After Toro skimmed through the first chapter of the qi path, he starts reading the second chapter.
Though he only roughly read the first chapter, Toro knows that with only this little knowledge he would make mistakes in his further cultivation.
So before he starts his first cultivation session later, he will read the qi chapter again to make no mistakes.
[Second chapter: the body path.]
[The first realm of the body path is the body tempering realm. In this realm, one will sense the spirit energy of heaven and earth, with the help of the [Sensing the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth Mantra]. The spirit energy is absorbed in the body to temper it.]
[There are five stages in the body tempering realm.]
[The first stage is the skin stage. In the skin stage you temper your skin with spirit energy.]
[At the peak of the skin stage, your skin will be free of impurities, it will be elastic to let other impurities from your inner body out, but it will also be hard as stone to protect your inner body.]
[The second stage is the muscle stage. In the muscle stage, you temper your muscles to the limit that they will contain no impurities and through your enhanced muscles you will gain strength, speed and flexibility.]
[The third stage is blood tempering. You will also infuse spirit energy into your blood, cleanse it from impurities to preliminary strengthen the organs and bones.]
[Your blood will also produce blood qi at this stage.]
[The fourth stage is the organs stage. At this stage, you will again cleanse your body from impurities. This time your organs. With cleansed organs your body will be able to produce more blood qi because your organs also will produce it.]
[Also your body will be able to perform better. You don´t need to sleep so often, you will have more perseverance and your body will be able to better absorb spirit energy.]
[Then there is the last stage, the bone stage. In the bone stage, your bones will be cleansed from impurities and they will be tempered to the limit, like the rest of your body.]
[With the tempered bones your body will more resilient and you can use the full strength of the previous stages without worries of damage to your body.]
[Besides that the body will also form a perfect cycle that will expel impurities that will be gained after eating or infusing other things in your body like body tempering medicine. Also through that perfect cycle, your body will produce body sense.]
[Body sense has the same use as qi sense. But the difference is that qi sense is an ability of qi and your body sense is separated from your blood qi and can also be used separately. Of course, it is more difficult producing more body sense than qi and in the body tempering realm, body sense can only see the innards of the body.]
