Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs

Chapter 455 A Step Forward

Though to Seth, it seemed like forever, it actually took him only a few minutes to finally pull the immortal qi all the way from the outside into his dantian. 

Having to go through the process of pushing through the ton of mortal qi that was within Seth, by the time the immortal qi reached his dantian, 90% of it had been wiped out, nothing but tendrils of immortal qi being the survivors of this dangerous journey.

"This is very inefficient. If it continues like this, just how much time will it take me to replace all the qi in my body? Urghh, why is my qi so stubborn? we used to be such good buddies."

As Seth had this thought, the immortal qi which he had been struggling with finally entered his body. But just before his mind could move to drag the next strands of immortal qi out of the stones, Seth's dantian trembled. This sudden shake caused Seth's entire body to shiver.

"What just happened?" Seth wondered, quickly turning his attention to his dantian. 

With his soul sense this time, Seth's attention zeroed in on his dantian, trying to find the fault with it. A bit of apprehension and fear entered his mind that he had somehow made a mistake and was about to dearly pay for it.

Fortunately for Seth, none of his fear came true, as just a second after the small wisps of immortal qi entered his dantian, both Seth's dantian and his qi suddenly lost their aggressiveness and calmed down.

"What is happening?" Seth wondered in total confusion. Seth's dantian, which had been spinning as hard as possible and releasing out as much qi as it could, now lay dormant within him, looking like it had fallen asleep.

Seth tried to interact with his dantian but found himself unable to, he couldn't even feel its presence. 

Seth's face scrunched as his current situation reminded him of his last breakthrough, of how his dantian had gone all automatic on its own and taken care of making a successful breakthrough.

Just as Seth had these thoughts on his dantian, it kicked back into action and began spinning once more, and Seth could swear that this time a cry of joy left it.

Seth was as lost as to what his dantian was up to this time, but he didn't have to wait for long. Without much delay, his dantian began absorbing all his qi, both inside and outside his body, back into itself.

"Ehhh, what is it doing now?" Seth said, his once-disappeared fear reappearing as he found his qi literally reabsorbing all his qi. Like it was a vampire, Seth's dantian drained Seth dry of qi, its actions making Seth's body quickly dry out like he hadn't eaten in days.

Were it not for the fact that Seth was already used to his dantian and body taking the reins of his breakthroughs or evolutions, he would have panicked more or tried to pause the process. In the end, he let his dantian take him to a level of weakness he had never felt before.

Sitting there cross-legged, his skin all wrinkled, and his hair taking on a dull grey shade, almost seeming to want to turn white, Seth looked like an aged cultivator who had reached the end of his lifespan and was now waiting for death to take him.

"Seth, what is happening?" The concerned voice of Alexia sounded. 

Though the woman couldn't observe the changes in his dantian, she could see the changes in his body, and not for a second did him looking like he was on death's door make her think that he was actually making some progress.

At first, Seth wanted to simply give her a vague answer, one that would settle her worries about his well-being and at the same time not give her much information about what was going on through him, but then at the last minute, he changed his mind.

"My dantian has absorbed all my qi and seems to be working on it. I'm not sure what it's doing though, but I know it's beneficial."

Despite all that they had been through, Alexia had always made sure not to pry too much into Seth's life, aware that there were some secrets he kept from her due to his wariness and her incomplete memories and origins. 

Though this was a situation that she wouldn't have wished for, it wasn't one Alexia was against. So when she had asked Seth what was happening to him, she had been fully ready to get the usual generic answer that stated he was well but instead, Seth had given her a rundown of what was actually happening within him.

At first, Alexia thought he was just feeding her nonsense, given how casually he talked about his dantian automatically carrying out an action that was beneficial for him. But then, remembering his already impossible feats, she thought of this as possibly being one of his secrets and so kept quiet.

"Okay, please be careful," Alexia said and then went silent, not wanting to distract Seth in such a critical and fragile time. 

That Alexia didn't grill him more for details surprised Seth, but then again, it was a welcome surprise, and with a nod, he let the woman go back to her silence while he himself stayed focused on his now solely rotating dantian.

What was going on within his dantian, Seth wasn't sure, but he trusted his dantian enough to know that it would do what benefitted him. 

With his mind and soul sense completely focused on his dantian, Seth lost track of how much time had passed. By the time his dantian began trembling and quivering, Seth felt like he had been seated for an entire day.

With the new change in the situation of his dantian, Seth tensed, readying himself for whatever development might occur. But then, rather than his qi, which had been sucked in, coming out, his dantian instead released a powerful and intense pulse to the surrounding.

For a few seconds, Seth was left stunned by the strength of the pulse that had just left his body. Then his mind immediately got back into action, as by some means, he actually understood what his dantian was asking for with that pulse, and Seth, seeing no reason to go against it, fulfilled its desire.
