Chereads / Sect Master of the Hidden World / Chapter 2 - Binding with the 'Sect System'

Chapter 2 - Binding with the 'Sect System'

Lin Shu, an otaku who's obsess on reading novels unexpectedly, he died after reading too much novels without breaks nor sleep. His obsessiveness caused his soul to traverse on an unknown planet.

...

"Ugh!" Looking around his unfamiliar surroundings, Lin Shu found himself in a rainforest. His clothes were ragged, there are dirt on his body and that smell of nature somehow relaxed his current mind state. At first, he thought he was dreaming. But after countless pinches on his face. The feelings were surreal that he even thought he was going crazy at the moment.

5 Minutes later. He stood up and looked at his surroundings.

Beep!

[Now binding with the host]

...

[Binding completed!]

Eh?

What?

What's happening?

"Wait a second!"

"This sound." After verifying all the possibilities he could think off. He shouted: "System!"

Ding!

["Hello master!]

"Is this real!? Is this what they called system on those novels?"

[Yes master.]

"OMG!"

"Wait, what kind of system are you? And where the f*ck am I?"

With that said, a blue light of curtain filled with words of information appeared before his eyes.

[Sect Master System(SMS)]

[Level: 1(0/500XP)]

[Disciples: 0]

[Multiplier: 1x]

[Points: 0]

[Cultivation: Mortal]

[Inventory: Novice Package]

[Location: Dark Forest]

"Sect Master System? Can you be more specific, System?"

[Sect Master System, as the name implies, gives the host the status of a Sect Master. The Sect Master System allows the host to accept disciples in which in return gives you 'Multipliers' on the host's 'Hidden World' which could be obtained by opening the Novice Package. The 'Multipliers' multiplies the amount of aura the Hidden World releases. The 'Multiplier' is based on the average amount of aura in the outside world.]

[For example, if the host's multiplier is 10x, the aura in the Hidden World is 10x higher than the outside world.]

[For the Points, the host can obtain it by making milestone or by completing a quest. This points can then be used when the host's level is 3.]

[On the other hand, experience can also be obtained the same way as Points. But also whenever a disciple kills an opposing faction. Such as beasts, demons, and etc.]

"Interesting. So what you're saying is that if I happen to accept, let's say 1,000 disciples, the aura in that Hidden World is now 1,000x higher than the outside world?!"

[Exactly, the host.]

Subconsciously nodding, Lin Shu browsed the system he used to longed for in his previous life. Looking around the interface, his eyes focused on an Exquisite logo of a Gift Box in which upon clicking, pops up the word 'Novice Package'.

Upon clicking, he suddenly saw some sort of line appeared out of thin air in front of him. And when he looked closely, this line suddenly expanded, slowly turning into an arch-shaped light.

[Received a 100x Multiplier]]

[Received a Guardian Sword]

Ignoring the pop-ups, he focused on what was happening in front of him.

...

After a few seconds, the originally arch-shaped thing which is made out of white light suddenly dimmed and slowly formed into a two-door arch entrance which automatically opened by itself, and inside, you can see some sort of a Exquisitely designed temple made with unknown material which frequently releases some light.

Holding his chin, he said: "Presumably, this should be the entrance to the Hidden World?"

Slowly walking in front of the door. He contemplated for a bit before gritting his teeth and taking a foot inside.

When he finally set foot completely, what greeted him was a vast mountain, and on top of that mountain was the temple he previously saw before he went inside the 'Hidden World'.

Taking a look around his surroundings, a few kilometres away, there are fog that fully blocked the vision ahead. He noticed that these fog formed a circular shape which takes the entrance as it's centre piece.

"This should be what you called a map border from games huh?"

...

Taking a one step at a time, he finally arrived on top of the mountain which took him more than 30 minutes of continuous climbing.

"Thankfully my body was not my original one, if it is I won't probably last for more than a minute of vigorous climbing." He said while panting.

Finally walking inside of the temple, nothing apparently happened which somewhat made him confused.

"Now what?"

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a misty white fog appeared on the centre of the temple which startled him a bit.

"What the fuck?" He subconsciously cussed.

Out of curiosity, he tried to touch the fog, but nothing happened.

But!

When he took a deep breath, he suddenly felt that the fatigue from climbing the mountain slowly dissipated.

"This?!

...

"HOLY SHIT!"

"Is this what you call an aura from those novels which accelerates the cultivation time with less the effort?!" After jumping a few times to celebrate, he finally sat cross-legged and started to meditate.

An hour of meditation later...

Swish!!

A thin layer of aura enveloped Lin Shu's whole body.

[Congratulations to the host for getting rid of the shackled of a regular human being.]

Feeling the power inside his body, he tried punching out.

Swish...

Like the sound when a professional badminton player swinging his racket wildly in the air.

"Fuck! So this is what it feels like to cultivate!"

Holding his chin, he said: "But why do I feel that my cultivation is slower, isn't 100x already good enough?"

Ding!

{Extra Notes: The host can dedicate the aura multiplier to materialize a magic stone.]

'Magic Stone?'

[Magic Stone are stones filled with aura, these stones are then classified into Low, Middle, High, Superior, Supreme, and so on. Magic Stones are hard currency in this universe.]

'But how do I make these stones?'

Under the guidance of the system, Lin Shu figured out how to do it.

After he clicked a certain button, a menu appeared in front of him.

[Multiplier: 100x]

[Low-Tiered Magic Stone - 300/min (100%)] -- [0.33x Multiplier(1/min)]

[Middle-Tiered Magic Stone - 0/min (0%)] -- [33x Multiplier(1/min)]

...

Suddenly, a translucent blue stone continuously appeared out of thin air which replaced the originally spewing misty white fog.

Picking up one of them it was 2.5 inch in diameter, he felt that the moment he held it, vigorous amounts of aura poured into the tips of the fingers that held the stone.

Seeing the continuously spewing Magic Stones in thin air, some were pointy, some were round, some has different shapes and sizes. In short, they have their own uniqueness, but the aura inside each of them is the same.

Yet again, he sat cross-legged in front of the Magic Stone that was slowly piling up in front of him.

Without him knowing it, 5 hours went by rather quickly...

Swish!!!!

A huge aura that covers for at least tens of meters in diameter enveloped Lin Shu fully.

Body Refinement Level 9!

Suddenly, the huge aura the enveloped him slowly condensed which eventually thickened around him.
