The Lone SF Transmigrator in the Otherworld Forum

The exact results could only be known after being able to send him to the Galactic Empire.

Is it not too late?

At least they were lucky in that they could have some hope.

"It was those Sephiroth bastards."

"It seems they dug a trap and lured us in. There were enemies among them that were difficult for just one or two of us to handle."

"Is that so?"

While they used to move in small groups before, now they were coming out strategically in armies.

Moreover, the strong ones who had been laying low for a while have also started to move, or so they said.

"Hmm..."

Although support from the Galactic Empire, including fortresses and fleets, was following, it was ultimately a force prepared for a war of attrition and battles of quantity.

It was bound to be vulnerable to a small number of powerful individuals.

That was why they recruited some Transcendents, including Community Moderators.

"It seems they've started to keep us in check too."

They must have started responding according to our expansion.

The Kaiju bastards were as usual and didn't show any special behavior.

"Hmm."

Reports of the enemies' traps, surprise attacks, and organic counterattacks kept coming in.

However.

"If it were just one particularly strong one, I could handle it directly..."

It was not like their base had been clearly revealed.

And Karlstein couldn’t always be stationed in World.

He couldn’t keep coming out directly to handle everything like before forever. If that were the case, he wouldn't have invited these people from the Community.

Unless it was something that can be decided in a short time, the base in World needed to be made to run well even without him.

"Let's increase the scale of support a bit more."

Aria will probably nag at me, but…

It doesn't seem like I can handle it right away.

Still, since this incident will probably use up the lifespan of the Avatar anyway, I should show myself directly at least once.

They must have let their guard down thinking the previous Avatar had disappeared...

I should remind them of the fear they had forgotten.

It should at least buy some time. And YongYong should wake up soon too.

Two days later.

A golden flash bombarded the base where a Sephiroth unit was staying, and they had to recall their fear once again.

Those who barely survived and fled after being swept away en masse trembled in terror.

***Karlstein opened his eyes in the capsule.

[Have you returned?]

It was Aria, who always welcomed him upon his return.

"You know the situation?"

[Yes, I will increase support to the World base.]

"Yeah, thanks."

Karlstein nodded at the immense power he felt in his main body.

Creak- Creak-

Just clenching and unclenching his fist made overwhelming power writhe.

Karlstein closed his eyes.

He tried moving the vast Ether dwelling in his body.

Grand Void Cultivation Sutra...

He tried to move the Ether according to the method of the Grand Void Cultivation Sutra, matching the verses.

Twitch-

"Hmm..."

As expected.

It's subtle.

It doesn't seem to have no effect, but...

It was like stirring with a finger in the middle of a vast ocean.

In other words, the cultivation technique called 'Grand Void Cultivation Sutra' wasn’t enough to handle the Ether contained in his main body.

It is a bit disappointing, but…

Still.

He learned that even the first cultivation technique he learned wasn't without effect, so it could be considered an achievement, couldn't it?

A cultivation technique limited to the Metal Element, following the Avatar’s characteristics.

Moreover, it was just a basic technique that was learned first.

What if he learned a higher-level technique later?

It's chilling.

What if he could freely utilize the infinite Ether sleeping in his body?

After all, even with the rough utilization method of just pouring it out, there were hardly any opponents who could handle it.

...It wouldn't be impossible to subjugate those bastards.

As expected, it won't be that easy, but.

[Preparations for the macro program are complete.]

Karlstein snapped out of his thoughts at Aria's call.

"Already?"

The cultivation macro he entrusted to Aria was not unrelated to 'World'.

In research linked with the Community's Transcendents, 'Ether' was superior to any other energy.

The greatness of Ether.

And the Xianxia cultivation techniques that could move that very Ether.

If they could find the right cultivation technique, they could pass it on to others too.

If that happens, it would be much more advantageous in dealing with the few strong ones in World.

"Have you checked the data?"

[You can consider the first verification complete, though we still need to accumulate a bit more.]

"Haha."

Inhuman Passing of Knowledge? One-Man Inheritance?

Can such a closed system really surpass SF?

Sharing knowledge and information, establishing numerous hypotheses.

Conducting numerous experiments according to each hypothesis and accumulating data.

Extracting better results through sufficiently accumulated data.

And starting again from sharing those results. A system that circulates countless times.

It was a structure where humanity could only become stronger.

"At any rate, I guess I can't even dream of retirement if it’s like this."

Karlstein made a complaint that wasn't really a complaint. Immediately after, he attempted to connect to the Xianxia Avatar.

"Please also prepare a new Avatar for World."

[...It is already in production. Please use it sparingly, Master.]

"Yeah okay, haha."

***-Junior Brother! Junior Brother! Wake up quickly!

-Huh. I clearly sent word in advance that I would visit.

-Kyaaak!

-Get lost!

-What is this?

-There are many objects I have never seen before.

-Truly insolent. How dare he not come to greet me immediately.

-Is it this hard to see the face of the youngest disciple?

Commotion heard in a dream-like state.

-It seems he cannot open his eyes?

-Hmm. There does not seem to be anything particularly wrong.

-There seems to be some problem.

-Wench. Did Teacher know about this?

-...Yes.

-What is this?

-That’s what I'm saying.

-How about taking it if it pleases Senior Brother Fang?

-Hmm. I suppose I can think of it as a gift from the one who will become the youngest disciple.

-Haha. That's not wrong.

-And what's this?

-Oho. It's full of interesting things.

There was quite a commotion.

Geez, can't you keep it down...

Flash-

Karlstein opened his eyes.

Swoosh-

For a moment, Spiritual Power flowed out from his body and swept around.

"??"

Contrary to expectations, the surroundings were quiet.

"Huh?"

The room was empty except for Senior Sister Zhang.

"It doesn't seem to be... a dream, though..."

Various facilities and items placed in the hut for convenience were gone.

"Senior Sister?"

Senior Sister Zhang was hugging her knees in a corner of the dark room with the lights off in the early evening.

"Sniff."

What? Is she crying?

Well... Looking at her condition, it didn't seem like she had been mistreated, but her cheek was swollen red as if she had been slapped.

"Hmm? Are you awake?"

Senior Sister Zhang, looking dejected, wiped her tears and forced a smile.

"What happened?"

"Ah... I'm sorry."

"Huh? No. Just tell me what happened. I think I heard something while half-asleep."

Among Ma Yucheol's disciples, there seems to be one with multiple masters. A disciple with several oh so great teachers.

It was someone called Senior Brother Fang, and apparently his background was not ordinary.

Even Ma Yucheol was being forced to pass on the Qi Refining Pavilion's techniques under such pressure.

"I'm sorry.... I couldn't stop them."

"Huh? Ah.... Well, that much is fine."

I did put the important things in the Storage Pouch anyway.

"But they didn't touch the Storage Pouch, right?"

"That... that would be no different from theft."

What? By my standards, taking the household furniture and taking the Storage Pouch is also robbery, though?

"And didn't you say not just anyone could come to this Metal Spiritual Mountain?"

"That's..."

Apparently, the person backing him is in a position where he can easily obtain a Spirit Plaque that allows passage through Metal Spiritual Mountain.

"Anyway, don't worry about it. Why are you crying?"

Where did the usual spirited Young Lady Zhang go?

"It might be because of me..."

"Hm?"

"Of course, if Master Ma had been here, things wouldn't have gone this far..."

As stated before, Master Ma was holed up in the cultivation chamber doing closed-door cultivation, saying he was researching some items he had received from him.

"Senior Brother Fang must not have heard properly since he just returned today, but it seems you were looked down upon because I was attached to you. And I couldn't say anything about the truth of the person from ancient times because Master had issued a gag order..."

"Uh..."

It was absurd enough that he, the Emperor of the Galactic Empire, had been robbed, but it wasn't easy to understand her words either.

Was it because the culture is different?

There were many behavioral patterns that were incomprehensible.

Not that he particularly wanted to understand or study them.

"Anyway, what they took were just odds and ends, so it's fine."

"...It must have been a fortuitous encounter, though."

"..."

What fortuitous encounter? They were basically just camping equipment sent from the Galactic Empire. Truly mere odds and ends.

At any rate, since not knowing this fact, she seemed to feel guilty.

No, what? It's not like she invited them, nor did she take anything.

"Hmm. But why did Senior Sister just let it happen? Are you weak?"

Young Lady Zhang became even more dejected.

"It's not wrong to say I'm weak, but..."

Young Lady Zhang had trouble opening her mouth. There was also a faint hint of anxiety, wondering if he would despise her like others after hearing it.

There was no way that would happen, though.

Not everything could be conveyed just by words.

"If it's hard to say, you can tell me later."

Karlstein looked around.

They cleaned it out thoroughly.

The massage chair, cooking utensils, daily necessities, etc. were nowhere to be seen.

"Can't you report it or something? They're complete thieves, aren't they? Haha."

Rather than being angry, it was more dumbfounding.

What is this bolt out of the blue?

To think the house would be robbed.

And by a member of their own sect, no less.

Haha.

"U-Umm.... It's probably because we're closer to temporary disciples or trainees, rather than formally admitted disciples..."

"Huh? Wait, didn't they treat me like they would welcome me immediately because of the Heavenly Spiritual Root? Why temporary?"

"Master... said he was entering closed-door cultivation... so he didn't properly process the admission..."

What's with this guy?

Isn't he supposed to take care of his own business?

"Sigh.... Well, let's forget about the lost items. They weren't that important anyway."

It won't even take a minute to refill them, after all.

Ah, of course, I should never forget that bastard's name and what he did.

"So what's the bastard's name?"

"Fang Lunyi."

"Fang Lunyi?"

"He's also a Heavenly Spiritual Root like you."

Heavenly Spiritual Root?

Is that so? He’s a guy with similar talent and backing, huh?
