Chapitre 20: Bottleneck
"Finally home" Johnny sighed a relief opening the door of his floor. His body was full of bags.
"Brother, thank you for your gifts" Jessica who has also had some bags on her hands kissed her brother's cheeks and ran inside the home.
Johnny helpless sighed at Jessica. Today in the very morning, he was waked up by Jessica. Then he had to follow her into the shopping fortunately, he called Michal to show them around. They done shopping for the whole three hours burning more than twenty thousand dollars. Fortunately, now they know about their family so his dad gave them a lot of wealth.
After reaching home, he took a bath and went to his room. With a single thought, he entered Primal Chaos Celestial Dao Stone space. Within the pitch-black space, something starts emitting light brightening the whole room.
But except for two altars, there was nothing inside of it. Johnny took out the pouch filled with awakening medicine. For now, he puts five bottles in front of him. Then, he sat in a lotus position. He took out the first awakening medicine from the jade bottle to start the cultivation. In Junior Martial or Magician, realm everyone depends on medicine to cultivate.
In fact, most of the time everyone depends on the medicine to cultivate that's why rich people have dominated the world after all without cultivation medicine increasing cultivation is very hard.
After he swallowed the first medicine, energy burst near his chest area then he took another medicine without hesitation. Then, one after another only after emptying the first bottle he starts cultivation. He used his mind sense to control the energy inside his body.
With his mind sense, he began to cultivate without any sense of time. First, he didn't hurry to increase his cultivation by clearing the fourth meridian instead he used all that energy just to temper his current meridians.
According to Dark Energy Absorption Art, tempering meridians will have a greater effect while absorbing dark energy from nature in the future. Better the meridians, more energy will he be able to cultivate after all in the future increasing the size of inner space or mana space will increase the cultivation.
Of course, this is for someone above Martial Artist or Magician realm. There is also another effect of strong meridians. When one reached the realm above Junior Magician and Junior Martial Artist, they can open small meridians whose numbers are large compared to great meridians.
Cultivator connects their small meridians with great meridians. When they cultivate or fight they can use a large amount of dark energy before the transformation or after the transformation. Before the transformation, dark energy is very corrosive in nature but after transformation into spiritual energy or mana energy, their corrosiveness decreases but there will always be side effects so cultivators can't use the full power of mana energy or spiritual energy without small meridians.
So after they open small meridians, they can carry large amounts of mana energy or spiritual energy for a battle skill. They can be also used for cultivation, the more the number of small meridians faster their cultivation will be.
After tempering his meridians, they take another bottle of awakening medicine. This time he began to impact the next meridian which lies at the right arm. To open this meridian, he needs to transfer all energy created by the medicine into his right arm. Opening the meridian is a painful process but this kind of pain is nothing in front of Johnny.
With high control of medicine power, he began to impact the fourth meridian. Suddenly, he felt something different in this position. He began to sense the object in front of the fourth meridian which was a large door that could cover the whole meridian.
This was the bottleneck, and Johnny was completely aware of it. Then he mumbled, "A.I. scan the best way to break this bottleneck."
This is the A. I that it had been living in his soul from the moment of his birth. He doesn't know anything about its history but this A.I. is the reason for him to be the genius on all tasks. Johnny can ask it to memorize, create his current status, analyze anything, prepare the best solution for any task, and many more.
This A.I. is the reason for him to memorize everything in flash. Previously, A.I. scanned the whole book and transferred the necessary information of Shadow Steps and Dark Arrows. But he needs to depend on his own performance to reach perfection on this art though A.I. can provide the best way to reach perfection.
Suddenly, a tone sounded in his mind "Ding! A.I. has found the best way to break this bottleneck. Host needs to consume more medicine and let A.I. control the flow of energy. This is the shortest and best way."
"You can" Johnny agreed without hesitation, the main thing he had learned from his birth is his trust in A.I. as if he knows this A.I. is also the part of his soul though he hasn't confirmed it. Then with another thought in his mind, Johnny asked "By the way, I asked you to analyze Primal Chaos Celestial Dao Stone. How much have you analyzed it?"
"Ding! Total progress is forty percent. Now Host can use A.I. to hear those words of Primal Chaos Celestial Dao Stone spirit words. The host can also stimulate himself inside the Primal Chaos Celestial Stone space to learn battle art. The host can use A.I. to analyze the inheritances of the Primal Chaos Celestial Stone. There is no potential danger from the Primal Chaos Celestial Stone."
With the A.I. confirmation, Johnny sighed in relief. Normally his conversation is blocked by A.I. so that others including the black stone spirit won't hear it.
Then Johnny puts another bottle of medicine in his mouth all at once. Fortunately, he let A.I. control this energy. Naturally, A.I. is using his soul power to control this energy, now Johnny can't do it. If he can cultivate in a higher realm he surely can do it.
The energy in his body was surging like an ocean tide. Suddenly, a burst of energy strikes against the fourth meridian. This strike was so powerful even breaking the bones near the fourth meridian. Fortunately, A.I. was controlling the energy so well that made his body able to stand against that strike's pressure.
"Bang"
"Bang"
One after another strike, his body was full of sweat. He was also full of pain in areas like his right arm bones and muscles. He was barely able to hold himself but this progress still hasn't finished up yet. Then he consumed another bottle of medicine because he felt A.I. was not only clearing his fourth meridian but also tempering his own body.
This is more than a normal tempering because his strength wasn't increasing but his vitality was rising. Vitality is the life force of a person. Increasing vitality means increasing the lifespan but there is something more to it.
Increasing vitality also increases the potential of a person. He could feel A.I. was using soul power and mix it with medicine energy to temper his body. This was more than normal tempering since it includes soul power.
Soul power is a rare type of energy. According to the A.I, it can be used for various methods and it is effective as same as in all those methods. Cultivating soul power is the hardest thing to do since it requires treasure with soul energy.
After learning about ten thousand races, Johnny found the only handful of races that could cultivate it. So according to A.I.'s advice, he should get genes that can increase his soul power like Nine-Headed Nightmare Hydra.
Since the spirit is the manifestation of the soul, in other words, the increasing spirit is the same as the increasing soul though it might get a little problem if his soul power didn't get balance with his body. Balance here means the difference between the level of soul and body shouldn't be very high.
A.I was currently handling two jobs at the same time without any decrease in inefficiency.
"Crack" "Crack" "Crack"
Finally seeing the hope, after the appearance of cracks Johnny shouted "Fourth Meridian breaks"
His mind sense cooperates with A.I. control, giving the final push of energy at the fourth meridian.
"Bang"
