Chapter 4, Training

He's eyes started to burn, at first it didnt hurt very much but they gotta hotter and hotter. All he could see was black, he held his urge to scream and grabbed his bedsheets tightly.

Soon the pain faded, yet he still couldnt see..

'Oh my eyes are closed.'

Opening his eyes he saw the world more clear..

No clear is too much of a understatment, he could see atoms, molecules, dust. He could adjust what he wanted to see at all times. He felt his eyes moved extremely quick, he could analyze something in a milisecond.

'Did it upgrade my brain too...whatever makes me stronger I guess.'

There were many other qualities, he could infuse Time qi into his eyes to see the past. In the future he might be able to perform divinity.

Excited his brain suddenly stopped,'What if my master see's my new eyes.'

He quickly went into his private bathroom, looking in the mirror he saw his beautiful brown eyes had disappeared. In their place two gold dragonic eyes laid, they had magnificence like no other. Even he the owner of his eyes felt somewhat of a pressure.

'System why is it suppressed?'

[Other bloodline is suppressing it, please get stronger to control bloodlines.]

'What can suppress a Dragon God...'

He looked to the edge of his bed, coming from the bathroom he picked up the earrings.

One being a plain black circle, he fiddled with it before narrowing his eyes.

'A spatial earring?'

He happily put it on his right ear, it pierced his ear as blood slowly dripped.

Ignoring this he picked up the second earring.

It was a white cross, looking at this he frowned playing with it for a while. Not finding anything special he tried to inject Qi into it.

It glowed before he felt his strength rapidly increase. Breaking through to foundation establishment, all the way to the peak before breaking into golden core. His strength was still rapidly rising before stopping at the peak of golden core.

He was shocked before disspelling the enhancement.

'It should last 2 hours..and it only takes 1 day to recharge. Not only that it acts as a spiritual array, gathering Qi for me and it. Although it is quite useless in that aspect currently...'

He shook his head before picking up the white faceless mask. Puting it on he immediately noticed its power.

Not only did it hide his aura, he could adjust his cultivation level. Even make himself appear to be a Nascent cultivator..If he wanted he could literally lower his cultivation as well.

Sadly it suppressed his eyes by a lot, meaning he couldnt use his eyes abilities very well with it on.

His reflexes stayed the same, even enhanced as there was a spiritual intelligence in his mask.

'Heh..Now im mysterious.' He took out his new cultivation manual before freezing...

'Baihu.'

He jumped up and rushed from his room, running out of the pavilion he found a lazy tiger basking in the sun looking out at the sect.

"Your so fat." Walking up to this lazy tiger he laid down on his new fluffy bed.

"Heh you'd make a nice bed..I wonder what you taste like." He licked his lips as he hugged his huge body. Baihu looked at him with a uncaring face.

"You're right. You're right. You're too cute for cooking." He roughed up his head before rolling off of him.

"Baihu..can you cultivate?"

He looked at him slightly before a terrifying aura came crushing down on him.

"Wha- Nascent Soul?" He recognized this aura from when he was trying out his mask.

"You...how are you so strong but left your poor master when he was fighting that terrifying beast."

Baihu snorted softly before ignoring him.

Looking out at the scenery he couldnt help but admire how calming it was. On Earth he'd never seen a place that coexisted with nature so perfectly.

Many small animals came here as it protected them. Usually Magical beasts would be killed if they are within a Sects territory. Excluding those tamed or captured, this being so, many weak animals hid in the forests of the sect.

Sitting down he opened the technique and studied it seriously.

To break through to Foundation Realm you have to convert the Qi in your spiritual mound into thick pillars. This way you can use Qi in large amounts without the worry of your spiritual mound becoming unstable and collapsing.

Once you form a pillar, it will stretch your spiritual mound even bigger. For those with high talent it is extremely easy.

Like Qi Gathering Realm, you are stretching your spiritual mound even larger. This is why those with a weak or limited spiritual mound cant advance.

Take a rubber band and stretch it, it will break if you stretch it too much. Although there are ways to make your spiritual mound larger. You cant rely on that forever.

The more condensed your pillar is the stronger it is. The spatial core technique discards the idea of nine pillars and makes one huge pillar.

He thought for a moment before discarding this way of cultivating. His spiritual mound was way bigger then regular people.

He started to gather the Qi in his spiritual mound and condensed it into a pillar. His pillar shined 7 different colors, thankfully his different Qi didn't reject eachother. Most likely due to how high his talent is.

His spiritual mound slowly stretched taller and taller. After 3 minutes it was twice as big, after 6 minutes it was five times its original size. At 10 minutes he completed his pillar and advanced to Foundation Establishment, making his spiritual mound 8 times its original size.

He grinned happily, he'd advanced. He decided it was time to train, 1 no...5 years of pure training with his Qi. After all he had a long lifespan, and the amount of talents and items he needed to learn to use was massive.

'Two months for each of my talents, after that I should learn to use my eyes, and I need to learn how to use this sword..' He looked at the longsword on his bed. The blade was pure white and the handle was silver.

Shaking his head he decided to start with his fire talent.

He tried to make a ball of fire, suprisingly it appeared instantly. It was about the size of his head and looked like a regular fireball.

He manipulated it easily, a face, a frog, a fairy...

It changed on his will, he stood up and went to the courtyard. He started to move around, sensing his body as he moved. Trying to flow easier, he started to move strangely. His body flowed through the air lightly, fire formed around him. It changed constantly, a dragon, a Phoenix, a deer....

The fire moved like water, no matter what it touched nothing burned. A leaf could go through it like air.

A small ant wandered around near the fire not feeling any heat.

Suddenly it struck and burned the ant into nothing. Before returning to its calm, Alastor was dancing around the courtyard with the flames dancing with him.

An hour passed, a day, a week, a month...

Two months passed quietly, slowly he left his trance.

'The Flow of Fire.' He raised his hand at a small flower. The flower went up in golden flames before slowly growing into a massive flower.

'Fire of Fate...' He thought silently before shaking his head.

In these two months he mastered all of his elements. Using fire he explored these elements quite easily. Although they werent as strong as his fire, they were close behind.

He pulled out his longsword, 'Let's train.'
