wounds and injuries both related to my body and soul . I have to make up for my strength. After leaving this [Red Zone] i have to make some connections if i want to rule , I have to first show people what profit they can have while following me People will always follow this rule : ** If you have power people will follow you ** Power can be of different kinds like ''If you are rich , You have connections , You are strong or Your Powerful family background '' Why would people like to follow me , think about it . " I am not strong for now , I am just 3rd level of Qi refining Realm " "I am not rich . I have only 318 spiritual stones in my storage pouch " "About family background , I don''t even remember face of my mother and my father is a hero but whenever i think about him i have a feeling like he is dead" "And for connections what can person with lost memories find " For enemies i think i have to be cautious about my surrounding after leaving this [Red Zone] The person who locked my heart with these chains is mostly my family member . Because if he wanted to kill me he should not have used these chains to restrain my growth , First i have to explore these islands . I don''t know about treasures but their must be many spiritual grasses and herbs which can help me in my cultivation But first i have to take care of my 2nd body. "Soul Separation" "Now all he wanted was to separate his conscious mind from his Second Body" He does not want his soul to switch everything. He wants to make his soul operate on its own, but he also wants to operate his second body if its 1st body dies or was in a great danger. [Sam] Realizing : Yes i can do that like how his first body still doesn''t want to hurt his family . He has separated a thought from his soul and stored it in his heart if i was trying to kill his family member it can easily destroy this body with which i can also die . [Sam] I have to separate my thoughts and leave my most desperate thoughts in [Sun''s]body which will help me to operate my 2nd body "ha ha ha aaaa" He switch back to his 2nd body [Sun]and desperately tried to lock his thoughts ,He wants his 2nd body to be a Assassin because of its previous profession. People doesn''t know about him much only some people from [Shura Sect] know about this body , He doesn''t have any family which is also a good part for my plan . [Ever person have their roots] But what if no one knows about it . It can greatly help me in my plans. I have to first separate my thoughts that can make our connection more easy . If in future my soul grows its own consciousness and does not want me to possess my 2nd second body it will be a disaster. Because it is my soul and also can reach my memories after gaining consciousness. I have to make it obey somehow so my first thought should be total loyalty towards my 1st body, After 1 day of separating his thoughts ,he separated [Loyalty Lock] in his second body which directly was placed in his heart , the more time this thought is locked and stay in this body the more it will grow After leaving the [Loyalty Lock] inside his second body he went inside the mountains and near a lake he dug up a tunnel and placed himself inside and scattered leave to hide the view from outside and returned to his consciousness to [Sun zunzi] [Sun zunzi] Now everything is done , my second body will cultivate without any other thought i have instructed it in it mind to cultivate . I will wait for the day it grows its own consciousnessStolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. and from that day it can start working as my shadow.

Their is one thing that if foreshore i have to search the entire [20 Islands] , because only some small islands which are formed due to these 20 Islands have spiritual herbs and forging materials for weapons so how many great things can i find in main Islands , But for all this i need strength i have to cultivate and grow strong regardless of my defect in soul . [Sun zunzi] I think my body died while entering this array and then my soul entered this body when i was inside this array ,but this array is cracked and i know this because when i taken over this body he was not critically damaged if this array is at least a Jindan then this body should be a charcoal but my body was still fine .

"Exploring Twin Goat Islands" Returning to [Sun zunzi] i should start exploring these Islands . First i have to conceal my aura , so that these red goats don''t alert other monsters. After returning to [Twin Goat Island] and concealing my aura i rushed deep inside the dense jungle , after some time i discovered a large building which looks very old and was half broken . Their was la large size red goat i can feel from the aura that this is at least at the level of 1 qi refining . I have to distract this Red goat , I have to search this building , this building is a building owned by [Spiritual Beast Sect] their must be some treasures , and in my current situation i need to improve my strength by any means. He took light steps and performed shadow steps and blend with shadows of trees after reaching near the big red goat he drew his aur and performed a shadow slash from front and again hid himself and moved towards backside slash hit the goats head , he screamed in pain his head was bleeding , his right eye was cut , Goat tried its best to detect the enemy but before it can look behind Sun zunzi directly landed on the goats head with shadow blade created in both hands with heavy thud. He immediately collected body of Big goat and entered building . Before entering their was a sign carved in the stone slab [Book pavilion], he entered the first floor . Their were many books but when he opened them , the words have lost ink due to aging he searched every book to find any useful cultivation techniques but after searching for half day he only found 2 techniques [Misty Sword ,Basic Herb Alchemy ] after putting these 2 books in his pouch , he moved to the upper floor Their are mostly [ Defense Technique ] after taking some food pills which he made from herbs. He again started looking inside the books which can still be used , he found 3 [Defense techniques] *Turtle shell Shield *Wind shield *Mountain block Next should be alchemy or Forging TechniquesSupport the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. But to his surprise he saw books related to [Attack Techniques] [Sun zunzi] This should be special attack cultivation techniques , i should look carefully. After going through all books he thought their are at least 10 useable books and 15 books which are half clear but these half clear books are also useful , if i can understand these techniques i can create my own attack techniques. When he reached 4th floor he can sense aura of someone but he cannot clearly detect weather its a man or spiritual beast he activated his shadow steps and shadow slash , the aura he feels is very low but he is more cautious due to it , because he can not detect any spiritual breath from that thing , he slowly approached on 4th floor he saw shelfs of books but can waggly detect the aura fluctuation from behind the book shelfs. Shadow steps directly climbed on a shelf and saw 1 Human like figure , it is a figure like human but still feels like not a human [Like a puppet] * can it be * he wants to check if this puppet is still active or not , he grabbed his storage pouch and retrieve few food pill and threw some at puppet but it did not react , he again threw some more food pills towards that puppet and when it did not react , he slowly closed the gap between them and he started inspecting it , he can see some ancient ruins which are drawn on it , the material is also about to crumple if it take 2 or 3 attacks but he is surprised more by how this puppet can still be working after so much time he used his spiritual aura and tried to refine it due to overtime and damage on the puppet its rank has been demoted to foundation building ,so that is why i can still refine it , if it has peak Foundation Building i would have faced a rejection from it but now i can fell that it is at 3 level of Foundation Building Realm , after some time he refined the puppet and opened its internal structure after locking inside he saw large no. of spiritual stones pilled up but lost their spirit energy and only last stone had some spirit energy left in it , so that is why it was still working but their is at least 100 or more High level spiritual stones stuffed inside this puppet , it should have been broken from overload but why is it still working or is this thing only used for some other motive like for a particular message which this puppet has to convey but it has still some spiritual energy and when i was inspecting it , it did not reveled any information , message or anything I think it should be used to observe the people who entered in this pavilion. '' Yaa aa that is the best reason i can find '' And now that the {puppet sect} is no more it can not sent any message and the link between him and his master is destroyed so he is just here standing without any command , i have to find a book to refine its material so that i can use a foundation building puppet , it can help me search this islands with ease . He immediately collected it inside his storage pouch and started checking on the contents of the book on this floor [Their are mostly books related to Alchemy , carving , Forging and How to make a blood contract with spiritual beasts ] the books on this floor are made of higher quality material which can preserve the quality and content of these books. This is the last floor on this pavilion i should start learning some attack techniques , this place is far better for living then that cave and i can even find food just by hunting the goats on this Island , i did not see any powerful beast on this Island and most of the red goats did not come near this pavilion due to fear of qi refining goat which i killed before , it should be fine to stay here. {Training [Tiger Claw Chains] 1 } After placing some food pills and cleaning the forth floor he went in search of some herbs and food , After hunting some Red Goats he came back and cleared his storage pouch, [Sun zunzi] i need a storage ring , storage pouch can not store more then a room worth of things . My storage pouch always get full by just some spiritual beasts and i don''t even have some space to store other things, the meat inside storage space doesn''t rot so food is mostly kept inside this pouch.. aa a aha whatever [i will think about it when i eave this place] [Sun Zuzni] First i should start learning attack techniques , i dont know much attack techniques just Aura blade and Shadow blade. Misty sword technique is a technique with great potential it can be combined in any attack technique . Mainly it uses body aura to form mist surrounding a person the more he comprehended the better his control, thickness of mist and range of mist will be , Firstly i have to comprehend this technique to to certain level son that i can perform it with any attack i want but for now i can only use a sword to slowly study it, He took out a sword from his pouch and started comprehending the Misty sword , he trained day and night [one can say if he wants to learn something he will dedicate himself until he understand] Comprehending realm *Basic **Minor ***Mid ****Sub Mid *****Advance On day 5 he was able to master Misty Sword to *Basic level , these techniques are more powerful than current techniques because these techniques are at least older then 10,000 years and now many powerful techniques are mostly in hands of powerful groups and organizations but small sect and family only has some techniques which are derived from these techniques like their is a Mid level technique which was sold in [Moon Auction House] at high price which was called ''Hidden Mist'' but now i can tell that ''Hidden Mist'' is just a lower technique which is written by someone who only comprehended it at Basic level,Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. Because in basic level it only states that one has to form a drop from aura and second make it heat up in fastest speed and then control the mist to revolve around the user , but it never talks about next step , the [Misty Sword] i comprehended to basic level states that how with the help of aura one has to release it while heating his body so that the technique can be performed at fastest speed as compare to ''Hidden Mist'' and that is just at the basic level , if i am able to comprehend this technique to mid level i will be able to make mist clowns which can help me escape or attack a person with surprise and the power of attack will also increases as the mist will follow the sword and condense in sword aura . [sun Zunzi] ooh shit i almost forget about [Sun] he left his mind body and when he opened his eyes his throat was dry his stomach was growling his face was pale white his breath was weak ..Damn this is a problem , it is like i have to take care of 2 children if i don''t feed them they will dry a beggars death , i have leave my most desired thought and lock it inside the mind [First one *Loyalty Desire* was placed in heart] in this body before i go back to my main body. After waking up he hunted some small rabbits and a snake after eating and filling his stomach he took out the techniques which he boat from the market he studied them , [Sun] These are not any special techniques just some low level attack skills, due to comprehension on ''Misty Sword'' he can use this attack with [Sun''s] body to , he just need to adjust his body and perform some training before performing that technique so that this body can also get hang of this skill. He focused learning the basic techniques which he boat from market , these were just low leveling techniques he reached *Minor level in just 2 hours which was quite impressive. These are basic techniques but these are also the best techniques for a person to build their foundation properly , one has to learn about more so that when in actual fight i can easily determine a person weakness and strength , also can improve my skills where they are lacking . After preparing some food pills and eating them he returned mind control to [Sun Zunzi] I wants to learn more techniques so that he can be proficient in every aspect whether its sword, hand to hand , assassin or other aspect i want to learn every skill which i come in contact with , if need to be powerful i have to create my own techniques so only i can know about their power and weakness. He started learning from the 15 half inked books which he collected, First book was [Tiger Claws Technique] which create a aura claw which can easily slice stones like tofu , due to only having basic some words he can only comprehend this technique to sub minor realm [ Incomplete ] , it is a powerful attack technique but above Foundation Building Realm this technique will lose its value and can only be used as common attack technique if i can find complete copy of this skill it can be used up to jindan but alas After 6 days he reached Basic level in [Tiger Claws Technique]. I should go and hunt some beasts and can also check the power of this skill. Entering the forest near pavilion he started searching for red goats but he can feel that the number of goats are very less from the day he came [I just hunted 10 or 15 red goats but why are their numbers so low now]''he became suspicious he collected his breath and suppressed his aura but can not find any cause of decreased number of red goat he just hunted 5 red goats and came back '' {Training (Tiger Claw Chain)2} First thing after returning , he started making more food pills he nearly made 100 food pills with the help of Spiritual Beasts meat and some herbs which he collected .(Sun Zunzi) He returned soul mind to ( Sun )After eating some good pills and preparing some food pills for this body he .. returned..He want to study all the half clear techniques so he can understand and can help him improve his skills , moreover he is also trying to create his own skill so that he can retain the essence of these skill and can also combine them with his other skills ,so firstly he wants to comprehend these 15 techniques and learn as much as he can ,He first started comprehending {Flowing Hands Technique} this technique can make a person hand swift as wind and hard as an diamond if one can comprehend this technique to sub mid level , but I just need to learn these techniques to al least reach basic level so that I can know about the use and weakness of techniques related to these skills. [Flowing hands technique] require a person to both train and physically and in aura training , a person has to press his certain acupoints in his hands and arms to control his aura and then perform the skill written in this book to maintain his aura as much as he can, this skill main focus is control of aura , if i can perfectly master this technique my comprehension for hand based skills will improve at great speed. But the time it takes to comprehend this skill is also very high it almost took 1 month to reach the Basic level of comprehension , i this month every 2nd day he took break to check on his 2nd body and ate food pills to sustain his hunger and when he comprehended [Flowing hands technique] he also practiced this skill with [Sun''s] body so that i can also get a hang of this skill [Due to his mind body the skill he comprehend can easily be transferred to his 2nd body but to fully reach the same level he has to practice it physically so that , when performing the set of techniques his body can keep up with the skills] his training lasted for 7 months he has almost comprehended all the skills from the books to Basic level , Last skill which he was currently comprehending was [Demon suppressing chains] this skill uses a person aura to form a chain around his hands which can used both be used in attack and defense , but he was trying to modify this skill by combining [Tiger claw technique] he wants to create the aura chains more powerful by covering it with tiger claw technique , all the aspect of these skills are combined but main problem still remains which is high consumption of aura , Just by performing this skill for 10 seconds his aura will be completely depleted , i have to make change in the use of aura in chains which can only bust out attack only when hit with target but for now i can not come up with any solution. I also studied basic alchemy book from which i can now identify mostly any basic and some rare herbs but to identify high level herbs i have to study from some advance alchemy books Royal Road is the home of this novel.

My mom wanted to go back to sect she wanted to reach jinden [Because she always looked 1 Elder as her rivel and he was at 9th level of Enlightenment realm , she does not wanted to be left behind ] and their were not the resources like a sect can provide at home , so she promised my father she will return after reaching jindan , But after she left she never came back not ever a single message was sent , my father face was becoming thin and pale day by day my father always sent message but the reply never came and the so called friends in [Daala Town] saw my father condition they patiently waited for the chance their is always a Demonic spirit beats attack every few years .

[Xie Moon] after hearing these words she realized that this boy still don''t trust anyone he is reluctant to open his heart to anyone. After that day she started taking care of him , he opened up bit by bit and told her many things about him , they were both happy in their heart , he also found a new goal as his mother told him that he has to become strong and inherit her Moon pavilion, She also found many alchemist to remove Demon nail but she could not hire any high level alchemist with her connections .

Now i have to find resources for my 1st body so that i can real same level in 1 month. Soul mind [Back to Sun Zunzi] i was just checking the situation, I will start gathering information regarding [Bone Sect] in two days, I should speed up my search . He started to search for spirit beats on this island, He wants to know what kind of spirit beats are their on this island, After some time he spotted some spirit monkeys , spirit pigs and spirit dogs so this island is covered with low level spirit beats of all kind, I want to fight them face to face but for now finding resources is more important, He applied his skill shadow steps and blend with shadows and started searching for any inheritance of [Spirit Beasts Sect] this island is not so big it is same as previous island, after searching for while he couldn''t find any building of or cave related to Spirit beasts sect , He directly climbed his spirit boat and flew towards next island after reaching the next island he can feel the dense spiritual energy in air which is convert into mist . He knew his chance to breakthrough is on this island , he hide his aura and with caution started searching for the source of mist. The aura on this island is too dense , i have to carefully search this island , their must be spiritual beasts which are above Foundation building. Visibility is very poor in this dense mist , he can feel eyes of several spirit animal staring at him, he started to run his {Misty sword skill} he want to create more mist so he can blend into it after performing {Misty sword skill} he hide his aura and ran far away , the eyes which were locked on him are gone, He felt sense of relief but at this moment a hideous demonic ape with big and bleeding face with red eyes, red fur, human like hands and arms twice as long as his body was standing right behind him, His heart tensed up ,he can feel that wind from his back is now blocked , he can feel the light murderous aura leaking behind his body . His knees feel weak , he can feel if he started to run he will make mistake and can die immediately, he bit his tongue , he knows mostly fear can make a person legs go weak. He has to create a distance ,he started running , he performed his [Tiger chain claw] technique and hooked his chain to tree and pulled himself towards that tree but as he lifted himself in air and was about to reach the tree , he saw shadow on ground of himself about to be grabbed by large hands , he performed shadow steps to increase the distance. He is thinking about escaping with soul mind but he immediately denied this idea , he didn''t even fought with the thing that wanted his life and he is trying to escape, how can he dominate this world. He took out puppet from his storage pouch and performed [Misty sword skill] he blended in the dense mist , puppet immediately attacked Demon ape with his full force attack Demon ape hands burst while defending from his attack and he fled from that place , Sun Zunzi appeared from the mist and checked his puppet , by the attack and defence power of that ape i can say its at early stage of foundation building stage, the difference is big . I Cant even sense when he blocked my escape path , i have to cross to foundation building or i will die sooner or later. This puppet can only attack or defend 5 or 6 attack at most and after that i am all lone on this Island . [Interesting , very Interesting]this is the first time he came in contact with a fight against Foundation Building stage {The thrill of near death experience made his blood boil} . { If You like my book } { Plz add my book to library } [ Comment about your thoughts on my book [good or bad] , i will try to improve ] {Foundation Building} I have to move according to the puppet range of attack, After searching for while he found a cave near dense trees, He immediately performed [Misty sword skill] and followed his puppet, But inside he found a dead body of Spirit beats covered in green liquid , he is dead for days i think this green liquid must be poison, but due to the aura of spirit bear no other animal came to this cave, i think this bear fought with some poisons creature and ran back to its cave and then died here , His body is still in tacked which means no other beasts noticed it . Due yo its aura i has to use its body for my self protection , He can not break through to foundation building , the aura is dense but not enough to improve my soul power , i have to find the main source of this aura but to improve my strength and survival rate i should try to reach minor comprehension rate in [Misty sword skill] He started to set a normal defensive array , after setting up the array he wanted to look for the source of mist , He has to speed up his search because [Sun] information gathering mission will take place in 2 days and within 5 days he will enter [Flaming mountains] he has to find the source of mist , if he wants to improve his soul power. Searching for half a day he found out that if he wants to reach the main source of the mist he has to kill 2 Early Foundation building wolfs , he came back to the bear cave and started comprehending the [Misty sword skill] . He wants to increase his skills comprehension level so that he can be more confident in attacking or defending. First skill [Misty sword] , he wants to comprehend more about blending in mist so to hide his aura and also to increase his chances of escaping without being noticed, He knows his weakness , he is not strong enough and can easily be killed by Foundation building beats , so he has to prepare his escape in advance , Never fight a long battle in this situation if other beats came he will be a dead meat to them , so he should try his best to improve his skill in hiding and escaping. I should also improve my [Tiger chain claw skill] it can help me in many situation[Thinking to himself], after that he started to comprehend [Misty sword skill] for 2 days ,after these two days went by his soul mind return to [Sun] , Now i have to complete the mission.This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon. He summoned all his information gathering force at his cave , he informed them about the next mission and selected 4 people who were at level 7 or 8 in qi refining realm , he told them that if the mission is cleared successfully they will be given a chance to increase their cultivation level, the 4 of them knelt on the knees and nodded in satisfaction, he wants to give them a chance to improve themselves and to prove that with him as their leader he can make them strong , he knows many of them joined them just because they don''t have money or wants to stick to him till they can take the power he is creating, He knows human greed he has to improve himself if he can not keep up with the gap in power , his power to hold this group will be taken by someone else. They all collected the food and blood pills and started heading towards [Bone sect] they have collected some information regarding this treasure which appeared in [Bone sect] it just that they did not know whether its a treasure weapon or a spirit stone mine, They have to conform this doubt , they have planned to start this mission at night , they sat at the far edge of the mountain observing the ins and out of the sect and then [Sun] disguise as a spirit tea seller came to the guards , Boss i have delivered this can you give me spirit stones i have to leave immediately, Guards where talking with each other but when they saw tea seller they frowned and said: where is the uncle [Sun] he will be busy for few days , Give me spirit stones i am already very tired carrying these bags you can put them inside yourself, Guards with angry look : what the hell , uncle has hired this boy for job he is so lazy , Only when you reach the inner disciples guards gate will your job be noted as done , [Sun][Laughing inside] what i have to climb more stairs with these bags, if uncle told me before i would have directly rejected him. Can you give me spirit stones first , i will leave it at the gate of inner disciples gate [cunning look] Guards: do you think we are some cuties first deliver it then we will give you your pay for the job. [Sun][With tired looks] okay , lifted the two bags with great strength and went inside Guards [Looking smug]: uncle is better at his job, this lazy bastard wanted us to do his job humph.. Other Guard: he thinks we are guards so he can provoke us humph.. [Sun] after going inside he left one bag at the entrance of restricted area, one of his 4 subordinate was hiding in that bag , after coming out from it he started heading towards the restricted area , he is wearing the dress of [Shura sect] which was given to him by [Sun] , he is the most loyal subordinate of [Sun] , he has made him learn shadow steps and shadow blade , after performing shadow steps he came close to the tunnel , he heard guard''s talking about the spirit mine and how they can earn more spirit stones from sect if they also register to work in mine , on the other hand [Sun] has delivered the goods and is back at he entrance of the sect collecting spirit stones. [Mission Completion] After leaving the [Bone Sect] [Sun] waited for his subordinate at mountain behind the sect. When the subordinate arrived he told him all the information he gathered, after receiving the information , [Sun] my guess was correct , so they do have found spirit stone mine. If this information is passed to [Night court] their will be some changes in both sect , tell all the other subordinates to keep an eye on both the Sects and collect as much information as they can . After hearing his command , his 1st immediately knelt on one knee and nodded . They both first went back to their base and started preparing for [Bone sect]. While doing all this [Sun] was wearing a Human face mask , he always put mask on his face whether its his subordinates or other''s he always wear a mask , no one has seen his true face. After putting on new Human face mask he left and went to [Bone Sect] he wants to complete this mission immediately. After giving [Bone sect] the information about the spirit stone mine , he collected the token which is used for entry purposes in [Flaming Mountains] ,with this token he with his 4 subordinate can enter the [Flaming mountain] to further improve their cultivation. He returned to his main body [Sun Zunzi], after completing his mission he wants to further improve his comprehension with in 2 days , due to the thick spiritual energy on this island he can improve his skills quite fast , he can easily recover this spiritual energy after emptying and he can practice his skills continuously without fear or depleting his spiritual energy. So , he started to practice his skill without taking any break only taking food pills and blood pills to keep him from getting hungry, In two days his [Misty Sword skill] was slightly improved but the main progress was on the Mist aspect , he completely ignored the sword skill in [Misty sword] but only comprehended Mist skill which can help him in blending in mist and hiding his presence, Due to the nature of this Island he wants to improve his mist skill so with the help of mist he can freely search the source of dense mist and one can say that his skill in blending and hiding in mist was improved significantly. He can now blend in mist and hide his aura in split seconds , he can also increase the range of mist which he can release from his aura , his control over the released mist was also improved.Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon. Today is the day my 2nd body will Breakthrough to Foundation Building stage , their are only 6 hours , i should search for the main source of this aura for now, i could not waste anytime , if i can breakthrough with in 48 hours my soul power will grow rapidly , if i could breakthrough in 48 hours with both body , but if i can not i should think of a way to breakthrough with in a month otherwise it will be a simple breakthrough which can not improve my soul power. He left the cave and started looking for the source , whenever he feel the presence of someone he performs [Misty Sword skill] to blend and hide his aura. After searching for 4 hours he finally found the wolf which where guarding the lake [Lake seems to be the source of mist, it looks like some natural treasure is preserved in this lake which converts this spiritual water into dense liquid and extra liquid forms the mist which cover this whole Island ] , but the main problem is , how to avoid these wolf [Both the wolfs are in Early Foundation Building stage] even if i some how kills them both the commotion will alert the other spiritual beasts. Just as he was thinking of a way to enter without being noticed, he can feel a threatening aura locking on to him, he performed [Misty Sword skill] but he can still feel the threatening aura , I am sure this spiritual beats is at least at the Late stage of Foundation building or above. He took few steps and was about to leave when he saw a pair pink eyes looking at him with curiosity and surprise. He can feel the spiritual beasts movement , it was not threatening . As he was about to leave , he heard a voice in his mind which was calling him toward the biggest cave in the mountain, first he thought he was just hallucinating but the voice called him again and again, he does not want to fall in a trap but after thinking for a second he followed the voice and reached at the entrance of the big cave, He did not immediately went in but took out his puppet and went in cautiously , after entering the cave he can see many precious herbs and many herbs which he can not even recognize. He took every step carefully when he reached at the end of the cave he was surprised , their was a small pond which was full with the same spiritual water as the lake which he saw outside , but their was slight movement in the pond he immediately took a defensive pose. Their was pair of fluffy ears which came out of the pond first , after ears the face the body and the tails , yes.. Their are 4 tails , this looks like 9 tail fox[ he muttered to himself ] I am indeed a nine tail fox , he heard a voice inside his mind. [Sun Zuzni] with surprised look on his face , are you the one talking to me this whole time. Nine tail fox : yes [Sun Zunzi] : if you are the on talking to me the whole time , jump on your legs , so that i can confirm. Nine tail fox : with disbelief in her eyes , i am the one talking to you [thinking to itself if i were to do this stupid thing everyone will laugh at me , does he think i am a dog],she immediately got angry and locked him with soul pressure , [If she wants she can kill him by asserting more pressure ] [Nine tail fox] Under the pressure of nine tail fox he felt like his skin is about to fall of but he endured the pressure, [Sun Zunzi] : [Thought to himself] and by this i have conformed my suspicion . Sun zunzi : I still don''t believe it you are the one talking to me through my mind. Nine tail fox : And why do you think that . Sun zunzi : what if a natural born treasure if talking to me to recognize me as its owner and you just want to grab that treasure from me. [Natural born treasure only choose their owner after they recognize them it can be due to owner''s power , innocence , habits , etc. ] Nine tail fox : [confused] looked helpless , so what do you want from me that can make you agree i am the voice talking to you through your soul power. Sun zunzi : i will make talk to that voice and if he does the same thing as you i can confirm it. [If you are talking to my soul power jump and wag your tails] Nine tail fox : with a grin on her face jumped and wagged its tail [Looking embarrassed]. Sun zunzi : [Ha, ha . the fish is hooked] ohh so you were really telling the truth [with sorry face]. Nine tail fox : I have never seen anyone so foolish [with angry look].
