The Modern Immortal

Cultivating part 1

The night was especially gloomy today. It seemed as if the curtains of the night were looming overhead and a layer of strange radiance appeared to cover the moon. The Yin qi was quite heavy and the sky was filled with black clouds that occasionally flashed with thunder. It looked as if a thunderstorm was looming.

RUMBLE!

Suddenly, a loud piercing sound exploded out, as if a hole was smashed open in the sky. Lightning and thunder rumbled continuously as the heavy rain poured down.

An aloof and domineering silhouette was sitting at the edge of the mountain, under the shades of trees forming a natural roof above him. Daemon was so engrossed in his cultivation that he lost the sense of time. 

“Hmmm...what is this” as he was sensing the qi and was trying to absorb it he saw a black stone with red lines covered on it.

 “Is that the god stone but how, how did it get inside my mindscape. Forget about it, let's first focus on cultivation, I will later try to find out how exactly it gets here”.

Suddenly he opened his eyes,thunder and lightning illuminated his face as he raised his head to look at the heavens. Of course, there was a grave expression on that face; his pupils gleamed as his aura soared to the Heavens. The time when the heavens are covered up,it was the perfect time to awaken the Ancient God Race bloodline with the help of Ancient God Body Refinement art which will temper his body and remould it to suit the ancient god bloodline..

Bloodline Awakening depended on Body Refinement Arts, and there were several Body Refinement Arts in the Immortal Realm, each having their own ups and downs. Although Daemon had never paid much attention to it during his cultivation, after moving unhindered for about thousands of years in the Immortal Realm, he had gathered several secret arts, battle skills, divine arts, treasures, artefacts, they were just too many to count. Just for simple Body Refinement Arts there were around 193839 Arts.

He had already calculated it in his mind.As he wanted to be stronger than his past self and to finally reach the god realm this time, he will definitely use the Ancient God Body Refinement Art. he knows that only through this art he will succeed this time, and defeated everyone in the heavens unarmed.

The stronger one's opponent is, the stronger one becomes. This was his teacher’s philosophy. Fiercely forging ahead, such a method was quite suitable to awaken his bloodline. If he isnt crazy, he isn't insane. If he isn't insane, he won't fight. You have to do crazy things in your lives to achieve something that no one has ever achieved.

Rooaarrr!

A loud roar surged out from Daemon’s mouth. His aura soared up along with the continuous rumbling of the lightning and thunder in the sky. It seemed that even the Heavens were alarmed by Daemon’s might today.

Daemon looked at the world with contempt. Even before he had completed the mystical art using his hand, the qi started circulating crazily, the blood inside his body started circulating faster. He felt as if he was on fire. The rain resembled drops of water falling on a hot iron panel as it dropped on his body, turning into vapour with a sizzle. The Ancient God Race’s genes hidden within his bloodline slowly started activating; those chains which had accumulated dust for several millenniums of years had begun to open up.

Roooaarrr!

Once again, another roar resounded through the mountain along with a thundercry. This roar was more extreme than the previous and seemed to arrive from an ancient era, its frightening aura enough to terrorise any person.

Such awful weather!

A Mid-night black BMW was going along the path towards the mountains top. The chauffeur was a short person with his hat worn low. A few people were sitting behind him, but their appearance was not visible as it was too dark.

“Rooaarrr”.

Daemon’s eyes transformed. His pupils enlarged and slowly it got divided into two pupils, both red in colour. Scarlet blood dripped from his eyes. The veins on his face, neck, body and arms expanded unceasingly, pulsating rhythmically.

Bloodline Awakening had begun!

“Rooarrr”. 

“Aaaaaaaaa”.

Daemon screamed with pain, just like an ancient beast. He never thought that cultivating this art will result in such dramatic change. His roar gets amplified by the mountain and terrified all the living beings residing in the mountain.

All those inside the car felt their hair stand on end when they heard the howl.

The mountains ran so far, and its secrets were endless. Before, in the news, it was mentioned that a leopard was found over at the town center Road. This causes many disturbances in the nearby areas.

Rooaarrr!

Another roar!

Daemon felt as if a fire was lit up on his skin. All his body muscles throbbed, issuing a crackling firecracker-like sound from within his body.

He clenched his fist and felt the endless power within his body.

BOOM!

It felt as if the entire body had opened up, the world before his eyes wasn't the same as before the colours had become more vibrant and the sounds clear. Daemon’s bloodline had already awakened, as he inspected he noticed that his body had changed entirely, at first he was skinny like normal kids but the body he has now was like it was chiselled from a single piece of rock, everything looked perfect and packed with unimaginable power. 

Daemon slowly opened his eyes, which he had closed because of the unimaginable pain he suffered, when his cultivation was finally done. If anyone had been paying attention to him, they would find the boy’s eyes shone like a pair of light bulbs. Slowly, the light in Daemon’s eyes dimmed and his dual pupils became one again..

“What an amazing art! Although this is the first time I attempted to cultivate, I am already well into the initial stage of body tempering. At this rate, I should be able to reach the Foundation Enlightenment within six months!” Daemon exclaimed in his mind.
