I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 194 The Silver-White Hole Called My Dantian!

The first impact from the dark energy guided by the milky white ball material wasn’t as easy as I thought.

The membrane separating the dantian from the first meridian was so thick and resilient. It took me almost ten minutes to crack that membrane open.

Yet the moment it happened, the dark energy finally flooded the meridian. The momentum of it pushed open a lot of secondary meridians attached to that one.

Under my guidance, the dark energy kept opening more smaller meridians. I didn’t hurry to open more bigger meridians and first focused on saturating those smaller ones and the smallest ones after that.

It felt like I was pouring water on a desert. The meridians I opened sucked away a lot of the dark energy I pushed, but who said I didn’t have more?

The energy coming from that bone finally got a chance to grow calmer. I took such a chance and opened another big meridian. As the last one, I also pushed open a lot of smaller ones, slowly and steadily expanding my meridian network.

It took me roughly one hour to completely open the entire meridian dense network around the dantian alone. At this moment, the dantian region didn’t look like anything before.

It was now like a dense bright net made entirely out of brightly shining spider webs. I opened just an area of the size of half my belly, but to me it was like I opened an ocean in there.

The dark energy became less aggressive and more agile and flexible than the first time it gushed into my body. This was all thanks to the vast area I opened using my meridians.

The meridians I opened were like hungry beasts. They kept devouring the dark energy like they had no limit at all.

Yet I didn’t let them have all the fun alone. As the dark energy kept accumulating fast inside my body once again, I started to open a big meridian.

It was the one linking my dantian with my legs. According to the old man this was the biggest one in my body.

Yet when I opened this one, I soon discovered it wasn’t as big as the one in my belly.

It wasn’t just the matter of its size or thickness, but the amount of smaller meridians connected to it. Compared to my belly, the one linking to both legs weren’t on par in terms of quantity.

But as I opened these, I kept pushing them beyond the limit. I soon opened all the meridians I could reach at this current stage.

Then as the energy kept doing the rest down there with itself, I started focusing over another region; my chest.

I held high hopes for it. In my opinion, the highest areas with meridians would be my belly and my chest.

And that area didn’t let me down!

Just opening the first couple of big meridians there gave me a lot more of the smaller meridians that the ones I opened in both legs added together.

I kept pushing the dark energy using my past experience in my belly region for that. After a couple of hours, my chest turned into a world of dense and interlinked net of light.

“Now it’s time for my arms and head,” I examined the amount of dark energy gushing into my body to feel satisfied.

That bone kept increasing the amount of energy coming into my body as if it was rising up to the challenge. I smiled when I felt the insane amount of energy gushed into my body at this moment.

Without such a dense and immense amount of energy, I would never be able to open more meridians. Hell! I would have never been able to open even one tenth of the meridians I opened so far!

Armed with such energy, I started working on all fronts this time. My body was slowly turning from its dull and dark state into a shining thriving body filled with a dense net of light.

I had already filled my lower half with opened meridians, and I had an unexhausted amount of energy gushing into my body each passing second.

So opening meridians at my arms and head didn’t seem that hard. At first I could do it perfectly fine, until I entered the maze of my mind!

I never expected that my mind would prove to be this hard. It wasn’t just a simple area filled with meridians, but it gave me the same impression I had when I first opened my shadow and discovered it.

My mind… It was boundless!

The more I opened, the more it expanded! At some point I even felt helpless towards this. In my head, my mind started to develop a wider transparent mass of energy that kept expanding beyond the limits of my skull.

Yet strangely as it might seem, I also felt my mind to still be confined within my skull. It was a weird experience and feeling, but all I could do was to give up after wasting five hours straight working on my mind alone.

I didn’t know why, but when it came down to cultivation I felt like time entirely stopped to lose its meaning. Hours passed out like running water. I even felt that spending days, weeks, months, and even years later on wouldn’t be that surprising at all!

As I finally gave up on expanding my mind, I started to focus over the last area I never touched so far; that link between the two dantians.

I left this to the last moment. I needed first to prepare my body, dantian, and my meridians. Now I could start building my second dantian.

But the main problem I had now was an answered question. I had meridians inside my body lying dormant and waited to be opened.

So what about my shadow? Would it also have the same dense meridian network or what? If not, then how I’d be able to expand that dantian?

I didn’t know anything at all to even guess. The only thing I could do now was to start expanding and pushing dark energy into that link and see how things would turn out.

And that was also one of the reasons I decided to delay such a step to the last. If this failed, at least my body wouldn’t explode right away and I’d have more time to find another solution with Yonker.

Yet when I started opening that thread, it felt like I was cutting a stone with bare hands! It was so sturdy, resilient, and hard to push my dark energy forward.

But my body was now a dense net of meridians filled with energy. The dark energy once completed a circle around even a small part of my body would turn completely shiny, becoming a silver white energy.

I didn’t have time before to examine or appreciate this. And surely I didn’t have time for this right now. But that allowed me to change the way I was using the dark energy to open that stubborn thread.

I recalled back all the dark energy and instead let them pass through my body first. Then I used the extra silver white energy and pushed it through that thread.

This time the movement speed improved at a rate visible to my naked eye. The past resistance got a lot better, and that thread turned into a calm stream of water.

I didn’t hesitate and pushed more energy into it. I didn’t think too much about the reason and only thought this was thanks to the nature of this thread.

After all, it was developed after replicating my dantian.

The moment my energy passed through the part inside the shadow, a rumbling sound echoed all across that shadow, assaulting me with a violent shockwave.

I felt like my entire body was breaking down at this moment. But thanks to my dantian and dense net of meridians, my body sustained this unexplained wave of attack and even revolted against it.

A sudden gush of the dark energy came fiercely from the bone, turning into a massive amount of silver white energy in no time. This energy found its way without the need for me to guide it, attacking that shadow back and forcing it to taste from its own medicine.

After this the shadow never revolted again and the energy all reached at the same time at the small dantian inside that shadow.

Then a mind blowing thing happened.

Just as I was worried about the nature of that shadow, an amazing phenomenon occurred once my energy reached that dantian.

Like a dried up root of an ancient tree, the moment my energy touched that dantian it shook, started to expand at a fast rate before many threads started to grow out of it.

“What is that?” I looked closer and tried to not miss any single moment of this awesome moment. The dantian kept shaking, expanding, and releasing more threads that kept interlinking together as if they were programmed on creating something.

The more energy arrived at it, the faster this happened. At some point, I got the feeling that something was odd considering the dark energy coming from that bone.

The energy started to gush into my body at an unprecedented rate that gave me a scare. This amount of energy was even beyond the ability of my dantian and meridians to handle.

Yet as I felt that, I also felt another astonishing thing in my shadow. That dantian changed by somehow and started to act like the thing in the depth of that shadow.

It became like a black hole, yet it didn’t seem right to give it such a name. After all this dantian of mine was shining with silver white energy and not black at all.

But it had the ability to devour anything thrown in its way. It turned into an unceasingly rotating swirl that kept fiercely drawing any energy from my body.

In response to that, the energy coming into my body grew to such a terrifying scale. I now realised there was no danger here at this moment.

But what if that bone’s energy got depleted at some point? What would happen if that little silver white beast didn’t get satisfied? Would it also attack my body and devour my energy to the last drop?

Damn!

Without further hesitation, I opened my eyes, took out another bone from that beast. It was a black graded bone, one lesser than the red bone I just used.

I had two more of such bones in my inventory, and much more of the dark gold grade as well. Yet I decided to start with these two before going to exhaust the other ones.

*Rumble!* *Boom!*

“Kill them all!”

“Don’t falter!”

Just as I briefly interrupted my cultivation, I noticed loud echoing rumblings, explosions, and even shouts from everywhere!

I only extended my neck and saw a brutal fight going all over the place. Dragons were leading a grander army, trying to push back my forces which were still drilling under the walls of the city.

It happened for many parts to lose their digging machines. But there were still many more places with my forces working on the walls.

“They don’t need me yet,” I only needed a few seconds to reach such a conclusion. Yet I couldn’t be sure that the dragon archlord wasn’t close by now.

So I instantly activated the full throttle force of my chariot, letting that shield of her to protect me during my next cultivation session.

I even took out two hundred million stat points, threw them without batting an eye over the beating heart of it.

I didn’t know how long I’d be immersed in the last step of my cultivation. I was in such a delicate moment that stopping was much riskier than sitting here while enemies hammered down at my chariot.

Two hundred million stat points were enough to sustain my chariot for a long time. I also summoned back ten fallen gods, all were lightning gods, and also a hundred soulers to further ensure my safety.

I had to see this through till the end, no matter how bitter or difficult that end would be. This cultivation fight inside my body wouldn’t end up by my loss. And this fight here wouldn’t end up losing that city.

I decided to risk everything, to take everything at the end. Victory favoured the brave, and the bold ones as well.

Let the gods of luck be on my side in this fight, let me end up the victor at the end.

And now… It was the time to finish this cultivation fight inside my body.
