“So what do you mean, sister?” Garen seemed to understand only a little bit of it.

“If you didn’t achieve the level of Resonance, no Resonance Level Energy Machinist would train your instinct. Hence, you would never be able to utilize your Water Mirror towards this generation’s enemy. Afterall, close combat is an old art. Everything would evolve alongside as technology advances. Ultimately, martial arts is a technique that is developed during the cold weapon era and we are currently in the era of universal battles with weaponry and between these two eras, how many eras have passed? If martial arts itself doesn’t change along with the era and adapt to the environment, it will never escape from the fate of being eliminated from the world,” Rainy said emotionally.

“Are you saying that my techniques are ancient?” Garen was speechless.

“You can say so. I don’t know where you’ve learned these techniques, but they are indeed very ancient. I’m amazed you can reach such a level,” a book suddenly appeared in Rainy’s hand. It had black leather and she threw it towards Garen.

Garen caught it gently and opened it. Inside the book were drawings of human figures of different layers of body training. In addition to that, the drawings were in a series. Garen flipped to the last page of the book and saw a word written on the drawing – Reflective Mastery.

“This is for you. You should be able to master this within a month. This is for us pure martial adept to keep up with the generation. Countless seniors have put in all their effort to create this precious inheritance. Bear in mind that you can only master one of them and choose it as your main ability. Once you’ve fused it within your instinct, you can then release the true potential of the instinct you’ve chosen with your Water Mirror,” Rainy said softly.

“How many more grades are there above the Water Mirror? Please enlighten me, sister,” as Garen flipped the book, he had finally put away the attitude that he, a transmigrator who possessed knowledge of multiple worlds, was above everyone and wanted to learn from sister with all of his sincerity.

There was no doubt that she had surpassed him at what he was best at. Every world had its own rules, brilliant and beautiful. This world’s peak was so high that it had reached a realm that Garen had never heard of before.

He finally put away his attitude and was willing to learn from others. This was the skill that he should have had a long time ago, the skill of respecting knowledge.

It was only then a glimpse of satisfaction could be seen in Rainy’s gaze. She had lived for at least a millennium and it was impossible for her to not see the faint arrogance in his attitude. Within the world of martial arts, arrogance is a lethal weak point before one reached the top. One would miss out a lot of opportunities for growth because of arrogance and there were many such examples. Garen would never become too strong if he couldn’t break this obstacle.

It was only then Garen finally changed his attitude. Ultimately, he was still just a normal youngster from Earth. Perhaps it was his experience, accumulated knowledge, the increment in strength which made him more powerful, yet it was also what shaped his extreme self-esteem which had turned into a burden. It was a demon inside him that he had never realized.

Garen had finally thrown away his arrogance and requested his senior sister to teach him with the utmost sincerity.

“The Water Mirror represents the peak of instinct and the Silver Mirror represents the peak of Qi’s Dynamic. The Board, which is above the Mirror is the highest height a strength can ever reach,” memories seemed to have flashed passed in her eyes.

“The Board?” Garen muttered as he repeated what she said.

“The Silver Mirror represents one’s accumulated strength. After accumulating for a certain amount of time, one’s body would naturally harness the power of gravity, where each of his movement would induce the electromagnetic fields around him, naturally forming the Qi’s Dynamic. Hence, he alone could manipulate the power of the universe which is an astonishing feat. This is where one starts to evolve into a higher being. You can safely assume that once you’ve entered that realm, your limbs would grow back when it’s amputated, your organs would gain its health back, greatly extending your lifespan. Teeth will grow once more and these are extremely common to them. Your lifespan will extend to a thousand years when you reach that level,” Rainy said proudly.

“A thousand years!” Garen gasped. This wasn’t the result of any genetic modification but a natural evolution from mastering the martial arts. This meant that any human could reach such height regardless of their genes. This also meant that any commoner could walk on the path to the peak of strength!

The woman in white shirt nodded her head.

“I am in the realm after the Silver Mirror. I, Senior sister Rainy, have spent six hundred years to go from the Water Mirror to the Silver Mirror and I am considered a genius among the geniuses. It’s best for you to not be arrogant.”

“It’s fine,” Rainy waved her hand. “It’s best for you to know how weak you are. The realm of Board which comes after is the beginning of Non-Falling Level becoming the Perpetual Motioners. One has to enter the Board Level in order to become a Perpetual Motioner. It’s best for you to listen to these and know the difference in skill between these monsters and you.”

Garen nodded and behaved like a junior.

“The Board represents success and ultimatum. It is called the Board as it derives from the word chessboard. Perpetual Motioners are called so because they are always breathing and moving. It means they have a long lifespan and would never wither,” Rainy’s gaze was filled with aspirations. “They, who were once chess pieces had jumped out of the board and the grasp of the chess players and created their own universe. To the Perpetual Motioners, everyone below them are like the chess pieces on the chessboard. No matter how much the chess piece struggles, they will always be on the Board and not injure the chess players. This is the difference between their strengths. If one doesn’t understand the Board, then he shall never understand how wide the difference is.”

“If that’s the case, how strong are the people at those levels?” Garen was a little aspired as the realm sounded like the mythical realm.

“How strong are they? Only those in the same boat would understand. The worm which only lives during summer will never see winter in their life. How will they understand how cold winter is? How will they understand the changes among the four seasons?” Rainy sighed.

“The board represents us, the Finite people and the other races. It is the highest realm for all of us. The Perpetual Motioners are the most valuable strategic class weapons in the universe. They have attributes of an immortal and their lifespan was extremely long. It is common for them to obliterate a planet on their own. People of this caliber are often conquerors of planets or Grand Marshall of a Military Planet. All of them have their own duties and they’re extremely frightening. One of them alone could oppress an entire normal planet.

“Then what kind of strength does a Regent Level possess?” Garen recalled a legendary Regent Level that had been passed down from this world for as long as he remembered.

“The Regent Level is the peak of everything. It has already become a legend. If we can still see a living example of a Perpetual Motioner, then we will never be able to see a Regent Level,” Rainy laughed. “They are able to destroy an entire planet by just flexing their body and kill millions of lives by just exhaling. Their presence is as big as a planet. They will curl up and sleep for millions of years and we won’t notice it at all even if we are living on his body. The Regent Level is truly the pinnacle of everything. Legend has it that they could easily destroy an entire solar system in their battle. If it is a slightly more serious battle, an entire star system would suffer serious damage. The reason why we do not wish to engage war with the Finite people is because of the previous battle by the Regent Level. If they were to fight each other again, all the commoners would’ve died before the victory is determined. It is equivalent to perishing together. As to how to reach the height of the Regent Level, only they themselves know and it is definitely above the Board.”

Garen took a deep breath, closed his eyes as he understood the magnificence of this era. It had far surpassed all the civilization that he had been through. It was truly a civilization with power that stood above all. They would have conquered countless of star systems if the two major races didn’t fight among themselves and might even be on par with the Warlocks.

“Planet Cloudstone is currently holding an interstellar wide competition and it’s the cruelest competition around. You can leap there when you’re free since we have a foreign office located on Planet Cloudstone. Hence, you don’t have to worry about food or guidance,” the woman in white shirt smiled. “Don’t overthink about the situation. As long as you can enter the Inherited Level Six and reach the pinnacle, you will be able to have a place in the sect. You’ll also get to enjoy a lifespan of thousands of years and own a territory. As to those Board and Regent Level, don’t put it in your heart and just listen to it for the sake of listening.”

Garen nodded without saying a word. It’s indeed true that he didn’t dare to think of the existence of a Regent Level, whose influence was as big as a planet.

“By the way, since you’ve become the Three Hearted Disciples, you have the duty to enter the Void Battlefields. You have a month’s time to organize your items, settle all sorts of affairs before you enter the Void Battlefields. This is the rule of an Energy Machinist. You’ll be treated based on your contribution and merits. You are not qualified to enter even the library if you don’t fulfill the mission to a certain extent,” the woman in white shirt explained. “You can visit the slave market when you’re free to pick a slave to take care of your personal life. You should also find a useful and effective slave that you can bring into the Void Battlefield. You must build your own safety points inside. Remember, do not trust anyone inside the Void Battlefields as it is an extremely dangerous place. The Void Creatures are extremely powerful and hard to differentiate.”

The white-shirted woman reached out her hand and threw a white ring towards Garen.

“This is the Space Ring for you as a Three Hearted. It is slightly better than the one you currently have. Since the ring you have is supposed to be worn by a woman, you should give it back to Princess Aine,” she said as she had a faint smile on her face.

Garen smiled awkwardly as he grabbed hold of the ring. After sensing it for a while, he found out that it was very spacious inside and was slightly better than Aine’s ring.

“I suggest you train around the area by taking up some local missions before you head towards the Void Battlefields. You should head out once you know where you stand in terms of strength,” Rainy said coldly. “We disciples will have a sparring competition once every five years. Remember to be nearby once the time has come so that you won’t be late.”

“Understood,” Garen nodded.

“Alright, you can go and do your stuff now,” Rainy waved her hands as she turned around slowly. Although she looked slow when she turned around, she soon disappeared into the corridor in a matter of seconds.

The white-shirted woman looked at Garen in admiration.

“From now on, you’re the fifteenth Three Hearted disciples in the Scarlet Snow Sect in the whole Scarlet Snow Planet. From the very beginning of the Scarlet Snow Sect, we always have only fifteen Three Hearted Disciples. You’re extremely lucky to manage to become one.”

Only fifteen people?

Garen was stunned.

“Excluding the elder and the guardians, everyone is self-taught and are equally ranked. You’re now the fifteenth royal highness in the entire Scarlet Snow Sect,” the white-shirted woman addressed him as if he had a royal blood.

“Royal Highness?” Garen was shocked.

“Of course. Why do you think everyone wants to be the Three Hearted Disciples. These fifteen people will be the Scarlet Snow Sect’s strongest men in the future. If you were to die during battle or lose to the Two Hearted Disciple thrice during the once in five years sparring, your Three Hearted title will be ripped away from you. You’ll then have to compete once more as a Two Hearted Disciple. Naturally, this shouldn’t be a problem to you.”
