Since the day he visited the Martial Arts Pavilion, he immediately entered a rigorous meditative state after seeing through the indifference and brutality of the cultivation world according to him.
The fresh memory of how he nearly fainted from Elder Shen's Demi Immortal avatar's aura field pressurized him even further to change his manner of reasoning, till he eventually set a goal for himself.
He would definitely strive to be twice as strong as this Elder Shen, if possible he would become an Emperor since that was the peak of the present Wu Shui Empire.
For the past three days, he was training a new skill and trying to resonate with the Mortal Soul even further as a Mortal General.
The Mortal Soul was a separate consciousness but owned and linked to one source which was naturally its possessor. It was true the adept cultivation of it that one could gain the ability to create avatars.
