Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group?

Book 1: Chapter 38: Association’s Recruitment Standards

“Here, these are the immortal cultivation techniques that I picked out. See which one you prefer.” Chen Heng laid out a few immortal cultivation techniques before Sirin after she sat on a cushion across from him.

“This one, then.” Sirin picked out a book with a purple cover from the five books. When she picked it up and flipped through it, she found it blank.

“Brother, is this Void Arts one of those wordless scriptures?” Sirin showed the blank pages to Chen Heng.

“No. That is indeed a blank book. This is the true Void Arts.” Chen Heng took out a jade strip from his spatial storage. How could an immortal cultivation technique be recorded in a book? No one would really think that a book could contain it, right?

“Place this jade strip on your forehead, and you will learn it.” Chen Heng handed the jade strip to Sirin.

As Chen Heng watched Sirin cultivate, he nodded in satisfaction. Rather than leaving these cultivation techniques in storage, he might as well give them to Sirin. That way, she would have the means to protect herself. However, cultivation required time. One month would not make her powerful. At best, she could only build her foundations. Furthermore, this would be with him providing her with cultivation resources.

Indeed, cultivation required a lot of time. Of course, there were those with exceptional talent. For example, Chen Heng’s father had become a Body Merger Realm powerhouse at a young age. Had Chen Heng had the ancestral crystal, he would also have broken through exceptionally quickly. He had been practicing the Chen Clan Sword Technique since he was young. After so many years, he had already reached the peak of the Chen Clan Sword Technique as a martial artist. Furthermore, he had rich experience surpassing his level.

“Elder Brother, I’m done learning it.” Sirin handed the jade strip back to Chen Heng.

“Sirin, these are Energy Refining Pills. They will improve your cultivation speed in the Energy Refinement Realm. Remember to place one in your mouth every time you cultivate. Don’t ever swallow it. This way, you will cultivate faster.” One bottle had ten Energy Refining Pills. Chen Heng gave Sirin two bottles. He had also checked her physique. If Sirin cultivated, she should be considered a genius—of course, still quite inferior to Chen Heng and his father. Two bottles of Energy Refining Pills should be sufficient for her to cultivate to the Foundation Building Realm.

After leaving the basement, Sirin rushed back to her room excitedly. She must have gotten addicted to cultivating. In reality, the cultivation process felt quite comfortable, especially in the Energy Refinement and Foundation Building Realms. Of course, Chen Heng heard that from his parents. Right now, he was not even in the Energy Refinement Realm, much less the Foundation Building Realm.

Chen Heng did not know what to do after returning to his room, so he decided to kill time in the chat group. He found that he liked spending time there.

He Who Knows Fate: I taught Sirin how to cultivate today.

Efreet: Is cultivating that exciting?

Faillen Angel Gabriel: Are you referring to cultivating as in staying awake the entire night, or do you mean actual cultivation?

He Who Knows Fate: Of course, actual cultivation. Staying awake the entire night is out of the question, especially for Sirin. I can do it but not her. She is still a child.

Iron Fist Teacher: This… So, He Who Knows Fate’s world is so advanced? There’s even cultivation?

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Can I ask? @He Who Knows Fate, how strong is the peak combat prowess of cultivators in that world?

He Who Knows Fate: There are ten cultivation realms in my world. Above these ten cultivation realms are immortals. Typically, an immortal can explode a star with just their body. Furthermore, the lower limits of immortals are high. The upper limits are ridiculously high. Some powerhouses can destroy the sun if they want to. However, I have not seen the highest level of those powerhouses, so I don’t know what exactly they can achieve.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: The combat prowess of your world is off the charts.

Lord of the White Night: I feel that it is still alright. However, destroying the sun and whatnot…

He Who Knows Fate: However, who knows how many years it would take to reach the level of immortals? Immortal cultivation as a system requires accumulation over time and talent.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: That is true.

Magus of Flowers: You mentioned accumulations over time? In that case, if Yakumo Yukari and Skadi started cultivation from the start, would they be immortals already?

He Who Knows Fate: …

He Who Knows Fate: Cultivation depends more on talent, not so much on accumulation over time. Yes. That is the case. I misspoke earlier.

Efreet: He Who Knows Fate has a strong desire to live.

He Who Knows Fate: That’s right. @Umaru-chan, have you awakened an ability yet?

Umaru-chan: I have. It’s a projection ability. The more I understand an item, be it real or fictitious, the better I can manifest it. However, the power of the item and how long it lasts depend on my Will Energy.

He Who Knows Fate: That’s quite an amazing ability. It has a high limit. What about the others?

I Have a Strong Presence: My ability controls presence, whether mine or others, even items. I suddenly feel that this ability is a form of malice against me, picking on me.

He Who Knows Fate: What’s wrong? It is a strong ability.

I Have a Strong Presence: Because my presence has been weak compared to others since childhood.

He Who Knows Fate: …

Iron Fist Teacher: I feel my ability is quite strong. It is fragility. For now, I can make something I touch fragile. However, I can use it on something not solid—for example, a flame. I tried scattering a flame with my fist, the flame from a stovetop. I not only felt it become fragile, but it even seemed somewhat solid.

Queen of Ice and Snow: They are all incredible abilities with great potential.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: I feel that it is because their potentials are all great. That should be why they were recruited into the Dimension Administrators Association. After all, the Dimension Administrators Association is an enforcement department that uses martial force. The recruited members should either have strong abilities or great potential. Why would the Dimension Administrators Association recruit ordinary people? For decoration? This is just practicality.

Magus of Flowers: Exactly what I was thinking.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Are you not embarrassed?

Efreet: Since you already have abilities, practice more. After all, the current world is not safe. Who knows when a world merger will happen again?

Faillen Angel Gabriel: Indeed. The customer service informed me that my world just underwent a world merger yesterday. Fortunately, it was just an ordinary world. It seems to be called Oreimo.

[TL Note: Oreimo, short for Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai or translated as My Little Sister Can’t Be This Cute, is a Japanese light novel/manga/anime. Here is the Wikipedia entry on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oreimo.]

Blank Never Loses: Actually, I feel that you wouldn’t be in any danger, even if it were a non-ordinary world. After all, you are an angel, so you should be powerful.
