The qi that Ryu breathed into his body was incredibly pure. If it wasn't already enough that the Immortal Path was innately blemishless, even if it wasn't, his Ice Jade Crystal Bone structure wouldn't allow impurities to last very long. Due to this, Ryu didn't have to spend much ti, if any at all, cleansing the energy he inhaled.
If one could see the inside of Ryu's ridians, they'd be absolute shocked. They'd assu he was an individual who had completed at least two Revolutions already, when the reality was that he had yet to complete even one. This was the difference between those with talent and those without.
Ryu worked quickly, after converting all of his Qi Fus into a sort of prir energy for Mortal Qi, he begun circulating [Revolutions Amplifier] in earnest. The route was incredibly complex, even Ryu felt like his head was spinning, so he took the first cycle incredibly slowly, etching the pattern into his mind.
The main difference between One Star and Six Star techniques was the complexity of their circulations. One Star techniques can only make use of a single Qi Pulse, and as such, their circulation pattern is appropriately simple. However, Six Star techniques must cycle through all six Qi Pulses, thus aning that they must be appropriately complex.
With every Qi Pulse a cultivator opens, nurous novel ridian nodes and ridian pathways open as well. This was the fundantal difference between those who opened more Qi Pulses and those who opened less. This difference in foundation would only compound.
Still, even with Ryu taking his ti for his first circulation, he completed it in just half an hour. Just like this, after completing just a single circulation, the sound of a cracking barrier resounded. Ryu felt a rush of Essence careen toward himself, seeping into his skin, muscles and bones.
Ryu panicked. If he broke through now, wouldn't that an he would have to given up on [Six Realm Opening] and [Abyssal Vortex Qi]? In the end, he was too inexperienced in cultivation. He hadn't even considered this problem before he began.
'There are only two ways to fix this, either abolish my cultivation, or compensate with speed!'
Ryu didn't hesitate. Abolishing his own cultivation was sothing he was unwilling to do, naly because he was unsure if there were consequences to such an undertaking. He had just been taught a lesson about his own inexperience, so how could he make another rash decision so quickly?
[Six Realm Opening] was definitely the easier of the two to complete with speed. Its appeal was tied in the opening of miniature dantian within the Qi Pulses. However, they only needed to be opened one at a ti. One should be opened before entering the Qi Refinent Realm, then there would be one opened for each of the four stages of the realm, and finally, the last would be opened upon completing the Great Circle Refinent.
'No, I should complete [Abyssal Vortex Qi] first.' Ryu was in a race against ti. He slowed the process of his breakthrough, he knew he would face backlash if he stopped it completely. From his quick calculations, he would officially beco a Qi Refinent expert in less than ten minutes. Normally individuals would be ecstatic at this short tifra. But, at the mont, Ryu's talent was his own Hell.
[Abyssal Vortex Qi] was a bit different from normal techniques. It didn't rely on complex circulations, relatively speaking. Instead, it ford miniature vortexes of qi within ridian nodes. It then relied on these vortexes as centers of power. Not only did they allow one to store more energy in a more compact way, it also allowed cultivation speed to increase thanks to the unique suction abilities of the vortex.
The issue was that this technique required mind numbing amounts of qi control. One needed to create and stabilize hundreds of vortexes. Even the lowest estimates would still have a person needing several hours to reach equilibrium. But Ryu had ten minutes!
Ryu grit his teeth. It was ti to see just how reliable his Chaotic Silk ridians were. He didn't have the ti to take it slowly like everyone else. He would be rash. He could only hope that his ridians could withstand the failures that would undoubtedly occur.
With a thought, he began. The ridians nodes he had to date totaled 333. One was born with 111, and 37 more were opened for every Qi Pulse that was awakened. In order to complete the foundation of this technique, Ryu needed to form 111 vortexes plus 37 more.
The prir qi within Ryu's body began to spin viciously. This was when Ryu learned the horror of what he was attempting. In the beginning, he called the circulation thod of [Abyssal Vortex Qi] simple. From an objective point of view, it was. However, that was only if you created one vortex at a ti.
For the creation of every vortex, there would be a small circulation pattern around a single ridian node. After a few circulations, the vortex would be created and stabilized, you could then move on to the next circulation. However, with Ryu's ti constraints, he was attempting to form multiple vortexes at once. Suddenly, those simple patterns began to overlap and complicated matters within the 3D structure of Ryu's body. Things only beca worse when Ryu realized that so circulation patterns overlapped.
However, Ryu soon saw that even when he failed and his energy exploded within his body, despite so painful bloating, he felt nothing else at all. This realization made him more brazen. At first, he only attempted to form two vortexes at once, but then it beca three, then four. Eventually, he was creating ten at once, and his proficiency was only growing as he familiarized himself with the Qi Technique.
Ryu's body beca a battlefield. Sotis, blood would flow from his lips and crimson would erupt from old wounds. This couldn't be helped. Though his ridians were nigh indestructible, they were still attached to his far more vulnerable inner organs and muscles. But, he continued to push him.
A maddened light shone in Ryu's eyes once more. He could feel the barrier between himself and the Qi Refinent Realm crumbling more and more with each passing mont.
'It's not enough!' Ryu's qi circulation beca faster and faster. He didn't need experience to know that even a big mistake along the complex paths of his ridians would end his life. Chaotic Silk ridians or not, cultivation deviation wasn't sothing many could survive. However, Ryu didn't seem to care as he imdiately began practicing [Six Realm Opening] even while still circulating [Abyssal Vortex Qi].
What Ryu didn't notice at this ti was just how much easier it had beco for him to split his mind between multiple tasks. If he had, he would have checked his ntal Realm to find a shocking change had occurred while he slept.
Ryu roared out as he completely opened his first Pulse Dantian. Completion of the foundation of a second Six Star technique didn't give him any relief. In fact, now that he had set two perfect foundations, his breakthrough had quickened! But, Ryu still smiled. Because at that mont, his 148th vortex was ford.
