A beautiful face with a solemn expression showed up on the screen "Good even, my name is Paige I work for an individual you may all remember as Fat brain. I have his permission to reveal his real identity as Kai Waters who was previously in the news for a time.
He has sent me to inform everyone that the world is in grave danger, this is a space crack it is from this phenomenon that powerful atmospheric gas energies invaded our world. They seem to come from another world.
When these energy invaded our bodies we were forced to evolve, some were not able to accommodate the process and their systems shut down turning them into mindless beasts who hunger for ways to sustain their failed evolution.
The problem is that these space openings are getting bigger. Master Kai can not locate and close them all because the world is very big. Imagine a space crack deep into the ocean. No one may discover it until big monsters from the otherside have invaded our world." Paige took a moment to drink water from a glass.
"This device can close them, it can be found on the Fat brain supplies shop online. Those with a smart bracelet are familiar with this items shop. It is my Master's hope for this message to reach the rest of the world which is why we have been selling these bracelets to all the countries that are still standing after the great change."
"Our organization would also like to recruit and train soldiers who will help fight for humanity. If you are old, we have an elixir that can reverse time and bring you back to when you were stronger. It is made from a tree that has a substance with rejuvenating properties inside its branches.
If you are sick and weak you may also apply because we will bring your body back to its optimal state. If you are crippled and your limbs have been cut off or eaten by a beasts we can help you regrow your limbs and make you whole again.
All you have to do is to sign up and allow our specialists to train you and turn you into the shield that will protect humanity from whatever comes out of these space cracks. This offer is only temporary. Thank you."
This advert has been playing every day at least two times a day online. There are even large screens on every large and small base in the country that were installed for this advert. There are stations allocated to receiving volunteers, transporting them to the tower and the other school where they will be healed and trained.
Phil helped Kai realize he was being over confident when he set a goal to find and close every space crack in the world. He needs help from practically everyone in the world to identify and close the space cracks using the devise or he will work himself to the bone.
Therefore Kai decided to reveal the existence of these space cracks before they become bigger. He also used this fear of invasion by aliens to recruit soldiers while giving hope to those suffering from despair. These types of people will be easy to brainwash into working hard for him.
The bracelets quickly made it to the rest of the world and the world became connected again. Word about the space cracks spread and the remaining world leaders quickly bought the device some even managed to make it in their own countries.
But just as Kai has been warned, many space openings were left undiscovered. In the novel, only after six years did the world discover the invasion but by then, it was too late. But now there is even a possibility these world leaders will be able to invent the sensory device in time.
.....
In the forest near central base, a young man is leading a team of people to hunt mutated beasts so they will sell it to the school factory and earn credits to buy cultivation resources.
They came across another group fighting a group of hyena looking beasts. The first team leader is called Cutter because he can coat his body in a mysterious aura and use it to cut the weapons of his opponents turningthem into scraps.
Body cultivators are not able to use most of their power into long range attacks but this is why they have been thoroughly trained to master at least one long range weapon.
When they coat their weapons in this aura and they can become almost impossible to guard against.
They are called the aura warriors. Kai stole this idea from the other world. The only difference is that even without using weapons, his people are still a force to be reckoned with. Kai has their bodies thoroughly trained and turned strong before aura is introduced into their routine.
This is so they are powerful even without using their aura. The surprise was when drawing aura became easy for them as soon as they completed the first level of body cultivation technique.
While the other world warriors may use the aura to make their bodies strong but it can never be to the level of body cultivators.
Cutter recognized the team in front of him. It is his old team. The people who were with him from the beginning of the apocalypse up to the time where he was left with nothing on the streets of the central base.
His sister was also in this group. When he didn't awaken the supernatural power, he was treated bad which is understandable since he didn't have the power but to be sidelined by his own sibling was what pushed him to the lowest point of his life.
When they asked him to leave the team rental house, she didn't speak for him but he can understand that he was a disappointment to her. Shaking away his thoughts, he told his current team to leave from here. He might understand their actions but he is not so forgiving.
"Aang? Is that you?" The girl is wearing old jeans but it is still considered good at these times. Cutter heard her calling his name but he didn't stop in fact his team practically disappeared from her sight.
Cutter knew there will be many casualties in that fight but he is not feeling any guilt for leaving them like that. If it wasn't for the villa area cleaning up the streets he would have died from the bad weather or hunger on the streets while she is enjoying cheese safely inside.
The team didn't say anything about the encounter but cooperated well together like always. The loot is stored inside their space bracelets before making their way back. At the edge of the forest, many dead bodies from his former team lay on the scotching ground, he looked for his sister but didn't find her.
Only to come across her at the main gate of the villa area heavily injured and sobbing uncontrollably in line to go to the villa area hospital. When she saw her brother she is stunned into silence. "Aang? It really is you."
The old team surrounded Aang to confirm. "Who would have thought? It seems the villa area is really picking up trash these days." The leader of the other team said. He is the one who had pushed Aang's sister to get bitten by the beast a while ago.
"Yeah, what can someone without super power even do?" Another one commented but Cutter just looked at them as if looking at a bunch of idiots. He is in the top ten strongest in his school, even those talented mages have ro take him serious in battle.
Seeing his expression someone became displeased. This person attacked Cutter with a fire ability but Cutter just shrugged it off as if it was nothing. Then he grabbed the young man and started punching his face. The other boy is as weak as a chicken in Cutter's hands.
He looked at the rest of them with a murderous gaze. They all shivered and retreated. He had covered his body in a faint bronze colored aura a moment ago and it neutralized the fire attack. Many saw it but they don't know what happened.
The aura will be bronze in the early stages up to level six the color will go from light to a darker shade as the levels go up. It will then turn yellow at level seven up to level 12, each breakthrough will allow the fighter to have more power compared to the previous level.
Then there will be gold color aura which will be many times more powerful than the yellow levels. Bright gold will get darker until it gets brownish gold in level 15. Aura cultivators at this stage can fly.
The amount of aura in their bodies can be used for long range attacks. They may not use spells but the attack will take form in accordance with the attacker's will. It will take years to reach this level.
However, because of the types of resources given in the school and the intensity of the training provided by the robots, they will all reach yellow levels with in a year of entry into the school. Kai chose this cultivation technique for all because it is more suitable for the environment and the energy in the air. It will allow for faster results in a short amount of time.
Most importantly, talent disposition is not important as long at one trains and push their body to the limit, they will see results. Another good aspect is that Kai has provided the school a lot of options for healing the body after a gruesome cultivation and all these methods are applied to these students maximizing the result of their training.
"I can not believe you found a way to make everyone so powerful." Paige sighed looking at Kai who just smirked and drank a cold can of beer.
"I got lucky." Kai admitted. If he never met Phil he would have died that day with a slit throat.
"I have to say, the sales of your beer has gone up every day which increased the prices especially now that the market is global." Paige marveled. As soon as people found out a sandwich can be a click of a button away, hope returned.
"It is amazing. But what's even more amazing is the resilience of the human spirit. The weather is so bad but they still go out to hunt just to get a crate of beer." Kai commented with an eye roll.
"That is because the spirit food in the website has energy that can improve the quality of supernatural powers. It is more of an investment than simple sustenance." Paige reasoned.
This is true so Kai agreed. Factories in the six bases can also produce beer but it is not made from spiritual wheat and hardly ever makes it to the online store because it sells well in each base.
"You have been more relaxed lately." She commented.
"I delegated most of my work and now I am free. Plus I have to make time for the twins but they only come back on weekends now. Even then it is obvious they would like to be at school with their friends. I feel old." In truth he has been supervising cultivation of 100 youngsters.
It took some effort and thanks to the slow flow of time inside the space, he was able to arm these cultivators with all the neccessary skills they will need to be excellent guardians for his children.
"They are still your children."
"I know, but sometimes I think that maybe I have provided a too comfortable environment in the tower." Kai sulked.
"Maybe you can try developing another branch in your personal life. One that is separate from raising your children." She suggested.
"The last time I made a friend, they let me be bate so they can save themselves and they never come back for me." Kai said sadly.
In truth he also wants to make more friends but the world is too uncomfortable. Outside is either too hot or too cold to make friends. Everyone is trying to survive and if he went and gave people his things they will feel like he is flexing his wealth.
So he focused on his guardian project. He knows that if the worlds collide, the mage tower will be the first place to attack because it is where the hope for humans is located. This will put the twins in danger, what if he is in seclusion when it happens?
Kai is planning to spend some time consolidating his breakthrough. He wants his most precious family to be safe. To facilitate this thought, he set up an array in one of the floors so these guardians can access large amount of spirit energy to cultivate.
He tested them and found five who will study alchemy so they will have the ability to provide elixirs and potions to the twins if needed. They thus have a small library with cultivation knowledge and general knowledge for cultivators so they can learn whichever skill they desire.
Kai kept them inside his space for the basic body tempering, weapons mastery, and introducing qi into their meridians.
A year quickly passed by. The school now has tens of thousands of aura soldiers who can practice outside of the school to make way for the next trainees.
They can use the world as training grounds. Making use of the school online shop to buy resources such as weapons and medicine to facilitate their growth.
The tower mages are the same. Some have potential to learn more and advance steadily within the tower while others are capable of only remaining basic mages. They may be basic but they are far more powerful than regular supernatural power users outside.
Hearing the numbers, Kai knows in the future, talents will be drawn to these two places and the world will be better for it. Soon, candidates from around the world were recruited. The language barrier was solved by the researchers with the liquid chip.
Even Kai found that his liquid chip can translate any language. The chip will quickly analyze the essence of that language and he will be able to respond using the same language on only a few moments.
They developed a chip that will allow people to communicate effectively. The chip is not expensive to make so the findings were published allowing scientists all over the world to develop it.
The schools will keep recruiting and the world will be reclaimed one small city lord at a time. The weather didn't seem to get better as time went on but Kai's six bases standards of living improved every day.
As time went by, the old homes, and the other places where sick, crippled and old people were being taken care had more spaces because non of these people wanted to give up an opportunity to be healthy again.
Before long, the school and the tower had to undergo more space magic remodeling to accommodate all the new recruits. This is good news in Kai's opinion.
The production of different products increased because the farming spaces had been gathering magic energies which allows for better growth in crops and healthier bountiful harvest.
What delighted Kai is the increasing amount of mines discovered.
Because of the vast amount of land in his space, Kai chose to put one of each ore mine with their respective veins so he will never run out of these ore no matter where he is.
He is also thinking to let the six bases use these mines to improve themselves without worrying about paying tax to him. Kai feels like he has enough wealth.
The base leaders thought that Kai is abandoning them but Kai told them to support the tower and the aura warriors school with whatever they can pull off until the twins come of age.
So far he has a magic stone mine, a maghu stone which is used to make flying swords, a space stone mine, the light ore mine that Mingxi base used to make hovering transport, the Kang ore which helped him refine any material into an artifact. There is even a sand stone mine which can turn make regular clothes into armor.
Kai didn't let go of regular copper, silver, gold, iron and diamond mines. He had one of each with their veins. He had to travel far to obtain all of them.
Finally the time for his long awaited breakthrough came and he started being followed by lightning as soon as he came out of his magic space.
"Why can't we wait for you in the magic space like last time?" Nate asked his father. As soon as Kai reported a long trip, the twins ecame distressed.
"Last time I was just at the foundation establishment realm now I have to condense the power and form a golden core which will contain all my power. If there is a singke mishap I may die or become dumb. What if you are stuck in my space for centuries with no way out because I died or lost my memories of having a magic space?" Kai said in a serious tone.
"Is daddy going to die?"
"No. It is an example. I love you my little butterflies. Promise me you will work hard to become worthy of your title as the owners of the tower?" Kai said but the two looked at him stupid.
"At least say you love daddy too."
"I love you daddy."
"I love you too daddy."
They both assured him as he stood up and left. When he was almost at the door he looked back at them. "Stay together my butterflies. Never let others pull you apart." He disappeared from the doorway leaving two teary eyed babies.
The guardians job has began.
These 100 men and women were practically tortured into being the strongest in body, spirit power and they can handle many weapons but they have mastered at least two weapons.
They signed a blood contract with one of the twin. The contract is fair but they still need to do all in their power to ensure the safety of their master.
Today they are moving into the top floors of the tower to continue their training while taking shifts in protecting the twins.
Kai stood in the middle of a deserted island and received the heavenly punishment. He formed his golden core while using the lightning body to heal and absorb most of the heavenly thunder. This will temper his body to an unprecedented level.
Kai is zapped harshly and couldn't take the last strike, he lost consciousness having been stuck naked. All his medium grade armor clothes burned to smithereens. When the last strike fell, it opened a space crack and Kai fell into a different place in the middle of the gloomy forest.
His hair all burned and fell down, the good news is that he is alive and he managed to form a complete golden core. It is now running in his body regulating his power perfectly.
His body is laying in the middle of an open crater as if he fell from a high altitude. He laid on the ground but the sound of loud crackling thunder in the middle of a sunny day alerted many beasts to investigate.
Including a young man who is bloodied and running from a group of human heroes who want to kill him and sell his fangs for gold. He ran to the sound when he saw that his pursuers were frightened of the sound of lightning. He had been fatally injured by a blessed weapon and may die any moment if he doesn't get human blood soon.
When he got to the place a young man with a shiny bald head laid naked in a middle of a large opening. Making a quick decision he decided to drink this young man's blood to save himself.
It was humans who hurt him anyways. "Consider it paying for the sins of your kin." The young fae of the blood clan said these words as he lowered his face to sink his fangs into the unconscious boys neck.
