214- System's ability

Mass release: 5th chapter from the 5 chapters.

=======

Before starting cultivating, Orochi recalled all the information about the Demi-Human stage.

According to the information available in the brown book, after one reaches Low level Demi-Human stage, they have to upgrade their bronze dantian to silver dantian. And only then one can break through to the Mid Level Demi-Human stage.

And to upgrade their bronze dantian to silver dantian, one needs a large number of resources.

The reason why one needs a large number of resources is that for the bronze dantian to upgrade, it needs to be supplied with energy.

So, when the energy is supplied to the dantian, the dantian absorbs it like a tree and grows. And when the dantian reaches its limit, it upgrades to the silver dantian.

To be honest, only the step where one needs to activate the dantian is the most difficult and tiring step.

But when one successfully activates the dantian, then all he/she has to do is supply enough energy for the dantian to upgrade and break through to the next stage.

It's like watering a sapling every day and in time, it will grow into a huge tree.

So, now Orochi needs to invest a large number of resources to upgrade his dantian and he can break through to the Mid-Level Demi-Human stage.

And Orochi has just that one thing that can help him in this situation.

Orochi took out a small palm-sized bottle from his ‘Storage Box’. This palm-sized bottle contains the ‘Stalactite Milk’ he obtained in the Dark Forest.

According to what others have told him, just one drop of the Stalactite milk is enough for him to break through to the Mid Level Demi-Human stage.

But before he takes it, Orochi wanted to perform few experiments.

He placed 10 Low grade energy stones in the ‘Qi Compressing’ formation and started absorbing the spiritual qi extracted by the formation.

Then he guided the spiritual qi towards the dantian.

But when the Spiritual Qi touched the dantian, it did not actively absorb the spiritual qi.

It's because the dantian is like a part of Orochi and he can control its actions to some extent.

So, after the spiritual qi touched dantian, the dantian acted as a filter and started purifying the absorbed spiritual qi and then condensed it into purer and thick spiritual qi and then stored it in the dantian’s internal space.

‘drip’

The spiritual qi drops started filling the dantian.

‘drip’

‘drip’

Finally, after 15 minutes, the supply of spiritual qi stopped because the 10 low grade energy stones used in the ‘Qi Compressing’ formation were exhausted and they turned into dust.

When he looked into his dantian, almost 30% of the dantian was filled with spiritual qi.

Then he added another 10 low grade energy stones to the ‘Qi compressing’ formation and continued to absorb the spiritual qi and fill his dantian.

So, after another 30-35 minutes, he finally stopped absorbing spiritual qi as his dantian was filled to the brim.

After calculating, he understood that to fill his dantian completely, it takes about 31-32 low grade energy stones worth spiritual qi.

Then Orochi asked the system,

“System, can you monitor my dantian and tell me all the details about it.”

Immediately the system notification rang,

‘ding’

‘The current dantian’s grade is Bronze Grade.’

‘It can store about 2952 units of spiritual qi.’

‘Current conversion ratio of World’s spiritual qi to Host’s spiritual qi is 1:1.’

.

When Orochi looked at these details, he was somewhat surprised and happy with the ability of the system.

With this data, he now has a clear idea about his dantian.

And especially the last detail ‘Conversion ratio’ of the dantian, he found it very interesting.

The dantian is responsible for purifying the absorbed spiritual qi into a more pure and thick spiritual qi that will belong to the owner of the dantian.

‘So, from the system’s description, it can be understood that if I absorb one unit of spiritual qi available in this world, and when my dantian purifies this 1 unit of spiritual qi into more pure and thick spiritual qi, I will get only 1 unit of spiritual that now belongs to me.’

‘Because the current conversion ratio of my dantian is 1:1.’

‘In simple words, my dantian cannot purify and thicken the absorbed spiritual qi because of its grade.’

‘So, after it is upgraded to silver dantian, then the conversion ratio might go up to 2:1.’

‘And even in the brown book, according to the old man’s research, only after one’s dantian transforms into silver grade, then that person’s spiritual qi becomes thicker and purer because the dantian has been upgraded.’

‘So, wait until I upgrade my dantian.”

Thinking about this, Orochi moved on to his next experiment.

But first, he has to empty his dantian.

So, he activated his dantian, and all the spiritual qi inside the dantian got absorbed by the dantian at an amazing speed.

One of the ways to upgrade the dantian is to let it absorb all the spiritual qi it has stored.

After all the spiritual qi was absorbed, Orochi saw that there was no change in the dantian but he was not disappointed by this.

Instead, he moved on to his next experiment.

Orochi took 100 MP and moved it towards the dantian, to let the dantian absorb it and see what happens. But unfortunately, there was no reaction. It looked as if some air was hitting the dantian.

Then he performed few more experiments and almost every experiment failed except for one or two.

Done with his experiments, now Orochi had to make a choice.

Whether to use ‘Stalactite milk’ or to simply use ‘spiritual qi’ to upgrade the bronze dantian.

The reason why he is hesitating to use ‘Stalactite milk’ to improve is that he found a more suitable and cost-effective way to upgrade his dantian- Converting MP to Spiritual Qi and supplying it to the dantian.

During his early stages of cultivation, he would convert MP into spiritual qi and infuse it into the empty low grade energy stones, due to the lack of low grade energy stones for cultivation.

But he would never directly use the ‘MP converted spiritual qi’ to cultivate because he wanted to train his body in absorbing the spiritual qi from the environment. Hence, he wanted to use the ‘MP converted spiritual qi’ to upgrade his bronze dantian.

After a moment of contemplation, Orochi couldn’t help but cursed himself,

“Damn, I should really let go of my past life’s habits.
