Chereads / The vampire King / Chapter 6 - The Hunt

Chapter 6 - The Hunt

Zac trained day and night, he began his day first with Ninx leading him through meditation .

Focusing on his Chi the life energy that all living beings have,Ninx had shown him how to move his chi around his body to strengthen himself.

Zac had learned that he could draw small amounts of chi ,from the world around him, slowly his chi was increasing, what had started as a fist sized ball of chi, within him had grown, now it was the size of a basketball.

After meditation and chi cultivation,

Zack would fight against the clans weapons master, Zack would battle with all types of weapons, swords spears, knives, staffs, he was taught them all.

Zac had lost count of how many times he'd been stabbed, how many times he lost an arm.

Thanks to his fast regeneration powers, he would regrow his lost body parts almost instantly .

Zac would be given a small break, where he would receive a small amount of blood, never enough to satisfy ,him only enough for him to survive, hunger was his constant companion .

Zac had been told that by restricting how much blood he took, his body would be forced to consume more chi from his surroundings, to help sustain him and he would evolve faster .

The last lesson of the day was magic , he had tried his hardest to do as he was instructed, and focus his thoughts on what he wanted the magic to do .

He was to turn his body into mist, by focusing on his body and his intention.

Zac had failed to turn his body to mist, time after time, hours past like this before he managed to turn his hand into mist, on his first day of training.

Zac had been training and learning, like this with only two hours sleep per day.

Being a Vampire he did not require much sleep, but the training he was going through, pushed him to the limit, he had no sense of time .

He did not know how long he had been training , and living this way.

Zac had no concept of anything, other than to learn everything from the dark elf teachers.

Time passed and Zac had grown, he had control over his body, his chi and his magic .

Zac had learned the art of the sword, and martial arts, he was ready to hunt .

Zack's mind was focused on one thing, he was in a very primal state of mind, his body was close to a breakthrough, where the chi would increase and the mana that was his magic would increase, and break his body down and remake it stronger, but he could not break through and evolve until he hunted.

He must kill the beast, and consume the crystal that contained the chi and mana of the beast, and he would have to drink the blood, and eat the flesh of the beast .

If he survived he would evolve, or he would die and the beast would live.

Zack was taken from the city, into the wilderness of the large forest ,that stretched out from below the mountain, that contained the hidden city of the dark elves.
