My eyes quickly shot open, but my mind had yet to fully fuse into the body of this young man around the age of eight to twelve.
I began to feel it, once again feeling came back to my hands, lifting my hands. I had to begin, to remember everything, my mind was a little foggy from the rebirth or transformation into a koi.
"Hello, World" I quickly said seeing if this body had a voice box, but I could feel it, qi still even in my own human form, even after using my own technique for the first time, I still had qi.
"What was that noise" Someone said from a house down the street from the pond, a elderly woman stepped outside her residence, this woman looked around until she saw me.
"Oh, it's been awhile Gu Mao, Haven't seen you in a few years" The elderly woman said as she quickly told me to come inside, I smelt something delicious so I followed her inside.
I assumed she knew the original body that I evolved into, so I quickly began to talk to the nice lady and eat some of her food she was making.
I made her think that i simply lost my memories so i hadn't visited in awhile because i forgot she exists.
She began to explain to me the truth of this body.
Gu Mao, other people saw him as trash due to his being at the lowest rank of cultivation, but that would help me in the long run anyways, but to the people who knew him, all of them liked him.
"Yeah, You're a part of the Iron Yang Sect" The elderly woman explains, as she hands me the head of cabbage, it was a sect that focused on training yang qi through rigorous ways.
It was a strong sect, even had a martial ancestor for a sect leader. It was trying to become a holy domain sect, I heard there were official talks about it happening.
I can't return to the sect, mainly because I can't return to the holy domain without strength now because I've lost all the status that my original body gave me.
I headed out of the elderly woman's house, walking towards the direction she gave me for the nearest city. I made it there really quickly.
Walking into the city door, past a couple of merchant venders, until a heard one that could be helpful.
"COME THIS WAY, THE GUESSING GAME BEGINS NOW, IF YOU CAN GUESS THIS PILL YOU WIN NOT ONLY THE PILL BUT ALSO TEN THOUSAND SPIRIT STONES" an annoyingly loud voice rang in my ears but i could not ignore it, one i was broke poor but i also studied under some of the best alchemist in the holy domain.
I turned and walked over to people continuously guessing the wrong pill, it was getting annoying, it was obviously the origin core breakthrough pill or otherwise known as Origin Breaker, it was just one of the couple breakthrough helping pill that were left by the holy sovereign.
"The Origin Breaker Pill" I quickly said, not giving anyone a chance to reply faster than me and steal my supplies.
"CORRRECTTTTTT SIR" the loud asshole who wouldn't shut up quickly began getting on my nerves, but he handed me a ring, one I had never seen before, he called it a storage ring.
They managed to have someone so good at Space Dao create a ring instead of a bag, why the fuck did the holy domain not think of that, there are tons of experts in the Space Dao over there.
I guess you can never underestimate the minds of the lower realm, here I thought I was one of the smartest in the world, but we did just find with our special bags that I guess none of us really had these problems of needing a ring.
"This is useful" i quickly said as i walked away, not stopping to do anything, i used two spirit stones to stop and get myself a chicken dinner, it was delicious.
But then i went on my way leaving the city once again after eating, the forest was a better place anyways, i had activated my technique the six arts of the divine man, i technique i created in my head, it was all in theory but now that I'm normal i can try and make them come to life.
I knew one that wasn't in theory, and that was the devil absorption art, i quickly took out over one thousand spirit stones, and used my small amount of qi to set up the devil absorption art, one of the main techniques of the Demon race sect master, and anyone wanting to become sect master.
It took awhile to figure out, i had to wait until after the holy domain war with the devil race to scare the demon into letting me read it. They weren't too worried about it cause i couldn't use qi but they are gonna regret it now.
It is a technique that allows the user to absorb qi and life force from anyone who steps in it, i quickly used my qi to use a illusion technique which made the people who were following me and most likely for the origin breaker pill, it made it look like i was just laying down in the grass, but i was truly laying down on a tree branch waiting for them to enter the array.
Even if I would not have been able to survive that array at my current level, the array works with all qi's no matter weak or strong if super weak like I was, I had to stay away from it while using the third technique to absorb the qi.
The third technique was a reverse engineer of the second one, which allows someone to use other and feed the world qi, i reverse engineered it to feed only me qi.
