This "Sovereign Qi" actually contains a cultivation method for creating new power source points! In other words, even someone with only one power source point, if they follow this method, can cultivate a second, third, fourth, or even more power source points.

"Is this for real?" Brian Carter could hardly believe it—this random copy of "Sovereign Qi" he picked up actually had such a function.

After thinking it over for a moment, in this dangerous place, with little real strength to protect himself, Brian Carter decided to take a gamble and trust the cultivation method described in the book for now.

He turned to a new page, only to find it was completely blank—there was no diagram explaining the flow of energy, not even a tiny black dot.

"What is this..." Brian Carter was stunned, when suddenly a point of white light shot out from the book, striking him right between the eyebrows. The white light entered his body and began moving rapidly inside him.

At first, Brian Carter was startled and frightened by the white light, but soon he realized that the path it took inside his body was very fixed—it was a strange cycle.

Once he calmed down completely, Brian Carter felt the white light moving inside him, leading a wisp of internal energy to circulate along with it. Each time a full cycle was completed, the energy flow would become a bit stronger than before, and his body would feel an incredible sense of comfort.

At the same time, with every completed cycle, Brian Carter discovered that a new power source point had actually appeared inside him.

This astonishing discovery instantly filled Brian Carter with wild joy. He, who had only one power source point, had actually cultivated a second one!

Chapter 5: Super Genius? Super Loser? (Part 1)

If he could cultivate a second, then he could cultivate a third power source point!

Brian Carter could no longer care about what kind of environment he was in; he just kept controlling the energy flow to circulate through his body again and again, because he noticed that the white light that had entered him was gradually dimming. He believed it would disappear completely soon, so he had to memorize the path of the energy flow perfectly before the white light vanished.

He didn't know when the white light had already disappeared, but Brian Carter continued to control the energy flow inside him, circulating it nonstop. At this moment, he had already forgotten about the disappearance of the white light, and even forgotten that he was squatting inside a tree hollow.

He just kept forging new power source points inside his body—the eleventh, the twenty-first, the thirty-third, the forty-seventh...

Brian Carter was not a very diligent person; on the contrary, he was usually rather lazy. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent so long in the fantasy world and still be a small-time nobody with mediocre strength.

Each time he cultivated a new power source point, it became a bit harder to cultivate the next one, but Brian Carter was on a roll, putting in rare effort.

He didn't know how long he had been cultivating, but when Brian Carter finally reached the ninety-ninth power source point, his stomach began to rumble with hunger.

Brian Carter wanted to hold on a bit longer, but he was simply too hungry, so he had to stop cultivating power points for now and slowly opened his eyes from meditation.

"Awesome! Ninety-nine power source points! As long as I fill them up..."

Brian Carter crawled out of the tree hollow and was halfway through stretching when he suddenly stopped talking to himself, and the smile on his face gradually turned awkward.

He had to admit, power source points were truly rare and valuable things. Someone with two power source points could be called a genius, and someone with three might even be considered a super genius.

But if someone had ninety-nine power source points...

Brian Carter suddenly realized that such a person was not the genius of geniuses. Or rather, this person was indeed the super genius among super geniuses, but also the super loser among super losers.

Think about it: a genius using a good cultivation method could fill one power source point in a year, then move on to the next stage of cultivation. But to fill ninety-nine power source points would take ninety-nine years.

How many ninety-nine-year spans does a person have in their life? Brian Carter was completely stunned. He had just thought he’d gotten an incredible bargain, and had been blindly cultivating power source points, but now it seemed he was a complete idiot.

Most people understand that too much of a good thing is bad, but when something truly delicious is placed in front of you, how many people in the world can really control themselves?

Brian Carter wished he could slap himself a few times. These power points were just like that delicious food—he’d only cared about the pleasure at the time and had forgotten the most crucial point: no matter how good something is, you have to consume it in moderation, or you’ll definitely get indigestion.

A lifetime stuck at Human Level, Stage One?! Brian Carter looked at his body full of power source points, both laughing and crying. When you fill three power source points, is there any other Human Level, Stage One expert in the world who could be your match? But what about after that? Are you supposed to use a huge quantity of low-quality energy to suppress high-quality energy? Hmm! If you accumulate four power source points, while still at Human Level, Stage One, could you rely on sheer quantity to defeat someone at Stage Two?

"Let’s hope there aren’t any real experts on this continent."
