Slithering My Way To Heavens - Chapter 12 Enlightenment 2
‘To increase it’s size, I can do two things. I can dig deeper or wider, but what do I dig. It should somewhere in a my body with a great concentration of energy if this kind of phenomena can occur.’
‘I need to find it, if I want to learn how to properly cultivate.’
I focused my attention to myself and concentrated on feeling what was inside me.
‘There’s isn’t a trace of the energy I cultivate that must mean it is present in a different form. At that time it was in ethereal form like vapour, but now it can be in liquid or solid form or any form that I can imagine of.’
After looking for it for a few minutes in my body, I decided to look inside my head. After a few seconds of looking here and there, I finally sensed a small bead like structure in the middle of my brain.
I couldn’t feel much about it but it seemed pretty smooth and dense. I couldn’t make anything out of it. I just seemed like a stone which was connected to the most important part of my body. And that’s what makes it suspicious, I concentrated all my sense on to it and tried to analyze it.
‘Ah, I think this is it.’
After delving deeper into it, I found some sensation of energy. Although it was somewhat different from the energy I get from chaos cultivation, but it seemed like a form of it.
‘No wonder I couldn’t detect it when I was looking for energy within my body at that time.’
Now, the only problem I had left was expansion.
‘Seems like digging is not an option thus, the late is out of the view of reference or maybe not.’
‘Even though it’s solid it’s made through extreme compression of energy, and how I increase it’s size? Lower the density or… put more energy into it.’
‘Lowering the energy density would be harming myself. So, increasing the amount of energy is the way to go.’
I kept thinking and thinking, but I had no clue about what to do. So, I opened up my mind and started as my self, how is gas converted into liquid.
‘First, conversion into liquid is important then, we’ll talk about solid.’
After a while of trial, I noticed I could use the energy inside the bead and make it follow my commands. This realization gave me another idea.
‘Okay, let’s do this. First take them inside.’
Exerting my full mental capacity, I covered my whole body with energy, bringing the energy wisps closer to my skin from the bead. This in turn made the energy outside go farther than me.
‘Heh, the farther you are, the faster you’ll come. If I can do this, my life is set.’
With a jolt I forced the energy inside my body to outside and pushed it as far as possible within my control.
‘Fuck yeah! I can do this.’
The energy concentration within my body lowered by a lot thus, the surrounding energy which had gone farther, contracted faster than my exertion and rushed towards my body.
The energy density around me had increased by hundreds of times.
I could feel the density was such at a level, it was almost forming droplets. Not wasting my time, I called my energy back towards my body, pushing all of the extra energy into my body, with the help of energy repulsion.
After a certain amount, I couldn’t push anymore as it seemed like my body will implode if I pushed more.
‘Fuck, how do I call my energy back inside my body.’
Realizing the gravity of the situation I couldn’t pulled more.
I kept thinking about what to do, and after about a long wait of five minutes, when my mental capacity was at it’s end, I realised I could make a hole inside my own energy field, to let the extra energy pass out.
‘I am so dumb. Damn it.’
I felt the energy and tried to control it to make a hole inside it, but couldn’t. Without anything to rely I decided to go all out.
“Chaos cultivation!”
Just as I said that, all my energy and the extra energy vanished. I again felt, the comfortable feeling of energy coursing through my body

“Hah, fuck it. I did it. Hah.”
“I have created something, that Tristar world recognises as a great creation.”
Although, I had very little mental strength left, I wanted to praise myself for the concentration, for the patience, for my intelligence and for everything I did to accomplish this.
‘Although there’s no one here, me praising myself is necessary to go on, in this world at least.’
‘I need confidence in myself, and unending amount of confidence. I know what I did today is too dangerous to do with my minuscule strength but I need to grow faster. As fast as I possibly can, I don’t know where I am currently with this frog, but this kind of peace can’t be found anywhere in this world, I know at least that much.’
‘I don’t why, but I feel this frog has been waiting just for me to show up. Why is it waiting for me? Who am I to it? Since everyone here would be a reincarnator from their world, then I am no different. I am as common as I possibly could be.’
Just as I was thinking about all this, I heard something coming towards me.
The frog flashed before my eyes, and before I could react it held in me in its sticky fingers.
“What the hell are you doing kid? Do you wanna destroy yourself? Even if you want to, you are not allowed to. Are you stupid? Damned kid!”
I had frozen as I could see nothing but worry in its eyes. Something I had never seen, in my previous life, not for me at least.
for visiting.
‘Worried? Worried for me?’
