Qi Detection

For ordinary cultivators, they first had to enter a so-called qi sensing / qi detection realm. Only once they were able to sense qi could they enter the Qi Condensation realm.
However, Long Chen had taken an alternative path. By using medicinal energy to forcibly link himself up to heaven and earth's spiritual qi, he had managed to completely open his meridians, which was equivalent to stepping into Qi Condensation with a single step.
However, it couldn't be said that he had truly stepped into Qi Condensation. Although his body had been strengthened to the point that it was on that level, the Qi Condensation realm involved condensing cyclones of qi within the Dantian. Without a Dantian, he was not truly in Qi Condensation.
