Control

Yang Tian returned to the room and sat on the ground before starting to meditate in a cross-legged position. Although he was feeling a lot of pain in his body, he didn't wince in pain at all.

He tried to sense the Profound Energy around him.

And just after a breath or so, he was successful in sensing the thick Profound Energy around his body.

But… Yang Tian didn't try to absorb any of this Profound Energy right now.

His body was still not healed. He also hadn't even cultivated to the 1st Level of the Elementary Profound Realm so it would be useless for him to try and absorb the Profound Energy as it would be dispersed quickly.

'I have two ways, I can use the slower method and take nearly a month or so to reach the 1st Level of the Elementary Profound Realm but using negligible vitality. Or… I can use a forbidden technique to exhaust twice that vitality to reach the 1st Level of the Elementary Profound Realm in a day…' Yang Tian didn't need to spend a lot of time thinking about it.

'I guess it's better to use the latter method. As long as my strength rises, I would easily be able to recover this vitality.' Yang Tian had finalised his thoughts.

It took him less than a day to reach the 1st Level of the Elementary Profound Realm. However, the consumption of his vitality was slightly more than he expected.

After he reached the 1st Level of the Elementary Profound Realm, Yang Tian let out a sigh 'So… This is Profound Energy. It feels far too inferior to the Profound Energy I had felt in Xisu's memories. This feels so light that I hardly need to think to control it…'

Yang Tian had initially thought he would need some time to get used to the Profound Energy after he had checked out Xisu's memories. Still, he never thought that the Profound Energy would be so easy to control.

The little boy heard that Yang Tian would be willing to take him to the Blue Wind Profound Palace and was so excited that he couldn't help but run in the house for the entire day.

He really respected his grandpa for the 'amazing' strength he had. Moreover, his grandfather told him that he was merely a weakling when compared to the true experts. The little boy really wanted to become stronger than his grandfather and protect him from any harm. Or maybe help his grandfather any way he could.

Yang Tian mysteriously smiled as he talked with the old man and his mischievous grandson.

Anyway, not long after that, Yang Tian thanked the old man once again before leaving the house.

Now that he had healed, he knew it would be inconvenient to stay in the old man's house any longer.

Besides, concealing his cultivation base from the old man was quite a challenging task as even though he found the Profound Energy quite easy to control, he still needed to concentrate a little to keep it hidden.

Now that he had left the old man's house, it could be said that Yang Tian was free.

The first thing Yang Tian did was explore the entire Floating Cloud City. Whether it was the Xiao Clan's residence or the Xia Clan's residence, he looked at the whole city while thinking of several things.

'Nearly 5 months later, Yun Che will come with his fragment of Sky Poison Pearl. I should raise my cultivation base to a level that I can kill him extremely quickly before anyone in the Xiao Clan realises it…'

Yang Tian didn't have the slightest enmity with Yun Che. He didn't care whether he had one or not.

He knew that since the moment he had reincarnated into this world, he must do everything in his power to become stronger just to survive. Otherwise, he wouldn't he know how he died… This was the cruel truth about this world.

If he didn't possess strength, there was a chance that even an arrogant young master from this tiny Xiao Clan within the Floating Cloud City could accidentally kill him.

Right now, Yang Tian was headed towards the mountain behind the Xiao Clan. He could feel that the flow of Profound Energy was more abundant in those mountains than in the city. Moreover, there could be beasts he could kill to get something to eat and sell their hide…

With his Great Way of the Buddha at the 2nd Stage, Yang Tian didn't fear any beast in these mountains. Even if it turned out to be a True Profound Realm Beast, he was still confident in beating it down.

He would find the rest after fighting against the Profound Beasts.

As he reached the mountain behind the Xiao Clan, he was quite a bit happy. His senses didn't lead him astray… The energy here was truly much purer than in the Floating Cloud City.

He didn't hesitate any more and sat down on the ground before starting to cultivate.

After meditating and absorbing the Profound Energy from the air for nearly 5-6 hours, Yang Tian broke through.

'Even though Xisu lost the powers of the Heavenly Wolf Star God, he does possess a good bloodline as the member of Royalty. Along with the fact that he has Heavenly God's Spiritual Veins…Quite an advantage this is.'

He was at the 2nd Level of the Elementary Profound Realm. Yang Tian felt the profound energy he could use nearly double, but it still didn't pose a challenge for him to control it.

The Profound Energy seemed to be flowing along with his hand and move at his will.

'This was a lot easier than I thought…'
