Number One Dungeon Supplier

Chapter 1132 - Expanding His Chi and Mana -unedited

Thus, he had been practising his hourly chi output because he knew that this was also considered as one of his backlogs from the past few months. Sooner or later, the System would demand the Dungeon Supplier to perform his cultivation in order to grade up and he had to face Genbu in order to proceed

So, it was not accidental that he entered his cultivation stance but instead, it was a conscious effort to do so. With a wink of sleep, he was able to enter his subconscious realm to practice his output. That few seconds of sleep was equivalent to a couple of minutes in his subconscious but as he practised on an interval basis, he was able to extend that couple of minutes to tens of minutes, to a point he was able to last an hour in the subconscious realm while it was barely three seconds.

While he did not have a probable answer to the current situation, Jin theorised that the constant time dilation which the System subjected him to had changed his perception of time, allowing him to practice more in his subconscious realm too.

And he did not waste any time doing it. From trying to channel the chi from his dantian to his entire body, he noticed that there was a very noticeable lag coming out from his body instead of the usual instant the Astral Panda Cultivator had when he was in reality. Thus to improve his cultivation, he had been reading up on the chi circuits during the two week hell when he was building the advanced training centre for the Demon Exorcists.

Apparently, he found that chi circuits were part of the beginner course to be a Demon Exorcist and they had been trained to use their circuits to the ultimate effect. He did question previously whether he had been doing it wrong to summon chi directly from his dantian. Unfortunately, not only the System explained that it was the most inefficient way, several cultivators and bellators even said the same thing.

He even got the same answer from Zeru, his supposed master when it comes to sword training and he was mildly shocked that Jin had been summoning chi directly from his dantian core. "It does not seem that way when I assessed you, the usage of chi from the dantian core had a more erratic movement but your Maqi had always been quite steady," Zeru said before cutting the connection once more, citing that he needed to concentrate on the task at hand in the Hidden Flower City. He did however promise that he would give more information to Jin once everything had settled.

Upon knowing that he had been training wrongly, he did try to ask for Ming in the subconscious realm but for the past two weeks in confinement, there was no sight of him. It felt like the Tiger of the West trial all over again in which Jin had to rely on himself to get the answer. So without much advice, Jin tried to figure it out by attempting to spread the chi in his subconscious realm.

It was at that point he noticed that the chi output he had was not the same as the instances where he pulled out his Maqi in the subconscious realm. As irritating as it might sound, the chi was pure chi, lacking the mana he felt in the Maqi. That being said when he relaxed, Maqi was released but only in small amounts that were sufficient to bring out his Astral body, thanks to the intensive training he had with Ming.

Still, he found it weird that he was practising advanced techniques when his basic foundation of spreading his chi throughout his body was not complete. So, Jin had to work backwards for the past two weeks, not only to spread his chi but also to activate his magic circuits.

He did send a query to the Demonic Sage Queen for any advice in mana acc.u.mulation and all that Explosion Specialist stated was to create explosions. "You might think my advice is for nought but explosion spells are the fastest way to call forth vast amounts of mana. Thus, the result is in direct correlation to the amount of mana you have. If you could only poop a 5cm diameter of explosion, it means you suck. Suck so bad I will tell you to either quit right now or train your explosion spells until you increase the size of the explosion."

Jin quickly understood that Peppers did explosive spells to remove the excess mana that was stored within her and she made sense. If he were to manage his Maqi in his subconscious realm, he had to conjure mana by casting spells. Peppers did send him an incantation of an explosion spell and told him to practice when he had the time. She was at first curious why he needed it since his Maqi was able to cast fiery explosions without much aid of an incantation spell. But since Jin had cut her off upon learning the spell, she did not bother much. The Mage Bellator had no idea that Jin was doing this for his subconsciousness.

Little did he know that the training in his subconscious realm had exponential effects on his Maqi in real life. Two weeks? Two years? Twenty Years? The refinement of his Maqi in the subconscious realm did not matter compared to the colossal task of defeating Genbu right now.
