Chapter 27 - Awakening of the Grimoire (PART 1)

In a large spacious hall, there was a beautiful and charming 16-year-old with long platinum hair sitting in the lotus position.

About 3 hours later, the young man slowly opened his eyes, showing beautiful purple eyes that had a sharp glow and full of wisdom.

"You can come out, I know you're there, Leticia!" - Said the young man smiling gently as he looked at a not unusual wall.

A few moments later the air distorted and a 10-year-old girl appeared, she had a wide smile on her face and asked. - "Brother, how did you find me?"

The young man smiled and soon holding his sister in his arms he said. - "You have not yet achieved [Great Success] in your [Art of the 1,000 Frozen Illusions]."

Hearing this, the young lady pouted and said. - "Grandpa didn't notice me, even when he's much stronger than you, so as you noticed me, don't lie, tell me the secret!"

Laughing, the young man said. - "The secret is that I am stronger than you, now go and play with your friends, the brother must prepare himself for the Grimoire Ceremony."

"Okay!" - Letícia said with a broad smile on her face, she soon left cheerfully to meet her friends.

The young man smiled gently at his sister and when she finally left, his expression returned to normal and he scratched his chin. - "These collection matrices are garbage, I need to get high-quality materials soon." - Sighing, suddenly his communicator touches.

"Hello?" - The young man asks.

Young Master Julius, I come to warn you to make the preparations for the Grimoire Ceremony, we have great hopes in you! - "Sounded a respectful and animated voice from the other side."

"That's all right." - I said Julius before I hung up.

He then sat down on the floor and looked vaguely at the window, the memories of the last four years began to pass.

Two years ago he advanced to the 8th Layer of [Boundary Breaking]: Purified Spirit.

In this layer, 75% of the Spirit/Soul of the Cultivator is purified, making it several times faster to refine any type of Energy absorbed, transforming it into Qi or Vital Energy.

Julius in his past life unfortunately only touched the surface of the 7th Layer, so he could not receive the benefits of having his Spirit Purified by this Technique, he only got it from high-quality Cultivation Techniques, divine treasures and much more.

But if Julius were to count the percentage of his Soul that was purified at its peak, it would be around 40%, but at only 16 years of age, 75% of his Soul has already been Purified it was around 90%, but he has not yet officially advanced to the 9th Layer, so there is still a small blockage.

Of course, this small blockage is almost breaking, since he is on the 8th Layer for 2 years, he feels that his Soul is about to undergo a qualitative change, something that will make him even more monstrous in the Cultivation aspect.

Julius still remembers that when he advanced, it was a horrible but magnificent feeling.

In the beginning, it was just pain, a hellish pain coming from the deepest place of his soul, he felt as if his soul were thrown into a crusher and at any slip, he would die with 100% certainty.

But after he advanced to the 7th Layer, Julius felt the mystical and pleasurable sensation, as if shackles that held his soul, were broken, he even managed to visualize from above, his body, all this from his spirit, something that only an Expert in the Spiritual Realm should be able to achieve, but with great difficulty.

Such a state is unique in that it can accelerate the speed of Cultivation hundreds of times, without saying that time flows much slower in this spiritual form, allowing a better understanding of its strength.

Julius remembers that in his past life he abused this spiritual form a great deal, something that benefits many Cultivators.

…

One thing that happened in the last 4 years was the constant evolution of the City of the Red River, something that shocked many foreign forces, all because of Julius.

Julius, with his knowledge billions of years ahead, created all kinds of strange machines, which when arriving in the hands of the public, improved their lives hundreds of times, making them simpler and easier.

The communication devices that before could only communicate every 1,000 km², was extended to 100,000 km² and only Julius had the way to create such a thing.

Such a device became something hot, but when they discovered that the Sky'Dragon Family was simply selling such a thing as bread, many who initially bought it for a high price, cursed but did not make much impact, as the Sky'Dragon Family had a Saint Realm Specialist supporting them, as well as a few dozen Transcendents.

It can be said that the Sky'Dragon Family has already become one of the 20 greatest forces in the world, but due to their little greed, they have not expanded to other lands, they have only continued to develop their city, making it completely different from the rest of the world.

Some firearms could cause great damage using Qi as a source of energy, as long as one bullet was formed, killing a Gold Fighter with one shot would be no problem at all, if a Firearms specialist used it, he could even kill a Spiritual Master with a little difficulty.

One thing that became a very hot item among the rich, where the flying cars, such cars that run on Qi or any kind of Energy, it was difficult to build, but it had the flying speed of a Transcendent, but its cost was absurd, not only to create but also to maintain it.

So less than 100 have been created so far, of which 80 have been sold to various powerful and wealthy organizations that have displayed their wealth to those without a flying vehicle.

[Lich: Don't underestimate the Cultivators, they're already using flying cars.]

[Undead Narrator(N°821): They are flying in space soon.]

Another thing worth pointing out in the last 4 years is about the poor Fallin Family.

They couldn't stand the pressure, the constant evolution of the City of the Red River, as well as being ignored and treated like idiots by the rest of the city, not even those who once firmly supported them, was more on their side.

In the end, the Fallin Family left and sought protection with the Sect of Ghost Steps... unfortunately 2 years later the Sect itself collapsed.

Due to the conflict that their Sect Master had with Zero, many saw the Sect of the Phantom Steps as a porcupine that will treat pain for anyone who supports them, without saying that to stay in good terms with Zero and the Sky'Dragon Family, some organizations made life even more difficult for the Sect of the Phantom Steps.

And because of this, the disciples who entered the Sect in recent years were practically zero, just as many disciples left, even the elders will leave, no longer enduring the humiliation.

Last year the Sect of the Phantom Steps officially fell apart.

The Master of the Sect, ashamed, took his disciple, Ramon Fallin, to train alone and before he disappeared, Ramon Fallin promised that he would take revenge, even if it would cost his life.

And now... well, nobody knows in which gutter the Fallin Family or the former faithful members of the Sect of Ghost Steps are.

One thing that many remember is that years ago the Master of the Ghostly Sect came to beg Zero for forgiveness, but Zero didn't listen and just said. - "Do you know why I didn't kill him in the past? It was so that you would fall where you are now, you came with arrogance and killed innocent people for no reason, something that you did not need for, now suffer for your sins."

In the end, the Ghostly Sect of Steps no longer exists, its Master and gifted Disciple disappeared from everyone's sight and no one knew their whereabouts.

…

Soon the night slowly arrived and Julius in a white tunic went with his relatives to the place of the Grimoire Ceremony.
