Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: spirituality gem (2)

- to be honest, even I feel quite envious of you, a spirituality gem is extremely rare, I myself have only found a single gem, well found isn't the right word, more like I was given it-

-The reason why these things are so rare is because of their effects. They help you to recognize and become one with your true self, to become enlightened or to be fulfilled with yourself as a human- (or as any other race which can achieve spirituality)

- Managing to recognize your true self can only be accomplished by experiencing millions, or even billions of different scenarios which hold significance to oneself-

- But for some people, this can be easy to achieve, they might just stumble across their true selves-

- The spirituality gem allows you to start to recognize your true self, albeit only by a small margin-

- This will also eventually help you in the long run to prevent mental demons from blocking your cultivation and also allow you to comptehend true spirituality -

- I have only ever see 2 people who managed to grasp true spirituality, even then they didn't have too deep of an understanding of their spirituality, these two people were akin to gods, they were basically unrivaled by anyone except for other who had also comprehended true spirituality-

- But this point is very far away so you shouldn't worry about it until you need to-

- All you need to do to activate it is to consume it whole- ( the gem is only a couple centimetres long and wide)

" Wait, I have so many questions"

" What is this spirituality you talk of, how do I recognize my 'true self' " Richie asked the system

- That's why the spirituality gem is so important, I don't know how to make you recognize your true self, no one does-

" Well, I guess I should just swallow it, it doesn't seem like you have the answers to my questions anyway"

Richie then carefully placed the gem into his mouth ( After careful pulling it out of the wall).

He then swallowed it in one gulp.

Richie's conscious was then pulled to a place he recognized far too well, The Hong clan.

It was the day when Richie ran off into the forest, only to be captured a few days later.

His consciousness seemed to be looking down on the Hong clan, it was frozen in time, but then time started to flow again, except it was fast forwarded. The time flowed to the point at which Richie ran off into the woods that day, before time decelerated to the a normal speed.

Richie watched as his father was fighting Alyssa's father, unbeknownst to him, tears started coming out of his eyes, back in the 'main body'

Finally he got to the point at which his father sacrificed his mortal body to kill Alyssa's father.

He saw his father's body disintegrating into nothingness, but he also saw his father's soul come out of his body, he followed the soul, well, he didn't, the spirituality gem, which was floating just a couple metres in front of him followed his father's soul, his consciousness was merely dragged along.

Though it didn't seem like his father's soul was controlling its movement, it felt robotic, forced kind of, like it was being dragged.

Time then sped up as Richie watched his father's soul, in like 10,000 times speed traveled through the galaxy, time then slowed down once again as his father's soul stopped before what could only be described as a fairytale castle, the typical villain's castle.

His father's soul went into that castle.

What he saw next shocked him to the bone.

There were rows upon rows of gages full of human souls, all being tortured in one way or another.

Mark's soul had just entered the building when a blurry shadowy figure, it grabbed Mark's soul with its slender claws and muttered somthing in an unintelligible language.

Mark's soul then flew out to a cage which was filled with fire, the cage door opened, Mark's soul seemed to have been thrown in by an invisible entity.

The gates shut

Richie's mother was also I'm there, her soul, like all souls depicted her face, except her face was lifeless and weak.

Richie knew that in another couple of years, his father would be like that too.

However his mothers soul seemed to notice him, the light of hope filled her eyes as her, for lack of a better word, soul mouth moved, it mouthed 'help. me'.

Richie could basically feel the desperation in his mother, he new what he had to do.

He would find his mother and his father, he would free them and he would KILL THE EVER LOVING HELL OUT OF WHO IMPRISONED THEM.

The spirituality gem in font of him shattered completely, Richie felt his consciousness being dragged away from his parents.

" No, I want to stay"

*Vhwoom*

Richie's soul was now back in his original body, his cultivation started to rise, first at a slow pace, them fast, all the way until Richie reached the very peak of the Fist realm.

Richie's cultivation needed Richie's permission to advance any further, the rampaging qi in his body however did not calm down. All Richie needed to do to advance to the second realm and then some was to allow the breakthrough to happen.

Richie was once again on the floor, but this time he had lost consciousness, the system didn't see what the spirituality gem showed Richie.

But it had an idea after seeing Richie's cultivation soar.

- So you have found one of your many purposes, Host...
