Chapter 61: 61. Discovery and Training
Kai found a good place after searching for a long time. It was a huge tree; its height alone was more than 100 meters, and its width was more than thirty meters.
'I should make this place my home from now on.'
Kai planned to drill the tree to make himself a house inside the tree. He wanted to do that without any help from the tools.
He has enough types of equipment to do the job in half a day, but he wanted to do that with his Will power and also do that as training.
Kai manifested his will power on the hands and started cutting them without using any of his power.
He didn't cut anything with the Will power alone, but he did that again. After doing that for an hour, Kai finally caused some small damage to the tree, but it was nearly enough to make a hole.
Kai has good control over his will power, but he doesn't have control over his attack power, so he is doing this training.
A week had passed since he started drilling the tree with Will Power alone, but he didn't even put a three-meter hole in it.
'Does the Will power not have any attack power, or is my approach wrong?' Kai wondered after seeing no result, even after working hard for a week.
Kai has a learning talent that gives him ten times more comprehension, so he should be able to do that without any problem. But he didn't achieve the expected result.
'Why did I forget about that?'
Kai thought about his first move in [Freedom Scripture]. The absolute move needs to 'Will' or think about something to make it possible.
Kai tried adding his thoughts or Will to his Will power and tried attacking the tree.
*Booom*
The place he attacked had a huge hole of more than twenty meters, and he didn't use any of his physical power in that attack.
'So, my approach is wrong all along. Why did I forget that I needed to add my Will to make things possible?' Kai thought in embarrassment.
He forgot the basics of Will path. The will path uses the Will power to make impossible things possible.
The Will Power is an empty shell without actual Will in it. The Will power in simple terms, is just energy of thought, and it needs the thought of the user to make it affect the real plane.
Thoughts and Will power both illusory things that didn't exist in the plane of existence; instead, they existed in the realm of imagination or dream, so for willpower to affect the real plane of existence, it needs the support of the 'thought' to take effect.
After realizing his mistake, Kai started adding his thoughts to every one of his strikes, and it didn't take long time for him to become proficient in it.
Kai now made a rough interior inside the tree, and he only needs to add finishing touches to make it complete.
He took one day to finish everything. He made a large room for him to practice.
Kai took the bark of the tree and covered the hole outside. He didn't want any beast to accidentally find his place and interrupt his training.
Kai took a day off since he hadn't slept for a week. After the rest, Kai decided to continue his training with Will Power.
He wanted to use his Will Power like Qi. When using any attack or defense move, a cultivator would operate their Qi in a specific direction in their meridians.
Kai wanted to achieve the same thing using Will Power. For a long time, Kai only added the Will Power at the end of the attack, and he didn't even operate his Will Power inside the meridians.
Kai added a small amount of Will Power to his meridians to avoid any danger. The Will Power didn't damage his meridians; instead, it actively started revolving around his meridians.
'So, this is how the Will Power should be used.' Kai realized this after seeing the Will Power in the meridians.
Kai continued to operate his Will Power inside the meridians, and it became smoother and smoother, but he didn't have enough control over it for him to make any moves.
Using Qi, Kai can augment his body or any specific part, but he wasn't able to do that using Will Power.
'So, controlling Will Power outside is different from controlling inside' Kai concluded.
Kai sat in a meditative position and started to focus on controlling his Will Power. He tried controlling all the Will Power inside his meridians, but it didn't work; instead, it rioted inside his body, making Kai stop his attempt.
'I should try to do this step by step'
Kai released all the Will Power from his meridians and only injected a small amount again for his practice.
He wasn't able to control the energy properly, it was different from controlling the Qi.
Qi is an energy that exists in the real plane, but Will Power isn't like that. It didn't have any shape or state of matter like Qi.
So, it was hard for Kai to control inside his body. When he controls his Will Power outside his body, he only needs to think or desire, and the Will Power will act according to his command, but it isn't possible inside his body.
Kai started practicing again, but this time instead of trying to control it, he tried moving the Will Power in a certain direction.
It was easy compared to control, so he tried doing this, and he could achieve control over Will Power step by step instead of directly controlling it.
After training for another week, Kai had to stop his training. His food ran out; that is, he ate all the edible parts of the one-horned rabbit.
'Do I need to go for another hunt?' Kai thought with hesitation.
He didn't want to go outside again without knowing the situation outside.
'Let's do this; this idea is a good one. Why hadn't I thought about that before?'
