Chaotic Void Qi

The chaotic void qi can only be taken in by Dean by letting the devour skill temporarily be put in its highest state, the void qi was not something he can consume base on his strength at the moment, so pushing the devour skill to its limit was a must for him in order to complete the process.

The wind started converging outside the house of Dean, up above the roof of his temporary lodgings the clouds started to create a vortex and circulating above the sky. Inside the room where Dean was staying in, black and purple colored dust cloud.

The room was occupied by the flickering flames and chirping cries of lightning, a vortex circled inside the room and this vortex was getting inhaled by the big mouth of Dean who was seating there cross-legged. Inside his body a funnel like vortex was forming above the bead he formed with all of his heavenly qi.

The bead that was originally colored white was now beginning to become tainted with 2 colors, the black vajra was fierce and powerful making crackling noises as it wildly entered the bead the only that was keeping the black vajra from running wild inside of him was the primal chaotic flame that was wrapping itself around it.

The flickering flames of the primal chaotic flames was something to behold, the way the purple flame mix in with the black lightning was an epitome of harmonization. The vortex funnel was letting Dean absorb the chaos void energy and if not for the devour skill Dean would have not been able to even think of doing this.

The devour skill was something that let him eat anything under the heavens even the void was not an exemption, the qi of the void that can destroy everything was being absorb by Dean for 8 minutes and the dust cloud around him was still the as thick as before.

Noticing this point Dean knew that he had to increase the output that he was putting up on his devour skill, he clasped his two palms together and puff his chest and made inhaled even more dust cloud making the vortex spin faster and the dust cloud around was also beginning to thin out by a little.

[ Ding

1 minute left for host before the devour skill stop, please mind the penalty of using the highest output of the devour skill. ]

Hearing the system reminder Dean didn't stop taking in more and more of the chaotic void qi, he was getting hungrier by the minute and the more he took the tastier it got for him The taste of the qi was starting to appear on his tongue and it was making him feel hunger from it.

—What is this? — the sweet taste in his mouth begun to emerge, the qi that was previously bland and tasteless was now tasty and mouthwatering for him.

Dean started feeling hunger like his stomach was bottomless, he started letting his mouth and body take in more qi, the chaotic void qi was starting to seriously thin out. Then as his speed of eating this qi Dean heard usual sound.

[ Ding

Devour Skill stop: the penalty is about to start please mind the penalty. ]

Dean heard the announcement inside his head and realize his time was up, it was only ten minutes but he was already able to thin out the void that was around him, what remains of the chaotic void qi around him was about to dissipate.

"No, just a little more. The chaotic void qi is not that simple to collect, and that taste I want to savor it for a long time, and this limit is stopping me." Dean's voice was beginning to become rugged as he felt the fatigue assailing his body.

The devour skill was slowly returning to normal, and upon feeling this Dean's eyes turned red when he felt his hunger from his stomach, he started the devour technique once again making the dust cloud flow in him.

Dean forcefully use the highest point of the devouring skill, he didn't know how he did it and he didn't even know what he was doing at the moment. The vortex made out of qi was instantly sucked in by Dean, the output he just use was actually stronger than before.

The qi that was surrounding him disappeared entirely, his body fell over with a thud. Dean started to open and close his eyes, he felt his body was heavy making him unable to move it, he didn't know what clearly just happened.

He felt his hunger subsided and notice the qi around him was not around anymore, he close his mind and started checking inside his body, upon entering his body Dean saw the change that happened. He didn't even have to observe it he only have to take one look and he already knew that he succeeded in making the bead.

The gold and white color of his heavenly qi was already change into a mix of black and purple qi in the various streams that leads around his body, the flickering light of flames and crackling of lightning was constantly sounding out inside him.

Dean's mind went to his dantian and saw a black and purple bead floating there, the black and purple bead was rotating over and over, it was constantly directing the qi inside him letting it circulate all over his body.

Dean got closer to the bead and touched it, as he gave it a light touch a vibration happened. Dean smiled as he knew that he succeeded in making the bead not only was the "Void Bead" successfully created, the void bead was actually more powerful than he thought it would become.

Hearing the usual ding in hi Dean got the latest progression status, body refinement was something that everything and everyone start with so his progression on the 3 was the same, however someone who had not even started cultivating jumping 3 levels to become a 3rd level Body Refinement martial practitioner was something to happy about.

[ Host's body have been beaten up and needs to rest for 4 days to return to its optimal state. ]

"4 days? Didn't you say I was only going to be needing a rest for 2 days? Why did it suddenly go up?" Dean asks the system.

[ The host forcibly use the highest rate of the Devour skill when host is supposed to stop, because of this reason host needs an additional 2 days in order for him to return to his optimal state. ]

Dean didn't quite fully understand what the system was saying at first but after thinking what just happened earlier when the devour skill suddenly activated for a moment Dean was sure that it had something to do with that.

"System what happened to me back when the devour skill stop? I suddenly got hungry and my mind went blank for a second and after I realize it I was already using the devour skill once again, does this have something to do with the side effect of the devour skill that I was told about earlier?" he inquired.

[ Ding

Yes, the side effect of the devour skill is constant hunger when stimuli us applied to the host, and because of the taste host had when consuming the qi of chaos and void the hunger was activated yet again. ]

The System explained.

Listening to this explanation made Dean open his eyes to what was happening, the hunger he was feeling was supposed to make him lose some of his rationality when it activates and now he knew how bad it could get.

Overusing his body just to get what he wanted was not a good sign, if he were to suddenly have that happen to him in the future then he just might not be able to control himself. His strength was stronger now making it more dangerous than before when he didn't have any strength to boast about.

With that thought inside his head, Dean started to feel his eyelids was starting to get heavy, he closed his eyes and made his body lay flat to the ground and tried finding the best position for him to sleep.

After a while snores started to emerge from his room, with his body getting refined to the 3rd level him getting a job and getting his heavenly qi to become the chaotic void qi, Dean ended his first in this world.
