As the Burly Man left Altima alone with his 5 Captains, Altima, whom still in a trance from the shock regarding all the information and request he had heard, gave up on his intention to continue walking around the town, and immediately return to the Guild. Other than providing guidance and lesson as he usually did daily, Altima is closing his door with the reason of closed door cultivation. Even when Qin Dun tried to inquire about anything is wrong, Altima assures him there is nothing going on, except he has a slight inspiration to obtain a breakthrough.
With the time pass quickly, Altima once again travels along with his convoy and quickly made it back to the Hundred Miles Town within half a week. After relaying his greetings and some small matters with Wu Feng, Altima ignores almost all the others and continue to be in close door cultivation. With the duration of 1 more month had totally passed, Altima, finally came out from his room with a better skin complexion, as well as satisfied smile.
During this time distance of almost 2 months of total cultivation, Altima had mastered and capable of using most of the martial arts he had learned. With the peak mastery on 8 Ascending Fist, First Chapter on Movement of Ghost Steps, Zhen Wu Shaking Iron Palm, First Circle of Small Circle of Tai JI, and finally the 5 Stance Essence Explosive Fist.
Meanwhile, on the Body Strengthening martial art, Altima had himself strengthen to the 2nd Stage of Zhen Wu Warrior Body, as well on middle stage with the Little Sun of Yang Essence Technique.
Combined with all these Martial arts, Altima currently is more than capable enough to challenge at least a 2nd Stage to 3rd Stage Warrior Practitioner, or even battle equally with a 4th Stage Warrior Practitioner. In the same time, during the period Altima is in his closed door cultivating, He manages to utilize Mobi's Interface, thus producing a huge amount of Balancing Zen Pill for himself. Throughout the whole month, Altima manages to gather enough resources for him to Concoct a total of 15,000 Portion of Pills, in which, a total of 8,500 Pill is successfully Concocted. With this number, the Concocting Skills within the interface manage to be Increase to a Level 10, which is his maximum limit for now, but with a success rate of 65% during Concoction, Altima could reduce even more waste of Ingredient whenever he needs to produce the Balancing Zen Pills.
Thus, After came out from his secluded training, Altima quickly proceed to apply for an approval to visit his family, walked around the town for some clothing and other material required, and quickly returned within two days. Directly heading to the Training Hall, Altima Rent a Secluded Room with an open roof which is covered with an Essence formation array where only sunlight or moonlight is allowed to enter.
Quickly, Through assimilating the Balancing Zen Pill, Altima's body is bursting with a large amount of Yin Yang Essence. Guiding the flow of the essence within his body, Altima utilizes both of his Zhen Wu Warrior Body, Then the Little Sun of Yang Essence Technique, to increase the amount of Essence his body could absorb before the Essence is let loose. By repeating this process, again and again, Altima quickly had his body bulging like a balloon which will explode anytime.
When the Essence absorption reaches its maximum Capacity and limit, Altima finally manages to fill all his important acupoint and Cultivating Gate, Thus opening a new series of New Roots, which is called the 18 Essence Absorption Door. With the first door among the 18 door is unlocked, Altima body currently works like a vacuum machine, which crazily absorbing the available Yin Yang Essence all around his surrounding.
Withdrawing more Balancing Zen Pill from his inventory, Altima had his first door absorb the Essence within all the pill as it needed, until Altima body finally giving out a light, and thus receiving a Tower of Grey and White Lights shine directly from the Sky. With this light is seen, this means that the Cultivator had successfully broken through the limit of Early Practitioner, and ascend into the 1st Stage of Warrior Practitioner of Zen.
Floating down slowly, Altima quickly seated with a meditating position, while calming his heart from all the new abilities he achieves during the break through. With him stepping up into the Warrior Practitioner Tier, Altima receives benefits of 25% Stronger Body, Stamina, Strength as well as regeneration power. Meanwhile, in the matter of Natural Yin and Yang Essence absorption, it will be increased by 50%, where even essence energy from a slightly far away distance could be absorbed by him if he pays attention during meditation.
As the Essence stored within the Core had evolved and began to be stored within his vein and the 1st gate among the 18 gates, The current Altima could have the stamina to fight at least 10 times longer than he did previously due to the massive storage of Essence within his body. Quickly, Altima take a look on the number of balancing zen pills is still available within his Inventory, and a Sigh came out almost instantly.
"Just from one Breakthrough will cost me a total of 7,000 Balancing Zen Pills.", Altima Sighed, as a portion of his fortune literally gone to his first gate and remain there for him to slowly use it off.
"Silly Brother, if you are looking at your Status, you will be shocked on how high is your Essence Gate capacity now.", Mobi quickly says something to Altima.
Opening the interface, Altima quickly checks on his Status and condition, and shocked for a short while, he is wondering how is the increase from a 140 Essence point could be increased into an 1800 Essence Point, just by opening an Essence Absorption Gate. But with his current knowledge regarding Warrior Practitioner, Altima believe he would be required more information before he knows how his current stage of cultivation works.

As he exits the room, Altima is greeted by a total of 10 people. The first person is somebody he knows well. Wu Feng. Meanwhile, apart from Li Mei and Li Na, the other 7 people are most probably the elders who taking care of the different departments within the guild.
"About 6 Years old already at Warrior Practitioner Tier, A rare Talent.", One of the Elder says.
"We should start grooming him now, but will Lord Rex allows us to keep this fine gem ?", Another Elder speaks.
"We got no choice, Let us try our hardest to keep this boy within the guild, and by the time he is old enough, he will have no choice but to allow us to keep him within the guild."
"Who should take the responsibility to groom this child ?"
"What do you think, Vice Guild Leader ?", Few other elder continues their words and finally stopped at Wu Feng to obtain his opinion.
"Little Nephew, Do you prefer Freedom, where you will be handling yourself on your own, but unrestricted, or be tied with the Thousand Members Guild, gearing up and down with us while we had you groom into a fine gem, or join the Lord Gunnar Rex, and obtain immeasurable wealth with your service ?"
"Vice Guild Master, You know how much I treasure the guild. If I don't Stand along with the guild which allows me to grow up, what would I become when I'm older from now on ?", Altima replied Wu Feng words and showing him a determination that he will stand with the guild, no matter what.
"Good!", The 7 elder praise in Unison, and felt proud for the Guild to manage to obtain such fine Gem with a finer personality.
"I believe, all of you elders are eager to see how this boy will grow too, right ?"
"Let's have him groom by all of us together.", Wu Feng gives out a suggestion.
"What do you think, Little Nephew ?", Wu Feng had the question thrown towards Altima.
"Disciple give Respect to the teachers.", Altima understands their intention and quickly give them a bow.
With all the little commotions is over, Altima finally is released and allowed to return to his room. After obtaining a sufficient rest, Altima starts his next day again with assisting the other staff member with his concoctions. With the daily Lessons, he would require attending with 10 different elders, Altima is taught with all sorts of knowledge he required to learn. Among the 10 Elders which acting as a teacher for him, Altima is thoroughly lectured, scolded to the point sometimes he will get hit and hang upside down outside of the elder's building for being too ignorant.
Although sometimes the treatment is slightly harsh, Altima felt loved and appreciated within the care of all the elders, through attending their lectures and being guided with a correct path of cultivation, Altima quickly grab through the initial knowledge to quickly improve his cultivation, and quickly opened his 2nd Door among the 18 Essence Absorption Door. With his 2nd door is opened, Altima currently have a capacity of 4,000 Essence Points. On his Cultivation as well, Altima is reaching the gap to move forward to the 2nd Stage of Warrior Practitioner too.
With the time passed by another 2 months, The end of the year is coming near. Altima, who recently reach the age of 6, Finally been approved to venture outside of the Town without any guards along, is seen running and chasing a target.
"These Medicinal Deer are pretty fast for its age!", Altima keeping a distance from the medicinal deer, with the motive to tiring its stamina out, praised the Deer as he chases.
Soon, the deer finally give up on running away, and slowly collapse towards to the Floor of grass and dirt. Minutes later, Altima gets close and use some Yang energy to replenish the Deer before he punches a small hole beside its neck, and start withdrawing the blood into the pouch. Gentle, Altima applies a pressure of Yang Essence Energy into the Deer to promote its healing, and later release the deer to run away again.
"Hmm, with this Pouch, I guess I have enough Blood to craft a total of 1000 tries with the new recipe I just receive from the Auction in Boulduin City.", Altima says while making his next trip directly towards the Hundred Miles Town.
