My already refined Qi was spent, but if I meditated and increased the size of my Proto-Core, maybe next time I will be able to keep the summoned hand around for longer.
But before that, I finally had time to refine the Qi, which was deviated by the Divine Dragon's "blessing".
It was an arduous and slow process—take my Qi, separate it from my soul, refine it again and watch it become deviated by the Qi remaining in my body.
But after a day spent only on this, my Qi deviation decreased from 10% to 1%, which was much better.
As long as it stayed below 10%, I was safe from its side-effects. Even everything below 20% or 30% was easy to dismiss.
However, the higher the Qi deviation grew, the harder it was to convince a cultivator to get rid of it. Or purify him by force.
And there were still so many people in the Purple Dragon Sect affected by it… starting with Lin Chu.
