YM778.TV Chapter 14 14
And before one could even cultivate, he or she will need to have a Spiritual Root no matter how low the grade is to cultivate.
But the Spiritual Root can\'t work without coexisting with Meridians, and Meridians lie within the blood vessels.
"Meridians are similar to Paths which allow Qi to flow within our body and flow back to the Spiritual Root. It\'s a neverending cycle" Daniel explained to Cecilia who was listening attentively to his lesson.
"The Meridians are beneficial to cultivators as it not only increases the Qi flow which will result in faster recovery of Qi, it will decrease the very small chance of a bottleneck, and it will increase your Qi Capacity"
"The benefits are endless. However, not all could receive this benefit. There are limits to how many Meridians a cultivator could have. In total, there are 369 Meridians around our body, but the average cultivator couldn\'t even awaken 5% of it" He explained further.
"So, master, how many Meridians did I awaken?" Cecilia questioned. She finds the lesson amusing as she wasn\'t aware that such a thing exists within her body.
"Naturally all" Daniel smiled as he had expected this question and he enjoyed seeing her clueless face.
"I know you\'re confused, but let me explain" He coughed and cleared his throat before continuing.
"As I\'ve said earlier Spiritual Root and Meridians would be the first key to unlocking the path of Cultivating. Now then, how about Physique and Bloodline? Do they not play a part in it as well?" He asked.
"The Bloodline that you have incorporated inside of your body is unfathomable power that has renewed and rewired your blood which is why most of your appearance has become ice itself"
"And if we consider physique that recreated your body from the inside, it\'s no wonder why you have awakened all of your meridians. Moreover, the sheer energy and potential of both of these is enough to awaken all of your meridians" He explained.
"I see..." Cecilia was aware that everything she had now was because of her master, and her feelings were getting stronger and thicker.
Nevertheless, Daniel was delighted with how much she was going despite the day had gone by.
"The thing is, there\'s no definite answer as to how a cultivating could be, and the mystery behind it is as many as the stars in the universe. The possibilities are endless, but what is definite is that as long as you\'re here, I would give anything you want" Daniel cheesily said.
"Master..." Cecilia blushed at his words.
"Alright. Since it\'s getting late, how about you rest till tomorrow? We still have lots of lessons waiting for me to teach...especially our future \'lessons\' in the future night" He teased.
"Alright Master" She knew what he meant and instead of being disgusted, she was looking forward to it.
Eventually, Cecilia returned to her dormitory while Daniel was left alone.
\'System is it possible to absorb the Spiritual Stones I have to increase my cultivation level?\' He questioned.
He currently had an astronomical value that even the whole mortal world couldn\'t compare to his fortune.
* It is not possible, but rather, it could *
\'Almost caused me a heart attack, and I never thought that you could joke\' He thought.
* Well, once in a while, the system wants to join in the fun. But coming back to your question, the Host could absorb the Spiritual Stones and there are no side effects from absorbing too much *
* If the Host wants, the Host could logically increase his cultivation to the Peak of Half-Immortal Rank and there will be no problems with doing so. After all, the system is here to help you to the fullest, and not be a jerk about it *
\'I\'m glad that I have you\' Daniel thanked his lucky stars that he got such an overpowered and also an understanding system that helps in whatever he needs to do.
\'But why not till the Immortal Rank?\' He wondered why he couldn\'t become Immortal as the legends and history had depicted.
* It\'s not that the Host isn\'t able to be an Immortal. However, the passage between the Mortal World and Immortal World had long been broken for hundreds of thousands of years *
* If the Host would to suddenly become Immortal, the Host would automatically transport to the Immortal World as there\'s a restriction placed by the \'Guardian\' of the Mortal World *
The more the system was explained, the more Daniel became surprised. Such information was not revealed to the public, and he was mostly stunned about how there\'s a guardian in the world.
* As such, the system recommends not to be an Immortal first before Host has created a solid sect that has its name spread all over the world *
\'But can the passage be fixed and what would happen if the passage is fixed?\'
* The Passage can be fixed, and if it has been fixed...then, immortals would appear in the mortal world and cause havoc *
\'I see...now I know why the Passage was destroyed. If Immortals are the way I imagine them to be, then, their presence in the Mortal World would only be destruction\'
Reading some novels, Immortals could have high egos and their pride knows no limits. Thus, Daniel thought it would not be a good idea before he completed his goal.
He doesn\'t fear them but rather, it will take too much work and he has yet to even start his conquest.
\'Alright, then can we start cultivating?\'
* Affirmative. Do you wish for me to handle the calculation and automatically deduct the necessary amount from your inventory Host? *
\'Yes please,\' He agreed without much thought.
* Deducting altogether 50k White Spiritual Stones to enter Mortal Rank Stage 10 *
* Congratulations, the Host has increased his stats by 2,000 times *
All of the sudden, a burst of aura exploded throughout his surrounding as Daniel began breaking through from the 1st Stage of the Mortal Rank to the 10th Stage.
\'This is..majestic...I feel like with my current cultivation alone...I could kill thousands of cultivators\' He concluded and it was not far-fetched.
He felt his body full of energy that could crush metals into debris and he finds it incredible.
If he excluded his overpowered abilities such as the Law, Domain, Sword Intent, Bloodline, and Cultivation Skill, he could battle against one thousand cultivators at the same rank due to his passive abilities.
* Since the Host does not have any bottleneck, does the Host wish to breakthrough into the Foundation Realm and continue breaking through? *
\'Yes please, and increase my cultivation till I have reached Half-Immortal Rank\' Daniel declared with a smirk.
\'What\'s the point of holding myself back and delaying the progression? Only an idiot would choose to delay when the opportunity is there
Daniel was using the system to the fullest and he won\'t hesitate in holding himself back.
* Affirmative. Calculating the altogether necessary amount to breakthrough into the Half-Immortal in one shot *
* Instead of using low-rank spiritual stones. 100 Immortal Spiritual Stones have been deducted *
* Congratulation, the Host has reached and attained the Half-Immortal Rank *
* The System has changed the numerical value and has updated the Host stats. As such, changes have been made, and automatically, all of the Host stats have become Half-Immortal since numbers could no longer measure the value of Immortal *
Daniel\'s eyes were closed as a heavy aura began oppressing the sect, and if it weren\'t for the sect\'s defense mechanism, his aura could have affected the world which would result in old monsters noticing his presence.
As Daniel opened his eyes, it felt like an ancient being had revealed himself, and if he were ever to stare at a mortal, his body would burst into a mist of blood.
That just shows how powerful a peak half-immortal can be without even using 1% of his prowess.
\'This is marvelous. I can feel absolute strength within my body and it\'s not a joke if I can make a continent disappear\' He clenched and opened his fist for few times before he breathes in with the new strength he has.
And hearing the system notifications, he checked his status wondering what the status changed, and he can\'t help but nod at how simple it became.
* Status *
Hp: Half Immortal
Qi: Half Immortal
Prowess: Half Immortal
Qi: Half-Immortal
Mental: Half-Immortal
It was simple enough for Daniel to understand, and at some point, numbers can no longer decribe how powerful an Half-Immortal can be.
\'System I loved you so much, but now, I feel like having the Auto-Absorption Qi and Stat Points Pointless. I could completely rely on the Infinite Spiritual Mine\'
* The System has noticed this as well and has to make changes to the Auto-Absoprtion and Stats Points *
* From now on, Auto-Absoprtion will be changed into Equivalent Exchange where the Host can trade anything at the cost of stat points earned *
\'...\' There was only silent to Daniel response as he never ezpect for the system to do this much for him, and it made him feel bad as though he was complaining.
\'I\'m glad that I have you\' He said earnestly.
