Power Leveling – Guild Style
Okay, so my friends and daughter are officially weird. That is all I will say about that, though I did find out something interesting. Namely the fact that apparently Qi might channel differently through different body types.

Mourning

Thunderclap.
The fact that it rained on the day of Jacob’s funeral was almost too cliché. It wasn’t until Amoni realized how odd a thunderstorm in November was that Amoni began to truly realize what was happening.

Burning, tearing, ripping.
Everything burned as Frank seemingly for the first time in forever began running and sprinting as fast as he could. Honestly, his speed and movements almost frightened him, as he was clearly on a different level of movement compared to wha...

Having gone through multiple survival scenarios in his classes, Frank felt his body reacting before he truly thought out what he would do next.
In his mind he went through the checklist of items needed to survive. First find a safe place, preferably a choke point with only o...

The Five Point Exploding Palm Techniques
In the movies, the idea of a five-point palm exploding heart technique was just a myth. Something that had just enough of scientific backing that it could theoretically be believable enough to avoid breaking the immersion of the vie...

“GHAHHHHH!” Frank screamed wildly.
At the sound of his voice, the giant moving snake tilted its open maw back slightly, as if it was able to more accurately predict the landing path that Frank would take.
To his shock, the snake appeared to do just that, as he coul...

Frank felt pure unadulterated fear, tension, and above all, Qi flowing through his body as he dazedly made his way out from the gymnasium.
He had signed away his chance at higher education by opting to join the work force early. This meant that he would foreve...
