Ki Center.

"... You're lucky you never lied once..."(Chun-Woo).

"I know lying in front of someone with your skill level was a useless endeavor. So what do you want?"(Jin).

"I decided to train that boy Shi-Woon... I just don't want your interference with it..."(Chun-Woo).

"Wasn't even planning on it in the first place... But a disciple to the Goomoonryong, the boy will be a monster."(Jin)

"We will see..."(Chun-Woo).

Seeing as the talk has ended I just continue walking towards where my home is, but when I least expected it a voice came from behind

"Well, if you decided to make your mouth loose. Remember that a teacher has access to his student's records. So I know where you live..."(Chun-Woo).

That wasn't ominous at all, and I am certain the chill I had on my spine right now is just a byproduct of my imagination. The guy can be pretty scary when he wants to, I am just glad he is way more chill than his New Waves version. Well, now I am pretty 'limited' on what I can do at school, but it's still better than being suddenly discovered and being killed.

*Sigh* It's better to get home and try reaching my Ki center, Chun-Woo will leave me alone if I don't mess with him now. I slowly walked home thinking about how things are going... I guess I should visit my mother again, tomorrow after school sound like a good time as any, I just hope the doctors have some good news but is sincerely doubt it.

Reaching home after that chilling encounter with the Goomoonryong I was prepared to reach my Ki center. This time I have a good feeling about this, I get I will able to feel my Ki center today.

I took off most of my clothes and admire my muscled body a bit, a body that could easily fit me with the stardust crusaders, and a height and muscles that put me on par with Jotaro. But now it's not the time to admire my body, now I need to cultivate.

I start by using the breathing exercises of the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique], doing deep and rhythmical breaths, suddenly I was able to feel my Ki flow, all the Ki channels and blood flowing together, I could feel it inside of my bones, of my blood and even my cells.

I roamed my Ki channels with the help of my flowing Ki, I roamed and roamed trying to reach my Ki Center. Then when I was on my spine, one of the deepest and largest Ki channels of the body, I took down in the large channel in hopes of reaching my Ki center.

My heart thumped and thumped. Its sounds like a clap of rolling thunder, and the blood that flowed like a tidal wave of both Ki and blood. Following both the channel and my instincts I entered a state of conscious and unconscious at the same time, some kind of lucid dreaming if you will. But my only focus was on reaching my Ki center.

In that strange state, I went further and further making my previous progress appear minuscule by comparison. I had momentum and inspiration so I went further and further. My breaths completely rhythmical and hypnotic in my state I didn't even need to focus on it I was doing it only by instinct.

And then I reached my Ki center, my whole body relaxed and I could feel more Ki being pumped in my body, it revitalizes and boosted it. But when I was feeling the new sensations and changes that was being connected to my Ki center, I looked? at it.

My Ki center was a mix of yellow, purple, and red. The colors mixed on some strange combination looking like a flame maintaining a generally spherical form, it was... Beautiful beyond belief, I could literally feel how precious this little center was to me, how much connected and literally part of being it was.

I felt the warmth and the satisfying sensation of finally finding a part of me, it was like I finally found a piece of me that was missing, now I know why Shi-Woon felt so distraught at having his Ki center destroyed in cannon. It must've felt like you found you had a new arm, you liked your new member and felt really complete with it, and then someone goes and destroy said member making it useless.

Reveling at the new full and plentiful sensations my Ki center brought to me I was happy. I know about the second part of the first step of gathering Ki in my Ki center and distributing it towards my body, but I want to familiarize myself with it first. Heck, it was just like I discovered a new arm on my body, never had I used it, so I need to get a feel for it.

So I continued using my Ki to observe and interact with my Ki center slowly rising my control and proficiency with it. I felt like a kid with a new toy exploring the myriad things you could do with it and my imagination, at this time I wasn't thinking about new skills or any of my problem. It was just me and my Ki.

Sadly my body still wasn't used to it. Yet. So I had to stop for a bid and get a breather, I felt somehow pretty tired and happy at the same time, so I just made some food ate it, and took a bath. Some deep breath channeling [Ripple] and I was filled with the positive energy of the sun.

When I took a meditative position again this time it was way easier finding my Ki center, heck I didn't even need to meditate to know it was there, the same way you don't need to meditate to know your heart is beating or that you are breathing. I guess it's such a novelty right now because it something entirely new, as time passes I will probably get used to it like we ignore our nose in our field of vision or how we breathe automatically without notice. First thing first I need to change my rhythm of breathing to the same as the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique], and change my unconscious and automatic breathing until it is the same as [Black Heaven and Earth Technique].,

I could easily find my Ki center right now, but this time I noticed that my Ki had a yellow hue, which must be due to me using [Ripple] not too long ago. I guess when I have more experience dealing with Ki I could investigate how [Ripple] worked or interacted with my Ki. Maybe I could even create some combos using both techniques. One of those ideas was intercalating both the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique] and [Ripple] breathing method, I could use [Black Heaven and Earth Technique] and let it flow and circle on my Ki channels, and when the circle is close to finishing I would use [Ripple] and fill myself with the positive energy of the sun and getting a boost, and then starts circulating the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique] again.

This idea has a lot of potential. But I guess I need more time, training, and experience with both the [Ripple] and the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique]. No matter let's do it step by step, Rome wasn't built in a day after all.

Taking a deep breath I started the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique], but this time I noticed something different. Until now I was doing the basics of the basics, so I didn't have a clear picture of how it worked.

But now with my Ki center and Ki flow, I could feel something special about the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique]. No, to be more accurate I could feel how special this technique felt to me, it felt like it was perfect for me, it flowed easily and smoothly like all this time I was just waiting for it, fuck... It felt like it was custom-made just for me. I didn't feel it before but I guess my compatibility with the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique] is over the top.

Why? No, I already have an answer to this stupid question... my [Fury] obviously, if the [Black Origin Threshold] is the essence and literally the purest form of the technique and its literally a berserker state much too similar with my [Fury], I guess its no surprise that I would have such huge compatibility with the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique], its kinda strange to feel like some technique is literally tailor-made for you, but guess that is a good thing.

Maybe that is the reason that I found my Ki center rather 'easily', not as easy as a monstrous talent like Shi-Woon but easier when compared to the normal people of the murim that need months to do it.
