After a few hours, Kai had fallen into a rhythm and had killed at least half of the adult [Rock-Wyrm]. He used two tactics against them. First, he would stand in the creative and use the second skill of [Primordial Dragon Stance]. The frantic beasts would impale themselves in his pincers. All he had to do was position himself in a way that would aim for their maws or underbelly.

The combination of their momentum plus his immovability made it an instant killer.

When the skill was on cool-down, he switched to guerilla tactics. Chopping off their legs or kicking their dead comrades into the groups to confuse them, killing the ones that were unprepared then quickly escaping back to the crevice.

An open frontal attack was completely out of the question. Not only were they fast, but their pincers were extremely sharp and sturdy. If Kai was surrounded, he would probably just die. They were so dangerous that Kai had to use [Hare Leaps Over Moon] a few times already to escape a few tricky situations where they had surrounded him while he was outside of the crevice.

It didn't take long for there to only be 10 of them, removing a lot of pressure from Kai. He now had enough room to jump around while stabbing them in their weak spots.

The fight wrapped up with Kai quickly claiming victory over the beasts. He spent some time collecting their gallbladders and put them into his backpack. He then moved back to their nest to claim his prize.

On his way there, Kai checked his Qi.

[350/600 Qi]

Kai only needed to break 42 eggs to get enough Qi for another breakthrough. He had been fighting for a while now and was slowly losing track of time. He also hadn't slept for a long time and was running completely on adrenaline.

Kai arrived at the nest and started breaking eggs. The few remaining juvenile [Rock-Wyrm] tried to stop him but they were no longer Kai's opponent. He crushed them as easily as he crushed the eggs. When Kai had enough Qi, he went back to the crevice to breakthrough.

The place was covered in foul-smelling bug Ichor and corpses from the earlier massacre but Kai didn't mind. All he had in his mind was getting stronger.

Kai sat in his usual meditative pose and focused on the Qi circulation of [Dragon Subduing Law] to breakthrough. Kai felt his Qi flow out of his core as usual but this time it was a lot more violent than usual. His Qi passages tried to expand but seemed constrained.

The Qi buildup in his channels started losing control and ripped holes through his Qi channels. The excess Qi leaked into his body and ran wild inside his veins and organs. Kai tried not to panic and focused on patching the damaged Qi channels while trying to keep the violent Qi in his body under control.

Kai spat up a few mouthfuls of blood during the process and a few veins on his arms also exploded, leaving him a bloodied mess. Kai couldn't be bothered to think about any of this since all his attention was on keeping his Qi from ripping his body apart.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the invisible constraints on his Qi channels were lifted and they expanded to their new size. Kai's Qi also calmed down, making it easier for him to focus on repairing the torn channels while redirecting the wild Qi back into his core.

==[Congratulations, the host has broken through to the 6th Level of Qi Condensation]==

Before Kai could even feel happy, he passed out from sheer exhaustion. This was by far the hardest and most dangerous breakthrough that he had ever had.

Kai woke up after an unknown amount of time, lying in a pool of his blood. His physical wounds had already closed up thanks to his Body Cultivation Manual [Primordial Dragon Physique].

"Ughh, that was horrible...I feel like I just typed onto a bed of nails..."

Kai slowly stood up and painfully stretched his body. He had successfully broken through but that was too dangerous for his liking.

"I should slow down for now. At least until I can get some information about ways to successfully breakthrough"

Kai knew that breakthroughs were a big deal in the cultivation world. Only powerful cultivation manuals had the layout on how to successfully break through to high levels, but even those geniuses needed teachers to guide them in the right direction. Kai had no such thing so he needed to find the information himself or risk going in blind as he did earlier.

"At least I know there is a pool of free Qi in this place. I'll just come back once I have enough information so I don't accidentally kill myself".

Kai took a deep breath to calm himself down but was surprised when the surrounding slivers of Qi in the air were sucked into his body. The amounts were small but Kai could feel it gather in the pit of his stomach.

Kai sat back down and focused on this new Qi in his stomach. It took some effort but he was able to get it under his control using Qi manipulation, then directed it towards his core. The core didn't take to the new Qi at first and spat it out, but Kai just kept shoving the Qi into his core in the same way he did with the wild Qi from his breakthrough.

Eventually, the core accepted the new Qi and went to work refining it. After about 20 minutes, the Qi was fully refined and started flowing out of his core and into his Qi channels.

Before Kai could react, a notification popped up In-front of his face.

== [1Qi] has been absorbed from [Air] using [Core]==

"Well, that was something. Who knew this was actually possible..." Kai was surprised yet again. He had always thought that the only passive Qi he could gain was the [1 Qi] from his internal manual [Dragon Subduing Law].

He had only recently started to sense the Qi in his surroundings, but couldn't actually interact with it. Now that he had reached the 6th Level of Qi Condensation, he somehow suck in the Qi.

Kai even felt that every pore in his body could now be used for this , but he didn't think he was capable of that just yet. Even just inhaling the Qi in the air was tricky right now, so you can forget controlling each individual pore to suck in Qi".

"This discovery is going to be a game-changer....but...",

Kai looked at the [Grade-2] beast corpses in the surroundings with a smile.

"Let's make some E-Rank manuals first!"
