201 Cultivation

"This Young Master Gin shall give you the knowledge of cultivation!" Gin had a smug face as he started explaining. "There are many kinds of force in a cultivation story. They are a kingdom, an empire, a sect, a palace, and other stuff.

"In a sect like theirs, there are status like how noble ranks work. Unlike this kingdom, the commoners are like trash who are treated like a slave. On the other hand, they don't have slaves because they consider commoners as mortals…

"After that, there are disciples. These disciples are divided into four. They are Outer Disciple, Inner Disciple, Core Disciple and True Disciple. Outer Disciples are those who just start their cultivation and one without big talent or background.

"If they have an overwhelming talent or background, they can directly become an Inner Disciple. Of course, there's a way for Outer Disciples to become Inner Disciples. They need to reach a certain level of cultivation… Some sects even put an age restrain on that one.

"After that is Core Disciples. The Core Disciples are usually the strongest bunch of disciples of the sects. They are usually the most talented and strongest disciples inside the sect.

"As for the True Disciples, they're actually Core Disciples, but they're usually crowned as a candidate for the leader position. You can say they're elites among elites.

"Above them are Elders. The elders are usually the ones that manage the sect. They're similar to the ministers in this kingdom. Of course, the elders need to be far stronger than the disciples. It's rare to see a sect give an exception to make someone an elder when he's clearly a weak person.

"Then, there is the sect master. This position is usually for the strongest person in the sect like Her Majesty Lilith. He's the leader of the sect.

"But I'm sure you're wondering when the sect master succeed his position… The answer is… It can be anytime. When the sect master passes the position, he usually becomes a Great Elder, Ancestor Elder, or whatever Old Titled Elder. Their strength can rival the sect master or even stronger because they're the one keeping the sect master in check from the shadow.

"These are the ranks within the sect. Although there are some differences among other types of influences… their ranks are practically the same. Any question?" Gin asked while smiling, feeling proud of his knowledge.

"No. It's quite clear and we won't be able to get this kind of answer from them because we certainly don't know what to ask." The nine-tailed fox shook her head. "The most we can get is probably half of them. Anyway, how about the investigation stuff. They said something that protected us this whole time…"

"I believe it's a barrier! I love this kind of story. There's always a barrier that protects the weakest continent for no apparent reason." Gin shrugged. "Anyway, I think the barrier has become too weak that it's easy for them to invade us… I mean, it's going to come soon.

"So, we only have a limited amount of time to prepare for the invasion. The most foolish thing right now is having a war that involves the entire continent. It's best if we can unite the humans and the demons to fight against these invaders."

"I see." The nine-tailed fox looked down, pondering many things. However, she still remembered there was one more thing they said. "How about the Joyful Union Sect? What kind of place is that?"

Gin let out a long sigh and raised both hands. "I truly have no idea. To be honest, their name is pretty sick and weird at the same time. They can call themselves Heavenly Sword Mountain, Unparalleled Beast Sect, or even Alchemist Association.

"But if I follow the way of how they use that name… I think I have a pretty good guess about their exact identity. Do you want to hear it? This is basically a wild guess."

"Give us every information you have." The nine-tailed fox replied without hesitation.

"Alright." Gin nodded in agreement and continued his explanation. "Joyful Union Sect. Union is probably something like Yin and Yang… my wild guess is something like a dual cultivation. As for the word Joyful… it doesn't mean anything. So, yeah, I believe this sect is a freaking horny sect that uses dual cultivation."

"Dual Cultivation?"

"Yeah. There are multiple ways of cultivating one's body. You can strengthen your physique to the very limit. These guys are called Body Cultivators. Or you can absorb energy from the air and be called a normal cultivator.

"But we are going to discuss about Dual Cultivation. Basically, Dual Cultivation is a method to strengthen your body through sex! I mean… That's the method."

"You serious?" The nine-tailed fox's eyebrows twitched as she stared at Gin in disbelief. "Is there such a convenient way to get stronger?"

"I mean, isn't the succubus doing the same? They're absorbing a bit of Magic Power from their mating's partner."

"Yeah. But most of the energy in their body comes from their training, not sex."

"You can say Dual Cultivation is the epitome of that kind of technique." Gin shrugged. "Anyway, Yin and Yang is like the two sides in one coin. The Yin can supply the Yang and vice versa.

"In my knowledge, there are multiple symbiosis. The mutual one like what I said earlier which is preferred but slower. Or the one where you take your partner's entire energy and suck him dry which is vicious.

"The Yang Energy is usually from the male's body and the Yin Energy is usually from the female's body.

"From what I think, the demon kingdoms have their own type of energy. This kingdom must have a bountiful Yin Energy… The Lust Energy can be called Yin Energy, but Yin Energy can't be said to be the Lust Energy. That kind of stuff.

"This is purely my guess since I have little knowledge about cultivation… In my eyes, the Pride Kingdom has something like Emperor Energy or something. The Gluttony Kingdom has something overpowered like Devouring Energy… But well, this is just me taking their name literally. You need to capture them first to know more. I will also help you by asking anything you would like to know." Gin explained, smiling. He was happy that this time had come.

"Why are you grinning like that?" The nine-tailed fox had a darkened expression since the situation had become extremely dangerous. "Wait a minute… If you tell us that this Dual Cultivation is for sex…"

Gin's smile became even bigger as he puffed his chest, looking proud. "That's right. Teacher's power will be necessary to fight them. I think this is the biggest reason why Teacher has come to this world.

"If I calculate the other braves, the Hero should have a sect with a weapon… like that Heavenly Sword Sect or something. The Magic Empress has something called a Five Elemental Sect. The Saintess has a powerful church as well or maybe a Holy Kingdom like the one on this continent.

"The Sniper should be similar to the hero while me… I'm not very sure. My power is unique after all." Gin waved his hand and clutched it excitedly. "However, that's irrelevant because there's Bonk Power!

"Our power is the bane of this Joyful Union Sect. If they invade us, we will have an easy time to repel them.

"If Teacher also learns about Cultivation, I'm pretty sure he will become a peerless expert. That's why we need to move right now and capture those two to get more information. It's best if they have some sort of Spatial Ring or Space Ring."

"What are those?"

"It's basically a ring of storage. You can put everything in an isolated space inside the ring."

"There's such a thing? Even the space element spell book doesn't have a convenient magic like that."

"Yeah. That's what I actually want since everything is going to be convenient. If they have one, please give it to us. I'm sure you will get more when the invasion arrives." Gin explained.

"Well, that's not my decision to make. It requires Her Majesty's permission. Though, if Sir Albert personally asked her, she would give it to him." The nine-tailed fox scratched the back of her head. "However, I also know something."

"And what's that?"

"There might be a need for Sir Albert to become the lord of demons, the Demon Lord. After all, the danger that comes this time around far surpasses any other occasions."

"Demon Lord huh… Pretty nostalgic term." Gin nodded in agreement. "But I guess my teacher can become an even greater person."

"Anyway, that's all for now. We need to continue our surveillance while preparing an ambush to capture them. Although I can't permit you to join the fight, I want to ask your help to convince the salamander to help us to capture those two."

"Sure thing. Just capture them first and give me a chance to bonk them since I want to get stronger. According to my Teacher, I can get stronger by bonking them, so I want to test it." Gin agreed without hesitation. "Of course, I will also convince the salamander for you."

"Thank you for your cooperation."
