"Sure enough, it is truly remarkable" Zhang Chang sighed, three months later, the spiritual energy in his body had changed from a wisp at the beginning to a little flow and he was marvelling at the fact that he could feel it.
"The core principle of Qi Refining is divided into spiritual storage and spiritual refining, the spiritual storage is to accumulation of spiritual energy inside the body. A mortal body without aptitude is like a funnel, can not keep a little spiritual energy inside its body.
[ Zhang Chang - Strength: 0.58, Agility: 0.57, Vitality: 0.61, Gathered Spiritual Energy: 0.97, Spiritual Energy: 0.0 ]
All this time, after understanding how to measure the flow of spiritual energy inside his body he had sketched a better scale of measurement, the 0.97 was the maximum quantity of spiritual that he could gather inside his body at the moment, and 0.0 was the amount that he had truly refined.
"Now, I already have a rivulet in my body, theoretically I can refine 1/7 of it into my on spiritual energy. Now, for the sake of safety, I have been storing it until the amount would be enough, so I can now keep absorbing spiritual energy and a the same time refining it, with this, the cultivation efficiency would be greatly improved."
Since Zhang Chang started, he had accumulated spiritual energy for about 3 months, he could probably directly carry out the refining stage of spiritual energy months ago, but the refining of spiritual energy was not a natural process, and there was no small possibility of failure, so although the spiritual energy in his body would not be dispersed after failure, it would take a lot of time to restart the process again.
Although Zhang Chang did like to ponder if possible, most of the thing he was doing was beyond his previous field of know-how, so now he was advocating small steps and big leaps, so he deliberately lingered for some time.
"Today I will refine the spiritual energy, Chip starts recording ", Zhang Chang eyes closed slowly as he skillfully entered his "Mind State", then he silently transported the spiritual energy around his body according to a certain law through his meridians.
Zhang Chang focuses his attention, slowly he seems to feel that his spirit was piercing the spiritual energy, and it has slowly changed under his spiritual perception, more and more was refined, becoming denser and denser...
At a certain moment, Zhang Chang move his spirit, the cultivation method moved, entering a new chapter, the body's spiritual energy had been greatly been transformed into his own, this moment a little concept of space had born inside him. That according to the Fa Cultivation method would be the spiritual space.
Spiritual energy exists in the body but it did not attach to any part of the body, as if only Zhang Chang spiritual consciousness could access a special space.
"No wonder, I heard that some Cultivation Practitioners can turn themselves into ghosts in order to cultivate some special methods, some of their bodies have no trace of flesh and blood, they live like a skeleton."

"How do they cultivate their spiritual energy with their bodies disintegrated?"
"It turns out that the spiritual energy where it is located does not depend on the flesh" Zhang Chang calmly felt the spiritual energy inside his body with its own frequency, and in the future, as long as this spiritual space exists, the energy is consumed it would automatically absorb the spiritual energy of it surrounding to restore to a full state, it was just that the speed of autonomous- recovery is very sluggish, and it is generally crucial to use the Cultivation method to recover faster.
"From today on, I really could be entitled to call myself a Cultivation Practitioner, although it is only the first stage of Qi Refining", Zhang Chang was in a good mood. Compared with someone with the same aptitude as him, it would take them more than half a year to get to this step.
"With your own spiritual energy, you can practice spiritual techniques" Zhang Chang was full of energy.
At this point, Zhang Chang is no longer a mortal, felting that from the moment he had stepped into an extraordinary field, he could finally could expand his horizons.
.....
"Chip show scan my body" After calming down a little from the excitement Zhang Chang pulled up his data to see the changes.
[Zhang Chang - Strength: 0.60, Agility: 0.58, Vitality: 0.67, Spiritual Energy: 0.3 ]
"Practice didn't only affect the amount of spiritual energy I can refine, it also affects my body, but the effect seems to go mainly to my vitality" Zhang Chang was calmly analysing his body changes.
He really could feel the vitality in his body, but it was not a visible change in itself. Spiritual energy can strengthen physical fitness, but this process is carried out little by little, if it wasn't for the chip he wouldn't see the effect for a while.
"Chip pull the previous data and use a sample to see what proposed model could a fit." After ending feeling his body changes pull his attention to chip, and right now he was looking at a string of data being summarised and being applied to some model he had come up with.
All these months while gathering spiritual energy he had to gain some insight into how the body reacts with spiritual energy and based on it he had come with some model to try to improve it. But he didn't dare do it at a time to not mess up his progress for being careless.
[Beep! Found 3 model meets the fitting the base sampled data!]
[Spiritual Pressure Model!]
[Body Modification Model!]
[Blood Replant method!]
Zhang Chang look at the result of applying the data he had acquired in some ideas that he had come up with.
"Chip focuses on Spiritual Pressure Model and put the other two on hold" After calmly analysing the result, he decided to focus on what he believed was the most promising result for now.
It's not that Zhang Chang wasn't interested in the other two models, it was just that these models need lots of data to supplement the analysis for it to have a better chance of showing success, and this type of data would naturally involve experimenting with the body and see every reaction, it just that Zhang Chang wasn't willing to experiment with his body to collect this type of data.
[Spiritual Pressure Model Select! Appling all data! Expect time to finish: 3 days]
Given the amount of time till the end of the analysis, Zhang Chang was a little happy, the data collect amounts to six months intervals at a second by the second scale. The chip although advanced in his previous life, but was still a personal model as it couldn't be compared with a heavy processing unit, so he didn't know now how well it could handle heavy processing work
Zhang Chang had been meditating for an unknown amount of time, and his spirit was a little exhausted, after all, he had only just entered the 1st stage of Qi Refining. Feeling his own flow of spiritual energy again,
Zhang Chan fell asleep with a short smile on his face.
