Just after finishing my second full 'Lightning Cell' cycle, I was hit with another surprise….

I always wondered about the stat points I gained due to the tempering of the lightning bath when the thunder lion struck me, they strangely weren't added to my stat points for some reason….

However, when I remembered a certain system message everything got cleared out.

[ You have gained the qualification to achieve '??????? ????????' ]

It was actually slumbering in my body till the point it was stimulated and then it finally surfaced!

I felt my that my body became somewhat lighter, thunder was sound, and the speed of sound was as high as 343 m/s, so such an improvement was somewhat expected. Yet, if speed was to be mentioned, the one which would be mentioned would be light!

Lightning in its essence is still light, the speed of light is 299,792,458 m/s! Which serves as the major reason to why a full cycle of tempering a 100 trillion cells would only take as little as one hour!

The major change was something else, it was the ability to boost my attacks with sound waves vibrations!

A casual punch of mine was capable of producing such effect, which meant that my direct body attacks would apply that effect automatically!

Even after trying a sword attack, all it needed was a bit of mind power control to spread the effect to the sword as well…..

However, what I looked forward to was if I could develop another physique, this one was the product of fate, chance, and opportunity. Yet I believed that the chance for another physique might be close at hand!

I started to concentrate on moving the cell once again, but as soon as the cell made contact with the first cell in my heart, it didn't go as expected, I only felt a seething pain instead of the soothing sensations I felt with the earlier two cycles, causing me to stop at once.

That only had one meaning, that I could only practice two cycles each day, such limitations & rejection effect were mentioned in the book, but it was supposedly still alright to do a full 5 cycles before that begins to happen.

Yet, that wasn't the only difference, the speed at which the 'Elemental Strengthening' progressed with each cycle were at least faster by 5 times!

According to the book, the fastest time that the 'Elemental Strengthening' of 'Lightning cell' could reach completion at would be at least 100 days of practicing the full quota of cycles possible in a day, which was already quite fast. Other arts would sometimes take from 1 to 10 years to finish the first stage.

On the other hand, 1 cycle of mine made progress equal to 5 regular cycles, not to mention that the progress even slightly increased with the second cycle. Who knew, maybe this was the reason for my cycles being limited to 2/day…..
