Chapter 6 - Awakening

A joyful gaze appeared in the monkey's eyes when he heard Bai Feng's request. He grinned widely from ear to ear and said

"Of course I will help you but for a certain price"

'What price' asked Bai Feng

"You must let me accompany you on your journey within your Niwan. And probably only you can become my vessel as your bloodline will give you the strength to withstand a powerful existence like myself" proclaimed the monkey king

"What do you mean my niwan" questioned Bai Feng

Sun Wukong thought for a moment and replied "Your niwan means one's soul palace. Its located in the deepest part of your brain and it acts like the link between your actual soul and your body. In fact, the place we are currently in is your niwan. I forcefully unlocked it"

Bai Feng became astounded and looked around the area as he thought all along they were in a separate dimension or had teleported to a different plane.

"I agree to your terms" said Bai Feng as he realised that having a powerful knowledgeable existence like the monkey king with him would be beneficial for him also he got to have his bloodline awaken.

"Seems that not only is your body compatible but you are wise, oh I almost forgot, it seems that while you were asleep for 100 years, you mortals managed to cultivate a different sort of energy specifically for the soul palace, once we get out of here you should investigate it, but for now let's start with awakening your bloodline" said Sun Wukong

He walked over to Bai Feng and with a flick of his hands Bai Feng's white top vanished and to the right of his abdomen was an unusual mark the size of the palm.

The mark looked like seven dragon heads intertwined with each other to form a circle. And in the middle of the seven dragons was a massive black dot.

Bai Feng was alarmed by this as he had never seen that mark before in this life or the previous.

The monkey looked unconcerned as if had expected it.

He walked over to Bai Feng and placed two fingers on two dragons and used his other hand to do the same.

His four fingers both started to glow a bright glow to the point where Bai Feng had to use all his willpower to keep his eye open. Before he knew it an immense pain started to sprout from his stomach, he let out a shout filled with pure pain. His intestines felt as if they were burning and his veins felt like exploding as if an immense amount of pressure was cast upon them.

The monkey slowly turned his golden fingers in a rotation touching each one of the dragon heads, with every turn Bai Feng body was undertaking immense pain, but with every turn the heads became brighter and brighter and started to take a certain colour.

But then suddenly the immense pain began to dissipate and was replaced by a soothing feeling. Within the centre of Bai Feng's, seven multi-coloured streams of energy suddenly burst out from the mark and circulated around his entire body. His near destroyed veins immediately healed and he could feel that his entire body was evolving

Sun Wukong suddenly removed his fingers from the rotating process and concentrated all of the golden light onto his index finger, he raised it up in the air and then pressed it forward onto the black mark in the middle of the mark. As soon as that happened seven bright lights as thick as trees suddenly flew out of Bai Feng's body and into the air.

As soon as they were in the air they began to take the shape of seven dragons all with different colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. The seven dragons all roared, and as soon as they did, the entire place seemed to shake and tremble as if in fear.

The dragons then flew towards each other and merged to form a bright light. When the bright light vanished a dark shadow that took the shape of a massive dragon head, hung in the skies with multi-coloured eyes but this only lasted for a moment before it dispersed into the seven original lights and flew back into Bai Feng's body.

The Monkey sighed in reminiscence, 'I will never get tired of seeing the shadow of one the great dragon gods'

Meanwhile, as the red monkey stood in a daze of the previously alluring sight of the dragon, he didn't realize that Bai Feng's entire body was floating in the air as the seven streams of light circulated around his body in different directions for each light. But even more mysterious things were occurring within Bai Feng's body.

Within Bai Feng's body the seven dragon streams of energy were circulating around every single corner of his body including his third leg.

He could feel his every one of his muscles bulge and contract, which increased his strength exponentially.

His dark brown eyes started flickering as it turned into a light crimson red. The most noticeable thing however, was the change in his hair. His previously dark as night hair had changed colours and was now a light red colour. He seemed to also grow a bit taller and now he looked like a 16-18-year-old when he was just 14 years

"Absolutely incredible" exclaimed Bai Feng he had never felt so better in his life, and his now crimson eyes allowed him to see things most people couldn't see. He could see up to 2 km and he could even change his perspective to a bird's eye view which was a miraculous.

Before he felt like he could break a tree with a single slap but now he felt like he could completely obliterate 20 trees with just a single push of a palm.

However, his evolution hadn't stopped yet as now the seven streams of energy stopped circulating his body and arrived at his abdomen, before Bai Feng could react all the mana energy within his body started being sucked into the centre of his abdomen by the seven streams. The energy within his body condensed into a sphere the size of two palms. The sphere started to thin out between and illusionary form and a solid form before settling into a rotating sphere.

While the sphere was rotating Bai Feng could feel all the energy from his surroundings enter his body into the sphere which seemed to be as deep an ocean. Every time the sphere seemed to be full it would bugle and increase in size by an unnoticeable margin, this happened 6 times before it stopped

Bai Feng stood in shock as he inspected his body, he could feel that he had around broken into the earthen realm and was even at the sixth stage. And he came to a realization that the sphere as his dantian, but the strange thing was that his dantian was rotating which was not meant to be as most dantian did not even budge, but Bai Feng didn't find anything wrong with that as it increased his absorption speed by a ten fold

Bai Feng inspected his body and looked at how much mana he had, he was shocked to see that he had possessed large amounts of mana, which far surpassed the amount that normal Rank 6 Earthen cultivators should posses.

Bai Feng grinned from ear to ear when he found this out as it meant that the amount of mana within his body was equal to that of a Rank 2 Demi Lord and his physical attributes could be compared to one of a low level Demi lords rank as well. This meant that he could face a Demi lord even though he was a Rank 6 Earthen!

Suddenly Bai Feng's body started to fade and he exited his niwan and before he knew he was back in the cave which had lost its red glimmer. All that was left was the pot which the red pearl was within.

Just before he was about to shout out sun Wukong name, a familiar voice echoed from within his niwan

'Don't worry kid, I am residing in your niwan for the moment as its straining for me to condense within the physical world for a long time, and I really recommend that you quickly prioritize learning how to use the mental energy you mortals discovered, all I can do is teach you but you require an actual mentor to start becoming a Saint '

Bai Feng had a puzzled expression as he asked 'Saint's ? what are they?!'
