2 Life 2: The 708 Acupuncture Points that store ones Life Force

"That fool Atlas just wait until I catch him- Then I'll instill the fear of Buddha and the 18 Arhats in him!!"

Screamed Jian as he slowly took the jade bottle containing the 'Sacred Ointment' as he began to drench himself in it until he realised something- the 'Ointment' felt unusual and slippery yet cold as well.

It was completely unusual as if something else- and sensing this Jian turned his head towards the 'Ointment' as he realised just what he was lathering himself with...

"AAATTTLLAAAAASSS!! YOU SHITHEAD!!"

———_______———

Atlas the one who'd just pranked his Senior Apprentice Brother was a weakling of sorts if you will as he'd not awakened his Warriors Spirit at the age of 10 which was completely common in the Continent as most Warriors acquired a Warriors Spirit through rigorous training or through their very genes itself.

And because of this Atlas could fool about all he wanted because he was the black sheep of the family but still once in a while he would like to mess with his Friend Jian- no last name just Jian.

And like his name said Jian had a pair of Sword like eyebrows causing him to appear attractive but because of Atlas framing him as a pervert with his numerous antics most Warriors looked on at him with contempt though he was a very skilled Swordsman.

Jian was a prodigy unlike Atlas and was his only friend as the two had known each other since long ago - the two were complete opposites one with talent the other with idleness.

And Spirit's were important so much so that even someone on the same level as someone with a Warriors Spirit would in most cases lose because their special ability would give them the edge in combat be it offence or defence.

And the highest probability to inherit a Warriors Spirit was to have either a parent or two parents possessing a Spirit this meant that Spirit would later on be inherent by their offspring but without the baptism of blood it wouldn't awaken.

Some times one never gained a Warriors Spirit even though their bloodline prided themselves on the inherent genetic ability passed down by an ancestor.

And Atlas's family just happened to be the Titan Clan yes you've heard right the Titan Clan whose inherent genetic ability was the ability of their founding ancestor Atlas the Titan of Strength and Endurance.

The Warriors Spirit they prided themselves on was called the {Atlas Grade Titan Body} which was passed down by generations but Atlas ironically did not possess the Spirit of his ancestor Atlas the Titan of Strength and Endurance.

The {Atlas Grade Titan Body} was a spirit that once unlocked gave the user the ability to increase their strength and endurance immensely once first opened and it transformed one's body into something so dense that their bodies would be as dense as Stone however this Spirit could become stronger the more one trained reaching unparalleled heights in strength with ones physical body giving one the chance to become invulnerable to attack if fully mastered like Atlas their founder.

Atlas currently however was hanging on top of the cliff that he sat on to watch Jian get his ass whooped by the girls at the Femme Fatale Springs.

However as he sat suddenly a barely noticeable shriek occured behind him as he heard the shriek his body moved by itself towards the caves entrance as his body seemingly impossible to control moved towards the cave.

And once there all sense of light was diminished as his body continued to move on its own causing his mind to howl while his body remained quiet.

And once there his body continued to move forward with seemingly no signs of stopping as soon he caught sight upon a sparkling blue light in front it was cyan in colour and glowed in the darkness giving him the light to sight once again.

As he saw the cyan light he rushed forwards without a moment's hesitation and soon his body was covered by the cyan light as it slowly wrapped around him like a rope threading around him until... He was completely sealed from this world.

And once his breathing stopped a white gas like aura spread out from the Cyan cocoon of sorts as it wafted into nothingness...

And now on the other side of the Cocoon was a young man seemingly also called Atlas and he was just walking out from College as he'd put on his wireless earpods before he started his playlist.

The boy walked slowly as he headed towards the bus station to head off home- and like usual he said goodbye to his friends as he walked past the numerous shops on both sides of him.

Before then crossing the road while looking left and right in case he'd get run over oh he wouldn't like that...

But then as he was in the middle of crossing the road out of nowhere a truck of sorts seemingly teleported in front of him and with one decisive smart of pain killed him on the spot making a meat patty form on the roads.

And as the truck went by it looked the other way before saying, "Mortal I'm sorry for taking away your Karmic Bonds but believe me I need them more than you- and as a reward I'll give you a new life somewhere better somewhere you can live a life and reach the apex."

As Atlas died another Atlas arrived in his place recieving his predecessors memories and once this happened all of a sudden the cyan blue shell covering him began to drill needlessly inside his body causing such pain that his mind went numb.

As gradually he felt a course of energy pumping into his bones, muscles, ligaments and very soul strengthening him immensely.

He could feel something going though him giving him energy, vitality, strength and endurance far more than he had before.

And he could feel all 708 of his Acupuncture Points begin to be filled with a strange liquid like energy constantly refilling his overall power and it felt amazing as this was where ones life force was stored within all 708 Acupuncture Points- and he could feel that every time his strength increased his Acupuncture Points began to rip into shreds before healing once again.

Constantly enlarging his life forces capacity every time it did a circuit of flow- making him feel almost euphoric.
