Death… And Me

3038  The Change

Rean touched Foliana's forehead, sending a waves of Soul Power and Spiritual Energy inside. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

*Tud...*

Immediately, Foliana lost her consciousness, falling on Rean's arms, who put her lying beside Tony. "Well then, Tony, are you ready as well?"

'Obviously!' Tony had been waiting for it forever. How could he not be?

*Zush!*

Suddenly, Roan appeared on Rean and Foliana's side, looking at her.

That obviously caught Rean's attention. "What is it?"

Roan nodded and sent his Spiritual Sense inside her body. "I'm curious about that Red Lightning of hers. I don't think we have any Red Lightning Hawk back in Lisan, so it is very interesting. Just go ahead and do your work. I'll be watching."

Rean shrugged but didn't say anything. Even he had to admit the Red Lightning seemed very good. A mix of Lightning and Fire Elements, but different from people manipulating both elements, her Red Lightning was already like these from the moment she called it.

Roan then looked to the side. 'Sister Orb, record everything for me. I want to take a better look later. Her Red Lightning is a pure yang element, so I think I can make good use of it together with the idiot's Light Element and yang Energy.'

[Oh! Alright, leave it to me.]

Rean ignored Roan's comment and just removed the girl's clothes before touching the Dantian area. The normal Werdlem Stone was located above the Dantians, making the bridge between the Spiritual Energy and the Dantian itself. Following that, he send a small amount of Spiritual Energy all around her body, filled with his own Light Element.

Thanks to that, he could easily see every meridian connection. "As expected, her breakthrough into the Energy Gathering Realm was pretty terrible. She only opened a little over 70 meridians before doing it. Oh well, since I've come this far, I might as well open the rest."

Rean's Lightning Element then flowed into Foliana's body. His hair changed into a mix of Black and White, and he exchanged Elements with Roan so he could use Roan's Dark Element as well. The Light Element protected Foliana's Meridians while the Dark Element corroded and destroyed everything that was blocking the paths.

As Rean did all of that, Roan paid attention to the Red Lightning Hawk's Bloodline in Foliana's body. Globian mentioned that the bloodline had a partial will of its own. It wasn't a consciousness, far, far from that. Nonetheless, it seemed to influence the user.

*Bzzzzz...*

As Rean opened the meridians that were closed, the Red Lightning decided to make an appearance and fight against his Light and Dark Element. "Hum? The bloodline is fighting back. This Red Lightning Hawk's Bloodline must be quite highly ranked, even within the Divine Demon Beasts races."

Rean smiled and used his Light Element to get in contact with that bloodline. As if it suddenly received a calming pill, it settled down and didn't intervene anymore.

Rean continued to open the meridians until he reached 97 of the normal 100 that humans usually have. As for the last three, he left them closed. "These last ones shall be Foliana's own test of dedication. If she manages to open them on her own in the future, then her determination is real."

Roan glanced at him. "Those last three are the hardest, and even in this Werdlem Empire, I haven't seen anyone with them open yet. The only reason our System Sect disciples managed to open them back in Lisan was because we taught them the secrets behind it."

Rean didn't seem to mind. "She is not our disciple, just someone we are helping as payback. Besides, 97 meridians open already puts her at the very top of this planet."

Roan pondered a bit and agreed. "I guess I can agree to that."

With the Meridians opened, Rean switched back to feeling them. He closed his eyes, and his concentration increased. His consciousness now focused on the Normal Werdlem Stone. To be more specific, he focused on the 100 meridians connections to the Werdlem Stone, which included the three closed ones. Rean stayed still for thirty-some minutes straight, not moving at all. He memorized every single connection to the Werdlem Stone while picturing how he would make the swap. The Divine Werdlem Stone had, after all, a different shape. Just taking one out and putting the new one in place would not work. He had to rework those connections without causing impediments.

Sometime later, Rean used his other hand to grab Tony, sending his Spiritual Sense around him. He checked every path that the Divine Werdlem Stone used to receive the Spiritual and Divine Energies before sending it all to the Dantian. 'Hum... the Divine Werdlem Stones has a few extra paths than the necessary amount. I guess it makes sense since different races have different meridians. Well, that's a good thing. I can use the extra paths to help the transfer of energy between the stone and the dantians. It should give Foliana a slightly better flow in both directions.'

Finally, Rean's hand left Foliana's body. His finger then pointed down, and his Spiritual Energy took the form of a blades.

*Zin! Swish!*

That blade slashed around the Werdlem Stone in an extremely fast movement, changing shape to perfectly match the surface. It took less than a second, and the normal Werdlem Stone was already out of Foliana's body.

Rean used his Spiritual Energy to block all the blood, not letting a single drop leave the veins. Looking inside, he could see a little bit of Foliana's Dantian, which made him smile. "Even her Dantian has the same Red Lightning Color."

Roan nodded. "Pretty much like our Dantians, Black and White."

Rean didn't waste much time. His Spiritual Energy Blade on his fingers changed shape once again.

*swish, swish, swish, swish...*

Several extremely small pieces of flesh were cut inside the hole where the Werdlem Stone was located before. Now, that hole had a different shape, a shape identical to Tony's shape. "Well then, time to connect everything."

And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
