Kai spent the next month on a quest to gain more insight into his soul. He also wanted to get a closer look at human bodies. Yet, he found that the attempt only left him with bitterness. He felt that his efforts were in vain, up at empty air.
His soul has no special qualities. But, it is exceptionally strong as a cultivator in the supernatural realm. This strength is good for awakening his talent in the awakening realm. A stronger soul means stronger talent. Initially, he believed that there was some sort of cheat or unique aspect related to his soul.
However, it is not what he first thought. But, having a strong soul is better than having nothing. It has provided him with valuable insight for his personal growth.
His soul's strength lets him explore his inner being. It also lets him perceive and locate his inside body. Kai's parents have even verified this by examining his soul. They confirmed his suspicion that he had an inherently powerful soul since birth.
He attributes his soul's strength to reincarnation. It has had two lifetimes, which made it strong.
Kai didn't gain anything from the research on the human body. He had no starting points. The people here are different from those on Earth. He can only identify the vital parts that are the same. He does not know how the nervous system functions or the location of the meridians. Yet, he decided to keep studying. He also asked his father for books on the human body. His father assured Kai that he would get them for him from the sect.
Since discovering the existence of his soul, Kai has been eager to cultivate it. He even asked his parents for guidance. But, they didn't have a soul cultivation technique. Such techniques are typically passed down within families and are closely guarded secrets. Outsiders are not permitted to learn them, and this rule applies to the sect as well. Only core members have access to these techniques.
This realization highlighted the significance of having a strong background as a cultivator. Although Kai felt disappointed, he didn't allow it to discourage him. Instead, he began exploring alternative solutions. Drawing inspiration from the numerous novels that he had read and the anime he had watched, Kai pondered the possibility of creating his technique. However, he can only pursue this endeavor once he starts a cultivation journey. In the meantime, he must use his time well. He should focus on studying the human body and other relevant subjects.
"Mom, what is the law you choose to comprehend in the divine realm?" Kai asked, his expression was also serious.
"Why are you asking, baby? Do you have any weird ideas?" Riya questioned, since doesn't usually see a serious look on Kai's face.
"No, Mom, but it is very important to my future,"
"Well, I chose to comprehend the illusion as my main dao." Riya replied, she still didn't believe what Kai said.
Upon entering the divine realm, the cultivators can comprehend as many laws or dao they wish. But they can only choose one as their main or core, which would be related to the domain formation in the saint realm.
*HA HA HA*
After hearing her reply, Kai felt overjoyed and started shouting in joy.
"Kai, what happened? Why are laughing?" Riya asked, startled by his sudden act.
"No, mom." Kai scratched his head and said while hiding his embarrassment "I'm just happy after hearing your main law."
"Why are you happy about my law?"Riya looked at him doubtfully.
"Listen to my idea, Mom."Kai took a deep breath and said seriously " I want you to use your illusion on me, so that I can gain experience in the illusion."
Riya was totally baffled by his answer "Baby, you will have to face consequences if you did this."
"Mom, this is the idea I came up with for soul cultivation. We don't have any technique for soul cultivation. So, I was thinking about experiencing illusions to grow my mental resistance. When my mental resistance grows enough, the soul can grow," Kai explained.
His reincarnation is the reason this idea has become possible. Since his second birth can make his soul stronger, can he make his soul stronger through reincarnation? But he will go insane after some reincarnation.
From this, we can conclude that this Will sets the upper limit of the soul. So Kai decided to make his mentality or his Will stronger, and the growth of his soul will be almost negligible since it isn't an authentic method. But it can make his Will stronger in the process.
"Okay, but I need to ask your father," Riya looked at Kai for a moment and agreed after seeing his desire and passion.
Then the next day, both of his parents discussed Kai's decision. His father agreed because of Kai's determination. So because of that, Riya also had to agree, as she could not hinder the dream of her child.
"Kai, I accept your decision." Alex said, but he imposed some restriction "But, there is a condition. If you don't agree, I cannot allow it."
"Okay, Father, tell me what the condition is?" Kai agreed without hesitation as he knew his parents wouldn't harm him.
"Well, you always need to practice near your mother, and you can't do anything without her permission." Alex said sternly.
"Is it the only condition?" Kai looked at his father in surprise, because this wasn't even a condition.
"Yeah, even though it is an illusion, if you are not careful, you will die,"
What he heard startled Kai; at first, he thought it was an illusion, but from his father's expression, he could tell it was indeed serious, and even an illusion could cause harm.
"But you don't need to worry since your mother can take care of you if any problem occurs," Alex reassured by patting his shoulder with a smile.
Kai felt relieved that he didn't have to worry about his life. ' I can also start my training from now on.'
"But you need to wait for a week," Alex said mysteriously. Kai reluctantly agreed with his father and waited for a week.
Then a week passed. Kai anxiously waited for his father. He had disappeared for a week. Riya didn't say anything about Alex that week.
"Kai, come here; your father has arrived,"
"Dad, where did you go? I didn't see you for a week. Did you go to buy something for my training?" Kai asked as soon as he arrived because his father wouldn't go without telling him anywhere before he went.
"No, I didn't go anywhere."
Kai was confused by his answer because he didn't see him anywhere in the house.
Without giving any explanation, Alex said and started walking towards library. "Follow me."
Kai followed his father. When they both reached the library, Alex suddenly pulled out a certain book. After he took the book, the library shelves moved away, and a hidden passage appeared.
Alex started walking in the secret passage. Then, Kai followed his father into the passage. At the end of the passage was a very large space. It was filled with artificial light, lakes, and lush forest. Although there was no living being inside the large space, it looks like a mini world.
"Father, is it a secret realm?" Kai asked, his eyes containing excitement and hope.
Alex faced Kai. He replied with a proud smile "Yeah, it's a secret realm. But, it's only the lowest-tier one."
Kai was surprised to hear his answer because secret realms form naturally. The process for the formation of the secret realm may take a long amount of time around 10,000 to a million years.
The Qi inside the secret realm is also denser than the outside world.
In the secret realm, you can find heaven-defying treasures with just a bit of luck.
But the secret realm is also classified from Grade 1 to Grade 6. While Grade 1 is the lowest and Grade 6 is the highest, corresponding to the major realms.
The secret realm that Alex showed Kai was a Grade 1 secret realm, and there was no possibility of finding treasures in this realm because only those in Grade 3 or above the secret realm would have treasures, but he was happy regardless since it would help his practice.
"Son, you need to keep the information about this matter a secret because it could endanger our lives," Alex warned Kai, since he didn't want the information about it to leaked.
Kai also agreed with him because, even though it is only a Grade 1 secret realm, because of its scarcity, it is always precious. There are a lot of people who would never mind having a large amount of resources.
"Your mother is inside the house; go and practice with her." Alex looked at Kai reluctantly and said "I have some work in the sect, so I won't be home for 2 to 3 years. You need to listen to her and don't misbehave,"
Kai looked at Alex and nodded "Okay, dad. I will listen to mom." With that Kai walked towards the house.
It was a small house built by Alex during the past week, he did so because it could help Kai in his training.
