Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Chapter 90 Changing The Qi

[Mass Release is here! I worked so hard to get this together, and I really hope that you guys enjoy this. Consider gifting to show your support, and encourage me to do this again in the future.]

"When you are as strong as I am, anything is possible, my disciple." Li Tian chuckled. "But I think that your friend is right. I should start changing your Qi completely."

"Wait, what were we doing till now then?"

"We were depleting your Qi. That does not count for anything. Now comes the painful part. But I am sure that you can sit through this." Li Tian said.

He removed his hands from my back, and snapped his fingers.

Aaargh!

Qi flew into my body. My veins started bulging, and I could feel that my dantian felt overloaded. The foundation that I built was crumbling away. It was like he was destroying my cultivation! The Qi felt more like poison than anything else. The little Qi that I had in my body tried to fight back like it had a mind of its own, but it did nothing.

I started panting, not able to get enough air. This was painful, but that was not the biggest problem. I had a feeling that any moment now, one of my veins would burst, and I would never be able to cultivate again.

I looked within. The meridians, which allowed for the Qi to flow within me, were all overflowing and bulging. One of them looked like it was about to tear. I felt my heart stop beating.

"Don't worry. I am not trying to destroy your chances for the future. I am trying to help you out. You are resisting. Let the Qi flow and dispel whatever you have inside. Let your foundation rebuild itself.

I nodded, and tried to soften my muscles. I took a few deep breaths and calm myself, even though it was almost impossible in all of this pain. The Qi that was coming from my master was flowing straight to the dantian now, and the Qi that was already there was getting replaced.

A blue colored stream of light was getting expelled by me. I was a little surprised. This was the exact cyan blue that the Blue Dragon Spear Art's dragon looked like. And this Qi came into contact with the Qi around it, and it started sizzling away like it was trying to eat at it.

"It does not allow any other attribute to live alongside it. That is the problem with the lightning attribute Qi. It might seem powerful at first, but it will halt your cultivation eventually because you will be stuck with only lightning based attacks, which are the rarest of all the attributes." Li Tian said.

"Although he might be true, all of this was truly unnecessary. I can always just get a few skills from the system store. Why do I have to do this?" I thought to myself.

"Because you have to decrease your reliance on the system. Who knows when the person who made this whole charade thinks that this is all getting boring and takes away the system? I need to be able to rely on myself in this world." another voice deep inside my name out.

Meanwhile, the Qi that was coming from Li Tian had almost completely replaced the Qi within my body. It felt completely different. I felt, so out of character. Like I was slower than before, and that I was nerfed.

Ping!

For the first time in a while, the system gave me a message.

"Host strength has decreased by one. Host speed has decreased by three." the system said.

My pupils dilated. I actually got nerfed? How could this happen? I needed to get stronger. Not weaker!

"System homepage," I muttered in the quietest voice that I could muster.

I could see a few changes almost immediately. Instead of directly taking away the stat points, there was this red nerf beside. It was like I was in a weakened state, and the system knew. But two other changes raised my eyebrow.

My proficiency of the Blue Dragon Spear Art had increased. I thought that the system would give a notification for this, but it didn't. But this was the change that I think brought the concern within Li Tian.

The change to expert proficiency must have been the reason that the Qi within my body took an attribute. But didn't that meant that every time I excelled in a skill, my attribute would change? How would the attribute change to multiple attributes at once?

"Now then, it is time for the final stretch." Li Tian's voice distributed my line of thought. Final stretch? I thought that this was all over. What else was there to do?

"Just try your best to withstand all the Qi that I am about to send to you. And do not worry, it is not life threatening at all. It will just feel like it." Li Tian said.

"Wait a minute. Why would I feel that it is going to be life threat-"

Immediately, the amount of Qi that was going into my dantian doubled. My body screamed and I could hear it. The muscles started tearing apart, and bones started cracking under the sudden load. But Qi had a property to heal. And this Qi was healing my body as quickly as it was tearing it apart.

This was just like the time when I was undergoing the very first cycle of the heaven devouring art. And it was not a feeling that anyone could get used to. I struggle to stay conscious.

My dantian felt like it was ballooning as well. And it was not big enough to keep all of this Qi inside.

Ping!

"Strength increased by 1 point."

Ping!

"Speed increased by 3 points."

Ping!

"Host has reached the third layer of the Foundation Establishment stage."
