Chapter 26: Training suit
Have you ever had one of those monts where you thought to yourself that you should have shut your mouth?
These past days there wasn't a mont that I didn't tell myself that I shouldn't have told the grandpa to train 'now that I gain more benefits' or sothing…
Grandpa Long would train Li Huang so hard that I didn't think that there is a higher level to that training, but apparently, I was wrong.
The intensity of this training was so much that I wished for the past training to co back. I think that explains the level of shit that I went through.
You might think that I'm being a drama queen but let tell you a bit about past days so that you know that my words are true…
Grandpa Long who was happy that I could train more went and made so preparations. After he ca back he had a suit that was like one of those latex suits, if you know what I an…
The mont I saw it I took out my defensive treasures out and got in a fighting stance.
"Don't take another step. What the hell is that in your hand?" I asked him sternly. I didn't want to have anything to do with that unholy thing and more so when the other person is also a male. I am as straight as Ed Sheeran is white.
"What the hell is wrong with you? This is a training suit." Grandpa Long was looking at to check if I have hit my head sowhere.
I was dumbfounded. Why the hell did they create it this way.
"I have you know that I would put on my robes on them…" I told him to reassure myself but it backfired.
"Even if you didn't I would beat you until you put them on." He looked at with disgust on his face.
"Hey, it was you who brought this unholy suit here, don't look at that way!" I snatched the suit and went into the room and put it on.
After putting my robes on them I got out of the room.
"By the way, you didn't tell , why do I even have to put these on?" I asked grandpa Long.
Grandpa Long just smiled and gestured to start my spar with him.
At that ti I shrugged it off, but I should have known better.
The suit was one of the most expensive training equipnt in the world, if not the most expensive one.
The reason for it, is because of the runes that are carved on it. This suit can apply healing potions to the area that was hit and help you heal faster in training. You must be thinking that this was so kind of grandpa Long to do this, but let remind you that he is the devil.
He didn't put healing liquid in the suit's storage. No, he put the herbal mix so that each ti he hits I get a dose of the mix on my skin that would strengthen my body but also would give a shit load of pain.
Why didn't he give this suit to from the beginning? Well, absorbing the herbal mix takes ti, this is the reason that they use it in baths, where you can take your ti. But as I have the special physique that Li Bao had, I can absorb it very fast and my genius (read psychopath) grandpa thought of this thod to let absorb it passively.
But there was a small thing that he didn't consider. This fucking hurts. I an how the fuck am I to fight in this situation?
The first day I was just thrown away like I was a dodgeball ball. I couldn't do shit when my whole body was in pain.
On the second day, training started at 4 AM and my daily routine was changed to train, train, and train so more.
On the second day, I could at least control the trajectory of getting thrown left and right. I was in such pain that even grandpa Long was second-guessing his training regi.
Unfortunately for , I couldn't get away from this training because he found out that this training is effective. How? Well, my sorry ass broke through to the ninth stage of the Qi Gathering.
I would have never thought that I could be this heartbroken about sothing that others would celebrate.
Seeing that his thod is working, grandpa Long continued my training and unbeknown to he was adding more herbal mix to the liquid that would be applied to my skin.
Days passed and it was the fifth day. I think I have aged 50 years in these past days. The only high point in these is that I am not getting thrown away all the ti now. I can defend myself in so of the attacks.
Of course, it is not like grandpa Long is using all his power. This is but a fraction of his powers but I can say that my technique has improved in this short ti.
My improvents are also another factor that made this possible. As my cultivation stage is in the nervous system part, my reaction speed is improving exponentially and I can react to grandpa Long attacks faster and better.
As the day was about to end I felt that I am about to get past a bottleneck. I was so close to the ridian Formation realm on this day that I could sll it.
When I felt that I am about to break through, I sat on the ground cross-legged. Although it was in the middle of our spar, I know that an old monster like grandpa Long could easily see that I am about to break through so he would stop the spar.
I wasn't wrong. Not only he stopped his move but also activated an isolation formation so that no one can interfere with even spiritual sense and hindrance my breakthrough.
He also activated a Qi gathering formation so that I can get more Qi in the shortest of tis. Because we were fighting my Qi was not sothing that could be said to be in a good state so I sucked the Qi into my body greedily.
I could feel most of the Qi in my pathways for the first ti, with this level of clarity. This was a sign that I am infinitely close to the ridian Formation realm.
This is the realm where you have to create, or in better terms stabilize your ridians first and foremost and after that use them to make an internal formation that could help you in the future.
Stabilizing the ridians could be only done in this realm so you have to try to open the most that you can from your 108 ridians and use them to create a formation. The more ridians that you open, the more options you have for the internal formation.
The formations are created by strengthening the pathways between the ridians. They can act for defense, offense, Qi gathering, and many more things if you have enough stable ridians.
At this mont I could feel one of the ridians in my body. I tried to stabilize it but that is not sothing easy as you might think. The Qi is flowing in my body and I have to keep the size and form of the ridian stable for a period of ti so that it take form and beco a 'stable ridian'.
Minutes passed and beads of sweat gathered on my brow. But I didn't give up, if I fail this ti, it would lead to so backslashes that, I don't have the ti to be struggling with.
Suddenly I had a stroke of inspiration.
Using other pathways in my body I let a violent stream of Qi toward my palms. This way two orbs of Qi gathered on top of my palms. When the violent stream was controlled this way a steady stream of Qi was going in and out of my ridian so I could easily handle it and soon my first ridian was stabilized.
Opening my eyes, I saw grandpa Long looking at .
"Old man, I think I deserve a vacation." I told him with a smile.
