Chapter 18 - Heavens Swallow
Du Chan looked at that person who killed his brother and aunt.
By this point, that guy was already terrified to death by the whole gang of bandits being killed in front of him. Even his boss, the strongest person in the group, died in the massacre. No words coming out of his mouth.
"Let me tell you a story" Du Chan started to explain something.
"My aunt and I were attacked by a bandits' gang when I was 8 years old. But I killed them, do you know why? It was not because they attacked us, but because they thought to do bad things to my aunt" he slowly explained.
That bandit was listening carefully but nervously.
"Now I killed them because they had bad thoughts about my aunt. But you killed my aunt and my brother and I don't know what I should do to you" he said with a void voice.
Despite his confusion, that bandit understood that begging for mercy was futile.
Du Chan broke his left hand.
"Ahhhh!"
Then the right hand
"Ahhhhhhh!"
"Hmm, I don't feel any satisfaction by doing this" Du Chan said. He didn't know what was happening to him. He wasn't feeling any emotions coming out of him right now.
That bandit's eyes were red and tears were flowing through his face even though Du Chan didn't even have a single expression on his.
"I'll just kill you and bury you beside auntie's grave'' he said and raised his hand but he felt as if he lost control over his body. His eyes started to close because he didn't' have any qi left in him. The backfire had started. But he was determined to kill the bandit, so he gave him a last slap with his remaining strength and his head separated from his neck.
Du Chan fell unconscious over the corpses.
After some hours he woke up feeling yet exhausted. He looked around a bit. There was nothing new..only the decay everywhere. He recovered some of his qi meanwhile but there were some sandstorms coming and going through the body.
He stood up and picked the bandit's head and body. And he was about to use his *WheelWind Walk* when he saw a meteor was flying towards him with great speed. Du Chan started to run and the meteor fell to the ground with a big noise.
BOOM!
A hole appeared and the fire spread around the area where it fell. The corpse started to burn. He looked at that place and it was bright with golden light. When he got closer to it he felt he had a connection with it.
He got even closer to it and when he did he see that there was a book. It was normal and it looked like there was nothing special in it but he saw with his eyes it fell from the sky and even the fire around it didn't affect it.
Du Chan kept that head and the body to one side and jumped into the hole eagerly. When he picked up that book, he felt a very familiar feeling as if he knew it for so long.
"Is this from earth?" He could only think that.
He opened the manuscript and on the first page..
{Heavens Swallow}
Then the next page.
{Heavens Swallow is the greatest technique created by XXXXXX if you cultivate it to its peak, you can swallow the heavens themselves}
He didn't care who created it..cultivating is important. Then on the next page, there was a circle in the middle of the page and below it there was text.
{Drop your blood in the circle}
He didn't think into it and casually dropped his blood on the circle. He had a feeling that this will not do anything bad.
Nothing happened. He tried to turn to the next page but there was nothing on it and all the other pages too. But after a minute, the book began to glow, it blasted and turned up golden coloured letters which slowly entered his body, flowed into his stomach and entered his internal organs.
It was so painful when it entered the organs but Du Chan was sitting there with no expression whatsoever. He had already gotten used to the pain when the door entered his body so this was nothing in comparison.
Slowly, the letters flew through his whole organs. Symbols started to appear on them: kidney, liver, and the last was heart.
Every organ had a unique symbol on them. And those symbols started to merge with the organs after that information was sent to his head.
"So this is what the heavens swallow means, I can swallow anything, and turn them into qi. This is really a good technique" he murmured even though he got such good technique he was not glad. historical
"Okay, let's try this out" he stood up, opened his palm and started to control the Qi in his dantian. He did as was instructed in the technique.
Qi came out and started to rotate but before he completely used the technique he ran out of qi in his body. So he took a pill that the sect master gave him and it helped him in recovery of qi very fast.
After some time, his qi recovered and he could see that the quantity had also increased.
He tried to use the *Heavens Swallow* and the qi in his palm rotated faster and faster, it became a big cyclone and started to suck everything near into it like the sand, corpses and all the qi around them.
When the corpses entered the cyclone they were smashed by the qi forces and even the bones were reduced into nothing and converted into pure qi. But when the Blood Condensation warriors' bodies entered, they were also smashed to nothing but their blood was rotated into the cyclone.
Almost a 100 of corpses entered the cyclone. Only 2 were Blood condensation realm bodies. This was Du Chan's limit. If he added any more, then he couldn't control that. So the cyclone became red and slowly started to compress, and in a short time, it turned into a dark red ball which gave a mysterious aura.
After the ball formed, it landed on his palm. The ball was the size of a thumb and it was filled with blood and a sweet smell.
He threw that ball in his mouth without any second thought. When it entered his mouth, he felt he ate very sweet chocolate as it melted in seconds and the organs inside his body started to grow a cyclone formed in his dantain. He didn't feel any changes. He could only see that his organs were glowing in gold colour light and the Qi inside the ball started to enter his organs and sent the qi into his dantian. (The organs are working as an amplifier here. If a person took something that has a large qi quantity and if their body cannot afford to take it, it will explode)
Du Chan was sitting in a lotus position and he could see the cyclone in his dantian getting bigger and bigger and suddenly he felt pain in his heart. When he checked that with qi he could feel that there is a red like qi present in his heart. It is the blood qi of the Blood Condensation realm, he is still not at that level that he could absorb it. But the pain was increasing bit by bit so he started to chat the Undying Physique.
Golden light started to brighten on his forehead and the blood qi in his heart started to melt into a pure qi and enter his dantian. This process took some time and the cyclone in his dantian settled down and the qi in his dantian doubled.
He felt refreshed all over his body, he looked around.
"Hmm, let's refine everything here" then again he used the *Heavens Swallow* the same as before but this time he added 3 Blood condensation realm warriors at a time. After it formed into a ball he swallowed it and it was even sweeter than before. It melted very fast and the cyclone in his dantian was a lot bigger than before the blood qi started to move in his blood veins. The blood veins started to expand and blood vessels are getting wider than before, this is one of the symptoms that he is going to breakthrough into Blood Condensation.
But the blood qi started to melt and turn into pure qi and enter his dantian. After the cyclone calmed down, the qi in his dantian increased very much.
He gripped his fist and he could feel he was a lot stronger than before but a thought popped into his mind.
"What's the use of this strength?"
"To protect someone close to me?"
"Who?"
He talked to himself in a void voice. But he couldn't find an answer to it.
"Why should I get stronger?"
"To cure my illness?"
"What's after that?"
He had no idea why this type of thing popped into his head but there is no answer to them for now! But he could come to the conclusion that even if he cures the illness he will live a meaningless life.
He stopped thinking and stood up, then looked around but there were less corpses now. He didn't want to use that technique any more so he picked the head and the body of that bandit and used *WheelWind Walk* with qi.
BOOM!
The ground cracked and he disappeared from that place.
Middle of the sky.
A man was sitting on a sword in the air. He was the Shen that sent by that bulky man in the Gods realm.
"I delivered the technique master!" Me murmured. And slowly vanished.
In front of the village Eastern Mountain.
Du Chan was slowly walking in the middle of the ruined village, the flames slowly cooling down. He saw many of the villagers burned to death.
He saw the kids who always bullied Zho Rong half-burned and the kids he always played with too. Seeing all this, he felt uneasy in his heart but there was no expression on his face, so he walked fast and reached the orphanage.
When he saw both Gu Auntie and Zho Rong, his body was shaken but he came to them and dropped the head and the body of that bandit.
He kneeled in front of them.
"I took revenge I guess. Please rest now" he put his head down and said.
"Bro...ther....chan.." a week voice entered Du Chan's ear...
