The Story of the Prince, Leiva
Chapter 16 - Practicing Hard
After returning to his own room, Leiva immediately entered the internal space of Stone Space and Time.
"Now, it's time for me to open the second Meridian.”
Leiva opened the jade bottle and drank all of the Angelic Water. Under the potential of Water Angelic, all the blood within his body felt like it was boiling. Using his great potential, Leiva immediately began opening the second Meridian following the instructions in Lord Shinichi Moniyan's Sacred Scripture.
The more Meridians opened, the faster the Spiritual Qi was absorbed and the faster the Original Qi's speed within his body.
The more Meridians there were within one's body, the stronger one's body was for Martial Arts. At the same level, he could unleash even stronger combat power. With the help of his past training experience, Leiva immediately opened the second Meridian and his Original Qi was also faster than before.
“My Qi container has not expanded yet, and I did not manage to reach the Earth Level intermediate stage. I have to open another Meridian.”
Leiva took the Blood Pill and regained his strength. After resting for about an hour, he returned to training, drank another bottle of Angelic Water, and began to open the third Meridian.
After opening a new Meridian, others had to recuperate for one to three months, usually to increase their tenacity and Meridian activity, before they started opening the next one. However, Leiva could not wait a month. He excitedly opened his third Meridian immediately to challenge the Earth Level intermediate Stage.
"I can do it. I have to make it. Tonight, I will reach at Earth Level intermediate stage.”
By holding the Spiritual Crystal, Leiva absorbed the Spiritual Qi within the Spiritual Crystal while expelling all the Original Qi in his body, and tried to the third Meridian vigorously.
Bang out!
A voice came from Leiva's forehead. His Qi container suddenly grew bigger and bigger. Now, his Qi container had already reached the sweltering stage.
“This is an Earth Level intermediate stage cultivation! This was only the beginning of the Earth Level intermediate Stage. I don't have much Original Qi left. Of course, Aki can advance now. If I fill the Qi container through training, the Original Qi inside my body will get better." Leiva felt extremely excited to make a great advancement of his martial cultivation.
The Qi container would also be expanded with a new higher level, which of course, could hold more Original Qi. If one could not break through to a new level, his Original Qi would never increase, even with years of practice. It was because the capacity of the Qi Containers was set for each realm and could only hold a certain amount of Original Qi as a reserve.
At the Earth Level intermediate stage, impurities from within the body are removed from the body through the pores. The dirt looked like a layer of black mucus and gave off a slight smell.
Leiva immediately took a bucket of warm water. After taking a shower, he put on a clean suit and immediately returned to the internal space of the Space and Time Stone. Holding the brush pen in his hand, he smoothly drew a human figure on the scroll.
Then, he drew 36 meridians of human figures according to his memories. The routes of travel for all these meridians are different from each other.
They had one thing in common, the 36 Meridians all gathered together in his Qi Container.
The first time Leiva read the first level of the Lord Shinichi Moniyan Scripture, he saw the same Meridian Graph on it without any explanation. It can only be felt by itself.
"The training method for the Low Class of the Human Stage can only open seven Meridians."
"According to Lord Shinichi Moniyan's Scriptures, there are travel routes for 36 Meridians. Each of them would enhance the practicing Meridians and help strengthen the Martial Arts Body. 36 Meridians, can I imagine how powerful the Martial Arts Body is?”
Leiva had only opened 33 Meridians in his last life. There were three other Meridians that he could not open no matter how hard he tried. With only 33 Meridians having been opened in his last life, he was able to defeat the people of his time. Even Empress Amber.
"Who is ranked number one? He's only able to open 32, one level below me."
“I have opened three Meridians that are now part of the Earth Level intermediate Stage. To break through to the Earth Level Advanced Stage, I must open at least three more Meridians.”
Leiva rolled up the Meridian Graph and placed it on the stone table. One had to first fill his Qi Container with Original Qi if he wanted to reach the advanced stage of the Earth Level.
If he practiced in the usual way, he would need a month and a half to fill his body and Qi Containers with his Original Qi, even with the help of the Spiritual Qi of the Spiritual Crystal. Leiva couldn't wait that long, so he decided to take his energy pills.
Energy Pills cost 1,000 silver coins. For ordinary warriors, it was a rare treasure. Even younger children from middle-level families find it difficult to obtain Energy Pills. Leiva had bought 10 at the time, where his cultivation could be increased quickly.
Energy Pills were as small as pearls and had a light aroma. A lump of Spiritual Qi could be seen flowing on the surface of the pill with the naked eye. He stuffed the Energy Pill into his mouth.
Moments later.
Bang out!
The Energy Pill exploded within his body and turned into a cloud of Spirit Pill, moving up and down inside him. The three Meridians took out the Spirit Pill at high speed. Traveling within his body to a large circle, gathering vital energy, the Spirit Pill then turned into Original Qi and then stored in the Qi Container.
Even though Leiva tried his best to absorb the Spirit Pill, there were still 70% who ran out of their pores, meaning he only received 30% of the Spirit Pill from the Energy Pill. He had spent the entire day turning that 30% into his Original Qi. After refining all 30% Spirit pills, the Original Qi in his Qi Container doubled.
“I only opened three Meridians, so the speed of the Genuine Qi transformation was still too slow, that 70% was gone. If a warrior was Earth Level, he could transform all Spirit Pills from Energy Pills into Original Qi without wastage.”
"Forget over! As long as I can make rapid progress with my cultivation, spending more silver coins is precious. Based on the potential of the Energy Pill, I can fill my Qi Container with Original Qi with just four more pills.”
Fortunately, Leiva now had a lot of silver coins and did not have to worry about money. Otherwise, he would not be willing to buy even one Energy Pill with 1,000 silver coins. Instead of taking the second Energy Pill, he stopped his training and returned to his room in the internal space of the Space and Time Stone.
He had been training inside the Space and Time Stone for more than a day, but in the outside world, only half a day had passed.
