Lust System in the Murim World

Chapter 18 Dark Breathing Technique

Kim didn't dare to stay long in Yeosho's house. He had too less time to prepare for tomorrow's battle. After having a little fun with her, he left the house.

Yeosho was given an opportunity and now how much she tries to gain from that opportunity depends upon her.

Kim immediately reached his house. He closed the door and moved to the middle of his house. Since his house was basically one giant room without a kitchen or bathroom, there was some space in the middle.

Yesterday, he used this space to practice his Basic Dagger Technique. And now, he had to train Dark Breathing Technique.

He sat down and opened the book. From a small age, he had a good memory. Even though it was perfect, he could still remember any content he read for a long time.

It wasn't something extraordinary. For many brilliant students who studied with him, this kind of ability was normal. Some were born with it, some developed it.

So, as he started to read the section of the Dark Breathing Technique, he began to understand more about the Darkness itself.

Refining Internal Energy into Dark Energy. It was the core part of the Dark Breathing Technique but it was only one section of the entire book. The other sections described how the darkness spread out to the world.

Darkness could be represented by two aspects of human life; Shadow and Evil. Both represented Darkness because both were born out of it. Shadow was born into darkness because something blocked the light.

Evil was also born into darkness because nobody pulled it toward good. When nobody tried to pull evil toward good, it developed a unique feature. If no one pulls him, then he will pull everyone.

It was just like how Light was the nemesis of Darkness. Evil became the nemesis of Good, by turning good into evil, by pulling everyone into darkness. It was the core belief of evil.

But, for a martial artist, Darkness was nothing more than an attribute. It was a powerful attribute, something that would allow one to counter all other attributes, but that was it.

Even though the content was right in front of them, most people wouldn't understand the core belief of evil. It wasn't something like killing people or robbing them.

Evil represented a dark shallow hole that will pull everything and everyone inside of it. That was the true meaning of evil.

As for Shadow, the meaning was hidden in its name.

Manipulation!

Controlling something or everything with your shadow. But, it didn't just mean controlling people but also meant controlling himself. It was a power that allowed him to control himself.

And, that hid the meaning of 'Controlling your aura'.

Most people used Dark Breathing Technique because it allowed them to control their breath and sneak into places even during the day. It was possible because shadows can only be formed during the day.

Others didn't understand it properly. Darkness would be strong when there is light. That means during the day, a person can hide exactly as proficiently as he could hide during the night.

In just two hours, Kim not only read the entire book but also understood its core meaning and beliefs. Everything about darkness was already inside his mind and it shocked him for a moment.

It wasn't because of how fast he read or how fast he understood. It was because the thing that he understood was actually being used in real-time.

He still remembered the days when he learned those theorems of mathematics and could only write them down during examinations. It would take years down the line to actually use those and until then, he would've forgotten some of it.

So, being able to use what he just learned made him quite excited. He couldn't help but remember this feeling.

It was the same feeling when he finished remembering the entire book before the exam. The next day, his heartbeat would soar and during the exam, he would become excited to finish all those answers.

That same kind of feeling was coming out of him.

When this feeling arose in his heart, his mind became a little impatient. He was like a kid who was excited to show off what he just learned. But, he controlled these feelings.

His control over his feelings and his lust was slowly getting stronger. So, he concentrated his mind on refining his internal energy into dark energy. But before that, he had to absorb the spiritual energy from the surroundings into his body.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Once he absorbs spiritual energy, he must channel those energies through his meridians into his dantian. Upon reaching his dantian, it would transform into internal energy.

The ranks of martial artists were measured in years. That's because to transform spiritual energy into internal energy, one would need to separate spiritual energy into Pure Energy, True Essence, and Vitality.

Among these three, Pure Energy in itself is internal energy. It just required to get purified by the Ember of Life. True Essence would be an important part of this training because it needs to be absorbed by Dantian to evolve it.

As for Vitality, that's the most important aspect of a martial artist. It didn't just represent how long one would live, it also represented how long a person can hold the power of youth.

As a person grew older, he would have a hard time using the strength of his youthful days. But, martial artists of older age were normally considered monsters.

Because they had the power that can deter the ground and sky. It was the power that can rupture the sea and split the mountain. Such things would only be possible because of the vitality that they accumulate from spiritual energy.

Ember of Life represented one's life force. It was a blue flame that burns inside one's Dantian. So, when vitality was separated from spiritual energy, it would merge with the Ember of Life.

So, a martial artist only needed to absorb spiritual energy into his dantian. Once it reached the Ember of Life, the pure energy of spiritual energy would transform into Internal Energy and get separated.

After that, vitality would be sucked into the Ember of Life. Finally, the remained essence or True Essence would slowly spread out and collide with Dantian from inside.

It would slowly improve the size and durability of one's dantian.

Normally, this could be done while practicing Martial Techniques but there was a problem. It would take days just to purify spiritual energy and create internal energy.

And during this purification, one can't add more Spiritual Energy into the dantian since there would be no use for that. Hence, martial artists flow spiritual energy throughout their bodies during training.

But, Breathing Technique would be different.

Dantian wasn't a physical part of the body. It was a mixture of physical and spiritual parts. Thus, one can control it to its very core. Like how athletes control their breath after a lot of practice, Dantian could be also controlled.

But, this level of control would be a hundred times higher. Once a person entered Breathing State, he would be able to separate Vitality and True Essence from spiritual energy first.

Normally, it would be pure energy that would separate from spiritual energy. But, by separating Vitality and True Essence, that person uses the vitality to improve Ember of Life and True Essence to improve Dantian while Ember of Life purifies the rest of spiritual energy.

And doing so, that person could also pull more spiritual energy into his dantian and separate those two, let the Ember of Life and Dantian absorb them, and send that remaining spiritual energy to get purified.

Once a person's dantian expands with the help of True Essence, he could pull more spiritual energy into it. Normally, a person would need to wait until spiritual energy was purified, vitality was absorbed by Ember of Life and finally, True Essence was merged with Dantian.

But now, since the middle and the last part of this whole process were done by that person himself, the only remaining thing would be refining internal energy from the remaining spiritual energy.

That's why Breathing Technique was much more efficient since it would able to catch up to three days of training in just three hours. But, there was also one downside to this.

While using the Martial Technique, a person not only refines internal energy, expands dantian and lifespan but also trains his physical capabilities using spiritual energy.

But, using the Breathing Technique, it wouldn't be possible.

pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ Despite knowing that, he didn't care. In his eyes, physical training can be done after he finishes his Breathing Technique. After all, it would only take three hours of Breathing Training to compete with three days of Martial Training.

So, after he finished understanding the entire process, he closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and started breathing. Each breath allowed him o absorb a large amount of spiritual energy from the air.

And, that spiritual energy would separate from normal air after it entered his body. Instead of flowing through his veins, it flows into his Dantian through certain meridians.

Upon reaching there, the main process of the Breathing Technique begins.
