when ken wake up , he found himself alone inside a small room . after just a second passed , his head started to hurt a lot as information was passed inside his mind . the room was closed and didnt even have a window but ken could see the scenery of 100 meters around him automatically . after a while , the pain was gone and ken could naturally handle the excessive amount of information effortlessly which would cause the brain of a normal person to fry . ken was amazed by the fresh phenomenon so decided to ask maniac about it .
" maniac, is this power something like divine sense from those novels ?"
" host is correct . this power is the passive ability called divine sense and its range and penetrating force will increase with host's cultivation level in future.
in this lower plane , there are 4 main cultivation levels -
1. body refinement
2. foundation
3. core foundation
4 . tribulation
all the 4 major levels have 3 minor levels before reaching the peak
1. beginner
2. intermediate
3. advance
host has already reached the foundation level peak , so there are only 2 major levels remaining before host can leave this lower plane for a higher one . "
ken calmly digested all the new information for a while . he looked around and noticed that the room where he was in was a small one with only a small bed in it . ken asked maniac and confirmed that he can leave his divine sense on all the time . so ken used it and saw the 100 m radius scenery around him .
ken confirmed that he was inside an old house alone now . he eavesdropped the conversation of few people outside and realised that he was in the capital city Tokyo now . ken decided to wait for the night to leave this place and started to browse the system shop for any useful skills etc for now .
ken was again shocked by the sheer numbers of items that were available for purchase inside the shop . he spent a lot of time to go through them one by one but was starting to feel bored after 3 hours passed . he decided to ask maniac about a solution as he wouldn't waste time in future again for browsing the shop .
" maniac , I want to purchase some items that can be of some use immediately. can you recommend some for me ? "
" host can just tell his requirements anytime and system will provide host the list of items. "
ken cursed his low intelligence as he wasted 3 hours of time when he could have just consulted maniac and problem would be solved quickly. ken decided to rely on system more from now on and started to think about some things that can prove useful now.
ken had confirmed with maniac that he can withdraw any amount of money instantly from his storage whenever he wants , so he decided to clear a doubt about money inside his mind first.
" maniac, do I have to open a new bank account everytime for transactions in future ? I cannot possibly just take out huge amount of cash everytime ..."
" host doesn't have to worry . before host was transferred , system scanned the monetary system of this planet completely and has opened an international bank account for host . host can use it for transactions anytime through commanding system ."
" you know , you are really a life saver maniac .so are there any restrictions on the amount of money for the transaction? "
" host can transfer any amount of money and doesn't have to worry . there will be no problems like regulations , international laws etc . when host reaches higher planes , the main currency in the cultivation world will be spiritual ki stones . host will have unlimited supply of those anytime . "
ken knew about those stones a little from the novels he had read in his free time in the past life . so he understood the huge advantage of such currency too . spiritual stones can be used to haste the absorption of spiritual ki greatly so ken was truly satisfied with his choice of infinite currency as his first wish . he didn't expect such benefits when he chose it though . now he also felt like laughing like the god from before as he understood his feelings a little .
in his past life , ken saw the unfairness of this world with his own eyes daily . that's why he chose unlimited money for his wish because he didnt want to struggle to make money like he was forced to in his past life like others . ken knew that people change after tasting the benefits of money and he didnt want any of that . ken also thought of helping some kind hearted people with money matters as he couldn't do that in his past life and watched the tragic fates of such people due to their inability to earn money .
ken cleared his mind and started feeling the changes inside his body. he could feel the surging power inside his body and the ki inside his cells but for some reason it didnt feel unnatural at all . he could control his power well despite the fact that he didnt even cultivate once till now. ken was delighted by this discovery and thought that this must be another benefit of the system's gift . ken sat in a mediation pose and looked through the information inside his mind about his powers
maniac told him that ken didnt have a need to cultivate mental powers especially like other cultivators in future because of his supreme talent , his mental powers would grow automatically at the best possible pace with his cultivation level . he was told that there were many types of cultivation methods for body , mind etc but ken didnt posses one as his cultivation now was a direct gift from the system . ken could continue cultivating further without any concrete method by instinct but there were many risks involved and the progress would be shit compared to the most basic method .
ken wanted to purchase some methods for cultivation from the shop but maniac told him that the first monthly item was the supreme tier cultivation methods . ken was confused at first but maniac cleared his doubts after telling him that the first monthly item was predetermined and the next ones would be chosen randomly everytime. ken didnt bother complaining and was already contented with the best possible cultivation methods that were available .
time had passed and it was now 7 pm . ken saw with his divine sense that the street outside was empty so decided to leave this old house and start his new journey ..
