Chương 26: Living hell, Flashback 03

"[ Celestial hammer] is a martial art technique both for the mind and will power. It is said when you reach full mastery of this martial art, any army force or mountain will turn in to dust if received it full force.

"Without a strong mind you won't be able to handle the stress it puts on your body.

"Without speed and accuracy, you won't reach your foe"

"Without the control, your enemy's will control your life and death.

Obviously, all of this is a lie Alex, how could mortals create something like that and especially in the true mortal realm where no Qi exists or any other super natural energy."

"Still things will change if I modify it a-bit and if you're a cultivator, with their superior strengthen body and qi they can handle it fine up to a certain point." "What is most important though is how much qi their Dantian can hold."

"Lucky and unlucky for you Alex as I previous mention your body is completely different from any other life form, this even include the being the one above all."

"Let's begin with the lucky part."

"As far as I can tell I can't see any end to how much energy can be stored in your body and you don't have a Dantian" "The last part might sound bad until I further explain"

"What you have ... hmm"

What followed was a long pause...

"It's kind of hard to explain due to your limited knowledge at this point, so I will try to simplify it a bit and what I will explain won't really be correct, however you might understand how it works"

"First off, all your blood cells, yes every single blood cells you have works like dantians" "they store the raw energy I mention before until you will it too transform too what you need "

"The down side to it is kind of obvious... every explanation how to guide or even use qi won't apply to you" "Every single cultivation book or manual in the universe will not work for you"

" You need therefor to learn, everything about how your body works, learn how to convert your type of raw energy to other forms of energy and of course how to use the new energy inside and outside your body."

"I do know how this might be achievable, although I won't help you, some things need to be figured out on your own. ""as helping to much will rather cause harm then good"

Alex responded quickly again to that reminder

"I do think this is for the best as well Asura, I have seen and experienced myself what happens when you help someone to much."

"Good! Still, I will go over how the cultivation manual works and a few things more the rest on this subject is up to you"

Asura gave a coughing sound to sound as to clear the vocal cords…

"There are many kinds of energies in the universe on of them is qi. It's formed from a certain by-product when matter is born under the right conditions ""Qi will then be absorbed either by share will or subconsciously by life forms" "it will then gather in their elixir field, some call this Dantian" "The Dantian may look different for some life forms ""from there Qi will be pushed out to the body in special developments nerves, veins and muscle tissue." "Some of these are called qi veins" "Doing this will allow muscle to strengthen, reflexes to be enhanced, eye sight to increase and so on "

"The first thing that one need to do is strengthen their entire body before inviting ki in" "as i stated before ki is a form of energy and letting it pass through the body when the body is weak will destroy the ki nerve and paths. Worse case scenario is letting it take paths that it isn't supposed to take, that will damage the entire region the mistake took place. By damage I mean complete annihilation of bone, nerves, muscle and blood vessels and so on." This is still the best out come and the worst will be every single biomaterial in the effective zone will become a bomb "

"This will lead to something referred to Qi divination. ""In short it completely explodes the person's body from the inside"

"[ Celestial Hammer] tells you specifically what muscle, veins to strengthen and of course it also tells you how to guide your Qi whilst in combat"

After hearing that she stopped talking, Alex decided to think a lot for a while. He read many novels before that stated that the cultivators had a thing called inner vision to help with these numerous issues.

Inner vision allowed people to explore their body like a scanner to observer anything from blood flow, tissue damage, tissue strength and ki flow.

They were made-up stories though. Still, he was willing to give it a try. He started with the obvious… he looked for his pulse by putting his fingers on his neck, sadly he ended up disappointed. He had no pulse, with this revelation he figured out he had no heart anymore or at least nothing close to what was consider normal heart. Again, this made him slightly nervous as everything was alien to him... He tried many other methods and all ended up in failure then, all of a sudden, a frightening idea popped up.

"What if…"

He checked out his theory and he was right and from that point on he managed to learn the most basic part of how his body moved his energy around…
