《God Must Be Lazy He Allowed a Cultivation Anomaly》62. The Price of Obtaining Power II
Advertisement
Kle In estimated that only an hour has passed and the circulation became automatic. He smelled something pungent and realized it was coming from him. It looked like it was the same fluid that came out of him when he first woke up from the cave. He stopped the urge to clean himself. It is currently night time and he could not see the people guarding him.
He activated his Failed Superman's Eyesight I and was surprise to see the dots representing their Qi Nodes. He switch his eyesight to Failed Superman's Eyesight II and was surprised to see the locations of the stationary balls which he refers to as soul.
He did not expect that it only took him less than an hour to breakthrough so he swallowed another batch of pills to achieve Peak Mid Qi Condensation. This time, he swallowed all remaining Body Reinforcement Pills in succession.
Even Kle In was surprise with the surge of Qi continuously being absorbed and distributed to his cores and dantian. After fifteen minutes, he felt that it was not enough to continue the expansion of the Qi capacities on all set of meridians. He did not want his breakthrough halted so he took out bottles of Advance Qi Enhancements instead. He only has three bottles of it, but he hoped it would suffice.
In a normal setting, cultivators must break through on an isolated place free of disturbance. Kle In however is the opposite. The cultivators guarding him can only see what is going on inside but if one of them is able to feel the fluctuations caused by his advancement, they would certainly feel wary and the same time jaw drop with this feat. Kle In is currently surrounded by Gal'awuts Sealing Formation energy fluctuations from leaking out. It is made from the scales of a predator whose specialty is sealing the movements of their prey.

Kle In used a portion of his Qi to seal off his nose and breathe through his mouth. The pores of his skin slowly secreted a black and oily putrid substance. He realized that he has never urinated nor defecated since he awaken his bloodline and those black substance must be the excrements that should have had come off his rectum. What he did not know was that these are actually impurities from his body being refined. His awareness is currently divided by people outside the seal and circulation and could not afford to have another distraction.
He does not have a clock but he reckoned an hour more before midnight. He broke through after thirty minutes and spent another hour and a half stabilizing his cultivation. After releasing his Qi on the first degree, he estimated that his Qi Projection could be extended easily to two hundred meters.
He could not stand the smell so he removed his shoes and got naked and used the same clothes to wipe his body. Since it was dark, his opponents probably won't be able to see him besides he does not have the luxury to worry about his image during a life and death situation. He took another set of clothes to wear.
The smelled lingered but was reduced to a certain degree. He used his Qi Projections to bury the clothes. Kle In observed the pillars one more time. He is tempted to attack it and eliminate the people outside but he is uncertain he could survive long range attacks after that.
He cannot help but think why is he being kept alive. Cleary they could have had just bombarded him with their long range attacks if they want him dead or exhaust him until he could not move if they want to capture him, and if they want the spatial ring of their comrade, they could just ask for it, but they seem to want something else.

Since he could not figure out their objectives, he started worrying about himself. Although there is a significant increase on his strength after reaching Peak Mid Qi Condensation, instinct tells him that something major will happen tomorrow and his strength may not still be enough.
Kle In looked at the remaining pills he had. He has four more bottles of Qi Enhancement Pill and 2 for fire type Bloodline Awakening Pill and the rest are five bottles of Foundation Establishment Breakthrough Pills.
Counting the number of pills he consumed to breakthrough to Peak Mid Condensation, he estimated he needed at least fifteen to twenty bottles of Advance Qi Enhancement Pill and he only has four of them currently.
Kle In took out a Foundation Breakthrough Pill instead. The energy content should be roughly the same as twenty bottles of the pill required. Without much thinking, he placed the pill into his mouth.
Kle In's attention was all focused on the energy released by the pill seconds after he swallowed it. Similar to the last pill Dal In fed him before leaving him to be hunted by the lion, he felt light headed and this pill stimulated his dantian.
He concentrated and distributed the rampaging energy towards his cores and stared attempting a simultaneous breakthrough on all of meridians. If he did not have the beast cores integrated to his body, his primary meridian may not be able to contain it all and explode. Beads of sweat rolled and dropped from his face.
Morning quickly arrived and a thin shuttle that looks like a rocket flew from the horizon and stopped mid-air staying at around two hundred meter distance from Kle In. The shuttle’s roof opened and part by part retracted until it became a boat revealing a man.
It was none other than the Nascent Soul expert who left yesterday.
Yesterday, this expert after receiving the two signals from one of his subordinate, he used a teleportation talisman to quickly investigate the mentioned location. When he arrived though, and saw a teenager not a young boy, he wanted to immediately kill the junior who sent the signal however, he noticed the teenager in question to have had wrapped himself with an explicable aura. He sent a few fire bolts to test the young man.
Even he could feel how terrifying the Qi Projection Hand summoned by Kle In and he may not survive it himself once caught. Luckily, there was a limit as to how far those Qi Projection Attacks could reach.
But what puzzled him is where was Kle In drawing his powers from. He does not radiate even the slightest diabolical aura which is a sign of possession nor the faintest sign of magic tool.
He wanted to capture him yesterday and perform soul search but he was worried the young man may explode himself. While he was thinking of a way to safely restrain Kle In, he suddenly recalled Kle In’s origins.
He set up a Tier IV Sealing Formation to contain the boy’s movements. As long as the boy is not on a life or death situation, he believed that he would be able to buy enough time.
He returned after kidnapping two people from San Ruk Town.

The Monster Inside: The First Vampire
Despite appearances, there was once a time where monsters did not exist. Where peace and prosperity reigned over all life. But those sinful and demonic forces that had hidden themselves in the shadows just couldn't help themselves could they? They wanted a piece of that prosperity too. They wanted to taint it, corrupt it, revel in its dark side.This is the story of a boy who was tainted. Of a boy who unintentionally bore a seed of sin and who in his naivety let it out. This is the story of how that boy was shamed and disgraced. Of how he was outcast for simply being. This is the story of how that boy learned to embrace the darkness that made him different. A darkness that would later make him known as the Lord of Night. Note to Reader: I understand this book is not for everyone, if there is a writer that can write to please everyone, I have never heard of them. The MC can be frustrating in his decisions as he learns to grow and accept what and who he is. I believe this reality is unavoidable. That being said, if you feel the need to give a review, please do so, just know that I will report you if all that review seems to do is blab toxic language and insult my literary choices without giving constructive advice or alternatives. That's not just a me policy, that's a policy of this website. I'm not writing this note because I'm a writer who does not acknowledge that there are faults in my work. I know there are. That's what happens when it hasn't been professionally edited by someone other than the author. I'm saying this because I'm sick of reading 1 star or 0.5 star rated reviews that seem to do nothing but hate on the book because they don't like the story. No comments on grammar, ways to improve or suggestions for better story arcs. Just plain hate. It's not on, and I frankly shouldn't have to write this note, but needed to get it off my chest. In saying all that, thank you to those who do leave reviews that don't fall into the above category. Your appreciation of my work, or alternatively, your willingness to give advice for improvement, is appreciated.

The Designated: Out of Control
It happened quicker than anyone would have imagined. Multiple hurricanes were one thing. People had dealt with that in the past. But, like kids playing dominoes, one thing crashed into another. Areas affected by hurricanes needed resources all along the Gulf and East Coasts drew rescuers and resources away from other parts of the country. When wildfires lit up the Pacific coast and mid-west, those areas were already understaffed. Driven by hurricanes in the Pacific basin, uncontrolled wildfires burned through towns, destroying everything in their paths. Across the Pacific, Asia didn't escape. From the Philippines, across China, into Indochina, and Bangladesh and India. Typhoons and cyclones pounded the coasts and far inland. Widespread flooding forced millions from their homes and across international borders. Mexico was hit hard and thousands died in mudslides as Katia slammed into their East Coast. The refugees fled north and west. Rumours started that hundreds of thousands were headed for the US border. Instead of running out of steam in the southern US, several hurricanes tore up the eastern seaboard, devastating cities and renewing their strength before veering east across the Atlantic. Maria and Ophelia veered east and slammed into Europe, reaching as far as the Netherlands and Russia before finally dissipating. After that, too many weather stations were offline to provide any form of co-ordinated information or warnings. Wildfires in Portugal burned ahead of the storms, fanned by hurricane winds. They sparked wildfires leapfrogging across Europe, beyond any one country's ability to cope. Already uneasy from multiple terrorist attacks over the summer, anti-refugee groups seized the opportunity to stage protests across Europe. Some turned violent as they clashed with police forces. Several governments declared martial law to quell the rioting and enforce evacuations along the path of the storms. Rumour and speculation overwhelmed facts. Unrest spilled over into widespread violence. Then sickness broke out in the displaced populations. Within a matter of a dozen weeks, tens of millions died. In the coming winter months hundreds more would follow. The Designated Project was activated.
