Back at the underground cavern, Ni Ma was undergoing training from the old man.

“The basis of cultivation is to accumulate Qi into your dantian. In our bodies, there are three dantians which I will introduce to you in detail.” stroking his beard the Alchemy God lectured Ni Ma.

“Firstly, the dantian that most cultivation techniques focus, the upper dantian which is also known as the ‘muddy pellet’. It is simply put, the source of your qi.”

“Next, the dantian that revolves around a person’s constitution, the middle dantian. It’s also known as the ‘crimson palace’ because it’s where your heart is. Here your Qi is refined into spiritual energy, by utilizing the spiritual energy, you’ll be able to strengthen your body and empower martial arts for combat.” After pointing at his heart, the Alchemy God sliced apart a rock to demonstrate the use of Qi.

“Lastly, the lower dantian, it is found in your lower body, and is known as ‘the golden stove’. This is one of the most important dantians for cultivation because it purifies and refines your qi and essence.”

Ni Ma used his All-Seeing Spiritual Eyes to observe the Alchemy God and found his dantians, they were the weakly flickering specks of light that he had previously seen.

“As you can see with your All-Seeing Spiritual Eyes, my dantians are weak and could fade at any given moment. That is why you to be my discipline and succeed me! Based on the state of my dantians, I can only live for 7 more years! In these 7 years, I will teach you everything.” said the Alchemy God with a kindly smile as he ruffled Ni Ma’s hair.

Although Ni Ma did not understand a single thing the Alchemy God said, he smiled and nodded, with his eyes expectant of the glorious buffet of meat that the Alchemy God had promised him.

“Now then, I have several cultivation manuals for you to choose from. Firstly, I have an extremely powerful manual which I trained in myself, its called the THUNDERING GODLY HEAVENLY SWORD SAINT ASURA DRAGON EMPEROR GODKING OF DESTRUCTION PIERCING THE SEVEN EMPYREAN HEAVENS manual. This cultivation technique is extremely hard to train in but at its final stage, it will let you become the THUNDERING GODLY HEAVENLY SWORD SAINT ASURA DRAGON EMPEROR GODKING OF DESTRUCTION PIERCING THE SEVEN EMPYREAN HEAVENS!”

“Now that I’ve shown you the most powerful manual, there’s no need to look at the rest of them!” said the Alchemy God as he kept away all but one of the manuals he took out.

“In regards to cultivation, there are numerous stages. I shall name them all in ascending order: Mortal Cultivators, Ascended Mortal Cultivators. After having lost their mortal bodies, power levels are separated by realms. Starting with, The Spirit Realm then the True Spirit Realm. It’s called the True Spirit Realm because the previous Spirit Realm is a fake.”

“Then, the rank ascends to random ranks, where the difference in power between levels can be clearly felt. Starting from the Elementary Profound Realm, to a Xiantian, to a Gold Rated cultivator, to a Martial Lord, to a Qi Creation, to a Saint Ruler, Spirit King, and Spirit Emperor. Which is where I’m at.”

Unable to comprehend the massive amount of information going through Ni Ma’s brain, a meteor hit the the face of the planet. Everyone died.

The end.
