Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel-Chapter 11 Dantian Awakening 3...
For the children here, this was a normal thing. After all, this was their world. However, this was totally different for Chiron. What he admired was not the people, but the power they had access to.
Power was the real thrill
"Many of you already know me, but for those that don't, I am elder Joules. I am also wife to the current Chief of the Chikitsa clan," Joules introduced herself as her eyes scanned the crowd.
The moment she had mentioned herself as the Chief's wife, Chiron could see a proud look appear on Cablen's face.
"I am also going to be the head instructor for this year's batch of cultivators. In a few minutes, many of you will have the privilege of being cultivators of Spirit energy. Many of you will go on to be great warriors that will bring honor to the clan and to our ancestor." Joules pointed to the stature of the Man holding the head of dragon.
"Who knows, Maybe one of you will reach a cultivation level that can also help you devour dragons." She added.
Those words were mesmerizing to the minds of the children. After all, it was common knowledge that Dragons were creatures of not only peak strength and cultivation, but also existences that could transcend the physical realm.
It is said that even a baby dragon straight from the egg was at least a Red Core beast. A red core beast was several times stronger than the strongest cultivator in the Chikitsa clan.
Just like Cultivators had their different ranks, so did beasts and plants. The cultivation rank was usually as follows:
Nearly cored beasts.= which are used as food.
yellow core beasts=
Green core beast=
Blue core beasts=
Red core beasts=
violet core beasts=
black core beasts= Which possess wisdom similar to that of man.
white core beasts= These creatures are practically myths and only one has ever been recorded to have been seen in the last thousand years
gold core= beast gods.
Nearly cored beasts were mostly used for food. This kind of beasts could only sense their respective energies but not use them. Also, Most of them presented little or no threat at all.
However, yellow core and above was an entirely different case. yellow core beasts and above were an active threat. In fact, the clan had been attacked by waves of them several times in the past because of its rich source of exotic plants that grew as a result of the dormant volcano behind it.
Chiron took a look at the stature of the dragon and could not help but feel a deep-seated fire for power spark in his heart.
"We will now begin the Dantian Activation ceremony." Joules stretched out a hand and one of the elders beside her passed her a long broad sword. "The sword in my hand belonged to our ancestor. It carries a trace of his will and an abundant supply of his Spirit energy. You all will have the opportunity to be touched by it. Since we are all connected to the ancestor by blood, this sword has the ability to awaken the sleeping dantians in your bodies."
Joules unsheathed the sword and it made a SCHWING sound as it left its scabbard. This broad sword was beautiful to look at and from Chiron's perspective, it looked like the sword was a mirror.
Joules used the sword on her palm, shedding blood. She squeezed her hand on the blade as she muttered a chant in a very low tone.
*MIIILLLL*
The sword hummed loudly like it was a turning fork that had been hit hard on a rock. And then before the eyes of all that watched, the blood stain on the sword slowly disappeared.
It looked as it the sword had drank all of it. Not a stain of red remained.
The sword suddenly lifted up from her hands as if it had a life of its own. It floated in the air as its surface glowed slightly. Chiron watched attentively. In truth, he was excited to see such things with his own eyes.
In his former life, he had seen when a circus visited the streets and performed. The tricks those guys did was indeed incredible, but at the end of the day, that was all it was-TRICKS.
The sword floated away from the Elders, hovering above the heads of all the children in attendance. All of them looked at it attentively. However, it suddenly disappeared before their eyes. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
Everyone was surprised as to where it had gone. All of a sudden, the sword appeared again, however, it was in front of a boy.
It suddenly charged at him, passing through his chest like a hot knife through butter. This took the children by surprise. The boy fell to his knees as he screamed on the ground in pain. He coughed up some blood and then, he stopped moving.
This was another blow to the children's minds, but before they knew it, the sword continued its rampage. It pierced through the chests of all the children in attendance.
In their fear of dying, the children panicked as they ran to the exits. However, Chiron remained standing in his spot, with Nora hugging his leg tightly.
Deafening screams filled the air as the sword went round like the butcher's knife in a poultry farm.
It was a total slaughter. At least, it looked like it.
As the sword rampaged, one of the elders suddenly noticed something and alerted Joules. She looked in the direction he had pointed at the little four-year-old hiding behind Chiron.
"Don't worry! The Sword only touches those that are seven years and above." She concluded and looked away.
Nora hugged Chiron's leg tightly. Soon enough, the sword had come for him, however, it paused for some seconds before him and then shifted its direction to Nora, piercing straight through her chest.
The Elders were watching and saw as this happened. This immediately took them by surprise...
