Chapter 7 - Garden of Ginseng

Ron stood in his garden, feeling the surge of spiritual energy that was flowing freely around him. The ginseng plants he had buried were not just ordinary herbs; they radiated a deep, almost ancient energy, filling the air with a vibrant aura. As he sat in the center of this energy field, his mind focused entirely on his cultivation. Ron's Qi flowed through him like a mighty river, and after hours of concentrated effort, he felt a shift deep within his core.

A bright spark of energy ignited, and Ron could feel his cultivation rise from the middle stage of the Qi Gathering Realm to the advanced stage. His body tingled with newfound power as his inner energy surged through him, reinforcing his muscles, sharpening his senses, and calming his mind. It was a feeling of pure strength and control, a powerful breakthrough that he knew could push him through many more trials to come.

He clenched his fists, feeling the raw power flow through his veins. He knew that with this advancement, conquering the next 10 stages in the tower would be no more than a warm-up. His stats had surged—his strength, agility, endurance, and even his spiritual energy reserve had grown to new heights. The ginseng plants had done more than just aid his cultivation—they had allowed him to leap forward in his progress, and now he stood on the brink of a new challenge.

Suddenly, his guide's voice cut through his thoughts. "Ron," the guide said with a calm but firm tone, "You've made great progress, but before you rush off to the next floor of the tower, you should consider practicing some skills first."

Ron nodded, curious about what the guide had in mind. "What kind of skills do you think I should learn?" he asked.

The guide paused for a moment, as if considering the countless techniques that lay within his knowledge. "There are many skills you could learn," he began. "But, at your current level, it's important not to spread yourself too thin. Mastery comes through focus. However, there is one skill I recommend before you take on the tower's next stages. This skill will be invaluable—detection."

"Detection?" Ron repeated, intrigued. He had heard of such abilities, but he had never had the chance to learn one.

"Yes, detection," the guide continued. "This skill allows you to sense the strength of your enemies, detect hidden traps, and foresee ambushes. It's essential for survival when you're facing cunning monsters or entering unknown territory. It will also help you locate hidden rooms and materials that could be crucial for your journey."

The guide's words sparked excitement in Ron. "That sounds like something I need," he admitted. "How do I learn it?"

"First, stand still," the guide instructed. "Calm your mind and focus on your inner energy. Spread it throughout your body, and then, extend it outward in a circle around you. You must feel every inch of your surroundings as if they are a part of you. This skill is demanding because it consumes a great deal of mana, but your inner energy, which is much stronger, will make this process easier. And here in the garden, with the endless flow of spiritual energy, you have an advantage. Do not hold back—use all the energy you can."
