Re:Immortal

Chapter 84

Omis's cultivation was smooth sailing, after setting out the flag formation, his cultivation speed instantly soared as he bulldozed through the levels.

If anyone on the mortal realm, the Heavenly realm, or even the Underworld heard of his feat they would surely go green from envy.

People spent hundreds of years even thousands painstakingly cultivating all the while risking their lives in search of heaven-defying treasure and fortuitous encounters all in hopes of advancing forward. Yet here he was, breaking all common sense with his ridiculous speed.

His once small chaos energy core was now as almost as big as the one formed with his Qi! His rank was now at the peak of the Immortal Venerable a hair away from breaking through the God realm with Chaos energy!

Seeing how easy it was to get to this point Omis had allowed himself to let his guard down a little, he shook his head trying to rid himself of any useless thoughts as he realized that the next step might be the most important one.

"My battle prowess is now almost the same as two Rank one 'Original' God realm cultivators. I'm still lacking a bit compared to a second rank, breaking through into the God realm with chaos energy should be enough for my cultivation powers to soar past the first rank and into the second one." He muttered to himself before closing his eyes once again in meditation as he calmed his nerves and cleared his mind.

Once he felt that he was ready, his Chaos energy core suddenly started to spin wildly, unalarmed he continued to will more and more energy strands to it as it kept growing larger and larger.

Breaking into the God realm using Qi was a complicated process, back when Omis was still in the 'game' he had to face three trials to step foot into the God realm.

Oncw a cultivator had reached the peak Immortal Venerable stage they had the right to proceed in the trials.

The first was a trial that tested their battle strength, as the cultivator would be whisked into a dream realm where he or she would be forced to battle their clone.

If they win they proceed into the next stage, if they lose they risk suffering irreversible damage to their core.

The second trial was a puzzle of sorts, Omis frowned recalling that, he had found himself in a small mortal village, he knew that it was an illusion beforehand as he had heard about it from his guild master.

The peculiar thing was it was never the same illusion for another player, he had spent countless game hours trying to decipher the puzzle as he lived in that small village for a long time before finally getting it right.

He still felt as if he was cheated when he recalled how much time he had wasted on that trial, how was he supposed to know that all he had to do was feed a homeless man!

"Ridiculous, what was the point in all of that!" He growled as he recalled that before shaking his head to rid himself of such distracting thoughts.

The third trial was the most mentally draining one, he had found himself inhabiting bodies of different people, to each he was forced to make an important life-altering decision.

Some were relatively easy, as he thought of the people as simple NPC's so he had no problem taking any ruthless decisions as long as he felt was the right one.

The hardest part was that it continued, from one body to another, from one life to another, from a king who was forced to choose between his son or his country to a soldier who was forced to choose between his life or his companions.

One life after another, one decision after another, it frustrated him to no end as he did not know whether there was a set number of lives he had to experience or a special decision he had to make.

The trial continued until he had found himself inhabiting the body of a father with two cute twin little girls, the father was an outer disciple in a medium mortal sect when the girls caught one of the elder's eye.

He had given the father a choice of which child to give him as he could keep the other one. At this time, Omis was annoyed by the sheer amount of lives he had to go through and the fact that there was no end in sight for the trial.

So in a futile act of defiance, he had chosen not to follow the rules and instead chose to run away from the sect with both of his children, he did not know if he would fail the trial for not sticking to the rules but he was past the point of caring.

Needless to say, the elders had easily caught up with them and ended up slaying him and taking his children away, as Omis was getting ready for a notification that notified him of his failure to pass the test he was surprised to find out that he had passed!

His brows suddenly scowled as he found himself unable to recall anything that had happened after that!

"Wait! I know that I had passed the test, but...I can't recall anything after that!"

Reaching this train of thought, his chaos core that was slowly accumulating more and more energy, suddenly started to pulse!

Omis's face was instantly drained out of blood as he had lost his concentration for a second and now was facing the risk of cultivation deviation!

The large red-colored core started to spew strands of energy all around causing his original golden Qi core to retaliate.

The two different energies once again started their battle inside Omis's body as an unbearable sharp pain stabbed him in his abdomen area, yet he had no time to rest as he knew that if he did not do anything he risks the collapse of both Cores!

Using his divine sense, Omis attempted to forcefully separate both energies yet that only served to make things worse as the energy strands continued to trash inside his body.

Seeing that there was no use, Omis was simply unable to control neither the Qi nor the Chaos energy, his face held an anxious expression as he racked his brain trying to think of a solution.

It was then that an absurd idea befell him.

"I don't have any other choice! I'll have to risk it!"
