I moved switched my attention to the boxes that contained those gems. Going over, I touched them and activated chaos cultivation, while focusing on the boxes
Just as I did that, the boxes vanished and I could feel a certain energy rushing into my body.
'This isn't like before. Is the material of these boxes different that they gave me that feeling or is it after the leveling up that I could feel that.'

'These ordinary boxes can provide 200 stats to all? But they seem to be made out of ordinary wood.'
'Let's try this on the trees.'
As the pathway into the forest had opened up as the box had vanished, I moved near one of the trees, and touching it I activated cultivation.
Absorbing the tree, I could feel the same feeling as with the boxes but, this one was a bit different. It was a humongous flow energy compared to the boxes.
I checked the stats again and all the stats had increasing by 507.
Calming my excitement I devoured all the trees around me. Going to one tree from another in a frezny, I cultivated them all.
Before I could into a maddening emotion of joy with such a comfortable my thoughts were broken by a few notifications.
"Fuck, that thing increases too slowly. By this much cultivation, it just risen about 2 %."
"So, that's why it is necessary to have chaos efficiency otherwise, I would die cultivating and won't breakthrought the mortal realm."
"What should I do? I can't just cultivate every tree in the forest otherwise it will be bare open and I wouldn't even reach 100%."
I thought for a while and something came onto me.
"Didn't the characters in the novels of earth cultivate through something called 'Qi' in the enviornment. Can I do that?"
"They first try to sense 'Qi' and then absorb it into their body, I guess."
"I should try to do it. It would be good if I can and if I can't I'll just go with the trees. So, the lords of nature help me into sensing this 'Qi' or whatever."
I coiled myself on the ground and tried to take a meditate position but having no limbs, I gave up trying to do that and just laid there. I tried to feel everything around me. Anything that I could sense, did not escape the grasp of my mind.
I could feel a light wind coming from my right towards left. I could feel the rustling of the leaves.
I sensed somthing flowing from the ground into the trees, very light movements but I could feel.
I never thought that my senses could have advanced so much.
I was experiencing the time of my life, experiencing all sorts of minute movements around which I usually I wouldn't even think about.
Leaving my sense of thoughts, I preserved my determination to find 'Qi'.
A while later, I could feel the spirit water from that huge lake, its waves which didn't seem to be driven by the winds. I could sense something warm below. Oddly enough I couldn't even feel there was a 'hut' just a few tens of metres away from.
I lost myself to this sensation of warmth and was about to try and delve in deeper I could feel the movement of earth beneath me in someway.
'Is this tectonic movement of this planet? No, they are too minute to be felt, it might be just a minor earthquake from far away.
I moved my senses away from earth and tried to concentrate on air. It had a smell, of nothing but trees and fruits. It also carried some of the spirit water as water vapour. I could sense it all.
'If I can sense all this and not sense 'Qi' even now. Then, death for the trees it is.'
I decided to stop the sensing and start devouring, but before I could do it. I felt something coming out of my body. It wasn't smell or anything material, but it just seemed like the energy that I absorb during cultivation.
'Am I leaking energy?'
Before I could panic, I also noticed a certain amount of the same energy entering my body through all of my cells.
'Am I losing or gaining energy?'
Upon closer inspection I noticed, it wasn't that I was just that I was losing energy, I was gaining the exact same amout, and it's source almost faded after a few milimeters away from my body.
'Maybe it's due to the high concentration of this 'Qi' that, I am able to feel the energy near my body. It should be the 'Qi' those people in novels talked about.'
'But why am I losing and gaining 'Qi', should have let that chinese monk finish his lecture about 'Qi' before killing him. Damn, I didn't even attend science classes. How am I supposed to discover anything about this?'
