Dragon Ball, simultaneously traversing countless worlds

"Fine, I'll teach you how to punch and how to generate power from scratch these next few days."

In the days that followed, Luo Yan stayed at the Cat Sage's Kalin Tower.

On the surface, Kalin Tower is only the size of a snail shell, but in reality, there is a huge room beneath Kalin Tower that is imbued with spatial magic. The cat sage, who doesn't usually stay on the top of the tower, lives in this room.

After actually living on Kalin Tower, Luo Yan discovered that the story of Kalin the Immortal lacking fish in the fanfiction was a lie.

In Kalin Tower, there is a water tank that connects directly to the river in the lower realm. If you want to eat fish, Kalin the Immortal can simply scoop them up with one scoop.

Come to think of it, it seems that in episode 62 of Dragon Ball, when Master Korin first gave Goku Senzu Beans, Master Korin himself ate small fish sticks, white rice, and miso soup.

At that time, Goku didn't catch any fish for Master Korin, so those small fish sticks must have been caught by Master Korin himself.

In addition, in episode 61, Master Kalin openly stated that he had mastered the ability to read minds, so it would be difficult for the protagonist of the fanfiction to fool Master Kalin.

If Luo Yan's dimensional power weren't so high that neither Kalin the Immortal nor the Celestial could read his mind and could only use his lie-detection technique, his origins would probably have been exposed to them long ago.

The cat sage is over eight hundred years old and often observes the lower world through a water tank. He has seen all of humanity and has an astonishing amount of experience. It's not so easy to fool him.

Master Neko observed the training of many martial artists in the lower realms. Although his actual combat skills might not be as good as Master Roshi's, his insights and understanding of martial arts far surpassed those of Master Roshi at that time.

With guidance from the Cat Immortal, Luo Yan's foundation was quickly solidified.

Of course, the reason why Luo Yan was able to cultivate so quickly in the basics was because he had a system. As long as he put in the effort, he would get a thousandfold return. Once he mastered any kind of training, with the a thousandfold boost, he would immediately become extremely proficient.

The cat immortal, unaware of the system's existence, kept praising Luo Yan as a martial arts genius, and was in a very good mood.

It took three days for the Cat Immortal to help Luo Yan correct his punching and kicking techniques.

For the next three days, they helped Luo Yan train his control over Qi, enabling him to learn to sense Qi.

The final training is reading ki, which is what Master Korin taught Goku to do when he was training him.

Reading the breath is the ultimate secret of all martial arts styles. By reading the breath, one can predict the opponent's actions and attacks, which is the highest level of ordinary martial arts. The next level should be as calm as the sky and as swift as lightning.

Luo Yan was a little slow to learn how to read qi. Even with the system's help, it took him a full seven days to complete the training, which was far behind Little Wukong.

After completing his Qi reading training, Sage Kalin had nothing left to teach, but Luo Yan didn't think so. If he couldn't teach martial arts, he could still teach magic!

Kalin, who has lived for eight hundred years, is older than even the gods, and must possess lost magic that even the gods might not know.

Just like Senzu Beans, even the gods can't grow them; only the Neko-sensei can.

Other mind-reading and lie-detection techniques can also be taught.

"You want to learn how to grow Senzu Beans from me? What's so great about that? Senzu Beans are only good for filling your stomach and healing wounds." The Cat Master said dismissively, "If you want to learn, I'll teach you."

To grow Senzu Beans, you need Bean Seeds, Divine Soil, Super Divine Water, and Dimensional Power to nurture them. After planting, you need to water them every day and nurture them with Dimensional Power. After about a year of hard work, you can harvest ten Senzu Beans.

After hearing the cat fairy's description, Luo Yan was completely dumbfounded. It was so troublesome, requiring watering and nurturing every day. How could a lazy person like him possibly stick to it?

Only a lazy, stay-at-home cat like the Nekoshin would have the time to grow Senzu Beans!

Moreover, he's going to explore the universe in the future. Does that mean he'll be carrying a Senzu Bean flowerpot while exploring the universe?

Nevertheless, Luo Yan still learned how to cultivate fairy beans, lest this skill be lost in the future.

Not only did he learn, he also plundered a large amount of Senzu Beans from Master Nekomamushi. Since Master Nekomamushi was well-off in Korin Tower, it was better for him to have the Senzu Beans rather than let Yajirobe benefit from them.

After learning how to grow Senzu Beans, Luo Yan also learned mind-reading, lie-detection, and how to brew Super Divine Water from the Cat Sage.

Super Divine Water is not naturally generated; otherwise, it wouldn't be enough to irrigate Senzu Beans. Super Divine Water is mainly composed of water from the summit of Mount Daisetsukushima, mixed with dimensional energy.

The Super Divine Water, brewed with dimensional power, has the effect of unleashing one's potential and increasing combat power. However, the Super Divine Water is highly poisonous, and humans are almost unable to resist its toxicity. Before Goku, no human had ever survived after consuming the Super Divine Water.

However, in Dragon Ball GT, the Super Divine Water was used to undo the effects of the Aqua Mist on people and the effects of Baby's live egg cells, and those who consumed the Super Divine Water survived.

Luo Yan didn't value the Super Divine Water's ability to enhance potential; instead, he thought it was quite good at removing parasitic control, and that he might need it sometime.

"Luo Yan, your studies with me are complete. You have mastered almost all of my skills. Next, I will introduce you to a place where you can learn new skills."

“It’s a temple!” Luo Yan said.

"You know about the temple!" the cat sage asked in surprise.

"Once I learn to sense Qi, I will be able to discover the existence of God."

"You can actually sense the aura of a god. You're a real genius. Besides martial arts, your dimensional power is also so high."

“Now that you know of the existence of the gods, then go and meet them yourself!” said the cat sage.

Luo Yan waved his hand: "Then goodbye, Immortal Kalin. I will come to see you often."

Luo Yan leaped out of Kalin Tower. Instead of falling, he soared into the sky, his body surrounded by surging air currents that produced a booming sound.

After studying for so long, Luo Yan has now mastered the art of aerial flight and transformed into a humanoid fighter jet.

After flying upwards for a short while, Luo Yan soon saw the temple floating in the atmosphere.

Upon stepping onto the temple grounds, a dark-faced servant of the gods approached and respectfully said:

"Hello, Mr. Luo Yan, I am Bobo, a servant of God. The gods have been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me."

Bobo didn't test Luo Yan like he tested Sun Wukong. After all, Luo Yan's combat power was as high as 100,000. If he didn't suppress his qi, Bobo's combat power of 1,030 was simply not enough. Even if his realm was very high, he couldn't make up for the 100,000 combat power gap.

Chapter 9 Temple Cultivation

Following Bobo into the temple, Luo Yan discovered that the temple also employed spatial magic. Although the temple looked smaller than a football field, the interior space was incredibly large.

Rock pillars are everywhere, concealing rooms.

Without Bobo's guidance, Luo Yan would have really gotten lost.

After many twists and turns, the two entered a grand hall and there they met an incredibly aged deity.

"Hello, God." Luo Yan greeted first.

"Hello, Mr. Luo Yan, a human martial artist," the celestial being replied.

“Mr. Luo Yan, I have already verified what you said in front of Immortal Kalin.”

The deity got straight to the point, a hint of weariness in his eyes: "I used my divine power to foresee the future, to see several calamities on Earth, and to go back in time to discover the ancient demons buried deep underground."

"I see the Dragon Ball warriors who will step forward in the great calamity of the future, and I also see your existence. Therefore, I am willing to believe that Mr. Luo Yan is on the side of justice."

"The gods can actually foresee the future and rewind the past; that's truly powerful," Luo Yan exclaimed.

Compared to the later Celestials Piccolo and Dende, the old Celestials who had been around for over a hundred years were indeed incredibly powerful.

"This is merely the authority of a god. I have the right to examine anything that happens on Earth, whether in the past or the future," the god explained.

This ability is similar to that of King Kai; he can know anything that happens in the galaxy if he wants to.

The gods in the Dragon Ball world each have unique and wondrous powers. While they may not necessarily be the strongest in combat, their incredible abilities are not to be underestimated.

For example, the Kami before us, aside from his Namekian ability to create the Dragon Balls, can also create objects out of thin air after inheriting the position of Kami, and can conjure clothes and weapons at will.

This is a creation from nothingness; in the world of cultivation, only the most powerful among the powerful could accomplish such a feat.

In a world like Dragon Ball, it's truly unbelievable that an ordinary god with a power level of only a few hundred could do that.

"Since the gods already know the future, do you mean you want to groom me?"

"Yes, the future Earth cannot be protected by the gods alone; it needs the efforts of powerful warriors like you. Luo Yan, I ask you, are you willing to protect your home—Earth!"

The god leaned forward, his expression extremely serious, exuding a sense of dimensional pressure.

"It is my duty." Luo Yan answered without hesitation, ignoring the pressure.

“Very good, then you can start training with Bobo!” After a pause, the god added, “If you want to learn magic, I can also guide you.”

In terms of martial arts, Bobo's level is higher than that of the Celestial God, but when it comes to magic, the Celestial God is far superior to Bobo.

The Celestial God was originally a genius from Namek, and had also spent some time among the demons on Earth. He had also learned a lot of magic from the previous Celestial God, so he had a lot to teach Luo Yan.

Besides magic, the god can also create various magical items, such as the Ruyi Jingu Bang (a magical staff) and the Somersault Cloud.

Magic and magical items may not be useful in battles against powerful enemies, but it's always good to learn them. It's always good to have more skills!

After talking with the god, Luo Yan was led away by Bobo.

He chose to learn martial arts from Bobo first, and then learn magic from the god.

“Mr. Luo Yan, you have already completed your Qi reading training with Immortal Kalin. Next, you will train your mental state with me.”

In the temple square, Bobo began to instruct Luo Yan.

"You still make too many unnecessary movements in battle. This is because your mind is complicated. In battle, you must keep your mind as calm and clear as the sky so that you can deal with the enemy's attacks at any time."

"I've learned something. What should I do?"

"Sit down and turn your heart to stone."

Maintaining a state of mind as tranquil as the sky is indeed difficult. Even with Sun Wukong's talent, he couldn't do it instantly. He had to go to Mount Keluo to retrieve the sacred crown, where he was struck by lightning and nearly killed. He also had to go fishing to train his mind. After experiencing all sorts of trials, he finally figured out a trick.

However, that's because Sun Wukong was still young and naturally restless, making it too difficult for him to calm down.

In terms of physical talent, Wukong is naturally far superior to ordinary people, but in terms of mental cultivation, he may not be as good as that old fisherman.

As for Luo Yan, his mental state wasn't particularly high either, but he had some tricks up his sleeve.

At night, Luo Yan activated his "sage mode," and all the distracting thoughts in his mind vanished instantly, leaving him as tranquil as he was ten thousand meters above the ground.

Seizing this glimmer of inspiration, he instantly grasped the basics of mental cultivation, and then triggered the system's thousandfold reward, which completely solidified his mental state.

After cultivating to the Sky Mind Realm, Luo Yan immediately felt that everything around him was different.

He seemed to have become the heavens and the earth, the air itself, and the surrounding breeze and the birds flying in the sky were all under his control as if they were lines on his palm.

Without relying on the five senses or reading qi, Luo Yan can perceive any movement of wind and water in the outside world.

"You are a genius, Mr. Luo Yan. You are the fastest martial artist I have ever seen to achieve the Sky Mind Realm. I have nothing more to teach you," Mr. Bobo said with emotion.

"Once you've finished cultivating your mental state, you can teach me a few martial arts moves!"

"I don't know any martial arts moves. Bobo's responsibility is only to take care of the gods; she doesn't fight."

That's a lie. They can't even fight and yet they have over a thousand combat power.

"However, there is a Room of Spiritual Time in the temple, where your spirit can travel through the past, present, and future. You can meet any martial artist and learn martial arts moves from them."

Here, Bobo is referring to the House of Spiritual Time, not the House of Spiritual Time.

With just one word difference, their functions are worlds apart.

The Hyperbolic Time Chamber is a mysterious item that allows Goku to travel back in time and meet the young Master Roshi, and its use is unrestricted.
