I am an Eldritch Entity

Chapter 257: Several oddities of the cultivation world



"sh… Anomaly…"

Eryndor stopped in his tracks as soon as he heard the word in the sentence a disciple spoke to another person.

He didn't even hear the rest of the sentence, as if his mind automatically hyper focused on that single word.

In the few hours that Eryndor had been here, and the numerous memories that he had scanned, there were a few oddities that he had found.

There were no anomalies.

Yes, the Cultivation world never had any anomalies.

No memory that he had scanned mentioned anything about them.

Well, it could be that there was a secret department which dealt with anomalies quickly, therefore no mention of it was ever leaked out.

However, he had also looked through a few memories of students who had higher status, they never encountered this term in that specific context either.

Back then he had thought that there could only be two options.

First, that the team which dealt with anomalies was so secretive, and efficient that only a few people in the entire Cultivation world would know about it.

The chances of him scanning the memories of a disciple which happened to be one of those was close to nonexistent, or such a disciple may not even exist, so he might really not get any information about them.

Second, that these anomalies really didn't exist.

With what he knew about anomalies, he found the second option far more agreeable.

The anomalies could literally have any and all types of abilities.

There was always a non-zero chance that the specialised team won't be able to deal with an anomaly possessing an incredibly broken ability.

It was much more rational to assume that anomalies didn't even exist in the cultivation world.

The second piece of oddity he found was that the people here didn't know that they were invading the Earth.

After he went through more memories, he found a likely reason for it.

The Cultivation world was too big. Way too big. And this training camp was situated in a small corner of it.

The invasion was likely such a trivial matter to them that it wasn't worth being spread to all of the population.

The third oddity was that these people had never heard of Cosmic Limit.

Did they not go through the situation like on Earth, where the level limits were raised gradually?

Or was it so far back in the past that there were no mentions of the Cosmic Limit anymore?

The fourth oddity was that this world only had Qi.

There was no Mana, Internal energy, or Spiritual energy.

After realizing this, he also felt thankful that he didn't use the Spirit Strengthening pills.

The cultivation power system and mentalist power system literally used two different energies.

How could a pill which was used through Qi be applicable to be used through Spiritual energy?

Surely there were different pills for that?

Eryndor wondered why he didn't think of this before, but it was at least a good thing he didn't rashly try it earlier.

The fifth oddity was that the density of the Qi here was comparable to Earth.

Well, that wouldn't really be weird unless you thought about the fact that Earth was only at the third level of the Cosmic Limit.

Whereas here people could cultivate to the seventh level.

He didn't know if there existed people at eighth and ninth level, but even if they didn't and one assumed that seventh was the limit, a level seven was higher than level three, right?

Then why were the densities of Qi the same?

Eryndor could again think of two options regarding this.

One, that in the future when Earth's Cosmic Limit would further increase, the density of the four elements wouldn't increase even further.

There might be some other changes the increase in cosmic limit would bring but not the density of energies.

Two, that the density of the four energies would continue to increase after the Cosmic Limit increased in the future.

And this… is why the Cultivation Outer Domain was invading them.

Eryndor had shelved this thought back then because there wasn't much evidence to it.

But it was still a bit scary to think that he might've found a reason for their invasion just like this.

Well, anyone in his place would've come to that conclusion as long as they had basic logical deduction skills.

Eryndor stood still, then without displaying any emotions, he changed his directions and headed towards the counter where a large number of disciples had gathered.

Eryndor had almost fully recovered his Energy of Consciousness, therefore he used Cognitive Scrying to get an idea about what was going on.

They are establishing a department in the Training Camp to deal with anomalies?

It's called The Bureau of Anomaly Control huh.

Even though he got plenty of information from the minds of disciples, he still went to the counter to witness it himself.

A big board was placed in the middle, which had all the information written across it regarding the formation of the new department.

Eryndor could witness the panic of the disciples when they finished reading about these existences called anomalies.

Well, not everyone panicked though.

Some were very eager to go against these anomalies, ready to test their own combat prowess.

This was despite the Training Camp also mentioning a few examples of what abilities they could have.

Example one - An anomaly which could evade your senses to a degree that was proportionate to your knowledge of it.

Which meant that the more you knew about that anomaly, the more easily and deeply it could hide from you.

Even with the best surveillance skills, it would be difficult for you to find it if you had a lot of knowledge regarding it.

Example two - An anomaly which grew stronger the more people ate its body parts.

There were countless ways in which it could exploit this ability to grow stronger.

There were more examples, but Eryndor's focus was on a different section of the board.
