Lots of Books

As the heavy obsidian door slammed closed behind her, Vanessa found herself really glad that this room followed the trend of the rest of the base in that it had crystals lighting up the room. However, these crystals shone shades of purple and deep aqua green, bathing the room in an ominous lighting. The crystals were widespread to encompass the enormous size of the room. They were on the walls, the floor, the tables, the bookshelves...

Speaking of which, there were tables and bookshelves. Lots of bookshelves. It seemed that Vanessa had entered into the library. And what a massive library it was. She must've walked past 20 rows of shelves before the room opened up into a circular clearing filled with tables. The central clearing of the room was larger than Vanessa's whole house. And while said house was no mansion, it was a home large enough to fit a small family of futas comfortably. The center of the room was surrounded by bookshelves on all sides, and as she looked up, Vanessa could see that this library must've had at least a dozen floors, each the same size as this.

From the ceiling of the massive chamber hung a crystal shining with a hot pink light that fused with the purples coming from the floor to bathe the center of the chamber in a light bright red color that grew lighter as one ascended. The crystal on the ceiling had spanned the diameter of the entire central opening on the library, meaning it must've also been bigger than Vanessa's whole house.

Baffled by the sheer size of the chamber, Vanessa walked forward slowly, stunned, and mindlessly moved a chair to sit down and take a moment to process the scope of the library. No sooner had she rested her arm on the table then it lit up with glowing purple characters. The characters first spanned across the table, before traveling down it's leg across the floor, and unto another table. The process repeated again and again until all tables were covered in characters. The characters then seemed to come alive, moving off of the table and onto the shelves, balancing themselves in a circular pattern as they connected each book shelf surrounding the center of the room. They pulsed with a purple and red light a couple times before glowing brightly, so much so that Vanessa found herself involuntarily closing her eyes.

When she opened them, the runes had dulled to a dim glow. They were present and in color, but they were not really giving off any light. That was only a background observation-one made idly, since Vanessa wasn't ready to process what she had seen in the middle of the room. With her brain trying it's best to calm down, however, she turned her attention over to the center of the room.

The image that she saw there was a futa, and a massive one at that. She didn't quite seem to be physically present-her body was made up of the red and purple lights that came from the runes. She stood bare, exposed to the world, in all her glory. And glorious she was. She seemed the definition of an alpha cultivator futa. She was more than 9 feet tall, with K-Cup gravity-defying breasts and an ass to match. Her cock, for such a beast could be called no less, was 24 inches while flaccid. The futa's flowing hair extended to brush against her angles, and her musculature was highly defined, but not compact and overwhelming. The muscles gave off the feeling of a tightly coiled spring, compressed to its most compact state under thousands of tons of pressure, ready to burst free and unleash the massive **** that came with it at any moment. But perhaps the most striking part of the futa was her gaze, which felt to Vanessa like it pierced through her very existence, despite the fact that this futa had no physical presence.

Then the entity opened her mouth and when she spoke, her voice sounded like the ringing bells of heaven and the ominous **** tells of hell, fused into one. It promised the greatest pleasures and deepest pains one could receive, depending on the mood and relation to this being.

"Pay attention, and heed my words, young one," she said. "I have not much time before my enemies approach. While they know the general location of the entrance to our base, they know not the exact location or the method of entry to our base. They seek more to hunt us down and eliminate us then to obtain our treasures, so as long as we all die in battle, the techniques we have obtained, the knowledge and spirit of our sect, will not die with us. With us gone, they will not have the drive to locate our base, and discover its method of entry. As such, I must record this message quickly, and then join my sisters in one final, glorious, battle.

"I know not how long it will be between my recording of this message, and the discovery of our final holdout, so I offer you, lucky adventurer, a method of telling the time for yourself. Next to the doorway to this room, is a Dweller Vine. This vine grows a foot every thousand years, downwards. I planted it 10 feet above the ground on the wall only minutes before recording this, so it's age should be equal to that of the time since our sect's extinction.

"I apologize, young futa, for the preamble. Here is the important part-the message I offer to you!"

Vanessa, stunned but attentive, could not help but feel that her life was about to change as she perked up and concentrated on the futa's every word.

"I am Lady Delphini, last sect leader of The Twisted Desires Sect, the greatest forbidden sect of its time. As sect leader, I bestow the will of the sect upon you. Take our base, our library, our knowledge, and inherit our wills and desires to reach to the heavens, and ascend to the realms of the gods and beyond. Restore our sect, now YOUR sect, to its former glory, and let The Lands of Futaria echo with our name, The Twisted Desires Sect, once more. I can not give my knowledge of cultivation to you. The journey is a long one, one you must walk yourself. I can not give you a short cut on the path, more so than the base and environment from which you can learn, anyways.

"But there is knowledge I can grant you. I will grant you the knowledge of this final stronghold, The Hidden Hall of the Twisted Desires Sect. So come!" Lady Delphini took a step back from the center of the library's opening at this. She raised her hands up and opened them creating a space between her palms, approximately 6 feet off the ground, for one's head to fit between her hands. "And I shall grant you knowledge."

Stunned, Vanessa just stood there, barely able to comprehend what was happening.

"Are you ready? The sudden influx of information may cause some pain, although if it is too much to handle, you will never be able to walk the path of cultivation."

Snapped out of her stupor by the voice, Vanessa began to walk forward, a grin spreading out across her face, her heart giddy and a flutter with her excitement.

"I will begin the transfer of information in 3..."

Hearing the countdown, Vanessa began to sprint towards the center. Within a second, the contractions of her lungs and chest caused her broken ribs to begin to ache and burn, but she only sped up at the pain.

"...2..."

Vanessa slid to a stop right into the center of the room, her right foot extending and going between the feet of the imposing image of Lady Delphini. Idly, Vanessa noted that each of the Sect Leader's tits was as wide as her torso. She wondered if the insecurities about things such as her own bountiful cleavage were part of the dominating presence of an Alpha, superior to those beneath her in every way-as a fighter, as a cultivator, as a futa, and as a woman.

"...1..."

Hurriedly, Vanessa stood up, placing her head right between the hands of the sect leader. Drinking in the alpha presence that she felt just from the physical form of the image of Lady Delphini, Vanessa wondered what it would have been like to feel the aura of the lady in person. She imagined that her presence alone would make civilians like herself into brain-dead beta bimbos in seconds. No contact or **** needed. It got Vanessa wet and hard just thinking about it, and she repressed the desire to start fingering herself.

Shaking her head, the explorer decided then and there that her aim would be to become an alpha cultivator that Lady Delphini would be proud to call her successor-one that rivaled or even surpassed her.

"Transferring knowledge of The Hidden Hall of the Twisted Desires Sect!" And suddenly Vanessa felt her an intense agony, like a hundred needles stabbing into her brain. She screamed, further causing pain to her aching ribs. Then the pain stopped. Vanessa couldn't decide if the pain had lasted 100 minutes or 100 miliseconds, but she decided it didn't matter.

It didn't matter because she now understood everything about the base. She knew how the library was laid out, and where to locate the books that she should start her path to cultivation with. She knew how to navigate The Hidden Hall-where the medical wards were, where the underground farms for secret and forbidden rare medicinal herbs were, and where the storage areas were. She knew where the prisons that stored the slaves were. She knew where the **** chambers used to break in the resistant ones were. She knew where the sties used to house the cultivation vessels were. She knew where the food was, and how it was kept fresh even after all these years. She knew where how the glyphs in the entry chamber of the Hall existed to stop and levitate those who fell at about 3 feet above the ground, dissipating their momentum and keeping them safe.

She knew where the exact was, a staircase that began in the center of the base and came out of a secret exit at the middle of the Ancient Cock-Foundation Pine that would only open from the outside. And she know how the entrance existed as a thin horizontal opening at the base of the tree that one would have to crawl through, and could only do so if they possessed no resolve, leaving them below the stage of First Resolve Condensation. And she knew the basin where the Sect kept the pills that removed all of one's resolve from their body for a single minute, allowing them to enter into the base.

And as she begin to once again pay attention to the rest of the world, Vanessa realized that the image of Lady Delphini was already fading away. Right as she disappeared, the sect leader to manage out one final order. Be strong, young futa. Vanessa nodded, and walked back towards the edge of the circle. And from the innermost layer of bookshelves, she began to search about until she found what she was looking for.

Basics of Resolve

Vanessa sat at a table, and let the Pink light coming from the ceiling illuminate the first steps of her journey to immortality.
