a puppet

"93... 94." Sora swung a tree branch down like a sword. this was sword swing practice, which the system told him he should do before anything else since he needed no food, air, or outside else to survive. he pretty much had infinite stamina, of course, he got tried when his body was pushed to the limit. but the system told him to keep going and push through the pain, which he was currently doing it.

He gained the pain after 10 or so swings, he had to pick a stick that was about as heavy as a sword. He was currently sweating heavily, his naked body looked as if he has just taken a bath or something. the ground under him was wet, and his arms were shaking heavily.

this was the thing about Sora, once he put his mind to something he would not stop. bac on earth one might look at his school work and think he was dumb or something, but he simply lacked motivation. give him something to look forward toward, in this case gaining an unthinkable amount of power, then you have a guy who pushes past almost anything if he tried.

Slowly Sora reached 100, as soon as he did the huge stick fell out of his hands and he fell to the ground. He fell heavily on his butt and began to rest. Sora went on to rest against a tree, he shockingly recovered really quickly, and in a few hours, he had returned back normal. something which may have lasted days for a normal human only took a few hours.

{host should do this every day, get used to swinging a sword. it's best you get the human world, I made sure to arrive at age 749, September 1. so today Bulma should find Goku and their journey, it's best to become Master Roshi's student and learn martial arts. you should always learn new things, not purely the sword.} the system said as Sora nodded slightly before standing back and beginning training once more.

it was much easier for him to do 100 swings, but he still had some time to rest for some time before returning back to training. later that day, he went from doing 100s into doing up to 1,000. the improvements in his swings could clearly be seen. unlike in the past, he looked at a master swordsman swinging a huge stick. the swing from his wings caused the powerful winds which shook the leaves on a tree.

in the middle of the night, Sora stood before the tree he tried to cut later that day. grabbing a small stick, he took a deep breath before swinging forward. the tree branch cut cleanly through, only getting stuck when it was about 90% through the tree, but by then the tree began to slowly fall down.

{congrulation on being able to cut a tree down with a simple tree branch... although I hoped to see you cut it cleaning through, the fact this didn't even take 12 hours is too shocking to comprehend. you're an absolute freak. a monster.} the system said making Sora smile slightly before he went on to sit cross-legged on the ground. he promised to start cultivating once he cut the tree down, cultivation was simple, one must absorb energy from around them, and in return, use said energy to refine their body.

energy could be found anywhere, and almost all kinds of energy could be used. of course, on the earth Sora came from, there were no Qi although there was natural energy the human there didn't how to sense it or even absorb it.

the unique thing about The Supreme Sword God Cultivation art is that it allowed him to absorb all forms of energy. the grade of this technique had reached the highest level, allowing it to transcend even things like creation. cultivating this art will Sora a truly supreme being, although it was hard to comprehend, he was able to comprehend it after breaking it down and slowly growing through it until he good an okay understanding of the first part.

of course, this leads to him drawing a lot on the ground. but after 2 days, he finally comprehend the technique and went on to start cultivating it. sitting cross-legged on the ground, the energy of all kinds began being drowned towards Sora.

the solar energy, the natural energy, and so many others were drowned in him. even the lifeform in the tree which he sat upon was being drowned in his body, but not enough to kill the, he absorbed the extra energy the lifeforms around him had to offer. this of course went for animals, this allowed him to absorb the unique energy of this world. Ki.

Ki is also known as latent energy or life force. This force is a tangible energy inside every living being, with its major focus being in the center of the body. By drawing it out, an individual is able to manipulate it and use it outside the body. Ki can be used for many different techniques. Because there are physical limits to the strength of the body itself, it is necessary to increase one's ki to overcome this barrier and become stronger.

Usually, the more concentrated the masses are, the more time the user requires to draw it out by powering up. When fighters gather ki, they are able to gain enhanced strength, speed, endurance, and can increase the power of their attacks to inflict greater damage to opponents. Normally, the more the ki is increased, the harder it is to control, so ki control is also important.

Energy can be lost when the user sustains injuries, you could lose a huge amount of Ki if you suffer too much damage. Maintaining a proper balance between the body and spirit is important in utilizing energy, and the more properly balanced they are, the more energy you can project.

Sora went on to awaken this energy. this was shocking as the cultivation art stated that one could only store energy within their body at level 7 body refining, yet Sora was now about to use his own life form to a greater degree than energy like Qi.

this was simply because Sora's lifeforce was of course not normal, there was also the fact that Sora's physique was unmatched, Ki was what he needed to bring out his full capability. of course, energy like Qi which is used within th cultivation world was not weak but compared to Qi... it was lacking a lot.

{this is quite the shock... then again the people of this world did reach a level capable of destroying universes. that's the level of immortals within the cultivation world. so going of this, I believe Ki has universe potential, while normal Qi has Dwarf Star level capability at most. the host should cultivate, but he should also train so he can increase your KI.} the system said stunning Sora slightly

'does that mean the dragon ball world is stronger than the cultivation world?' Sora asked in shock,

{host, we are just talking about the lower realm, there are many layers within the cultivation world. the dragon ball world should be as strong as the second layer of the cultivation world, the immortal realm. its power would be ranked mid-tier. destroying lowe realms is nothing for immortals} the system said to which Sora nodded slightly

it seems a universe was considered a lower realm, and by the sound of it although the dragon ball world was strong, it was not that impressive within the cultivation world. as for the number of layers, a total of 5 layers the first was simply the mortal realm or universes. the system didn't go into too much detail and seemly explained he should not be looking too high up or he could break his neck.

Sora didn't mind and cultivated, time went by and Sora soon felt like he couldn't absorb any more energy, he felt full. each time he absorbed more energy, he felt like his body might pop. this was known as the gate that blocks mortals from beginning cultivation, one had to gather energy and rush at the gate if they wish to enter 1 level of Body Refining.

of course, there was a chance of a backlash, and if you field you could have to go back to step one once more and gather energy. Sora took a deep breath before he had his energy slam at the gate, the gate flew wide open, and Sora's energy went on to spread out through his body, tempering it and refining it.

{congrulation on entering level 1 Body Refining. note that there are sub-stages at level 1 that are usually ignored. early, mid, and late. these stages could lead to many reaching a bottleneck. the system has adjusted to this world ranking of power... current powerlevel is 25. congratulation host for being stronger than a farm with a shotgun.} the system said as Sora stood up to feel his strength, he felt like he had overwhelming power.

walking over to a tree, he punched it and with a huge boom. the tree was sent falling. Sora was amazed as he looked at his first, he was truly powerful, he was caught off guard, that was just a trouble punch, after all, no Ki or anything.

{host, your physique is not to be looked down upon along with the unique cultivation art you have. there is also the fact you have Ki.} the system said to which Sora nodded in understanding before he slowly began drawing out his ki.

his Ki had a sharpness to it, it was blue in color and gather in his palm as a mess orb. seeing this, Sora knew his Ki control was lacking, so he had to quickly start to fix this. so he sat down and began playing around with the Qi, truly to master his handling with it. with his high comprehending capability, Sora quickly mastered it.

if there were levels of Qi control, ranging from 0 to 10. than Sora just reached 3 within a few hours of playing around with Ki. of course, this was mostly because the amount of QI he had was little, it would of course become harder and harder with more Ki.

Sora next went on to try the Unparalleled Finger Divine Sword. holding his finger out, he closed his eyes and went over the technique for a few hours, before he swung the finger across a tree, leaving a clean cut across the blade. this technique only had 5 levels to it, at the first level Sora's finger was simply a sword that could cut better than most swords.

at level 2, this finger reach could be changed. the more energy, than the reach could easily be changed. but he needed to be stronger before that. Sora's finger felt strange from using this technique, which meant he still needed to cultivate even more. if he didn't cultivate and used this technique too much, then his body would turn into a sword. all techniques had their weakness, Sora simply needed to cultivate to avoid this one.

with that, Sora went on to return to the sword training, he had been in this world for... 5 days now, Sora went on to hold the stick once more for the first time since 4 days ago. with a deep breath, he began swinging his stick.

but to his amazement, the force from the swing leads to a powerful gust of appearance. stunning he looked at his hands in amazement.

{powerful swordsmen are capable to swing compressed air out, which could travel far. the more skilled they are, the further and more powerful these compressed air could be. of course, energy could be used to strengthen these types of attacks. the fact host touched upon this so soon shows your talent, strength is just one of the requirements for this after all.} the system said making Sora smile pridefully.

{host can now comprehend the path of the sword. but it's almost impossible to do so without a sword... the host should challenge the boss to enter the system.} the system said stunning Sora, who remembered that there were floors within the system.

He quickly nodded, and with a thought, he disappeared. something slowly floated to the ground, if come could zoom in to the absolute limit, they would see a small sword that was smaller than anything in existence slowly falling to the ground, and floating gently above the ground as if it didn't float, it would fall through existence.

within this world, Sora arrived before a tunnel which had swords stabbed all over the place these were all normal swords any mortal could use, but in front of Sora was a puppet that held a high-grade sword, nice armor, and gave off a powerful sword aura.

{the puppet has been set to match your strength. it will fight to kill, as you can see you can pick up any sword here,} the system said, Sora nodded slightly before picking up a sword and closely looking at the puppet.

his heart was racing madly, he had never been in a fight before. he would be lying if he said he didn't feel like shitting himself before such a scary puppet? but as the future sword god, Sora knew he couldn't run from a fight. that was even more so when his target was equal to him.

taking a deep breath as the system told him, Sora calmed his heart down. after he was calm he stepped forward and rushed toward the puppet
