Path of Absolute Transcendence

"Now that I have completed the whole trial before I turn six, I should enjoy myself a bit because I want some childhood memories for myself and my parents." Kai muttered lightly.

After Kai learned that this world was filled with powerful cultivators and full of wonders, he always wanted to make himself stronger and didn't really have time to enjoy himself.

'For the next half year, I am going to really experience the joy of the fantasy world and relax myself.'

"Kai, your father will come to the house in a few days," Riya said this piece of news in a timely manner.

Kai was very surprised that his father would come back early, but since he came early, Kai decided to go on a family trip to enjoy.

"Okay, mom, you can go and rest because I can take care of myself for these few days. You can't show your beautiful face like this to your father." Kai said to his mom in a teasing voice.

Riya blushed and looked at him angrily, then ran to the hut and closed the door due to embarrassment. Kai acted like an innocent child who didn't know anything, and obviously her face was pale because of her tiredness, but why did she look at him angrily?

"I didn't believe she would get angry with me for such a small reason. I hope she doesn't punish me when she gets a chance."

He will learn the painful truth about not messing with women in the future.

After a few days, Alex arrived with a smile on his face.

He looked Kai in surprise" I think you must have completed the test"

Kai didn't reply; instead he looked at his father with surprise on his face.

"I can feel the change in aura around you." Alex smiled and replied after seeing his look.

Kai had indeed undergone a change after completing the trials. There was an aura of confidence surrounding him, and coupled with his handsome face, it made him very attractive and mysterious.

"Yes, dad, I just finished the test a few days ago, and thanks for the help, dad."

"You don't need to worry about that, son. It's the duty of a father to fulfill the dreams of their children."

Alex always talks like this, but Kai can conclude that he is very happy about hearing his words.

"Dad, how about we go outside for a trip? I wanted to do this for a long time, and now that we have time for it, I think we can go enjoy ourselves a little," Kai asked hopefully, since he wanted to see the real world.

"Okay, we can go to the capital tomorrow and visit other famous places on the way," Alex nodded, living upto Kai's expectation.

"Okay, dad," Kai said, and he was very excited to see the differences in culture among the people in this world. He had a lot of interest in the cultures of people ever since he was a child.

Then a day passes, and it is already the next morning.

"Kai, wake up. Did you forget about our trip?" Riya asked as she woke him up.

"No, mom, I will get ready now," Kai sat abruptly from his bed. Without even replying, he went to the bathroom to get ready.

The reason Kai did not wake up early was because of his excitement about going out for the first time. Even though Kai is an adult in child form, he got excited about the trip, since this was a fantasy world.

After that, Kai got ready in just 10 minutes.

"Mom, where is dad, and how are we going to the capital?" Kai questioned as he didn't see Alex in the house.

"Your dad had gone to take a carriage for the trip because the distance between the capital and our village is very long; we need to travel for 3 days in the carriage."

Kai and his parents had been living in a village for a long time. There are two reasons for it.

One is that his parents like to live in a quiet place, and they don't want any trouble. The other reason was for the secret realm located near the house. His parents built the house at the entrance of the secret realm to block prying eyes.

A secret realm cannot be sensed by a cultivator, and it can only be seen through the eyes. Because the secret realm is formed naturally, it won't cause any fluctuations or disturbances in the space, so they cannot be sensed using the soul or any other method.

A saint realm cultivator can easily see through them, but they won't come to this kind of backwater place.

The village where Kai lives was called Blackstone Village. The reason for the name was because the village has a mine that produces a lot of blackstone. Blackstone is a kind of iron that looks like a black stone, so the village is called Blackstone Village.

The blackstone is very useful for the production of ordinary and mortal-tier weapons.

The village people here are mainly blacksmiths, and their source of income was forging. Alex was also born in this village, and he has a very good reputation because he was the only one to become a cultivator in this village.

Not all people can cultivate in this world because everybody's fate is determined at birth. The talent for cultivation is determined by their parents; if the parent of the child is a cultivator, then the child can become a cultivator.

But if the parents are just mortals, the child cannot become a cultivator.

It was like a bloodline inheritance that was passed down from generation to generation. But there are loopholes in everything. There is a Spanish proverb that says, 'Even the law has a loophole'. Just like how the impartial law has a loophole on Earth, here even the heavens have a loophole.

So even a mortal can cultivate and become an emperor, but that requires tremendous luck.

The bloodline of a mortal is like a genetic disease that passes down from generation to generation. To become a cultivator, the child has to be born without the genetic disease.

But a cultivator won't have that kind of disease in their blood, and their children who have the same gene as them will definitely be as healthy as them. There may be a few exceptions, but that is only a small minority.

This is the theory Kai made up by studying the human body and the book that Alex brought him. This example can't describe the exact situation for mortals. It's more like a genetic problem or deficiency for mortals, and cultivators won't have that kind of problem in their genes.

The only option for mortals to change their destiny is to acquire a treasure that can make up for their defect, but that kind of treasure is like finding a needle in the vast ocean. It requires tremendous luck.

As Kai was thinking about the situation, his father arrived in a carriage.

"Kai, go and call your mother. We need to start our journey earlier because there is a large forest between the village and the next city, so we need to cross that forest before the sun sets." Alex said, as they can't stay in the forest at night.

"Okay, dad, I will call mom." Kai replied and ran to call his mother.

"Mom, father already arrived with a carriage, and he wants you to stop doing your makeup." Kai said as he saw his mother doing her makeup and made up a lie to make her get ready as soon as possible.

Riya always takes a lot of time to do her makeup, and Kai doesn't want to waste that much time, so he made up that to hasten the process.

"What, how dare he order me to stop doing my makeup?" Riya asked angrily.

Women are essentially the same, even in a different world, they will take a lot of time for makeup. Even though the Enlightenment World didn't have any skin care and she only needed to comb their hair, she changed her dresses and ornaments a lot to see what is suitable for her.

It may seem simple, but it definitely takes a lot of time.

"I think my father would get beaten today because of the lie, but I don't care as he can easily coax mom."

Riya didn't like anyone disturbing her during her makeup time, but this time Kai used his father, so he will probably get some punishment instead of Kai.

"Okay, let's go; I already finished my makeup. I am just checking up." Riya said after finishing her work.

After that, they both sat inside the carriage, and Riya stared at Alex intensively.

"Honey, what happened, and why are you staring at me like that? I feel very uncomfortable." Alex said as he saw Riya's glare.

"So you don't like me anymore. I was just seeing you, and you told me like this: Did you find me ugly, or is it because after going away for two years, did you find someone better than me?" Riya replied angrily.

"No, I didn't say that. It's just somewhat weird because your stare doesn't feel right."

"Then why did you tell me to stop doing my makeup?" Riya questioned him.

"When did I say it?" He was confused and suddenly stared at Kai . But Kai didn't see him and just looked outside.

"No, I didn't say anything. It was this brat who made up the lie," Alex said as he pointed his finger towards Kai.

"No mom, dad is lying. I just told you what exactly he told me."

"Well, now you even started lying. How can a child tell a lie? If you don't want to admit it, just don't,"

As Alex saw Riya getting angry, he started to apologize and told her some sweet words to make things up.

"Don't think I will fall for these petty tricks. You are going to sleep outside the house for one week," Riya punished him for his behavior.

"Dear, don't do this; I definitely won't do this again. Please at least make the punishment for these days." Alex said pitifully.

"No, I have already said it, and this is the final verdict,"

Alex sadly accepted the punishment but glanced at Kai angrily. The punishment was solely because of Kai's lie, but he had endured it.

"Mom, Dad looks at me angrily. He looks like he is going to beat me,"Kai told Riya as soon as he saw his father looking at him.

"Dear, do you want to increase your punishment for one month?" Riya asked as she glanced at Alex.

"No, I just saw him; he must have misunderstood things," Alex replied, seeing that Riya was going to increase the punishment.

This type of small fight always happens in their family, and it will soon end smoothly without creating any problems.

Then the journey just continued, and they just reached the forest. So, Kai started looking outside to see the scenery, and what he saw amazed him.

The size of the tree is very big; it can be compared to a small skyscraper on earth. Their village didn't have a tall tree at this height, but in the forest, all the trees are almost at this height. Kai also saw a lot of animals that are very different from Earth, and their size is also very big.

But these things are without any cultivation. In the Enlightenment World, even plants and animals can cultivate. Almost all the living beings can cultivate here; they just have a different name. The animals that are cultivated are called beasts, and the plants and trees are collectively called dryads.
