The concern of gathering resources was suppressed as of now. He decided to start practicing the art of Pill-Sword saint. The water element was the only category of acupoints which remained closed. Li Meng was the first one to go through the breakthrough. He started to ingest frost energy from the spring into his body.
Cold energy rushed into Li Meng's Qi veins and started to assault its walls. He could feel icy spikes colliding against the walls, trying to pierce through. He applied a layer of Qi around the walls and began the process of rotating it according to the art. The frost spring was proving to be a difficult resource to digest.
Li Meng's body took a long time to accommodate this pure form of energy. The keeper recommended opening up all the other elemental acupoints before trying to absorb the frost spring. True to his advice, the other elemental acupoints helped in the assimilation of this energy and began to rotate freely throughout his body.
After a long time, he felt the first set of acupoints. It resonated with the frost energy and began to loosen up. Li Meng absorbed more and more frost Qi into his body. He was freezing all over. The energy began to assault his acupoints, and Li Meng couldn't help but spit out blood. To his surprise, it was frozen all over.
"The advice worked after all. The frost spring's energy is potent enough to freeze your body all over. You should take it slowly and steadily."
"I would have to open up a couple of acupoints before I can rotate the energy freely throughout my boy."
"I would still recommend taking it gradually."
"I will be preparing the other formations required to assimilate the energy for your break-through within the artifact. We need to isolate the artifact in a certain location, preferably somewhere where a lot of Qi fluctuations occur regularly. Cultivators are quite sensitive to law energy and could easily feel the fluctuation when an abnormal situation occurs nearby.
We need a safe space where Qi fluctuations are a common occurrence."
"Wouldn't I be breaking-through within the artifact, why would any fluctuation be visible in the outside world?"
"When you assimilate a law within your cultivation base, you essentially draw the energy from the world around you. When a cultivator break-throughs the King level, they get connected to the low energy around them and hence can establish contact with the environment or the world in general."
"They could feel a new connection being established to the very same source. Although the change could only be noticed by those who have powerful cultivation base, at least a Qi emperor, we shouldn't take any chances for this occasion."
"A place where Qi fluctuation is a common occurrence…" Long Tao spoke to himself, and a sudden idea came to his mind. "How about the places where we decided to go find natural opportunities and gather resources? The sea of Bones is an ideal place."
"It might be a location where fluctuations define the environment around, but we need something more secure. The major concern which is bothering me is the event in which a random cultivator might think the artifact to be a lost artifact of high value."
"Any artifact above the Emperor level extrude law energy on their own. When you break-through the level of Qi King, the artifact will start drawing energy from the environment to help you establish a connection with the world. Even I don't remember the exact details of what might happen."
"That does make these locations quite dangerous for us to lurk in. Advance level Qi Kings are a common occurrence in these places. Even if I break-through, I would be able to compete with intermediate Qi Kings at most."
"I need to explain some details about your break-through. When a cultivator can establish a law within his cultivation base, he/she can gain another set of energy from the world. Normally people refer to it as the Law blessing/ Blessing of the world, but the most popular and accepted theory is that the newly established law absorbs energy from the world after its birth to stabilize itself."
"The cultivator who establishes it naturally gains a lot from this process and hence gets a cultivation boost. The boost differs from person to person as well as the category of law you manage to establish. Human laws tend to give the least output, with only a slight boost in energy. Earth laws, on the other hand, can provide a huge energy input, sometimes even helping the person to directly promote through a realm."
"Heavenly laws, on the other hand, lead to heavenly blessings, which enables a cultivator to directly promote through two stages. The amount depends on how long the cultivator can sustain the Heavenly blessing."
"The greater number of laws you establish more is the energy gained from them."
"What about Chaos laws?"
"That is uncharted land, whose outcome is still not clear to me. Only when you can touch the realm, could we possibly know what benefits that realm brings to you."
Long Tao was demotivated for a second. He was trying to sail through a territory whose details are not yet clear to him. The Keeper couldn't provide him with the necessary details which could help him with an easy sail.
"We need to stake it all with each break-through. You are trying to experiment with theories which were proven to be impossible by our ancestors. It is natural to fail sometimes. You just need to keep pushing on. Even if Li Meng isn't able to establish a Chaotic law, you would still have 9 other avatars to go with. Just remember to be persistent through the process."
"Each failure would give us a new set of parameters to develop on while trying the next break-through."

The frost energy rushed through the Qi veins and slowly opened one acupoint after another. The amount of damage incurred during each opening was massive and required a short break before continuing. After a long period of time, the awaited day finally arrived.
Li Meng was sitting amid the artifact absorbing the frost essence when a large pop was heard from his body. He puked out another pack of blood, but unlike the vents before, his eyes remained closed. He didn't take a break and continued to ingest more and more energy. His body started to glow, and black substances were pouring out of the pores.
The metamorphosis has finally begun. He finally reached the apex of acupoint opening level and the fourth metamorphosis was about to take place. After a huge amount of filth poured out of his body, his bone frame began to crack down and modify itself back up. Metamorphosis was never an easy task to undergo, as the pain of bones being crushed to power was excruciating, but he persisted.
