The Story Never Ends

"Eh..how could I forget about this ring?" Davion slapped his thigh.

"I didn't open it earlier, thinking that I might get tracked. But now I am far away. I might as well see what's inside."

Making up his mind, he slowly poured his spiritual energy into the ring. He felt something obstructing his way but his energy easily passed through it.

He finally saw the contents inside the ring. There were at least 50 low-grade spirit stones, some clothes, a sword and a strange white pill inside a bottle.

"I thought I could get the sword art that he used when we fought. Even though that sword art couldn't do anything against me, it looked flashy and quite strong." he got disappointed.

"There is no need to think about this now. Let's see what this pill is about."

He opened the cap of the bottle and a strange smell came from it. Looking at it curiously he smacked his lips. "Don't tell me this is the Qi Refining Pill? I just read something about it in the library just now."

"When the cultivators reach the Qi Refining Period, they have to absorb the energy from heaven and earth. This energy consists of different types of elementary particles like fire, water, earth and many more. Everybody has a different affinity to elements, so they have to refine the energy before taking it in. Some people who do not have any affinity take a long period to refine it, as they have to take only the plain energy free from all elementary particles. So, they are simply not favoured by most of the sects."

"The refining of this energy takes a very long time. At least ten years to reach the late stage of Qi refining stage, even for a talented disciple. So, the Qi refining pills can be used as supplements to improve faster."

He used his mind-eye and said, "This pill looks like it doesn't have any attributes."

"I don't have any spiritual roots, so this pill won't have any effect on me. Should I sell it or try it by myself if something happens?" he hesitated.

"This is the first pill that I have seen. I think I should try it by myself and if nothing happens, then I might as well sell these pills in the future if I find any."

He immediately put the pill inside his mouth and swallowed it. The pill started to melt and it produced strong energy which was trying to flow in his body. But suddenly, this energy disappeared as if nothing had happened.

"Eh.. what happened?"

He closed his eyes and tried to feel where the energy went. Suddenly he laughed out loud.

"Haha, who could have thought that pills could also increase my experience points? It increased by a whole level and a half."

He felt huge energy flowing inside his body. "I have reached level 15 and my experience points are still half. It's been a long time since I last levelled up. Not only that but it looks like the Foundational Body Tempering Art has just turned blue."

"It looks like I can learn this exercise now. This golden finger, wew...,I don't even know what to say. It's really awesome."

He closed his eyes and focused on the Body Tempering Art in the panel. The experience points started to decrease and finally became empty. The panel blurred and a new text was written in it: Body Tempering Art learnt which was in black colour.

Suddenly the spiritual energy inside his body started churning and it started flowing vigorously through every part of his body. It started to flow through his bones, muscles and internal organs. Every part of his body started to be strengthened. Black dirty substances started to come out of his skin. The whole process lasted at least half an hour.

When he was about to become happy and smile, his face stiffened. He covered his nose with his fingers and complained, "It's too smelly. I should take a bath first."

He immediately went to take a bath and came out after a few minutes. He went to the mirror and looked at himself.

He looked very different from the previous one. Even though his face and hair were the same, his skin was totally different. Although his skin was originally white, the ruddy colour has faded and now it looked crystal clear like white porcelain. It looked very dazzling and felt smoother to touch. He felt very light and healthy.

This is an unexpected change.

"Let's see how strong my body is without using spiritual energy."

He took out a sword from his ring and poured a little bit of his spiritual energy. The sword started to glow and become black in colour. Seeing this he became extremely shocked.

"My spiritual energy used to be silvery white. But now it turned black?"
