Chapter 3 - Dao of destruction

"So quiet, couldn't they have atleast kept some servants." Argos sighs in resignation as 10 years of isolation from the outside world weighs in on his mind. The atmosphere of the royal Palace devoid of any life feeling all to familiar.

But as Argos starts to get closer to the library he can't help but imagine him walking around with superpower into apocalyptic battlefields.

"I can finally start cultivation." Argos mutters as excitement washes over him followed by nervousness. Argos was prohibited to learn about cultivation making him go blindly into the start of his journey to immortality.

A translucent barrier breaks him out of his imagination as he reaches his destination. Argos quickly throws his key into the barrier. As the thin piece of paper that is the key disappears ìnto non existence the door to the library is revealed. Argos quickly goes jnto the magnificently small library as only around 15 scriptures can be seen inside it.

"This is it! My precious demonic destruction scripture." Argos speaks loudly as he can't contain his excitement. Unlike the usual norm within the Demon Race which advocates for the soon to be cultivators to choose based on their instinct Argos who naturally knows his attributes swiftly picks up the scripture. While others may know the vague direction of their affinity with the spiritual roots the full extent of their true affinity can not be revealed through the small amount of colours displayed in the orb.

Argos doesn't pay attention to his expulsion from the library by a mysterious force and starts reading the scripture. The scriptures describes the realms of cultivation from qi condensation to soul transformation.

Qi condensation realm deals with the opening of meridians and refining them with qi. The smaller division formed as the connective meridians can be divided into 3 groups with their function corresponding to the improvement of the spiritual roots,physique and brain of the cultivator.

Foundation establishment realm is the next realm and deal with the acquisition of an immortal body by transformation a mortal or dao body through the use of qi. It can also be thought of as an awakening of the body. The sub realms of this realms are divided through the progges one has made to the completion of the immortal body.

Core formation and soul formation deal with the inevitable formation of the soul and their ascension hough the dao. The native people of this world have no soul while Argos who is from another world can be said to have a mortals soul as it hasnt been imprinted by his dao.

Argos starts cultivating after memorising every detail in the scripture while the scripture is nowhere to he seen as if it never existed. The restriction on the Demon Race strenghtenig as the movement of luck into a ten year old child can be seen by the discerning eyes of the immortals.

After finally refining qi and starting to open meridians Argos is interrupted by a system prompt.

[Detectig qi in the subject's body]

[Analysing subject's past]

[It is determined that the subject shall be regarded by demonic convergence eyes for the subjects survival]

"YOU FINALLY APPEARED MY CHEAT SYSTEM!!!Where were you for the past ten years." Argos says as an unfamiliar energy enters into his body and rushes towards his eyes. The energy bring neither discomfort nor comfort but Argos instinctively closes his eyes.

After the energy leaves him Argos tries to open his eyes only to be dealt with the dazzling sight of the world with his new crimson red eyes. Shortly afterwards Argos falls to the ground unconscious by the sheer exhaustion of the mind.
