Comprehending the Origin Qi System (Continued)

Open Veins Stage.

Chaos Qi circulated through Xiao Qing's body, slowly advancing along the meridian routes required by this world's cultivation method.

Ordinary cultivators needed to draw Source Qi into their bodies at this step, opening their blocked "source veins" inch by inch. The process was painful and lengthy; even the most gifted required several months.

Every simulated source vein emitted a dim Chaos glow, crisscrossing and weaving into an energy network that covered every corner of his body.
