Roughly one month remained until all the surrounding nascent soul sects and golden core sects would be meeting to celebrate at the devil crow valley, for their new nascent soul cultivator
At this time a storm of news appeared, the black mountain sect has gotten a secondary nascent soul cultivator
At face value the devil crow valley would have an advantage as they have 3, while black mountain only has 2
But luton is a master of spell-craft, simply put he will endlessly cast spells,
Fighting him is more difficult than the average nascent soul overall, he just has way to many methods of fighting
With the mastery of over 100,000 spells it's difficult to put him in a situation where he does not have a direct counter
This has left many sects worry, as this "party" they will attend has just gotten more complicated, before many sects just thought they would pay tribute and be done with it
Now that another sect has power similar to the other, they wouldn't know if they will be forced to pick sides
This may lead to war between dozens of sects depending on the reaction of the azure sea sect
The only other nascent soul sect in the area, if they join a side it will make or break, war or peace. All they can do is wait and see what will happen at the party
Back at the black mountain sect Aurora and her students were chatting and discussing their cultivation experiences
Aurora would correct mistakes when she found them, they continued chatting for a good few hour before Mia and iris had to leave
"What about you Arc,do you need to leave?"
Aurora asked curiously
Arc laughed lightly before hugging her and saying " i'm not leaving unless you physically take me off of you"
He hugged her tightly his head deep in her chest, he smiled and refused to let go
Aurora smiled as she patted his head, she then grabbed him and brought him into her room
Arc left the room the next day, and headed straight to his room to begin cultivating,
He sat down and began attempting to cultivate and found that he couldn't calm down
"This won't do"
Arc muttered to himself
To many things have happened in a short period of time leaving lots of emotions to build up, it would be difficult to cultivate with all the thoughts flowing through his head
Arc decided to pull out the his formation flag, and to add to the painting, this could help him expend these emotions,
To the left of the golden floating city Arc began adding a metal tower, it seemed to be made entirely of metal and glass,and it radiated green light
It completely contrasted the structures around that, that were magical and mythical
This new building was something you would see in the far future, made of unknown advanced technology
Arc then added on roads connecting all the different locations on in the painting, he drew carriages, spirit boats, cars traveling throughout the various unique parts of the city
Blending the different cultures and timezones making something distinctly unique
After that he took to the sky's and began drawing the sun, it differed from the sun on earth, for it was layered
It was formed of endless layers of light that overlapped and stretched, as if capturing the space around it preventing it from escaping
The sun would set and rise, and at its light would reflect upon the golden city at certain times, each time different than the last
Arc had completely forgotten about everything around him, all that existed was the paintings
The painting at first seemed elegant and perfect like a world belonging to immortals
Now looked somewhat chaotic, the buildings didn't blend together as well as Arc wanted and he didn't understand why
He looked at all the different parts and found that they stacked against each other and had no similarities
He needed to blend area's to make fusions of each types of building to make it look like one city, not an amalgamation of cities
Sci Fi building with cultivation twist came into being, metal and glass formed, intricate ways that formed manors, ancient style homes of various cultures
then buildings of the inverse's started to appear, structures that would only appear in a fantasy world made strange materials,
Yet they looked like modern homes and structures, each building had one thing in common, all sorts of runes can be seen covering them
These runes glowed green and continued and connected to other buildings forming a "formation"
It was only a formation visibly, any formation master would be able to tell that it doesn't have a real effect
Arc continued this pattern by adding this "formation" to every building, connecting them, this allowed them to seem as those the different parts all served one purpose
There were the different cultures in their unique areas the closer to the center the more blended they would become
The view from the prison was astounding, it seemed as though hole opened into the upper realm, glimpse into a world that belong only to the immortals who transcended
Arc felt his hand grow heavy the more he drew, his mind grew clear, but his body could not sustain this
When he added the final rune, his hand collapsed, dropping his pen on the floor
He found himself in a deep sweat, his eyes couldn't focus, yet he found peace in the state
The Baggage that was weighing him down has been released, all that remains is the exhaustion that came from removing it
After that Arc took deep breaths and began cultivating, the mana flowed around and throughout him
Arc didn't know if it was a misconception but he felt his Aura more tame and uniform, making this process go by without a hitch
Qi cultivation is the process of gathering gas qi in the dantain, and expanding it size to the maximum
After Arc's cultivation stage regressed when he changed techniques, his dantain became smaller in size;yet it was much stronger than other dantains, it's durability was astounding
meaning that while arc would be stronger than same stage cultivators, his speed would be astronomically slower
Arc didn't really think too much of this, as considering he cultivates like a spirit beast, he's just glad he still cultivating at a human speed
Or else he would die of old age before hitting foundation of establishment realm
After cultivating for a long while Arc exhaled a black gas, coughing loudly, when he finally stopped coughing he found his entire body was sticky
He was covered in dirt and gunk, it seemed he expelled many of the impurities within his body
Arc headed towards the bathroom before realizing a depressing fact…, this world doesn't have showers
Arc somewhat annoyed by this no longer wanted to bathe and casted fireball onto himself burning the impurities away, not even ashs remained
" no matter how much time passes I still miss the modern conveniences I had available on earth"
Arc muttered to himself lightly
Arc decided to head towards the library and read on formations, and runes
The runes remastered of the art, are different from traditional runes, they were designed to make paintings looks better, not to be used in actual formations
Which is why Arc decided to descend to the third peak, and learn more runes; he wanted to start making things that would be convenient
For example, if he could combine the water creation formation, with fire formation to increase the heat of the water, he could forge a showerhead
He didn't expect to become a master of formations, but as a full-time forge master, having a understanding of rules would be extremely helpful
"Brat what do you want"
The librarian said taking his attention off his paperwork
Arc laughed before speaking
" They still have you working?"
" It's your fault! You gold digging little bastard"
The librarian responded angrily as he thought to himself
' i was doing Aurora's work in sect management, but seeing how efficient I was doing it, they decided to make me actually work by splitting all their workload and giving a portion to me'
Arc laughed lightly before headed to 4th floor, he wandered around before finding books on formation runes
The runes were completely different from the ones Arc knew, looking through the book it felt as though he was changing programming languages
Arc wasn't a programmer in the past, but he felt that this was the best comparison, it felt as though he the Art runes was like programming in one of those games that teach kids how to program
And these formation runes, were like coding in assembly; but it could literally explode in front of you if you made a single mistake
Arc read and memorized as many books as he could but he couldn't help but get a massive headache,
" that's enough of formation for today"
Arc said quickly, he felt as though reading one more book would cause his head to pop
