Hello Cultivator

"pluuugh"

"RYU!!!" all three of them shouted together as Ryu vomited blood.

Roland came close and tried to hold Ryu and said, "my child, are you fine? what happened? is there some issue?"

At this time Ryu was not in the state of answering these questions as there was an awakening in front of him. So He concentrated on awakening to know what has happened.

What he found made him frown inwardly. And he spoke gasping "Grandpa the spiritual energy was all used up in opening the meridian" when He spoke there was no happiness in his voice. 'Why???'

There was a simple reason that this happens with a lot of people, When a person Undergoes awakening, the person's body is not ready and takes time to adapt to the foreign energy and in this process of awakening much of the spiritual power goes to waste and they could not complete the awakening. many called these people "Half cultivators''

The issue with these people is that they have to go through the process again but with the same spiritual liquid which they took earlier. 'Why?'

Well as the first energy that the body got introduced will be the only energy that the body will accept, of course, there are ways to change the quality of spiritual energy but that is not possible at this level of cultivation and for those who have not even stepped in cultivation world like Ryu this is impossible.

As soon as Roland heard Ryu he ran towards the house and went inside. after coming into his room he opened an old box in which there was a bottle kept. This bottle was the same as the one Ryu drank while awakening A white porcelain bottle In the box there was more space for another bottle but this was the only bottle for now.

He picked up the bottle and quickly brought it outside where Ru and the others were. Amilia had held Ryu with a worried face. "here take this quickly "

Ryu looked at the bottle and took it "Thank you, grandpa"

hearing thanks from grandson Roland spoke "This is not the time of thanks, now quickly drink it, although it is not full bottle its somewhat can work"

Yes, the bottle Roland brought was not filled with the Natural spiritual liquid and was somewhat near half-point. why not filled fully, well because the stream of natural spiritual liquid was long gone and this was the last bit remaining of the liquid he could salvage.

Roland was thinking of selling this, although this bottle was filled it could be sold for at least 200 gold coins. Though he did not mind using this for Ryu's awakening that doesn't mean he was not worried.

The amount that can be brought by this liquid would be enough to live at least a good life at the end of his life. so he now had to work more again for the family. well, this was a worry for a later time and there was a more important thing in front of him.

Ryu took the bottle and opened it, again aroma filled the surroundings but he was not in state of enjoying the aroma at the moment. he was in a pain and only had a thought that was wanting to rest this was because the injury was making him weak but he pushed himself beyond the limit and drank the spiritual liquid.

'gulp gulp...'

Soon there was again in his stomach and running rampant. Ryu started focusing and in just a few moments he got control of the spiritual energy and started directing it toward the Dantian. But at this point, he did think of controlling the energy and pushed again.

Just as he was starting to pass the spiritual energy through the meridian, the meridian was swollen a little because of earlier rashness and now he was doing that again.

the pain which was making him dizzy now became like a sharp sword being pierced through his stomach. Getting more pain Ryu gritted his teeth's and then controlled the spiritual energy and the pain eased a little.

Then Soon the spiritual energy reached the Dantian. It was like a black circular glass is there which is not letting the spiritual energy go in. Ryu frowned seeing this, he remembered that there is something that is by covering the Dantian.

This is a protection Filament that is naturally formed to protect the dantian from any polluted substance or polluted spiritual energy going into the dantian directly without actually forcing.

This also works as the dividing force for children so that when they are born this protects their weak bodies from getting barged from the spiritual energy from inside the body.

Ryu then began Attacking the Filament With spiritual energy.

'Boom' the spiritual energy collided with the filament protecting the dantian.

As the collision occurred a backlash went towards the meridian and made him Grit his teeth more. Then a crack started appearing on the protective filament of the dantian. Then he gathered more spiritual energy and attacked the again.

'Boom boom..' as another battle occurred the Ryu's skin went pale to white. If a person sees him now he will think of a dead child who died sitting.

The beating heart and breathing were the only way to tell that Ryu was alive.

Amilia started crying as she saw the condition and these words left her mouth 'Ryu, please be ok after awakening'.

As more and more cracks started appearing on the protective layer, more pain followed and then another clash happened but as of now, the pain reached the limit that his conscious mind could handle and Ryu began to lose consciousness and fell to the ground.

As Ryu fell to the ground Roland Amilia and john quickly held him up.

"What happened to Ryu's father," john asked in a worried tone and Roland answered "he must have been tired after going through an awakening, he is still small"

"We must take him to a physician father'' Amilia said to which she got the reply ''We will wait for a little but if it seems serious then we will take him there"

As this was happening inside Ryu's dantian The filament barrier broke and a small strand of spiritual Energy went inside Ryu's Dantian and turned into spiritual Qi.
