Day of the grand expedition

In the days that followed, Chen Tian dedicated himself to training both Aria and Emilia, focusing on their ability to sense and control Qi within their bodies. Despite their natural talents, it still took them a couple of days to gain even a basic level of control over their internal Qi. Chen Tian's patient guidance helped them understand the subtle currents of energy flowing through their meridians, enhancing their awareness and making their efforts more efficient.

During their sessions, Chen Tian emphasized breathing techniques, guiding them to draw Qi from the environment and cycle it through their bodies. Each inhale had to be steady, each exhale intentional, focusing on Qi circulation and absorption.

Slowly but surely, Aria and Emilia's control over Qi improved, and they began to use Qi in their attacks, even if only faintly. For them, this was the first step toward a long journey, and Chen Tian ensured they built a solid foundation.
