Chapter 5 The Awakening
Inside Cyrus's small apartment,
The ethereal black cocoon suddenly started to tremble violently, and it suddenly puffed into black smoke and faded in the air without leaving any traces.
Thereby, Cyrus's naked, skinny body suddenly fell on the rag. He was still all bones and pale yellowish skin with a bald head and 4.3 feet in height.
He looked nothing like Cyrus moments ago, who had dreamy moments with Eve.
However, there was a slight change. On Cyrus's small back had appeared a pitch-black color double edge-blade tattoo, starting from his lower spine and reaching all the way to where the shoulder line starts.
"Ahh, what happens?" Cyrus suddenly groaned as he felt pain from that little impact and all that feeling of pleasure turned into resentment.
There was another significant change that only appeared when Cyrus opened his eyes. His crimson irises had turned from a pair to single. His right iris was still crimson, but his left was now deep blue like Eve's.
Furthermore, Eve's body was also gone.
Cyrus quickly collects his thoughts and himself and sits on his butt. When he saw the familiar shity environment, he couldn't help but smile wryly.
"I'm sent from heaven to this hellhole again." He sighed ruefully like an old man before he frowned, 'Now what? Before getting unconscious, I clearly felt my Prime Dantian and meridians opening, but now I don't feel anything. On the contrary, nothing had changed. Or that was all but a dream, and that technique didn't work?' mused Cyrus gloomily.
As if someone found his words offensive, the same emotionless voice rang in his mind.
______
[The Origin Lust Sword System has been fully activated!]
[Origin Yin and Origin Yang are perfectly in synchronization!]
[Origin Supreme Yin Physique and Origin Supreme Yang Physique had successfully merged into Primordial Origin Yin and Yang Physique!]
______
Before Cyrus could say anything, he felt something slipping into his mind, and his eyes narrowed. 'Memoires?'
He accepted them, and soon realization dawned upon him.
'So, that's how it is. The Twin Origin Lust Sword Scripture was a trial to awaken this Origin Lust Sword System. The cultivation technique is within this System. Truly wonderful,
'I never heard about any technique teaching its inheritor itself and could speak. Not only that, but it appeared the Yin and Yang Physiques somehow merged by the System.' He smiled in satisfaction.
He also said a work that could awaken this 'technique' he received within the memories.
"Status!"
Anticipation shone in his eyes as he watched a white translucent projection materialize in front of him.

Cyrus's eyes shone with ecstasy as he looked at states, but his expression fell when he saw those strange requirements for cultivation increase.
He had no clues about Spirit Points, Lust Experience Points in his Status, and Experience Points in Eve's states.
But when he saw the ability of his merged physiques, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets. He was just too familiar with this name and ability.
'Yin & Yang Fire Manipulation, innately awaken as a mortal?! Is this the potential of merging Origin Supreme Physiques? Truly awestruck! I felt like all my old life was wasted!'
Calming his excitement, he questioned within his mind, "Umm, System, pardon, but can you explain what are SP, LXP, and XP as well as where Eve is and how I summon her? Lastly, if I remember correctly, the Yin & Yang Fire Manipulation required Divine Qi to use. Can I use it as a mortal?"
The System emotionlessly replied.
"[SP, LXP, and XP have some similarity, as long as the User kills someone with Lust Sword, you will be able to acquire SP, LXP, and XP. The stronger person you kill, the more SP and XP you'll gain.]
"[But LXP will depend on the dead person's inner lust! The LXP could also be collected through Sex!]
"[As for the answer to your second question, Host Eve is within Pleasure Space which resides deep within your soul. As long as you can cultivate to a certain rank, you'll be able to enter Pleasure Space any time you want. But for the time being, you can only summon Lust Sword, which is her Sword body. She can also manifest outside if her Sword Body Grade crosses a certain threshold.]
"[Lastly, the Yin and Yang Fire Manipulation is like breathing for a Primordial Origin Yin and Yang Physiques. As long as you have a sufficient amount of Magic Power or Qi, it doesn't matter if it is divine or mortal, and you can use Yin & Yang Fire Manipulation!]"
Cyrus's eyes shone with realization.
'So, that space is called Pleasure Space, and Eve lived there. It might have some other functions, like God Storage Space. If they are the same, I'm quite far from tapping into it.' Cyrus mused, but he was also no longer completely sure.
Since this System has completely broken the hierarchy of knowledge, even Gods possess. Still, it was far better than being ignorant.
'Lastly, I need to kill to raise Eve's Rank while LXP was also the same, but I can acquire them by doing the thing I always do, so this is a plus. As for Spirit Point, they should be like Spirit Qi. If they are, then it is even easier. I just need to practice spirit Qi breathing techniques or find some spirit herbs and pills. I need to confirm it, though...' Cyrus started to make plans to acquire more power.
At this moment, the System's emotionless voice sounded again as the projection changed in front of him.
______
[For being its first inheritor, User Cyrus had been rewarded with three gifts by the System!]
[Do you want to Claim Three Gifts?]
______
Cyrus cocked an eyebrow since he almost forgot about these gifts.
He smiled in anticipation and said, "Let's see if your gift can please this God. I want to claim them!"
