*some time in the morning
*
Keishuke woke up with a new sense of self, everything felt clear, his energy higher than he ever felt before and it circulated faster around his body, he felt like he could break a wall With a punch, well, if he used his True Qi
"Holly shit, I'm finally a real cultivator, I can feel the true Qi in me. I'll try it out when I'm not inside my house. So like, did my lifespan increase? That's usually how it happens when you breakthrough to another realm"
[notice: your lifespan has increased by 200 years]
[congratulations on the successful breakthrough. Your current realm is Early Foundation establishment, from now on realms will be split into 3 stages, early, mid, and late. Nurture your foundation through training and Qi and you'll be ready to go to the next realm in no time. The next few realms after foundation establishment are Martial body, Battle king body, Heavenly body and you guessed it, Golden core]
[Notice: You can use your Divine consciousness to look into oneself as well as one's surroundings up to a limited area, this will increase as your soul grows]
Before Kei could only look into himself but now he could use his Divine consciousness to probe into his surroundings
[Notice: Your spiritual sea is now open, take a look with your divine consciousness]
Kei ponders for a second on how to use his divine consciousness to view his spiritual sea, but after focusing his mind onto his divine sea it came to him naturally
The look inside his spiritual sea was breathtaking, he watched in awe the vastness and beautiful blue colour of his spiritual sea
"Wow, this is prettier than even the earth's seas, I forgot what the use for a spiritual sea has..."
[The spiritual sea is the space that holds a martial artist's spirit essence and soul. It is the very core of one's being, without it a person would be no different than a vegetable.
In truth, this 'sea' is more like a miniature dimension. As one goes further down the martial road, their spiritual sea would become something akin to a tiny universe, it is a sea of thought.
It is found on the brain, where the soul resides. The spiritual sea depends on the brain to exist.]
"all that is cool and all but, it feels like I'm going too fast, am I supposed to be advancing so quickly?"
[well in fact you are advancing fast, the basic breathing technique is perfect for the initial stages of cultivation, it kind of skips some steps other cultivators have to take with no adverse effects, but, that's all the cheats you get, now you'll be like everyone else, on that note]
[reward has been granted: True Breathing technique, breathe the universe : This technique is the best technique to cultivate through every future cultivation realm. Truthfully now is where your true cultivation journey begins, as a true immortal cultivator. (not immortal yet but your lifespan has exponentially increased)]
[reward has been granted: Soul expansion technique. This technique nurtures the soul it will make it stronger and the divine consciousness will also expand, for example the stronger your soul gets the stronger your divine consciousness gets. For ENOTHER example, if you can view up to 25 metres with your divine consciousness if you train your spirit you will expand it more, like 50 metres]
"... I get it stop explaining, let's see how far my divine consciousness can see, wow its about 25 metres.. Did you have a lucky guess? Wow, I always dreamed to have an ability to see 360 degrees around me, I thought that such an ability is vital to fighting... Not that I have fought much before. Damn its a little draining to use My Divine consciousness "
Keisuke then decided it was time to test his True Qi and how much stronger he had gotten, now that his cultivation had stabilised through the time he was passed out it was the perfect time to try out his new abilities
"I'll grab something to eat and head out"
Keishuke thought out loud
~step step step~
Keisuke went slowly down the stairs and he saw his mother watching the news, something peculiar he himself had seen before was on the TV
There, on the news, were the two goblins he had killed
Reporter from Tv- {These creatures were found dead yesterday with signs of having fought someone or 'something'. Scientists say these are like no creature on earth, the DNA doesn't match with any animal, could these be... Aliens!?}
Kei witnessed a dark look in his mother's eyes as she saw the news on TV, one he had never seen before
"son."
His mother said with a cold voice
"yes mother?"
Kei said in a questioning tone
"it seems that something has come up, mother will have to go on a business trip"
She proclaimed
"this son of yours will be alright by himself, good luck on your business trip!"
He comforted her
"Stay safe son"
She was worried about leaving her son alone, but she had much more urgent business to take care of, what could possibly happen even if he was left alone anyway?
"Mother I'll be going out for a while"
Keisuke still had to rest out his newfound strength
"Stay safe son"
*at the abandoned building
*
Keishuke first tried his agility, he gathered Qi around his legs and..
~bzioum~
Keisuke swiftly crossed the entirety of the abandoned building in a few seconds, it wasn't big, but it wasn't small either, he had truly passed the human limits, the true Qi surrounding his legs was transparent
"Holy.. Using true Qi with my eclipse steps is overpowered, especially since my physical ability is now leagues above what it previously was"
And finally strength
'I wonder if I can actually break a wall'
"ah this will do"
Keisuke proclaimed as he found the perfect wall in the abandoned building, it was a wall disconnected from the rest of the walls, Kei did not know what the reason behind the lonely wall was, but he didn't care
"Here goes nothing"
~huaaaaaaa!~
Keishuke shouted as he used the Basic fist technique with true Qi for the first time, the true Qi surrounding his fists had a red glow
~boom!~
Like a small explosion his fist ruptured the stone and it crumbled to pieces
~crumble~
"Yeah, this will take some time getting used to"
[WARNING WARNING]
[ANOMALOUS SUMMONING MAGIC DETECTED]
"Shit."
More enemies were fast approaching Keisuke, how will this situation progress? I wonder
* To be continued

Authors note:A Divine consciousness is really useful, you can scout your surroundings(if your soul is strong enough) and it can detect another cultivator using his own divine consciousness, but if the divine consciousness of one is high enough it can avoid being detected by lower divine consciousnesses
Also it takes energy maintaining a divine consciousness, untrained cultivators can't keep it for long
