I am an Eldritch Entity-Chapter 232: Continuous jump in stages

Eryndor had almost an eighty percent confidence that he would be able to handle the level two Pure Qi pills despite being at level one, which was the Qi Gathering realm.

It wasn't that he was being arrogant but that he had facts to back himself up.

It was mentioned on the internet how those who had reached the limit of control, which was close to thirty percent, were able to consume higher levels of pills which had the characteristics similar to Qi Gathering pills and Pure Qi pills.

Of course, those at level three couldn't consume pills at level four because they simply couldn't be manufactured due to the Cosmic Limit.

Since I have a control of fifty percent, I should be able to handle higher level pills as well.

Eryndor thought, consuming a level one pill. The only reason he didn't have a hundred percent guarantee but eighty percent was because he basically had no experience doing this before.

He took a deep breath, and immediately began controlling the incoming Qi as soon as the pill began melting in his mouth.

Pure Qi pills were popular for a variety of reasons, one of them being that they were one of the few pills which could be used in combat.

If the consumer had a high degree of focus and control, they could easily manipulate the Qi from the Pure Qi pill through the correct meridians, thereby replenishing their Qi reserves while in battle.

With his high level of control, Eryndor was easily able to manipulate the incoming strands of Qi into the correct meridians.

It was only a level one Pure Qi pill, and combined with his insane control, of course it would be easy.

Eryndor took a deep breath, and began calculating how far he was from the next breakthrough.

Alright, not too far, these Pure Qi Pills are a big help indeed.

Eryndor didn't attempt to practice his cultivation technique by circulating the incoming Qi through that route of meridians.

He would only guide the incoming Qi into the correct meridian and leave it there.

At the same time as when the pill completely dissolved, his Qi began burning up.

His body felt like it was submerged in water, when suddenly the sound of glass breaking resounded, breaking away all the illusions.

He was now at stage eight of Qi Gathering realm!

Eryndor didn't stop. This was a huge opportunity to keep upgrading his stage.

He now had three of both level one and level two Pure Qi pills.

He popped another level one pill into his mouth and began manipulating the incoming Qi.

This time, there was no breakthrough, but he could feel that he was already close to mid level of stage eight.

Without stopping, he popped in another level one pill.

Manipulating the incoming rush of Qi was no easy task despite how high his control was. Eryndor could only wonder how others did it.

It was very likely that they would have to devote their complete attention just to keep their control over the Qi and guide them into the correct meridians.

It would definitely not be like Eryndor's situation where he had the leisure to think about different things.

Of course, that was only in the beginning when you consumed the pill. In the middle stage, the rush of the incoming Qi would be the highest, therefore you would need much more control to tackle this part.

There were rumors that a higher quality pill, specifically those with lines on the pill, wouldn't have such an uneven distribution.

This pill line wasn't based on a level, but purely the quality of a pill. Any level of pill could have a pill line.

Only extremely talented alchemists who had immense control over each and every aspect of the pill refining process of that specific pill and had a complete detailed knowledge about all the ingredients involved would be able to bring a qualitative change to the pill, thereby forming lines over it.

Finally, passed the middle level of stage eight as well.

Eryndor thought while clenching his fist.

This time he took a short break. As mentioned earlier, manipulating the incoming rush of Qi still took plenty of focus, consuming his mental strength.

After he rested his mind enough, Eryndor popped in the last level one Pure Qi pill which he had.

Another round of Qi began rushing into his body, which he expertly controlled to head towards the meridians of his practice technique.

Even though he wasn't using his practice technique, as in, manipulating the Qi throughout the circuit, those set of meridians still acted as the storage compartment.

Eryndor heaved a sigh as the difficulty of controlling the Qi somewhat lowered.

This was the exact reason he had used level one Pure Qi pills before the level two ones.

He wanted to get some experience controlling the immense rush of Qi, no matter how less useful it might amount to when using a higher level of pill.

Towards the end as his level one pill was about to be completely dissolved, Eryndor checked the situation in his meridians.

Just a little more to enter stage nine!

Eryndor gritted his teeth, and consumed the level two Pure Qi pill immediately. He had run out of level one pills.

As soon as there were first signs of melting of the level two Pure Qi pill, Eryndor instantly understood the difference between two levels of the pill.

The rush of incoming Qi was way more immense, and forceful.

There was no time to think about miscellaneous things as he began focusing on controlling the Qi.

The Qi levels in his meridians began rising steadily.

Just a little more.

He continued manipulating Qi, increasing the amount in his storage.

Finally, when half of the level two pill was consumed, he broke through to stage nine of Qi Gathering realm.

It almost brought a problem though, as he nearly succumbed to cultivation deviation when the illusion of breakthrough distracted him from manipulating the incoming Qi.

Good thing nothing happened.

As he finished the first level two pill, and glanced at two more on his palm, he thought.

Maybe I can reach the Qi Condensation realm?
