Cultivating Qi

As Han inquired more about cultivation with old man Jian, he realized that there were many methods to grow strong. There are many different training systems that one can follow in order to grow strong.

People in the Xuanyu World mainly cultivate 2 different types of energy.

The first type is known as Qi , while the second is commonly known as Mana.

Sects were known to promote Qi Cultivation and people who reside in such Sects were commonly termed as Qi Cultivators.

They absorb Qi into their bodies, accumulate it to a certain extent and then refine it into their own, becoming the source of their power. Connecting with the Heavens and Earth to gain enlightenment to progress into the next cultivation state.

There are 6 cultivation states and levels in the Xuanyu world. They are the ---

Qi refining stage

Foundation Building Stage

Core Creation Stage

Nascent Soul Stage

Void Stage

Ascendant stage

Each stage consist of 10 levels each, and after one reach the Ascendant stage, they will go to a higher world to proceed to improve themselves. However, the Xuanyu world is only a lower world.

Meanwhile the Mana system that some others train with isn't as complicated. It only requires the person to accumulate Mana and train with it, somehow similar to Qi cultivating, but one training with Mana don't need to connect with heaven and earth, suffering from terrifying tribulations when attempting to cross to the next stage, allowing them to progress at a much quicker pace then Qi cultivators, but Mana cultivators are usually weaker as such.

Hmm... There are boons and banes for using these 2 systems...

But using Qi to cultivate sounds like it will do me good in the long run. And I don't really have the option to use Mana to train with since I'm in a sect either...

Han weighed the advantages and disadvantages of the 2 training systems in his mind, initially, he wanted to train with both systems. But after old man Jian knew his thoughts, he brought Han away to lecture for a whole day.

Han despaired at the thought of having to go through another lecture with old man Jian, he talked more then a woman.

Training both at the same time might sound enticing, but it is not a smart choice in reality.

It is like being fed food by 2 person at the same time, the initial phase might be easy and one might be stronger then the others at first, but as time goes by. The amount of food being fed by 2 person at once will be too much to handle, before even trying to swallow and digest it, you might even choke to death first.

Brrrrr.....

Han shivered at the thought of self imploding and decided to put the thought on hold.

Let me cultivate using Qi first, we can think about the rest as time passes.

A week flew by quickly.

HA! HA! HA! HA!

There was a small figure punching and sparring relentlessly with the dummies on the training yard, as the dummies had a combat function, it allowed disciples to spar with dummies if they do not have someone else to spar with.

Huu...

Han breathed out a breath of putrid air. This feeling was awesome!

He could feel tiny streams of Qi circulating and revolving around his whole body, throughout the main 108 meridians situated in his body.

He had decided to train his physical body through sparring with the dummies, thinking back about his stats when he first saw them, and looking at them again after training for a week with the "Steel Bone Body". He felt so happy as though he was about to fly into the heavens!
