Battle Through The Heavens: Domination of The Ancient God.

'What is such a person doing this kind of place?' Yao Lao thought to himself.

He felt uncomfortable just by the thought of staying in the same area as the mysterious man.

He looked at his unconscious disciple and muttered, "Let's take it one step at a time."

Yao Lao raised his arm, and with his index finger, he touched Xiao Yan's forehead.

A warm and gentle Dou Qi entered Xiao Yan's body.

"Urgh!" The next moment, Xiao Yan groaned and opened his eyes.

"Teacher, why was I unconscious? Did something happened?" Xiao Yan asked while massaging his head.

"You! Brat dares to sleep as soon as we returned." Yao Lao glared at Xiao Yan and concealed the matter.

Xiao Yan nodded and did not give it any thought. After a while, he felt better and continued his training.

......

'Huh!' The next morning, Xiao Ning suddenly woke up with a groggy head. 'I am still alive,' he muttered after feeling the pain by pinching himself. 

Xiao Ning still had some lingering fears from the last night, and it was a miracle that he survived; he decided not to make any rash decision. 

After a few moments, his fear got replaced by the excitement of obtaining the Qi Method. Instead of rushing straight to cultivate, Xiao Ning took few deep breaths to adjust his state.

......

Qi Methods serve as the foundation for every person who successfully broke through the Dou Practitioner realm. Like Dou Techniques, the Qi Methods are also divided into four ranks: Heaven grade, Earth grade, Black grade, and the yellow grade. Furthermore, one can only practice a single Qi Method in their entire life. 

Hence, the person would have to re-train if they wished to change their Qi Method. 

......

Xiao Ning sat cross-legged on the bed and concentrated; soon, a string of characters appeared in his mind, which read, 'Budha Battle Art.' 

As he understood the name of this Qi Method, a shock appeared on Xiao Ning's face, and even though he was prepared for all possible outcomes, Xiao Ning never imagined that he got a Buddhist Qi Method. 

Moreover, 'Budha Battle Art' was tierless, meaning Xiao Ning would never know which tier this Qi Method belonged to unless he cultivates it. 

'Anyways, this Qi Method must be better than those available in the clan.' Xiao Ning thought to himself and decided to cultivate it.

He closed his eyes, and with a single thought, Xiao Ning controlled the pale-green Dou Qi, and it flowed through his Qi Pathways, creating a complex loop after which his Dou Qi returned to the abdomen. 

Usually, everyone's Dou Qi is attributeless and milky-white in color after they breakthrough and enter the Dou Practitioner realm. Only after cultivating a Qi Method will their Dou Qi gain the corresponding attribute and color. 

Yet, there are some exceptions, and they have a special Dou Qi like Ice Dou Qi and Xiao Ning's pale-green Dou Qi belong's to this category. It's just he was not aware of this. 

It took him a long time to complete the first revolution, and Xiao Ning continued to circulate his Dou Qi for a long time. After some time, the color of his Dou Qi in the abdomen changed from pale-green to green-gold. 

This process continued for the next half an hour, and only after all of his Dou Qi transformed did Xiao Ning stopped. 

Only now did Xiao Ning understood that 'Budha Battle Art,' along with Dou Qi, also enhanced his physique; after cultivating it to peak, his mortal body would transform to 'Golden Budha Physique,' invincible among saints. 

Xiao Ning's eyes flickered, and he thought, 'It seems that Saint here means a Dou Saint.' Furthermore, this Qi Method also included a Dou Technique, 'Myriad Budha Hands!' 

The only flaw was that Xiao Ning had to be a Dou Grandmaster to have the qualification to practice the initial level.  

After pondering for a while, Xiao Ning felt that it might be a Heaven-tier Qi Method and a special one among it. It cultivates both Dou Qi and physique. 

Xiao Ning raised his hand, opened his palm, and a stream of Dou Qi rushed out of his abdomen. It traveled through the Qi Pathways and stopped at the acupuncture point on his hand. 

Only after becoming a Dou Grandmaster could one release the Dou Qi outside their body, and Xiao Ning was only a Dou Practitioner. 

The Dou Qi could not leave his body and concentrated on his palm, causing his fair palm to become bright green-gold colored. After seeing this scene, he nodded in satisfaction.

Suddenly Xiao Ning remembered something and took out the second Jade Slip and hoped t contained a suitable Dou Technique. 

There was still some fear in his mind. Yet for a suitable Dou Technique, Xiao Ning gritted his teeth and placed the Jade Slip on his forehead. 

Unlike before, the Jade Slip did not crumble; instead, a white light shot out from it and entered Xiao Ning's mind. 

After a while, his eyes opened, and joy flashed in them. Contrary to his imagination, this Jade slip contained a few seals, and it would only open after Xiao Ning has the corresponding strength.

"Radiant Fist! Earth Grade: Mid Tier!" Converge all of the Dou Qi at the acupoint on the hand and punch out. The compressed Dou Qi would flood into the opponent's body and attack the fragile organs.

This Dou Technique has three layers, and after successfully practicing the first level, Xiao Ning's attack strength would double. Similarly, the second and third levels would increase his strength by four and eight times. 

'Sure enough.' Xiao Ning thought and smiled bitterly; this technique is more difficult to cultivate. 

To cultivate the first layer of 'Radiant Fist,' one would have to collect and compress their Dou Qi in acupoints present on the arms. Furthermore, to do this, one had to have a powerful physique and delicate control over their Dou Qi. In order to achieve superb Dou Qi control, one needed a superior spiritual strength. 

"This technique seemed to be tailored for me." He muttered after a while. Budha Battle Art gave him the confidence to practice this dou technique. 

Thinking about the future, where he could simultaneously use 'Myriad Budha Hands,' and 'Radiant Fist' caused his body to tremble in excitement.

Even Xiao Ning did not know that his imagination would earn him a new title in the future.
