Chapter 181
Chapter 181
Ibro was left alone in the room. The first he did was to take a deep breath trying to calm himself. He had been under constant stress for a long time.
Since he came back from the future he didn't gain one second on rest. He thought his coming back would make his life easier, instead, it made it messy.
He then looked at this ring. He started to check its content with his mind. It had a really wide space inside.
Although it was smaller than his dimensional bag that was full of ores, its space was big. Inside there wasn't only the cultivation technique.
Ibro found rows of different things there. Some were bottles like the one he drank when he was injured before.
He concluded they were like potions in the game. There were other things too like weapons and ores.
He didn't know what these things were used for but what he cared about now was this cultivation technique. Ibro retrieved this cultivation technique. It was written on a scroll.
He opened it and began to read it carefully. To his surprise, this scroll content was much similar to the one he took from the saint.
The main differences were in the number of stages in this scroll. Here was around 10 main stages. Each stage had 10 substages inside.
The spiritual energy absorption was also a stage here. Unlike the technique which the saint had given him where this stage wasn't considered a stage at all.
He also found beside each stage the info related to each stage. This info included how to train in each stage, how to level up between substages, and finally, there was the test each cultivator had to undergo after ending one main stage.
This test was called heaven tribulation. He had never heard of such a term before.
There was some info related to these tribulations. Ibro didn't read them all as he had a long way till he could reach this step.
Ibro then checked the beginning of the training. It was written there that he needed to sit on the ground directly not separated by anything.
The reason mentioned there for him to be connected with the earth meridians. He didn't get the full meaning behind this word but he moved to sit on the ground directly.
He then took the posture that was drawn on the scroll. That posture was strangely similar to the picture that was provided in the saint scroll.
He closed his eyes then began to regulate his breathing in a monotonous regular rhythm. One breath in, keep it in for a second, then breathe it out.
He repeated this process time after time without stop. At first, he found it difficult to maintain this posture with his breathing but with time he started to accommodate it.
Time after time he kept breathing in and out like this. Gradually he felt some form of energy start to gather into his body.
This energy also resonated with some sort of energy deep in the ground. With time he felt he was united with the universe around him, he felt the same tranquility he felt in this world since his foot touched it.
He lost his realization of time, space and even himself. He kept breathing in to take the whole world into his body and breathe out to take the world out.
Suddenly he jolted from this state under the effect of the huge energy that was formed into his body. Ibro wasn't an 8 years old kid that started his training.
His body had been strengthened under the fire of different kinds of energy, so his body had strong innate energy.
Although he was surprised by the huge difference between the size of energy inside his body and the description written about the small size of energy every new cultivator would have, he didn't stand still and started acting.
The first he did was to guide this energy to go into his abdomen, focus on his navel and start to form a small nebula.
The technique scroll he got from the fire peak lady had depended upon the nebula cultivation technique, which was a weak common cultivation technique in this world as it was stated at this scroll.
Ibro didn't mind actually, he wasn't seeking perfection here, he was trying to survive.
He started to picture the shape of the nebula and tried to guide this shapeless mass to move in the same pattern.
It was hard work actually. He failed more than once. Every time he failed he gained more control over this huge lump of energy.
That helped him so he lept him calm and tried over and over again. He didn't stop even once to rest.
After endless times of failed trials, he felt a muffled bang sound erupted from his body followed by a surge of power suddenly.
He didn't know what was going on, there was no such explanation of this in the scroll. He calmed himself and tried to assess the new space he had developed in his abdomen.
There, he found a new space has been formed. The power that was in it was revolving at a rapid pace around a central axis.
The speed of this energy was increasing second after second. When he watched closely he figured out the source of this energy surge he was feeling.
Each time this energy broke through a higher speed it was like it broke through a barrier.
This energy began to break barrier after barrier without even showing any sign of stopping. Ibro didn't know what to do.
According to the scroll, he needed to rotate the energy inside his new dantian for at least 100 full rounds before he could start to open his meridians.
Now, this energy reached the degree that he couldn't even feel their speed anymore and his body kept booming again and again.
He decided to take the risk, this wild energy wasn't stopping at all. He didn't know what would happen if he stopped here.
He didn't have any confidence in his ability to deal with energy if it went faster. he started to guide the energy to move outside his newly formed dantian to feel sudden severe pain that jolted him.
This energy couldn't be touched easily. That made him more determined, whatever it took him he needed to stop it here and now.
He gritted his teeth. He needed to withstand that pain no matter what. He tried again with firm resolve this time.
He started to feel severe pain increasing second after second but he didn't stop in his trial.
He tried to push the energy with all the power he had to move outside the dantian but yet he failed again. this time he spit out a mouthful of blood and he even broke his posture.
He wiped out the blood and looked at the blood he spat. This energy is really toxic to him. He can never allow it to keep there anymore.
He clenched his fist and retook the posture again. He closed his eyes with extreme determination.
He tried this time and didn't push the energy, but he tried to shift the course of its rotation. He tried to make it shift towards outside the dantian.
He directed it towards one major meridian that was connected to his dantian according to that drawing at the scroll.
He pictured that drawing clearly in his mind and focused very hard trying to push it slightly step by step.
