Path of Absolute Transcendence

It took him a day to become familiar with the sudden increase in strength.

Kai positioned himself in front of a large rock and punched it with full force; the rock shattered due to his strength.

\'I am basically a Superhuman now.\' Kai muttered in satisfaction.

He also had the idea that he wanted to try it in the body-tempering realm before moving on to the next realm. If a person wants to have a strong foundation, it is necessary to have a strong body. But Kai thought that the soul would also increase the strength of the body.

The foundational establishment realm cultivator starts refining their qi and compressing it to make it stronger. The maximum number of compressions is directly proportional to the strength of the body. A strong soul can also bear the pressure to increase the number of compressions.

So, he thought like that.

But the tempering won\'t increase the strength of his soul since his soul is already stronger than his body. Both the body and the soul need to complement each other for living; everything needs to be in a state of harmony. So the soul can\'t be stronger than the body.

Kai tried absorbing the fire element and slowly absorbing it into his soul; it was not that painful because of the strength of his soul. His soul strength is already at the peak of the supernatural realm.

After tempering for 2 hours, Kai finished the process. There are no impurities in the soul, but he felt relaxed and could see the world very clearly. There is no increase in strength, as he expected.

Then Kai continued tempering with earth elements, and it was also a very easy process. The earth element gave a very good surprise. Now he can sense the gravitational force and electromagnetic force that exist in his surroundings using willpower.

This was a huge surprise for him since Kai thought that only stronger willpower was needed to sense the advanced element, but it seemed he needed to fulfill some requirements for sensing the element.

Kai did not dare to absorb these energies because they are very strong and overbearing and could also cause an imbalance in his body. He did not want to do such a risky thing when everything went the right way.

The metal element did not give him any surprises, like the organ tempering, but it seems to have increased his metal affinity since he can feel very close to the sword.

Then Kai started tempering with the water element; it was very comfortable, like always, and also ended even before enjoyment. It did not bring any changes to his soul.

The final wood element tempering only increased his regeneration factor for the soul. It is a small surprise, but compared to the Evergreen ability, it is not worthy of surprise.

But after the whole tempering, Kai got a surprise: his body just acquired [primary elemental resistance]. Now Kai can ignore 5% of elemental damage, and it is not only for the basic five elements but for every element.

That is why he called it primary elemental resistance instead of five-element resistance.

The five elements maintain the stability of the world, and the other elements are formed by the combination of the five elements. So, it is very reasonable to acquire elemental resistance by tempering the whole body.

Space, time, fate, karma, and other special elements do not come under the five elements. They are independent and do not come under his elemental resistance.

Also, elemental resistance is not absolute; when the strength of the opponent is greater than Kai by a large margin, it won\'t be of any use. But if the strength gap is that large, he may just run and escape instead of getting killed.

Now Kai can advance to the next realm, but before that, he decided to meet his parents since it\'s been a month since he saw them.

"Dad, Mom, I am back," Kai said as soon as he got out of the secret realm.

"Kai, do you come to take a break?" Alex asked doubtfully.

"Yes, Dad, I just finished tempering my body, and I might spend time with both of you since I will go to seclusion after breaking through the Qi gathering realm."

"Kai, did you just finish the body-tempering realm in just one month?" Riya asked in surprise as soon as she saw him.

"Yeah, Mom, I found a trick for this realm. But it won\'t be as fast as now in the future." Kai replied to them like this since he had not even told them about the will path because of the heavenly dao.

The heavenly dao put a restriction on him, and he is not even allowed to talk about it with others, but the benefit is that they won\'t be able to see his willpower cultivation level. This method of heaven has both advantages and disadvantages for him.

\'but I will try talking about it with them in the future.\'

"Don\'t worry, baby, you will find some tricks in the next realm also, and it also proves your potential," Riya said with a smile on her face.

"Okay, Riya, enough praising him. Let\'s go for lunch."

After eating, Kai spent a week with his parents and also asked about the experience of cultivation. Their experience will help him save a lot of time since they both have a common background and have made a lot of mistakes in their cultivation paths.

Kai can take their life as an example and learn from their mistakes.

To gather the Qi, it is needed to open the dantian in the body. The location on Dantian is different for everyone, but it is always near the stomach area. Everyone will open their dantian with Qi as a background, but Kai planned to open it with the five elements of energy.

It will be like opening the world in the body; the size of the Dantian is also different for everyone, and the five elements of energy will help him increase the size.

Then Kai gathered his willpower and tried to fuse the elemental energy, but it was a failure. His control over the elements is almost null, and he can\'t fuse it. First, he needs to improve his control over them, absorb them into his body, and fuse them, then use the fusion energy to open his dantian.

It took him a week to complete this fusion, and he could only hold it for three seconds. But this is enough since he already found the location of Dantian using the soul. Kai took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and tried to fuse the energy.

The five elements slowly fused into a gray smoke; it is like chaos energy, but only in its downgraded version. The real chaos energy will directly kill him.

Chaos energy is the combination or fusion of all the elemental energy in the world, and Kai\'s only contains five elements, so it is downgraded.

There is also the theory that says, \'The birth of the universe is from chaos, so chaos is the beginning of all things\' but Kai didn\'t know how much this theory is correct. But what he knows is that chaos energy is superior to Qi in every manner.

Kai used the fused energy to hit the location of his Dantian, and then he heard something break within his body. It was like a limitation placed by the heavens that was broken. Using his inner vision, Kai saw the expansion of his dantian.

It expanded from three to four meters, and it continued to expand until it started to slow down at seventy-nine meters.

Then it slowly increased to eighty meters and continued to increase. After a few moments, it reached the ninety-meter mark and started to slow down a lot.

Ninety-two, ninety-three, ninety-four, ninety-five, ninety-six, ninety-seven, ninety-eight, and ninety-nine... It seems to have reached the limit, and it can\'t break it. Kai did not like the ninety-nine meters because it did not sound good; the hundred would be more pleasant to hear.

But he decided not to give up and to try to hit a century.

The ninety-nine-meter Dantian is a heaven-defying achievement; the average distance is about 5 to 6 meters, and some people can achieve 9 meters, and his 99 meters is almost ten times bigger than theirs.

But this data is only from common people, and they don\'t know about organ tempering and would not have resources for tempering. But people from strong families will have a very big advantage since they have a lot of knowledge and resources.

Kai just reached the realm and still has room for improvement, so he can try the hundred-meter mark before breaking to the next realm.

Now that Kai has opened the dantian, he can gather Qi and fill up the dantian. Also, his talent [eternal breathing] started to absorb energy from the surroundings by breathing. Eternal Breathing is the name he gave to his lung ability, and it is a very cool name, in his opinion.
