Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: Breakthrough to the Xiantian Realm Part 2

Inside a small bedroom sat a black-haired child, with two streams of black and white energy circling him. On his back slowly appeared a runic circle that slowly rose off his back and started levitating behind his back while growing in size; from a size of a few feet until it had a diameter of 8 feet. The circle was rotating slowly while to two currents of energy remained swirling around the boy until everything suddenly froze. The two streams of energy were immediately dispersed, and the runic circle began to glow a multitude of colors with its intensity increased by the second.

'It's time' Law thought while forcefully drawing in all the energy he could, and bursting through the barrier between the [Houtian]and [Xiantian] realm.

The [Xiantian] stage is the second stage of Immortal cultivation for Mortals. At this stage, one has a lifespan of two hundred years. Those who are naturally born from the Heavens and Earth such as Devas and Asuras start at this stage due to being born from nature itself and being the favored children of the universe. These races who are born from the Heavens and Earth are referred to as[Xiantian] lifeforms. However, due to cultivation techniques, Mortals too could transform their bodies into those similar to real[Xiantian]lifeforms since only[Xiantian]lifeforms can train to become an Immortal.

The Runic Circles Outer layer began emitting 6 different colored energy streams which rushed towards Law and engulfed him. The different types of energy were being streamed into his body at a rapid pace, tearing and rebuilding it; in a continuous cycle of creation and destruction. Around him formed a triple-layered lotus, with the outer layer consisting of 6 petals which corresponded to the runic circle's outer elements. Each Petal was releasing its version of a natural disaster on his room. One Petal was continuously releasing black streams of lighting trying to obliterate his furniture, while petals were respectively releasing wind blades, fire blasts, shock waves, summoning metal storms, and freezing his surroundings. His runic arrays were protecting anything from leaving his room, but his furniture wasn't so lucky.

While this was going on Law was concentrating on understanding the elements which were at the moment refining his body. The 6 streams of energy correspond to the 6 outer elements on the runic circle, which was of Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, and Metal. This was the perfect opportunity for him to get started with training his understanding of Dao, because of how intimate the process was.

Two days slowly passed before Law body released an energy blast would have leveled a few blocks if it wasn't contained by his runic arrays. The hovering runic circle quickly shrunk and once again inscribed itself onto his back and began to vanish under his skin. Feeling that his breakthrough had finally finished Law began to regain consciousness. Despite not eating or sleeping for that time, he felt refreshed. As he stood up, he shocked with how light his body felt, it felt like he had finally broken the shackles which were holding him back.

His energy reserves had more than tripled, and he felt he could control everything around him. He felt invincible like he was the god of all like he deserved to rule over everything. Just as his egotistical and manic thoughts were about to continue a shard of ice fell from the ceiling and smashed against his head, smacking him down.

"Damn, I almost went down the bad route, thank Truth something knocked me straight. That would've been shit, who wants to rule everything, that's so much extra work. Nah, I would rather have a comfy well-respected/feared position, and just mess with people who annoy me. Like a less psychotic Zelretch," Law said out loud finally surveying his surroundings. Everything in his room was ruined, except the walls and his window. His furniture was torn apart, his clothes either incinerated or ruined, his books were frozen and cracked into pieces. There was nothing left in his room that was salvageable. Luckily the runic arrays had done their job and prevented energies or auras from escaping or damaging his room's walls and roof.

"Fuck not this again," Law said while thinking up possible solutions. Nothing he thought of was feasible in the amount of time he currently had and decided to just practice his new abilities.

When breaking into the Xiantian realm as a fiendgod body refiner, certain techniques will give the user the ability to directly control the techniques specified elements. For example, Ji Ning's technique allowed him to control water and fire. Law's improved technique, on the other hand, allowed his body to gain resistance to the 6 elements and the ability to control them.

Deciding to just use his time to practice, instead of trying to salvage the broken remains of his belongings, so he decided to just practice summoning his elements. He started with metal because it would be a good way to create a test dummy. Summoning the elements was instinctual for him, thus he immediately created a large block of white metal in front of him. It wasn't a type of metal he recognized and was surprised by it. It felt cool to the touch and certainly felt tough.

Law quickly pulled back his fist and smashed the block in front of him, only to feel he hand starting to throb with pain, while the block was just shoved back crushing any furniture in its way.

Law looked down at his hand, only to see that he knuckles were broken, and his fingers bent inwards. Sucking in his breath, and holding back a scream of pain, Law slowly reset his fingers into their proper position. It was a gruesome job, but he had to get it done so that his hand could heal properly. He sat down clutches his hand in pain, for around 10 minutes before it completely healed. Law knew that he was strong enough to tangle with various superhumans in this world, but whatever metal he summoned was unnatural.

After healing he decided to start with water, because of less destructive nature of the element. When he summoned a stream of water, Law was surprised to see that it was a purple color and shone an amethyst when frozen. Law shot the ice spike at the block of white unidentifiable metal only to see it a quarter of its full length before coming into a full stop.

'Even water's this dangerous, huh. Maybe I should damage testing for another day.' Law thought while summoning a bolt of black lighting and obliterating a corner of the cuboid and blasting it to shreds. Luckily the arrays, stopped the shards before it could do more damage, but Law continued his testing unperturbed. Like the other elements he summoned, Wind, Earth, and Fire all had different colors along with boosted capabilities; Wind was green, Earth yellow, and Fire was grey.

He continued to test his new abilities for another day, lost in his little world when he heard a quiet knock on his door.

"Hello, Law are you in there. We're home early. Law are you in there?" Suzanne's voice sounded from outside his door.

"I'm here Suzanne, give me a sec to get ready," Law said hurriedly while being to panic. He quickly looked around his room, trying to see if he could hide anything but quickly realized it was impossible. He had just put the block of white metal into his ring when he heard Suzanne again.

"Are you dressed?" Suzanne asked after a few moments. Law thought for a few minutes, wondering if he should illusion his room, or alter his family's memories, before releasing a sad sigh.

"Yeah, I'm dressed," Law said as he opened the door. Suzanne eyes quickly grew, as she looked at him and then, her mouth opened in shock when she looked at his room. She stood for a few minutes shocked at the scene in front of her before she began yelling.

"Mom, Dad, Come Here, Law's done one of his experiment's again" Suzanne yelled while still standing in front of his room.

'Fuck Me' Law thought as he waited in his room with a resigned look.
