Path of Absolute Transcendence

Ever since the first battle, Kai had fought a lot of beasts daily without fail for three years. He can now proudly say that he has a lot of battle experience and he was no longer a newbie in this field. Kai battled with lots of beasts of different races and also learned about their characters.

Now Kai is almost 12 years old, and this will be his last battle in training.

"Kai, are you sure you want to fight that beast?" Alex asked worriedly.

"Yes, dad, I am sure, and this time I will defeat it." Kai replied in a confident voice.

Alex asked worriedly because Kai wanted to fight a middle-stage Tier 1 beast. A middle-stage beast was out of Kai's league to battle, but after Kai learned the [Will Might] technique, he can fight them on an equal stage and even have the possibility of defeating them.

So Kai tried challenging them for his last battle in this training.

There are only 5 days before his birthday, which means he can start cultivating after 5 days, and he won't be able to fight as he would focus only on cultivation for a period of time.

"Okay, I agree with your decision. But I will interfere if I see anything wrong." Alex suggested.

"Okay, dad, you can do as you please." Kai also agreed since it was related to his safety.

Then Kai took his sword and started preparing for the battle. The opponent is a snake, but it cannot be said to be a snake because it's bigger than an anaconda. Its name is Green Serpant; it was named because of its green-colored venom.

Kai went near the snake; it became alert and looked at him. He attacked it without giving it any chance to make the first move, but the snake dodged his attack and spit its venom at him.

The venom fell like acid rain, but Kai dodged all of them like an art. The snake suddenly opened its mouth and tried to bite him using its fang. Kai calmly evaded the incoming attack, but with the speed of the snake, he had a hard time keeping up.

Since the snake's strength is similar to that of the Qi gathering realm, its physical body is superior to that of Kai. So, he can't keep up with its speed, and its defense is also very high. His sword only scratched its skin because of its defense and did not do any actual damage.

Kai suddenly used the [Will Might] technique on the snake, the compressed willpower shook the snake's spirit, and it became momentarily stunned. So, Kai took the opportunity to trust the sword into the snake's eye, since it was the only weak spot that he could find.

The sword was buried deep in the snake's head, but it obviously didn't die. It had a crazy amount of vitality and started attacking him violently without care for its life.

Kai knew the snake was going to die because of his surprise attack, so he calmly dodged the attack until the snake became exhausted. Then the snake laid down on the ground with hatred in its eyes, but it still had some breath on it.

After it was clearly confirmed that the snake was dead, Kai took his sword from its head and went to see his parents.

"Kai, you really did a good job, and it seems you also learned some soul technique." Alex said it in a proud tone.

"Congratulations, baby. I think only the geniuses of the Supreme and Emperor Tier families can do this, and you did it without any external resources. This is a very big achievement, and we will celebrate a party tonight." Riya praised her son enthusiastically.

It seems Alex misunderstood the will technique for a soul technique, but Kai didn't correct him, because he can surprise Alex by teaching this after becoming an emperor.

The only thing that Kai doesn't know why heaven did not allow him to teach the Will path to others before he proved Dao using this method.

'There may be some rules I don't know, but I will find them after I become stronger. ' thought Kai.

Hearing Riya's praise, Kai just smiled and didn't think much about it. Because even he can achieve this much without any resources (like medicines for making the body stronger or pills), how much can a genius from an emperor-tier family or sect achieve?

'I won't be able to compare with them for now, but I will be the final winner of the battle of destiny.' thought Kai.

Then the family of three enjoyed themselves at the little party, and it also made Kai relax. In the past six years, he didn't have a lot of time for relaxation other than the trip they spent together, and this party gave them a happy moment.

Kai decided to rest for these five days and did not even do the daily training.

Just like that, five days passed in a blink of an eye, and now it's time for Kai to start his cultivation journey.

"Kai, hold this stone in your hand and just relax. You will automatically awaken your cultivation talent." Alex handed him a pure white stone.

To begin the cultivation journey, a person needs to awaken, and the stone Alex gave Kai will help him awaken his cultivation talent. The pure white stone is called spirit stone, and it is also the currency among cultivators.

The spirit stone is just a condensation of Qi, but it only forms in a place where the Qi density is higher, just like in a secret realm. Such places are very rare to find, and even if they are found, they will be under the control of powerful families or sects.

Who in the world does not want to have more money with them? The spirit stones are also divided by grade; they are low level, mid level, high level, and peak level, and these are only the basic spirit stones.

There is also a saint-grade spirit stone, a supreme-grade spirit stone, and an emperor-grade spirit stone, but these types of spirit stones are very rare and are not used for any ordinary purchases.

Kai took the spirit stone and held it in his hands, and after a few moments, he felt a very cool feeling all over his body. It was very comfortable, and he wanted to enjoy that feeling for a little longer, but that feeling just disappeared.

When Kai opened his eyes and saw, the spirit stone in his hand had already turned into ashes.

Kai was able to feel that the world around him was totally different as he saw the energy around him. His thoughts also become very clear, and even his memory power seems to have increased as he can recall things from earth when he was a child.

"Kai, now that you have awakened, let's check your cultivation talent." Alex handed sphere to him.

"Okay dad." Kai replied to Alex in a heavy tone.

The sphere in Kai's hand is used for the detection of cultivation talent, called a measurement stone. The cultivation talent is just an affinity for Qi, but the affinity is very important for a cultivator since it determines the speed of cultivation.

The talent is divided from 1 star to 9 stars in low to high order. One-star talent has a very low affinity, and cultivation is like going the extra mile. For the nine-star talent, it will be smooth sailing.

Then Kai placed his hand on the measurement stone, and after a few seconds, five stars appeared in the sphere.

Kai was disappointed by seeing his talent because he always had a small hope that talent could cheat in this world, but it seems his talent is similar to that of his parents without any suspension.

Kai already had a plan to break through the talent limit, so he didn't care much, as he would only have a hard time in the early stages and it could also give him some valuable experience.

"Congratulations, baby; you can now officially become a cultivator, and your talent seems to be higher than ours." Riya said happily.

"Congratulations, Kai; now you are one step closer to your dream." Alex also said happily.

Both of his parents talents should be at the peak of four stars, so because of that, Kai's talent is at five stars. It increased a little, maybe due to hard work.

"Kai, you must cultivate only in the secret realm and don't cultivate anywhere else in the body-tempering realm. The Qi in the secret realm is very pure, and it helps you in the foundation establishment realm."

Kai also had the same plan, and it seems both he and his father had the same idea.

'Now I can't wait to start my cultivation.' thought Kai.

"Dad, I am going to the secret realm to cultivate." Kai said it excitedly and started running towards the secret realm.

Then he found a place with higher Qi consentration and sat in a meditative position. After relaxing his mind and calming his emotions, Kai started feeling the Qi in his surroundings. Then he saw himself surrounded by an ocean of Qi; it was a totally different world for him.

When Kai tried absorbing the energy, it gathered towards him at a slow pace. He didn't like that speed, so he tried to make them move faster by increasing the absorption speed.

It did become a lot faster compared to before, but he can only absorb a limited amount of Qi at once. It was like a mountain of treasure in front of him, but he could only take the a small amount.

Kai cultivated for a few hours, and stopped because he could not absorb them anymore.

'It seems to be the limitations of my body.' thought Kai.

If he cultivates at this pace, it would take more than two years to reach the peak of the mortal realm, and this is just the mortal realm. Kai doesn't know how much time it takes at the higher levels;

"It seems the importance of talent is much greater than I thought." He took a deep sigh.

Just as he was thinking, Kai noticed a small energy that was different from Qi. When he tried to feel it again, he didn't feel anything different, but when he used willpower, Kai saw an entirely different world.
