I looked around the cave carefully,there was no sign of danger, after making sure it was safe, I walked in the corner and sat down, my mind was kept thinking one thought,
(How do I use the spirit beast saliva?)
I had no idea what to do, I was holding the saliva in my hand, staring at it, blankly!
The answer wouldn't come on its own. So I called for my master,
"Master… master…"
"Kid, before you do anything focus on you qi, once it's stable, drink a single drop of it, it's going to hurt a lot… but you must endure it again and again until your qi forms completely, only then even without conscious breathing, your qi will flow naturally," master said.
Master words interested something inside me, I took a deep breath and began focusing on my qi. Slowly I felt Qi begin to gather in my dantian, I took a first drop of saliva.
Instantly, I felt like fire was burning through my throat, boiling in my stomach, I clenched my teeth in pain and endure it, I had to,
I had to go home. Getting justice for my father.
So I drank again and again, each time the pain was killing me, until…it was gone,
The pain disappears.
Without even trying, I could feel my qi flowing through every vein, every cell in my body, it was like the qi and I had become one.
I stood up, stretched my back and arms, and my body felt lighter and stronger,
"Let's see what I got."
Then I punch the wall,
"Bang!"
Dust exploded from the wall, a hole had formed where my fist landed.
I stared at my hand,
"Wow."
"Hahaha…" I laugh in disbelief.
I punched again with my other hand, another hole, no pain and not a scratch on a fist.
Coming from another world, I never imagined I'd become this strong. Suddenly a cold wind blew,
Whoosh…
Whoosh…
The wind was coming from the left and it confused me. The only place wind should've passed through was above, which didn't make sense because there was a solid wall there.
I followed the direction of the wind but the wind wasn't from the whole wall, it was coming from the small stone which was in the wall.
I felt little bit strange, something about it doesn't feel right,
"could it be dangerous," I muttered myself
"Stuff like this usually kills people in stories."
Better to leave it, I stepped back and started to walk away. Then I heard sound,
"Tuk…"
I turned back, the stone had fallen from the wall.
I hesitated, " should I pick it up? Or not?"
I debated myself for a moment before curiosity won. I reached down and picked it up.
"Ahhhh… wait… nothing happened" I laughed to myself, " too much anime" I muttered.
I throw the stone gently into the corner of the cave and looked up, thinking,
(How should I get out?)
But then… I felt something in my hand, when I looked it was the same stone I threw.
"What the…?"
I threw it again, I didn't see it come back but it was already in my hand the moment I threw it.
(Why did I pick it up?)
This time I grabbed it hard and threw hard at the wall, then I jumped , grabbing on the roots, pulling myself up. At that moment I felt the stone was sinking into me, straight to my dantian, my inner energy glowed vast in golden until I couldn't see anything, everything vanished in that glow.
When I open my eyes, I saw clouds moving in the sky,
"Wait where am I?"
(I'm outside from that dangerous forest,) I thought.
I stood, check my body,
"I'm okay… what was that stone?"
Then I heard laughter,
"Hahahahah…"
It was a master voice.
"Master what happened?" I asked.
"You have a strong dantian." The master replied.
"Master, why are you so happy?" I asked.
"If you have a powerful dantian energy, it benefits me too." the master said.
"How master," I asked.
"to stay without vanishing, I need energy." Master replied
"You're… taking my energy?" I asked
" No kid, I'm not absorbing or taking your energy, I just need to be near it, to stay away from fading." master replied
I didn't say nothing all I did was a give a smile back,
(I know how much the master has helped me and even if the master wants energy, I won't mind giving as much as the master wants, that's what students do) I thought.
The master again went silent. I was looking at the sky, thinking to myself that, is it because of clouds I'm seeing or is it because I was there and seeing it? What happened if I opened my eyes and got back to my world, wouldn't it be wonderful? But before I find my way back home, I will make this world right.
I went back to the Taijian sect, on the way I saw a little boy and old man being bullied by few grown man, old man was begging,
"Please let us go, we have nothing" voice trembling.
One of the men was huge and tall, carrying a sword. Another had a rough face, small eyes and even though he wasn't very tall, he had thick arms and broad shoulders. The last one has dark hair and is tall but skinny.
They started to beat the old man and kid, not showing any mercy to them.
The old man cried, "please even if you want to beat, beat me, leave my grandson," his voice breaking with tears.
I didn't want to create any problem but seeing this I couldn't just walk away, I went near and before I said anything, the rough one spoke,
"Hey, you there, come here. Another fish, what a lucky day," laughing.
I didn't say anything, I just took out the bracelets which were gold and gave them to him and said,
"Let me pass through and be kind to this old man and his kid."
"Do you have more of this? If you do, just take it out before I beat you shit up." he said
"All I have is this," I said. The rough one searched all my pockets and didn't find anything.
"Where did you get this?" He asked harshly.
"My father gave it to me," I said calmly.
They were talking among themselves,
"Let's take him as hostage and get money from his father."
I was thinking,
(I could hear them, are they stupid? I'm right here.)
He grabbed my collar and threatened me,
"Boy, I like you but if you don't do as we say, I'm going to kill you out here."
"You don't want to do this," I said in clenching my teeth.
He looked at me in furious, maybe my words hurt him.
He punched me, but I didn't feel anything. Judging by his face, it looked like he hurt himself but he was too shy. In front of his friend, he punched me again, I didn't even move or flinch.
Then I said, " if you punch me once more, I will show no mercy," harshly.
Again he made a fist and was about to punch me but before his punch landed, I punch him back, he flew a few meters and landed on the ground,
"Ahhhh…my ribs!" Screaming in pain.
After a few seconds I couldn't hear him. Maybe he was knocked out.
The other man stepped back but the huge one came near me and swings his sword but I punched the sword with my bare fist,
"Tang…!" Breaking it in two.
He looked shocked,
"Who… are you?" He asked in a trembling voice.
He tried to step back but I grabbed his hand and crushed it, I could hear the sound of bones breaking,
Crack…crack…
He screamed in pain and begged for mercy,
"Please don't hurt me, let me go… I will stop this kind of thing."
"Because of men like you, innocent people suffer," I said and punched him in his chest. He didn't get time to dodge, lifting his legs into the air from f
orce but he stayed in the same place because I held his hand and didn't let go.
I tried to punch him again but he was already knocked out, so when I let go his hand, he was on the ground.
