Six years flashed past with immense speed and the Skyblue town was very bustling today because this particular day was the day all the children at the age of twelve will be inducted into their first cultivation ceremony.
The induction ceremony was extremely important to the town because it was where the various cultivation talents of the young children could be discovered and the appearance of a supreme talent could attract powerful sects from the nearby areas . If that particular child is lucky to be valued by such a sect then the status of the town will be greatly elevated. The children taking part in the induction ceremony can not pass the age of twelve because it was at this certain age that the meridian point will manifest but that did not mean that one can not cultivate before or after the age of twelve. ***** The town's training ground was vast , spanning hundreds of meters and within the training ground , different stacks containing different mortal weapons could be seen here and there. In another part of the training ground , wooden puppets which were used for combat training could be seen in all shapes and sizes. At the rear of the training ground , large iron balls which served the purpose of extreme body tempering could be seen hovering in the air from the fixed pulley like instrument and they shone with vicious light , making the nearby children gulp with immense nervousness as they wondered how people could train with such huge monsters. "Aina , can you stop being so clingy ?". Amon said with exasperation as he looked at Aina who was holding his left hand without the intention of letting go at all. Her body was completely pressed towards the body of Amon as she completely clung to him. These past six years brought alot of physical changes to the body of Amon. Due to the presence of spiritual energy, the children experience rapid development in terms of their physical traits. The current Amon although still a twelve year old boy already had a height of 5 'feet plus and the most of his baby fats were completely gone and his face became more refined and pronounced. His jawline became more angular and his long black hair was tied in a ponytail style. His black eyes seemed to have become darker and was glistening like a pair of precious rubies. Two cross like ear rings could be seen on both of his ears and they added a mysterious charm to his good looking face , making him appear devilishly handsome. Many young girls in the training ground were sneakily admiring him much to the displeasure of Aina . "Humph , I don't want anyone to snatch you away from me ". Aina who also had a drastic change in terms of physical appearance snorted softly and gripped his hand with more force. She was already showing signs of becoming a very beautiful girl and her emerald eyes shone with vigilance as she glanced at the surrounding girls with hostility. In her eyes , they were obviously trying snatch away her big brother from her. Although Amon was not her biological brother , she was very attached to him since they practically grew up together.Amon who saw this scene sighed with helplessness . Aina was very protective and did not allow any girl to come close to him. "Amon , Aina , are you both listening to my explanations ?". The instructor who was a tall burly man with bulging muscles shouted from the front when he spotted them arguing. "Yes , Grandmaster Seamus !! ". Amon and Aina chorused together as they both looked at the front with all seriousness. The man referred to as grandmaster Seamus looked at the two misbehaving brats for a while before he continued in his speech about cultivation. Seamus was the strongest cultivator in the Skyblue town and was rumoured to be at the peak of the spirit refinement realm. "The human body contains one hundred and two meridian energy points which serves as passage for the spiritual energy to enter our body . In order to start cultivating and officially become a body refining expert , one need to open the meridian energy points. The higher the number of meridian energy points opened , the higher your potential . If you open less than ten meridian energy points , then you are destined to be struck in the body refining realm for the rest of your life because the low meridian energy points can not withstand the massive spiritual energy needed for the breakthrough of the next realm". Seamus said with a solemn expression. The expression of the young children instantly changed as they became extremely nervous . The words of Seamus made them to fear an explicable fear. Remaining in the body refining realm forever was a nightmare for anyone and no one wanted to become a mediocre cultivator. The average life expectancy of a body refining cultivator was just two hundred years and the spirit refinement realm which was just above it was just five hundred years. "I hope someone with over forty meridian energy points opened will appear in this batch". Seamus looked at the various children with a hint of expectancy in his eyes. The appearance of such talent will instantly elevate the status of the town but it was easier said than done . The probability of such talent appearing was extremely low ."Okay everyone , sit cross legged and follow my instructions". Seamus clapped his two hands slightly and the various children immediately took their positions . "Calm your heart and empty your mind ". Seamus said slowly as he walked around and adjusted the posture of many children . "First of all , you must sense ....hey ! , Adrian shut up and close your eyes ". Seamus glared at one of the children who was playfully pinching his friend beside him. The child who was called shivered slightly with fright and hurriedly closed his eyes. "Like I was saying , you must sense your energy meridian points before you start guarding the surrounding spiritual energy through those passages ". The loud voice of Seamus could be heard in the training ground as he instructed the children. Everywhere became very quiet as many children tried to sense their various meridian energy points . "Strange , why is my own meridian energy points three hundred and sixty ". Amon who immediately sensed his meridian energy points frowned slightly and said. The current situation stumped him and he did not know what to do.According to the explanation of the Grandmaster , the human body had one hundred and two meridian energy points which was used for the circulation of spiritual energy. Instead of having the usual number of the meridian energy points, he had three hundred and sixty. He could sense three hundred and sixty spots of lights that looked like resplendent stars in his inner body. Amon wondered whether there was anything that was wrong with his body . He wanted to call out to the Grandmaster but he hesitated for a moment before he gave up the idea. Despite being so young , he possessed wisdom that was not weaker than that of an adult. What if he was regarded as a monster for possessing such number of meridian energy points and was dissected because of it. Maybe , the number of his meridian energy points might actually mean that he had an incredible talent in cultivation and him exposing it might bring him countless of benefits . The wealth of a man is his downfall ! , he knew the
More black liquid were excreted from the body of Amon and very soon , his whole body was covered in those liquid which gave out a very disgusting smell that made many children to distance themselves from the place Amon was cultivating. Washing of the bone marrow and the excretion of waste products ! . This were the signs of a successful advancement to the body refining stage. This stage of cultivation allows one to temper his body and excrete all the waste products that are inherent in the body system . The spiritual energy that Amon absorbed was traveling through the meridian energy points, tempering all his inner organs . His liver , heart , kidney and other organs were completely tempered and their Constitution completely changed from it's mortal status. The absorbed spiritual energy modified the various organs in such a way that transcended the mortal limits. In the body refining realm, one can go a week without eating anything and still survive. Even the waste produ
"Damn ! , that man is really brutal !!". Amon complained loudly as he walked towards his house with grievance written all over his face. He was currently topless and long lines of sweat was running down from his forehead to his chest. His long black was wet and was sticking to the forehead. His long black trousers were covered with smudges of dirt and his long black boots had dust and grim all over it. After his progress to the body refining realm in the morning , he proceeded to wash the excreted black substance off his body and was them summoned by the grandmaster to the training ground . In the name of consolidating his newly promoted cultivation , the grandmaster had to subject his to several degrees of torturous methods. Huge iron balls smashed into his body , he was soaked in a hot herbal liquid , he was ordered to punch a wooden puppet a thousand times. Amon doubted whether an average first layer body refining realm cultivator would have actually survived those horri
After the induction ceremony , the news of Amon opening fifthy five meridian energy points immediately spread throughout the whole town and Amon was quickly tagged a peerless genius . No one with such number of opened meridian energy points have appeared in the town before so the appearance of Amon caused a huge commotion . It couldn't be helped because Amon was destined to become a powerhouse at the core formation or above stage in the future providing that nothing happens to him. The town only had peak spirit refinement powerhouses as their top experts and if Amon eventually advances above the spirit refinement realm , the town will inevitably have another backer. Apart from that , the chances of him entering a top rated sect was incredibly high and the town will benefit immensely if he succeeds in entering such a sect. Aina was another phenomenal genius that opened fifthy meridian energy points. Although inferior to Amon , was still regarded as a genius level figure. T
Rudger erupted with more terrifying speed and let series of punches which turned into several afterimages and bombarded Amon. Amon calmly dodged all the punches and not even one could touch his cloth. It was as if he could predict the trajectory of the punch. The various children were all amazed at the reaction speed of Amon and the outcome of the fight immediately became unpredictable because of the prowess Amon had shown so far. "Do you only know how to dodge like a coward". Rudger who was getting frustrated because of all his missed attacks taunted Amon. "Initially , I did not want to defeat so badly because it might hurt your ego but now , I have changed my mind ". Amon said slowly as he decided not to hold back anymore. "Baseless boasting !!". Rudger sneered while punching out again with fierce momentum . A loud booming sound echoed in the air as the force of the punch smashed towards the face of Amon with terrifying might. If such punch lands unhindered , Amon migh
High mountain Range was the name of the forest region that many demonic beasts dwells in. The length of the forest was extremely large that it ran across the entire sage domain , spanning an unimaginable length. It was rumoured that beasts with immortal bloodline resided there and they had the battle prowess of immortals . The high mountain Range was one of the forbidden places in the sage domain. The danger in the place was extremely high because demonic beasts dominated the whole place and the humans have never been at good terms with the demonic beasts. Many years ago , before the rise of the sage empire , the demonic beasts in the high mountain Range ran rampant in the entire domain and countless of lives were lost . The demonic beasts dominated that era and no human powerhouse could stand up to them at all. Aside from their terrifying cultivations, the outstanding bloodline of the demonic beasts gave them certain advantages over a regular human powerhouse at the same le
One of the characteristics of spirit refinement cultivators is their ability to connect to the surrounding spiritual energies and make use of it to attack. They control the spiritual energies at a minimum level and can use it to form different weapons for attacking and also they can project spirit aura which can render a body refining cultivator powerless. Amon who narrowly dodged the previous attack immediately became very cautious. He might have more punching force but before spiritual energy attacks , he was still lacking. Swoosh !! the figure of Amon blurred as he changed to another direction and rushed off with immense speed. Boooom!! boooom!! boooom!! spiritual energy balls kept smashing down from the sky and Amon had to change directions for several times in order to get hit by one. The various attacks devastated the environment and the surrounding demonic beasts who were just at the body refining realm all fled from the environment. Thump !! thump !! thump !! the
"Uhhhhh !!! ". Amon groaned softly as he opened his drowsy eyes. He instinctively moved his left hand and was shocked to discover that he could actually move it. He immediately start up from the ground and looked at his body with suprise. "What actually happened ?" . Amon was very shocked to discover that all the injuries in his body have actually disappeared and he was feeling very energetic. "My cultivation !!!". Amon who circulated his cultivation base actually discovered that he had unknowingly advanced to the seventh layer of the body refining realm silently. It means that he had advanced four layers at once and he was extremely shocked ! . Amon glanced around with vigilance and discovered that he was in a place that was covered with a hazzy purple light. He was in a middle of a narrow path that was surrounded by Mythical flowing purple light that formed massive pillars at both sides. Even the sky was covered with purple light and was not visible at all. It was as
