Apocalypse: Surviving as the God of a Tiny Cultivation Sect

Clayne carefully lifted the glowing chips from the floating island inside the Tiny Immortal Sect and stared at them with widened eyes.

Even after being removed from the miniature world, the chips still glowed faintly.

Tiny streams of spiritual Qi continuously leaked from their surface like mist escaping from some heavenly treasure. The smell alone already felt completely different from ordinary food. It no longer smelled like simple packaged chips from a convenience store.

Instead...

It smelled refreshing.

Pure.

Almost mystical.

Even the air around the chips felt lighter somehow.

Clayne swallowed slowly afterward.

"...No way."

Then without hesitation—

He shoved several pieces directly into his mouth.

Crunch.

The moment the chips broke apart between his teeth—

Clayne froze.

Because the taste instantly exploded throughout his mouth.

It no longer tasted like ordinary chips.

The flavor felt unbelievably rich.

It was as though every single piece had been dipped into some mystical heavenly sauce impossible to describe using ordinary words. The crunch itself sounded strangely satisfying while the spiritual energy hidden inside the chips erupted continuously the more he chewed.

Warmth immediately spread throughout his body afterward.

Then—

Boom.

A massive surge of Spiritual Qi exploded within him instantly.

Clayne’s eyes widened immediately.

He could feel spiritual energy flooding directly through his veins and meridians continuously. Compared to the weak Spiritual Qi from earlier cultivation, this energy felt unbelievably pure and dense.

Without hesitation—

Clayne immediately sat down cross legged.

Then he began cultivating.

The Silent Sword Sect cultivation method immediately started circulating throughout his body rapidly.

Spiritual Qi surged endlessly from the chips within his stomach before flowing throughout every part of his body. His muscles trembled lightly while his bones emitted faint cracking sounds continuously.

The sensation felt overwhelming.

Yet incredibly addictive.

Every breath he inhaled now absorbed surrounding spiritual energy naturally while the chips themselves continuously released more Spiritual Qi within him endlessly.

Clayne could clearly feel his cultivation rising rapidly afterward.

His meridians widened continuously.

His muscles became tougher.

His senses sharpened further.

Even his heartbeat gradually became stronger and steadier.

Meanwhile, tiny traces of impurities continuously leaked from his skin again, yet compared to before, the amount became significantly smaller.

The spiritual energy within the chips felt unbelievably refined.

The more Clayne cultivated—

The more he realized how terrifying the miniature world truly was.

Something as ordinary as convenience store chips...

Could actually become cultivation treasures after entering that world.

That realization alone almost made his scalp tingle.

Meanwhile, Spiritual Qi continuously gathered around Clayne’s body afterward.

The surrounding air even started distorting faintly due to dense energy concentration.

Inside his body, the Silent Sword Sect cultivation method circulated faster and faster repeatedly.

The sensation no longer felt unfamiliar anymore.

Instead...

It gradually became natural.

Comfortable.

Almost instinctive.

The instincts inherited from the ancient soul cultivator continuously helped him stabilize his breathing, energy flow, posture, and circulation paths automatically.

It felt almost unfair.

Eventually—

Boom.

Clayne felt another surge erupt throughout his body.

His cultivation rose again.

Then again.

Then again.

The Spiritual Qi from the chips continuously strengthened him rapidly.

...

Meanwhile...

Outside the school building...

The mysterious girl wearing the school uniform finally reached the corpse of the fully mutated zombie.

The creature now lay motionless against the concrete below while black blood continuously leaked from its shattered body.

Even dead...

The corpse still looked horrifying.

Its elongated limbs remained twisted unnaturally while sharp claws dug deeply into the concrete ground.

The girl slowly crouched beside the corpse afterward.

Then carefully—

She reached toward the back of its head.

A few moments later—

Crunch.

She pulled something out slowly.

A crystal.

The object glowed faintly beneath the moonlight while traces of biological energy continuously flowed inside it.

The girl’s breathing slightly quickened afterward.

"This..."

Her eyes gradually brightened.

She immediately understood its value.

This crystal could strengthen her biology tremendously.

Especially her parasitic tail.

Then afterward—

The girl slowly looked upward toward the school building once more.

Her expression became serious.

Because honestly...

She still had no idea what actually killed the fully mutated creature earlier.

The weapons piercing the undead had already melted together with the acid like blood, making proper investigation difficult.

Yet regardless...

The result remained terrifying.

Something inside the school killed a fully mutated undead effortlessly.

That fact alone felt frightening.

Soon afterward, the girl quickly retreated toward a safer hidden location before sitting down quietly.

Then—

Without hesitation—

She swallowed the crystal directly.

...

Meanwhile...

Back upstairs inside the school—

Clayne finally opened his eyes slowly.

Then immediately—

He clenched his fists.

Power.

He could clearly feel it now.

Compared to earlier, his body had strengthened significantly once again.

His muscles felt lighter yet sturdier.

His senses sharpened even further.

Even his breathing became steadier naturally.

Most importantly—

The impurities leaking from his body this time were far less disgusting than before.

Only thin traces of dark residue remained across portions of his skin now.

And unlike before—

The smell barely bothered him anymore.

"That’s much better..."

Clayne immediately cleaned himself afterward using spiritually enhanced water once more.

After ensuring everything was properly washed, he settled down again before continuing his training.

This time—

He focused on immortal spells and combat familiarity.

Because although his cultivation increased rapidly, his body still required adaptation.

So Clayne continuously practiced.

Movement.

Breathing.

Throwing techniques.

Silent Sword Sect dagger methods.

Silent Blade Throw.

Spiritual Qi circulation.

Everything.

Again and again.

Again and again.

Sweat continuously covered his body afterward while his movements gradually became increasingly precise.

The instincts inherited from the ancient soul cultivator continuously assisted him greatly.

Whenever Clayne performed techniques incorrectly, his body naturally adjusted itself faster.

Whenever he misunderstood something, instinctive understanding gradually corrected it.

The process felt unbelievable.

At the same time—

Clayne continuously consumed more spiritually enhanced chips afterward.

Every crunch released dense Spiritual Qi throughout his body repeatedly.

The more he trained...

The more his cultivation increased.

Hours gradually passed.

Eventually—

Boom.

Another surge erupted throughout Clayne’s body.

His cultivation finally reached the Sixth Stage of the Qi Infusion Realm.

The moment the breakthrough stabilized, Clayne heavily exhaled afterward while sweat covered his entire body.

"...Damn."

He could clearly feel how much stronger he became again.

Then afterward—

Clayne decided checking the Tiny Immortal Sect once more.

The moment he opened the miniature world—

He immediately noticed something.

Crumbs.

Tiny chip crumbs remained scattered throughout one lone floating island.

Meanwhile, several Silent Sword Sect disciples nearby continuously stared toward the crumbs with strange expressions.

The spiritual energy leaking from the crumbs remained unbelievably dense.

Seeing the mess he accidentally caused, Clayne suddenly became curious again.

Then afterward—

He called toward one disciple nearby.

"You."

The disciple immediately looked upward nervously.

"Senior Deity?"

Clayne pointed toward one crumb afterward.

"Eat one."

The disciple instantly froze afterward.

Several nearby disciples widened their eyes too.

Because honestly...

The spiritual pressure leaking from those crumbs already felt terrifyingly dense.

Meanwhile, inside his head, Clayne honestly felt uncertain too.

What if the disciple exploded afterward?

Still...

Curiosity won.

"You might miss this opportunity."

Clayne spoke calmly afterward.

The disciple swallowed nervously.

He happened to be one of the important core disciples previously, yet after the destruction of the sect, such status barely mattered anymore.

More importantly—

He remained stuck at the bottleneck toward Core Formation for a long time already.

Perhaps...

This truly was his opportunity.

Eventually—

The disciple carefully picked up a tiny crumb.

Then slowly—

He swallowed it with difficulty.

The moment the crumb entered his body—

Boom.

The disciple instantly widened his eyes.

Massive Spiritual Qi erupted throughout his body immediately afterward.

His robes fluttered violently while spiritual energy exploded outward endlessly.

Without hesitation—

The disciple immediately sat down cross legged in lotus position.

Then—

Dark clouds instantly started forming above him.

The surrounding Silent Sword Sect disciples immediately became shocked.

"Senior Brother Li!"

"He’s breaking through!"

"He’s entering Core Formation!"

Excitement instantly spread throughout the nearby disciples afterward.

Several disciples immediately stepped backward while staring upward nervously toward the gathering clouds.

The phenomenon intensified rapidly.

Lightning continuously flashed throughout the skies while dense Spiritual Qi spiraled endlessly around the disciple.

The surrounding disciples looked completely amazed afterward.

"A single crumb..."

"Just one crumb actually triggered a breakthrough..."

"Senior Deity’s treasures truly defy heaven..."

Meanwhile, thunder tribulation clouds continuously gathered more densely above Senior Brother Li.

Then—

BOOM.

The first thunder tribulation descended violently from the heavens.

Yet despite the terrifying pressure—

Senior Brother Li remained seated firmly.

Spiritual Qi continuously erupted from his body afterward while resisting the heavenly thunder.

Then another thunder descended.

Then another.

The surrounding disciples watched nervously the entire time.

Eventually—

After enduring the final thunder strike—

Boom.

Powerful Core Formation aura instantly erupted from Senior Brother Li’s body.

The surrounding Silent Sword Sect disciples immediately widened their eyes afterward.

Then instantly—

Cheers erupted throughout the floating islands.

"Senior Brother Li succeeded!"

"He broke through!"

"Core Formation!"

Senior Brother Li slowly opened his eyes afterward while overwhelming excitement filled his face completely.
