2 - Twin Towers

That night, Liu Chen went to bed early tired of helping his parents in the garden this afternoon.

Krrakk

Liu Chen opened his eyes when he felt pain in his body. He gritted his teeth so as not to scream.

The pain grew more painful as Liu Chen sat down from his lying position.

"A-what happened agghh", Liu Chen gnashed his teeth back.

Before long, he spewed out a mouthful of blood from his mouth. Liu Chen hugged his own body as a result of the pain that felt more painful every second.

One second was like one minute for Liu Chen at the moment. Liu Chen cried out in pain, he could not help but scream as the pain grew.

"Aarrkh"

Li Wei and Liu Hongli who were in the next room immediately rushed to Liu Chen's room to hear his screams.

When they entered Liu Chen's room, they were surprised to find Liu Chen on the floor hugging his own body and groaning in pain.

"Chen'er what's wrong? What happened to you Chen'er?!" li Wei said in a panic. He held his son's head in his lap.

Liu Hongli also approached and sat down beside Li Wei. "Chen'er what happened?"

"Arkkhh"

Liu Chen could not answer. He could not hear what his mother and father were saying because he was still trying to endure the pain.

Liu Chen again spewed blood which made his parents even more worried.

"Chen'er!"

Liu Chen gritted his teeth and endured the pain he felt arrived.

After more than 10 minutes, finally the pain slowly subsided, making Liu Chen somewhat relieved. His breath was soaked because he was tired.

Liu Chen fainted on his mother's lap.

"Chen'er!" said his mother while holding Liu Chen's cheek.

"I will move Chen'er to his bed" Liu Hongli said as he took Liu Chen from Li Wei.

Li Wei simply nodded and handed Liu Chen over.

Then, Liu Hongli laid Liu Chen's body on the bed. Liu Chen's clothes contained blood spots as he spewed blood several times.

Lin Wei, "I'll put on new clothes for Chen'er"

Lin Wei took the clothes in the closet in the room and replaced Liu Chen's clothes with bloodstains. Li Wei also cleaned up the blood that was still left on the edge of her son's lips.

After that, clean the floor. After he finished, he sat on the edge of Liu Chen's bed intending to wait for him to wake up.

Liu Hongli, "Wei'er, let Chen'er alone to rest"

Lin Wei was stroking Liu Chen's head affectionately. He turned his attention towards Liu Hongli. "I'm gonna stay here and look after Chen'er, I'm afraid something's happened to her"

Liu Hongli, "Alright, I'll be here as well. I'm also worried about Chen'er"

Liu Hongli immediately walked towards the bed. He held Liu Chen's left hand and drained his Qi to check Liu Chen's situation.

Until, he widened his eyes when examining Liu Chen's dantian. The dantian should have been a flawed dantian, but now. "It's..."

Liu Honglin seemed to be rendered speechless. "How can...?"

Li Wei who noticed the reaction from her husband immediately asked. "What's Li'er?"

"Chen'er..laterinya.dia..."

Li Wei, "Say the obvious!"

"Chen'er, this dantian.dantian is twinned with elements of fire and ice"

Li Wei was surprised not to play. "How come? Isn't Chen'er's dantian a handicapped dantian?"

"You check it yourself, Wei'er", Liu Hongli released his hand grip on Liu Chen.

Then it was Li Wei who was now examining him. After flowing the Qi to check what happened, he had the same reaction. He doesn't believe in this. The dantian that was supposed to be flawed and unusable, was now a special dantian.

A special dantian is a dantian that has an element in it. Suppose a special dantian of ice, then the person can create ice using his Qi.

Meanwhile, an ordinary dantian could also bring out an element. The person is free to choose to study any element, but they cannot freely learn all elements.

Because, if they have many elements then their cultivation will slow down. Also, they had to divide the space on their dantian. If it fails and cannot divide the space for each element, then the dantian will be destroyed and make the owner die. It is very difficult to divide the space on the dantian.

So no one wants to learn more than one element, because of the great risk.

Meanwhile, the special dantian had an elemental strength that was stronger than the element with ordinary dantian. Special dantian there are various kinds, not many people have it.

The fire and ice specialty dantian, had a thin line separating between these two elements. So that the owner of this dantian can emit elements of fire and ice. Without any risk.

The morning had now arrived, the sunlight directly entered into Liu Chen's room through the window.

Li Wei and Liu Hongli seemed to still be watching Liu Chen. They stayed up all night and no one slept because they were still worried about Liu Chen.

Liu Chen's eyes opened slowly.

"Chen'er!"

At first his vision was blurry, but over time it became clearer. He could see the worried faces of his parents. "Mother.father..?"

Li Wei immediately hugged Liu Chen because he was very happy. "Chen'er, you know? We're worried about you"

"I-mom.I have trouble breathing.uhuk.."

Li Wei instantly let go of her embrace and smiled while wiping away the slight tears that came out. "Sorry Chen'er, I'm too happy to see you regaining consciousness"

"What your mother said is true, Chen'er. We are very happy that you can quickly awaken" Liu Hongli said with a smile. He stroked his son's head.

"What's wrong with me?" said Liu Chen who looked confused.

"You passed out after a few minutes of shouting last night. What exactly happened to you, Chen'er?" liu Hongli. Li Wei nodded at the question her husband asked. He also wanted to know Liu Chen's answer.

"Night, I felt like my whole body was hurting. So I screamed. Am I bothering mom and dad?" liu Chen said gloomily.

"No Chen'er, we're worried about you. We are afraid that something will happen to you" Li Wei said as she stroked Liu Chen's head.

"Thank you, mother, for worrying about me" Liu Chen said with a smile.

Liu Hongli and Li Wei only smiled and nodded.

Until Liu Hongli remembered something. "Chen'er, it looks like you can cultivate. Now your dantian can be used and you can become a strong cultivator in the future"

"Really?!", Liu Chen was both surprised and delighted. He wanted to be like his brother being a strong cultivator. But because of his defective dantian, he undoes the intention. Now, there was another chance for Liu Chen. He will definitely not miss this opportunity.

Liu Hongli nodded. "Even your current dantian is a twin dantian of fire and ice"

Liu Chen tilted his head because he did not understand what he meant. But clearly, he was very happy at the moment because he could become a cultivator.

"Dad, I want you to teach me how to cultivate now" Liu Chen said excitedly.

Liu Hongli shook his head. "Not now, you've just recovered. Tomorrow then"

Liu Chen's face became gloomy. However it was not long before Liu Chen was happy again. Because he can still practice even if he has to delay tomorrow.

"All right dad"

"Let's not force yourself too much. Remember that" Li Wei said.

Liu Chen nodded with a smile.

"Now you rest. Mother and father will go to the garden" Li Wei said as he stood up from where he was sitting.

"Good"

Li Wei directly bowed his body. Then kissed his son's forehead while slightly rubbing Liu Chen's head. "Mother and father will be ready for the garden soon. Before that, I'll cook first and I'll deliver the food to you later after the food is finished"

Liu Chen nodded. After that, his parents walked out looking back first and smiled. They immediately closed the door.

Liu Chen rubbed his forehead. "Mother, I will be strong like brother and father in order to protect mother, father and sister" he said with a smile.

"What happened to Chen'er? How could his dantian suddenly turn into a special dantian. Moreover, that dantian was a fire and ice dantian where the two elements were opposite each other?" li Wei said as she looked at her husband.

"Either Wei'er, I don't know. But we should be happy that now Chen'er can become a cultivator. He could realize his dream of becoming the strongest cultivator", Liu Hongli looked at his wife with a smile.

Li Wei nodded. "I'm also happy that Chen'er can realize his desire to be strong. But..."

Li Wei looked at her husband in worry. "Chen'er has a twin dantian of fire and ice. What if someone wanted to kidnap her or if someone wanted to kill her because they thought Chen'er was a threat.

Ice is a very rare element. Plus, Chen'er's dantian is a twin dantian"

Liu Hongli looked towards the front and sighed. He said seriously, "I will protect him anyway. From the black stream as well as from my brother who is currently still looking for me"

Li Wei nodded. "I'll protect Chen'er from the bad guys"

Liu Hongli turned his attention towards Li Wei and smiled. Then nod. "We'll protect her together"

Li Wei nodded. They also left from there.

Inside the room, Liu Chen was very excited for tomorrow. He was already impatient to train with his father and become strong.

"I can't wait for tomorrow!"

Time goes on until the day changes. Liu Chen had already woken up early this morning because he was already impatient.

He cleaned himself first. After that, he came out of his room wearing light green clothes. Then the black hair is long enough tied back with a little hair in front. Also his eyes are black. He walked to the living room to wait for his father.

"I can't wait!" muttered Liu Chen with vigor.

After about 1 hour of waiting, Li Wei approached Liu Chen. "Chen'er, why are you here?"

Liu Chen replied with enthusiasm. "Chen'er is waiting for dad. Mom, I can't wait to train with you. Where is dad now mom? Is dad still sleeping?"

"Yes Chen'er your father is still sleeping. Since you are waiting for your father, then mother will make him wake up", Li Wei smiled towards Liu Chen.

"Mom doesn't need to, I'll wait-"

Li Wei had already gone towards his room before Liu Chen finished his remark. Liu Chen only let out a long sigh.

"Li'er woke up!", Li Wei tried to wake Liu Hongli who was still asleep. But Liu Hongli was quite difficult to wake up.

Li Wei directly held onto Liu Hongli's hand and directly...

Krakkk

"Aahhkk"

Instantly, a bone crack was heard with a scream.

Liu Hongli immediately got up and sat down from his lying position. "Who did this on-"

Liu Hongli was speechless when he saw Li Wei who was the offender who hurt his hand.

Li Wei let go of her handrails and smiled towards her husband as if innocent. "Darling, Chen'er is waiting for you. Why did you make him wait like that? You're also very hard to wake up. You better get up right now and meet Chen'er"

"But Wei'er, why are you bothering me to sleep?", Liu Hongli looked towards Li Wei.

"Color Chen'er seems to have been waiting for you for a very long time. Poor him"

"Alright", Liu Hongli blew his niupi which was slightly cracked. "It hurts so much, can't you wake me up so gently, Wei'er?", Liu Hongli stared at Li Wei as he continued to blow the niupi of his aching hand.

"You're hard to wake up. So there's no other choice. Now, meet Chen'er. If you don't see him now. Then..."

"Ah, i-iya, I'll go straight to Chen'er. See you, Wei'er!", Liu Hongli immediately stood up from his sitting position. He opened the door and walked away quickly.

When he was about to go to Liu Chen's room, Liu Chen was already in front of him. "What's the matter dad? Why did you scream?", said Liu Chen puzzledly.

"Ah, it's okay Chen'er. Nothing, nothing. Ah, we should just go train now", Liu Hongli pushed Liu Chen slowly to walk out.

Liu Chen asked no more. He immediately walked out of the house. Before that happens...

"Chen'er, Li'er we'll eat first. After that, only then can you train with your father Chen'er", Liu Wei arrived to come out of the room and said that with a gentle smile.

Both Liu Hongli and Liu Chen turned their heads when they heard the voice.

"Good mother", Liu Chen nodded.

"Well", Liu Hongli nodded as well.

They went to the dining room. Li Wei went into the kitchen to cook.

After he finished eating, Liu Hongli went to clean up first. After that, he and his son walked out of the house.

Liu Hongli intended to explain how to cultivate first. He would also supervise Liu Chen's training.

Liu Chen looked seriously listening. He listened to all the words of his father and nodded.

Liu Chen started to sit cross-legged and closed his eyes. He began to focus on sensing the natural energy around.

After sensing the natural energy, Liu Chen began to put it into his dantian slowly in order to avoid any mistakes.

Liu Hongli looked at Liu Chen. Liu Chanyi then managed to cultivate after 1 month of training. It was an average time for cultivators to be able to successfully cultivate for the first time.

"Will Chen'er also succeed after 1 month like her brother? Or longer?" murmured Liu Hongli while continuing to pay attention.

After all, Liu Hongli did not expect Liu Chen to succeed in less than 1 month. As a result, he was still proud of his son.

Because, Liu Chen originally had a flawed dantian. But suddenly had a twin dantian with elements of fire and ice. Which people with dantian is very rare.

There may even be only once every 1,000 years.

Time passed until 8 hours had passed. There was no sign yet of Liu Chen opening his eyes.

"Why hasn't Chen'er opened his eyes yet? Did Chen'er make it?", Liu Hongli immediately shook his head when he thought Liu Chen had succeeded. It was impossible for one to successfully cultivate for the first time with such speed.

"Did Chen'er fall asleep?", Liu Hongli walked towards Liu Chen and intended to wake him up because he felt Liu Chen was asleep.

But before arriving, Liu Chen had already opened his eyes which made Liu Hongli stop walking closer.

"I made it!", Liu Chen stood up from his seat and smiled happily.

Liu Hongli looked towards Liu Chen. Then, he was instantly shocked when he saw Liu Chen was at the 2-star beginner level with a single try.

Moreover the Qi around that was a little. Making someone would be difficult to raise cultivation. But at this time, Liu Chen instantly got a 2-star beginner level by cultivating for 8 hours. True true genius cultivation. Even a genius would not be able to be that fast. Liu Chen was more worthy of being called a cultivation monster.

"Dad, I did it! I made it!", Liu Chen walked over to Liu Hongli with vigor.

Liu Hongli immediately regained his senses from his shock. He stroked Liu Chen's head and smiled proudly at him. "You're great, Chen'er. You're a real genius. In one try, you did it"

Liu Chen smiled and nodded. "It's all thanks to my father who taught me"

Liu Hongli removed his hand from Liu Chen's head. He then slightly bent his body to match his height with Liu Chen.

"Listen to me, if you have power, use that power for good. Youunderstand?"

Liu Chen nodded. "I understand dad"

Liu Hongli stood up straight again. A voice can be heard by both.

"Chen'er, Li'er let's eat. I've prepared lunch"

Li Wei came out of his house and approached the father and son.

"Yes mother"

They also walked into the house.

"Darling, what are you cooking today?", Liu Hongli looked to the side, precisely towards Li Wei.

Li Wei turned her attention towards her husband. "I'm cooking poison"

Liu Hongli was surprised, "Darling, you're kidding me right?"

Seeing the look on her husband's shocked face made Li Wei laugh. "Of course I'm kidding. You think I really cooked poison?"

Liu Hongli pouted as he laughed at Li Wei. This made Li Wei laugh even more.

Liu Chen laughed when he saw his father and mother. They finally entered the house.
