Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

Chapter 22 - 22: Entering Pedestal Establishment

"There's one problem though…" she said, not sure of how she should tell him about his realm. "Brother, you're really talented for your age but your cultivation, well it's a bit lacking for this secret realm"

"I know" he said before stopping, causing the atmosphere to be a bit awkward.

"Erm… is there a problem with your cultivation?" she asks as worry starts to appear in her eyes.

"What makes you think that way?" he asked, surprised that this is the first thing that come to her mind.

"I mean, given that you're already at the pinnacle of Qi Refining Realm last month, you're supposed to be only a week, if not a few days but you've been stuck for a month or more already" she said as she scrutinizes his whole body, looking all around as if a lecher.

"Well, I heard that there's a different way to break through the Pedestal Establishment, so I'm

Gathering his will, thinking that he needs to be strong enough to free his mother and grandmother from the Extreme Martial Sect and to protect them as they roam the continent, he decides to proceed with his crazy thought "Let's try it" he thought to himself as he started circulating the Pedestal Establishment method of the True Transcendence Body Art.

Feeling the torrent of qi entering his body, it was just now that it dawned upon him that there's no going back. Decisively, he starts shaping the qi and turned it into a mini figure exactly the same as him, trying to keep its shape with sheer willpower as qi continues to flood towards him.

In fact, just forming a pedestal as detailed and life-like as a small figure of oneself, is already enough to throw the entire continent into chaos, as it is widely known how difficult it is to establish a pedestal with intricate details, being so difficult that the less talented ones will only be able to make pedestal with basic shapes, their only measure of comparison being the number of sides their shapes have.

Wu Xiaotian doesn't know anything about it though, nor will he care even if he find out right now, as he continues absorbing more and more qi causing his body to bloat a bit, cracks emerging everywhere in his skin, beneath it are deep wounds that goes down to his bones, despite all this though, he remains in position as he multitask skillfully as if not in pain, drawing massive amount of qi in the surrounding as he guides them towards his gradually forming pedestal, all while keeping the unstable figure of his pedestal from collapsing.

Keeping himself from distracting thoughts, he presses further and further, after toiling for more than two hours, the figure finally reaching as big as his entire torso, however, it is getting harder and harder to maintain the shape, and the surrounding qi is already starting to show less and less help to his progress.

Considering all the factors, Wu Xiaotian decided to take a gamble, splitting his attention even further to manipulate the qi in the surrounding to make himself move towards the ninth layer.

Arriving at the ninth layer, the feeling of suppression causing him to fall to his back as the mountain like weight of qi force him to remain down, all while it invades his body as the cracks in it starts to grow larger, making him appear like a terrifying mangled pile of flesh.

This state was maintained though as his body is rapidly healing itself through the help of the very qi that is currently destroying it. Enduring the hellish amount of pain he's enduring, he continues to focus on his pedestal, now growing quickly again as their figure gradually overlaps.

The moment the two figures were of the same size, wondrous changes start to happen in his body as he hears an obscure bell chime, before feeling so good as if a world class masseuse is massaging his body, only this massage is performed on the cellular level.

As this massage continues, his cells are vibrating in a weird frequency, forcing impurities that he has never known exist out of his body.

As the process finished, he felt that his senses are extremely clear compared to his previous state, and he doesn't feel the 'oddness' that the book Hua Xian'er lend her said, something about the pedestal still settling in and the body getting used to the new 'organ' formed from spirit qi, instead, he felt lighter and more comfortable than before.

Feeling the changes, he couldn't help but look at the status window, the results completely surpassing his expectation.
