'Is my body really that bad, System?' he asked.
<Yes. Aside from the ones whose cultivation base has been crippled, You have one of the worst bodies on the whole planet.>
Ning felt like crying when he heard this. 'Why is that so?' he asked.
<Your body was born and raised on Earth, a place with no special energy>
<So you were not adapted to the Qi in the environment>
<A few more years on Planet Kumia should help you improve your Body's potential by a lot>
Ning calmed down a little after hearing what the system had to say about his body. 'So the lack of potential is just temporary, huh? Hopefully, it grows enough to be at least the tiniest bit helpful,' he hoped.
It was still nighttime, but he had no problem seeing anymore. The moon was out bright, and thanks to being a cultivator, he could see quite well even when seeing through the human eyes.
He looked at the different people currently bathing and wondered, 'has someone in here broken through twice?'
He didn't know what the cultivator's levels were, so he couldn't tell how many had even broken through once. In fact, he couldn't even tell if one really was a cultivator before breaking through.
'I can't let it go on like this,' he thought. 'System, is there a way for me to tell apart their cultivation?' he asked.
<Host can buy 'Qi Cultivation Analysis' from the shop>
<Qi Cultivation Analysis cost 4,000,000 Energy>
'That… is very cheap. What's going on system? Is this a bad skill or does this have some sort of restriction? What does it do?' he asked.
<Qi Cultivation Analysis lets you analyze the cultivation of anything that can cultivate>
<The cost of analysis is a very high amount of mental strength>
<Higher the difference in Cultivation, the more mental strength is expended>
<Qi Cultivation Analysis can be done in 3 layers>
< the First layer only analyzes Cultivation Base>
< the Second layer analyzes the Name of cultivator and Cultivation base>
< the Third layer analyzes the Name, Cultivation Base, and all techniques of the cultivator>
<Each additional layer doubles the Mental strength cost>
'So in other words, it's extremely taxing on the mind, which is why it costs so little, huh?' Ning asked.
<Yes>
'Sigh.' Ning debated for a while as to whether or not he should buy it. But seeing that it cost so little, his heart was easily swayed. 'I will just stop using it if my head hurts,' he thought.
'Alright, buy it,' Ning said.
<Congratulations, You have received Qi Cultivation Analysis>
'You say Qi Cultivation Analysis, so I assume there are other forms of Analysis as well?' Ning asked.
<There are many other types of Analysis such as Body Cultivation Analysis, Equipment Analysis, Artifact Analysis, Pill Analysis, Dungeon Analysis, Hunter Analysis, Adventurer Analysis, Mage Analysis, Zombie Analysis, Beast Analysis, etc>
<Only a few of these would be useful to Host for now since you are in a Cultivation World>
<You can learn the other ones if you ever visit the other worlds>
Ning was a little overwhelmed by the sheer amount of choices. However, since they would be mostly useless to him now he stopped bothering with them.
Now that he had a tool to exactly tell apart someone's cultivation, he decided to use it. He looked at one of the women washing their bodies and stared for a few seconds. Suddenly, the word Qi Condensation 1st realm popped into his mind.
'Oh, so breaking through once only puts you on the 1st realm, huh?' he was a little taken aback. He had assumed that gathering Qi alone was enough for one to enter the Qi condensation realm, but it seemed that only put them onto the path of a cultivator.
One had to still break through from being a mortal human to become a proper cultivator.
He switched his gaze to an older man who was bathing himself. He was at Qi Condensation 1st realm as well. Ning looked through the different people and they were all at Qi Condensation 1st realm.
Ning then switched his gaze to Hyesi who was also Qi Condensation 1st realm. But since he had broken through in just 20 days with 2 hours a day worth of cultivation, he must've been halfway through if not more in the first realm.
'Sigh, my body's talent is really bad,' he said as he shook his head. 'I am at Qi condensation first realm as well, right?' he thought and checked himself, and disappointingly, he was.
'Oh, let's use the 2nd and 3rd layer of the Qi Cultivation Analysis skill,' he thought and started focusing on Hyesi once more.
He used the skill and it was still showing just the cultivation base and not the name. 'Do I focus more?' he wondered and tried to concentrate on Hyesi a little more. He could feel himself getting a little tired mentally when the name Hyesi - Human popped up in his mind.
'Oh, so it mentions the species of the cultivator as well?' he wondered, quite happy.
He then focused once more, this time much harder than before. He was not used to it, so it took some time, but he finally managed to see the full information of Hyesi. Which he admitted was quite useless.
'Ah, I should have known it would all be a giant waste of time and mental strength.' Hyesi barely knew two different techniques. The Sun God's Morning Cleansing Technique and the Midnight Domain Cultivation Method, a cultivation technique for those with high Yin abundance.
"Urghh… my head hurts," Ning said as he massaged his head a little. 'I should buy the Body Cultivation Analysis as well.'
ARHHHH
Suddenly, a loud scream sounded from behind him. He immediately turned around to see a giant and slim body appear out of the ocean and start attacking the villagers. The braver villagers immediately started punching and kicking the attacker with all they could.
The remaining villagers who weren't used to fighting started evacuating, running away from either side of Ning. Ning, however, stood there looking at the thing that had just popped out of the ocean.
The Demon, Fufuliki.
