The last part, unlocking the next limiter, he had yet to do. Thankfully, the next limiter to unlock was the Limiter of Life, which as its name suggested, dealt with life Qi and healing the body. 

\'Once I unlock this limiter, combining it with my already unlocked Limiter of Healing should allow me to heal my body to full within the next two weeks,\' John thought, studying the details of unlocking the limiter.

The page he studied contained all the blocked meridian pathway convergences, acupoints, nerve bundles, and clusters of \'potential\' within the body that were naturally locked by the heavens upon birth. Had his limiters been unlocked at birth or even at a younger age, the energy and potency of the limiters would have destroyed his body from within instantly.

Thankfully, his Immortal Asura Body and Dragon-God Shift made his body far more durable than what was necessary to unlock and withstand the limiters.

Even those who had become body cultivators were not always able to unlock all their limiters, as the strain on the body required to do so was immense. John had inquired into the limits of his homeworld a while back, and had discovered that most body cultivators reached their limits at the Limiter of Life, regardless of their cultivation level. There were only a few body cultivators, the strongest and most talented in the world, to have unlocked their Limiter of Life. 

As for the Limiter beyond that, John had not heard of anyone unlocking that. From what had been explained to him, not only did the world not know of the Limiter after the Limiter of Life, but no one had a body durable enough to unlock it, even if they knew the method to do so. 

John briefly thought about the next limiter, and what it could pertain to. The Immortal Asura Tome unfortunately would not allow him to access the next parts containing the information regarding that limiter, at least not until he stepped into the World Expansion realm.

\'It\'s no doubt incredible, but thinking about it is a waste of time. It\'s time to focus, and unlock my Limiter of Life.\'

He paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, bracing himself for what was to come. Unlocking a limiter was a brutal and painful experience, forcing one to ram their blocked meridians, inactivated nerves, and sealed clusters of \'potential\' with brutal amounts of Qi, forcefully ramming them open or activating them.

This process was quite painful even when his body was in a good condition, but with his body as damaged as it still was, he was certain it would not only be a dangerous process, but also incredibly painful. 

He sighed, bracing himself for the pain he had felt so often in his life, and then got to work. His dantian surged with power, sending powerful bursts of Qi through his meridians to the incredibly complex and intricate pathways depicted in the Tome. One mistake could force him to start over from scratch, or in the worst-case scenario, cripple himself.

Pain wracked his body as his Qi slammed into the first blocked meridian, but he ignored it, pushing it to the back of his mind. This was only the beginning of the process, and he couldn\'t allow himself to be distracted by anything at all. Teeth gritted, his dantian surged with power, slowly but surely unlocking his Limiter of Life.

…

John exhaled deeply, his body slumping back against the bars of the cage. He felt exhausted and pained, as if he had just fought a life and death battle. His Qi was spent, and his body was in even worse condition than when he had started the process. 

His fractured meridians had become even more fractured, nearly overwhelmed from the brutal waves of Qi that had surged through his body. His muscles had been torn and bones fractured, both nearly overwhelmed by his self-destructive actions.

And yet he smiled, satisfied with the outcome.

\'Success. I have successfully unlocked my Limiter of Life.\'

As he unlocked the final part of his Limiter, his body had seemed to come to life for the very first time. It was as if his very existence had been sealed all his life, and he had been nothing but a shell of his true potential. Vibrant Life Qi sprung to life within his body as he finished the final part of the unlocking, summoned not by himself, but by his body instinctively.

The process had shocked him, as he knew next to nothing about the Dao of Life. He had received Life Qi from Laia before, but that was only receiving it, not studying it. And yet, as if it had been instructed by the heavens itself, his body had started converting Qi from his dantian into Life Qi, and then had infused that Qi into every cell within his body. 

It was not dissimilar to his bloodline ability, which stored pure essence Qi within his cells, ready to be used for a moment\'s notice. In fact, it was almost exactly the same, other than the type of Qi being stored. 

After recovering his focus, John unleashed his unlocked Limiter of Life. As if instructed by an unknown force, his body sprung to life, the vibrant Life Qi contained within his cells flooding out into his body. The Life Qi surged instinctively, rushing towards the damaged parts of his body.

John smiled wryly in self-pity. Damaged parts of his body? Was there an undamaged part of his body? If there was one, he couldn\'t spot it. 

The Life Qi quickly went to work, mending fractured meridians, healing torn muscles and broken bones. The Life Qi from the Limiter was not as potent or miraculous as Laia\'s Life Qi, but it was still quite potent, nonetheless. Combined with his already unlocked Limiter of Healing, which had raised the natural healing rate of his body, the healing potency was quite amazing, surprising even John.

He smiled with satisfaction.

\'At this rate, my body will no doubt fully heal before the slavers reach the coast.\'

His eyes narrowed with expectant excitement. 

\'My first battle against others from another world. I wonder how exciting the slaughter will be?\'
