Xiao took deep breaths as he calmed down he's beating heart, the technique he has was about to use was dangerous and crazy!, in truth due to the book Heavenly Opposers he had gotten a sneak-peek into several techniques that can be used before the construction of the Qi path
He had thought long and hard about the path that he should take, in the end, he chose the technique of the Zerkain family that is attached to the shrine of death in the fourth Heaven, their technique is deadly and it dances on the edges of death
But the return they get for it is tremendous but there's a difference in what Xiao's going to do, he's using the same method to take a crazier path! this was something he had thought about and he had made up his mind after he found out about his second chance since this was his second chance why not go all out?
Seeing that he had calmed down, Xiao closed his eyes as he focused on the dense QI that surrounded him, it's been a long time since he felt the familiar Qi that made paved a path that fought against the inevitable
The first thing that one must do after feeling the Qi is to take it inside one's body, opening the premature meridians that have yet to taste the delight of Qi, one must open the 32 paths of the meridian that leads to his martial core
Normally in the lower heavens, the elders guide this path but it causes one to lose the chance to create a faster pathway by borrowing strength, of course, the plus side is safety and no pain, one must first open their meridians then their core, and lastly one must adapt the body to its strength
But Xiao's going to do the opposite, he would first open his core! it was a suicidal move, since how would one open the core without the pathway for it? and that's the technique the Zerkain's used
Xiao didn't wait any longer as he gathers Qi into his body and just as he did, he moved quickly and pressed several areas of his body sealing his meridians!, now his body has Qi inside it but the meridians were like a sealed dam that refused to break
Slowly his body started to bloat like a balloon and at the same time indescribable pain-filled Xiao's body, blocking one's meridian is not child's play and the pain that comes with it even more, now he has meridian that was bloating up
The pain would be the same as if when suddenly someone felt as if they were forcefully expanding your veins and vessels the pain would be unimaginable, no wonder the ones of the Zerkain family were labeled as crazy, they would be if they went through such a pain in such a young age
But to Xiao this was nothing, to him who had to use 'those', methods to reach the third heaven in his first life, this was child's play, the Qi within his body started to act berserk as they didn't have a path to go forward, his internals started to bleed as blood started to leak from his head
But even at this time Xiao was calm, he focused on inside his body as a new meridian path was created for the Qi to flow!, that's right the secret technique of the Zerkain family lets them have an extra meridian, it's just like having an extra energy storage
A smile came on the bloodied Xiao face as he saw the new creation of meridian, he could see it moving towards his martial core which was there beside his Spiritual core, pain that is enough to make an experienced cultivator cry in pain racked his body but Xiao just kept calm
Soon the new meridian was connected to his martial core, causing all the gathered Qi in his body to rush towards it they were like a jammed group that was trying their best to reach their destination, the use of such method was not just to create a new meridian it was also to increase the size of his core and his meridians, raising his talents a notch
Soon they reached his core as they started to fill it up, the ones that were gathered in the core were spread towards the broken meridian's trying to break the block from all angles, this is where the meridians should be open, so that the process should be complete but Xiao didn't stop there, he wanted to use this momentum to open his mind realm!
The opening and cultivation of one's mind realm is something that only happens when one reaches a terrifying cultivation realm but Xiao wanted to do it now!, he didn't hesitate anymore, as his core and meridian kept being hit he used his third skill [Mind Split]!
It simply raises the capacity of his mind to an inhuman level allowing him to see everything in slow motion and work his brain beyond anything anybody could imagine, with that he used his soul energy to attack the mind realm that was blocking him
A thud was heard across the room as Xiao fell backward with his eyes rolled up, if anybody saw him now they would think that he was a retard, right now he was fighting a duel battle one with his body and the other with his mind
Loud thumping sounds could be heard from his body, the earlier bloating that was coming down after the new meridian created retuned in a higher force, now he looked like an over floated balloon
If Xiao had attempted this without his skill [Mind Split], he would have died no doubt but thanks to his superior mental ability at the moment he was able to survive and take on a battle, with time his core started cracking while the new and the old meridians worked beyond their limit
It was then his soul energy that was supplying his skill came forward and started affecting his body and the formation that surrounded the room, a quake surrounded the room as an intense amount of pure primordial Qi formed, in swirled and formed a single drop that flew into Xiao's body
Soon the quaking of the room and Xiao's body stopped, the primordial Qi that flew inside his body started covering him in a cocoon of Qi, a cocoon surrounded him for the second time if Xiao could see it he would definitely laugh out in happiness
His gamble had paid off, he had fooled the heaven!
