The True Power of Comprehension & (Extra Info)

The darkness slowly faded and Novis found himself staring at the night sky. At this current moment he couldn't be bothered with anything, he was engrossed in the memory of his recent battle.

A tinge of fear was etched into his very being, all of the 'What Ifs' were flocking to him. They were slowly ripping at his mentality, little by little his mindset was changing, from the quiet kid in a bookstore.

To a cold hearted protagonist who had to face life and death challenges daily without rest. His mind was slowly easing into its new setting, so he was not used to the many things he just experienced.

At the time this all happened he felt as if he was playing a video game, it didnt feel real at all.. Until he felt the shadow of death that loomed over him, that primal fear of death had awoken. And for him who lived a moderately peaceful life on earth, it was a bit much to handle..

"I.. I almost died.. No wait.. I.. I survived.. hahahaha.. I.. I won!"

However, after the storm comes the shine of the sun, in.. most cases at least. And in this case the sun beamed down onto him, and he relished in the fact that he survived.

"System! I lived, I fucking lived! hahahah.. ahahahahahahaha!!"

[Calm down, its not a big deal. It was only your first life or death battle.]

"Thats even more reason to be happy! Im aliveeeee!"

He got up and yelled at the too of his lungs into the sky, waking up numerous animals. Most went back to sleep, and some ran away to find a quieter place to rest.. But others…

*DING!*

"This.. what angry animals I don't hear or see anythi-"

Just like last time, Novis summoned the map, and there he saw a massive wave of red dots swarming towards him.

"What the! Hows that even fair I cant beat all of these! And where is my EXP for killing that bear thing along with the ghost girl?!"

[Tch. I would've hoped you had forgotten about that.]

"The fuck is wrong with you?!"

[The fact thats I'm bonded to you.]

•[Your level is now 10! You have unlocked the [Shop] Menu!]•

[Goddamn it.. How did I get stuck with such a monster..]

"PFFFFT! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

[Fu- you know what I cant..]

"Man this is actually pretty easy. Seems like I'm gonna be one of those balance breaking protagonists!"

[Sorry to burst you bubble kid, but leveling will get significantly harder now.]

"..What?"

[Focus on not dying first.]

'What did it mean by not dyi-'

Suddenly a shadow appeared in front of Novis, and rows of sharp teeth suddenly appeared. Of course with Novis's new stats which were all over 60 and an inch closer to 70.

His {Battle Prediction} skill could now be used freely since he was significantly faster than the opponents.

*DODGE*

*DODGE*

*DODGE*

Every wolf that came at him was dodged easily, but there was also a problem.. His weapon couldn't cut or pierce them so how could he even fight back without being ganged up on?

(If he took the time to break ones skull with full force using the blunt side of the sword with two hands, he would be attacked by another wolf as soon as he swung.)

But then thats when a light bulb seemed to go off in Novis's mind.

"Wait a minute, if I cant fight them with the real sword.. Why don't I use my hand as a sword instead!"

Of course Novis's idea was not bad, since he had the attack power necessary to cut things with his bare hands.. Except he did not learn any aura skills, and did not have any sort of sharp accessories. So how could his bare hands rend flesh?

"HAA!"

He struck down with his hand which was currently flat with his fingers extended outwards. He squeezed all of the muscles from his hand to his elbow, and made use of his new physical power.

He hit the wolfs head and with a crisp cracking sound its skull had been smashed and it was dead.

He jumped out of the way because another wolf instantly pounced at him. It was angry at the killer of its comrade. Of course Novis had already expected something like this to happen and soon developed a rhythm.

This scene repeated 29 more times, each one being more accurate and deadly than the last..

[He's learning…]

For some reason there was a weird aura around Novis, and he went on to chop the air with his hand like a sword. He then switched his target to the trees and breaking them, this scene kept repeating until..

A sharp aura could be felt from Novis's palm, and every time he chopped at a tree a small sword-like cut would be left..

[How can this be?! Hes actually comprehending the sword law at this very moment?!?!]

Exactly. This was the power of the sub-rule of the {Law of Sword} this sub-rule is called, {Everything Is A Sword, And A Sword Is Everything}. And Novis has used the passive skill {Comprehension State}, albeit unknowingly, to comprehend a smidge of this law.

This happened because of his sheer will-power and determination to actualize his imagination. He wanted to be able to cut things with a single chop like cultivators in Xianxia novels. He also deeply admired swords and bladed weapons in general, and thus he formed a teeny tiny connection with the {Law of Sword} and was allowed access to its sub-rule.

(Extra Info Time!

Note: this will get extremely confusing, So im gonna waste like 1 more chapter and explain everything to you so you can understand. Then im gonna give you more chapters with good stuff to make it up to you.)

You see, in this cultivation world everything works differently. Yes people cultivate and cultivation methods, pills, techniques, and alot of other things are the same. But the foundation of it all is different, here everyone cultivates with whats called a 'Spirit Orb'.

Each persons spirt orb had specific color and this color was a indicator of talent. The wisps inside the orb also mattered, because it practically told you what cultivation your destined to reach. And what element you'll have.

Grey - No Talent

Red - Peak of Qi Refinement

Orange - Peak of Foundation Establishment

Yellow - Peak of True Weapon Forming/ Gold Core

Green - Peak of Core Shattering/Nascent Soul

Blue - Peak of Soul Shell Re-formation/

Purple - Peak of Transcendent Rebirth

Black - Immortal

White - Golden Immortal
