I Can Cultivate With a Single Click!-Chapter 124

Chapter 124: Virtual Network!

To avoid being discovered, Su Xiaobai chose to slow down and deliberately put on a black cloak and mask.

After all, this was the Otherworld.

Although two of his attribute panel stats had already reached the level of an ordinary Martial God, the Otherworld was not just home to ordinary Martial Gods…

If he were to accidentally encounter an elite Martial God, an extreme Martial God, a transcendent Martial God, or even a Martial King, his life would be forfeit!

Moreover, his primary goal in coming to the Otherworld City was to catch a glimpse of this world, gathering as much intelligence and profit as possible… especially Great Transcendent cultivation techniques!

If he could avoid fighting and act discreetly, that would be for the best.

“…*%…%!”

Just as Su Xiaobai was approaching, a strange and bizarre voice suddenly rang out.

An alien*.

[Will be using alien for Otherworld’s residents]

At the rank of an ordinary Martial Commander.

Su Xiaobai had already sensed this presence approaching long before, but he neither avoided it nor greeted it. Instead, he simply waited for the figure to draw near.

When Su Xiaobai looked up, he saw a figure over two meters tall, humanoid in shape but with three eyes on its forehead, fiery red skin, and clad in armor, staring at him with an unfriendly expression while speaking in a language he couldn’t understand.

He retrieved a Sound Assimilation Stone from his spatial storage.

The people at the stronghold had told him that with this stone, he could quickly learn the language of the Otherworld…

However, since Sound Assimilation Stones were incredibly rare and expensive, only super bases possessed them.

Coincidentally, the loot from Wu Family’s group had included a significant number of these stones.

As soon as the Sound Assimilation Stone melted in his mouth, the once mysterious and incomprehensible language suddenly became perfectly clear and intelligible—

“…Mask! Take off your mask! This is my third warning!”

“If you refuse, I will execute the rules on you!”

Su Xiaobai now understood every word the three-eyed alien had spoken.

“Looks like this guy is a guard of Otherworld City… So, wearing masks is prohibited in the city?”

“Then I’ll just take it off.”

To avoid drawing too much attention, Su Xiaobai removed his mask.

Seeing this, the three-eyed alien’s wariness gradually subsided.

“Not someone from ‘Four Directions City’… But still, just another worthless low-class being!”

The three-eyed alien took out a glowing stone and spoke into it.

Clearly, the stone was a communication device used for contact and coordination.

“Low-class being?”

Hearing this description, Su Xiaobai raised an eyebrow, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

“Looks like I really need to learn more about the structure of this Otherworld City.”

Slash!

A blade of spatial energy flickered in Su Xiaobai’s hand, instantly slicing the communication stone in half.

Its glow faded, rendering it useless.

Before the three-eyed alien could react, Su Xiaobai moved like lightning, seizing the alien’s throat in an iron grip. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

“Speak another word of nonsense, and I’ll kill you.”

Su Xiaobai spoke in a perfectly fluent alien language.

One Hour Later

Su Xiaobai casually flicked his fingers, sending a burst of fire that reduced the three-eyed alien’s corpse to ashes.

After nearly an hour of interrogation, he had gained a rough understanding of the structure of Otherworld City.

In the Otherworld, Martial Commanders were referred to as ‘Spirit-rank warriors’.

Below the Spirit-rank were various stages—pseudo-warriors, warriors, Martial Masters, and Martial Generals—classified as Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and Tier 4.

At Tier 5, warriors gained the ability to fly, which is why they were called Spirit-rank warriors.

Above Martial Commanders (Spirit-rank warriors), Martial Gods were known as ‘Transcendent-rank warriors’.

Other than these naming differences, ranks like Martial King and Martial Emperor remained the same as on Earth.

Additionally, warriors were categorized into Ordinary, Elite, Extreme, and ‘Quasi-Transcendent’ levels.

However, in Senluo Cloud City, where Su Xiaobai was heading, there was an actual Transcendent-rank warrior stationed—equivalent to an ordinary Martial God!

“Damn! I almost got screwed!”

Upon learning this, Su Xiaobai couldn’t help but curse aloud.

He had initially assumed there were no Martial Gods in the city, which was why he had boldly come here.

But who would have thought a Martial God was actually present?

Thankfully, his instant enhancement ability had pushed his strength to ordinary Martial God level just in time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared approach and would have immediately turned around and left!

The information from the three-eyed alien didn’t stop there.

The Otherworld was primarily divided into cities, much like how human bases were organized.

Senluo Cloud City was merely a lower-level small city, typically guarded by Spirit-rank warriors. However, since this city was stronger than most small cities, it was protected by a Martial God-level warrior.

In larger cities, the guardians were typically at the Quasi-King level.

Above large cities were Giant Cities, ruled by true Martial Kings.

As for what lay beyond Giant Cities? Even the three-eyed alien had no idea—he had never seen a Giant City, let alone anything higher.

Great Transcendent Techniques?

Of course, Su Xiaobai hadn’t forgotten to ask about Great Transcendent cultivation techniques.

But in the Otherworld, there was no such term as ‘Great Transcendent’.

Instead, they were referred to as Super-Spirit-level cultivation techniques!

Only Super-Spirit-level warriors could practice them, which is why they were categorized by rank instead of achievement.

“Then, are there any Super-Spirit-level techniques?”

“No.”

“What about Spirit-level techniques (Lesser Transcendent)?”

“Extremely rare. Unless you pass the ‘Illusory Tower.’”

“Illusory Tower?”

Su Xiaobai’s eyes flashed.

From the three-eyed alien, he had learned an astonishing truth about the Otherworld—

The Otherworld had something akin to a global ‘Virtual Network’, similar to Earth’s Internet.

However, while the Internet functioned through computers and broadband, which had long since vanished after the Great Cataclysm, the Virtual Network was powered by ‘Heaven’s Will’, omnipresent and ever-active!

The Illusory Tower was one of the Virtual Network’s features for Spirit-rank warriors, serving as both a trial and a ranking system.

“If I can clear a certain number of floors, I’ll be rewarded with cultivation techniques and gain the attention of powerful figures in the Virtual Network!”

“It seems there’s far more to this Otherworld than I imagined!”

“How fascinating…”

Su Xiaobai’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

He hesitated no longer and continued toward the Otherworld City.

As he got closer, the differences between the Otherworld City and human bases became more apparent.

Human bases had steel walls to fend off beast tides, while Otherworld City walls were made of dirt—but dirt that was harder than steel!

Furthermore, several glowing formation diagrams were carved into the walls, indicating that defensive formations would activate upon an attack.

Soon, he entered the city.

And when he saw the bustling, otherworldly scene before him, Su Xiaobai’s eyes shone with exhilaration.

“Now this… is exactly the Otherworld I had imagined!”
