It was almost like there was no end to my Qi. It flowed abundantly, and my body was like a hungry black hole that made it disappear as fast as it entered.
The influx of energy felt like there were a lot of needles poking me underneath my skin. It was painful, to say the least, but before those needles could push harder, I felt the formation channel the energy away, ensuring a steady flow that did not allow painful clogging.
Nyssa and Merry watched closely, their expressions a mix of concern and encouragement. "You're doing great, Nick. Just focus," Nyssa said softly, her voice soothing.
The energy continued to build, and I felt a breakthrough was imminent. My body trembled with the intensity, but I kept my focus, following the techniques Nyssa and Merry had taught me. The Qi followed my directions, never disobeying or trying to pile up difficulties in my way.
