Tian- I should have a break through next time I cultivate.
Content with his status, Tian went to alchemy association . He applied for thr exam and answered nearly half of them , he answered them according to what glory city people know about alchemy. After that he was called by the elders and appointed as alchemy apprentice . The elders did not care that much about Xiao tian since he barely passed the exam , that too an apprentice one . They searched for the background of Xiao Tian and found about his lack of talent in cultivation and his goal of becoming scholar so, they were not surprised that he was able to answer some questions and barely make it into alchemy hall but even that itself is a potential talent . They granted him access upto some master alchemy books , now he might not know that much of alchemy but in 20-30 years he might become an alchemy master. Atleast that's what the elders thought.
Xiao Tian went back to his home in happy mood . He is going to breakthrough to silver rank today . Tian completely locked his home and went to his back yard , just to be on safe side he filled the bath tub in his home with herbs that have rejuvenating properties and help in spiritual cultivation .
Xiao Tian started to meditate and the surrounding areas started to get heavy , giving off an eerie aura. Tian felt a tremendous amount of pain in his soul , eyes and mind but he already got used to this pain , after 6 months of painful cultivation . If he stops now , he might damage his soul realm . The pain intensified making him groan a little but Tian didn't gave up , the soul force started to gather around the egg in his soul realm , the spiritual egg had some cracks over it but nothing is coming out while some of the dense soul force started to wreak havoc in Xiao Tian's physical body , fumes appeared from Xiao Tian's body .
Xiao tian remembered the world he is in , the brutality of this world , he didn't ask anyone to reincarnate him here but he has to deal with all this crap . Xiao tian remembered the warning of the catostrophe where he'll die a horrible death if he give into the pain so, he persisted , he wanted to live even if it means enduring this horrible pain . Two snow white wings and a tail with densest soul force formed on his back unnoticed by xiao tian . The egg inside Tian's soul realm started to rapidly crack and converted into soul force , the runes on the egg got imprinted on his soul realm .In the place of egg, a beautiful snow white reptalian like creature with wings appeared despite its pretty looks , it has a proud aura around it, the eyes of the creature are like apex predator that can kill any prey with just it's glare and it's whole mouth is covered with fangs that are dangerous sharp , it opened its mouth like getting ready to devour anything . The Qi around Xiao tian started to swirl around him and soul force inside his soul realm increased in both quantity and quality, the soul force gradually entered the purest state , the reptalian creature started to devour the soul force at the same pace the soul realm is producing the soul force .
Silver Realm 1 star
Silver Realm 2 star
The pain Xiao tian feeling started to vanish slowly after his pain completely vanished , the spiritual beast inside Xiao tian closed its mouth but still had its reptalian slit eyes open .
Xiao tian felt changes in his body , he could think well infact he could think too well and clearly . He could comprehend a lot of things which he had hard time with before reaching silver rank. His perception on many things has changed drastically and he could feel his body which is very flexible and light . He could feel strength in his body which Increased a lot .
He noticed the Qi in his backyard got thinned down and came back to normal levels without any trouble. This surprised him a lot because the Qi here was atleast 5 times more concentrated than outside before but now it got back to how it was .

Xiao Tian felt happy about the rewards . He wanted to complain and shout at the system for giving him such painful cultivation technique but he understood that cultivation in raw slang is a machochistic way to gain power. Not to mention the pain he is suffering is due to the path he choose , he is abandoning his humanity for power so, the price will be inevitably equal . This is the best path for him ,even though it is painful .
Tian - So , i went under succesful soul forming huh! not bad , now my potential is even more enhanced .
Golden white fiery soul force appeared on Tian's finger tips .
Tian- I can feel the density and purity of the soul force , this is the purest form of soul force to exist . This is extremely powerful soul force compared to any normal demon spiritualists , I will see the rewards later , first I should check so-ack!!!
Xiao tian tried to stand up and regretted his decision, his entire body felt sore and he fall down . Xiao tian slowly crawled towards the herbal bath unsurprisingly crawling is easy for him . After resting on the bath tub , his body started to heal at a rapid pace . He planned to go out for treasure hunting after reaching peak of silver Realm but-
