Chapter 164: Thunder

At the moment the lightning flashed, Zhang Xiaohua was enjoying the fruits of his labour . His perception was still outside the body when the thunder rumbled . Although it was high above, he who was carefully perceiving the strands of Qi outside felt as if a huge hammer had hit him . Zhang Xiaohua felt blood rushing up and the sweet taste of blood in his mouth . He couldn’t help but open his mouth to spit the blood that had welled up . His nine shallow and one deep breathing pattern was immediately interrupted .

Earlier, the lively Yuan Qi of the outside world was flowing into Zhang Xiaohua's body in a very orderly manner . After this thunder, suddenly pure heaven and earth vitality increased in the surrounding environment by more than ten times . These vitalities also rushed to Zhang Xiaohua . Although these strands are pure, they are very different from the previous vitality drawn by Zhang Xiaohua . The previous vitality was lively, like a vibrant child, somewhat naughty and playful, but these new strands of vitality were not only purer than previous ones, but too lively, and can even be said to be tyrannical, like drunken rude men, or young people with nowhere to vent their energy .

A large amount of disordered Yuan Qi entered Zhang Xiaohua’s body, and immediately the Qi in Zhang Xiaohua's body was turned upside down . If before it was like a gurgling stream, it now instantly became like a monstrous wave, which overwhelmed Zhang Xiaohua! Countless violent strands of vitality swarmed into Zhang Xiaohua's pores, and Zhang Xiaohua, who was earlier grieving for not being able to feel the Qi in his body, was able to sense a large amount of Qi rushing into his body . Because Zhang Xiaohua was circulating the Qi in his meridians, those huge amounts of vitality immediately rushed into his meridians, but the amount of Qi exceeded Zhang Xiaohua's expectation . He immediately lost control of these vitalities, and the stormy vitalities flooded his virgin meridians!

Zhang Xiaohua immediately felt severe heart-breaking pain coming from his body, his state of Emptiness of mind collapsed in an instant, and at that moment, the blood that he had spit had just landed .

Zhang Xiaohua panicked for a while . Could it be that this was getting out of hand?

Zhang Xiaohua, who had never faced such a difficult situation, felt helpless and did not know what to do .

He felt constant severe pain in his body, it wouldn’t stop just because of his ignorance . It continued to rain fiercely, and another thunder sounded above his head . A large amount of violent vitality entered Zhang Xiaohua's body through his pores .

Zhang Xiaohua had the feeling of drowning, infinite Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi oppressed him, whipping him like waves, making him unable to take a breath . In this difficult situation, Zhang Xiaohua suddenly passed out . His only thought before passing out was why was his luck so bad? He had just found his Qi sense!

Actually, Zhang Xiaohua lost consciousness, not due to cultivation deviation, but because it was now midnight .

Our Zhang Xiaohua fell asleep on time again .

As soon as he fell asleep, he began breathing in nine shallow and one deep breath pattern again . The flickering lights in his dreams guided his body and the frequency of flickering was slowly adjusted .

Instantly, the star power of the night sky entered Zhang Xiaohua’s body . Although this star power was lesser in amount, it was superior in quality . Soon, the star power poured into Zhang Xiaohua's pores, forming a thin layer of star power around him, preventing the crazy influx of external energy . At the same time, Zhang Xiaohua's body under the guidance of the flickering lights formed a frequency invisible to the naked eye .

The violent vitality was wildly rampaging in his meridians, destroying wherever it went .

At this time, the star power wrapped up these rampant energies . The frequency of the star force was the same as the frequency of Zhang Xiaohua's body . At this frequency, as the small amount of star force moved along his tattered meridians and a wonderful change occurred .

The small amount of Star Force moved along the broken meridians, other traces of Star Force joining it as it moved along, constantly repairing the damaged parts . Moreover, the meridians that had been damaged by the violent energy, after being repaired by the Star Force, expanded to more than twice in size .

The vitality wrapped in the Star Force had not stopped its tyranny and still wanted to break the shackles of the Star Force, but under the influence of the flickering lights and Star Force, the vitality was gradually assimilated . The violent energy in the vitality was gradually extracted and separated . While circulating in his meridians, by the restraint of star power, the extracted vitality gradually got integrated into his meridians, into the flesh and bones, and even into the head of Zhang Xiaohua .

The rain and thunder outside continued unceasingly .

Zhang Xiaohua's body did not cut off the channel for the absorption of Yuan Qi due to the influx of Star Force . On the contrary, at the special frequency, Zhang Xiaohua's pores were like bottomless black holes, attracting infinite amounts of tyrannical vitality . Zhang Xiaohua’s surroundings are filled with endless vitality . At this time, if Zhang Xiaohua were awake, he would find that the description of the amount of vitality present outside in the Serene Heart Sutra book matched with the present scenario . However, there are subtle differences .

The difference is that the Yuan Qi outside is excessively active .

Although Zhang Xiaohua had fallen asleep, he was breathing according to the Serene Heart Sutra, he was circulating Qi in his body, and he was absorbing the Yuan Qi outside into his body . The Star Force had formed a thin protective film in his whole body . The violent Yuan Qi that entered his body was immediately divided into two parts, one part is the pure energy that Zhang Xiaohua drew into the body on other days, and the other is the mysterious vitality that the Star Force extracted from it . One part was circulating in the meridians while the other part was being integrated into his meridians and body .

The meridians after being repaired by the Star Force looked fine, but after this vitality was integrated into the meridians, it was as if a catalyst had been added, not only did the speed of repair speed up but they also seemed much more energetic . They became much more tough and flexible .

Moreover, this mysterious vitality also merged with Zhang Xiaohua's bones that had already been tempered by the Heavenly Dipper Fist technique . The vitality evenly penetrated into the 108 bones making the bones gradually resemble jades .

However, there is some vitality influenced by the flickering lights, which moved up and entered a mysterious location in Zhang Xiaohua's brain .

Leaving aside the mysterious vitality, the Star Force and the vitalities wrapped in the Star Force are still the same as before . They flow in the meridians that are gradually recovering and are simultaneously getting tempered . Not long afterwards a cycle of circulation was completed . The resulting concentrated Yuan Qi and Star Force flowed into his Zhong(middle) dantian . More Yuan Qi and Star Force entered his meridians to start a new cycle of circulation .

After an unknown amount of time, it’s still raining, but the thunderstorm is over .

Zhang Xiaohua still sat there, continually refining the Qi in his body, but the vitality of the outside world was getting lesser and lesser, part of it was absorbed by Zhang Xiaohua, but more was dissipated into the environment .

It wasn't until the sky turned bright that the heavy rain let up, and the Yuan Qi outside returned to its former state, only leaving some faint traces in the Medicine Field .

Zhang Xiaohua opened his eyes as the sun rose above the horizon .

The Medicine Field after the rain appeared very fresh and different than usual . Though Zhang Xiaohua could only feel that the herbs were more vigorous than earlier .

At this time, Zhang Xiaohua remembered the events of last night, and quickly stood up and tried moving his limbs . Fortunately, they were not paralyzed, and his hands and feet were under his command . He was thinking of sitting down in meditation to check on the state of his body, suddenly he felt a sticky and uncomfortable sensation on his body . On looking, he found that there was a thin layer of black mud-like things on his body mixed with blood . He raised his arm to his nose to discover that it had a revolting smell . Zhang Xiaohua did not know what happened after he fell asleep last night . The blood on the ground, which he had spit out last night, was already dry .

Zhang Xiaohua frowned and thought for a moment . Finding that he had no remembrance of the events of last night, he hurriedly walked out of the grass shed . Before leaving, he rubbed some dirt with his feet to cover up the blood on the ground . He felt that although this action was in vain, it was still more hygienic .

Fortunately, there was heavy rain last night . It was very early, and there was no one to be seen in the small courtyard . After Zhang Xiaohua washed up and returned to his room, he heard the movements of others getting up in the small courtyard .

The heavy rain just stopped in the morning, and the ground outside was muddy . Zhang Xiaohua cancelled his morning exercise plans and took out the pages of Misty Steps . Fortunately, there was no damage . Zhang Xiaohua carefully put them on the desk . Then he finally sat down on the bed cross-legged .

Zhang Xiaohua looked out of the window . The day was already clear, the sky was a clear blue, and the sun had risen completely above the horizon, slowly spreading its heat .

Zhang Xiaohua calmed himself .

He was afraid of cultivation deviation .

Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua still did not dare to let his perception out, but instead meditated according to the Serene Heart Sutra, and tried to imagine the Internal force in his body . Was he so lucky? He couldn't perceive the internal force in his body earlier, but now he immediately felt the presence of thin, hair-like Qi in his meridians!

This . . . , this . . , this is what He Tianshu called as the internal force .

Zhang Xiaohua felt wild with joy . Was he dreaming? If he wasn’t concentrating on his work, he would bite his finger with his teeth to check .

However, the Qi gave a sensation like mercury as it circulated in his meridians . The flow felt smooth but there were some areas where he could he feel a painful swelling, reminding him that it was not a dream .

Faced with this situation, Zhang Xiaohua didn't know what to think . Last night's danger was still vivid in his mind, but when he woke up, he the danger was nowhere to be seen and he had got Qi sense . Something must have occurred last night but he did not know what?

No one could tell Zhang Xiaohua about it .

However, the events that took place were beneficial, and since he couldn’t get to the bottom of it anyway, he could only accept the fruits . Fortune is always better than misfortune . If he woke up in the morning with his hands and feet paralyzed, won’t it be 10,000 times more miserable than it is now? At that time, Zhang Xiaohua would want to cry but would have no tears . So why would he bother now?

What's more, if you close your eyes, will you never wake up again?

Zhang Xiaohua gave up on seeking the reason . He circulated Internal force in his meridians for a cycle . He found the real circulation of Qi to be very different from the previously imagined felling . He felt that it was a fresh and amusing feeling .

Feeling joyful Zhang Xiaohua circulated the internal force through his meridians for 36 cycles . Before getting up, he silently practised according to Serene Heart Sutra and released his perception outside cautiously . To his surprise, he found that Yuan Qi that swarmed him last night had disappeared without a trace . His perception could not draw even the slightest amount of vitality .

Zhang Xiaohua frowned .

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua felt something . Then a knock sounded on his door .

Zhang Xiaohua quickly jumped from the bed, and walked to the door, asking, “Who is it?”

“It’s me,” He Tianshu answered .

Zhang Xiaohua took a few steps to open the door and asked with a smile, “Captain He, how did you get up so early today?”

He Tianshu entered the room and said, “I woke up even earlier, but knowing that you would be sleeping, I came only now . ”

Zhang Xiaohua was taken aback, looking at the sky outside, it was still too early .

He Tianshu didn’t speak further, he reached out his hand and said, “Give it . ”

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned again and said strangely, “What? What do you want?”

He Tianshu said angrily, “Misty Steps, hurry up and give it to me . After giving it to you yesterday, I didn't sleep well at night . I was afraid of what would happen to it . There were heavy rain and thunder last night . It made me panic . I feared that you would again sleep in that grass shed last night . What if it got wet?”

Zhang Xiaohua understood his concern, he hurried to the desk and returned those pages to He Tianshu . He Tianshu took it in a hurry, took a closer look, and after confirming that it was still fine, put it in his bosom .

After storing it in his bosom, He Tianshu let out a long breath and said, “Fortunately, you weren’t in the grass shed last night . The grass shed wouldn’t protect you against the wind and the rain, and the cold and wind is just a small matter . The key is that the night was too evil . You don’t know Zhang Xiaohua, practising Internal energy on a rainy day is a big taboo . The thunder can interfere with people's internal strength circulation . It might be impossible to make up for mistakes later . Moreover, practising internal strength requires a good mood . Thunder can make it impossible to meditate . It's easy to lose heart, and, last night the thunder felt as if hitting the top of my head, making my heart jump wildly . ”

“However, it doesn’t matter since you didn't go to the grass shed last night . As for the way you sleep, even if the thunder rumbles on top of your head, you probably wouldn’t know . ” He Tianshu looked at Zhang Xiaohua and didn't forget to add, “Moreover, since, you don’t have Qi sense and there is no internal force in your meridians, I think the thunder has nothing to do with you . By the way, have you read this step, is it very exceptional? I think it’s better to read it, even if you don’t understand it . ”

Zhang Xiaohua's forced a smile . Why did He Tianshu put the cart before the horse? If he had told this yesterday, he wouldn't have gone to the grass shed to be frozen . He had to suffer so much pain yesterday that he almost passed out .

He Tianshu looked at Zhang Xiaohua silently, thinking that his confidence received a blow yesterday while watching the Misty Steps, so he patted his shoulder and said, “It’s okay, Zhang Xiaohua, I think you are still somewhat talented in this movement technique . You couldn’t get the Second Level footwork, for the time being, it is no problem . I will teach you when I understand it . You can rest assured that this will not affect your participation in the Martial Arts Conference . After all, I also needed…”

Speaking of which, He Tianshu stopped talking, Zhang Xiaohua listened and said quickly, “No, Captain He, I read this footwork carefully, I think…”

He Tianshu waved his hand and stopped him from speaking, “I know, it feels very esoteric and difficult to understand . You should know that this footwork is the undisclosed secret of our sect . If it wasn’t difficult, would it be still called mysterious? There is an old saying, time can grind an iron rod to a needle . As long as we try hard enough, we can definitely learn it . It isn’t even the Third Layer yet!”

Zhang Xiaohua simply nodded . He Tianshu saw that Zhang Xiaohua admit his mistakes and did not stay any longer . He said, “I will leave now . Time is precious . Seeing the Martial Arts Conference is getting closer and closer, I will take the time to understand this movement technique . You can go to Medicine Field more often . The matter of herbs is left to you . Wait for the Martial Arts Meeting to end, I will make Nie Xiaoer and others thank you well . ”

When Zhang Xiaohua heard it, he said happily, “How about letting them teach me martial arts?”

He Tianshu made a bitter face when he heard it but immediately thought that since they weren’t here they couldn’t blame him . He immediately said with a smile, “Okay, I will promise you on their behalf . When they come back, I will let them teach you one by one . How about a set of boxing techniques?”

Zhang Xiaohua thought about it and said, “I can't learn fist arts, let them teach me some common Sword Art or Sabre Art in Jianghu . ”

He Tianshu smiled cunningly, “Okay, I will make them teach you personally . ”
