Chapter 573: Marrow Meditation Manual
( Leo’s POV )

After selecting the central manor as his residence, Leo spent some time with Luke, offering him guidance on mastering the mind meditation manual.

Once they finished, Leo retreated to his private meditation room, where he brought out the sealed Grandmaster Meditation Manual he had recently acquired, feeling excited to see what it contained.

“Let’s see what sort of manual I have received this time…. I hope it’s not the frog meditation manual” Leo muttered, as although he felt excited to see what meditation method he had obtained this time, he did not dare hope for something grand after how he had obtained Dumpy recently.

“This book does feel a lot more powerful than the mind meditation manual…. Even in its sealed state it’s constantly pulsating with mana, almost like it’s an active mana vein” Leo observed as he placed the meditation manual in the designated spot in the meditation room, causing it to float in the air, right before his eyes.

“Time to bind it!” Leo said, as he bit his thumb to draw some blood and then smeared it all over the book’s shining cover to successfully start the binding process.

*FSHHHHH–*

The book steamed, as the heavy binding cover fell off and the beautiful light golden colored book was revealed underneath.

[Marrow Meditation Manual]

The book’s title was unveiled, as Leo felt his heart skip a beat reading the cursive text.

As the golden book revealed its true form, it slowly opened, displaying lines of text written in an ancient script that pulsed with faint light.

Initially, the pages were blank, however they soon filled up with information.

[ Detected that the host is a ‘Human’ and contains the primary energy cell labeled as ‘Red Blood Cells’.

Tailoring meditation method to cater to the hosts constitution….. ]

The first lines of text were temporary, informing Leo that the meditation manual was fetching knowledge specific to his species, and once it was done, the meditation manual began finally sharing specific information on what it hoped to achieve and how to practice it.

[ The Marrow Meditation Method is designed to initiate a fundamental transformation in the practitioner’s body by infusing mana directly into the bone marrow, the primary site of blood cell production. Through this method, the practitioner will gradually evolve the red blood cells within their body, replacing them with a new, mana-infused variant ]

The first page of text read, as Leo read it patiently.

Once he was done, and nodded, the text erased itself automatically, being replaced with a new page of information.

[ The newly generated cells will carry both oxygen and mana throughout the body, enhancing not only physical performance but also magical potential. However, as with standard red blood cells, these evolved cells will have a lifespan of approximately 120 days. Therefore, it is imperative that the practitioner regularly produces sufficient quantities of these cells to replace the natural red blood cells during each meditation session. ]

Leo’s eyes moved quickly over the text, absorbing the intricacies of the technique.

[ The ultimate goal of this method is to achieve a complete evolution of the bone marrow itself. Once fully transformed, the marrow will become a self-sustaining organ capable of producing these mana-infused cells autonomously, without the need for further intervention. This, however, can only be accomplished if the practitioner maintains a 100% replacement rate of the natural red blood cells with their evolved counterparts for a continuous period of no less than one year. ]

The manual emphasized the difficulty of the task and once it did so, it began displaying the warnings associated with practicing this method.

[ During the early stages, the practitioner will find it challenging to produce more than a limited number of these cells per session. The process of converting absorbed mana into cellular evolution requires immense control and focus, as the mana must be channeled slowly and steadily into the marrow. Should the practitioner lose focus or infuse too much mana at once, the process will fail, potentially causing damage to the bone marrow and the cells being produced ]

The description was clear and unyielding.

[ The path to mastery is long, requiring both patience and precision as only through consistent practice, and a deep understanding of mana control, will the practitioner be able to generate a sufficient number of cells to eventually replace the entire red blood cell population. The evolution of the marrow into a self-sustaining machine is the culmination of this process, but it can only occur after the practitioner has met the necessary conditions for at least twelve months. ]

The clear text left no room for error, clearly laying out the immense task needed to master it.

However, once Leo read it all and absorbed it’s meaning, the manual finally stopped with the prelude and began issuing specific instructions on how to practice it to Leo.

[ Begin by gathering all available mana in your body. Pool it within your heart, ensuring a steady accumulation without excess. ]

The manual instructed, as this time around it waited for Leo to follow its instructions in real time before changing the text being displayed on its pages.

For a few minutes the manual remained steady as Leo began gathering mana in the mana veins surrounding his heart, with the page on the manual not flipping until Leo had gathered a sufficient amount.

[ A sufficient concentration has been reached!

Now carefully direct the mana towards the bones where the marrow resides. The long bones—such as the femur and tibia— which serve as the primary sites for marrow production are your eventual goal.

Channel the mana from your heart slowly to such bones, ensuring that you do not damage your mana veins when trying to push the mana through the narrow cracks of your bones to the site where marrow is produced ]

The manual instructed, as Leo took a deep breath, and began carrying out the instructions.

Slowly channeling all the gathered mana I’m his body towards the leg bones where marrow was produced, he cycled them with precise control until he ran into a big problem.
