Ticking Down

A week had passed since Brian started his training with Grandpa J and Isabella. Brian was able to learn multiple subjects one would take years to learn as well as having his 11 year old body already start to show muscles. During he past week, the most noticeable thing would not be Brian's strength increase, but the increase in his well proportioned body. Brian was already good looking, but after cultivating the breathing technique coupled with Brian's training, Brian's smooth, delicate skin that all women called gorgeous would envy, and Brian's aura of brimming confidence and determination could make Brian one of the most handsome men on the TMHMOTTW, Top Most Handsome Men On The Three Worlds, but even after all this, Brian was still a child and looked adorable which added to his attractive points. This eventually led to Brian being taught seduction skills by Grandpa J. Although the matter of Brian's attractiveness wasn't the most important thing right now since a sense of anxiousness and anticipation could be discerned on said party's face. Brian currently felt the emotions described because the timer which had kept ticking in Brian's head only had 11 hours left till the timber counted down to '0:0:0:0'. Brian at first thought he was having delusions of the numbers and sounds in his mind until he stayed awake 3 times successively and at exactly 12 o'clock am at night, the same sound could be heard within Brian's head, but when he asked Isabella and Grandpa J if they experienced the same, they could only stare at Brian as if he were crazy. After knowing that the timer was real, Brian would stay up each night and today was the final night that the clock would tick. Brian continued the whole day as he would for the 6 others days, train, eat, study, eat, meditate. After Brian finished eating he started to rotate the Qi within this body using the Heavenly Purifying Breathing Technique and recalled Isabella's teachings from earlier.

Brain was able to learn from Isabella's teachings that although anything can be used to make an element, the element would naturally all stem from the 6 Elements of Creation. These Elements of Creation are what make the universes alongside Qi. The 6 Elements of Creation are Wood, Fire, Ice, Alloy, Space, and finally, time. These Elements of Creation can be shaped anyway as long as the object doesn't challenge the Elements of Creation's powers. For example, an Alloy can be shaped using the he/she's Qi and with a great understanding towards the Element, into a blade by molding the Alloy element into something sharp while making sure that the rules for Elements aren't broken and mixing killing intent within the blade so the blade is able to know the purpose for its 'creation'. True Force would be the evolved version of the 6 Elements of Creation. Life, Destruction, Soul, Protection, while Space and Time Elements don't have a known True Force as hardly anyone cultivates time and space elements. Brian was circulating the Qi within his dantian and by using the cultivation technique Brian learned, he was able to receive portions of the Elements of Creation and mix them within his dantian. Brian was able to increase his understanding of these elements merely by studying the elements entering his body. While Brian was rotating the Qi in his body, the timer inside Brian's head was about to end. Exiting his sense of meditation, Brian observed the timer as 5 seconds remained till midnight.

'0:0:0:5'

'0:0:0:4'

'0:0:0:3'

'0:0:02'

'0:0:0:1'

'Rebooting Software'

A mechanical voice resonated within Brian's head as the timer hit 1. The mechanical voice spoke again.

"Welcome to the Guiding Assistant System Program, User."

"Huh? Are you talking to me?"~Brian

"The Guiding Assistant System Program is indeed speaking towards User."

"I see. So what are you ?"~Brian

"I am a program designed for assisting User to achieve your goal."

"How are you talking inside my head?"~Brian

"I am talking to the soul directly which sounds as if I were talking inside your head."

"So how did you get inside my soul?"~Brian

"I was attached to User's soul during the Heavenly Tribulation and crossed worlds together with User."

"So how will you assist me in achieving my goal?"~Brian

"User will be able to buy various items from me which can be useful towards User. As goal has not been inserted, shop has yet to be generated."

"Mmm, how do I insert my goal?"~Brian

"User only needs to speak your goal."

"What if I change my goal later on?"~Brian

"Goal is not changeable until first goal has been achieved."

"Can I say my goal right now?"~Brian

"It is possible."

"What if I say to become a god?"~Brian

"Guiding Assistant System Program will aid User in achieving the goal."

"Is it possible for me to become a god without any side effects?"~Brian

"It is feasible to do if User blocks methods which contain harmful side effects."

"I see. Then I chose my goal. I want my goal to be to become the strongest of all worlds."~Brian

"Goal confirmed. Guiding Assistant System Program will now begin to start software."

After Brian told his goal to the program, the Guiding Assistant System made more sounds like streaming water as if information was flowing to the program. After the sound of flowing water ended, the same mechanical voice resounded through Brian's head again.

"Software has updated. User may now use Shop and may receive objectives."

The mechanical voice ended and soon, a screen similar to a games status board appeared within Brian's head along with 4 divided sections with words such as shop, objectives, help, and health. Brian curiously tapped on the shop section when various items popped onto the screen.
