Time flowed on, while Li Yang numbed himself with desperate training, training without end...
In the blink of an eye, Li Yang had been training for half a year.
"Drip!" Sweat fell from Li Yang's face. The muscles all over his body gave off an unreal, hazy impression. That was because the True Qi within him was completely working together with his muscular strength to resist the immense gravity. True Qi coiled around the surface of his muscles as beads of sweat streamed down...
"120!" Li Yang held a massive boulder in both hands, raising and lowering it nonstop. The strength in his arm muscles burst forth, while his legs remained planted in a horse stance. No matter how heavy the boulder was, Li Yang's stance stayed as steady as Mount Tai.
Wave after wave of powerful gravity traveled from the boulder into Li Yang's arms, crushing down on the legs locked in his horse stance. Li Yang's muscles were exceptionally resilient. Perhaps it was because the medicinal power of the Marrow Cleansing Pill had fused into his muscles back then, but the strength of his body kept increasing, and the intensity of his training rose again and again. After constant depletion and replenishment, the Internal Energy within Li Yang had already reached the peak of the third level.
Li Yang had comprehended the third level, nearing the realm of harmony with nature. His degree of Fusion with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had reached an unimaginable level, while Overlord Xiang Yu continuously helped Li Yang increase the speed at which he absorbed that energy. Now, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was as easy for Li Yang as drinking water...
"Ha!" Li Yang let out a fierce shout. His arms suddenly exerted force, and he flung the boulder aside in one motion.
"Glug, glug..." Li Yang picked up a bottle of mineral water from the training room, tipped back his head, and poured it straight into his mouth. Without pausing in the slightest, he drained the entire bottle.
His exhausted True Qi began to circulate wildly once more. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured endlessly into Li Yang's body like cheap tap water. As his True Qi circulated, it quickly recovered—and even increased slightly compared to before.
Testing!
Li Yang casually took a small bottle of Erguotou, only a couple of ounces, sipping the strong liquor as he slowly walked out of the training room.
The training room's gravity display clearly showed a "5"!
Under five times gravity, what did a boulder weighing over a hundred jin represent? And Li Yang had to bear his own weight as well. If he had not crazily used Internal Energy to support himself, his body simply could not have endured it. But only this kind of training could numb his painful, lonely heart.
Testing area.
Li Yang switched on the tester and stepped into its range. Immediately, scanning rays entered his body, and after a while, the light began to dim.
"1,080 Crystals!"
Li Yang looked at the result and smiled faintly. The third level of the Six Extremes Pure Yang Technique has already reached its peak. My Internal Energy is nearly 1,000 Crystals. So how much is my muscular energy? It seems it should be around 100 Crystals.
"Li Yang, you brat, your progress over these past six months has truly been enormous. According to this Hegemon's meticulous inspection with his Primordial Spirit, your Internal Energy should be at 950 Crystals, while your physical energy has reached 130 Crystals. Ah, this Hegemon is astonished. Technology truly is incredible—it can actually alter gravity. Impressive!" Xiang Yu's voice sounded in Li Yang's mind.
Li Yang smiled faintly. Hegemon, it's nothing much. It merely changes the magnetic field. But I do find it strange. My training over the past six months has been insane, yet my physical energy has risen from just over 70 Crystals to 130 Crystals. Isn't that progress a little too fast?
Xiang Yu laughed. "You brat, hehe, who else has training conditions like yours? Under five times gravity, with your strength, you should not have been able to hold on at all. Yet you recklessly used Internal Energy as though your life meant nothing. Fortunately, you absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth quickly, and with this Hegemon's help, your Internal Energy replenishes rapidly, allowing you to withstand the consumption. There is another reason as well. The Marrow Cleansing Pill is a spiritual medicine used by cultivators. Back then, its medicinal power merely fused into your body. Only now, with your training, has it truly begun to take effect. Without the Marrow Cleansing Pill, you could never have progressed so quickly."...
Li Yang nodded slightly, then continued drinking his strong liquor as he slowly headed toward the training room. For some reason, no matter how much strong liquor Li Yang drank these days, he could no longer get drunk. A huge pile of empty bottles lay in a corner of his training room, yet Li Yang had never become drunk.
That training room under five times gravity was where Li Yang ate, slept, and lived. Even while sleeping, he automatically circulated his Internal Energy to resist the immense gravity. Fortunately, he did not sleep while hugging a huge boulder. With only his own weight to bear, his Internal Energy could still handle it easily.
Day after day passed, and Li Yang's life remained confined to that training room.
A week later, Li Yang sat with his eyes closed, earnestly cultivating his internal arts. Cultivating with his whole heart and soul increased his True Qi far more rapidly.
"Rumble, rumble!" Streams of True Qi circulated madly through Li Yang's body before returning to his dantian. In the past, his dantian had seemed like a bottomless abyss, but today it finally seemed about to fill. Stream after stream of True Qi fused into it, while the True Qi within his dantian was continuously compressed and condensed...
The fourth-level incantation of the Demon Yang Canon flowed through Li Yang's mind. It was also the fourth-level incantation of the Six Extremes Pure Yang Technique. As though divine inspiration had struck, Li Yang used his mind to control the True Qi in his dantian, making it rotate along a specific path...
Compressing without end...
Condensing without end...
Suddenly, a drop of liquid like water formed. Then, drop after drop of "water" appeared. This was liquid formed from compressed True Qi, and as the "water" took shape, each drop began transforming into a new type of True Qi.
This new True Qi was precisely—Innate True Qi.
Houtian True Qi continuously condensed, then transformed through the "water" into Innate True Qi. Yet the speed of condensation far exceeded the speed at which it transformed into Innate True Qi, so more and more "water" accumulated within the dantian.
Suddenly, the Houtian True Qi had finally been completely transformed. The "water" in his dantian spun ceaselessly like a rotating nebula, while the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was continuously drawn in, with Innate True Qi constantly flowing forth from that "nebula."
The fourth level of the Six Extremes Pure Yang Technique!
Li Yang had finally broken through the Postnatal Stage and entered the Innate Stage!
A faint smile rested on Li Yang's lips as he slowly opened his eyes. He casually grabbed a bottle of strong liquor beside him. A thread of force shot from his fingertip, blasting off the cap, and Li Yang poured the liquor from the bottle into his mouth.
"Not bad. Using Innate True Qi to blast off a bottle cap is much more efficient than using Houtian True Qi. Last time, when I used Houtian True Qi, it seemed I needed two or three tries before succeeding!" Li Yang muttered as he lowered his head.
