Kapitel 3: Understanding Martial Arts

"Let's get started."

Shiva sat down cross-legged, like he read in the novels, and started to concentrate to peep into his own mind. After some time he came across what he was looking for; The "Absolute Transcendence Arts".

The absolute transcendence arts is something that took some of the best and strongest arts and combined them together into one art.

He pushed his mind a bit more and appeared inside of the manual. Shiva began looking around and inspecting everything to make sure not to accidentally suffer some bullshit setbacks and ruin his future prospects.

After an unknown amount of time Shiva's mind returned to a calm state and he opened his eyes.

There was a complex look in his eyes that one couldn't identify even if they tried. 'Woah! So that's Martial Arts, but, why does it seem like I can comprehend these techniques like they were already in my head?' He looked at the ground and kept thinking about it.

'Never mind that, let's just organize the order of the books and begin comprehending them.' Thought Shiva

72 hours pass and Shiva once again opens his eyes and begins speaking "That's Interesting, so Martial arts cultivation is the process of improving health, increasing longevity, and growing powerful. Apparently, this is accomplished by cultivating Qi and training in martial & mystical arts. Usually, the ultimate goal of cultivation is to become an Immortal or attain godhood."

While this may sound like an easy task, like just practicing martial arts and gaining Ki, there are actually 9 Martial Realms, and there are 9 levels in each realm. The higher one cultivates the harder it will be to continue forward on the path of cultivation.

Shiva continues "It's time I begin choosing and combining a few cultivation arts for me to set my foundation, lets begin"

Shiva began scrolling through techniques like 'Devouring Technique' 'Asura Sutra' 'Firmament Body Tempering Art' and so on.

This is a yellow class, but it could become a tao class technique. But one have to keep devouring in order to achieve that. Not everyone can learn it, only the Body Born of all Creation. The body born of all of creation can absorb everything. If someone without this special physique tried to "Devouring Technique" they wouldn't be able to tame the devouring power. They would be incompatible, and the person would implode and die. The Body Born of all Creation is much stronger than an ordinary body, so it is best suited to train by using "Devouring Technique". Unless they were able to create a powerful body that's able to contain the "Devouring" in the body.

One is able to learn any and all cultivation techniques through this Qi method.

The Asura Sutra is a cultivation technique that focuses on practicing the three main source essences. It is a cultivation method focusing on the outer cultivation; or communing with the Heavenly Dao. But the true purpose of the Sutra was meant to cultivate an avatar or incarnation to ultimately fuse them with one's own being. The result being that you become truly divine, exuding the pressure of the Heavenly Dao and stand on par with it!

This technique allows one to see and feel divine energies with their body, mind, and soul.

Firmament Body Tempering Art, Inferior Grade Heaven Ranked Body Tempering Cultivation Technique. One's Physical strength has to be at 150,000 kilograms of force before it can be cultivated.

The Firmament Body Tempering Art was a Body Tempering Cultivation Technique from a mysterious sect in the ancient era.

According to legend, the first three level of this technique easily achieve at least 10,000 kilograms of force with one punch. As for middle realms, one could achieve at least 150,000 kilograms of force.

After 4 weeks of reading, comprehending, and merging techniques, he made the "Yggdrasil 33 Realms Art".

The "Yggdrasil 33 Realms Art" is a multitude of cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques. There are 33 levels to this technique. As he continues with his cultivation, the more powerful and destructive the techniques were.

He wanted to try it out but he was dead tired, given that he is technically 5 years old, so his body can't keep up with his minds fast pace reading. So Shiva decided to take a rest and try out the "Yggdrasil 33 Realms Art" the next morning.

Next Day

As Shiva was just waking up, he heard his stomach growl, he doesn't know how long It has been hurting but he needs to feed himself fast.

He got up and went out of the cave and began hunting for some food. Preferably a rabbit or a snake. Shiva begins hunting and soon spots a white rabbit at the side of a wide tree.

'It seems like that rabbit is a mother and it just came back from gathering food for its babies. But I'm hungry, so I'll have to kill and eat you, I'm Sorry'.

Shiva got into position and got ready to pounce on the rabbit. He remember that his body is enhanced for his age so he should be able to catch a rabbit. Soon, Shiva leapt out of the bushes and surprised the mother rabbit, then began the chase.

The rabbit didn't want to die, so it kept evading Shiva's hand, until Shiva picked up a palm sized rock and threw it with all the strength his little body had to offer and nailed the rabbits head. Shiva walked up to the rabbit and grabbed the neck, then snapped it to make sure it's completely dead.

Shiva went back to the rabbit's nest and directly killed the baby rabbits and brought them back to his cave to cook them.

As Shiva was walking back he began thinking 'Once I'm done eating, I have to begin practicing the "Yggdrasil 33 Realms Art" to unblock my meridian's by tomorrow morning.'

Shiva made it back to his cave and started to dig a pit and sharpen rocks he found in the cave to skin and gut the rabbit. Soon Shiva finished skinning the rabbits and started a hand made fire. As Shiva began eating it was already night fall and he needed to start his practice, finishing up his meal and dumping the remains in the pit he made earlier.

He went to the back of the cave where there was a flat stone there for meditating, Shiva thought that someone must have cultivated here in the pasts, hence the meditative stone.

Shiva soon began reading the description of the first technique, it is called "Clear Meridian Physique". Essentially, this technique opens, fixes, widens and clears the meridians in the body to better circulate and cleanse the energy in the body, without any bottlenecks regarding the meridian's and opening the Great 8 Meridians and the 12 Major connecting meridian's in the body.

Meaning that in the future, when he reaches the meridian opening realm, he just needs to circulate his energy the right way to breakthrough.

Sitting in a meditative pose, Shiva began to feel his Qi, 'This untamed and calm energy is my Qi? No way! In the novels, Qi is always clear and without any color because the owner of the Qi needs to pick an attribute that he will study and comprehend, in turn affects the Qi color, but why is there so little of it?' And why is it green and purple?

For example, if someone choose to go down the Buddhist path, their Qi will be a golden color, or if someone goes down the demonic path, their Qi will be a blood red color because of the arts they cultivate.

'But why is my Qi purple and Green. I know that having two different Qi's in the same vessel will result in the vessel going into Qi Deviation and them exploding, because two different Qi's can't mix unless the vessel has a specific art to merge the two opposing sides into one. Let's think, I have a boundless body and can use purple and green Qi...'

'Is this Primal Qi and Nature Qi!? It has to be. This will be awesome, cultivating two different Ki's. One is the most untamed and dangerous energy there is and the other is the most calm and nurturing energy that can assist in blending together.

It's no wonder that in the novels, they stress for Yin and Yang to be in harmony, because if they aren't, the balance of things will tip to one side and the other will lose out in the balance scale and fall off, and the energies in the body will implode on its self and go boom!'
