The Dungeon System

There is no such thing as being too cautious or too prepared and the master makes sure that he is safe where he makes his home.

He would allow some people, who had come to climb his mountain, to pass by, but none of them would enter the forest as it was tightly covered by trees and seemed to be quite dangerous, he said, and even if they did, the old man could easily take the lead.

It just so happens that Adam was able to find a little blog about a strange forest and an unregistered dojo in the middle of it and once again showed Adam higher luck than most people.

Adam, who was using his spiritual senses to explore the forest without his physical senses, suddenly felt as if the robe covering his physical senses had been removed and he was unsure what exactly the sensation was, but his instinct tells him that his master's test for him has come to an end.

Pulling back his spiritual senses, Adam heaved a sigh of relief, no longer needing to maintain his tense spiritual senses, and began to search for the lake his master spoke of.

Not long after that Adam stumbled on the lake, and after hearing the sound of water from several tens of meters away, Adam rushed towards him.

The sickening smell of dirt was disturbing and Adam could not wait to clear it from his body as he launched himself into the air as high as he could and dived into the water first.

The lake turned out to be quite deep and about 50 meters wide, but no one could find it with his master's Illusion Array hiding it and because of the trees surrounding and covering it.

The lake was clean and the water was clear and it slowly eroded the mountain rock that was beside it as it began to form a small cave on the water-filled mountain.

Adam swam up and down the lake, enjoying the coolness of the water that cleansed his body and loosened his tense muscles ever since he integrated the system.

It was her first time swimming for so many years and she always went with Cole all the time, but after her aunt fell ill, she had no luxuries, or time, to have fun in the pool.

Removing his clothes that had been tainted by dirt, Adam only wore ************** while swimming and relaxing in the cold lake water.

He was pretty sure that no one could see him or would come to the lake, either, but the thought of his master's spiritual senses being able to cover the entire area gave his body goosebumps and he didn't want to stay in the water for long.

[System of how my master can trick my physical senses into thinking that I am moving towards the lake, whereas I am not] asking Adam curiously.

Adam wouldn't be easily fooled if it wasn't so realistic and he really felt as if he was getting closer to the mountains and the area he was looking for.

It was only after he stopped after feeling that he had not traveled any distance that he realized that he had not moved much from the area where he had started.

{Ask your master for details, but I can tell you that he used array} answer system.

[What is an array] asked Adam.

He had heard about them from novels and movies that had cultivation in them, but he doubted how realistic and honest they were.

{Array is an inscription that requires the Master Array to write it on a certain material and with a certain intention while pouring energy into the inscription in the process. An array will then use such inscriptions, and the energy given to them by the user, to carry out the intent used when creating it and each array will have a specific function.

It sounded like an incredible job and ability to have, and Adam was interested in learning and mastering the Insrcption Array, Weapon Forging, and the, Pill Making and other incredible professions he might encounter in the cultivation world, but first, he wanted to increase his strength to a satisfactory level.

Adam stayed in the lake for 10 minutes as he enjoyed the cold water and swam in it as he cleansed his body, and while doing so, he did, he reduced the effects of the Hunters mind so that he could relax and enjoy himself properly.

With his ability to control and balance the effects of the Hunter's mind and how much control he has over his actions, Adam can see how useful it is to perform tasks that require him to be completely calm and unaffected by what is happening around him.

Adam came out of the water with only the underwear he was wearing, and remembered that he had no towel to dry himself.

[Why don't I try and use the Energy Arm Technique to get all the water out of my body) Adam thought to himself.

Activating the Energy Arm Technique would form a layer of Internal Energy all over his body, but in the process, Adam wondered if his Internal Energy would push the water where he was soaking wet.

As he thought and as he activated the Energy Arm Technique from his body, it pushed all the water around him and he instantly became dry.

But it made him confused as the clothes he was wearing earlier were not detached from his body by his Energy Arm Technique Activation and it seemed like he had discovered another property of his Internal Energy.

Either because it could pierce through his clothes.which obviously had small holes, while the water droplets would be pushed out, or because of his intention while using his Internal Energy.

But either way it was in his favor and he quickly put on a second change of clothes and changed his underwear, feeling vulnerable while naked and out in the open.

[Teacher has tested me and it seems that he has not fully trusted me, but as long as I am mostly transparent with Master and show that I have no ill intentions and only seek strength, he said, he has to keep teaching me] Adam thought to himself.

Adam rinsed his dirty clothes by the dirt and after rubbing them on the lake and squeezing all the water, he brought them back to the dojo.

Heading back to the dojo, following the path he remembered, Adam did not experience the same unusual feeling he felt when he was under the influence of the Illusory Array and he had reached the dojo within minutes of running.

"Master, I have returned" Adam announced, who despite knowing that his master can sense everything in the area, wanted to announce his presence and pretended not to know.

"Good work in managing to be able to achieve a constant state of the spiritual senses, which is very difficult to achieve, and you also manage to find a way to pass through it easily.How do you know that?" ask master.

"Well, you know the movies and all the kinds of fantasy stories that I'm talking about briefly to you, most of which are from China, most of which are from China, having a lot of different ideas about how to get out of this kind of situation and using those ideas, I found a solution" Adam replied with a wry smile.

"What, you mean our famous Illusion Array, the Array Masters has been rendered useless by your modern entertainment" his master exclaimed furiously.

Adam sat down and began to explain to him more about how much of the world became lazy and would enjoy a lot of entertainment in all its different forms and how China has a lot of entertainment that talks about cultivation and it has spread globally.

"So, you told me that people are becoming so comfortable, bored and relaxed in life that they have so many ideas and manage to reveal all the secrets of cultivation, and that they have so many ideas, although it was actually not knowing about cultivation" his master exclaimed after Adam's explanation was finished .

"Well, not all secrets, but many things can be found by most people who become more creative and open to new ideas" Adam corrects.

"It seems that I have underestimated the development and progress of mankind over the years and although their bodies have become weaker and unhealthy, they have compensated it with their creativity, knowledge and science" master said.

Adam then went on to tell his master about weapons, weaponry, bombs, and all other weapons of mass destruction, which could easily kill even cultivators, he said, and his master was surprised by all that Adam explained to him.

“Nah, Son, if the world has really changed so much, you should apply science and use modern technology to help you and increase your power with them.The circumstances" said the Master.

"Yes, sir" Adam agreed as he prepared for the difficult training his master had prepared for him.
