“Cough, cough, cough—”
He Ao raised the water glass beside him, violently pouring water into his mouth to swallow the food stuck in his throat while continuously grabbing more food from beside him.
With the arrival of Dawn, a thick energy gathered in his chest.
This was the first Dawn in the Copy World that he could cultivate.
As he had guessed, the Dawn of the Copy World, just like the main world, brought forth a surge of energy.
However, unlike the main world, the energy brought by the Dawn in the Copy World was not as exaggerated compared to the regular energy; it was about ten times that of the energy absorbed from breathing.
His breathing grew more rapid as he continuously absorbed more energy from the surrounding void.
The energy from the food continuously gathered at He Ao’s throat; while he kept swallowing more food, he guided this energy towards his chest.
The energy between his muscles began to slowly surface from within He Ao’s body, preventing the energy in his chest from dissipating.
As the energy increased, the pressure inside He Ao also grew.
He Ao felt like his body was a powder keg on the verge of explosion, filled with pressure, and if it burst, he might be blown to pieces.
But without hesitation, he manipulated the power drawn from his throat and collided it with the energy in his chest.
The two incompatible energies collided in an instant, then repelled each other, only to be squeezed back by the energy surging within the body.
The immense pressure began to transfer to He Ao’s body, which instantly swelled by 10%, from a muscular elderly man to a somewhat portly one.
Some wrinkled skin stretched taut, with bright red capillaries clearly visible beneath the skin; a series of cracks opened along the skin, leaking threads of fresh blood.
He Ao felt as if millions of tiny knives were stabbing him, slicing open his skin.
The precondition for fusing two incompatible gases is that the external glass vessel must withstand the pressure beyond that fusion threshold.
He Ao crouched down, clenched his teeth, and silently focused on the movement of the two forces within his chest.
“Heaven Qi” from the chest and “Earth Qi” from the throat were compressed together by the surging energy within the body, forcing the incompatible elements to cling tightly to each other and begin to seep into one another.
However, when the two energies intermingled, a stronger repulsive force surged out from between them, and He Ao’s arms and thighs suddenly expanded and tore open several centimeters long wounds due to the intense swelling.
His flesh gradually became unable to suppress this immense power.
He didn’t speak but continued to quicken his breathing and intake food, increasing the concentration of the two energies.
The pain all over his body intensified, but it had not yet exceeded the level he could endure.
He was like a mad gambler, putting all his bets on one option.
Bang—
Just as his body began to expand like a fat man’s, a dull sound suddenly erupted from his chest.
The pressure that kept on rising reached its limit, and the two types of energy within He Ao’s chest rapidly fused.
As the pressure broke past that limit, the repulsive force between them unexpectedly disappeared in an instant, turning into an attraction force instead.
The massive pressure from inside out also vanished at the same time, and He Ao’s figure returned to its original form.
Ignoring the fresh blood oozing from the wounds all over his body, he concentrated all his attention inside his chest.
As the two energies fused, strands of extraordinary brilliance emerged from the combined energy.
Five completely new attributes of energy began to churn within this fused energy.
“Yin and Yang unite to give birth to the five elements.”
He Ao closed his eyes, pondering the sentence and illustrations on the fourth page of the little book,
Metal generates lung,
The energy with a sharp and restless nature was drawn out, revolving around the lungs.
Wood generates liver,
The cool and gentle Qi was directed towards the liver.
Water generates kidney,
The damp and icy Qi was directed towards the kidneys.
Fire generates heart,
The intensely hot and lively Qi was directed towards the heart.
Earth generates the spleen,
the moist and sweet Qi was drawn towards the spleen.
The five newly born energies were fast and unhindered by the body’s original energy; they dissipated almost as soon as they appeared.
He Ao’s thought processes seemed insufficient to guide these energies simultaneously.
In just a second or two, much of these energies had disappeared.
Without hesitation,
Super Memory, burst!
The powerful cognitive enhancement from Super Memory allowed him to guide the five energies and irrigate the five corresponding internal organs simultaneously.
He was beginning to understand that the fourth page of the small book was guiding him to nourish the body’s ‘Five Organs’ with the generated ‘Five Elements’ energies; the first three pages trained the limbs and trunk, the fourth trained the internal organs.
As the Five Elements energies entered his body, He Ao felt his soul being nourished and growing, but this growth was quickly consumed by Super Memory.
It took about ten seconds for He Ao to infuse all the Five Elements energies into his internal organs.
Although the latter soul nourishment offset 40% of Super Memory’s consumption, objects in his vision still showed a brief shake, accompanied by a slight dizziness.
However, this was much better than when he first started Life Consuming.
At this moment, he sensed the state within his body again.
The energy in his chest cavity had completely disappeared, and the energy that had begun to overflow in his body was compressed by the pressure that had just erupted.
Those strong muscles once again revealed a dried-up appearance.
As he breathed in new energy, these muscles began to absorb new energy.
The internal organs subtly felt different, but he couldn’t detect exactly what the difference was.
Perhaps the digestive ability had become stronger.
And that bottleneck that had always been blocking his way seemed to have vanished.
He Ao opened his personal attribute panel.
[He Ao (Regit)]
[Access Level: Ordinary Player]
[Physical Fitness: 16 (59)]
[Skills: Talent Sequences 272: Super Memory (Soul Bound) (E Rank), Basic Firearms Mastery (Soul Part)]
[Mechanical Modification: None]
[Martial Arts: Qi Induction (F Rank) (Inoperative)]
[Character Ability: Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation (E Rank)]
His physical fitness surged by 9 points, jumping from 50 to 59, and his character ability changed from ‘Qi Induction (F Rank)’ to ‘Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation (E Rank)’.
He Ao felt that practicing martial arts was still quite dangerous.
After all, the pressure and pain during the breakthrough process made it difficult for ordinary Martial Arts F Rank to endure, and they might have died right there.
Of course, it was also possible that his method of breakthrough was rather extreme—indeed, it was a possibility.
But He Ao thought that his method was the quickest and most straightforward way to breakthrough; besides being very painful and possibly fatal, it had no other drawbacks.
After entering E Rank, the world changed.
Ordinary people could still touch the threshold of F Rank with training, but unless they underwent Mechanical Modification, they were unlikely to reach E Rank.
E Rank was the Transcendent Domain, and from when He Ao started practicing after his wound began to heal to the rise of Dawn City’s light, it hadn’t been twenty-four hours yet.
In a single day, he entered the Transcendent Domain on the spot.
Decades of Regit’s accumulation erupted overnight.
Half a life floating like golden scales, transforming into a dragon at the encounter with the storm.
He Ao took a deep breath, dressed his wound quickly, and changed his clothes.
E Rank was just the beginning of being Transcendent.
He opened the door to his room, went downstairs empty-handed, and left his home.
About half an hour later,
a dark figure arrived at the door of the house, skillfully cracked the lock, and entered the apartment.
He first looked around before starting to rummage through boxes and drawers.
“Are you looking for this?”
A plastic bag with the Dawn City Library logo was held up in front of him.
