Murim Recurve Chapter 11

She noticed five items in it: a finger-sized cylinder, a scroll, a book, a wooden knife, and a badge. The moment she gazed at them, her heart thumped. Her face was flushed red as something within her guided her attention to the book.
'Is this what master's power is guiding me to pick up first?' Re'Kha thought, picking up the book, noticing the bag close automatically while its sash formed a knot.
She set the bag on the table and placed the book on her lap, trying to pry it open. The book seemed to be carved from a tree or grown within it. It seemed to be alive, as if it was a plant in the shape of a book.
Re'Kha found that the book seemed stuck, unable to be flipped open. Irrespective of the strength she used, it was like a block of stone. She then remembered the method used to open the bag, placing her hand on the book as she generated the blue radiance once again.
The book readily absorbed the energy, also pulling out another form of energy from within her. The blue radiance she was emitting changed colour to green without her knowing. In her vision, both the radiances only looked like a wave of blankness moving froth from her hand into the book.
The front cover radiated a formless energy, infusing some memories in her head. Re'Kha heard the voice of her master again, but his tone now was full of vitality, as if it was a younger version of himself.
"Re'Kha, my disciple, this book is a Spirit Artifact whose functions are similar to the Spirit Amulets in every Clan. Contained in this are 100 hundred pages, each containing various abilities and knowledge I wished to impart to you. You might wonder how I created and recorded all this when we met only recently, but I knew you would come from a long time ago."

It seemed like a recorded message as there was no reply to her questions. "This book is named Bodhi, and can only be opened by you. It is because it only recognises my Qi, which I have imparted to you by fusing my Pranic Heart with yours."
'So that was the warm feeling I felt at the start. That was my master's Pranic Heart fusing into mine.' Re'Kha thought, listening to the voice.
"Bodhi will only open the first time to my Qi and would change to open to yours automatically after that. After obtaining my Pranic Heart, you would find many difficulties in using your old abilities. There are two reasons for that: One, because you are blind, you would rely on sensing the Wind Qi for your perception. Because of that, it would conflict with your Water Qi and prevent you from launching any attacks." Re'Kha nodded in realisation, understanding why she was unable to attack before.
Her master's voice continued with the same youthful vigour, "Two, it is because your Pranic Heart now supports three elements, two of which cannot be wielded by anyone from your race. So, the Wood Qi and Wind Qi would conflict within you and damage you constantly."
"In the first page lies a cultivation technique I have created in my twenty years of seclusion. That would help stabilise your condition and allow you to wield the three elements without trouble. Once the information in the page is absorbed, it will disappear from the book, leaving behind an empty page. And, you can at most absorb the information in a page once a month. Any sooner, and your mind would burst from the information overload."
The voice then turned a tad gentle, "Finally, once you learn the cultivation technique, you can start unlocking the other pages using the energy signature it generates. And, the number of pages you can unlock correlates directly with the Qi you possess. So, to unlock all 100 pages, you have to reach the peak of a Harmoniser. As for the remaining items I left you, the details to them are in subsequent pages. Once you absorb them, you'll know the purpose behind everything."

The voice disappeared abruptly, causing Re'Kha to stare in a daze. She took a while to digest the information, understanding better the preparation her master had put. 'But, he said he has been waiting for me since long ago. Does that mean he could predict the future? If he had such a heaven-defying power, then how did master end up in such a state in the first place?'
Re'Kha flipped open the book, noticing the first page. She tried to flip to the subsequent pages, finding that even though she could flip through the first 12 pages, she felt her head spin while looking at them. Only the first page could she gaze without any trouble.
The fact that she could only flip through 12 pages further made her remark at her master's preparations, 'I only have 12 units of Qi. So, to obtain all the secrets of this book, I have to become a peak harmoniser.'
She smiled, now finding a way to survive. She placed her hand on the first page, inserting the blue radiance into it. It was her Water Qi. The page sucked one unit of it, emitting a formless energy into her head.
Re'Kha felt her head ring while her vision turned dull. She looked like she would lose consciousness any moment, quickly grabbing the bag as she put the book inside. She watched its sash form a knot as she gently placed it back in its original position.
She barely controlled herself from creating any unexpected noise, sighing in relief as she laid on the bed to rest, closing her eyes as a surge of information rushed into her head.
Her master's voice resounded once again, with the same youthful vigour as before, "Mist Banyan, that's the name of this cultivation technique. When cultivating this technique, your Qi would be the same water Qi as before. But when needed, you can morph it into either Wood Qi or Wind Qi. That's the sole advantage and goal of this cultivation technique: to use the elements of Wood and Wind as a Kalki."

It roared and blew across the world, and reached even the Heavens above. With it, the great cold of winter flooded across that higher plane, and the gods staggered. They felt the golden dust of their divinity drift away from them, and the message of that wind became clear… This Winter will never end so that the Earth will.
