6 Perceiving Qi
"oof"
Just as Ethan walked away he got slammed into the ground, he didn't evrnvknow how he landed on his back.
"hey get off of me..."Ethan tried to push her off, but as soft as her wait felt he couldn't budge it not even an inch.
Disturbed his hands Zhao Han pinned both of his hand above his hand with only one of her hand.
"Did you just pee on m-"Ethan shouted but stopped when he looked down.
Her hand was covered by a blue hue and water was slowly gushing out.
Ignoring Ethan Zhao Han continued to scrub his stamoch
"You look kind beautiful"muttured Ethan
"..."she stopped and looked at him
"Do you mind getting off of me"said Ethan as he had a stern expression and looking away.
"Ohh sorry"she let go of his hands but stopped a moment later.
"Is that"she quickly got up as she felt a burning area around her rear end, she turned around as her face turned red.
"Sorry" Ethan turned around in embarrassment.
"Let me see it" She said after a moment of silence as they had their backs towards each other.
"..." Ethan was shocked turning around slowly the fire in his pants reached a new temperature
"Is it a birthmark" looking at her face he noticed that her expression was deadpan.
"Yes"Ethan answered as he adjusted his mood
"Do you know who your mother is" asked Zhao Han as her expression turned even more serious
"Hmm I'm guessing you do" after a moment of thought Ethan feigned ignorance.
"Yes I do your mother ...your mother was the sect master " Ethan saw her suppress her tears as they went back in her eyes, saying so with deficulty.
"How can you be so sure and what does this birthmark really mean" asked Ethan curiously
"I'm not sure myself but before they attacked us the sect master said should we fail any survivors must look for a person with those markings"
"when asked she said you were her child and you had the ability to end our war"answered Zhao Han
"Wait who are they"asked Ethan
"The zombies we have fought for over a century although the war restarted eighteen years ago after a brief moment of peace, they were lead by their queen although no one knows her name we simply called her the Goddess of death.
Ethan had a worried expression on his face as this didn't solve anything but just added to his problems.
Turning around Ethan didn't say anything but just walked back in deep thought.
After following Ethan for a short while Zhao Han grabbed onto his shoulder and jumped up, Ethan felt a gust of wind and the scenery changed fast.
"What are your future plans" asked Zhao Han while walking in the long passageway, she was walking in front of him while looking at the ceiling.
"You seem to adjust pretty quickly" said Ethan as he looked at her hands behind her back.
"It would seem so huh" a moment later she disappeared and Ethan heard her voice
*Sigh*
Getting back to the campsite Ethan couldn't fall asleep so he decided to take out the beast cores.
"System what is the use of these things"Asked Ethan as he adjusted his sleeping position and face up.
[Host can either turn them into S.C.Points or use the qi inside it to cultivitate I would recommend the former]
"Ok than turn them into S.C Points" just as Ethan said that the black beads in his hands seemed to slowly loose its luster and directly turned transperate until they disappeared completely.
[Host has gained one hundred and twenty five S.C.Points]
[Host has gained one hundred S.C.Points]
"Stats" called out Ethan
[Stats]
* Race: Human
* Bloodline: ???/???/???
* Cultivation:Mortal
S.C.Points: 235
"Ohh than can I get that top tier breathing technique"
[Sure here you go]
Outshining his dim flashlight a book the size of a pamphlet covered in golden hue appeared in front of him, after noticing that its in English Ethan closed the book.
*sigh*
"I still can't sense the qi in my surroundings" lamented Ethan as his mood depend
[Perhaps host might need some assistance] the system called out
"You can help me sense the qi"asked Ethan with worry.
[Yes but it will cost the host five S.C.Points]
"Sure take them" said Ethan
[Ok I will need the host to first calm down and take a few deep breaths]
After Ethan calmed himself down he felt a gentle force wrap around every part of his body, the force grew stronger but just as it grew to unbearable to ignore Ethan felt something around his body.
Different from feeling the warm temperature it was like the was a constant breeze around his skin as if the air itself had gotten a texture that he could somehow feel but not touch.
[Congratulations host can now feel the the qi in the surroundings] said the system
"What did you do just now" asked Ethan as he felt weird about this new feeling he was getting from his skin
[I simple exposed the host to changes in the external environment that the host couldn't preserve, frustrated the hosts brain and body worked together to preserve what the host couldn't ]
Ethan understood everything as if it was dumbed down
"What now"asked Ethan
[Well now your body doesn't know that it needs this sort of element so what host needs to do is act according to the technique and directly absorb the qi from the air through your mouth]
Following the technique Ethan was finally able to control his imagination to an extent, and he saw that the really was qi everywhere including inside him.
Sitting upright Ethan began to breath in and out while visualizing what to do with his qi.
Following the technique Ethan began to cover the insides of his body with the qi.
[Congratulations host you have finally stepped into the road of cultivation] the system suddenly sounded in his ear
After an hour Ethan covered the entire inside of his body with qi.
*Sigh*
Ethan breath a sigh of relief
"stats"Ethan called out
[Stats]
* Race: Human
* Bloodline: ???/???/???
* Cultivation: first stage of qi gathering
S.C.Points: 180
"Wake up you lazy magats" Ethan's train of thought was disturbed by a loud shout.
"I should hide this" Ethan thought out loud as he looked under the bus chairs
[Host can just place it in the inventory ]
"Ok than do it" before Ethan could finish his sentence the book was covered by a blue hue and then it disappeared.
"Alex wake up" Ethan didn't need to exert much effort before his friend woke up.
"So how did it go" Alex as they got of the bus
"It was ok I guess" answered Ethan
"ok bring me along next time ok"said Alex
"Abselutely not its dangerous as hell" said Ethan sternly
"how come you went there and here you are safe and sound and not a scratch on you" protest Alex
"Safe and sound my guy"place s hand on Alex should "you have no idea how horrible it was most of the time I made it out by the skin of my teeth so no I'm not doing that again."
"Plus I know you told that cultivator chick I was going to sneak out...so thanks" said Ethan as he turned around
"...*sigh*..." Alex stood there in a daze
"What are friends for"said Alex as he caught up to Ethan.
Getting to the assembly Zhao feng looked in Ethan's direction and nodded shocking Ethan and confusing everyone else.
They started with some intense morning exersices and then they all went to the end of the dividing wall and had breakfast.
During breakfast Ethan saw Zhao Han talk to Zhao feng who also seemed to be shocked when she looked in his direction but nodded after.
"What just happened"
"where did he go"
Some students who were looking at Zhao feng and Zhao feng where shocked see him disappear.
"Let me see it" seeing Zhao feng appear in front of Ethan directly created envy in the hearts of many.
"Let me see it" repeating himself the second time Zhao feng didn't give Ethan the time to respond and directly moved his shirt out of the way and stared at his birthmark.
"Hey" Alex directly jumped up and grabbed Zhao feng by the clothes, directly jumping up a few boys came and surrounded Ethan
"Stop" seeing the situation the coach shouted stopping everyone
"what is going on" making his way through the encirclement the coach questioned feng
*Ahem*
"I'm sorry Han please teach the boys as well"waking up from his daze Zhao feng started floating upwards until he reached the ceiling and turned upside down and sat upwards.
He sat crossed legged and went into contemplation, only his hair and clothes gave him away that he was upside down.
After breakfast everyone stood in front of Zhao Han boys and girls.
"It looks like one of you was not only able to feel the qi but also brokethrough to the first level of qi gathering, congratulations Ethan"
