The sky rumbled, and a golden lightning strike hit the ground.
"Thump"
Along with the lightning, a human body fell, and a crimson-colored sword followed him .
On the modern-day Earth, Prince Reynold closed the portal after the successful transmission of Mohan Das to the cultivation world.
After a few hours of coma-like sleep, Mohan Das slowly opened his eyes.
"Where am I? Did I come to the cultivation world like Prince Reynold said?" Mohandas muttered as he tried to maintain his consciousness.
For a man who ruled the modern-day Earth with the name "cursed sword Master…" This new world felt like a foreign country to him.
He slowly stood up from the ground while holding the bamboo tree beside him.
Like a person who experienced jet lag, his brain is stirring with confusion and sleep.
"Why do I feel so weak? Did I lose my strength or what?" Mohandas spoke up loud while observing the lush and vibrant bamboo forest around him.
Unlike this new world, which he teleported to, it seems clean and pure. Especially the air he breathed tingled all over his body. There are no dust particles or smoke in the air, and the world seems more vibrant.
"Boom."
Suddenly, he raised his fist and punched the bamboo beside him.
"Ahhh…"
Sharp pain came from his fist, and the bamboo was also broken down.
Mohan Das shook his head and laughed for a second. As a man who killed millions of people and who can break an iron pole without twitching…. He felt funny to experience pain from a bamboo.
"Prince Reynold, thank you for sending this old man to this new world. Now I can live again, the life of a common man." Mohan Das uttered lowly while staring at the sky.
No one would believe he is an old man who lived more than 200 years on modern-day Earth. His physical appearance will match a 19-year-old young man who is vibrant and active.
"Prince Reynolds said, once I enter this world, the hidden weapon spirits inside my body will show the way for the man who created them. But why are they still hiding inside me? Did I come to the wrong world?" Mohan Das scratched his head while thinking about the task he came to do in this world.
He closed his eyes for a second and summoned the Leo spirit from his soul space.
Immediately, a vibrant lion appeared before him, which was in the cosmic energy form and golden in color.
Unlike what he expected, the lion spirit was also staring back at him in confusion. He expected the spirit to show him the way to its master. But it does not happen.
"Ahhh… Now I need to search this entire world for the elder who created these spirits." Mohan Das uttered in a disappointing tone.
While thinking about what to do next… Mohan Das began walking out of the bamboo forest.
You know nothing about this world or how strong he is to rule this world. But one thing is clear: his mind. He needs to find out the elder created the weapon spirits and release him from the Demon Queen, who trapped him.
As he walked, he began remembering the final words spoken by Leo Reynold. "You're going to the Dragon Realm… My only advice is, do not act with the values of Earth. Opportunities come rarely, so grab them by any means necessary. The path of cultivation is painful and tedious, and only those who dare to see the power will survive."
Mohan Das smiled for a second as he remembered those brave words spoken by Leo Reynold.
"Fake it till you make it… The demon princess rules the dragon realm… Playing a long game is necessary if you want to rescue the creator of weapon spirits. Be patient, be smart, and learn the ways of that world before making any moves."
"Most importantly… take any opportunity, whether it is bad or good… whatever makes you strong is the path you must choose. Everything is fair in the cultivation world, either. It is evil or a demon."
With a final look at the bamboo forest, Mohan Das finally walked out of it and began climbing high ground to observe the surroundings and take the nearest path to any living area.

Author's Note: The story will be fast-paced, and you will get to enjoy all the elements of a dual-cultivation. But English is not my primary language, so there might be minor-errors you might encounter. But I am ready to correct myself, so leave a comment when you find some errors. Like my previous books, I will answer every single comment.
Please read the story with a pinch of mercy on this author.
