A Genius's Mind

*knock*

*knock*

*knock*

*Bang*

"Fuck, I'm concocting a pill what do you want brat" The alchemist open the door with rage, his face is black from all the ashes that has exploded from pill furnace. Smoke fumes out of the room.

"*cough* *cough* big bro time for the first test for chapter 1 hahaha" Fang Yun waved a book in front of him in an irritating manner.

"What, you already remember all the contents?" The alchemist stared at Fang Yun, he didn't believe a single word that came out of his mouth.

Fang Yun shrugged his shoulders and said "Ask me anything about the book, I can answer all of it".

The Alchemist nodded. He brought Fang Yun to the table of the study room after changing his robe. "List all of the vegetation and plants, Go".

"Green berry grass".

"They have grass in the shape of berries".

"Mostly used in concoction of healing medicine".

"White gown lily".

"Blue stripe Kyle".

"Yellow Lemon grass".

.

..

...

"Dragon bane's root"

"Shape like a dragon scale with a variety in color that can change the medicinal effects, It can be used as both an aphrodisiac and calming pill"

The Alchemist looked at Fang Yun in shock, an 8 year old without any qi circulation, remembered the whole first chapter of plants and vegetation.

"HOLY FUCK KID YOU ARE THE FASTEST PERSON TO REMEMBER ALL THIS!!!" The alchemist was slapping his own head to check if he was hearing correctly.

"Hmm ,let me check your head a bit, I think I know the reason why your memory is so good. If it is like I hypothesize then you will be the most badass kid in the whole Universe hahaha" The alchemists seem to reach a realization.

"Hahaha come come big bro, check the amazing head of mine that can remember anything as soon as I see it".

The Alchemist moved his hand and put it on Fang Yun's head a small stream of white qi surrounded the alchemist's hand. The white strands slowly sank into Fang Yun's head searching for something.

After a time it took an incense stick to burn the alchemist let out a gasp "It-It is a spiritual see, How-how is this possible kid you are a Fucking monster".

"What is a spiritual sea big bro? what does it have to do with my head?" Fang Yun asked with a puzzle expression on his face.

The alchemist sighs and grabs a book from one of the shelves set around the study room. The book in his hand has a title written in a noble and refined calligraphy. Cultivation of the 13 realms.

"First I will explain to you the current realms of cultivation that exist in this world. The first realm of Cultivation is called the Qi condensation realm. In this realm a person must absorb the Qi in the surrounding air or absorb energy from other sources like pills and elixirs to condense the Qi into liquid form in their Dantian"

"What's a Dantain big bro?"

"A Dantian is the core of a Cultivator, in most cases without a Dantian you can't even start cultivation. The Dantian is like a storage tank that stores the liquid qi and distributes them to your meridians"

"Oh yeah what's the Meridian?" Fang Yun asked with an excited expression this was the first time he was getting to know the process that occurs when someone cultivates.

"The meridian is the Acupoint that is located in various places around the body, they are like a system that the Dantian use to transmit power to use the qi externally or internally".

"Now let's talk about the realms that exist in the qi condensation realm. This is very important so better remember it brat".

"Yes Big bro".

"There are 3 stages in the Qi condensation realm, the first stage is called the early Qi condensation realm that consists of the first 4 levels of Qi condensate, next is the mid or transformation level. It consists of the 5, 6 and 7 levels of Qi Condensate. The third stage is called the late or peak stage. It consists of two levels the 8th and the 9th."

"After advancing to the peak of qi condensation I, depending on your cultivation technique and body type the condense qi in the Dantian will start to transform. This transformation will depend on many factors but cultivation technique plays the biggest part. The Qi will form foundations around the Dantian to further stabilize and assist it. In this realm both the quality of the qi and quantity of the qi will face a Heaven defying change. The qi will be condensed in a much higher quality and quantity."

"*cough* what's this realm called?"

"The Foundation establishment Realm, I can only tell of its existence but I can't go into deep detail about it you have to figure it out on your own." The alchemist spoke with a Solemn tone.

"After that is the Core forming realm, I won't be saying much about it but that's when a person can condense his or her spiritual sea" As the alchemist spoke he seems to be reminiscing about something.

"The spiritual-"

"Big Bro!!! what comes after core forming? is it being a god? can you fly in the air like all the stories, can you destroy a city with a single flick of a finger? what realm are you at big bro? Tell me Tell me Tell me I wanna know".

"Shut up, I'll only tell you the things you should know, no nonsense"

"Anyway the spiritual sea is a manifestation of your soul force, normally a person's soul is not strong enough to withstand the manifestation in the early cultivation realms. As a person cultivation increases his soul will also receive the baptism from absorbing and refining qi. A soul seed will be formed, that's the embryotic form of the spiritual sea."

"Big bro I'm dizzy why is it so difficult to understand what you're saying?" Fang Yun shook his head left and right

"Whatever the spiritual sea enables you to have spiritual-sense and better control of external qi. The earlier a person condenses a spiritual sea the better. It's much easier to nourish it as your cultivation is low".

"Wait how did I condense a spiritual sea if I'm just *cough* If I'm just a crippled?" Fang Yun glances behind the book shelf and notices a book with a picture of a girl blowing on flute and sitting on a rock near the river.

The Alchemist also turns around to see that book, he waves his hand in the direction of the book causing it to fly to the bottom of the shelf.

"Damn Brat concentrate this is not the time to be looking at distracting things" The alchemist spoke more berating words before continuing on the topic.

"I have no idea but my guess is that the Ancient Meridian Forging Pill that was suppose to reforge your meridians condense a spiritual sea instead because I crippled your spirit root before it can absorb any energy from the surroundings. So the only thing the pill can do other than reforging your physique is creating a spiritual sea".

"Fuck I'm so thirsty after talking so much, oh I seem to forgotten about the combination of vegetations test are you ready kid?".

"Hahaha I'm a genius that even gods and ghosts will prostrate to, Bring it on!" Fang Yun smiled with confidence as he answered the alchemist.
