A SON"S MESSAGE TO HIS FATHER.
Alex was still in the open meridian realm, which meant that unless he went out to challenge someone himself, he wouldn"t be challenged in turn. And as it stands, Alex knew he needed every bit of time to be able to regain his strength, however the obvious problem would he the fact that if he rested for too long, then all of the cultivators with a suitable level of cultivation for him to challenge would have already been eliminated.
His first opponent was just in the first level of the open Dantian realm, yet he was able to use his QI to congeal an image and give substance to a technique. So far Alex has just been relying on his sprit masks to actually cause a significant amount of damage, and it was not something he could do for very long as his spirit was not yet strong enough, heck you might say he has not even started cultivating his spirit energy, instead relying on the presence of Nezha to help his spirit energy to gradually increase until such a time as he would be able to focus and train it.
But Alex was left with a dilemma, given how exhausted he was feeling right now, should he choose to be stubborn and go challenge someone else as he was right now, then he would obviously be eliminated and loose his chance to get into the next round tomorrow. But at the same time if he spent time trying to regain his strength, he might have no other choice but to fight someone a lot more stronger than him, and even then his chances would be even less than before. Alex was stuck, he was about to ask Nezha a question when he felt a trace of Qi cover his body as a voice whispered into his ear.
"How you move forward is up to you, however the fact remains that you should always be at your best and also try your best. It doesn"t matter how strong your opponent would be, if you let the possibility of matching up against a stronger opponent and loss hold you back, then I"m afraid you would not be able to go far in your journey of cultivation. Take a breath and rest, no one will challenge you, and it doesn"t matter if you lose or not, just fight as hard as you can."
Alex was quite startled, but he recognized that voice without a shred of a doubt, it was his mother"s. And honestly he had no idea what to feel, during his three months of intense study and training he did not even get a chance to see her, not even once, but here she was giving him advice and telling him how to move forward. Alex couldn"t help but feel that there was more to his mother than he knows, but a training session and a few advice would not erase fourteen years of abandonment. But to be honest, the woman he knows as his mother, seems quite different from the woman who wrote him a letter, to Alex they did not seem like the same person, as his mother was extremely cold.
But none the less she was his mother and he doubted she would give bad advice, and even more so when the advice made so much sense. Alex sighed as he sat down, crossed his legs and began to meditate, relying on the chants and breathing techniques of the [WUDANG HEART SUTRA] He began to slowly take in Qi, using it to nourish his meridians. The Yin-Yang symbol on his heart began to rotate slowly releasing jade green energy that was also moving into his meridians and slowly connecting each and every single one of them.
Alex"s upper body was bare after having lost his clothes to Nezha"s flames in the previous fight, however at the moment 86 bright spots of lights seemed to show up on his body. Some of them were hidden under his pants, but their glow could still be seen. All 86 spots had lights stretching from one to the other, almost like an interconnected network of stars. Everyone here, especially those who had their attention on Alex knew exactly what was going on with him, and it was quite a marvel to some of them.
Under their intense gaze, the 87th spot of light lit up, and it release a golden and jade green light that moved across his body until it met and lit up another spot of light. But it kept on moving and under the shocked gazes of everyone watching more an Korean of those spots of lights on his body kept lighting up. Within Alex"s body a great change was happening, a change that he couldn"t help but pay attention to as his perception of the outside world was cut off.
Alex might be crazy talented, but so far he has tried really hard to be able to catch up with others who have trained and went ahead of him. His rate of advancement could be considered nothing but monstrous, however only 50% of that advancement could be attributed to Alex"s talent, the remaining 50% had come about due to how hardworking he was. He was pursuing strength with a single minded focus, and Obviously he has no intention of slowing down until he gets what he wants.
The meridians within his body were slowly being lit up one by one, and once that happen, the green jade energy from his heart that came about by reaching the (YIN-YANG HEART PROTECTION) stage of the (WUDANG HEART SUTRA) was slowly encasing the meridians and sinking into it. His meridians were gradually transforming, with the jade energy sinking into them, they would become stronger and more resilient, but even then that was just one half of what the energy was going.
His meridians were expanded under the careful nurturing of the jade green energy, making them wider and giving them the capacity to draw more Qi into Alex"s body. But by this time such a change won"t be instant, it would take a while of careful nurturing for the green jade energy to completely transform Alex"s meridian. To be honest he was quite surprised by the current change as it was not mentioned in the manual when he studied it, however this was serving to worry about in the future, because right now his 101st meridian just lit up.
The lines that connected his meridians to each other was like veins for energy within his body, and these veins were also covered with the green jade energy that came from Alex"s heart, serving as some sort of extra armor for him. But almost immediately the next meridian lit up, and Alex"s body shuddered. Slowly the Qi within the area began to slowly gather towards him, his connected meridians expanded, pulsing and moving in tandem with his heartbeat. And then suddenly both the 103rd and 104th meridian opened up, shinning brightly as their lines were connected. Alex felt an abnormal amount of energy beginning gush into his body, and it seemed as if there was no end to it.
Three more meridians suddenly lit up, making it so that 107 meridians of Alex"s 108 meridians were connected and ready to completely form the Qi pathways that would in turn open Alex"s Dantian. The whole Arena was silent, every fight had stopped as all focus was placed on Alex. Even though he has not really been in the limelight, Alex was someone that had slowly become famous within the sect, and with his previous fight, there was practically no one in the arena who didn"t know who he was.

Under the focused gazes of everyone, the 108th meridian which coincidentally was located on the navel, right on top of the Dantian slowly began to light up, gradually becoming brighter and brighter. This particular meridian is known as the Dantian"s Gate, and it was incredibly difficult to light up and open. Most people spent weeks others months before being able to open it, the fastest record in the Wudang sect for opening the Dantian"s gate was three days, but right now under the watch of everyone else, the gate opened up. And the moment he did so, the world went bonkers.
