《The Crest of the Emperor》Chapter 2: Awakening
Advertisement
He sat up on the ground crossing his legs and started to meditate. After a day, he slowly opened his eyes and held up his hand in the air. He gathered his spiritual power emitting from his soul core to his hand forming a Blue Lotus in his hand. It had wild glow and radiated enormous spiritual power. It started to slowly gather the qi in the atmosphere linked to the heaven and earth.
Blue Lotus Spirit was his spirit in previous world. It had the property to purify, cure and concoct medicinal pills that was equivalent to his spiritual force. As his soul and spiritual force had already one step away from the heaven realm. The qi emitted by blue lotus was already at that of heaven realm.
During his meditation he had found that he was not born with crippled meridian. But rather someone of high realm had forcefully sealed his meridian blocking his qi circulation at a very young age. So without serious knowledge in anatomy, it was impossible to find its cure or even detect it.
Curing this was easy using his blue lotus spirit. He directed the qi radiated from the Blue Lotus spirit which was powered by his spiritual force directly into his veins. The surge of pure qi opened his clogged meridians passing through fifty-two points clearing and purifying the path along the way. A surge of heavy pain hit his body, but he held on to it without uttering a word and tightly holding his mind, so as to not lose his consciousness. It was as if striking his body with iron nails, burning his brain, tearing his flesh away and crushing his bones to a thousand pieces.
Sweating and panting, he knew his body was being restructured by blue lotus spirit to become a vassal for his original profound realm power. But he sat their enduring all the pain, which was equivalent to all the suffering during his breakthrough, realm after realm in his previous world.
Looked for afar it was, as if he was bathed in a blue light, diffusing a sweat smell to the atmosphere. The dirt and filth released during the purification of body burned with blue glow and was washed away by the wind. It looked like a god meditating with a Blue Lotus in his hand realising high amount of spiritual energy to the atmosphere. It had divine holiness to it.
Anyone with at least one opened meridian was capable of cultivation of spiritual power to gain enlightment and insights to step realm after realm to finally ascend godhood. Born with two or more meridians opened was already considered a rare talent, a dozen opened was born genius and more than a dozen was a rare and unique talent in entire three continents.

Cultivators was capable opening their meridians as they climb the spiritual realm. But it was impossible to open all fifty-two meridians even after climbing sovereign profound realm and no one was born with fifty-two meridians opened. So by standard, opening his fifty-two meridian has already converted him to a possessor of divine body. This was one of the property of his Blue Lotus spirit as well as what sent his family to ruin in his previous world. It was a boon as well as a curse, which attracted devious and greedy ones that could destroy everything if one was not capable protecting himself and others he cared.
The moment his fifty-two meridians opened, the heaven shook, earth trembled, as if black hole opened itself, every spiritual energy of heaven and earth start to swirl around him violently. His body started to absorb this energy like a desert waiting, water for years.
He was astonished by this phenomenon, when he had circulated his spirit he had already felt a special link between his body and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. When his meridians opened, it was as if something rushing inside his body before it was devoid of its entry again.
The sky screamed, heaven started to shift, heavy wind of pure and heavy qi started to swirl like tornado, as him as the centre. The earth around, unable to withstand the pressure caved in. He gently closed his eyes, meditating and letting his body absorb the energy circulating the qi inside him.
The beast inhabiting the black wind mountain retreated to inner part of the valley. They were scared due to strange things happening around the area. Whether it may be beasts of earth or sky profound realm they didn’t want to get involved in the heavy pressure around the black wind valley.
Even some of the emperor and sovereign profound realm beasts were shaken from the events. As intelligent beings and having spiritual sense they were the ones, most affected by the change. They didn’t dare investigate or implore the happenings around them as they knew whomever causing was far beyond their league and someone not to be provoked. They stayed silent at the core of the black wind mountain range. Their existence was not known to outside world and was sure that no one would unnecessarily disturb them.
After an hour or so, the tornado of pure qi settled. The spiritual energy and qi in his body has synchronised. The young man sitting in the middle of large crater which extended to miles, slowly opened his eyes. There was no emotion expressed in his face, there was no sense of achievement in his reactions. He looked to boundless sky and stared at the heaven. His old cultivation had returned; he was now at heaven profound realm.

There was no need for him to cultivate from the beginning, his soul has trans versed through space and time. His spiritual power in his soul remains unchanged, he had already received his insights and enlightment in his previous life. All he had to do was synchronise his qi to that of his soul. The spiritual energy and qi always remained in equilibrium in one’s body, so it was simple. But he was afraid that his body could bear the pressure, and thought it would take at least a month to achieve this process. Fortunately, his body shared a special link with energy of heaven and earth and the process was over before he could analyse the situation.
He relaxed and slowly stood up. He recalled his favourite swords in his hands. A light enveloped his left hand and darkness started leak on his right hand. The area around the swords was crushed by its extreme pressure, and there it was, the divine sword and the demon sword . He slowly opened his palms, the swords lifted themselves in air and started hover around him making whistling sound, he was happy to see his two old companions.
These swords were bound to his soul, as long as his soul isn’t lost, these swords remained with him forever, it was due to the blood contract he formed years ago when the swords recognised him as its master. And so, it gave him sense of calmness when he watched the two circling around him.
Even though his mental age was fifty-five, his body was that of sixteen-year-old young youth. He decided to stay in the valley for a while to practice his old techniques and get a feel of his new body.
State of Affairs in the three continent [Giving general idea of power distribution as our MC as standard]
The three continents shall be sent into uproar and oblivion if they knew the fact that a sixteen-year-old youth housed the power of heaven profound realm. As of now, no one had heard or known to have stepped on to that realm for the past thousands of years. And it at least took a hundred of years to even achieve that realm, not in such a young age.
Cultivators across the continent shall revere him as a god and every empire shall make ties and offerings, so that not provoke his wrath.
Heaven profound realm was a realm that current cultivators of the three continents can’t even dream of. An expert of Heaven realm could shake the sky, erase countries and clans at their whim and provoking them means certain death. They only existed in myths and legends. The earth trembled under their feet and heavens shook under their might. They could control the elemental spirits of nature and strolled the sky like divine being.
Around six-thousand years ago, a peak expert of star profound realm, single step away from heaven realm, shook the entire three continents. They were scared and at their wits end. Hundreds of experts from influential clan in the three continent lost their life confronting him.
At the summons of the three continents empires, millions of experts were sent to confront him, but lost their life. In the end the heaven judged him for his sins and erased his existence, others concluded that if not, he would have been a demon to ascend godhood, so was recorded in history of three continents.
What came after was hundreds of years of despair and struggle, most of the clans lost their prominent people, and trouble came as the succession of skill and cultivation techniques were concerned. This was named, the Black Age, many clans dissolved and some thrived. It took thousands of years, to return back its normal state, and was now not as strong as the previous cultivators before Black Age. Ancestors or High Elders who didn’t take part in the confrontation were only one’s left to tell the tale, and lead cultivators to a new era.
Yup the MC is badass and OP. Unlike normal chinese novel MC is strong from the beginning. As the story progresses new events and characters shall be introduced, and how MC help them with his powers. The true meaning of story title shall be explained as the story goes on (may be like in 20 chapter or so).
Thanks for your supports and feedbacks.

QQQQ
Have you ever noticed that the letter Q is unnecessary? It doesn't provide any function to the language. Any word spelled with it could just as easily be spelled with other letters. Does that mean it shouldn't exist? Of course not. In this universe, everything has a place. Cosmic balance, Karma, God's plan, the laws of physics—they're all trying to describe the same thing. There is nothing that exists without purpose, and nothing without purpose that can exist. You can take solace in knowing that, just like the useless letter Q, you have birthright to exist in this world. Nothing can take that from you. Unless a creator God breeds technicolor angel-beasts hellbent on ripping you out of reality, of course. When Mina learns that she was a cosmic accident—a being accidentally created without purpose—what was once an easygoing life starts to entwine with conspiracies, impossible occurrences, and deadly occult mysteries. Not to mention friends so dangerous and unpredictable they make the cosmic horrors look normal by comparison. When the questions never stop piling up, it's hard to know where to begin. But I'll give you a hint: they all begin with a Q.
