Potential of Crimson World

-Information about Crimson World is free-

-The benefits in the long run would be immense, right now you have only a rock-

-Even if you are a god in that world, you are a god of a rock-

-You can increase the time to 10x speed in the Crimson World-

-But you can't practice there, since Paths don't exist in there-

'I always felt it was a waste that I can't practice there, it's completely safe if I enter with my body, I can control the environment, so if there were Darkness particles, I could pull them all into my area to speed up my training, the benefits would really huge if I could practice there.'

'How do I introduce Paths to the Crimson World?'

-There is an accessible way for the current you-

-First is to increase the land and plant herbs in it, as herb are also classified by Rank. The common ones are neutral, but after than those magical herbs walk on the Paths themselves, it's very slow progress and it depends on the environment if they can progress-

-If host can provide high grade soil to them, they don't need outside Particles to progress, just the soil, in other words they produce Particles and release a certain amount, thus becoming the source of Paths-

-Then to finish the cycle you need to put live animals in the Crimson World, as every living thing leaks a bit of the particles they have in them, and when they die it returns those particles to nature, plus an extra, the particles that are born from their potential and body-

-Introducing diverse herbs and animals and breeding them, could in the end create a perfect replication of the Paths in the current world-

'This is killing many birds with one stone, I could grow the herbs at 10x speed and then use them to speed up my cultivation as well, while developing the world.'

'I could use the animals as a source of existence points, since they breed and are renewable recourse.'

-Reminder, everything in Crimson World can be converted to existence points with just a thought-

'If there are enough particles for a Rank 1 or Rank 2 beast to be developed, it could be a huge source of existence points, and it wouldn't matter if I can't fight them, I'm god in there, one thought and it's dead.'

'The only problems is absorbing living things.'

'I could absorb only common animals right now with my eyes, as they don't have will on their bodies.'

'As for herbs, taking them in is not the problem, getting my hands on them is the real problem.'

As far as Lucien was concerned, it was worth investing in it, so as he proceeded walking, when he felt his Soul recovered completely, he would absorb 100kg of low level soil, then convert it to mid level and spread it around the rock.

Three days later, when he arrived at the area of bandit activity, near the rock, there was 500 kilograms of high grade soil around the rock, or in other words about half a squire meter. For barely Rank 1, he was satisfied, when he peaked Rank 1 with all stats, he would be able to absorb a ton at each go, speeding up the process by a lot.

'It's a nice way to travel, that is 450 unconverted existence points, I really need a manual and then increase stats.'

'It's a regret, I couldn't take those 3 bandits with me last time, I can't pull them in the Crimson World, since their bodies still had will inside them.'

'And it's apparently, bad manners for a high noble vampire to feed in the vision of lower level vampires.'

'Since they considered me pure-blooded, I couldn't just take some measly low grade blood, while they are looking at me, it would throw suspicion, I think they feed their genius children with small amounts of really high level blood, to keep the purity of their own bloodline diluting while aging.'

'They probably thought, my father is feeding me Rank 4 blood or something and if I kept glancing at Rank 0 corpses, it would be suspicious. Whatever it's the start of the year, I have plenty of time.'

Looking around for a couple of hours, inspecting the area from the shadows, Lucien witnessed a couple of fights, some of them were above his level, but it was not between bandits.

This area seemed like it was on the verge of a war, everybody was fighting.

In the end he managed to see a small stronghold, that was held by bandits, it was weird and probably meant there is at least a Rank 1 inside.

'It's a bit of a risk, but there is atleast a dozen of bandits in there and the stronghold is quite big, what is the chance of running into the strongest one.'

'Shit, I jinxed myself.'

'It looks abandoned, they probably took it after the original owners left it to rot.'

'I'll sneak in tonight and have a meal.'

Having decided, Lucien waited, when it was almost before dawn, he snuck in, it was surprisingly easy. The stronghold is hard to guard when the people inside are a dozen.

Hiding in the Darkness he continued combing through the area, until he heard moaning sounds from a small building, that had no guards outside of it.

Looking inside there was a man and a woman tangled up in a fight.

Lucien just waited a bit, while calculating the time till dawn and the moment they were at the peak of the battle, he jumped in.

'Basic spear - Double stab.'

The man reacted quite fast and reached for his weapon, but it was too late, their guard was too lax in their exciting battle and with no time to scream, both of them met their maker.

Lucien didn't bother looking around, he didn't have much time, he just started his meal and finished as fast as he could, it was pretty surprising, when he visualized his existence points, he realized for the 70 kilogram man he got 650 points and for the around 50 kilogram woman he got 450, they were both Rank 0s, and he didn't convert the blood energy, he kept it in his body. Since a human has about 5 liters of blood, it was 50 points less.

After cleaning a bit, he left.

'Get me the best Vampire manual for Rank 0 to Rank 1.'

-1000 existence points deducted-

The first thing Lucien did was to find a hiding spot, that he would use to try breaking through Rank 1 Vampire that would raise his Vitality to 50 and Agility to 40.

He only followed the route on the promotion diagram, and guided the blood energy on the route.

After breaking through 4 of the gates, the energy was almost expended, which would mean he would fail his breakthrough.

'Start converting my existence points into blood energy.'

'If the points are not enough start converting the high level soil to existence points.'

All of a sudden there was an influx of blood energy inside of him, he had 100 existence points left from the meal and about 100 leftover from before, and 450 in high level soil.

It would amount to 11 Rank 0 practitioners if it's all converted back into blood energy.

As he continued to break through the gates, the existence points were lowering and lowering. On the final slam of the sea wave tactic, the 9th door opened, and Lucien had 150 existence points left, which mean to breakthrough he needed the blood energy of 10 practitioners of the same level.

As that mysterious aura from beyond the door rushed in his body and started changing it.

'I guess now I can store blood energy in that door, but that probably won't be necessary, I can always convert it back and forth when needed.'

'I wonder why doesn't it convert the orthodox paths, like Darkness.'

-Darkness particles are produced by the world and thus have the will of the world on them, it's impossible to erase that as a Rank 0, on the other hand the blood energy had an owner who died, to be able to use it, the unorthodox Vampire Path had to erase that will first, which makes you the owner and you can do whatever you want with it, including conversion-

When the aura finished changing Lucien he looked at his stats.
