Chapter 66 - Nothing Really Makes Sense, Okay?
Gravity is a force. It needs a certain mass. Everything that has mass has gravity. If Mike wants to manipulate gravity, he must take care of two things. First, the mass that his body can bear. Second, his aim.
Gravity Control is a special ability, not an innate ability. So, he needs to gain better control over it. Unlike innate ability, the special ability doesn't adapt to his body. He needs to adapt to a special ability. While leaving the house, he asked his system to make a proper explanation for the techniques, arts, abilities, and other cultivation stuff.
So while taking a short break, he decided to read that explanation written by Claire. With his thoughts, a blue screen appeared in front of him.
Meditation Technique- It is a kind of cultivation technique but for meditation. Humans can't absorb the dark energy forcefully, at least most of the time. They need to free their mind and body from everything. They need to enter a state where their body can completely relax.
But most people can't do it. They need a proper technique that allows one's body to enter a meditation state. Doing so, their body will be able to absorb energy from the surrounding. Although his core can create a suction force around his body, the dark energy won't enter his body forcefully.
His Chaotic Path towards Harmony is meditation or rather a dual cultivation technique where he needs to completely relax his mind during sex. Only when he can overcome pleasure during sex, he will be able to absorb chaotic energy created by the yang energy released with each stroke that merges with the yin energy released by a woman.
Yin and Yang make chaos. That is the center point of the Chaotic Path towards Heaven. If he can't enter the meditative state during sex, he wouldn't be able to use the Chaotic Path towards Heaven to its full potential.
Innate Ability- It is a talent that a person possesses. It can be anything from elements to non-elements to weird objects, so anything can be an innate ability. Gravity Control is a special ability but it can't be his innate ability because it doesn't help him in cultivation.
Even fire element is not his innate ability. It belongs to a certain category that can also help in a person's growth.
Special Ability- It is an ability gained after comprehending a mystery. Generally, only A-Rank Skill holds these kinds of mysteries. And, due to the system, he was able to comprehend Gravity Control like talent but not an innate ability.
A person can easily control his innate ability whether he has ten years of experience or one year of experience. How he uses it might be different? But, he can still use it. Because innate ability adapts to his body. He doesn't need to adapt to his innate ability, unlike special ability.
Divine Ability- It is a profound skill that has no limits for growth. It is like an innate ability but related to the skill function. Divine Ability needs two major requirements; Source and Comprehension. Normally, a person who has awakened Fire Innate Ability will have a Fire Source.
Then, he will try to comprehend Fire related divine ability. But comprehension is still a problem. Not many people can comprehend Divine Ability. Comprehension needs enlightenment, only with a calm mind can one enter the enlightenment state.
Except for comprehension, it also needs a powerful source such as physique, bloodline, or S-Rank innate abilities.
Enlightenment state is like the Meditation state except, there is not a single method to written in the book to enter Enlightenment State. It needs talent and luck. Even though Enlightenment God Stone allows one to enter an enlightenment state, it doesn't simply reach such depth.
A person needs to comprehend the laws of nature. That is not something a simple enlightenment god stone can grant. It's pretty much impossible. This is something that separates skills from divine abilities.
Skill- Skills are simply a fighting style created based on their innate ability. A skill also needs source and comprehension but is very low compared to divine ability. This allows humanity to access the skill with the limited talent and resources they possess.
Martial Art- When a human cultivates, he transforms his normal cells into mutated cells. Mutated cells are the reason why higher rank human possesses a stronger body. The mutation is only possible with the help of dark energy.
But many people can have a hard time entering the meditative state due to the limitation of calmness. A person's mind can hardly reach complete calmness. So, humanity found a new way to absorb energy. Martial Arts allows a person to actively absorb the dark energy without falling into the meditative state.
But Martial Arts consumes a large amount of stamina hence it can't long last like meditation though it makes enough progress in a short time. Martial Arts allows a person to enter Single-Thought State. This state is just like a meditative state but instead of having no thoughts, here one thought remains constant on a person's mind.
That thought would be Martial Art. At the same time, he won't feel pain or exhaustion. But once his body stops supporting his Martial Art training, he must stop and take nutrient supplements. If he doesn't stop, he might risk his life.
Physique- A strange, mysterious and powerful body constitution that can help a person possess higher talent in certain aspects such as an affinity with dark energy or higher comprehension. A physique can be related to elements or non-elements. A person possessing a physique can have a high comprehension ability as long as it is a naturally inherited physique.
The Divine Sun Body has two major aspects for power. Immense physical strength and Fire Element.
Bloodline- Bloodline is the most mysterious power that a creature can have. Unlike Physique, bloodline is inherited from the ancestor who succeeds in reaching a powerful realm where he can condense blood essence that holds his cultivation talent and abilities.
'Claire, how powerful are the geniuses from the other races?' After he finished reading the book, a question appeared on his mind.
'Host, Lady Flora is several times stronger than you just by consuming a single drop of dragon blood. Then, just imagine how strong a real dragon can be? Not to mention, that is just a drop of blood of a true dragon. There are several powerful dragons among the dragon race that are stronger than true dragon from birth.'
'There is another race that can be known as talent in the universe. You also know them. They are Alkiwon Race. They have a strong body like a dragon while possessing immense affinity with elements. They are very powerful. If you were to face even one in the same realm, it would be hard to win.'
'There are many creatures that have comprehended divine abilities. Even with the help of the system, you can't show the full power of divine ability due to the lack of strength and source. Host, Claire suggests you focus more on improving each and every ability you have.'
'Try not to improve your rank rather focus on improving your talent.' Claire's voice rang in his mind. This time it was a little soft and cute.
'So, I am not a genius. Well, what can we do about it? Claire, I have a better idea. Would you like to listen?' Hearing her words, Mike fell into deep thought. After a moment, a silly smirk appeared on his face.
"...…" Claire who already knew his thoughts.
'If I can't be a genius and beat them in the same rank, I will reach higher. In those novels, elders use their power to smash the protagonist, so why can't I do it? Not to mention, I am still a junior. Hahaha! My plan is flawless.' Mike wildly smiled with a big arc on his lips.
'It is indeed flawless except some of the creatures are already B-Rank at your age.' Seeing his evil smile, Claire poured cold water into his plan.
'Hmm! Claire, do you think Sex Aura can affect Emperor Realm Women?' Hearing her words, his expression instantly fell but he still kept his composed posture and asked.
'Host, Chaotic Path towards Heaven doesn't work that way.' Claire screamed in his mind making him yell at her 'No matter how do you put it, a newly bought fan will give cool air than two years old fan no matter how much cleaner it is. The same thing goes for the realm.'
'Ahhh! That's doesn't make sense.' Claire exploded in his mind.
'Nothing does! Neither you make sense, nor do I make sense. Neither these power systems make sense, nor does this world makes any sense. I don't understand a shit about being a genius. I have you. I will use you. That's it for me. If there are geniuses in our path, we will crush them together whether it is by sheer strength or by cheating, it doesn't matter.'
'Because nothing really makes sense.'
"...….." Claire remained silent for a long time until she continued 'Host, I really want to get fucked up by you unfortunately, I can't condense a real body.'
Mike was surprised by her words. He smiled and said 'Then, how about doing imaginary sex?'
'That's not possible, right?' Claire's voice was a little humane and awkward.
'Why not? If online video call sex is possible in a long-distance relationship, why can't we do imaginary sex in a short distance relationship?' Mike chuckled and answered with a funny tone. Laughter almost burst out of his mouth but it was stopped by her next words.
'That's just masturbation in a long-distance relationship.'
