Chapter 3 - A palace?

3 PVO

In the room the young man began to gather qi and enter the cultivation stage and the small palace which now had images of a beautiful and enchanting ornament with bluish white and beautiful colors shone brighter and brighter and without anyone noticing it flew into the air slowly in a that not even Alex in the room or others outside with higher cultivation bases didn't notice.

And when he arrived at a certain state he entered directly into Alex's mind and began to merge with his soul, at the same time a power left before by the mysterious palace enveloped around him as if reducing the passage of time where Alex was covered.

It didn't take long and in the former center of Alex's soul a palace was established there, improving its power and disguised.

.

It took a while but when Alex opened his eyes and entered the first stage of Qi condensation, before he opened his eyes his body disappeared from the scene.

MC PVO

As I cultivated and finally felt that I entered the first stage of Qi cultivation and opened my eyes to celebrate I was amazed at my surroundings.

"Where am I and how did I get here?..."

The environment was actually totally different from where I was before, a large lawn could be seen in front with a small river on the right side and from afar clouds like a dream covered the greatest distance and behind despite being cloudy even mountains could be seen, and the More shocking was the place behind me a large palace that conveyed antiquity and power it had white walls and bluish colors with an air of mystery and infinite power the environment here too even though not much seemed to have a little more Qi compared to the external environment.

And at that moment the gate was opened and a cute little boy wearing a butler's suit came out, the little boy had brown hair and honey eyes.

He came in front of me and seemed to observe my very essence, and then he bowed.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, I am Artemix or Art, I am the guardian spirit of this place known as the Yume Palace and I finally greet the master of this artifact."

He bowed with respect and I was scared.

"Calm down master Yume Palace, what does that mean…?"

He smiled as if to calm me and turned his hand slowly, and a beautiful wooden table and two chairs appeared with a tea set.

"Come on, let's have some first."

He spoke and I sat down...there's no point in stressing now and the tea smells good and refreshing and when I drank it I felt calm in my body and soul...and of course it was delicious...

"This tea is made from the leaves of a spiritual fruit tree known as Ribum da nevada, an excellent ingredient for making tea and some medicines."

 "The…" I was impressed because spiritual herbs also exist at home and we sometimes consume them to purify the body or just to improve the condition, but this one for some reason seemed quite tasty compared to what I took… I don't know if it's due to the preparation technique or by the herb.

"Well, then what do you think I start explaining?" Art asked with a smile on his face.

" Ah yes"

Then he started to explain.

"Yume Palace was created millions of years ago by a master who wanted to seek a disciple or more specifically an heir, he created it with the help of a refining master using all kinds of extremely expensive and best quality materials, while depositing it here your knowledge, techniques and process that you learned during your life and launched into the big world waiting for someone with enough talent and... a physique and a lineage aligned with his desire and with the master's affinity and you after so long fulfilled your desire, Of course, the palace previously recognized some individuals but only allowed others to stay with him for a few years until he had to leave in search of the true master, the knowledge of others was also inherited here."

"O..so does that mean I fulfilled the conditions? What are they?"

He looked at me and smiled in response.

"Yes you fulfilled and became the palace master for the conditions…they are related to your bloodline and physique not yet unlocked…as for what they are you are still very early in cultivation it is better to increase your strength first."

"Oh, OK.."

He smiled and continued his explanation.

"Well, let me introduce a little about this environment and the general functions of the palace before I bring you to get to know the place better."

"First for the most basic functions, as you can see from the mist the palace is sealed and its capabilities, space and amount of Qi have increased as your cultivation increases, as this process will cause the seals to be slowly unlocked, this is also for its safety and protection as well as in a way a test the same goes for certain locations and knowledge/books within the palace here is also an excellent environment to grow herbs and other spiritual crops, some are already planted left by other users, but are sealed to your current level"

I nodded even though he says it's a sealed space, it's still pretty big...be it the palace or the field in front...as for what's planted, I bet it could be useful in the future.

"Another function is that time here is altered; this means that two hours here are equivalent to one hour outside. In the future, this can also be adjusted and even increased by unlocking the seals. Another function is that, as it is connected to your soul, it allows you, if you wish, to conceal your true cultivation base more effectively than techniques. Thus, even individuals several levels above will not be able to identify your real cultivation level. Obviously, it's not perfect, but it's still quite useful, its effect is also more efficient than techniques."

'o...this is useful...not so much now but I can use a technique that hides this function more and go out in disguise...after all, it is problematic to deal with individuals with a high cultivation base and who can send stronger enemies.' I thought while listening to the his explanation.

"In addition, it also has the function of now unlocking the ability to see up to 400 meters of the outside world without basically being noticed, it is also a space that you can use and hide in moments of danger without being detected, of course in contrast you always You will leave where you entered."

"Can I see her?"

"Clear!"

He smiled and turned his hand and a screen that looked like an image from a video appeared.

And I could see my grandfather and brothers in front of the house as well as some servants around.

"Um, it seems useful if I hide in the future…"

"Yes, I can also help you at a certain level in this visualization. Another important and basic function is that it acts as a protector of your soul, as well as strengthening making your soul, even now without any unlocked seal considerably stronger than a pure Qi Condensation cultivator, it will also help as a filter increasing the speed of Qi absorption and at the same time making your internal Qi denser and more powerful, which of course may make it take a while for you to increase your base, but it will create a larger and stronger cultivation base compared to normal."

"I understood." I nodded while thinking.

'It doesn't matter if it takes longer as I know having more Qi and a more consolidated base is better.'

"That's good basic functions. How about we look at the place a little more before moving on to other explanations?"

"OK"

I said, slightly excited to get to know this new environment that I am currently a master of and he began to explain and show me everything.
