Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 21: 21. Transcendent Foundation



All the dark red clouds also disappeared, and the whole world returned to peace.

All the things that happened until now seem to be illusions. A lot of people were confused about this sudden change.

But the most confused ones were emperor-tier families and sects since they knew the reason for the appearance of lightning. They were confused about its sudden disappearance without doing anything to the target.

While the whole outside world was guessing the situation, Kai was the one who caused all of this sleeping inside the cocoon.

The same gray energy appeared around him and got inside his body. But this time the energy did not go towards any organs; instead, it went to the meridians in the body.

The meridians were a fragile part of the body, but they had very important functions. It transports the energy inside the body, and even an attack performed by a cultivator is done through the meridians.

A person can still do all the things without meridians, but the efficiency will be very low. The meridian tempering is not included in the body tempering stage because tempering the meridian in the mortal realm is seeking death for yourself.

It is very fragile and will break immediately if handled without care.

However, the energy did not care about any of the consequences and started destroying the whole meridian structure.

It did not disintegrate the meridians like previous organs; instead, it totally erased them, but after a few moments, it formed new strange meridians around him, and it even connected to his vital organs.

Then the energy got inside the head and heart, but this time it did not move towards the brain; instead, it moved to the neurons in the brain and inside the heart.

Neurons are nerve cells that send information all over the body to do everything from breathing to talking, eating, and even thinking.

Neurons release brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters, which generate these electrical signals in neighboring neurons. The electrical signals propagate like a wave to thousands of neurons, which leads to thought formation.

The thought, or Will power, is produced by the neurons, and it is very important to the early stages of the Will path.

For the heart, willpower is not only produced in the brain but also provided by the heart. We call it the heart\'s voice or the inside voice.

Then the energy tempered all the neurons inside the brain by disintegrating and reforming them. The whole process happened nine times, and it moved towards the heart and merged with it.

"It is really good to experience metamorphosis, and this time I did not even feel the pain."

This time, the process had brought Kai so much benefit. His meridians have completely evolved into something entirely different, and they cannot be called simple meridians anymore.

It was more like a complex circuit that operates in a certain direction. If he develops the meridians in the correct direction, they have the chance to change into something new.

The next benefit is the change in neurons; it made his speed of thinking like a supercomputer. He also obtained an ability similar to parallel thinking. With this ability, Kai can do a lot of things at the same time. For now, Kai can do three things at the same time.

"Maybe I should try achieving 100 percent purity." Kai thought to himself since his physical strength increased a lot during this metamorphosis. Although a perfect foundation is very good and only a few people can achieve it, Kai wants to try to reach the 13th layer.

Kai tried to refine the Qi, but he couldn\'t refine it. He directly encountered the bottleneck, and he only needed to break it through for the transcendent foundation. It seems there is nothing to refine.

Then Kai tried hitting the bottleneck, but he couldn\'t even touch them through his Qi. It looks very simple, like fragile paper, but strength cannot be judged by looks. This barrier is actively repelling him, and he can\'t even reach it.

Kai started fighting with them for a long time, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not hit them. It was like water; it evaded Kai from every single angle.

"I don\'t know how much time was wasted on this; I did not even process a single bit. Maybe this is the hurdle I need to cross."

After thinking so hard, Kai changed his approach a little. Instead of using brute force to break through, he tried other methods. Kai added soul power to the Qi and tried hitting them, but the result was the same.

Then he used the elemental energy; he absorbed it from the surroundings and used it to hit them, but the result was the same. He even fused the energy into incomplete chaos energy and hit them, but still, the results were the same disappointment.

"It is not working; what is the thing I am lacking?" Kai thought doubtfully.

He knew his approach should be correct; the barrier cannot be broken by force; instead, it focuses on other things and needs something special to break through. With this idea, Kai thought about something special about him.

"Why did I not think about this? I always had the answer right inside my head."

The will path is his specialty, and it is also his creation. The first ability in the will manifestation realm is manifestation, and the function of ability is self-explanatory.

With this sudden idea, Kai tried adding willpower to his qi, and this time the barrier did not move away or avoid him. It just broke with a single touch.

"It is very easy; I should have used this method at the start." Kai thought, but he was surprised by the sudden change.

The moment he broke the barrier, the whole secret realm started to shake, and it even started to shrink in size, but it stopped shrinking in a few moments, and all the energy formed a cocoon around him. Kai fainted again inside the cocoon.

General POV

In an unknown place that was filled with dead bodies and blood. The blood is already flowing like a river, and there are also screams of the soul that seem to be in agony. It looks like the legendary hell, but it is not.

This place is scarier than hell, and it is one of the most mysterious places in all of heaven and earth.

In such a place, a being is sitting quietly in a meditative position with its eyes closed. This being seems to be genderless, and he also looks like a combination of both male and female, so it is more appropriate to say that being is genderless and that being suddenly opened its eyes.

"So, true perfection does exist," he muttered. After saying that he looked in a certain direction. His eyes completely ignored the concept of spacetime and directly looked at a small planet. The small planet is Enlightenment World, and he directly looked at Kai.

"Such a tiny place is capable of producing perfection; there must be something special about this place," he muttered in a genderless, weird voice.

Then he used his eyes to see through Kai, but he was interrupted, and all the things became like shadows.

"There is someone capable of blocking my vision in such a tiny place. I think I need to treat this with caution. A person capable of achieving true perfection must have something special," the speaker said without any emotion.

Then the being waved its hand, and a small amount of energy tried to infiltrate the Enlightenment World. The Heavenly Dao of the Enlightenment World wanted to resist it, but it was not able to compete with this energy, and the energy easily bypassed the defense and merged with the world.

Kai is still unaware that a powerful being is targeting him because of his true, perfect foundation.

This time, the metamorphosis process took a lot of time. Kai woke up naked again in the grass field.

"I should make an untearable cloth first." Being naked is very uncomfortable, thought Kai. Even though he is alone, he is not an exhibitionist.

The result of the process is very pleasing to Kai. It did not increase his strength or anything, but it increased his bloodline level and my Qi.

In the previous two metamorphosis processes, a lot of the remaining energy just merged with Kai\'s blood, and in this process, the remaining energy also merged with my blood. After obtaining enough energy, it appears that his bloodline has evolved.

But Kai does not have bloodline ability for now; he needs to create them on his own.

Kai did not care about creating his abilities since he could just create something suitable for him. The real benefit of a transcendent foundation is that the Qi inside his body completely belongs to him.

Transcendent Foundation is the name that Kai gave. He wanted to name it true perfection, but this foundation is more than perfect, so he just named it a transcendent foundation.

For the Qi being completely belonging to him, it is just the literal meaning. A powerful cultivator can easily suppress the Qi of a weak cultivator with just their thoughts, given that the gap is really big. There is also some poisonous medicine that is capable of sealing Qi.

But now that won\'t work on Kai; even a very powerful cultivator can\'t seal or block his Qi unless he wants the same. But such a person is capable of killing Kai a hundred times within a second. So this ability is really useful for him in a critical situation.

\'Now, it is time for me to see my parents and think about executing my next plan.\' thought Kai as he left the secret realm.
