Level 2!

...

The next day, before the sun rises, it marks the start of a two day journey of some people.

A dozen groups, composed of a few thousand young people each strode towards a certain direction of the Twilight Kingdom.

Each one of them were riding a large cloud, and on top of each large cloud are a few old men in front that occasionally fluctuates their momentum.

The old men are the patriarchs of each family with long heritage.

Because of this large movement, they woke up their ancestors who are in a deep hibernation to prevent the exhaustion of vitality.

Of course, they are also hoping that with the power of Linshu Sect, the fire deep inside of each one of them of breaking through the shackles of Nirvana Tribulation were ignited yet again.

And they are willing to pay a great price as long as Linshu Sect helps them.

On the other side, Lin Shu is frantically increasing his cultivation level whereas it reached a bottleneck of a certain level.

But these kinds of bottleneck is as easy as drinking water for him.

Using his aura, he switched the mid-tier stones to high-tier ones.

Thousands of red coloured stones were continuously getting swallowed up which gradually formed a whirlpool made out of thick amounts of red aura. Some of these were redirected to the temple where hundreds of disciples were sitting cross-legged. After these few days, the weakest amongst them reached the pinnacle of Mortal Core realm.

That's right!

Mortal Core Realm.

During these days, when they found out that as long as they reached a certain level of cultivation. They have a good chance to get promoted from their current position.

And when they get promoted, they can accept the discounts, tasks with greater rewards, and of course, their pride.

With these as their motivation. They are now doing their utmost best to strive for a better position which will guarantee their future. After all, no one knows what will happen, either they'll get overshadowed by those future disciples with great martial arts talent, or get surpassed by their fellow batches of disciples.

Because of the frantic increase of cultivation by these people, the minimum requirement for a promotion is now gradually increasing. From the early days of Mortal Core Realm, to Heaven Core Realm.

But!

Little did they know that these were the handwriting of Lin Shu. To be able to get to level 2, he needs a pretty large amount of experience in which he can obtain when his disciple's cultivation level increases.

So, he instructed his elders to 'accidentally' release a bit of information about the criteria for a promotion.

...

Noon.

+ 3 XP

+ 5 XP

+ 12 XP

Lin Shu, who was sitting cross-legged heard a sound in which he felt like the sound of heaven. Which is just his narcissism.

Ding!

[Congratulations to the host for Levelling up!]

[Current Level: 2 (14/2,500)]

[Rewards: Tier 2 Legion Card + Tier 2 Recruitment Card(3x) + Hidden World Expansion Card]

[Bonus: For getting to level 2, the host gets an access of opening a gate which leads to a world full of monsters somewhere in the Thousand Myriad Realms.]

[Extra notes: The gate can be freely opened up by the Sect Master on his hidden world in exchange for magic stones, the greater the amount or the higher quality of stones sacrificed in these portal. The stronger the monster or the larger the amount of monsters that comes out of these gates. The Sect Master or whoever the Sect Master gave permission to operate these gates can determine these things. As for what kind monsters are picked out to come out of the gate, these are randomly generated by the system.]

'Alright, I'm out!'

"With this function, I could possibly build those mob grinder from games which is pretty ironic since this is not a game at all, but real life where deaths can occur anytime and anywhere."

"Now, what the hell two new types of card? I mean the expansion card's function is obvious. But what's the legion card all about, System?"

Legion Card, as the name implies, is a card that can summon an elite legion. A card can summon from hundreds of people to thousands, and even millions of people. Each individual are people who have experienced countless life an death situations on their life. In short, they are the elites of the elites. These people can generally leapfrog a few levels of cultivation. Plus with the hidden world's function, their strength can increase drastically. A legion is designed for works such as keeping the order of the hidden world.

"Yes! With this I can devote myself further into cultivation instead of keeping the order in the sect!"

Clicking on the 'use' button.

The card, which was held by two fingers in his right hand quickly turned into white light which then slowly disintegrated piece by piece until there's none left.

Just a few seconds after that, four large space cracks appeared on his north, east, south, and west from where he is standing.

Rumble!!!

Like a magnitude 10 earthquake, the whole hidden world started to shake heavily. Faint hints of suffocation permeated each and everyone of them.

On those four large space cracks, large amounts of people wearing golden, black armour swarmed out. Each one of the four large space cracks them were led by a person standing on a cloud hovering just below their feet. Behind their heads, there's a golden wheels which are composed of unfamiliar symbols that reveals a sense of oppression when you directly look at it.

Divine Core Realm!

When someone reaches this level, as long as they reveal their Cultivation, symbols made out of the aura of Heaven and Earth manifests on these golden wheels. The wheel is evenly divided into 8 pieces just like how a pizza is neatly sliced. A symbol represents their current level.

If 8 symbols are manifested, when a person reaches the ninth level, a faint symbol will appear on the centre in which will be fully manifested when they reached the tenth level.

Amongst these 4 people, two have 6 symbols, and the last two people have 7 and 8 golden symbols behind them.

Before he could react, on top of the sky, a large space crack which extended for dozens of miles appeared.

Like when ants swarm out, these large amounts of people kept pouring out and continuously landing in front of him kneeling with their fist facing downward. Kinda like when someone gives their respects to the King from the old era of his previous life.

When he looked at these figure, he guessed that there's at least a hundred thousand people kneeling before him which made his blood boil.

When these figures landed, with Lin Shu as it's centre, a circular shape of free space where in front of him, 4 people exuding deep cultivation kneeled before him.

Boom!

Like when a jet made a sonic boom, a muscular, bearded man landed in between these four people.

With a slightly hoarse, but deep voice, the bearded man shouted: "The Golden Dragon Legion meets the sect master!"

"The Golden Dragon Legion meets the sect master!"

"The Golden Dragon Legion meets the sect master!"

"The Golden Dragon Legion meets the sect master!"

"The Golden Dragon Legion meets the sect master!"

The people behind them followed up.

...

Below the temple, the disciples looked at the scene happening before their eyes with mouth opened wide.

"This! This oppression is horrible even though we're standing miles away from there!"

"Oh my god! There's at least a hundred thousand Nirvana Tribulation up there!"

"And those five people! Is that the legendary Divine Origin Realm?! According to the legends, when someone reaches this level. One can flatten a large mountain with just a finger! But now, there's five kneeling in front of Sect Master!"

"I feel like joining this sect is the most wisest decision I made throughout my life."

"I agree."
