Start Of Body Refinement

Li Jie went to the blood pool while holding the "Blood Path Orb" in his hands as it was mentioned in the information present in his mind, he entered the blood pool, which was deep crimson in color.

Mr.Teacher stood beside him near the blood pool assuring Li Jie of his safety, if something were to go wrong.

When Li Jie was completely submerged in the blood, he started reciting the incantation which would awaken the "Blood Path Orb", to start the true "PERFECT PHYSIQUE REFINEMENT" technique.

With the start of the incantation, the "Blood Path Orb" started to glow darker in color, when it turned to black in color, the surroundings also turned dark, for which Mr.Teacher created a blob of light to appear with a snap of his fingers.

Li Jie wasn't able to perceive all of this as he was busy reciting the incantation with his eyes closed, as he was preparing to withstand the upcoming pain that he would have to bear with the start of the true "PERFECT PHYSIQUE REFINEMENT" technique.

It was at this moment that the black-colored "Blood Path Orb" suddenly started sucking all of the bloodline essences, with it's continuous absorption the amount of bloodline essence started dwindling at a rapid rate.

Li Jie could feel the "Blood Path Orb" absorbing the bloodline essence rapidly, but he didn't understand why there was no pain as mentioned in the information provided, Li Jie then opened his eyes only to see an almost empty bloodline essence, when he noticed the final drop of bloodline essence getting absorbed into the "Blood Path Orb", he noticed that it's color first changed to Red then it turned to Orange after which it kept turning to Yellow, Green, Blue and finally Indigo, where it stopped.

Li Jie wasn't able to make out about anything that was going on in front of him when due to some reason the "Blood Path Orb", which was indigo in color now suddenly started spinning with increasing speed, not being able to hold onto it, the "Blood Path Orb" got out of his hands and caved in his chest, which was very alarming for Li Jie, as it wasn't mentioned in the information provided by senior Xing ZhenKang, there was only mention of extreme pain while practicing this technique.

The "Blood Path Orb" was digging in his chest, which was very painful for Li Jie, as it was a little big in size plus it was drilling into his chest due to unknown reason, Li Jie was screaming in pain as this pain was unbearable for him, the tissues on his chest started to squirm and were oozing blood which was unsightly to look at.

Spiral shaped pattern started appearing on Li Jie's chest as the "Blood Path Orb" got deeper into his chest, which was just infinitely agonizing for Li Jie, as he wasn't prepared for this, he knew that he will be experiencing pain but he didn't know that he will suffer in such a manner, with hope he looked towards his master for help.

Mr.Teacher shook his head, "As much as it pains my heart to see you in this state child, I cannot help you, because what I will give you will only be a temporary relief, what will you do when you suffer from something worse than this in future which you will be because of the path you chose, I know you are just a child who doesn't deserve any of this, but only with persistence will you gain success".

After Listening to his master, made Li Jie realize that he will not be getting any kind of help from his master, and he has to grit his teeth and wait for this hurdle to pass, the skin on his chest just kept twisting which just added more to his agonized state, as he was flailing his legs and arms around in pain.

The agonizing stinging sensation on his chest just kept increasing with the passing of time as the "Blood Path Orb" was digging it's way through his chest.

When the "Blood Path Orb" finally entered his chest, Li Jie felt that he would die any time due to a huge amount of blood loss from his body, when there were cracking sounds of his ribs which were extremely uncomfortable, to say the least.

Li Jie felt the almost broken center of his rib cage moving, as they were displaced due to the trauma forced by the "Blood Path Orb", he could feel his life slipping by when he felt immense life energy from his chest to his entire body.

The life energy that Li Jie felt coming from his chest made him relaxed, calm and relieved him of fatigue, he could feel his body healing, his disconnected rib bones connecting back and turning to how it was before, slowly and steadily Li Jie felt his chest getting back to how it was, the wounds on his chest and the traumatic injuries on his chest started to disappear.

Li Jie breathed a sigh of relief, as he felt himself escape from the clutches of death just a moment ago.

When Li Jie's mind turned stable and became aware of his surroundings, he noticed that the cavity where the bloodline essences were contained in, was now quarterly filled with his own blood, with the stability of his mind, Li Jie was assaulted with the horrible smell of the blood, which almost made him nauseated, feeling no matter how many times he experiences this, he will never be able to get rid of the nauseating part he felt about blood.

Li Jie stood up in the cavity, and weakly got out of it, when he chose a corner to sit and relax from all that has occurred just now,

Li Jie was then swiftly reading through the information in his mind about the "PERFECT PHYSIQUE REFINEMENT" technique, where he remembers skipping this important part which he kept for later, but now that he was relaxing, he started reading through it.

In which it was mentioned about the stages of body refinement cultivation which was created by Xing ZhenKang himself, while there were many other practitioners of body cultivation, there was never a universal grading system for it, as everybody refinement technique will have it's own grading system.

Xing ZhenKang's body refinement cultivation grading system was from the lowest being red and highest being violet, which was comparable to the grading of essence cultivation, it was as follows Red > Orange > Yellow > Green > Blue > Indigo > Violet.
