A figure looking to be about seventy years of age, with a somewhat aged silhouette, was sitting cross-legged on a soft couch at the front of the great hall. It was the Tiger List master, Jinyu Hou Helian Wuji, with whom Zhaoyang had had a chance encounter.
There wasn't much of an aura emanating from Helian Wuji's body. Embracing Elixir is the third realm for a gang qi warrior, having already cultivated the Core Essence Qi. The so-called "Core Essence" refers to a martial artist "Embracing the Origin and Preserving the Unity," able to gather all the Qi Force within the body, forming a unique Core Essence Qi.
Martial artists' use of force stresses control and release. If the first two realms of gang qi are about release, then an Embracing Elixir martial artist has reached the level of gathering.
