Chapter 8
This type of low level yuan fu can only be used once, when it consumed all the yuanqi that stored in the yuan fu, it will lose its power and all the stuff that stored in the yuan fu will be removed from it. so either he has to make new one as back up or he has to improve himself to a level that he could make level three yuan fu, at that time he can replenish yuan qi to yuan fu. So yuan fu could be used over and over.
The structure of yuan fu is not complicated, it has three parts, head, body and foot;
Head is use to direct yuan qi into the body and activate yuan fu; body act as storage s.p.a.ce for incantation, for chu incantation is something he could not figure it out, it is like driving a car, but not many people understand how engine works. Foot of fu is also called seal, it is used to seal the yuan qi inside yuan fu. So yuan qi could not leak out.

But according to the book he is still far away from stage 2 which will provide him enough yuan qi to make level 2 yuan fu. In order to get to that stage earlier, chu give up times that used for rest, spend them all on practice.
During the time chu practice, the situation has gotten worse, weather has got colder, some people were freeze to death. The sun does not show any sign want to come back again. Cold and hunger drives people to get out of house seek for foods and help, conflict never stopped, army start to lost control of riots. they had to narrow down and only focus on protecting some important area.
Chu was not aware of what was happening outside until one day a bizarre incident happened in his housing estate. One man started to argue with soldier about the fewer food he received everyday. Man was furious, and punched one soldier, but this punch shocked everyone on the scene including chu, the punch that man threw out instantly froze the poor soldier, the man was scared his hand is still covered with frost "no, no it was not me, i just simply pushed him, you all saw it …." he shouted with a quivering voice, started
