The cultivation sector wasn't like the living sector, as the former was like a dense forest while the latter was filled with cave residences.
There were three regions of the cultivation sector, the training region, where exist the outer sun domain library, and unique cultivation rooms. Anyone can access these two areas as long as they can pay.
Then there was the Open Region which was open to everyone and filled with all kinds of cultivation resources like herbs, ores, and even Qi stones, and Soul crystal could be found in this region.
However, there were also powerful demonic beasts guarding these kinds of territories, and even big-size companies had to be wary of those old monsters.
The problem was this region was all fought over by the big companies, and scraps went to the mid-companies while the small-size companies were like vagabonds who collected the crumbs.
The third region was the Cultivation Tower Region was actually the massive toward in the middle of the cultivation sector. It was a unique place where a union member could participate in Cultivation Tower Rankings.
The higher the ranking, the lavisher the rewards.
The top thousand in the tower rankings could receive 1000 Union Merits every month without doing anything. Furthermore, these types of experts were all members of top companies in the open region, and every one of them was famous in the outer sun domain.
At this moment, White stepped into the training region, which was the first destination of anyone who entered the cultivation sector.
"Little Brother White, may we meet again. Don't forget to visit me once you're free." Clifford said his goodbye before he took out his flying sword and flew away.
"Sure." Ace bid farewell as it was nice to a friendly guy from his own race. If he was not in a bind, he might befriend the guy.
Ace then looked around as he now stood on a grass plain. The forest was three miles away from the entrance, which was also the boundary of the open region.
But he was more interested in the south direction, where stood a tall golden pagoda that was quite eye-catching, and right beside this golden pagoda was a massive golden pavilion.He spotted many union students like him going into the pavilion while the pagoda wasn't as popular as the pavilion.
Ace knew where his destination was, so without hesitation, he took out his own flying sword and flew toward the pagoda because he could see the silver words written on its entrance, 'Union Sun Domain Library (Outer).'
The golden pavilion was marked with the words, 'Union Cultivation Pavilion (Outer).'
So, it was quite obvious where he needed to go, and he was in a hurry to go back so he could start working toward his Heaven's Stealer Mission.
Ace landed on the stone road outside the library and walked toward the entrance. Strangely there was a golden statue of a wyvern in front of the entrance.
"Union Token!"
Ace heard the same voice he had been hearing from the ascension area, which was quite strange as he wondered if this voice belonged to some bigwig who oversaw every important place in the union.
Nonetheless, he took out his union token, and the moment he did, the golden eyes of the wyvern statue suddenly lit up before a golden beam shot from them and landed on the token in Ace's hand.
Ace didn't feel anything besides a warm light on his hand before it vanished, and then he heard the impassive voice.
"Union Student (White), you can choose 1 Upper-Grade Mortal Skill, 1 Second Realm Soul Cultivation Manual from the second floor, and 1 Lower Grade Mortal Skill for free from the first floor.
"If you want to choose more skills or cultivation manual, you will charge with union merits. Every skill, art, and cultivation manual has different prices. You may inquire about them at any time by asking out loud.
"With your current union student status, you have access to the first three floors. Now you have 6 hours to choose before you need to leave, and once you leave, you can't enter again for a month unless you paid union merits."
Done with the introduction, the large door of the library creaked open.
Ace dismissively entered the library, and the moment he crossed the gates, he was astonished when he saw rows of ancient bookshelves filled with books, and there might be tens of thousands of books on those bookshelves.
There are three sections, 'Cultivation Manuals, Cultivation Skills, and Cultivation Arts,' and this was just the first floor which was most likely for Qi Gates Realm. This made Ace quite astonished since he didn't think these guys even had arts for the Qi gates realm.
'These guys are really rich…' Ace thought with shimmering eyes as he walked toward the skills section, which was filled with lower-grade mortal skills.
Those skills were child's play for Ace, so he chose a sword skill called 'Clam Slash,' which he can easily imitate.
"I want Lower Grade Mortal Skill Clam Slash." He said out loud. There was only an introduction in those books, not the full skills.
It was clearly done so other people won't remember any skills they wanted and take advantage of browsing through those high-grade skills.
Suddenly a light flashed out of nowhere, and a gray book with the name Clam Slash appeared in front of Ace. He was astounded as he took the thin book.
"You have used your free chance of lower grade mortal skill book. You will be charged with Union Merits if you choose more lower-grade mortal skills."
Ace chuckled lightly as he stowed away the book before he moved toward the second floor after taking the stairwell at the entrance.
The second was also massive, like the first floor, and virtually the same.
Without hesitation, he moved into the cultivation manual section. He was surprised when he saw there were all kinds of cultivation techniques, including the ones that can increase the chance of awakening a desirable element.
There were some that guaranteed to awaken the mentioned element, but the drawback to cultivating these techniques was the user had to continue to cultivate in the same technique all the way to the eighth realm.
Meaning if someone practices an element cultivation technique that can awaken a dark element, then they need the same technique's higher realm manual or create one themselves.
In the former case, as long as they had manuals for every realm, they didn't need to worry about this problem.
But in the latter case, if by any chance the cultivation manual only has three realms record, then they needed to destroy their own cultivation to re-cultivate in some other technique.
Because creating a higher realm technique for a particular element was only possible for those who had deep knowledge and insight into the element.
That's why these types of techniques were not popular, and everyone decided to choose to follow the path of their innate element and only choose element cultivation techniques after awakening their elements. This way, they won't be able to bind by the same cultivation technique.
However, cultivating in a single cultivation technique had its own benefits, especially if that technique was like the techniques provided by the system.
Still, Ace wasn't interested in those cultivation techniques. He chose a random soul cultivation technique for the foundation-building realm.
He then moved toward the skill section of the second floor and chose another sword skill called Snake Sword Draw. It was a sword drawing skill that resembled his own Twin Demon Emergence.
After claiming all free rewards, he moved toward the third floor!
