In the books Sol read, as well as what his Master told him, one had to create their own Aether Absorption Technique if they did not belong to a well-established Faction.
It was explained that the fighting for resources was fierce and one had to risk it all to reach further into their cultivation.
There was a clear line between those who were struggling to survive in the cultivation world and those at the top who monopolize all the resources.
The Seven Holy Sects and the Five Great Clans were the top 1% who held all the power, while everyone else struggling at the bottom were the weak 99%.
But, now Sol was being told that was not the case.
'Ah Master, you idiot…'
Under Boy One and the others skeptical looks Sol coughed dryly then asked.
"Could you explain how the outside world is currently on a broad scale?"
"Sure!"
Boy One happily said.
"From your words, it seems you have been getting information from outdated books…"
