He removed all distracting thoughts from his mind as he focused on the matter at hand. He breathed in deeply to calm down and began trying to sense the qi in the Mystique Realm for absorption.
As his breath stabilized, all sounds stopped for him, he could not hear the voice of his mother or aunt, nor could he hear the rushing river.
He imagined the qi all around him, after trying for a few breaths of time he was able to feel qi flowing freely all around him like little stars.
He willed those to come towards him so he could absorb them in his dantian and awaken his potential. As the qi slowly began to move towards him, gathering above his head.
Yuan kept his focus on meditating while sitting cross-legged, some time passed, and at one point the qi formed a tornado above Yuan's head which kept growing in size.
When the qi tornado reached 1 meter mark Huo Rong commented, "Young Master's tornado is still increasing, most normal people have a meter long tornado at their awakening ceremony. Geniuses have 10-100 meters and Apex genius which are born once in a thousand years have 1000 meter long qi vortex."
Bing Rong interrupted her as she spoke, "I have also heard about scions of the top clans who can form 10km long qi vortexes but they are as rare as Phoenix feathers, it isn't every day that we can find them."
Shen Yuxin spoke after listening to their conversation, "The apex geniuses are rare only in the Eastern Desolate region, in the Central Desolate region there are many of such individuals or even the higher level Heaven's or Hell's chosen ones."
Both Huo Rong and Bing Rong's curiosity was piqued as Huo Rong asked, "How big can their qi vortex get at their peak?"
Shen Yuxin contemplated for a second as she replied' "The Heaven and Hell chosen ones can make anywhere from 100-1000km big qi vortex, it depends on their bloodline purity and the blessing they get from Heaven or Hell."
Bing Rong asked just then, "How big do you think Young Master Yuan's qi vortex will get?"
Huo Rong proudly replied back to her question which she deemed silly, "Is that even a question? Of course young master will make a 1000km big qi vortex, he isn't behind any of the Top geniuses who reside in the Central Desolate Region."
Yuxin slapped the back of Huo Rong's head as she spoke in an annoyed tone, "Don't speak of the matters that you don't know about, it isn't that easy to become the Heaven's or Hell's chosen ones, and I didn't see any signs of him being blessed by either of them in so many years that I live with him."
Bing Rong gave her sister a teasing smile as she asked her mistress in a somber tone, "Then mistress do you think he can only reach the level of Apex geniuses?"
To which Yuxin replied with a sweet and gentle smile, "I don't care what his talent is, all I care about is him, as long as he is healthy I will help him in cultivation so that he can live a long life comfortably."
Both Bing Rong and Huo Rong revealed sweet smiles as they heard their mistress speaking about how much she cared for her son.
As they finished their small talk Shen Yuan's Qi vortex increased in size from the measly 1 meter to 10 meter and was still rising steadily.
Shen Yuxin shared her thoughts as she looked at the Qi Vortex, "Now he is above geniuses as well, if he has a special physique and bloodline then they should get activated soon and increase the size of the Qi Vortex exponentially."
Huo Rong and Bing Rong nodded as they saw the vortex steadily rising.
Time passed as the Qi vortex surpassed the 1000m mark without showing any signs of slowing down or activating the physique or bloodline.
Huo Rong got confused looking at this situation as she asked her mistress for clarification,
"Why is the young master's bloodline or physique not getting activated even after all this time? And how is his qi vortex still rising without the help of his bloodline or physique?"
Shen Yuxin contemplated for a second as she spoke, "Other people's bloodline, physique, or special talent gets awakened during their awakening ritual in the initial stages because their potential can't keep expanding the qi vortex, but Yuan's potential is seemingly limitless, I think his bloodline and physique will be forcefully activated soon."
Huo Rong and Bing Rong looked at each other faces which were filled with surprise.
Huo Rong spoke after staring at her sister for a while, "Then we will wait for the young master to finish his awakening to see his final result."
As they continued to wait, the vortex continued to expand steadily, once it reached the height of 10km, it became as still as an ancient bell, and there was an eerie silence.
Huo Rong and Bing Rong got unsettled as they asked Shen Yuxin, "What is happening, Mistress? Why is it so eerily silent?"
Shen Yuxin silently looked at the still vortex for a few moments as she replied, "The bloodline or physique will be forcefully awakened next since his potential doesn't seem to be reaching his upper limits anytime soon. Let's see what level of physique or bloodline he will have."
Huo Rong quickly asked fearing that the physique or bloodline would be activated before she asked the question, "Mistress-"
Shen Yuxin interrupted her as she spoke, "You can just call me Big Sis, now Yuan is also growing up, he calls you both Aunts so it will be weird for you to address me as mistress and we have been together long enough for you both to call me Big Sis."
Huo Rong and Bing Rong looked shocked for a second there as they revealed sweet smiles while saying, "As you command Big Sis!"
Yuxin just shook her head slightly with a smile as she asked Huo Rong, "Alright, ask what you wanted to ask just now."
Huo Rong nodded her head as she asked, "Big Sis, what level of physique or bloodline do you think Yuan will unlock?"
Huo Rong decided to call Shen Yuan by his name from now on since he always asked them both to just call him by his name instead of calling him 'Young Master Yuan'.
Shen Yuxin contemplated for a second as she replied, "In our Desolate Continent, 90% of cultivators are born without a special physique or bloodline, from the remaining 10% of the cultivators, the majority of them open Mortal Physiques and Mortal Bloodline depending on the type it gives them various abilities and slight physical enhancement.
"Then most of the top geniuses have Earthly Physiques and the Earthly bloodline they inherited from their parents, they have the elemental advantage over Mortal Physiques as they have an affinity with basic elements like Fire, Water, Earth, Wood, Metal, Wind, Thunder, Poison, etc. The Earthly Bloodline also gives them more enhanced abilities or special powers."
"And finally the top rank on Desolate Continent is the Heavenly Rank, Heavenly Bloodlines and Heavenly Physique is said to be blessed by the Heavens themselves, the boost not only the physique of a cultivators but enhance the power of their techniques and their comprehension as well."
"Yuan Should be able to unlock at least Earthly Physique, as for his Bloodline, I'm not too sure about that myself since I don't know who his parents are or where he came from."
Bing Rong and Huo Rong looked at each other as they remembered the day when Shen Yuxin took back an unknown child, Both of them were so shocked when they learned that their mistress picked up an unknown child from the outside.
But over time they got used to his presence and now they are happy to to watch him grow up.
As they were about to continue their discussion, the vortex stirred above Shen Yuan, it started expanding crazily.
Winds stirred as the rivers raged, all things were being affected by the expansion of the vortex, and the ground was shaking as even the space began to break in some parts of the Mystique realm, but the laws and the power of the Heart of the Mystique Realm stabilized it.
The Whole Realm stirred as the shadow of the Celestial Symbol of Yin-Yang appeared behind Shen Yuan, his Qi Vortex reached 100km of height in a second as soon as the shadow materialized behing him.
As the symbol started to become clearer, his Qi Vortex began expanding rapidly, from the initial 100km, it reached the height of 1,000km when the symbol fully stabilized.
Bing Rong and Huo Rong held their breaths through the process as they finally heaved their bathed breaths and spoke their thoughts aloud, "Is it finally over? Is Yuan at the level of Heaven or Hell's chosen ones?"
Before Yuxin could reply the Yin-Yang symbol started spinning as it released a blinding brilliance which forced Yuxin to use her powers to stabilize the realm.
As Yuxin spoke after stabilizing the Realm, "Doesn't look like it's over just yet."
The Qi Vortex began expanding at a rate which was deemed impossible by even the strongest entity in the Desolate Continent, it expanded to 10,000km in a few breaths of time, showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
Seeing this Bing Rong and Huo Rong were absolutely shocked to see a Qi Vortex of such a magnitude as they couldn't even say anything, just as it looked like the Vortex was about to expand again Bing Rongasked Shen Yuxin,
"What do you think about this Big Sis? How is Yuan breaking the limits by so much? And even after reaching the height of 10,000km, it doesn't look like it is going to stop anytime soon."
Yuxin replied to the queries which were in the mind of both Bing Rong and Huo Rong,
"There are rumors about the next tier of physique above the Heavenly Physique, but there are no records about it even in the Central Desolate. There are only a few legends here and there in text or ancient scriptures."
Huo Rong asked at this point, "Then do you know the name of the next tier of physique, Big Sis? I have never even heard the rumors of the tier above the Heavenly Physique in the Eastern Desolate Region."
Speaking up to here she turned her head and looked towards her sister as she asked her, "Have you ever heard anything about the tier above Heavenly Physique grade?"
To which Bing Rong shook her head as she said, "I have never heard anything about the tier above Heavenly Physique since even the Heavenly Physique is merely a legend in this region."
Yuxin replied to the questions of the two sisters, "It's not your fault that you haven't heard about it, even in the Central Desolate only the peak tier powerhouses knows about it or the Ancient Monsters who are living for who knows how long, oh and that Old Immortal who have been living for longer than most legacies in the Central Desolate."
Leave some comments and tell me how it is fellas
Huo Rong tilted her head as she asked, "Old Immortal? Who-"
Yuxin interrupted her as she said, "Don't talk about him, he might notice it and we don't want him here when Yuan is going through his awakening ritual."
Huo Rong covered her mouth with her hands as she looked left and right for any intruders in their Mystique Realm, Yuxin laughed softly looking at her reaction as she spoke,
"Don't worry I have already sealed this realm so it won't be that easy for him to notice us."
Huo Rong finally heaved a sigh of relief as she said, "Phew, you really scared me there Big Sis. I didn't know what you are not suppose to mention these entities from the Central Desolate."
Bing Rong giggled after looking at her sister's reaction as she asked Shen Yuxin, "Big Sis, How does Yuan's Qi Vortex keep on expanding? Does he have the legendary physique which is stated to be above the Heavenly Tier?"
Yuxin thought for a second as she replied, "I'm not sure but it's very likely that he has the physique which is above the Heavenly Physique.
Even while they were talking the Qi Vortex was expanding at a rapid rate, nearly reaching 100,000km in height.
Bing Ruo looked at the massive vortex and asked in a slightly nervous voice, "Big Sis, should we move back a little? The vortex might start affecting us if we stay too close."
Before Yuxin could reply, Huo Rong mocked Bing Rong as she said, "Ara~ What is this? Are you scared already?"
Bing Rong looked annoyed at her sister as she replied, "I'm just worried about Young Master's safety, we might affect his awakening ritual if we are too close to him"
When Huo Rong heard her reasoning she was speechless as she said, "Ahem, I didn't think about that"
Bing Ruo pointed at her head as she spoke, "Do you even have anything in your brain? Or does everything you eat keep on going in this unnecessary mass of fat?"
She smacked her boobs as she finished speaking, Huo Rong jerked back as she screamed, "Ahh~ Don't hit me there you damn sister!"
Before their quarrel got anymore bigger Yuxin interrupted her after enjoying the short show, "Alright that's enough, Bing Rong is right, we should move back a little now."
She waved her hand as she took herself and both the sisters while both sisters closed their eyes just before reaching a few million km back from their initial position.
Huo Rong and Bing Rong opened their eyes to see that the Qi Vortex was at 99,900 km range, nearly reaching 100,000km.
Huo Rong said, "It will reach the 100,000km mark any time now if it keeps expanding at this ra-"
Before she finished speaking the Qi Vortex reached the 100,000km mark and released a Dao Hum that put pressure on the whole Mystique Realm.
Even Bing Rong and Huo Rong were feeling the pressure as Bing Rong spoke, "Is this the feeling that a 100,000km big Qi Vortex gives during an Awakening Ritual? Just looking at it makes me want to bow down. Almost like it's the birth of a Saint."
Huo Rong agreed with her sister as she chimed in while nodding, "That's true, just looking at the Qi Vortex really wants to make me bow down in respect."
Yuxin answered their queries, "I don't know anymore if this is due to the physique or merely because the one undergoing the awakening ritual is Yuan. This feeling is even more intense than the time I meet with The Saint in Central Desolate Region."
Huo Rong spoke without thinking, "The Sain-"
Just then Bing Rong spanked her ass as Huo Rong released a startled, "Ahh~"
While Bing Rong continued saying, "Big Sis already told you to not talk about those who you should not"
Huo Rong rubbed her ass as she sulkingly replied, "How am I supposed to know who you are supposed to talk and who you are not supposed to talk?"
Just as Bing Rong readied her hand for another smack, Yuxin interrupted them both as she said, "Alright enough messing around, You both should not talk about the figures in the Central Desolate with Yuan just yet, and neither should the both of you talk about them anywhere."
Both sisters agreed while nodding. As they finished talking the Qi Vortex already surpassed the 500,000km mark without showing any halting for even a bit.
Bing Rong spoke, "Is it just me, or has the expansion speed increased instead of decreasing? And the pressure is steadily increasing little by little as well?"
No one replied to her as they both were focusing on the Qi Vortex.
Which was still expanding nearing 800,000km, the pressure gradually began increasing in the Mystique Realm as the space which was as firm as a monolith began cracking again.
Yuxin's brows furrowed at the sight of the Mystique Realm as she considered her options, after considering what she should do in her mind instantly she decided to send him layers into other Mystique Realms.
"Looks like I need to send him inside other Mystique Realms and stack a few of them on top of each other so the commotion doesn't go outside of this place, I can't imagine what absolute destruction it would be in the outside world if Yuan'er was going through his awakening in Eastern Desolate."
She pulled out 8 globes of light from her spatial ring, "These should be enough to withstand his awakening, after all with these 9 combined it will reach a whole new tier."
She swung her hand and the 8 Orbs of light merged with the Heart of the Mystique Realm, seeing this Huo Rong asked Shen Yuxin, "What are these orbs of light Big Sis?"
Bing Rong also looked over curiously to see what these orbs of light were, who were about to fuse with the Heart of the Mystique Realm.
Shen Yuxin replied to the queries of both sisters as she said, "These Orbs of light are Hearts of the Mystique realms, they can create such Mystique Realms independently, but since I fused them they will be a lot stronger than a single Mystique Realm Even I can not destroy this now."
Huo Rong tilted her head as she asked, "Can they withstand the eruption of Qi from his awakening now?"
Shen Yuxin replied with confidence, "Of course they can, because even if they can't do it I have set up a formation inside these Hearts of the Mystique Realm and connected them with outside the Continent, so all excess power will be poured outside and it won't burden the Mystique Realm at all."
Huo Rong and Bing Rong revealed surprised expressions as Bing Ruo spoke with a voice filled with admiration, "Woah, Big Sis, you are really considerate of Yuan to use a treasure of such a level for him."
Yuxin smiled gently at the sisters as she raised her hand while saying, "Let me send Yuan to the Heart of all the Mystique Realms, the concentration of qi is also on a whole another level over there.'
As she waved her hand Yuan was teleported to the Heart of all Mystique realms. The Qi Vortex was still above his head as its expansion speed increased with a better environment.
It reached 990,000km in height rapidly. Just as it hit the 1,000,000 km mark, it released ferocious pressure in its surroundings but this time it didn't make any waves in the Mystique Realm space.
It continued expanding,
1,000,000 km
1,100,000 km
1,300,000 km
1,700,000 km
1,900,000 km
2,500,000 km
3,200,000 km
4,600,000 km
5,800,000 km
7,300,000 km
8,700,000 km
9,990,000 km
As it nearly reached 10,000,000 km in height, both Bing Rong and Huo Rong closed their mouths in shock at the absurdity of the situation.
Just as they were about to speak something else, the Vortex expanded again and reached 10,000,000 km in height.
With this achievement it released an Ancient aura as it released a heavy sense of viscosity of life, as if everything is meaningless in its presence, only it reigns Supreme in this whole world, exuding a sense of timeless power and supreme authority.
Huo Rong and Bing Rong looked horrified as the pressure which was exuding from the manifestation was affecting reality as the pressure upon them was enough to bend their knees.
Bing Rong spoke with difficulty, "Big Sis, what is this power? It seems to hold supreme authority wherever it goes, even though all those 9 Mystique Realms combine and through countless dimensions away that power is still affecting us."
Shen Yuxin was still standing tall looking as if there was not any pressure on her. Looking at their condition she spoke, "You guys should withstand this pressure it is good to consolidate your foundation. As for this power, even I'm not sure anymore what this is."
As she was about to continue analyzing the current situation some more, the qi vortex began expanding at an ever more rapid rate than before.
10,000,000 km
12,000,000 km
15,000,000 km
20,000,000 km
25,000,000 km
30,000,000 km
35,000,000 km
40,000,000 km
50,000,000 km
As the Qi Vortex reached 50,000,000 km in size the pressure became much more heavier on all surroundings, so much so that it began sending shockwaves and pressure outside the Mystique Realm with the use of those formations.
Huo Rong and Bing Rong, who had just adapted to the previous pressure nearly kneeled down as the pressure on them increased all of a sudden, Huo Rong gritted her teeth as she spoke,
"Why the hell is this Qi Tornado still increasing? I don't even know how big it is anymore."
Yuxin replied to her rambling, "It has passed the 50,000,000 mark and is still increasing."
Before she even finished speaking the Qi Vortex reached a height of 60,000,000 km as it continued expanding.
75,000,000 km
85,000,000 km
90,000,000 km
As it reached the 90,000,000 km mark Yuxin spoke to both sisters, brace yourself for the next impact"
Just as she finished speaking the Qi Vortex shook and reached an unparalleled height of 100,000,000 km.
As the Qi Vortex reached the unparalleled height of 100,000,000 km, it released a blinding radiance towering above the heavens. The Qi Vortex seemed to encompass all things inside it with its sheer magnitude.
Both Huo Rong and Bing Rong kneeled on the ground due to the sheer pressure the Qi Vortex was releasing, even Shen Yuxin was having trouble standing straight in that pressure.
Even Shen Yuxin's knees were bending a little due to the pressure from the vortex.
Suddenly, the Yin-Yang symbol behind Yuan started to glow with an otherworldly radiance. blinding even the eyes of the two sisters and Shen Yuxin, all three of them closed their eyes on instinct as if something bad would happen if they dared to see what was happening in front of them.
But this feeling left as soon as it came, maybe because of the close karmic ties between Shen Yuan and the three of them.
As they looked at the Yin-Yang symbol, the symbol began to rotate, each rotation raising the pressure on both the sisters and Shen Yuxin
The sheer force of this energy sends rippling waves in all directions. The emergence of the Dao Symbol made even the laws of mystique realms tremble.
An aura of ancient timelessness was being released from Shen Yu, affecting the surroundings, and making them feel insignificant in his presence.
With a final rotation, the Yin-Yang wheel released a blinding radiance as the physique of Yuan was revealed in all of its glory.
The physique was unlike anything any of them had seen or heard of, it was indescribable with their mortal knowledge and language.
The Qi Vortex now imbued with Primordial powers of the Physique began releasing such a tremendous amount of qi all around that even the 9 Hearts of the Mystique Realm were finding it difficult to control.
All of a sudden, time seemed to still as a Transcendent power began to fill the entire Mystique Realm.
