Creak.

Creak.

Crash.

Winds that could shake the branches of a tree, rushed forth and lifted the loose soil and dust, under the pressure of a tree that had cracked, and the entire top half came toppling down splintering all over the forest.

[Killed Carnivorous Mountain Bear, Peak first grade +1000 fate particles]

[x2 fate particles for killing creature of a higher grade]

Lirian breathed heavily as little droplets of sweat formed on his forehead.

"Looks like this is my limit," Lirian muttered softly while regaining his breath.

In front of him, the massive body of the carnivorous bear was pierced through by the massive trunk of the tree, it stopped making any noise as its blood sept out onto the bark of the tree, but it's lifeless eye were still fixed on Lirian's position.

Behind Lirian the world looked pretty similar to the sight in front of him, it look like a trail of death that came to an end, from one creature to the next, each one was stronger than the last as they were skewered through from the belly and out their backs, by the trunks of trees that were still firmly rooted in the ground.

Lirian walked up to the bear and patted its paw, it was the only part he could reached with it hanging from the tree, "Thanks for your home, it will become a place of legend, I promise," Lirian said to the lifeless beast with a smile and proceeded toward the bears dwelling.

"This is the place where I will begin my cultivation," Lirian muttered softly as he escaped from the chilly night winds in to a roomy cave, that was empty with the exception of a few withered up skeletons.

Lirian assumed that those had been the bears most recent meals.

Lirian sat down and folded his legs, 'System find the concentration of this worlds energy,' Lirian ordered.

[Initiating… consuming fate particles.]

All worlds have an energy concentration, which most cultivators refer to as the breath of the world, all worlds start with only first grade energy concentration, and every time a cultivator makes a break through, they create a field around them which is known as evolution energy.

Over hundreds of thousands of years, the evolution energy builds up, from the various cultivators that make break throughs and the world itself undergoes an evolution.

Sometimes new continents appear as the world expands, there are new forms of creatures and life that becomes integrated into the world's ecosystem.

The most important part of it is the rise in the worlds energy, the worlds are practically a life, that has a symbiotic relationship with cultivators, cultivators use world breath to increase their cultivation and the world use's cultivators evolution energy to cultivate.

The worlds energy level determines the level of it's creatures and plants as well as cultivators, so if a world was of the second grade, all cultivators would find it easy to achieve the second grade without using any supplements, from the third grade and above cultivation would increase in difficulty, with every stage not to mention grade.

The level of the world would usually determine the level of strength of the world's cultivators.

[Consumed 32 million fate particles, Energy concentration determined to be third grade.]

Lirian nodded his head, 'It's not bad for a world in the mortal realm, it's better than most of the worlds I was born to, if not for the existence of the great civilizations, this would be a pretty advanced world in the mortal realm,' Lirian thought.

'Although I would have preferred if the world was fourth grade, laws should exist in this world but they are likely to be incomplete not to mention rare, and their quality will be on the lower end of the spectrum,' Lirian ultimately sighed.

[Warning.]

{During analyses a neural toxin has been discovered hidden within the world energy, advising host against cultivation until neural toxin is fully analysed.]

Lirian's brows were pulled tight as he frowned, he didn't doubt his system, so he knew that things weren't looking to great, 'Begin an analysis of the neural toxin,' Lirian immediately ordered the system.

As he began to speculate on what the function of the neural toxin was, Lirian recalled two things the emperor had told him about the Nebula worlds.

Supposedly any person with cultivation immediately died upon entry, Lirian doubted that it was the neural toxin as he observed the systems analyses, it was apparent that the toxin wasn't lethal to anything fifth grade and above, but Lirian quickly came to understand why any and all candidates died.

In truth all candidates were desperate to begin their cultivation, they had to endure ten years of watching their class mates cultivate and grow stronger while they remained as mortals, so the moment they were handed their techniques and landed all they wanted to do was cultivate.

From what the emperor had told Lirian the longest that a person lasted was 14 days, Lirian had to assume that it was the neural toxin that did them in and the person who lasted for 14 days likely started cultivating late for some unknown reason or they had a very powerful body that allowed them to endure for a while.

Those that got to come to the Nebula worlds were geniuses in the empire after all, so Lirian wouldn't be surprised of that person had an emperor body.

As the system continued the analyses Lirian rushed out of the cave and cut of flesh and extracted some bone marrow from the creatures he had killed, they did after all possess cultivation.

This made Lirian certain that there was a way to cultivate on this world, world breath was an essential in cultivation unless someone relied on resources, and Lirian had killed so many mystic beasts in a single little region that he doubted that this place could provide so much cultivation resources.

The system began an analysis on the mystic beasts' samples and ultimately came to the conclusion that the neural toxin had no effect on none sentient beings.

Basically, any and all existences that were capable of conscious thought would be killed by the toxin.

'Why the hell would the world place such a stupid restriction, it's like the world doesn't want to evolve,' Lirian complained as he could not understand the decision of the worlds will, because ultimately only sentient existences could go beyond the worlds energy level.

"Forget it," Lirian muttered, "System perform a read of the worlds fate string I want to get an idea of the worlds size, it's continents, it's biomes, the races that exist here, if there are any sentient races as well as their languages, and a basic read on the top level cultivators in this world," Lirian quickly ordered the system.

Lirian knew that this was going to be a costly use of the system but he had to get this done, now that cultivation looked like it might be of the tables, at least until he found a way to separate the toxin from the energy.

[Failure]

[The worlds fate string is protected, host does not posses enough fate particles to override worlds defences]

"What the fuck!" Lirian cried out in exasperation, "Which ever gods have done this I swear that I'm going to add your name my list," Lirian cursed in anger, he felt more blind than ever.

As Lirian fell into contemplation he took a resolute breathe, "Fuck it I have a godly constitution, even my understanding of it is limited but I highly doubt that some fucking neural toxin can kill me, if that's possible than it doesn't deserve to be called a godly constitution," Lirian said in an irritable voice.

Lirian took a seat and immediately, a spherical bubbles that was transparent began to form around him, it was the energy of the world that began to rush towards him and in seconds the entire cave around him looked like a surging tide of world energy.

World energy was always transparent, but with so much gathering, while it was still clear it cut a stark difference with the world all around it as the area of concentration continued to expand in size until a good portion of the region looked like a sphere of concentrated matter.

Lirian had several plans to get ready before he began his cultivation, but first he wanted to get a small taste of what the toxin felt like before he took in a great deal of it.

[Advising host against such action] the system began to blare loudly in Lirian' head, but Lirian ignored it and pulled in a small bit into his body to test the waters.

Almost instantly he felt all the energy he had gathered slip from his control as he fell over and broke out into a fit of coughs.

"Conduct a scan," Lirian wheezed out at the system as he felt like surging tides were rushing through his body trying to tear it apart.

[Initiating…]

[Lethality of the toxin has been neutralized by hosts godly constitution; however, host will be unable to cultivate for two weeks]

Sensing that the danger had passed, Lirian slumped over on the ground completely unconscious.
