The Hidden Myth of Ji Dara

[Indeed kid, you are truly blessed, we don't have ladies come in such perfect conditions even back where I'm from…]

Sam added as they watched Aunt Lin disappear out of sight towards the Farm area…

"Alright, time to get to work…" Dara spoke as he opened the door and stepped into the Qi Stone Room;

[Hey kid, I can sense that you are already using the cultivation technique I obtained with my blood sweat and tears which was also the cause of my death…]

[So, let me ask, how many meridians have you unlocked?]

[If you have unlocked at least 120 that would me mediocre but acceptable…]

[If you unlocked 240 then that would be good enough] [360 would be great] [480 would be outstanding and that was the best I could unlock…]

[So tell me how far off my level you are…] Long spoke with a proud tone as Dara simply shook his head and sighed;

'Since you are still feeling impetuous, then let this be your funeral…' Dara thought to himself before revealing;

[960!]

[What- *Cough!* *Cough!*] Long choked on his words as he simply went silent whilst Sam simply laughed his ass off;

[Oi, what's so funny… Do you even know anything about what we are talking about!?] Long bickered at Sam;

[I don't need to know what you are talking about to realize you have been smacked hard in the balls... Haha Haha ha!] Sam rubbed pepper on Long's wounded pride;

[Tch… Hateful fellow… Hmph!]

[Oi! You two! Pipe down!] Dara bellowed as he finally concentrated and began to absorb the energy within the room…

Gulu! Gulu!

Dara's meridians began to guzzle all the energy within the room with breakneck speed as all the energies began to gather around his body, until a vortex of energy was formed around him…

[It's truly 960 meridians!]

[Good one kid… Good one!]

Long praised whilst Sam simply watched on in amazement, whilst also gathering intel since he can help it; after all he was in the military…

Dara continued to absorb the energies as his blood, tissues, tendons, bones, muscles, flesh and organs began to stretch and creak like a parched desert which was just seeing the first signs of rain…

Dara felt so euphoric that he was grinning from ear to ear as his physical body continued to reshape themselves, but after a while, Dara's smile began to transform into a frown as it seems like his body was somewhat insatiable and didn't seem like it was going to be satisfied anytime soon and the energy within the room was already running out;

[Long, do you have any idea about what is going on with my body?]

[Tch, kid I am not inclined towards that way…] Long replied with disgust apparent in his tone;

[Oi. Cut the crap… I'm taking about my body absorbing such vast amount of energy and still not seeming to want to stop…] Dara frowned in fury;

[Oh… About that…]

[Well, if you liken the physical body to a patch of solid earth… Then absorbing Qi would be like water boring into that earth to create channels within it…]

[Thus, once the water within these channel dries up, you would definitely need more water to refill it, since more channels would be created the next time water permeates that patch of earth…]

[But when your soul was being reformed earlier, your Dao Tree took not only all the water within these channels, but also sucked out the ones the earth had absorbed along with it, and this means, to refill that patch of earth once again;]

[Not only would you have to put enough water for the earth to absorb once again, but another extra amount of water that would stay within the channels… which means you are currently like a sponge…]

[First you would absorb water to swell, and then absorb more which you will hold within your channels…] Long explained;

[What about the Dao Tree you just mentioned?] Dara realized that the tree he was seeing within his mental space was most likely the Dao Tree Long mentioned;

[One after the other kid.. When the time comes, I will definitely tell you everything you need to know about it…]

Long added as Dara opened his eyes and then left the Qi Stone room to find Ji Wang…

He knew where he would be and thus, didn't need to waste too much time in finding him...

"Eh?"

"Tribe Leader, what brings you here?"

"Has Elder Ting given you the go ahead to move around?" Ji Wang asked, simply concerned about Dara's health;

"Yeah, thanks…" Dara replied simply as Ji Wang sensed some sort of urgency within his tone;

"What brings you here?"

"I would like to take some more Qi Stones for cultivation…"

"The Royals would obviously not take this lying, and I intend to take the fight to them rather than bring it here-"

"-Because you don't want the tribe to be caught in the crossfire…"

"It's always nice to know that our thoughts are in sync Ji Wang…" Dara added as he tapped Ji Wang on the shoulder with a smile;

"But I thought you had a personal key to the vault, or have you misplaced it?" Ji Wang asked;

"No, I have it… But I simply felt it would look bad on me to simply march into the vault and pick anything I want, whenever I needed it…" Dara revealed;

"But you are the tribe leader?" Ji Wang was becoming even a little more surprised by Dara's behavior;

"Alright then, just give me the go ahead…"

"If it makes you feel better then; By all means, you can take as much Qi Stones you want, Tribe Leader…" Ji Wang replied with a smile as Dara chuckled slightly and left for the Tribe Store…

"What happened?" Uncle Min who saw the duo arrived and asked;

"He came to ask for permission to take some Qi Stones from the vault…" Ji Wang revealed;

"Eh?"

"That's strange, doesn't he remember he is the Tribe Leader?" Uncle Min was also slightly taken aback;

"Well he still does, but still came to ask for permission eitherways…"

"Hmm… Well I totally get where is coming from…"

"Same here, and I'm liking it…"

Ji Wang and Uncle Min discussed before they went on with the construction, whilst Dara finally arrived at the store…

Clink! Clank!

Jia!

The sound of keys fumbling and a lock giving way resounded in the area as some tribesmen saw Dara at the store entrance and stopped to give a bow, before going on with their tasks after Dara gave them a smiling nod…

Then he pushed the massive store double doors open....
