Chapter 1 -
The State of Chaohu is a big region. The springtime weather was neither cold nor scorching hot. Light winds caressed the land, passing the mountains of the Northern Reaches, blowing over the lands of the Great Chaohu.
Under the clear sky inside a house in a small mountaintop a young man looking down in the valley through the windows.
A lean young man wearing a leather jacket and pants and holding a bottle gourd. He appeared to be about fourteen or fifteen. He was not tall, and his skin was somewhat brown and his eyes unable to contain is confusion. And yet, all his confusion seems to be hidden by the frown on his face.
He had wake up not long ago and not recognizing this unfamiliar place and the only this he remembers was going to his bed.
¡°What that F*** ¡¡± before he could finish memories flowed into his mind that seems to not belong him. This memory was messy.
....
This young man, his name his Meng Kuan, an average servant of River Path Sect. His mother unknown, his father missing and did not leave much but only a token. That was an admission token, his father told him that he used to be an outer disciple in the sect, it was given to him because of his huge contribution to sect when he decides to leave. This token allows one of his descendants to be accepted without to wait a 10-year period for an admission.
He had arrived about 2 years ago when has twelve, he had been given a Qi manual, a token and new accommodation. Because of the token he received 3 pill Qi and then given a basic explanation about to the sect servants affair and assigned to a job.
Not long after he had entered the sect he had been attacked and stabbed and his Pill Qi taken. This pill in the servant region it''s very expensive, one would work all his life and yet not have a way to buy it unless he/she came from a wealthy clan or family. Although some ups and downs, it at taken almost 2 years to arrive at the Mortal Qi late stage and then he waits some time for the outer disciple test to start.
Unlike the 10 years admission period the outer disciple test was held every 5 years. The test was pretty simple one had to be at Mortal Qi the lasted stage and break to the Qi Condensation stage, it is easy said than done it. It had its risk, one could break it''s Qi Vain that could make one unable to practice anymore rendering then waste or even die in the worst case. It is a hurdler for thus taking it, their turning point in life.
During the test he had sat down on the Qi Compressor Array not long after the array shone with a bright blue light creating a huge pressure in is Qi vein rushing to his dantian.
A Qi Compressor Array it''s used to amass Qi and force it inside the participant and then one should be used this Qi to broke their dantian barrier and create a Core Qi region in it. If one had a spirit root it would boost the success rate and if the spirit root has a higher tier one would be almost 100 per cent rate of breaking to Qi Condensation stage.
At the moment that a huge amount of Qi had rush to his dantian he starts to circulate the Qi in his dantian creating a thin wall around it forming a hollow sphere after the wall was done, he started filling it with qi slowly increasing the size of the Core QI.Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.
This was actually the complicated part after one creates the wall it becomes unstable, and if one doesn''t have a spirit root, its body could even start rejecting it. And in all this one had to fill it Core Qi a full time.
Some moment later when the Core QI had formed around its dantian he had arrived at one of the last steps and the more dangerous that is to press against the dantian wall to rip it and to fuse it with the Core Qi and use his spirit root to make the fusion more stable.
After doing all this he had practically passed the hard part and just need to circulate Qi in his new Core Qi to stabilize it. [ BEEP, RES...] Right about where he was finishing the last cycle, he heard a voice ring in his mind distracting him a lit bit losing the control of the Qi that burst out through is entire body even open his old wound and e blackout.
...
"My head really hurts¡." he sighs this is too much life history and experience to be recalled. Then he grew silent for a while letting his head cool down.
"Dreaming? what ...? why...? how...?" Question flowed his mind, but no answers to it.
"Sigh..." looking at his surroundings and this new memory it indicates that is true, it is happing. He waits for a little so his mood could soothe down and gain some insight into his surroundings.
After a while, he starts analyzing this new environment, first this a world of Cultivation where one pursuit the immortality and power with his rules driven by strength and if you had none you would be like someone servant or some kind of fertilizer and a then question came to his mind ''how did I die?'', recalling the blurred vision and the insane heat that he had felt.
"Knock, knock..."There''s a knock on the door. This interrupted Meng Kuan thoughts making him look frightening at the door. For him, everything was unknowns and potentially deadly, at this moment everything seems to be tossed out and his vigilance rises to the top.
'' Who could it be '' frowning and reorganizing his thought not minding any of the incidents for now.
" Yes," he said with a little voice when he had opened the door with little expression of fear that was mask by his pale face looking at the little chubby man around 1,66-1,69m that seems around 24-26 years.
" Junior Brother I came to take you to the Administration Hall," said while showing a little anger by the way he had been received at the door.
Seem the chubby displacement the Meng Kuan start to hurry up searching his mind.
"Senior Brother thank you for time " After realizing why the chubby had shown his discontent with his. He starts to try acting more like his memory even taking a lite bow to show so respect. Them he concluded that people in this world take respect to another level.
"Heh heh... junior brother doesn''t need to be so stifled, you can call me Han Zong, " said Han Zong with a light smile as he had seen a complete respectful replay from his junior Brother and thought that he might that way because he still suffering from the injury.
Seeing a little smiley in his face e replay yet more respectful " Thank you senior Zong you can call me... Meng Kuan " he made a little pause recalling is new identity.
"Ok junior Kuan I''m here to take you to complete your outer disciple registration" this time Han Zong said with a more friendly voice has he see Meng Kuan pale face.
" And I hope that your injury is better after what during outer disciple test," said Han Zong recalling.
" Thank you again senior Zong, this junior is feeling a little better... and what happens during outer disciple test? " This last part picked Meng Kuan interest as this event was very refreshed in his mind, and might be related to him.
" Oh, junior doesn¡ät remember. Ok this is what happened..." said Han Zong recalling what he heard about this outer disciple test.
During the outer disciple test, one of disciple Core Qi seems to go out of control causing ripples of Qi to affect other disciples causing a cascade effect. And because of it, some disciple failed to form their Core Qi, some ended with an injury like Meng Kuan and was said that one even died.
Chapter 2
After the little chat they decent the small mountain walking in direction the Administration Hall guided by the chubby man, in the way he had met others disciple and talked a bit more with Han Zong telling him about his test ceremony that he was fortunate after he passed out an elder immediately shot to take him out of the Qi Compressor Array and sent to treat. Afterwards telling him how the sect work, some basic common sense of the outer region of the River Path Sect and showing him place has they passed through.After walking for a while they arrived to a plaza where there is crowed with disciple a there''s the Administration Hall that surpass any mansion or presidential building of is passed world.
Inside the was huge that are a lot of disciple but wet it seen like with had a few people, approaching the reception Han Zong take what seems to be a token and delivered to the receptionist reporting his affair, after a while came a man in a red robe that indicating that he is an elder he look to be in his 50 year our so.When the elder look to Meng Kuan his body stiff, his heart rapidly beaten he feel like an ant facing a mountain only helpless staring and wait for his verdict.¡°This Junior grate the elder ¡± After seeing the elder he rapidly salute in the most respectful way that he dint even know it was possibly.
After a breeze moment the elder retract his gaze and take a token and handed him saying " Take this token and put some of your blood in it to banding it" he respectfully take the toke and drip some blood in it the token give a little shine, after the elder seen that he turn and walk away without saying nothing more. After seeing the elder leave he felt a little relive from the pressure of the elder presence.
After all this was done the chubby man take him out of the Administration Hall to the Outer Core Palace that was the most frequent the one could receive assignment, select task trade resource with the sect, buy spiritual treasure, array formation,talisman or pill.Getting to the Outer Core Palace he almost lose his breath that would put the Administration Hall to the level of a hut and elevate the Outer Core Palace to a temple level, upon entering it, one¡¯s eye would be dazzled with brilliant lights, there¡¯s has a huge hall with 3 big gate written Medicine Palace on the gate to the right, Treasure Palace on the gate to the left and the central written Core Region.Han Zong take in direct to the Core Region explain a little to the other to area, when Meng Kuan enter the Core Region what has a huge circular hall with that seems to be divide in diverse sector .Han Zong take him direct to one of the balcony and handed his totem to the reception explain something, them Meng Kuan was asked for is token, some moment later the receptionist handed him a little bag, 3 stones and manual.
¡° Junior Brother If you wish to dine in the Culinary Department, you will have to pay 1 spirit stone¡± said the receptionist with a tired face.
¡°Junior Brother is better you pay for it, although is not required, you could go to outer region of the Beast Forest to hunt but with your condition is very danger¡±Seem the Meng Kuan taking a while to respond he explained him. Meng Kuan after hearing he decide to pay.
¡°Junior brother take and bind it your blood¡± them he was handed a gray jade explaining ¡±with this jade you can accumulate contribution point that can be used to tread inside the sect ¡± afterwards he give him a plain sheet with information of his new resident and whit that he concluded is outer court disciple join processYou might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
After getting out of the Core Palace the chubby explain some stuff to him a lit more and departed with in a little hurry.
He walked along the green paths of the Outer Sect, using the information from the on the sheet to guide him to his new home. Around dusk, he found his house. It was along the east border, in a very remote section of the Outer Sect with several other houses crowded around it.
He pushed the door open, and it slammed against the wall. Inside were a bed and a desk. Meng Kuan stood there, feeling quite tiered. This place was much worse than the room he had weak up.
He sat down cross-legged on the bed, took a deep breath and looked at the manual that he had received from the Core Palace. He studied it carefully, until the sun began to set over. He lit an oil lamp and recalling the first content of the manual that talked about the sect rule, basically inside the sect region there¡¯s heave punishment to ones who disregard the sect rules like espouse sect content to outsider. And there is a bit of information to cultivation, there¡¯s stages and shackles.In the stages first there¡¯s the Mortal Qi stage where one could only circulate Qi in his vein and its divide in 3 minor stages the first stage the medium and the late stage and after one had broken to the first shackle the Shackle of Qi where one produce its own Qi and accumulate heaven and Earth Qi so he could advance to immortality. The next stages is Qi Condensation where one could direct its Qi outside of his body and its divide into several layer and then there¡¯s the Foundation Establishment where the basic requirement is 10 layer before one could attempt to reach it.
When the night grew deep, Meng Kuan put the manual to the side and looked out the window at the two moons.The bright moon shone outside, its rays touching the eaves of his window. Everything was silent he took a deep breath, thinking about the his past life.After a while felling his body tired he decide to rest.He murmured to himself: ¡°The path is Unknown and obscured but my only destination is the top¡± and fell asleep.
The next morning Meng Kuan wake up to filling more lived that before and is face was not so pale compared with face when he ha yesterday. He sat cross-legged on the bed and gathered his thoughts. He first decide to experience the sensation the Qi, although he ha memory about it but hi was a new world for him, so he closed his eyes, and sat in meditation, circulating the thread of spiritual energy in his body according with his memory, his body suddenly vibrated, and he felt a prickling numbness in his limbs. Then, it seemed as if tiny wisp of invisible Qi condensed within his blood vein, he opened his eyes excitedly. After a while in meditation emerge in this feeling he felt a strike of hunger hit him, so he decide to stop for a while to eat.
A day, two days, four days. Meng Kuan felling ability rapidly grew until he could freely move his Qi around his body. But, most of his time spent familiarize with his new-found memory, this new world and trying to understand the so-called spiritual energy our Qi. Decide to Complete the first step of Qi Condensation Stage so he could officially step in the immortal world.
¡°Condense the Qi into the vein redirect it to you dantian, fuse with your Core Qi until it resonate with heaven and earth.¡±his hand hold the Qi Condensation Manual, which he studied intently. He closed his eyes for the time it takes an incense stick to burn (around 15 min or so ), sensing the delicate strand of stream Qi within his dantian( or Core QI) . Using the circulation technique described in the manual, he sat in meditation, allowing the Qi to move around his body and then to his Core Qi.
Several days passed. He had familiarize with his Core Qi the Qi circulation technique. One afternoon, Meng Kuan sat cross-legged on the bad holding a bag in his hand. He murmured to him self ¡® Apparently this his a space bag¡¯ looking at it and remember out it work and its used. One just need to insert his qi in it will show the item in your mind and if you circulate an item with your qi and connect your bag with would be sucked in our out if the item is inside the bag, it could only hold something with spiritual energy or very tough material, other wise it would turn down to dust and not life could survive there. He then put his qi inside an image form in his mind showing only 2 stone inside. This is a spiritual stone, concentrate his qi around it disappeared, retracting his qi of the bag he see a stone landed inside his hand. Before he could appreciate it the stone start to shrink in a visible speed rushing into his body all to his mind. Them he heard a mechanical voice in his mind.
[Beep! Host mind extremely unstable. Host it is recommended to rest!]
Chapter 3
¡°What?¡± Meng Kuan eyes widened when he heard the mechanical voice in his mind.
¡®Isn¡¯t this the my A.I. Chip assistant? This doesn¡¯t make sense! How did it ...¡¯ Before he could finish is though a screen pop up in from of him, almost making his eyes want to pop up and roll on floor.
Looking at the screen his eyes was filled whit confusion, his mind blanked as if unable to process what he was witness. After a while he start to calm down and decide to see if he was not dreaming.
He found it hard to believe. After calming down he thought to himself, ¡®A.I. Chip, display your status and locate the assistive systems.¡¯ but nothing happen, he frown thinking why is there no answer ¡® I¡¯m going crazy¡¯.After bounder a bit he decide to circulate the Qi in is body and passing through his mind and thought to himself again, ¡®A.I. Chip, display your status and locate the assistive systems.¡¯
After a mere moment, the A.I. Chip¡¯s mechanical voice replied, [Beep! System Status: Active ! Could not pinpoint the main part location.]
¡°Hmm, scan my body, and display its stats.¡± His question was met with another mechanical sound.
[Beep! Scan complete. Lin Carller(Meng Kuan).Status: Wounded at the lower part of the belly!]
A 3D hologram appeared before Meng Kuan eyes. ¡® Could not pinpoint the main part location? The A.I. Chip is equivalent to a material computer of the size of a grain of rice. How did it follow me through ?¡¯ he thought to himself, ¡®It seems like something to do whit my dead abnormality or my reincarnation¡¯ think about his mysterious dead he felt a little frustrated, ¡® Somehow the A.I. Chip¡¯s main core to fuse with my soul¡¡¯ for now he his more focused in the A.I. Chip.
This kind of A.I. Chip was essential to his work in the previous life, he used to be an Engineer in his previous world.Because of of some technology limitation and mostly size problem, this A.I. Chip is only a fraction of fraction of the A.I Core, that was a Super A.I used in his department. Because of issues with human rights and the conscious thought, the A.I technology didn¡¯t have any intelligence of its own, serving whit the primary functions of analysis.
It would analyze problem and data, gathering data samples and running simulations to make deductions and it would store its result, although it dint¡¯ have a big store capacity.
The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
¡°But why did the A.I. Chip my soul fuse together¡ ¡° I will ponder later when i gather a better grasp of this world, then he shift his mind to another topic, the Game System. In his previous there¡¯s was Virtual Reality Game to and it was pretty advance, first this technology appeared it was used to treat mentally ill patients and when there¡¯s was a break through in the A.I technology it gave a complete boost to it progress. This Game he was playing before is mysterious dead was a game called Obscurus. This game was a fantasy game it was said when it was create its developer just fed a bunch of mystically fantasy to 7 Super I.A core and 2 years later they got a world that would rivaled any person imagination and it but it game system was practically a bitch and after almost every player complain, so they decide to change it in two mode, the first was like a easy mode and the other the insane mode, in the easy mode practically the game start easy and then i would get harder, but the top mode it would start insanely hard and then get almost impossible to progress later, the difference is that a insane mode could rival thus at the same level in the easy mode, and this two mode player almost never meet up because of the world that it was constantly been generate and the area separating the two region was even difficult for the tops insane mode player. The reason he was recalling this is because he had choose the insane mode when he first started playing this game.
¡®Chip start a new current Project and name it GSystem and record all data starting from now ¡¯.
[Beep! Project started! Start recording data ]
Easing is mind he then concentrate, then a screen in his field of vision.

After seeing this the corners of his mouth suddenly lifted to form a brilliant smile. He knew that there¡¯s a way to the top, possessing an A.I Chip and a System Game would definitely open up some extraordinary roads for the future.
Meng Kuan started analyses the screen, although is complete deferment from is previous world, he thinks that the System somehow had change adapt to this new environment. Seeing this change in the screen compared with is previous world e decide to try understand it better.
First he start whit Obscure Energy he though that it work like the game, it can be use to improve anything in the stats, skill, Cultivation technique and even equipment, the only problem is that just absurdly huge. The Constitution he thinks is like the in the game where one it represent strength is body residency to poison and it body constitution.The vitality represent is body condition and the rate he could accumulate the obscure energy.
The spiritual energy is probably represent his Qi and how much he have, not seeing any recuperation rate he assume that its relate with his vitality. The Spiritual root it show his grade and it probably affect the Qi regeneration too but still is not sure how it real affect him.
Chapter 4
After doing some basic analysis he start to test how this new Game System work for him.First he start by commanding Chip to analyzing what amount of OE (Obscure Energy) is necessary for which updates stats, then after a while pop up a screen in is vision field.

¡°Whit my natural accumulation rate of OE this gone take million of year a least to update all, without count the Chip Cost¡±After seeing how many OE is necessary to update it he start to feel a lit depressed.
At The night after several test whit Chip and the GSystem. Meng Kuan sat cross-legged whit the space bag in is hand, ¡®Chip Analyze the space bag¡¯ then he order chip to analyze it.
[Beep! Start Analyzing ]
[Beep! Danger! Danger! Detect a attometre size black hole]
[Beep! Recommend Host to get away ]
After hearing this alert he grew pale, is impulsing his telling him to threw away but he try to calm down. At this if some one see in they would say that he had his mount so wide open that they could put a Goliath Frog inside. That is because of the information that he had receive from analyzing is space bag.After a moment he start to calming, then he assume that it would not cause any danger because he already test it once.But if he knew that are people that had died because of the space bag, but the sect just cover up the incident he would be very caution to get close at least.
Then he enter in deep though, lot of question was emerging every second. He had read a paper about black hole that had been create in laboratory but never mention any form of space storage. This is complete a new realm of reality for him.He could image a infinite realm of technology...
But then e calm down think while looking around, then is face frown ¡® Whit all this why this world seem still in a mixture of western and eastern medieval period ¡¯ then he recall his memory, in this world knowledge of cultivation is pretty controlled you would have to join a sect, a clan our be extreme luck to taken as disciple by some practitioner or some god luck to find a cultivation technique or treasure. Then he assume that when a person start to practice the would only be concerned to create some thing that gave then advantage regarding other and the kind of technology that it used it take time resource.
He stop himself from further analysis because it would not get any answer without appropriate tool and resource to understand it.He proceeded to see the so called contribution jade he could see nine little bar whit nine traces around each one of the bars, he speculate that this need to be fill to represent the number of contribution, then he decide to try to put some qi inside.The qi seems to circulate around the bars inside the jade but it stop as if find some barrier, getting stuck here deciding to ordering the Chip to analyze it.
[Beep! Find a Complex pattern around the jade]
¡®So it kind of security key ¡¯he had expect something like that, then order ¡®Chip try to decipher the pattern¡¯ thinking that he would not have any problem whit contribution if he could add contribution points at is wish.
[Beep! Task established. Time estimate 30 year 22h:13min]
¡°Sure it would not be that easy through¡± After seem the time he grew a lit sad, ¡°It like a credit card.¡±
¡± If i could update the chip it would be great¡±.
Five days passed. One afternoon, Meng Kuan sat cross-legged in meditation, when he heard the Chip voice he immediately opened his eyes.
[Beep! Analyze Complete.]
[Would take host around 1 year and 6 month to get to second layer. For further layer need more data ]
[Beep! When practicing the OE accumulation increases to 0.003]
¡°Not so good and not bad too¡±Then he get depressed calculating how many time would take to get to 4 layer so he could get the next part of cultivation. He had heard from the little chubby that some people with a very low grade spiritual root would take from 3~4 year in the worst case to get to second layer and someone that would be called a genius and gift by the heavens would take around 1 month at most.The spiritual root grade represent the layer that one would have no problem, so he calculate that till the 3 layer he don''t need to worry to get there he just need time.
He had asked a lot complicate question about cultivation, sometimes the chubby would say he could answer or give him question would let him dissatisfied like when he asked what determine the one person spiritual root the chubby answer ¡°one spiritual root is determine by the heavens¡± the he look a the chubby whit a eyes of disbelieve.
Meng Kuan had form a lot of assumption but he could not confirm any.He heard to from chubby to that when the better cultivation base one had one would receive a better treatment and resource from the sect, so he see himself whit only option of cultivation.
After several day passed he didn''t need to circulate his qi so he could communicate with Chip he assume that his soul had now complete integrate whit his new body. He speculate too that the system his somehow connect to his soul because the Chip could not found anything in his body too. And the Chip could not access it directly so it could not try to hack it our do more detailed analysis
After a moment e relax is body and command Chip to add EO to advance to next layer.
[Start monitoring host body. Adding EO to Advance to Second Layer]
At this moment he feel that he complete lost control of his body and then he feel energy coming from deep with in is soul. He could not pinpoint where it was coming so he assume it was from his soul. This energy start to circulate around his body passing for every cell of his body then descend into his dantian and start circulate around his Core Qi region with a notable speed forming more one layer around its Core Qi.Reading on this site?

The most notable difference between layer is that your body become a better recipient for storing Qi and the affect that it had on your body.
¡®Chip calculate how much time it need to next stage¡¯
[Beep! Analyze Complete. Would take host around 4 year and 9 month to get to 3 layer. ]
He was think to save his OE to the 4 layer if he had some problem getting there.But he decide to used because he came to conclusion that the faster he get out of the bottom the better and as Outer Sect disciple he could select a assignment to do like in the servant region but any job here require at least second layer of Qi condensation like taking care of spiritual plant help breed spiritual animal, be servant of an elder and many others.That is way he choose to use is OE to advance this time
So he decide to go pick a task a the Outer Core Palace. In his way he see a scene that are not so uncommon in this Outer sect region. He heard a miserable scream he saw an Outer Sect disciple on the ground, being stamped upon over by another. Blood oozed from a wound in his chest, but he wasn¡¯t dead, just wounded. The person who had been kicking him grabbed his space bag , then walked off like if he just get out for a walk.
The trampled disciple Stayed there unconscious . Surrounding onlookers stared at him their faces filled with ridicule.
Meng Kuan observed silently. He had watched similar scenes played out several times in the past few days, and as he grew an understanding of the ways of the Outer Sect. Although the sect rule prohibit such action but they just ignore it.
Because he didn''t wish that for him he had grow more taciturn and thankfully, he has still new around here and no one had target him yet.

¡°Did you decide what you gonna pick?¡± said Han Zong
¡°Not yet Brother ¡± hearing the Meng Kuan answer the Han Zong drew a smile and said ¡° Not worry brother a got a perfect job for you...¡± pausing a lit bit Han Zong look around and take in to the corner of the road ¡° Although is a little difficult in the beginning but once you get used to it you will not have a problem¡±
¡°What its brother¡± hearing the chubby luring him he asked while putting a curious face.
¡°Heh heh...¡± seeing the curios face of the laugh ¡±This task his one of the very disputed. His the spiritual insect breeder¡± Han Zong said and wait for the Meng Kuan reaction.
¡°What you do in this task brother?¡±said Meng Kuan while maintaining his curios face.
¡° This task you need to breed some Spiritual incest whit your Qi. Although it his difficult you could at least meet the minimum monthly cote... And the best part is that the failed incest could be eaten and it could help cultivate¡± pausing and let Meng Kuan process it first.
¡°Oh¡± Meng Kuan did this time a genuine surprised face, he didn''t expect that a simple insect could do that. He felt that he still not open his mind to this new World.
¡°Heh heh... Brother you really a luck today, i just receive a task token from the elder Hoa it was supposed to take it to the Assignment area at the Core Palace but i just found you ,so do you accept it ¡± Han Zong said while taking out a token.
¡°But i don''t need to go to the Core Palace to get a assignment ?¡±
¡°Not really. They don''t really kip registry of outer disciple assignment so it doesn''t really matter if you get a assignment from a elder or a senior disciple, as long you put your blood it done, and recently i just take a errant job from the Assignment region at the Core Palace ¡± hearing the Meng Kuan preoccupation he answer calmly and wait for his answer.
¡°Thank you brother i don''t know how could i repay you for your kindness¡± replay Meng Kuan after think bit.
¡°Don¡¯t mention it, i just hope that brother would remember me when you get some failed insect¡± Han Zong put a innocent smile this time.
¡°Ok no problem brother¡± Meng Kuan said while smelling, he would find strange if there isn''t any benefice for him.
After hearing the answer Han Zong gave him the the token and he drip a little blood in it, then the token give a little chine as he absorb the blood. He thing if that ever thing in this world need a drop of blood to confirm, he would die of blood loss.
Seeing the process done Han Zong guided him to the Insect Pavilion. Getting there Han Zong stop a the entrance and said ¡° Brother we arrived you just need to show your token a the entrance and you would enter without any problem¡± after saying that he departed.
Getting at the entrance he asked to show is token and insert it Qi inside it. After doing what he was told the token gave a little bright green light, seeing the green little he was told he could enter.
Getting inside he see a huge space with lot of cabins like office and the wall are complete filled whit what seems to be box.
¡°You are new here¡± Heard a calm voice coming from his right, turning to the sound direction he see an Elder in a red rob with a golden pattern on it and his face was placid and emitted a calm, natural power and dignity.
¡°Junior disciple Greet elder¡± he rapidly gave a bow to match is words.
¡°I see that you are new here, take this and pick a cabin¡± said the elder not caring much about his compliment while taking a book and whit the wave off his hand a box flew from a wall next to him landed in his hand.
His face was unable to contain his amazed but he still maintain a respectfully manner as he take the book and the box.
¡°each week you should deliver a 100 successful hatch spiritual insect if you fail for 3 times you would be fired...¡±pausing a bit as if decide Meng Kuan fate he said ¡° As this is your first time and your cultivation is low this week you could get me just 20¡±.
¡°Thank you Senior Elder for your kindness¡± the elder just nodded is head and closed his eyes.
Meng Kuan look around for a free cabin, he noticed that there¡¯s around 287 cabin around and most of then are occupied and as he passed looking for one that there¡¯s free e could see that most of disciple inside are concentrating in their affairs.
After founding a free cabin he sat and put the box and the book on the table. He open the book and ordered the chip to record as he read it. Basically the book talk about how to regulate your Qi and put it inside the insect egg in a specified pattern.
[Beep! Content stored. Start simulation]
[Beep! Simulation concluded]
[Beep! Start gathering data ]
Hearing the Chip voice he then open the box in front of him. Inside there¡¯s the around 78 insect egg that resemble a white marble ball, he then take it and analyze it for a while.He start to insert Qi like it was said in the book, when is Qi touch the insect egg it seems to gain a little more color, then he start to perform the pattern whit his Qi inside the egg, but the the egg start to break apart. Seen this he sigh ¡°it seems it not that easy¡± then he smile and take another agg from the box ¡®Chip start hatch experiment had learn that he Chip could control his Qi freely.
[Beep! Hatch experiment started]
He felt his Qi Circulating in his but like if it had his how life and direct to the egg in his hand.
He could see the color change again, but this time the egg just explode in his hand.
[Beep! Analyzing. Result: Energy output to high]
[Beep! Regulating energy output]
Meng Kuan take another egg and repeat the process again. After starting this time the egg didn¡¯t explode and he could feel some thing like life forming inside the egg then this feeling suddenly vanish.
[Beep! Analyzing. Result: Energy output to low. Regulating energy output]
He started again and happen the same as last time
[Beep! Analyzing. Result: Energy output need to be adjust accordingly . Regulating energy output]
Around his fourth trial he take a break to recuperate his Qi and start again, this same pattern repeat dozen of times.
[Beep! Hatch experiment 47 started]
This time the life forming inside the egg and keep growing and showing no sinal of fade, he could see that there¡¯s a break int it shell, after he see a small larva insect head point out of the shell but then he could see the larva shrink and dying.
Then he heard a familiar ring in his mind
He was surprised after seeing this screen pop up, he find it strange because some one in the insane mode could not gather EO point in the game by killing then he start doing some experiment
First he did the same thing that last time and sure there was a pop up again
Then he decide to try to hatch on the table instead of his hand and still when the larva died it would added some OE.
After a plenty of test he came the conclusion take when it died he would have to be closed if he wanted to gain some EO point, so he concluded that if any thing died around him we could receive some EO, he just need to confirm if this dying sacred benefactor creature had to posses some kind of Qi energy.
At the end he didn¡¯t successful hatch any insect larva but gained 0.027 and around 30 dead larva body so he was feeling quite pleased whit himself. So when he was heading to out he bow at the elder and direct himself to the exit.
After passing the elder, he open one of his eyes looking at the Meng Kuan direction, but like if instantly he close his eye backing to his normal posture.
