Listen up! (Please give me recommendations, favorites, and rewards! On the homepage of Qidian, there's a special section for new books, featuring the characters in the book, dressed in cool outfits!)

In the dormitory, Xiao Chen had a separate room at school, but in the three years since he enrolled, he had hardly stayed there a few times, and the furniture inside was covered with a thick layer of dust! Fortunately, he had a dormitory, or Xiao Chen might have had to sleep on the streets!

The dormitory fees were paid at the time of enrollment, so Xiao Chen didn't have to worry about it.

Xiao Chen didn't have time to deal with the dust on the furniture. He sat cross-legged on the bed, ready to start practicing the cultivation technique given to him by the Heavenly Elder! After all, he had longed for strength for too long, and now that he had a chance to turn things around, Xiao Chen was eager to get started.

After sitting down, Xiao Chen began to recall the cultivation technique transmitted to him by the Heavenly Elder. Xiao Chen didn't know how the Heavenly Elder had transmitted it, but as he recalled, a scroll of parchment with the cultivation technique suddenly appeared in his mind!

The parchment was vivid, as if Xiao Chen had seen it before. It must be the Heavenly Elder's memory, but he didn't know why it was transmitted to Xiao Chen's mind.

"Clash of Creation and Heaven Seizing?" What a weird name! However, Xiao Chen didn't pay much attention. Generally, powerful cultivation techniques have strange names. For example, in a biography novel he read on his mobile phone called "The Bodyguard of the Campus Beauty," a great god named Lin practiced something called the "Xuan Yuan Dragon Control Technique." Look at that, what a bombastic name! But that cultivation technique was incredibly powerful. This "Clash of Creation and Heaven Seizing" should also be very powerful. Since it can "clash," it must be quite formidable. The "Creation and Heaven Seizing" in "Clash of Creation and Heaven Seizing" should be an even more powerful existence, like breaking through the clouds and stepping into the universe.

Thinking about this, Xiao Chen began to practice the cultivation technique according to the method described in "Clash of Creation and Heaven Seizing." Although this cultivation method was different from the body strengthening techniques used during internal energy cultivation, Xiao Chen was very familiar with the acupoints and meridians in the human body due to his early internal energy training.

Although Xiao Chen found "Clash of Creation and Heaven Seizing" a bit strange, he had never encountered anything like it before, so he gritted his teeth and continued practicing.

According to the information left by the Heavenly Elder in Xiao Chen's mind, the first step to becoming a cultivator is to generate a sense of qi within the body. After forming this sense of qi, one must follow the sequence of the cultivation technique to circulate this qi, also known as primordial qi, through the body's meridians. As long as the circulation is successful, it means one has crossed the threshold of cultivation.

Starting is always the hardest part, but for Xiao Chen, who was a compulsive perfectionist, it was nothing. Repeatedly circulating the cultivation technique to generate a sense of qi is a tedious task for most people.

But for Xiao Chen, who had been training in the basement for over a decade, it was nothing.

Over and over again, Xiao Chen tirelessly circulated the cultivation technique. Although he felt nothing in his body, he believed the Heavenly Elder wouldn't deceive him, so he continued to force himself to circulate the technique.

8 PM, 9 PM, 10 PM, 11 PM, 12 AM... Midnight... Although Xiao Chen could tirelessly circulate the cultivation technique, he began to doubt whether "Clash of Creation and Heaven Seizing" was suitable for him. After so long with no response, was it his poor aptitude or a problem with his cultivation method?

To cultivate, does one need to go to a place with abundant earth and heaven energy? Just as Xiao Chen was doubting, he suddenly felt a slight coolness in his chest. Then, he clearly felt a small stream of qi starting from his chest and spreading through his body's meridians. As Xiao Chen continued to circulate the cultivation technique, the stream of qi grew larger!

The sense of qi! At this moment, Xiao Chen wanted to exclaim in surprise. He had successfully cultivated a sense of qi, which meant he was about to become a cultivator! Thinking about this, Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and continued to quickly circulate the cultivation technique, making the qi in his body grow and begin to circulate through his meridians...

As the amount of primordial qi in Xiao Chen's body increased, it began to penetrate his entire body's meridians, causing him to cry out in pain. This was the first time the primordial qi was infused into the meridians, and the sensation was excruciating, but Xiao Chen did not stop.

From a young age, he only believed in one thing: to be the best, one must endure the greatest hardships! Without enduring the bitter cold, how can one enjoy the fragrance of the plum blossoms?

This was also the reason why Xiao Chen had trained in the basement for over a decade. However, sometimes, no matter how hard one tries, the wrong material is useless. One can grind an iron rod into a needle, but not a wooden one.

Xiao Chen's constitution was poor, and no matter how much he trained, he could not cultivate internal energy. Therefore, when the primordial qi was generated, Xiao Chen was so excited that he gritted his teeth and endured the pain, determined to hold on to this hard-earned success.

Finally, under Xiao Chen's forced cultivation, every meridian in his body was filled with primordial qi. This primordial qi began to circulate continuously in Xiao Chen's meridians, circle after circle. At some point, Xiao Chen realized that the pain of the meridians tearing apart had disappeared, replaced by a warm and comfortable sensation. The primordial qi seemed to be nourishing the meridians as it circulated.

After an unknown amount of time, the sky began to turn a fish-belly white. Xiao Chen felt the primordial qi circulating in his body suddenly stop and quickly surge towards his dantian. In an instant, all the primordial qi poured into Xiao Chen's dantian, making him feel as if it was about to explode. The primordial qi continued to compress in the dantian, and Xiao Chen's face turned red...

Is something wrong? Xiao Chen clenched his teeth, not knowing what to do. He wanted to stop the circulation of the cultivation technique, but he didn't dare to stop arbitrarily. After so much effort to cultivate a sense of qi and form a circulation, he was unwilling to give up!

This was the strength he had dreamed of for over a decade!

"Boom—" Xiao Chen felt his body suddenly jolt, as if something inside had burst. Although there was a painful shock, there was also a sense of long-suppressed release.

This situation forced Xiao Chen to stop the circulation of the cultivation technique. If he didn't stop, who knew what might happen next. Strength was important, but one needed to be alive to possess it!

After stopping the circulation of the cultivation technique, Xiao Chen quickly checked his body to see if there were any problems. However, before he could start the examination, a voice suddenly rang in his ear, startling him!
