Volume 5 - 309 The Most Natural Flow

After that, Virus resumed checking out and taking into account the rest of the options one by one, however, in the end, as his eyes fell on number twelve, ?12. Manual Origin Design?, a profound light sparkled within them as he thought, ’Options one to eleven could be considered as restricting options that ’Origin’ has offered to me. No matter which one I choose amongst them, eventually, I’ll still be stuck within the frame of fate that ’Origin’ has already foreseen for me. But... the twelfth option is different! By electing this simple selection, the door to infinite possibilities will be opened up before me. I would literally be able to develop my own Energy Pathways in whatever design and wiring system I feel like and that would be entirely out of what ’Origin’ could most likely predict for my possible future. If I choose the last one, my journey and path of cultivation would be certainly something that hasn’t been treaded before... a path that’s uniquely for me alone!’

At any rate, after the ’Naturalist’ perspective was birthed into existence, at first, many people didn’t agree with it as it wasn’t a truly proven theory in the end. But that slowly started to change when some scientists discovered two sets of Energy Pathways with similar substances. The first Energy Pathway was very different from a normal human Energy Pathway, while the second one was extremely similar to the common human Energy Pathway which occurred the most naturally in a person.

Having found these two Energy Pathways that had very similar substances and materials, scientists started to do many experiments in order to reject or accept the ’Naturalist’ theory of Energy Pathways.

Anyway, taking advantage of this opportunity, they commenced many types of research as they tried various experiments on the carriers of those unique Energy Pathways. At last, after several years of non-stop experimenting, a shocking result displayed itself before those groups of scientists... the fact that the cultivator who was in possession of the natural and common Energy Pathway was progressing much, much faster than the other one. But that wasn’t the end as that cultivator was more superior in almost every aspect one could think of compared to the other one!

Not satisfied with just a single experiment utilizing only two samples, the scientists decided to find other similar cases in the Cultivation Multiverse of Qi of the Technological Universe itself! And indeed, after searching for some time, they did find a few other cases as they experimented on them once more!

Yet, at last, they faced the same results again!

And with these results presenting themselves before them, with clear hints of disbelief, the scientists could only accept the ’Naturalist’ theory reluctantly!

With the ’Naturalist’ theory partially proven to some extent with that. A lot of attention was drawn on the said theory as countless scientists started to publish their own perspectives and articles in that theory as they started expanding the topic while it was developed further by each passing year.

And amongst these countless article data, right now, a particular paper had just drawn Virus’ awareness to itself.

In his past world, the future, since mankind could not re-design Energy Pathways according to their own desires and wishes, other than the initial ’Naturalist’ theory which was a partially proven fact, the rest didn’t attract much attention to themselves. And all in all, eventually, the numerous articles were just buried as they didn’t really matter that much.

But now, since this capability of reconstruction of Energy Pathways had just presented itself in front of him, he decided to look through every piece of knowledge he possessed regarding the reconstruction of Energy Pathways.

And thus, as he was searching everything, in the subsection part of ’Naturalist’ theory, a particular article which was ditched to a forsaken corner caught his undivided attention.

According to this article, the writer argued that if the ’Naturalist’ theory was indeed correct, then ’the more’ natural an Energy Pathway is within the human body, ’the better’ that set of Energy Pathway would be in its designing and wiring quality!

Or in short, the more natural, the more flawless!

The writer of that paper also introduced another possibility related to the ’Naturalist’ Theory. And that was regarding the most common and natural Energy Pathway for a human-body. He stated that what we currently believe as the most flawless Energy Pathway might just be far from it!

He said the journey of evolution has perhaps just begun and we still might not even be close to the point where we can call our common Energy Pathway half-flawless!

But anyhow, with these two preconceptions considered, he concluded his article by asking a very crucial question, and that was, [What could possibly be the most perfect and flawless Energy Pathway for a human-being? Or in another term, what is the most natural Energy Pathway for a human body?]

After that, he ended his article by stating that the scientific society might be able to think of the most natural Energy Pathway for a human-being without waiting for the evolution to perhaps do its job!

Unfortunately though, after that, even the writer himself seemed to have lost all interest on the said subject completely as he released no following articles answering his own questions.

This paper attracted Virus’ attention and even excited him to some extent as he wondered, ’Hmm... what could possibly be the most naturally occurring Energy Pathway for the human race?’

’Hmmm... since in the future, I’m going to try what that group of mad scientists did but failed miserably at the end, leading to their own eventual ruin due to various reasons... I better try to predict the possible problems and complications of doing that right now... I mean other than the main issue they were knowledgeable about!’ {A/N: This group of mad scientists was mentioned in chapter 24, a reference back to the time Virus found the ’Origin’.}

’In short, I need to think of the other possible reasons it didn’t work. One reason for that to happen could be because...’ With a shimmer flickering throughout his being, he went on, ’Hmm, right! That could be one of the problems! But in order to hopefully solve that, I need to think of a way so my Energy Pathways would...’ At this point, Virus’ thoughts were censored, but nevertheless, he continued with his deep contemplation for some time.

Now, as to what exactly those contemplations and considerations were... that shall remain for another time!

’So... considering that problem and its possible solution... what could be the most natural Energy Pathway for the human race?’

’Hmm, let’s try to ask that question in another way... what is the most organic, natural, wholesome, and intrinsic flow for hum-’ At this point of his deliberations, abruptly, as if a bombshell had just dropped on his head, his currently non-existent eyes went wide open as he felt like the answer was right on the tip of his tongue, ’Flow? Did I just say flow... the most organic and natural flow... within the human body...’

A few seconds passed, when eventually as if the fog obstructing his view had been cleared away at last, enlightened, with his mood in a mind-boggled state, absolutely shocked, he cried out, ’BLOOD FLOW! The most naturally occurring flow within a human being is THE CIRCULATION OF BLOOD!!!’
