Chaotic Asura - Chapter 76 Wuhen
Meera “Young master, Xue WuHen came looking for you a few times.”
Jiang Chen “Hmm. Let her in next time she comes?”
Meera “She is waiting outside.”
Jiang Chen “Then what are you waiting for? Let her in.”
WuHen “Brother Jiang, I need your guidance.” she asked cutely.
Jiang Chen “Sure. Is your sister busy?”
WuHen “She is trying to learn her secret techniques. I came to meet you, I need to ask you something.”
Jiang Chen “Sure, sit down. We will speak.”
He then turned to Meera and asked her to provide some food and snacks for WuHen.
Jiang Chen “Are you expecting a breakthrough to Martial Disciple realm?”
WuHen was surprised hearing this.
Jiang Chen “It was just a wild guess. I can understand what you are going through, I will explain to you whatever I understand.”
Jiang Chen “If I am not wrong, you and your sister cultivate using heavenly strands as a medium without using pills. Correct?”
WuHen “Brother Jiang calls them as Heavenly Strands, sister refers them as threads.”
Jiang Chen “It doesn’t matter what we call them if we understand what we are referring to.”
Jiang Chen “Did you practice this way from the start?”
WuHen nodded her head sincerely.
Jiang Chen “Good. What do you want to know first?”
WuHen “Brother Jiang, what does it feel like when you are breaking through to Martial Disciple realm?”
Jiang Chen was silent for a moment then responded “It feels like being reborn. It starts with extreme pain as your dantian is being reformed into a completely new one. The pain would seem unbearable many even collapse because of it. But, one should try to maintain his consciousness. You should concentrate and try to learn everything about the changes. Many fail to maintain their conscious and fail. Your mental strength should be tough enough for the breakthrough.”
Jiang Chen ” I will not ask you about your Cultivation Technique. You should understand your Cultivation technique as your back of the hand. It will rest with you forever.”
WuHen “What would be the main difference in our body after breaking through.”
Jiang Chen “Have you ever counted no. of threads of heavenly energy are inside you?”
WuHen “There are exactly 90000 threads inside my dantian.”
Jiang Chen “The first change that takes place after your breakthrough is, your dantian reshapes itself based on your cultivation technique.”
Jiang Chen “Then the formation of Attribute Seed, the attribute seed formed would be in gaseous form, you can see it and feel it but you can’t really touch it. They are not solid.”
WuHen ” Where will be our attribute seed? Would it be in the center of our dantian?”
Jiang Chen “Not exactly. For a few people, it would be in the center, for a few people it would be in corners, for a few people it would always change position.”
WuHen “It changes its positions, Why?”
Jiang Chen “I don’t know the answer to that. It depends mostly on the cultivation technique? My cultivation technique allows my attribute seeds to move around.” his pagoda was never in a fixed place, it always moves inside his dantian.
Jiang Chen “That is why it is a lot harder to detect my attribute seeds, so it would be very tough for anyone to harm my attribute seeds also my dantian.”
Jiang Chen “Even few of my brothers have similar resistance.”
WuHen “What else does this help in?”
Jiang Chen “Would you believe if I say, I can’t be crippled by harming/attacking my dantian”
WuHen “What? Is it true?”
Jiang Chen ” Almost certain, even if my meridians are damaged, they will be healed slowly. My dantian forms a special structure, that is why it is invulnerable to many kinds of attacks.”
WuHen was shocked hearing this.
Jiang Chen “Inside your dantian, surrounding you attribute seed, there would be a special place it is called attribute domain.”
Jiang Chen “It is the place where your attribute strands are stored.”
WuHen “Would there be any partition between heavenly threads and attribute threads?”
Jiang Chen “There would be an imaginary invisible partition.”
WuHen “What will happen if it is broken?”
Jiang Chen “You mean attribute seed?”
WuHen “No brother Jiang about that partition.”
Jiang Chen “I believe nothing will happen, all the threads would be influencing each other in your attribute domain. When heavenly energy enters into attribute domain, it converts itself to attribute threads under the influence of seed by time.”
WuHen “So it is not influenced by my cultivation?”
Jiang Chen “If there are no heavenly strands, how will attribute energy form?”
WuHen “Brother which is more powerful? Heavenly energy or attribute energy?”
Jiang Chen “There is no answer to that question. Heavenly energy forms the bulk while attribute energy forms the core, both are important. Assume soldiers are heavenly energy then attribute energy is commander/general.”
Jiang Chen “We need both to function properly.”
Jiang Chen “All martial techniques depend on your control of both attribute energy and heavenly energy.”
WuHen ” How will it affect alchemy?”
Jiang Chen “In alchemy we use pure attribute energy.”
WuHen ” How many strands will I have when I break through to the 1st stage?”
Jiang Chen “900000 strands of heavenly energy and 54000 strands of attribute energy.”
Jiang Chen “They will then increase with an increase in your cultivation.”
Jiang Chen “So, when you break through to martial disciple stage, you will form an Attribute seed/core, which will help you in the creation of your attribute energy. Also, your dantian takes form based on your cultivation technique. Your heavenly energy reserves would increase to 900000 and attribute energy reserves increase to 54000.”
Jiang Chen “Are, you clear about everything?”
WuHen “Brother, about stages in between?”
Jiang Chen “Hmm. There would be basically three changes happening. First would be the number of reserves.”
Jiang Chen “There are a total of 9 stages in the martial disciple realm. You already know about the reserves of a normal 1st stage Martial Disciple.”
WuHen “Normal?”
Jiang Chen “Me and your sister are different, we are dual attribute cultivators, our reserves are different from single attribute cultivators.”
WuHen “How Much?”
Jiang Chen “I will explain later.”
Jiang Chen “Along with the increase in reserves of heavenly energy and attribute energy, there would be an increase in thickness of strands?”
WuHen was confused hearing this “Brother heavenly energy is uniform right? I have been using heavenly energy for a long time, I haven’t noticed a difference?”
Jiang Chen “Energy outside would not change, but inside the dantian energy would be compressed and influenced by Attribute energy and core.”
Jiang Chen “This influence is not as prominent as what happens to attribute energy. To avoid the influence of attribute energy, heavenly energy clubs together to oppose the influence of attribute energy on them.”
WuHen “Brother Jiang, this is even more confusing?”
Jiang Chen “It is not exactly that confusing, the reaction between heavenly energy and attribute energy differ from dantian to outside.”
Jiang Chen “When heavenly energy and attribute energy combine outside the dantian, attribute energy acts as a trigger and heavenly energy as fuel which we calculate and study and utilize them as our attacks.”
Jiang Chen “Inside the dantian it is different, inside the dantian attribute energy tries to consume heavenly energy. So, heavenly energy opposes it. With the increase in your cultivation, the attribute seed grows bigger and so the attribute domain also increases, so the influence of attribute energy increases.”
WuHen “Heavenly energy reserves also increase right?”
Jiang Chen “But, attribute domain is grouped together, so its influence is lot more.”
Jiang Chen “So, heavenly energy goes through metamorphosis and two to three heavenly threads merge together forming a new and powerful heavenly strand, which would be thicker and longer than the previous heavenly strand.”
WuHen was puzzled hearing this and reminded everything that Jiang Chen explained and nodded her head.
Jiang Chen “That is why a significant amount of time is taken to stabilize your cultivation when you break through, it would be utilized in the conversion process.”
WuHen “So, the difference in attack power is double that of the previous stage.”
Jiang Chen nodded his head.
WuHen ” Brother Jiang, then how are you able to fight people way above your stage. You should be in severe disadvantage right?”
Jiang Chen “You already know I am a triple attribute cultivator, so the influence of my attribute energy is significantly more than normal single attribute cultivators.”
Jiang Chen “Also I already am in the fourth stage of my cultivation technique, as opposed to their third or second.”
Jiang Chen “This influence is significant too. My heavenly strands are a lot thicker than normal people. You can compare my heavenly energy thickness 3-4 times above my stage.”
Jiang Chen “So, my strength and influence would be more than normal.”
WuHen “Elder sister can also fight opponents above her level.”
Jiang Chen “She can fight who ever I can fight.”
WuHen “Brother Jiang , you said three to four stages right, you are 5th stage martial artist, so it mean you can even fight even ninth stage martial artists.”
WuHen “Didn’t you kill them when you are first stage martial disciple itself?”
Jiang Chen ” There were lot of calculations and thorough planning involved in that fight. It may sound simple but, I have made preperations for that fight for over a month. I have ran various mck battles and rehearsals for it. Also if NIGHT was not there, you wouldn’t be having this conversation right now.”
WuHen “Oh! NIGHT.” she know who is NIGHT.
WuHen “Is Night that strong?”
Jiang Chen “Night is strong but not that strong that it could ignore everything. NIGHT is more a war beast. Every minute it thinks of a fight. Its intelligence is all directed to a fight. It is one of the most intelligent beasts in this continent. It will count in top 100 if intelligence is taken as criteria.”
WuHen “There are no such beasts here?”
Jiang Chen “Your three tailed fox, even it is intelligent beast, but it is more of an escapist. Its a survivor. If you are in any dangerous situation and you want to escape, there is no beast more suitable for it than that fox.”
WuHen “Really?”
Jiang Chen “But it won’t fight. You will not get any help in that.” Jiang Chen said chuckling.
WuHen “I have my Mammoth for that.” she said smugly. She remembered she has two beasts of her own.
Jiang Chen “How is your elder sister progressing woth Leopard?”
WuHen “It is good, I don’t know why it always atacks sister, but then again it will not leave sister.”
Jiang Chen “It is just playing with your sister. It thinks your elder sister is a leopard like her. So, she plays like siblings.”
WuHen was puzzled hearing this “Elder sister is a leopard?”
Jiang Chen “That is just a cub, it sensed ice attribute from your sister and me , they also think me as their pack leader.”
WuHen didn’t know what to make of this.
Jiang Chen “Every beast have their own behaviors patterns and character, they usually hunt in coalition formed by siblings, when we fought that day, them might have thought that I am recruiting her to the pack. So, they are testing her.”
WuHen was laughing out hearing this.
WuHen “Brother , wouldn’t it be messy if they think so every time you fight.”
Jiang Chen “They are sensitive, they can recognize hostility. If it was others, they might try to kill them instead.”
WuHen nodded her head understanding, she understand this part, she spent lot of time with her mammoth she understand that.
Same time Meera came knocking the door.
Meera “Young master, elder Go has summoned you.”
WuHen was bit scared hearing this. She knew about Ning families visit. She knew Jiang Chen was involved in the deaths of Ning family members.
Jiang Chen “Ok our meeting ends here, I will meet you again later. Take time stabilizing everything, always cultivate , If I am not wrong you could already split your mind. Every second you are awake, you should continue cultivating, one part of mind should be dedicated for cultivating. You can do other things with other parts.”
WuHen “Brother, would it be a problem with Ning family?”
Jiang Chen “I am just too valuable. If they try to mess with me, well they will loose their future hope too.”
