Chapter-18 Anger and Souls

  The pain had grown so intense that I could barely think much less move.

  I tried to run the Yin Qi but to no avail,

  I thought of ways to escape this crisis and to save my life

  But I couldn't think of anything

  I felt a chill so cold on my head that the floor felt scolding hot

  I took a deep breath to calm myself and tried to get up

  I believed that if I could get up,

  Then I could go and find the old man Bu, Pollux he'll even Julia

  Anyone really

  Anyone who could help me

  I wanted to live, I didn't want to die

  But because of the pain I couldn't my body

  I heard my heart as it thudded madly in my chest

  My ears were ringing and my tongue was tingling

  My throat felt dry and soar

  I was terrified once again in my life

  I wanted the pain to stop.

  But that was just wishful thinking as the pain showed no sign of ceasing

  As I lay there on the ground struggling the fierce pain

  I tried extremely hard to just breathe and make it through the pain.

  I must have done something right because I was able to think again

  I thought about today

  Today was a roller coaster,

  Visualization of the lake,

  the disappointing 'Mind's Eye',

  My foolish attempt to unlock the 'third eye' appoint

  That last one was a giant foolish mistake that would cost me dearly

  'If I died again maybe I would be reborn I thought

  Who knows maybe this time around my luck wouldn't be so rotten

  I could get a decent family who would be at least

  These thoughts made me happy and I relaxed

  For some reason, my mind went to the lake the peace and happiness I found there.

  I began the visualisation technique and entered the lake once again

  This time I was sitting on the freaking water

  Before I could marvel over the situation that could walk on water

  I realised that the pain was gone

  I excitedly looked around

  The sky was bright and clear and there was a white sun up

  I could see a blue horizon as far as my vision went

  The white sun felt so close that I felt that I could just reach up and touch it

  The lake was surrounded by green dense trees

  I was so giddy and happy that I could dance

  But that didn't last long

  The world shook momentarily and a tremor went through the lake like an earthquake

  I once again felt the intense pain

  It was only for a short moment but that left me on my knees

  clenching my head

  There was Blood pounding in my ears

  My legs were quivering uncontrollably

  My sight distorted as if someone put high powered glasses lens on my eyes

  I slowly fell on my side, my whole body was soaking wet

  I didn't know if it was the sweat or the lake water

  After some time I calmed down and got up

  As soon as I did the world once again shook

  Bringing me back to my knees

  I lost my nerve to get back up again

  As I sat there on my knees I thought about my life

  You could call me a loser

  You could call me a down and out guy

  But you couldn't call me a quitter

  I had tried my level best even with that card fate had dealt me

  Life was a roller roster of sadness and bad luck

  From the moment I was born, it was a shit show

  I lost the only person who cared about me

  You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

  I was blinded

  And now I was here dying

  Before I could even accomplish a single thing.

  I lay there as another shock of pain washed over me

  I started to remember my previous life

  I regretted everything I did

  The choices I made and the decisions I took

  I wanted a do-over, I wanted a second chance

  The more I thought about more the memories of the past came to me

  I was a coward my entire life

  I always ran away from any difficult situation instead of facing it head-on

  I never bother to fight for myself

  The time I was fired from my job for a false reason

  The day I found my wife cheating

  The day my mother reduced to recognise me

  And just like that, I was going to give up and run away from it all

  Only this time running away meant dying

  I had two options flight or fight

  And I wanted to choose to fight

  To fight for my life

  I decided not to flee and the moment I did so

  I felt the dark emotion of fear wash over me

  I screamed at the top of my lungs

  And the world around shook

  But this time I didn't fall on my knees

  I screamed until I had no voice left

  My sanity was seeping from my hands

  The fear and pain were the only aspects I could feel

  After some time I calmed down

  As I calmed down I noticed my changed surrounding

  The trees had disappeared

  The clear blue lake was now murky dark and black

  Instead of the clear blue sky, it was white now

  Instead of the white sun, there was a golden circle

  Suspiciously similar to my life symbol

  And there was a red glow coming from behind me

  I turned around to find a red ball size of my fist

  floating in the middle of the lake

  With red lightning sauntering around it like snakes

  And from time to time a red bolt of lightning would shoot out of the ball

  Visiting the lake surface turning it red from black

  And just right below the red ball

  There sat a five coloured man in the porous position

  He had no eyes, no face, no mouth and no genitals

  It was a plane man devoid of any discernible features part from that his body was made of five colours

  Red, grey, blue, green and yellow

  And vaguely around this man, there was a faint phantom of a tall spacious mountain

  I had to squint my eyes to see the mountain

  What the hell was this

  The more I saw of the man the familiar he felt

  How could a man with no features a familiar

  But instead of being scared by seeing such a man, I felt at ease even peaceful

  As I was busy studying the new addition to my lake

  A mother of all shocks came

  Instantaneously causing the collapse of my lake world

  My vision blurred then darkened

  I was once again on the boiling floor and in terrible pain

  I was forcefully brought out of my meditation and into reality

  The chill had spread from my head to my chest now

  I didn't know how long before I died in this life

  Of all the emotions I was experiencing at that moment

  Anger was the most dominant one

  And that surprised me

  I was"t feeling any anger before

  I felt really angry,

  Angry at old Bu

  angry at granny

  Angry at my so-called parents

  Angry at everything but most of all

  I felt angry at myself

  For being a coward

  For not fighting

  For being afraid

  The anger gave me clarity and strength

  That allowed me to move and think again

  I didn't want to die just yet

  I once again ran the Yin Qi sutra of mountain river flow through my body

  This time something          unexpected happened

  As I ran the sutra I was able to clearly sense every inch of my body

  From My beating heart to my

  Fingernails to my toes to my every pore and muscle to the blood flowing through my he is

  I was conscious of everything including the Yin Qi

  I could feel every nuance of every cell in my body

  And I could clearly feel that the method was somehow wrong

  The flow of Qi was not only obstructed at various locations it never reached any of the acupoints

  I was just forcing the Qi into my bloodstream causing the blood to chill and this was killing me

  I instantly corrected the flaws

  And the strange chill started to fade

  A heard a pop at the place where the 'third eye' acupoint was

  It causes a short burst of pain at first then a relaxing sensation spread and a strange cool power began to radiate from the acupoint

  Causing a feeling of accomplishment and fulfilment

  I followed this feeling and attacked all the acupoints

  on my face neck back of the head top of the head around my eras

  Every time an acupoint was unlocked it would cause me a small instance of pain

  and then a relaxing sensation would appear

  and then I felt a strange cool powered radiating from that acupoint

  I unlocked nearly 108 appoints and this was only on my head

  I concluded that there were more than 108 acupoints Pollux told me about

  I became scared and angry at this the sutra Old man Bu gave me was flawed

  It nearly killed me

  Pollux never gave me the complete information

  Was nobody entirely helping me for the sake of helping me

  This world was too cruel and scary

  With the pain gone I was able to move so I got and sat down in a lotus position

  And started to sense my body

  My heart was pounding like crazy with excitement

  It felt like it would explode

  My body was quickly warming up

  it felt like

  I was on fire as a flame flicker

  I could sense the strong cold power radiating from me

  I also felt the strange anger that wasn't going away quickly enough

  Nevertheless, I was still ao happy to feel this way strong and angry instead of afraid and powerless

  However, before I could explore this newfound power and strength

  I heard a maniacal laughter

  coming from behind me

  I quickly turned to the source of the laughter

  There I saw a naked tall man

  Skipping and prancing around the room

  He suddenly stopped and

  Laughed So hard that he fell down

  And then he jumped up and started to sing loudly

  "Yes!, Yes!, He is Alive!, He is alive!..........................

  Like it was his favourite song

  He then came to a halt and looked at me with a big bright smile as if he was waiting for my applause

  'This can't be good' I thought

  As I looked at him

  I shook myself and stood up making a session

  " Who are you?" I asked loudly

  The man seemed honestly shocked

  His smile disappeared and he stood up straight looking at me in astonishment

  Then he said something that shocked me

  "You can see me?"

  Wait a good dammed second

  "I can see him?" I asked myself

  Well, apparently Yes!

  I can see him

  Me a blind man with no eyes can see him

  What the hell was happening??

  I once again looked at him for confirmation

  Well, he was big and in fucking white and black, but yes I could see him

  A million questions came to my head but I suppressed them and looked around

  Not just the man I could see the entire place in black and white

  I was super happy to be able to see again

  I was in a stone chamber filled with many bones some looked human others not so much

  ' Fuck me where was I?'

  I turned back to the naked man

  I gave him a sideways glance and shrugged

  Like I can see you, Duh

  "Why are you naked?" I asked distracting myself

  The man was silent for a long time

  I was growing nervous

  The silence grew a bit too loud

  I was about to say something else when

  He spoke

  "Hmmm," the began chuckle

  "Don't you know?"

  Well, for a moment I wasn't sure

  Was I supposed to know?

  Fuck me of course I didn't know

  "Yea!" I said and sacred at him intently

  I was surprised as to how his nakedness wasn't making me uncomfortable

  "The dead doesn't need any clothes"

  He shouted and began to laugh harder than ever

  As if he just told me a world-class joke

  I gave him the

  ' yep you are 200% mentally ill"

  Look

  "Are you dead?" I asked

  The man nodded

  'This situation couldn't get any weirder' I thought

  "Yes I am," he said

  "Why do you ask?"

  I shrugged

  "Just wanted to know if I was dead as well" I replied

  "No!, No!, you didn't die, I'm very happy you didn't die," he said

  And the man started to sing again "yes he isn't dead.........

  As he began to dance strangely

  With every passing second, I was growing more confused

  Right then pollux marched into the room

  Holy shit was this guy tall

  At least 8 feet by my estimate

  The guy headed straight for the naked man

  Can't pollux see the dancing naked man? I thought

  I was expecting a collision

  But pollux went right through the man as if he wasn't there

  And came in front of stunned me

  'Playing around I see" he barked at me

  " It has been a month now how much progress have you made, tell me"

  I wisely stayed quiet

  Pollux snorted and made a disgusted face

  "I think we should just give up I will talk to old Bu," he said to the air atop me

  And turned around and left me

  I was wrong this situation got much weirder

  There I was standing all confused and shit with a naked man dancing around me whom evidently I could see and pollux couldn't

  What in the world is happening I asked myself
