《Reincarnation of The Butcher Alchemist》Chapter 9: Unlocking Merdians
Advertisement
Arriving home, Zhu Tufu looked satisfied at the ten buckets of Demon beast blood in his room with the three buckets of Demon beast blood that he bought before, which weren’t so pure anymore like the ten buckets. He had thirteen buckets of Demon beast blood. Thinking [This should be enough to unlock all my merdians and have enough to make the thing that’s going to replace the core in Core Stage.]
Sitting down on his bed and eating one of the Qi Concentration Pills. He started to lose his vision, couldn’t hear anymore, didn’t feel anything touching him, didn’t smell the blood anymore and couldn’t taste the pill anymore. But he sensed the World Qi and the very thick Blood Qi near him very clearly. [It seems it’s very effective, but if someone attacked me right now, I would probably be dead.]
After thinking that. Zhu Tufu concentrated on gathering the Blood Qi near him. When they were gathered, Zhu Tufu manipulated them near all the twenty merdians and slowly covered the inside with the Qi like you would paint walls. [First I need to cover the inside with the Blood Qi then I need to manipulate all the energy to attack all the blockades in all twenty merdians at the same time.]
It seemed simple in theory, but in reality it needed all your concentration to gather the Qi near all your merdians, slowly cover them and then attack the blockade without breaking your cover or your merdian would get damaged. If you had the Qi Attraction Pill then it would be 35% easier. But with the Blood Qi which Zhu Tufu never used.
He was at first very carefully gathering it near his merdians then cautiously covered them after that he started to attack the blockades only to find out that he already had no energy left to attack the blockades. [I was too careful and ended up concentrating more on gathering and manipulating than I should, resulting in wasting too much energy and time. I should take it step by step, slowly speeding up the process.]

After this Zhu Tufu slowly, but steady speeded up the process.
…..
Duan Fa went to the Lin clan secretly and was in a underground room with the young man who he met the day before.
“Here is the list with the items I need, this time I just directly poison the Grand Elder and frame it on her grandson. That's the more secure way for my future as a Patriarch, but it will take some years to succeed. If I frame it on him now. No one’s going to think a six year old boy poisoned his grandma, but probably think someone framed him. So you can take your time.”
The young man looked at the list and said: “With these items it’s definitely possible to poison the Grand Elder, but it will cost me a lot of contribution coins.”
Duan Fa reassured: “Don’t worry after I become the Patriarch, I pay you back with interest in mind.”
“I hope your little scheme works, if not I will look for someone else to help me destroy the Ma clan.”
“It will definitely work. You just need to wait, just to make sure that Grand Elder Zhu Ya or the other Elders that are against me won’t suspect me that I poisoned her. So I need to plan everything carefully.”
[Well I already waited ten years what does a little more hurt] "Ok I will give you the items on the list in the next two years when the Academy let’s their students out again. While you just plan everything for now.”
.....
After five days Zhu Tufu finally unlocked all his merdians with the Blood Qi.
Zhu Tufu happily said "Finally and at the right time too. I still can't believe that one Qi Concentration Pill can only last one hour and thirty minutes. Witch such a duration, all my Qi Concentration Pills are almost gone.... Well I won't need them anymore anyway."

In these five days expect eating, drinking and going to the bathroom, Zhu Tufu has only been trying to unlock all his merdians and it paid off.
Zhu Tufu sniffed himself and thought [Uhhh I smell worse than dog sh*t in summer. Let's first go to the bathroom and then check what's inside that Space ring.]
Going into the bathroom and washing himself. He went back to his room, changed the sheets and sat down on his bed.
Excited, Zhu Tufu takes out the Space ring from his Soul Space and looks inside. Only to find out that this Space ring was secured.
A secured Space ring can only be opened by the one who secured it (Usually it is the owner of the Space ring). Because the key to open it. Is the Qi which secured it, meaning no one can open it beside the owner, because everyone's Qi is unique (Like fingerprints).
Of course you can just through out destroy it, but you need to be at least a stage higher than the owner to destroy it.
"Motherfu*ker, i was excited for nothing. This is definitely my Space ring, but with this new body I definitely can't open it. #@$&@..."
After some cursing later Zhu Tufu calmed down. [Well if I needed to secure it. It means something valuable is probably inside, but wasn't needed anymore?.... Hmmm what could it be? I remember in my hundred something years old age I had a Space ring which I secured, but it was such a long time ago... Well doesn't matter, before strength everything will be destroyed and a mere security on a ring will too.]
After that Zhu Tufu went to find his grandma to take the cores.
Finding Zhu Li and taking the cores away. Zhu Tufu went back to his room as fast as he came out with no time for Zhu Li to question him.

Sometimes the world will just whirl by without a care for its inhabitants. Each passing day bring a new experience unlike the one before it. Why do we do anything... That's a really good question, isn't it? Author's Note: Each chapter is about 300 words, so that's the reason for the short story tag even though this will be a (somewhat) ongoing series. Expect an update twice a week on Tue/Wed and on Fri/Sat. No set time, but likely afternoon or evening.

Going be slow paced uploads. No promise of completion. Typing to improve. *** Description - Story is going follow MC, Will. He's going to go exploring the new world after the cataclysm. Going to have some science, but is mostly going to focus on fantasy. Magic, monsters, etc. Setting - Two worlds smack each other, destroying Earth in the 22 century. All known settlements are in districts and are the verge of a breakthrough in genetics to improve humans beyond their limits. Technology doesn't work outside of the eletromagnetic fields, and magic is a toxin. Plot - Anything I can think of on the spot. I type as I think, which is what I'm the best at. No outlines nothing like that, but maybe a character/place worksheet to use as a reference. *** Email me for any sugggested revisions, most likely to be seen btw. -PS I'm a junior in college working towards a duel degree.
