great improvement
Sora swung the sword towards the puppet, but the puppet swung the sword, cutting through Sora Sora like it was nothing. Sora quickly moved, barely dodging the sword which almost took his head off, but he missed looked the puppet's leg, which kicked him hard in the stomach, sending him shooting backward while throwing up slightly.
Sora fell heavily to the ground while holding his stomach in pain, after some time he slowly got up before grabbing a new sword. the puppet didn't follow him, it seemed to only attack when he attacked.
Sora looked at the sword he picked up, before remembering how the puppet cleanly cut through his last sword. it was not purely the sword the puppet held, that unique aura the puppet had, allowed the puppet to cough through steel like it was nothing, cutting wood, and steel was two different things after all.
that aura seemed to enhance its ability to cut stuff, Sora felt like he was about to step into a new world, yet something was blocking him. he thought for a moment before rushing towards the puppet, he needed to feel that aura a few more times,
Sora went on to swing the sword once more at the puppet, but like last time, the puppet easily cut through his sword. he once more dodged the sword, with greater ease than before, before dodging catching the puppet's kick, Sora roared as he knocked the puppet down, but as the puppet fell its other leg came flying towards his head.
Sora was barely able to block, but he was sent flying, he slammed heavily onto the handle of a sword before he fell to the ground in great pain. it took some time before he slowly stood up, that kick had knocked him out for some time. sitting down to rest, Sora looked at the puppet in shock.
"We have the same powerlevel, yet it's so much stronger than me," Sora said softly,
{that may be true, but it has better control of its power and knows how to fight. you only have power. just so you know, it's only waiting for you to attack because it disdains to fight a weakling like you, as your skills improve, it will start fighting seriously.} the system said, Sora smiled slightly as he felt his blood boiling.
"that's fine with me. I feel like I'm about to touch upon something," Sora said as he grabbed onto two swords before he shot forward. with two swords in each hand, Sora swung towards the puppet, for the first time, the puppet dodged, before stabbing towards an opening. Sora quickly dodged, before he swung forward with his sword.
the puppet dodged, before cutting Sora's swords when they were perfectly lined up, but at that time it swung, Sora moved behind it, wrapped his arms around it, and gave it a suplex. a unique opening Sora noticed every time it swung its sword, the puppet seemed to have contracted before swinging, Sora took that chance to get around it while it was cutting his swords.
{such a unique mind, you seem to be a quick learner host. this would have never happened if the puppet saw you as a worthy target... no, you were just a freak, seeing though that its weakness. and putting a plan into action to win.} the system said as bright light opened at the end of the tunnel,
Sora noticed that the puppet had to contract before cutting his sword the first time, it was like a feeling he had. as if all the puppet contraction was forced on the sword in his hands, which was why Sora could dodge its sword. he got two swords, as he believed the puppet could not contract on more than two things at the same time or something like that. but when the puppet moved to swing the sword when they were perfectly lined up, he realized an opening had appeared, so while it was forced on the sword, he moved behind it.
Sora walked through to the bright light, before finding himself in a new world. looking around in confusion, Sora felt a new energy.
{welcome to the first floor, the farm. this is a world that is endless, infinite in size. all things grown here will grow 1.5 times faster than in the outside world, they would also be of higher quality and grade than in the outside world. of course, there are ways to increase this time. there are 10 puppets that host most defeats before heading to the second floor. each puppet will increase the time things will need to grow. note, that plants are not the only thing that grows faster here. ores and lifeforms will grow faster here. including one cultivation.} the system said as Sora breathed the pure sweet hair.
{also, note you are a god here.} the system said, stunning Sora slightly. with a thought, Sora found himself floating up. with a thought, Sora freely teleported all over this world and could see anything he wished to see.
{the energy here is called Qi, it's the purest form of it, as you might guess, the amount of Qi will increase as you defeat more puppets.} the system said, as Sora nodded before he tried to fly towards the sun. but he slammed upon the barrier, which made his head dizzy
{the sun is off limit. please force on what's available.} the system said, to which Sora nodded slightly before landing on the ground. he looked around for what he could do but found nothing
{host can train with the puppet you have defeated. note that although you can bring it outside, its strength in the outside world would be limited to 3 levels above your own.} the system said, Sora nodded in understanding, before having the puppet appear before him.
its damaged head had recovered like it was never damaged. still, holdings its high-grade sword, it stood tall before Sora. this was one of the simple puppets, at the lower levels of the Sword Dao, it only had a sword aura which meant it had stepped into it.
Sora had all the normal swords from the tunnel appear, picking one of the swords. he carefully thought about what he was going to do.
"I want to fight using 2 swords, dual wielding," Sora said softly as he picked up another sword. with two swords in his hands, he faced the puppet and set its level to be below him. after which, he went on to fight it. even when weaker, the puppet showed its skill, it was too weak to cut through his sword, but it badly damaged them.
they tried countless blows, and slowly Sora was being covered by his own unique sword aura, the barrier of experience the puppet had quickly broke through, as Sora comprehends the first level of the Sword Doa, sword aura.
with this aura, one is able to cut through anything. steal, a diamond with this, it, of course, fave one a boost of power, a +10 to one powerlevel.
{... only 5 minutes?} the system was clearly dumbfounded by what just happened, Sora was a freak. it would take some people hours to years to step upon a path. yet Sora took 5 minutes? that of course adding the time within the tunnel, Sora's skills with the sword were clear to anyone.
Sora looked at the defeated puppet which was quickly recovering as if nothing happened, Sora had cut it up, and it simply put itself together within seconds. Sora looked at his sword, before falling into deep thought.
"Everything has its own rhythm, force upon it and you could cut anything. the sword aura only has 3 levels, system what is above level 3?" Sora asked calmly.
{host, sword intent is above Sword aura. with Sword's intent, anything could be cut. water, fire, spirits, and so on. anything in existence shall be cut. not that with each level, the powerlevel it brings is 10 times. at level 1, it's a simple 10. but at level 2, it's 100. at level 3 1,000} the system said to which Sora nodded slightly.
before he looked at the puppet, he went on to have the puppet be equal to him in strength, and so the two began fighting. Sora had a harder time fighting the puppet, fighting with two swords with someone as strong as he was of course harder than fighting someone who was weaker. be fore, he relaid on speed, but now, the only thing he could rely on was the fact he had an extra sword to find an opening.
slowly, Sora got used to dual willing. his mind seemed to split, one mind for his left hand, and another for his right hand. the puppet was quickly overwhelmed, as it felt like it was fighting two people. it was quickly defeated within a few moves.
{... 1 hour to master dual wielding?} the system said in shock. dual wielding needed two requirements, one was for one to multi-task. for one hand to act and do their own things. this could be something as simple as 1 hand drawing something, while the other hand wrote about the picture at the same time.
the second requirement was for both hands to have enough power to freely swing a sword. if the arms were too weak, then they would not be able to swing a sword. although there were many types of swords, some that could be used with one hand. who can say their left hand is as strong as their right? who could say, they can freely switch between their hands like it was nothing?
Sora meant all the requirements for this in an hour, which was of course shocking, to say the least, as cultivators could spend years trying to do this.
Sora smiled slightly as he swung both swords around, he was not a righty or lefty, he was both, his powerlevel also increased upon reaching this level. of course he was twice as strong, those who could dual wield would make others feel as if they are fighting two people.
"let's fight until I reach a new level," Sora said as he made the puppet strong, but this time he had its powerlevel be 10% higher than his own. and with that, he began fighting the puppet, fighting something so strong as a great tool to push himself, cut appeared all over his body and he was quickly pushed backward with each blow from the puppet.
increasing its powerlevel by 10% meant an overall boost in its states. meaning speed, defense, strength, and so on. Sora was of course overwhelmed, but not by too much that he couldn't fight back or use the puppet's weakness to his advantage.
a few hours went by before Sora defeated the puppet. he was covered in blood, it was clearly not an easy win. falling to the ground, Sora closed his eyes as he thought about the fight, he did improve slightly but the improvement was nothing too great.
"this puppet level is too weak, if I was a saiyan then sure it would be useful, but I'm not," Sora said softly as he called opened his state.

Sora cultivation improved slightly. the body cultivation just showed how strong one's body was, meanwhile the energy cultivation showed what strong the energy was. Ki was the lifeforce, so it grow as Sora's physique grew. Sora was pushing himself and was growing stronger through battle, so he went from an early level 1 body refinement, to a late level 1 body refinement, if this was Qi, only the body would have improved.
the body and energy each had their own cultivation, so they shouldn't be measured together. since the body and energy both were used, they were not simply added together, it was 16 times 2.5, which gave Sora 40, plus the Dao, that was plus 10 equal 50.
{host, you should know, your powerlevel is higher than what's shown. your powerlevel will increase with a sword, and drop without a sword. your powerlevel would almost double with two swords in your hands. at must hosts, powerlevel will be 75.} the system said to which Sora nodded in understanding before sitting down to cultivate.
he of course could cultivate faster here, it was filled with energy, allowing Sora to cultivate so much faster than the outside world. time quickly went by, and in a hours days, Sora let out a deep breath as his cultivation improved to level 2 body refinement,

{improvement looks small, but the host should know that those at level 2 body refinement only have a powerlevel of 5. while those at level 2, only have a powerlevel of 10. host strength is more than 6 times those of the same level. that's not adding the Dual Wielding.} the system said making Sora nod slightly before he returned
Sora went on to use the Unparalleled Finger Divine Sword, this time that strange feeling had disappeared. he ended to cultivate a bit more for it to completely disappeared. maybe at level 3 and it would have disappeared completely.
Sora went on to cultivate once more, his cultivation didn't become unstable, so he had nothing to worry about. Sora went on to end cultivation there,
"I should go find Master Roshi. I should try and use Ki to fly." Sora said as he remembered the anime, of how they showed how to fly. Sora had more than enough Ki to fly, and so with a few minutes he was about to fly with great diffusivity. a few minutes later, he stabilized himself and could fly around. a few more minutes, he was flying around like a rocket,
nodding his head, he left the space appearing at the spot he seemed to have entered the system thought, although looking around, he had moved around slightly. it seems the system had moved with the wind or something,
Flying up, Sora shot into the sky and began his search. it's been 6 days since he came into this world, it was not going to be easy to find master Roshi as he lived on an island in the middle of the ocean.
