"So that why the seeds ain't growing, there isn't any code about reproduction growth"
Sun Zhen had decided to use the whole night to create new items from what he gathered today.
First was the seed, he had added new lines and modified it better than the last one.
The seed could grow into a tree less than 2 weeks and he limited the tree to only 3 meters tall so that he could avoid attention.
"That should be good, now the potions"
He now had more than 50+ potions inside his database, plus the Foundation Strengthening which he wanted to drink more but he had an idea.
"This seems crueler than last time but I need you"
He then created another Doll (Old code) in order to test all kind of potions and the effects.
After 2 hours of testing, he used all the potions and had to replace another Doll because the first one broke down.
(I don't want to focus too much on how he did with his experiment, any info related to this will bring out in later chapters)
"The last one on the list is FS (Foundation Strengthening), let see how much can you take"
With the Block, he created 2 FS potions in glass bottles then he poured the first potion into the Doll. The result was the same as Sun Zhen which wasn't surprised.
"The second one" After pouring the 2nd potion, the Doll muscles got more muscular and bulkier than last time.
"The static show signs of the increase in muscles mass more than 3x times"
As he checked the static more, he heard a weird noise coming from the Doll so he looked up and saw blood coming out from the mouth.
Worse, he even saw bones sticking out of the chest and other parts of the body.
"Why is this happening?" Sun Zhen started to check earlier stat.
The problem was found and the reason was that the muscles were crushing the bones when they got enlarged.
The bones then got slapped and stabbed into the organs and muscles which killed the Doll.
"There must be a way to avoid this" After finding what he wanted, he deleted the Doll.
With his novels logic, he soon found the problem.
"How the potion work? what makes the potions change our body"
Sun Zhen had noticed that the potion was just a type of liquid yet they could dramatically modify the body.
"In xianxia novels, they mostly talk about pills, not potions and never show how it changed or help the body. The authors must have decided to scrap the process to save the explaining parts"
Sun Zhen decided to go deeper into the subject by experimenting more.
"Recovery potion is the best choice right now" The recovery potion worked as a healing potion, it would heal small injuries by applying it on the skins.
After that, he prepared a Doll and a knife then he used the knife to cut its hand.
The opening wound started bleeding after the cut so he applied the potion onto the wound and watched it healed.
In 3 minutes, the wound closed which indicated that it was healed.
"It was like the missing tissue started growing back and attached to each other to heal the wound"
He did that again but this time he would use the Block to check.
"Those code lines!!" The lines from the potion slowly changed into tissue code which astonished him.
Code self-modification and self-code (It is a real thing) was on another level in coding, he had also made one of when he was the programmer inside the company but he never used it on Command Block because there wasn't any use for it.
"Haha, I am really want to cry right now...How can I forget such thing?"
With this forgotten technique, he can shorten his time on coding while it could also automatically coding for him after he gave the command.
"I need to study more about potion before I can understand how they work"
Sun Zhen decided to drop the potion project and focus on his old technique.
---
"Will this work?" He had programmed a command line to activate self-coding in his mind.
[Water Sword] He thought and at the same time, code lines appeared in his mind which it worked as expected.
Less than 5 seconds, a sword made out of water appeared in his hand.
It was a short sword and it was super light to use (It is water).
"Let see how sharp" He swung the sword down on the table and it chopped it in half. The quality of the sword was pretty good.
"This thing only cost me about 28 code lines to code out in seconds which meant that the longer the lines are, the longer it takes to code out"
He remembered that when he broke the 1st Seal, he entered a state that he could code without the self-coding, it was even faster and he was sure it coded more than 80 lines in 2 seconds.
"Training mind coding is a must for long term future in this world. I know someday I can go up against people higher stage than me"
With all the time he got, he got all night to code commands of all types he wanted

*Unknown time*
"Are you a hero?" A little girl with a pure white dress asked a shirtless man in the desert.
"No" he looked like a homeless man yet his body and tone spoke like the most fearless warrior the world could offer.
"Then why did you save those people from the monster" The girl walked around the man to see how many scars on his body.
"...Because they needed help"
"Isn't that heroic act?"
"A hero is someone that people look up to, someone that will help people when they need, someone that willing to sacrifice for a better world... Sadly, I am not a hero, I am just a man with so many blood on my hands and saving a few hundred people won't make my sin fade away"
"How about this? Become my Hero"
"Huh?! Little girl, ain't I just tell you that I am not a Hero"
"Who cares? You are my Hero, not everyone hero"
"And why do you need me to become your Hero, a fallen knight who killed millions of people"
"Because I need help"
"...you need help?!"
"Yes"
"Ha..Ha..hahaha" The man laughed so hard that his laughing sound echoed through the desert.
"Is that a yes?"
"HAHA...kid, you are funny...SURE, I will be your hero"
He then knelt down and put his right hand on his chest.
"I swear in the name of my ancestor, I will be your knight..."
"No, I don't want a knight. I want a hero so drop the knight ceremony...A pinky swear is enough"
"A pinky swear? What is that?"
"Let me show you"
She grabbed his hand and stuck out her pinky which he also followed then they did a pinky swear.
"That's it?... So ordinary"
"But that is a sign of a friendship, will you swear that you will be my Hero"
"I swear that I will your Hero as long as you need me to" he chuckled a bit.
After they were done with the swear, the girl then asked him to follow her so he picked up his rusted sword and left with her.
"I am your Hero now, what am I suppose to do as a Hero to you" He asked.
She stopped and slowly turned back at him with a beautiful smile on her face.
"Not yet...my Hero"

"It's her voice again" Sun Zhen woke up after hearing her voice.
It was still early in the morning but he felt that he didn't need to sleep more and went to change clothes.
After that, he went out and breath fresh air in the morning while trying to remember the dream he had.
"The dream seems blur after I woke up" He could only remember some words like Knight, Little Girl,... But they didn't have any meaning to him.
"Maybe future will tell" There were so many mysteries that he couldn't solve but like every novel he read, time will tell you later.

*Training Ground* (3 hours later)
"There is indeed some improvement but you still can't hold the 2 Qi balls properly" First Elder sat on his chair while teaching how to control the Qi ball as long as possible.
"And we are finished today, come back tomorrow for another training"
"Laoshi, when will I be ready to bring out my Qi and use it?" It was only 2 days after became a Juqi but he was very impatient.
"Depend on your skills, maybe a month or a year but I am sure you will fully control Qi when the time come"
"...Thank, Laoshi"
He left the training ground while thinking about how to training Qi with the Block.
When he got out of the cube, he heard someone called him but it wasn't Xiao Ying.
"Sun Zhen, my name is Xiao ____, Mid stage Juqi, Senior class and I am here to challenge you for your disciple title of First Elder"
"I am sorry, what did you say?" Sun Zhen asked to make sure he heard right.
"I am here to challenge you"
Confused, Sun Zhen asked how did he get the idea to challenge him, a lower stage and only learning about Qi.
The guy wasn't angry about that and answered him. Turn out, there was a rule for Elder's disciples and it was like a rule to help the disciples trained while also gave the other students the chance to become a disciple of the Elders.
The rule was simple, you could challenge the disciples for the title and if you win, you got the title but if you lose, you would be stripped of right into the Art library for half a year.
Half a year without access to the Art library meant half a year without much improvement so most students didn't want to do the challenge.
The reward and risk for the challenge must be equal to make sure that students won't recklessly challenge the disciples all the time.
Sun Zhen was a perfect target to take from, he was only a Juqi for 2 days and no training in Qi. There wasn't any rule to protect him and no one saw that coming because there wasn't any Elder take a student from early Juqi class to become their disciples.
"There isn't any No answer for the challenge so I can only take it...But this is an opportunity to test my Commands so I may as well play with him" Sun Zhen thought
"I accept"
"Great. Everyone, please step back and let us prepare for the battle" The guy was smirking as he thought he got an easy win.
Somewhere not too far away, First Elder and Patriarch were drinking tea in a room that had a full view of the field.
"Are you sure that he prepares for this" Xiao Yun asked.
"He has to, it will improve him and let him has some experience in fighting" First Elder just finished his cup
"What if he loses?"
"He will not lose to some kid that never had a fighting experience in the wild even if he had mastered Qi control"
"I hope you are right"
------
"Are you ready Sun Zhen"
"I am ready as you are, bring it"
The battle started with the guy (challenger) sprinted at Sun Zhen, he thought that a fast attack could end the battle but he was wrong because he never met a person like Sun Zhen before.
As soon as the guy got near Sun Zhen, he used a command line.
[Jelly Shield]
Suddenly something formed around Sun Zhen's left hand and a colorful shield appeared which blocked the attack and it pushed the guy back by 5 feet away.
"What the hell" The guy screamed.
At the same time, Elder and Patriarch stood up while focusing on the shield in Sun Zhen's hand.
"I feel no Qi when he did that. Do you feel anything?" Xiao Yun said.
"No, nothing at all. So this is his secret, I really impress" First Elder was sure that Sun Zhen was the right candidate for his disciple.
The people around the field were also shocked to see Sun Zhen brought out a weird thing.
"Hey, Xiao ____" Sun Zhen spoke to his opponent.
"Huh?" the guy was stunned a bit but regained his focus when he heard Sun Zhen.
"Come here and show me your so called the strength of the Senior class"
Sun Zhen used his middle finger which the guy didn't know what it was but he felt insulted for some reason.
"Go die, Sun Zhen"
"Go F*** yourself"
The battle officially started and began the first clash between Sun Zhen and the Seniors
