Chapter 250: Chapter 250

Inside of their own living quarters, Caroline and Jason were both meditating in their respective normal places for meditation. Normally at this time of day, they would meet up with Aimee and Thomas to help the detectives with their training, but this time they had to cancel because of their newfound elemental power, and their sudden inspirations with their healing spells.

 

All the living quarters that are located in magical bubbles had their respective individual small training rooms in them. And these training rooms were built with sturdy materials and some other basic facilities and appliances depending on the design of each quarter.

 

Caroline’s living quarter was a brick house with a lawn outside, and the training room was a room with exposed red bricks and a small pool at the center of it. Right now Caroline was doing her meditation in the pool filled with water. As she was submerged deeply in her meditative state, her body with only a swimming suit on was glowing in orange, red and light green. Streams of two different kinds of energy flowed from her skin and along her meridians, some of those energy heated up the water around her, and some of those energy turned into bubbles and floated up to the surface of the pool water.

 

Jason’s living quarter, on the other hand, was a quiet little bamboo house with bamboos around. His small training room was also a room made with bamboo with a carpet and an incense burner inside. When he was meditating, there were three incense sticks burning in the incense burner releasing very small traces of smoke. Similar to Caroline’s situation, small traces of energy were flowing on his body - they were mostly silver, and some light brown. And with the flow of energy, different kinds of thin coatings started appearing on and then disappearing from his skin - sometimes like a layer of silver paint, and sometimes like scattered dirt.

 

After a while, the pool in which Caroline was sitting started bubbling more, and the temperature of the water just kept rising to the point of boiling. Steam was coming from the pool and started fogging the entire room. Yet these factors did not affect her meditative state in any way, aside from the fact that her exposed skin turned slightly red like a normal person’s skin when exposed to warm water.

 

Silver and light brown shadows started appearing and disappearing around Jason, sometimes they were like a suit of armor on his body, sometimes they formed weapons like swords and spears, sometimes they were like Jason in various battle poses, and sometimes they became daily mundane things like tables, tea cups and chopsticks. 

 

After a short while Jason extended his hands in the air with palms facing up - silver and light brown energy concentrated on the space right above his palms and slowly formed into two balls of energy spinning the mid air.

 

Water started going into cycles around Caroline and thus forming a small vortex with Caroline at the center. The flow of water also seemed to have affected the fog in the room, where a fog cyclone appeared above the pool, with Caroline also at the center.

 

Some kind of energy pulses were released from within their personal training rooms, and they were actually not from Jason nor Caroline themselves.

 

With their eyes still closed, Jason reached into his pocket, and Caroline extended her hand at her clothes placed at the corner of the room.

 

Jason took out a tiny clay bottle from his pocket, and a similar clay bottle flew from Caroline’s clothes and reached into her palm.

 

“As I promised, these are a part of your rewards from completing your whole sets of moves.” some time back in the inn, this was what Jianmen told them when he handed the two bottles to Caroline and Jason.

“What is it?” Caroline shook her bottle and felt that there was some jelly like things inside.

 

“Well, to normal people and power wielders, they are poison. Not terrible, but diarrhea and vomit inducing, could also be a cause for headache and nosebleed.” Jianmen smiled: “But, you can’t open it right now, but they will call out to you when they sense certain changes of energy signature radiated from you and call out when it is time to use them.”

 

“So what would happen when it’s time for us to use them?” Jason asked.

 

“There are three sips for each of you.” Jianmen answered: “The first sip is an inspirational sip, which would be the most painful sip for you. But when you power through it, you will be rewarded with your Xuanli being more in-sync with your mind and your internal organs, bones and your entire body; the second sip is a relaxing and restorative sip, and the sweetest sip of all three, take it when you power through the first to let your body relax and rest; the third sip you can do as you please, because it’s a healing sip for when you’re injured. Don’t waste it on small cuts and common cold, but don’t hesitate to use it when you feel like you’re in trouble.”

 

The first sips from their bottles felt disturbingly the same: the medicine/poison inside was like  two long live worms, and without them doing anything, they just crawled into their mouths, through their food pipes and down to their stomach, and just when they were feeling that they may throw up, the worms dissolved.

 

A burning and bloated feeling radiated from Caroline’s stomach and onto all corners of her body. Within a few seconds, she felt as if every single cell in her body was being burnt and bloated from the inside.

 

And for Jason, it was a feeling of his whole body being hammered, squeezed and poked, and as if every tissue in his body was being pressure and heat treated like a piece of metal or wood material.

 

The clay bottles dropped onto the ground as both Caroline and Jason clenched their teeth and remained in meditation poses. Dark blood was seeping from under their skin, and they both had the feeling that salty and bitter blood was about to come out of their eyes, nostrils, ears and mouths.
