The Urban Dao Child.

Chapter 510 - Rescue.



Yang Dao knocked on the door and waited for the person inside to allow him entry. Alisha had gone to deal with a few restless creatures. However, the door was not opened. Suddenly, Yang Dao sensed the spirit energy flow becoming erratic. He suspected that something must have gone wrong inside. 

There could be a lot of things that could mess up, the spirit gathering array could malfunction, the spirit circulation inside the body could go astray and lead to spirit deviation. The Dao Child was extremely sensitive to the flow of spiritual energy. He exerted his strength and pushed open the door forcefully. 

At this moment, he did not notice that his hair was flickering between golden and black. This happened because unconsciously his strong desire to get inside the room invoked the dao inside him. 

...

In The Heavenly Dao Palace, Feng Yun and the other three were sitting inside their respective rooms, with their eyes closed. Suddenly, all four of them opened their eyes and stared at the void seemingly listless. They all had faint smiles on their faces. 

Feng Yun said, "His change has started." 

On the other side, Laohu Bai said, "His invocation has caused Dao Yin to resonate as well." 

Ryu Jinshi said, "Ironic, how the representation of order and control is using the Dao resonation without any knowledge." 

The three of them spoke and fell silent. Atsuji Kurogame said, "Extreme control can give birth to anarchy. The roles of white and black can exchange. This Dao, the ever-changing and ever-evolving." 

...

Yang Dao walked inside the meditation room and he found Athena sitting in a lotus mudra. Her face was laced with drops of sweat, a few strands of her hair stuck to her forehead. Her face had no trace of blood. Yang Dao understood by the spirit fluctuations emitted from her body. He did not hesitate and moved forward and came to stand behind the girl. Her eyelids were fluttering, she was awake but she could not divulge her attention from this problem.

He placed his palm on the center of her back, he could feel the robes being wet from sweat. She was going through a tremendous amount of pain. He said, "Do not resist."

Then he channeled his spirit essence inside her body. Yang Dao's spirit essence was far more purer and vital than a normal cultivator and Athena could sense this difference. Tonight she was charging to break through another level when her spirit flow suddenly went astray. She was comprehending her cultivation sutra when this happened. 

The technique she was using had been imparted to her by Jing Shui, however, she had yet to master it completely. Only when it was too late did she find out that her spirit flow has gone astray. The estranged spirit flow can make one cripple or even worse, a blood-thirsty maniac. How it worked was simple. The astray spirit flow will slowly corrupt the rest of the spirit energy inside the body. 

The attribute of the spirit energy will change after following a certain route inside the body. That is why it was emphasized that one must never be too hasty or careless when cultivating. Yang Dao did not know the correct path of her cultivation technique. But what he came up with was an idea that if not used properly can kill Athena. 

He decided to exhaust and dispel all the spirit energy inside Athena's meridians, to help her. His spirit energy was smooth, and under his meticulous manipulation, the golden spirit essence traveled along the girl's meridians. 

Spirit energy from the two sources resonated with each other and Yang Dao's spirit essence being purer attracted Athena's spirit essence. This worked like a sort of magnetism. The purer your force the more attractive it is. The only way to release this trapped spirit essence was through the acupoints. Yang Dao said, "I will cast a barrier around your dantian to prevent the rest of your spirit essence from coming out. You can now be calm, I will deal with the rest. Trust me."

The girl could not reply and used her actions to show him her thoughts and gave up on the control of the spiritual essence in her meridians. Yang Dao cast a barrier around her dantian, to prevent the spirit essence inside from acting up. 

Then he slowly guided the rest of the spirit essence inside her body outside the meridians and let it all out from the acupoints slowly and steadily. He was not only focusing on spirit manipulation, while his right hand was placed on Athena's back, but he also used his left thumb to press a few spots on Athena's left side to open the closed acupoints. 

This was basic knowledge of acupressure points the cultivators learned when they started on this path of defying the heavens. The process was long and required a lot of patience. Yang Dao did his best and it took him fifteen minutes to dispel the spirit energy inside the meridians. 

Athena's body was not shivering from pain anymore, however, she was still not at ease. Yang Dao said in a low voice, "I will retract my essence from inside now." 

Then he focused on taking back his essence from her body. Then he retracted his hand and fell down. He dispelled the barrier around her dantian as well. Athena took a deep breath and calmed down. She opened her eyes and stood up feebly, her body was still not completely recovered from the sequel. She turned around and saw Yang Dao lying on the floor with a pale face. 

She panicked, but before she could do anything the door was knocked again. 

"Athena, child open the door. Just evoke the restriction, I will help you." the voice belonged to Jing Shui.

The room door was controlled by a small array plate, the cultivators would sit in practice while holding this disc, in case they come across some trouble they can break this disc and let the guardian come inside and help them. 

Athena did not hold this disc since this was a normal session. She took out the array from the space rink and broke it into two with a snap. The door flung open and Jing Shui's figure flashed inside. The rooms had strong space blocking arrays equipped to prevent some strong old antiques from taking advantage and sabotaging others. 

Jing Shui hurriedly came over, she was worthy of being called a saint alchemist. She found Yang Dao prowled on the floor with his face pale and faint breathing. She came to his side and asked, "What happened?" 

Athena did not hesitate and told her everything in a low voice. The lady took out a green spirit pill from her space ring and said, "This boy did not know that manipulation of someone else's spirit energy is taxing on soul energy?" 

She fed Yang Dao the pill, and almost instantly color returned to his face. She gave a pill to Athena as well. The girl stabilized herself after that. Alisha was also present at the moment but she was guarding outside the room. 

Athena asked, "Master, how did you find?" 

"How else, the life indication Jade with your imprint dimmed and I was worried so came to check up. I only found Alisha standing outside, looking for her young master. Now you tell me, do you understand the gravity of this situation, you could have died just now if not for this kid." said Jing Shui in a deep voice. 

She was angry that her disciple was careless. Athena knew that she was in the wrong and knelt down in front of the lady and said, "Master, I apologize, I will not be so careless in the future. I will take all the punishments you decide." 

Jing Shui sighed and said, "I do not want this to happen again." 

Athena nodded with guilt in her eyes. She asked, "Master, Dao?" 

The lady said in a soft tone as she held the boy in her arms, "His soul energy is exhausted, the soul-rejuvenating pill will appease his condition but he needs proper rest at this moment. I will send him back to the cloud palace. You go back to your room. There are two things that I am very curious about though. Call in Alisha." 

Athena nodded and she opened the door to call Alisha inside. The girl came and asked in concern about what happened to Yang Dao. Athena gave him a little summary and the girl calmed down. Jing Shui asked, "What were you two doing here at this hour?" 

Alisha said, "Elder, Young Master wanted to give Yue Jing the armor he bought over from the free planet. The reason he choose this time was to avoid staring gazes of Yue Ming's people."

Since Jing Shui has been told about the situation earlier the girl decided to tell her the truth. 

Jing Shui nodded and asked, "How did he break inside this room?" 

Alisha shook her head and said, "I do not know elder, I was dealing with some service disciples." 

This made Jing Shui raise her eyebrow and take a deep glance at the boy lying in her embrace.
