Hutton approached the medicine pool, its waters shimmering with an otherworldly glow. With determination in his eyes, he stepped into the pool, feeling its warmth envelop his body. As he submerged himself completely, a tingling sensation coursed through him, as if a thousand tiny hands were gently massaging his skin.
The water seemed to possess a life of its own, pulsating with energy as it worked its magic on Hutton. He closed his eyes and surrendered to the sensation, feeling every muscle and bone in his body being cleansed and strengthened. It was as if the pool was purging him of all impurities, leaving behind only strength and vitality.
’This should take up to an hour or two’ Emperor Chen thought with a calm look on his face as he observed Hutton in the medicine pool.
And so, Minutes passed, but to Hutton, it felt like an eternity. When he finally emerged from the pool, he felt reborn. His skin glowed with a newfound radiance, and his muscles rippled with power. With a smile of satisfaction, Hutton knew that he had been blessed by the healing waters of the medicine pool, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
’I feel more lighter than how I was both in my past life and now’ Hutton thought while he observed his body while flexing his body.
"How are you feeling now?" Emperor Chen asked with a calm smile on his face.
"I feel like am a hundred times stronger" Hutton answered with a delighted smile on his face.
"That’s good to hear, now let’s get to the next phase" Emperor Chen said with a light smile as he flicked his fingers together again.
’The next phase?’ Hutton thought with a blank look on his face as the place he finds himself in began to change again.
While Hutton was going through a life changing transformation with Emperor Chen, Ling Jun could be seen standing at the ominous looking door located at the ending of the hallway which is in the second floor of the ancient pagoda.
"Don’t tell me Hutton left me and went straight into the room?" Ling Jun asked himself with a bitter smile on his face. Earlier, he went to Hutton’s room to tell him it is time for them tofind out what’s behind the door at the ending of the hallway.
But since he didn’t see him in his room, he has begin to have the thought that Hutton have already gone into the room.
"Oh really, then It looks like I will just have to go in there and get him" But just then, Ling Jun heard a cold voice from a distance away from him.
"Who is that!?" Ling Jun exclaimed as he quickly turned to find out who it is. But as soon as he turned, he felt a very swift and lethal force landing on his right neck.
Bang!
’Huh?’ Ling Jun thought with a blank look on his face as he began to lose consciousness. Not long after, he fell weakly to the ground.
"You shouldn’t have come out of your room kid" the person who sneaked up on Ling Jun who apparently is Viktor Sledgehammer said with a cold look on his face while he stared at Ling Jun on the floor.
But not too long after, he shifted his gaze towards the door as he immediately stepped forward and got closer to the ominous looking door.
"I hope what they are paying me to do this is worth it" Viktor muttered with a solemn look on his face before he pulled the door open.
’Hmm, it seems like we have trespassers’ Emperor Chen thought as he suddenly saw Viktor going into the dark colored room.
But just then, a thought suddenly came into his mind which made him to look at Hutton who sitting cross legged on a seating mat as his eyes are closed.
’I think I will use him to test your potential’ Emperor Chen thought with a light smile on his face as he suddenly flicked his fingers. Back at where Viktor is, right now he is just wandering Ina dark and empty room that he still haven’t seen the end of it.
’How big exactly is this room? And how the hell am I going to find Hutton?’ Viktor thought with a displeased look on his face as he keeps on wandering about in the dark room.
But in the next moment, the room suddenly changed unexpectedly into a medium sized coliseum that strangely have people cheering very loudly at the audience stands.
’Huh? What is going on?’ Viktor thought with a confused look on his face. But before he could understand what is going on, the gates that is below the audience stands suddenly opened as a large group of men that looks like gladiators ran out with weapons in their hands while they charge towards Viktor.
"Ok, although I have no f*cking idea what is going on here, it seems like I will have to kill this sons of b*tches if I want to stay alive" Viktor muttered with a crazy smile weirdly on his face as he also charged towards the gladiators.
And so, while Viktor is having a fight of his life in a medium sized coliseum, Hutton could be found in an empty room sitting cross legged as he meditates while Emperor Chen stood not too far away from him as he observed.
’I need to feel the qi that is in the air’ Hutton thought while he tries to calm himself down while trying to feel his surroundings.
And so, As Hutton sits cross-legged in the empty room, he closes his eyes, focusing on his breath. With each inhale and exhale, he seeks to connect with the subtle energy flowing around him. As his awareness deepens, he begins to feel a tingling sensation in his fingertips, a gentle pulsation of energy that seems to emanate from the very air itself.
Emperor Chen, the consciousness within him, whispers guidance, urging him to relax and open himself to the qi. With a serene determination, Hutton surrenders to the moment, allowing the energy to envelop him. His senses sharpen as he becomes attuned to the subtle vibrations of the room, feeling the ebb and flow of qi like a river coursing through his veins.
With each passing moment, Hutton’s connection to the energy deepens, his consciousness expanding beyond the confines of his physical form. In this state of heightened awareness, he feels a profound sense of peace and unity with the universe, as if he has tapped into a source of infinite wisdom and power.

Emperor Chen’s presence guides him, offering insights and revelations that transcend the limitations of his mortal mind. Together, they dance amidst the swirling currents of qi, exploring the boundless depths of consciousness and existence. And in that moment, Hutton realizes that he is not merely a young man sitting in an empty room, but a vessel for the divine energy of the universe itself.
After a few more minutes past, Hutton finally opened his eyes as he took in a deep breath. After that, he looked at Emperor Chen with a grateful and respectful expression on his face as he said.
"Thank you Emperor"
"You don’t have to mention it, I choose you for this mission so I have to help you in any way I can" Emperor Chen said with light smile on his face.
"But still, I have to thank you for the impact Honorable Emperor" Hutton said again with utmost respect and reverence as he did a slight bow.
"Ok that’s enough of that. What I want you to do now is to perform a simple punch" Emperor Chen said in a dismissive manner.
"A simple punch?" Hutton asked with a confused look on his face.
"Yes, a simple punch" Emperor Chen confirmed with a calm smile on his face.
’Seems like I won’t use my internal force’ Hutton thought as he got into position to send out a punch into empty air.
And so, Hutton stood in the center of the small, sparsely furnished room, his eyes gleaming with determination. He had just completed his initiation into the world of cultivation, and a surge of excitement coursed through his veins. With a steady breath, he focused his energy, channeling it into his fist. With a simple yet purposeful motion, he thrust his fist forward into the empty air before him. Though no visible force emanated from his hand, he could feel the subtle hum of power as his chi surged forth, a testament to his newfound abilities as a cultivator. With a grin of satisfaction, Hutton knew that this was only the beginning of his journey towards mastery.
"How do you feel?" Emperor Chen asked with a knowing smile on his face. After taking everything in a long with a deep breath, Hutton answered with a satisfied smile on his face.
"I feel overpowered"
