While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Chapter 9 - Preparation Part 2



"It can't be that I am the only person that can LVL UP because the guard was LVL 4,"

{Obviously not, although you are unique and LVL UP, other people in pursuit of strength cultivate through using the world's and special item's energy} stated the system.

​​

"Cultivation like those novels and movies," exclaimed Adam in shock.

{Cultivation is the improvement of oneself and uses energy to either cultivate their physical body or their energy storage and manipulation ability}.

{External cultivators temper their body using energy and intense training, storing the energy in their bones and muscles, while Internal cultivators cultivate their internal organs, meridians and dantian and store energy in meridians and their dantian} explained to him the system.

Digesting the information, Adam began to understand how ignorant he was and how dangerous the world really was.

The only reason he would be able to stay calm in such a situation and believe everything he was told was because of his Hunter's mind and everything he had seen.

[Does that mean that security guard was a cultivator] asked Adam.

{He is merely a lowly bodybuilder and levelled up through eating large amounts of food and training his body, but he didn't use energy to cultivate}

"That makes sense a cultivator wouldn't be that weak, but this just made everything much more dangerous," he mumbled to himself in thought.

[The only thing that ensures my safety is strength, enough strength for me to protect myself and my Aunt].

[What type of cultivator am I] he asked the system, excited to begin cultivation and pursue strength that he had seen in novels and movies.

{Like I have told you before you are unique and do not cultivate but LVL UP and are therefore not restricted by cultivation laws, such as requiring cultivation methods of higher levels and skills, all you need is to defeat as many beasts as you can in the dungeon} repeated the system.

[But that doesn't answer my question, what kind of cultivator will I be, will I focus on my body or energy storage] he refuted.

{You are neither and both, when you LVL UP everything about you increases and you have an additional stat point to spend on a stat, External Cultivators would focus on physical attributes such as Strength, Speed, whereas Internal Cultivators would focus on Intelligence and MP, and would use the energy to reinforce and strengthen their bodies}.

{So overall you have a unique constitution and are only restricted by yourself}.

"So that means while others cultivate, I LVL UP in my sleep using the dungeon system" he mumbled.

Bombarded with so much information, Adam took a seat on his comfortable sofa and began to contemplate and plan what he would do in the future.

After almost an hour Adam jumped up and felt enlightened about the world and as though he had a clear plan.

[I will be both an External and Internal cultivator and will LVL UP as fast as I can and get as much money and points as I can for weapons in the modern world and skills and weapons in the dungeon, and to protect myself and my Aunt I need Strength and Wealth] he decided.

Thinking that he felt his stomach rumbling and realised he had forgotten all about food for the day, and despite feeling that he had enough energy to sustain his body, he still enjoyed the feeling of eating.

Leaving his apartment he walked down the corridor and down the stairs, deciding not to take the lift due to him being constricted and not able to escape.

Downstairs he received smiles from the receptionists and nods from the security of the building, who he ignored and went to the food area that was on the ground floor.

The food was very expensive and the Adam from the day before wouldn't even dare to look in that direction.

Adam ordered two large steaks and a salad that would be taken up to his apartment.

Returning to his apartment, Adam had no time to waste and in the 15 minutes he would wait for his food, he was memorising the map of the area 5 miles around him.

He found that his memory and concentration was enhanced by his Intelligence stat and his Hunter's mind, but it was still too easy.

By the time his food arrived he felt familiar with the area around him and felt he could recall the entire map if he concentrated.

Taking the tray of food from the man that delivered it to him, Adam placed it on his table and lifted the cover,

As he lifted the cover, the luxurious food revealed itself as a strong smell of deliciousness entered his nose.

Adam drooled at the sight of the food and was excited to eat.

He had the feeling of luxury and wealth and looking around him he was grateful for how the system was able to change his life completely in a single night.

"If only my Aunt was here," he said regretfully.

"So I need to LVL UP quickly and defeat beasts to get my Aunt the healing pill" stated Adam.

Eating the delicious steak which melted in his mouth, Adam was happy but it was suppressed by the regret of his Aunt not being with him.

[System how come I can recall the entire map I was trying to memorise within only 10 minutes] he asked, finding it weird.

{Another effect of Hunter's mind is that you can filter what you need to remember and know from useless information which in turn gives you a similar effect to photographic memory} answered the system.

With this, Adam wanted to store as much useful information as he could before he went into the dungeon again.

Looking at the clock on the wall he saw that it was almost 4 pm and he only had 6 hours before he returned to the dungeon.

He was both anxious and excited, but he still managed to stay calm.

Adam wolfed down his food, which as it entered his body instead of being digested as it would normally, it seemed to be transferred into energy that he felt circulating in his body.

Placing the empty tray outside his door to be collected by the cleaners, Adam headed straight to the computer that was in each of the bedrooms.

Going into the second best room, leaving the best for his Aunt when she recovers, Adam began to research on animals, ecosystems, survival skills, maps of the surrounding area, and anything he could find about cultivation.

"This is going to be a long 6 hours" he muttered feeling the strain on his mind already.
