After going back to the orphanage and entering his room, Toro directly sits on his bed to start cultivating.
While being extremely excited he opens the book and reads it.
[This book will explain some things about cultivation and how to start on it.]
[First, what is cultivation? To be simple, cultivation is trying to reach the dao. And if one wants it to be complicated then cultivation is the embodiment of one's own path, that one is trying to comprehend through the journey to immortality and the seeking of the dao. But in the end, everyone has to decide for themselves what cultivation is.]
[Now let´s start on the basics of cultivation.]
[There are two paths of cultivation.]
[The qi path and the body path.]
[The qi path focuses on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth also called spirit energy, converting it to oneself´s energy and using it to reach immortality.]
[The body path focuses on absorbing the spirit energy and using it to temper the body to reach immortality.]
[Both paths are using different methods to achieve the same result. Everything, even things on different paths always end with the origin and the same result.]
[First chapter: the qi path.]
[The first realm of the energy path is qi condensation. Using the mantra that is written down in this book one will be able to easier sense the spirit energy. The mantra is called: [Sensing the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth Mantra].]
[Then one has to absorb the spirit energy. To reach the first stage of qi condensation one has to open the first of nine meridians.]
[That happens automatically after one has absorbed enough spirit energy.]
[Also with the produced qi you can sense the innards of your body, and with enough qi even a little bit of the outer world. This is because your qi is produced from your meridians that are connected to your mind. This is called qi sense.]
[After opening the first meridian one has to flow the spirit energy through the meridian and converting it to one's qi. The qi then flows out of the meridian in one's own body and into the dantian.]
[Filling the dantian completely one can try to open the second meridian, enlarging the dantian and purifying and condensing the qi.]
[The qi condensation realm has 9 stages. After one opened the last and ninth meridian one can prepare to enter the foundation establishment realm.]
