Checking Rewards

Ivor started at the man with a small killing intent which frightened the man to his bones.

"Sir, please there is no ill will between us. I can explain everything." said the man in panic.

"Then go on... "

"About fifty thousand years ago the moon sect elder Ai led two elders, five core disciples, 100 inner disciples, and 300 outer disciples into this realm to find someone... Our blazing sect heard this and we believed there may be a hidden treasure while we brought a few more elders and core disciples and the moon sect, in order to compete with her..." the man was taking a slight breath and continued.

"Few more sect heard about such movement made the Plum Sword Sect, River Sect, and few other empires send their forces. When our ancestors entered they noticed all their cultivation dropped to the mortal realm making them only fight with physical bodies...."

"The demon sect had also sneaked in hoping to find treasure, however for the demon sect that cultivates the body took this opportunity to attack the orthodox sects. When the demon sect attacked the orthodox cultivators many started to fall, there were few elders and disciples who paid attention to body cultivation and were able to retaliate slightly but it wasn't long till the ancestor was to lose..."

"This is when Elder Ai stepped in, she had a firewater elephant that had an incredible physical body, also Elder Ai had a 7th stage sword which was cutting cultivators left and right, while the elephant crushed cultivators... With demon sect running, all the sect going separate ways and realising they cannot leave this realm, Empire's were made."

"Moon Empire, Blazing Empire, Demon Empire and The Five Alliance which consisted of Plum Sword Sect, River Sect, Green Empire, Toad Empire, and The Azure Empire."

The Moon Empire is up North, Blazing Empire is in the Central, Demon Empire is in the South, Plum Sword Sect and the Green Empire are in the West while River Sect, Toad Empire, and the Azure Empire are in the East." And the man finally stopped speaking and looked at Ivor in fear.

"I see... where are we now?" asked Ivor.

"We are currently at the border between Moon empire and Blazing Empire."

"See, there was no need for violence... now point me the way to moon empire and give me your sword." Ivor Commanded with a gentle voice.

The man quickly pointed at a direction and gave his sword without any hesitation.

"I wish you a good journey sir!" said the man while looked at Ivor leave the carriage, second Ivor closed the door the man's face paled, and looked at the roof... "I need to tone down my confidence."

Outside everyone saw Ivor leave and they fell onto the ground.

"Even the Great General does not emit such strong aura." said an older soldier in fear.

...

A few weeks later Ivor was getting closer to Moon City, however, Ivor remembered something.

"System, over the years I must have gotten rewards?" Ivor had forgotten about the system, he was just having a nice journey going through the forest in hope of finding the city.

[The Host has received rewards but do remember, once it has been taken out, the object cannot be stored in the Inventory.]

"System show any object that can act as clothes."

A display screen appeared in front of Ivor, there were 5 pieces of clothes: A dark blue robe with white inside - 6th grade, a red fade from bottom to black robe - 8th grade, Pure White Robe - 9th grade, Grey worn look robe - 10th grade and a Dark blue to light blue fade with a small flow of a river feeling - 12th grade.]

"Give me the 12th-grade robe."

[Host has taken the River Flowing Robe - 12th grade, has resistance to any fire or water-related attacks, can take up to 10th stage physical attacks.]

Ivor had robe reached the ground his hair was white, his face was that of a 25 to 30-year-old man looking quite young and his height was 180 cm with his physique being very refined.

Ivor did not look homeless, instead, he was a young master.

"System what rewards did I get over the years?"

[Congratulations host had received: x10 000 Qi gathering pills(up to 12th stage), x10 000 Healing Pills(up to 12th stage), x5 000 Blood Pills(up to 13th stage), x5 000 Body Pills(up to 14th stage), x5 000 Burst Pills( up to 10th stage), x10 000 Materials(up to 14th stage), x10 000 Beast Materials(up to 13th stage), Ancient Array/Formation, Engraving, Runes, Refining Books, Expert Array/Formation, Engraving, Runes, Refining Books, Ancient Beast Book, Expert and advanced books... Different Offensive and defence techniques, Smithing Techniques, Cultivation Technique, Body Refining Techniques.]

There were to go on the list, it seemed very long that Ivor told the system to stop and asked for Body Refining Techniques.

[There are 3 Body refining techniques: Blacksmith Body(15th Grade), Blood Warriors Strength(16th Grade), Fire Body Creation(15th Grade)]

[Blacksmith Body(15th Grade) - This is a technique to create a great body that is blacksmithing, it creates a body that is resistant to immense amounts of heat, adapts to different smithing scenarios fast, lifting heavy objects and having a strong defence is a benefit.]

[Blood Warriors Strength(16th grade) - This technique was created by a cultivator who sucked his enemies blood to enhance his blood grade, with the stronger blood the stronger the body was for attacking others.]

[Fire Body Creation(15th Grade) - This technique creates a true fire body, it will remove organs, skin everything that a body contains and creates a body made out of the fire.]

For Ivor, the Blacksmith Body seemed the best way to go. He wants his human body left and does not want to become a vampire.

Ivor picked up the Blacksmith Body and turned over the first page.

The first step was to have a body equivalent to Soul Formation Stage Cultivator or higher, next was for the cultivator to hit themselves with a hammer onto the Foot, Knee, Stomach, Chest, Shoulders, Elbow, Fingers and the Face for at least 500 times the first day, 1 000 the next day with an increase of 500 each day until reaching 10 000 hits.

It was to condition Ivor's skin to be extremely rough for it to be ready to begin the next stage.

The second step was to boil themselves within a boiling pot for an entire week.

The third step was for the cultivator to hit the hammer constantly at a piece of metal 100 000 times with both hands, meaning first hit with right the next was with the left making a constant beat.

Ivor did not look at the next steps since he wanted to visit the moon empire to learn about elder Ai, he was sure it was her but he hoped not since she may be dead.

Ivor made a normal staff from the normal wood he had received from the system and set into his path.
