"Young master, the carriage is ready."
Inside the tent, young master Gao opened his eyes from meditation.
This time, his skin, his complexion, and even his muscles have changed.
It's healthy even though he still looked a little thin.
"I'll come."
Young master Gao replied in a calm voice.
The bandit outside was surprised by his tone and a little sweat poured on the bandit's forehead.
"Young master, do you need more fruits along the way?"
Young master Gao began fixing his clothing.
"Do so. Give me everything. I like the taste of it."
He casually said with a nonchalant voice while looking at a system screen in front of him.
Ding!
「 Scanning unknown energy-matter. 」
「 Estimated time: 1 hour and 13 minutes and 34 seconds. 」
Young master Gao was a little impatient but now he had to wait.
He did not expect that the fruit that was given to him earlier would have a massive amount of Mana's concentration.
This fruit allowed him to step into the path of 1rst tier of apprentice wizardry.
In the cultivation game world, he did not expect that he would become a wizard!
'I did not expect this. A fruit with a massive amount of Mana in the cultivation world. How will the system explain this?'
'I did not expect it! It seems I need to get more of it if I want to improve fast!'
Young master Gao checked out his hands.
'I've become stronger and I feel like I can crush metal with my own hands.'
'Is this an apprentice wizard? What would happen if I became a full-fledged first-stage wizard?'
Young master Gao put it all at the back of his head.
He decided to wait for the game system to scan it, so he quickly got up and went outside.
Outside, young master Gao is not surprised that only a few low-level bandit group members are only on the outside.
Young master Gao eyed one of them to come near him, which one of them did.
"Young master?"
Young master Gao commanded him to get paper and a pen with ink.
Gao Lao knew that these bandits are civilized and, of course, they carry those things to raid whenever they encounter a strong mortal village they come across for negotiation.
The low-level bandit immediately did as young master Gao told him to and when the time, young master Gao reached the carriage.
The low-level bandit came back with a pen and scroll.
"You can leave."
The bandit was taken aback; he feels like the young master did not change
However, there was something different or something was off.
'Maybe I'm thinking too much.'
The bandit thought as he quietly left and went on on their journey towards their target village.
Inside another massive carriage, a little petite girl and a scrawny guy were talking to a guy that young master Gao commanded earlier.
"Uncle, do you think he would notice?"
Feyfey was looking at his uncle with a worried look.
Even if the young master sent a letter, the plans would still be on their way and nothing will change.
However, Feyfey couldn't help but feel that something wrong was going to happen.
"Impossible. If he found anything about our plan, he would still be powerless, especially right now that he was crippled by that country bumpkin."
"Plus, he wouldn't have accepted those spiritual fruits that the creature of the mountain wanted."
The scrawny man patted Feyfey, who was worrying too much, and smiled at her.
"Don't worry, with your uncle here..."
"Everything will be smooth. I think we might even need to thank that country bumpkin that crippled him, or our plan wouldn't be this easy."
...
An hour and ten seconds had passed.
Young master Gao was oblivious to what they were talking about or even if he knew, he also wouldn't care about it.
"It's about to be complete. I hope that it works."
Young master Gao had a pen-like feather with ink on it.
He is drawing complicated drawings on a scroll.
"I studied this for five years, a basic defense and offense ability of apprentice wizards and full-fledged wizards."
"If it fails this time, then it would be better to bury my head on the ground."
In the real world, the magical fantasy world, young master Gao was tired of the bullshit that's always not going his way.
Experiencing things that don't go the way he wanted, this time.
No matter how confident he is, he is still feeling bad that something might happen that he can't control due to his unpleasant experiences.
Swoosh!
A smile reappears on young master Gao's face.
"Finally, nothing changed and nothing happened."
Suddenly, all the fruits containing concentrated mana were absorbed by the complicated magic circles the scroll that the young master used.
To young master Gao, it was a refreshing chilly breeze after torture earlier, so he happily accepted it.
"My offense and defense were complete. At least now I can finally take good care of myself."
Right now, flashes of magic circles reappear surrounding him.
His very own invention needed an outrageous amount of concentrated mana.
If it weren't for this plentiful fruit, young master Gao was certain that he would ultimately fail.
While young master Gao was savoring the fruit of his labor, the system rang in his head.
Ding!
「 New energy matter scanned. 」
「 The user discovered an unknown energy called Heavenly Origin matter. 」
'Heavenly Origin Matter? The mana?'
Young master Gao wondered.
'I am sure that it is Mana.'
'Plus, in the novel, I can't remember, recall or read anything about the power that contains Heavenly Origin Matter...'
'This is new to me and also, according to the novel, the Heavenly Dao is the only thing that I am sure of.'
Ding!
「 The user discovered the Heavenly Origin matter or the power of the elemental forces of nature embodied in nature. 」
Young master Gao suddenly felt his eyesight, muscles, brain, skin, and spirit strengthened for some unknown reason.
Ding!
「 Heavenly Origin Realm is a force of nature and the user calls it Mana. Cultivators cannot sense it because they are using a different kind of method, a human spirit force. 」
「 Where the cultivators would extract any concentrated Heavenly Origin realm into a diluted spirit. Thus, making it hostile against cultivators and weakening them. 」
「 Spiritual Power is cultivators human power created to resist the pressure of Mana or Heavenly Origin matter. 」
「 Cultivation game Universe had stronger Mana because no living things wields it so any wielder of it can suppress the majority who uses Spiritual Powers. 」
'Sh*t! What does it mean?'
Young master Gao was shocked by the revelation.
He could roughly understand, and according to him, it's like the cultivators were in the wrong for absorbing the Mana by destroying it and converting it into spiritual force.
Ding!
「 As the first person to discover the Heavenly Origin Matter or Mana, the user became loved by all of heaven's will. 」
「 All kinds of external mind realms like the spirit realm state would be nullified by the Heaven Origin realm user's presence. 」
「 Human limit shackles are loosened in the user. 」
「 All stats: +5%. 」
Young master Gao never thought a secret like this would be discovered by him.
'What?'
Young master Gao was shocked by the given statistics. Speed, strength, agility, reaction, attack speed, elemental defense, physical defense, etc.
'If it was only plus five, I would be happy already, but the thing is that it gave me five percent!'
'It means if I reached a higher level, it would also upgrade. I never expected this to happen. No one uses Mana in this realm?'
Out of nowhere, a sound interrupted young master Gao's thoughts.
BOOARRRKK!!
