A Divine Soul Oath

After about 2 weeks of training, KJ gathered everyone at the table. "Before we continue with our training I would like to have a plan. I'll be leaving to begin my secluded training soon so I won't be able to continuously train you guys. Here Raiju I've listed out the next steps to train in the Flying Raijin."

Raiju looked at the different drawings and diagrams. "These seem to be different types of unorthodox poses and they also seem to follow..... they seem to follow the trend of me having to hold that position for extended amounts of time."

KJ: Yes, as you train you will also begin to condition your muscles and develop them more thoroughly. Over time you will get used to the positions and you will be able to hold them for longer periods of time. In the future, holding these positions for days on end would be commonplace. Remember there is no perfection, only progression. When you go out and fight in the tournament I want you to use your Oceanic Army's sword technique. To actually be able to effectively use Flying Raijin you must already be in the Spirit Connection Realm. At this time we are just prepping your body to withstand the force of the technique. There should be absolutely no one who can beat you among the under 30 crowds. So it shouldn't matter which technique you use. Kabal if you are in the finals against Raiju I would like you to put on a good show. However, I think you should let Raiju win even if you are stronger than him which would be very unlikely. But if the possibility does arise I would want him to win. It would boost his reputation in the Endless Abyss and promote cultivation to the youth. It will doubly affect those who look up to him. He will inevitably be a pillar of The Endless Abyss. Even though our main stronghold will not be stationed here... it will at least be one of our bases of operation

KJ: Now about Kabal's training. I will teach Raiju how to target your body correctly so your blood doesn't leak. With this technique, we have to focus on one thing at a time. I will teach you Raiju so don't stress. When you are beating Kabal I want you to use your Army sword technique so you aren't rusty with it before the tournament

KJ: That was a lot to say. Now let's go to the courtyard so we can put all our planning to work

Once again.... BANG AWH CRACK AWWWW BOOM UGHHHHH

Raiju was also standing over a pool of his own sweat.

KJ: I'll make sure that you guys won't miss me too much while I'm gone

.........................

After all the training they finally went back inside to rest. KJ sat in a lotus position on top of his bed. He swam deep into his consciousness and located the Ancestral Golden Dragon.

The once proud and mighty Golden Dragon was now bound in chains. It didn't struggle, it knew that its efforts would be futile.

Golden Dragon: Why have you called upon me

The Dragon's voice was very deep and heavy, it was clearly exhausted.

KJ: I have two options for you. You already know that you have no possible way to escape these chains... The first choice is to remain in these chains and I will take my time prying the information out of you. I can easily take it but if you make it difficult I won't hesitate to resort to torture

The Dragon snuffed air out of its golden nose in annoyance. "I know of what I can and cannot do. What is the other option?"

KJ: How about I give you what I want and you pledge your loyalty to me?

Dragon: HAHAHA and what is it that I would want from you? I know you have secrets but you're not strong enough

KJ: You're completely right. I'm not strong enough, yet. I also do have many secrets and my knowledge is much greater than yours. I know of the 8th realm, something that should be impossible. I need you to have some faith. You can either sit here in a futile effort or you can have faith that I will grow and reach the 6th realm. Once I reach the 6th realm I will be able to create a physical body for you

Dragon: How can you trust me... how do you know I won't betray you?

KJ: Don't take me for a fool. I have planned for this event far before I met you. You will take an oath on your divine soul.

The Dragon's bright eyes flashed in horror. "You really are an old monster. How do you know of that oath, this was only for the Gods."
