Solaris had lived for many years. He had overseen struggles of the disciples used to face back in his previous world. So he understood what kinds of trouble would an immortal face. According to Mabaki, immortals transfer their souls to a suitable body after their old body gets old. Thus they can live for a long time. And this is breaking the balance of nature.
Solaris then thought about it and soon came up with an assumption. If he was an immortal who changes his body over and over he would make a place where he could stock all the resources that he would need in his other life. He would make himself a home where no one else could come except him. And then all he needed to do was to go to that place after every successful reincarnation.
There Solaris would store every type of resource, his treasure, clothes, and everything else that he would need after a reincarnation. Solaris regarded this place as home.
Everything that he would need in a lifetime, conveniently arranged in one place. That is the dream of everyone.
That is why Solaris was 100% sure that the immortals of this world too would have someplace like this. Solaris didn't know much about these immortals. What he did know was that if they have been alive for more than 5-6 lifetimes, they would have already made a home somewhere.
Solaris didn't know about the locations of these homes but he did have an idea about how he could come across one…
If there is indeed a home of one of those Immortal guys then that place would be shrouded in mystery. And Solaris just needs some hardcore facts and some research to find such a place. And then he would be able to get his hands on a home. From there he could get any information about the other immortals and their whereabouts.
After all, it was very safe to assume that these immortals must know one another. And he was around 80% sure that they all would know one another. There is also a possibility that in the 'home' the artifact that enables these immortals to transfer their souls would also be present. It would not be easy to find such a place. But Solaris had to try.
…
After the induction, Solaris started training his body as well side by side with meditation. Solaris's body is too skinny. He had some muscle mass but it was not enough. Solaris knew what kind of threat an immortal would be. So to confront an immortal he would need a body that can through any harsh environment. And can go through any terrain without sweating bullets. In short, he needed a war god body.
Daily Solaris would map his meridians and then train his body. He had a goal in his mind that he wanted to achieve. And for that, he was willing to give his 200%. And this was a very good time for Solaris, he was getting very nutritious food in the cafeteria that would be more than enough to enhance his body for now.
And then finally after 4 days of his departure, Solaris was able to map out every meridian of his body. With the mapping process done, Solaris could get started with the real cleansing process…
Mapping meridians was like making an underground passage. He would dig out some impurities of his meridians and then move on. This way he got an idea of where every meridian was and what part it was connected to. But as he had not fully mapped out the meridians, he could cleanse the meridians thoroughly.
When Solaris would be done cleansing he would be able to open some of the meridians nodes. He would not be able to open all of the meridian nodes of his body, as he would need a silver needle for that. But he trusted that considering that he is going to a big school, he would find a way to get his hands on the silver needle. And he could always order it up.
For now, Solaris just needs to increase his strength. Because there is one thing that Solaris could say by certainty, and that is the fact with greater strength, wealth and influence of a person increases.
So on the night of the fourth day, Solaris started using Dragon's Might to increase the strength of his body. He started using the mana in the air and the nutrients from the food to nourish his body. He needed a lot of nutrients if wanted to enhance his body. So from the day 4th day, Solaris had officially become an awakened one. And now he could also be counted in the ranks of the elites.
Based on the booklet that Arnold talked about, Solaris had an idea about the power realms of this world. Like the cultivation world, this world too has different power realms which were very different from each other.
Starting from becoming an awakened one, the power realms of this world are divided into ranks. The ranks of the power realms go from Rank-1 to Rank-30. With Rank-30 being the highest rank and the thing of legends.
After officially becoming an awakened one, a person officially becomes a Rank-1 warrior. And then to go to the next level, one has to increase his/her mana capacity and fighting prowess. And thus like that one ascends to a higher level.
That book contained very little knowledge about the different Ranks and the power that one could wield in that rank. But Solaris was sure that he would be able to get that information when he reaches the school…
