Gate of Opening, Gate of Healing, Gate of Life, Gate of Pain, Gate of Limit, Gate of View, Gate of Wonder, Gate of Death, the eight gates in the human body that restricted the amount of energy one's body amassed. They protected the weak physical bodies and started to show their mysteries to Yi Qiu...
However, as the Eight Gates were incomplete, Yi Qiu only obtained the methods of Gate of Opening, Gate of Healing and Gate of Life. He only knew the positions of the other gates.
What was different from Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique was that Eight Gates had really strict demand on Physique and Senses. Even the first layer needed 12 Physique and 12 Senses. However, the Eight Gates didn't need him to train everyday like the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique needed him to. If one's stats weren't high enough, then one had to increase their stats. Eight Gates itself was a method, a way of opening gates. Once one knew about it, one knew about it. At most, the speed of the gate opening will increase with familiarity.
Overall, the Eight Gates were decent. Although the after-effects of using it was quite huge, it was decent when used in the dungeon. Moreover, after opening the Gate of Healing, one wouldn't have any stamina restrictions. Along with the Monk's future speed buff, if he faced any problems in real life he would be able to run away.
He closed his laptop and opened the dungeon selections. He could select to challenge a new dungeon now:
Solo random dungeon (Difficulty: Easy): After passing the simple dungeon, one can unlock other difficulties.
Unlocked dungeon:
Challenge Level 1 - Pumpkin Field ravaged by boar (Simple, Hard). After succeeding hard difficulty, one can unlock elite difficulty.
Challenge Level 1- Barren Gold Mine (Easy, Hard, Elite). Elite difficulty is the highest difficulty of this dungeon.
PS: After completing the final difficulty of the dungeon, one will obtain the highest reward from the dungeon, rare drops and dungeon collectibles. Once completed, the dungeon will disappear.
Yi Qiu focused on the solo random dungeon and chose to take the challenge. Although he could project it in the air and use his right hand to control, apart from times when he was opening chests, he would use his mind. That was because it looked a little silly to his hand and touch the empty space.
Wolf Pup Cave:
Challenge Level: 2
Difficulty: Simple
Dungeon Requirements: Slay the Mother Wolf that protects the cave
The familiar dizziness... When Yi Qiu opened his eyes once more he was in a desolate-looking plain. The ground was covered in withered grass and the small hills of different heights had a bunch of yellow shrubs struggling to live. In the distance, an Arbor Tree stood tall, standing out from the rest and showing off its once healthy body. However, its withered leaves and branches showed signs of its life slipping away.
There was a mellow smell in the air. When wind blew across, Yi Qiu touched his head. This wasn't good news. This wind meant that his main control method, pepper spray and quicklime had to be timed correctly. He didn't want to feel the same pain that the Dog-Head Man and Brown Tooth Boar had experienced.
"Kachi." Walking on the ground that was covered with dried leaves, it was impossible to not make noise. However, Yi Qiu was at ease as till now he still hadn't noticed the enemy.
"Aooo!" The Mother Wolf whose body was totally snow white appeared in Yi Qiu's field of vision. It noticed Yi Qiu and then after a period of stunned silence, it gave out a high pitch howl.
The howl of the wolf was pretty much the most familiar wild animal sound to a human. After all, God's rough draft when making the wolf, the husky, was everywhere in human society.
Yi Qiu didn't understand the wolf language. Maybe he could try giving it a listen once he reached Level 17 and learned the Universal Language. However, he was roughly able to guess that she was saying something like 'kill this human and give the pups something to eat'.
A Mother Wolf that was brown with streaks of black pounced out from the bushes on the hill to the side of Yi Qiu! Yi Qiu wasn't prepared at all as his eyes were focused on that white Mother Wolf!
"Kong!" The brown Mother Wolf didn't manage to bite Yi Qiu. That was because when it was about to bite his neck, Yi Qiu seemed to have gone against gravity, dodging with a weird movement.
"Hu hu..." Although he wasn't bitten Yi Qiu was still under huge pressure. The Wolf's mouth was just 1cm away from him, a thick smell along with the scent of death made it hard for him to breathe!
If this was in the past, Yi Qiu would have been startled and unable to move, his legs would have been so soft that he couldn't them...
However, after cultivating Ki and after the class baptism, he realized that he was much tougher mentally. This was why he was able to calm down quickly.
Yi Qiu stared at the brown Mother Wolf that was 100 meters away from him. If not for him using Reflex Dodge to avoid, that fellow would have made him into a meal.
Yi Qiu squinted. He started to activate the Ki in his body to let it rotate around his body swiftly!
Repeatedly Ki surged about swiftly in his body! Due to the restrictions of his meridians, they could only cycle endlessly in a small range! The extremely quick Ki rotation made it go out of control! His weak meridians started to feel a stabbing pain like it couldn't take the heavy burden!
Finally, when the stabbing needle-like pain that Yi Qiu was bearing was about to reach its maximum, Yi Qiu finally directly the Ki toward the weakness protection layer in the human body - Gate of Opening!
"Hong!" Like someone who was stepping on both the throttle and the brakes suddenly letting go of the brakes. The Ki surged into the Gate of Opening! Instantly Yi Qiu felt like an invisible thing was being opened. It was like he was used to wearing something heavy and now that thing was taken off. A hard to describe lightness caused his pupils to constrict!
"Eight Gates, First gate, Gate of Opening, open!"
The first gate of Eight Gates, Gate of Opening: Opening the restrictions of the human brain, allowing one to use 100% of their body's strength.
Effect: Opening it would consume at most 10% of Life value, raising one's Agility to 16 (Based on Physique), raising one's Strength to 16 (Based on Physique), and brain restrictions removed. Each second would consume 1% of Life value (Based on Physique) and stops once the skill is stopped.
PS: If Physique is lower than 12, forcefully opening it will directly lead to death! If Senses are below 12, human shall suffer a pain check every second, if one fails one will be in a stunned state. The length of time depends on Senses.
PS: Brain restriction removal can allow you to ignore skills and try to use any bodily skill! But, please pay attention. If your base requirements are not enough, your body will still be damaged and you might even die!
"Hong!" 16 Strength was 10 times more explosive and faster than normal humans! Wind blew crazily by Yi Qiu's ear to describe its unhappiness. The heavy winter gear pressed tightly on Yi Qiu's body, hair... Pui! Thank god for being bald. The beauty of its compatibility with aerodynamics and the smoothness to avoid friction made Yi Qiu like a tiger with wings!
"Peng!" Yi Qiu punched the weak nose of the brown Mother Wolf which was totally unable to keep up with his speed. 10 times the strength of a normal human pretty much caused the Wolf's nose to cave it. But the strong skull blocked it! The power from the Strengthening Ability was like a knife as it carved a vicious looking wound on the Mother Wolf's head.
"Aooo! Wu wu wu!" Its weak nose was pretty much smacked into meat paste. That indescribable pain caused the Mother Wolf to cry out in pain!
But, Yi Qiu didn't stop. He rotated his remaining Ki to his left leg, along with the sharp sound of the wind, his left leg viciously kicked the Brown Mother Wolf!
