"La-la, tum-tee-da, lalalaaaa-tum-tee-da, lala-tumpy-dumpee-daaaa.... hmm?"
With an orange watering can in hand, Sarah was hopping happily from plant to flower while humming a merry tune, you could see her ponytail swaying cutely left and right with every hop she made.
But just before she watered the next flower, she noticed a heavy fluctuation in the Ki from heaven and earth and abruptly froze.
'This... it's moving towards Samuel's location? What could have happened to cause a distortion of such proportions?'
"Oh no... Something must be wrong, Samuel!" Sarah yelled in panic as she immediately dropped her watering can and ran to him as fast as she could!
When she arrived in front of his cultivation chamber, she very carefully opened the door so she would not be disturbing him in the midst of his cultivation. But when she entered the room and saw him laying on the floor, her eyes went wide from shock!
His entire body was shining as his skin was illuminated with bright and silver light from all the Ki he was absorbing, creating a massive maelstrom that was continuously and eagerly absorbed through all the pores in his skin. It was not just the quantity and speed of the Ki he was absorbing, but the fact that the Ki was entering his body from all directions!
Normally the Ki would enter a body through its meridians, and flow into a circuit towards the dantian. But Samuel was absorbing the Ki with each and every pore in his entire body, and guided it directly towards his dantian!
'Impossible! How can he possibly resist this much destructive force wreaking havoc in his body!?' Sarah shockingly asked herself.
*Booooooooom*!
The ground shook as a massive and bright silver light exploded from his body and blasted waves of Ki throughout the entire room against the walls!
"This...!"
'Did he just break through and reach the middle stage of the Ki Condensation!? From the moment I started running until now, it has only been a couple of minutes right?! Minutes for heaven's sake!'
"M-Monster!"
Sarah was so incredibly shocked that she lost her balance and fell backward with her but flat on the floor, a sudden disturbance that caused Samuel to sit back up and abruptly open his eyes.
The first thing he saw was Sarah, sitting opposite of him with her legs spread open wide. In her shocked state, Sarah had not even noticed that her current position enabled Samuel to get a clear view of everything between her legs, and since she was wearing one of her gorgeous knee-high dresses, he was able to see everything that she was hiding underneath!
Samuel was mesmerized! The sight of her fair and soft skin on her small and tender legs was making his blood boil, He followed her bare legs all the way up to her thighs and only stopped when he noticed the black and half-transparent panties she was wearing!
Since he has now refinement his body, and even reached the perfect stage, his vision was far sharper than it used to be. The thin transparent fabric of her panties that was tightly pressed against her skin, caused him to clearly see the form of her lips and the blond, curly pubic hairs it was hiding underneath!
He knew it was improper to stare between a girl's legs, but he couldn't stop himself! It was magically attracting all of his attention and made his mind stop working! Besides, he was also very curious, and turned fifteen only recently and had never even seen a woman without clothes before!
When Sarah noticed that she had accidentally broken his concentration and caused him to suddenly sit up and open his eyes, she snapped back to reality as well.
"What happened? Are you ok?" She immediately asked in a worried tone. But when he still didn't respond after having waited for ten seconds, her patience ran out.
"Helllloooooo! Samuel!!! Wake up!" She yelled!
"...Huh?" He replied a little dazed.
"I asked if you were ok?"
"Sarah... You..." He stuttered while he pointed between her legs.
"Hmm?" That was all that she could say while she curiously looked where he was pointing.
"..."
"You...!"
"I... Ehh... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to look I swear! It was just the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes!" Samuel said feeling slightly guilty.
Sarah's held her head down while she pressed her dress between her legs so he couldn't see it anymore, she couldn't look into his eyes anymore, she was just too embarrassed.
"You... You saw didn't you?" She asked him nervously.
"No... ehh, I didn't see anything, please, you don't have to worry." Samuel lied, thinking it was better to lie this time.
"Y-You... you didn't?" Sarah asked suspiciously while she raised her head and studied his eyes as she waited for his answer.
Seeing her stare suspiciously at him like that, he started sweating a little. "I... I just broke through and was still a little dazed so wasn't really paying much attention hehe."
When Samuel answered his question, she could clearly see all the signs of someone that was lying. His body temperature raised, he started acting nervous, and his pupils very noticeably enlarged. It was very obvious to her that he was lying, and that he was very bad at it as well, which was only one more positive thing she could at to his list.
"Hmm... Although I still don't really believe you, I shall let it go this time. It's my fault it happened anyway, plus I've seen yours as well so I guess this makes us even hehe." Sarah told him.
'You call this even? I could barely see it!' Samuel thought, but of course, was smart enough to reply something completely different.
"Anyway... What are you doing here anyway?" He asked her curiously.
"Me...? Ehh, yes, do you have any idea how big of a disturbance you caused when you were meditating? I was afraid something was wrong so I hurried over to check on you."
"Hmm... I've been doing nothing special I think?" He asked her dumbfounded.
"Nothing special!? Normal people absorb less than ten percent of the Ki that you do and aren't glowing like the sun either! If you don't want to tell me, I would of course understand it but I'm curious, how can you use your entire body to absorb the Ki without dying?" Sarah asked him curiously.
He finally understood what she was talking about, other people would indeed have died if they had done the same. So after thinking about it, he decided that instead of explaining it to her, it would be quicker if he showed it.
"Haha... Oh that, yes let me show you." He said as he pointed his index finger at her and started absorbing Ki through it.
Under Sarah's disbelieving eyes, his index finger started attracting waves of Ki from outside the building and began to glow in bright and silver light, illuminating the entire room in the process.
Samuel kept the Ki inside his finger and held it there so she could study it. Sarah came a little closer and was shocked to see that despite all the ravaging energy, his finger was completely fine!
"This...! W-What did you do? How did you refine your body? She couldn't believe it, she had never seen or heard anything like this before!
"Oh, I just kept refining it until it the Ki couldn't destroy it anymore, except for my brain of course haha." Samuel casually answered like it was something completely normal that he did.
"You... You have reached perfection!?" She asked with her mouth and eyes wide open!
"Yes... let me show you!" He proudly said as he took off his shirt and showed her his perfectly robust, powerful, and stacked upper body.
There he stood before her, carved out of marble by the gods themselves, with a faint silver glow randomly spreading underneath his skin, giving her the impression as if he was something holy, something so beautiful it wasn't allowed to be touched, and could only be revered in admiration!
"Perfect..." Was the only word that escaped softly from her mouth.
