Because there is no sun, people are starting to loss of sense of time. Even though there are clocks can show the exact date and time, but can you differentiate the daytime and nighttime now?
now every second, every minute is night time.
So since the red shell insect started to appear, people started to only use the 24-hour clock, scrapped 12-hour clock which used to determine daytime and nighttime.
The entrance door of building No.8 was destroyed by the red shell insect. No one was repairing it.
Gradually people started to moving into building no.8 from other blocks，at 20:00 clock, through the peephole chu yun sheng noticed that the stairs landing area outside his flats were filled with people who were here looking for shelter. It seemed that only this building is the only safe place to stay. It starts to get more and more people, about 2 hours later, someone knocks on chu yun sheng’s door.
Chu yun sheng does not want to open the door. He could only take care of himself. The life and death battle he fought a few hours ago taught him that, if he wants to survive in this place where the insects can come out at any time, he needs to hurry up practise yuan qi.
Just these two days, he understood few other symbols on the book, he discovered that his yuan qi level is at “yuan tian stage one”. This level is just beginner’s level, not only he could not store a large amount of yuan qi in his body, but also he is limited to few yuan fu and incantations.
He relies on fu and incantation to save his life. He is not like others people who are self-awakening, those people are extremely tableted, although they are limited to have only one element such as frost, fire and other elements. There are a lot of categories explained in the book. but they can use their power straight away without any medium, it is like some kind of incantations were already sealed inside their body.
The ice punch man was a great example, just an ordinary punch could unleash the frost power. This is something chu could not do. He belongs a class which requires him to practice by using the original qi cultivation methods that mentioned in the book. According to the book, if he could reach the yuan tian stage three, then he does not need those mediums, and later on, if he learned combat skill sets that mentioned in the book, it will be much more powerful if he uses yuan fu and combat skill sets together.
But for now, he still needs those yuan fu in order to unleash the power. On the plus side he gets to experience different type of elements, and with the help of yuan fu, they are as powerful as self-awakening abilities, at the moment he could barely make some level two yuan fu, if he wants to make level three yuan fu, then he has to reach yuan tian stage two as soon as possible.
level three yuan fu can be repeatedly used. It is not like the low-level yuan fu that chu yun sheng has right now. Every time when yuan qi wasn’t enough, he has to replace with new one. It is not complicated to reach yuan tian stage two from yuan tian stage one, according to the book ，all he needs to do is drain the yuan qi inside the body, then restore. Repeating the process for eighty-one times, let yuan qi go through and strengthen the channel inside his body. Then after eighty-one times, he will reach yuan tian stage two automatically.
But the way he was practising was too slow. It was like a snail, although apart from eating and sleeping, he used every single second he had to practise yuan qi. But yuan qi’s concentration is only slowly increased. with this kind of speed, he needs to spend almost 8 or 9 days to fully restore yuan qi. If it does not count the time to drain the yuan qi inside his body, he needs to spend almost two years in order to get to yuan tian stage two.
Two years? If it was in the age of light, of course, he does not mind at all. But now the dangers are everywhere. He almost died when he tried to kill three red shell insect, what if he encountered 50 of them, just like what was happened a few hours ago, he does not even have a chance to escape. Two years time, those monsters could kill him so many times. He has to find a better way to practice. Otherwise even he got this powerful ancient book, he still will be dead soon.
He took out the book, turned the pages back and forth trying to learn something. He believes that there is definitely a better way mentioned in the book. It was just that he knew too few symbols. that is why he could not find it.
“It must be there, it must be there” chu yun sheng was trying so hard, he found few things he thought could be related to yuan qi cultivation, but he failed every time. It only left one incantation called “she yuan fu”(absorption yuan fu) chu yun sheng was not sure about the use of this fu, although he knew those three symbols individually, but he could only read one-third of its description. Luckily he could read the symbols that explained how to make this yuan fu.
This yuan fu is a level two yuan fu, he has to use all his yuan qi to make it, he already used half of his yuan qi while testing other yuan fu, even he wants to make it now, he still need to wait for another 4 days, until he fully restored his yuan qi.
During these four days, when he felt tired, he would take out crossbow and practise shooting skill. Yuan qi is very important to him now, he could not afford to miss the target, that why he needs to improve his accuracy. After four days practice, also with the help of “six armour yuan fu”1, he is confident that he could hit a target within 30 meters，provided that the targets are not moving. After all, the ability to shoot moving objects can not be trained overnight, it is more important to have the experiences.
Four days later, he finally completed the “she yuan fu”. but when he tried to use it, he starts to have some problem, no matter how chu was trying to activate it, it just does not absorb the yuan qi. After struggled for a long time. He suddenly had an idea, since the yuan fu can not absorb the world original qi, how about let it absorbs the yuan qi that is already purified in his body. When he just about to give it a try, he was frustrated to find out that yuan qi inside his body was exhausted, he could not test it.
But then he immediately thought of red shell insect, that monster has a light red shield, it was definitely caused by the world original qi, it also means that it definitely had yuan qi inside his body.
Chu yun sheng quickly takes out the monster’s body he stored inside storage yuan fu, started to activate yuan fu.
As he expected, the yuan fu shoots out a white beam at monster’s body, then he saw a streak of milky-like cloud flew toward yuan fu，it took him just 10 seconds, the white beam returned to yuan fu after it completed the absorption. Chu yun sheng took a close look at yuan fu. there is a flame pattern on the surface of yuan fu . It almost covers ⅙ of its space.
Chu yunsheng guesses, it could be the yuan qi with fire element from red shell insect. But when he just about to stores the she (absorption) yuan fu, he was surprised to find that when he sensed the she yuan fu, it caused she yuan fu starts to pass yuan qi directly to his body. Of course, he could stop it, but he did not, he wanted to see what would happen, the whole process was twice slower than when it absorbed the yuan qi from red shell insect.！ almost spend 20 seconds. After the flame pattern disappeared, yuan fu was torn into pieces.
Level two yuan fu is also a disposable yuan fu, but he was not upset when the yuan fu was torn, instead he is excited almost scream it out loud, he can clearly feel that he has restored one-third of his yuan qi, this is amount of yuan qi he needs to spend three days to restore.
how could he not be excited right now? Some yuan qi from One red shell insect might be lost during transfer but even then it still restored ⅓ of his yuan qi. That means that if he had three monsters body, then he could fully restore his yuan qi. He does not need to spend 8 or 9 days to do it.
He immediately emerges a new plan, which he has been looking for few days. He needs to make one she yuan fu first, then spend 8 days to restored yuan qi, at the moment he could shoot 6 frost arrows when his yuan qi is fully restored, that means if he did not miss any target, he is able to freeze six monsters, and while the monster is frozen, it can not activates shield. chu yun sheng can find another way to kill it. Then finally use she yuan fu to absorb yuan qi from six monsters
The she yuan fu chu yun sheng tested was a disposable yuan fu, it was torn because it unleashed all the yuan qi stored in there, same as the other type of disposable yuan fu once it is used, no matter how much yuan qi was used, it can not be replenished again. So chu yun sheng has to maximise she yuan fu usages. He has to use she yuan fu absorb the yun qi fully and then used it twice, each time it will restore his yuan qi fully. Theoretically, If he continues this way he has to kill 243 red shell insects before he could reach yuan tian stage two. then he will be able to make the level three yuan fu, and he will not be needing those calculations anymore.
