Chapter 235: Pangu - 235
As Pangu woke up, he noticed another person next to him. The person was not unfamiliar, but he didn't know why he would be in the same room as him. The last thing that Pangu remembered was cultivating, until he woke up laying on the ground.
"Why are you here?" Pangu asked the man next to him.
"I don't know. I just woke up here." The man responded.
After a bit more talk, they both realized that the same thing had happened to them and they were both victims of the unknown.
Eventually, the man went back to his house and Pangu stayed as he was in his house.
Although Pangu had a bit of suspicion, the man was known for keeping to himself and had always been neutral in any matter.
Ignoring the previous event, he began to cultivate. He didn't want to fall behind anyone.
He was already at the third level of the Qi gathering realm, a realm he had sped through extremely quickly the first time.
In fact, he barely had any memory of the realm because it had taken him less than two days to reach foundation establishment.
This time, he would fully experience it.
From the 3rd level to the 4th level, pangu took 3 days. From the 4th to the 5th, he took four days. From 5th to 6th took 5 days.
Every time he broke through, Pangu would test out his cultivation and fully understand the realm. This way, he was able to further his comprehension of the Qi gathering realm, and by relation, cultivation.
From the 6th to the 10th level, pangu took 41 days. 40 days were spent cultivating, while one day was spent experiencing his cultivation.
Zhou Fan had been watching him cultivate while invisible. He nodded his head while watching Pangu experience the Qi gathering realm thoroughly. It would likely help him in the long run.
As Pangu reached the 10th level of the Qi gathering realm, he decided to gain some battle experience in the realm. He felt that, once he did so, he would finish the necessary comprehension of the first realm.
The only two other people that had reached the tenth level of the Qi gathering realm besides pangu were the two fiendcelestials with god rank meridians.
Pangu was well aware of both of their personalities. The one that had been in his house was calm and cautious, but the one he planned on fighting was the exact opposite.
He was also the previous leader of the fiendcelestials and had been the main person responsible for Pangu's slower ascent to high cultivation realms.
As Pangu reached the man's house, he knocked on the door. He wanted to break it down, but the materials were still at the soul formation realm. Only the living beings had their cultivations reset, not the materials.
Within a few seconds, the man came outside of his house. Seeing Pangu, he eyed him warily.
"What do you want, brat?" He asked.
Despite their equally low cultivations, one had been born long before the other.
"I want to fight you. We should be at the same realm. Get out here Dave. You big f*cker. Unless, of course, you're too scared." Pangu said, using taunts to enrage the man.
Dave, as expected, was enraged. As the previous leader of the fiendcelestials, he had arrogance. That combined with his natural temper allowed pangu's taunting to work.
Dave fully pushed open the door and stomped outside.
Pangu slightly backed up into the yard in order to set the stage.
Without saying any words, they already knew this was a no weapon fight. None of them had ever even held a weapon at the Qi gathering realm, much less owned one.
Dave charged towards pangu with a face red from anger. Pangu watched him cautiously.
Cultivation talent was one thing, battle talent was another. Although they often went hand in hand, Pangu had never really fought anyone before. He had been involved in sparring, but even that was occasionally.
This battle would have two effects. It would allow Pangu to discover his battle talent, and it would help him experience the Qi gathering realm.
In a few seconds, Dave arrived in front of Pangu. Without slowing down, he threw out a fist. The inexperienced pangu decided to simply match him. He punched out towards Dave's fist with his own.
As they collided, Pangu was sent flying back a bit due to Dave's momentum. Nodding, Pangu understood and got up.
The fight was very slow compared to every other fight that either of them had experienced, but it gave a sense of tranquility. Despite fists hitting face, it seemed like children playing around despite both of them being grown.
Both were only 15 feet tall. Before cultivation was reset, they could be tens of thousands of feet tall, but that had changed.
As they fought, their gray bodies showed they still had red blood.
After around ten minutes, both Pangu and Dave were nearly passed out on the floor. They had severe injuries, but they also viewed those as child play.
In the beginning of the battle, Pangu was steadily losing, but he turned that around halfway through and displayed a talent for combat.
Seeing any more talent would have to wait until he grew stronger, but as usual for those with high cultivation talent, it was likely that he would have very strong battle talent.
After thirty minutes, both Pangu and Dave were healed. The bodies of fiendcelestials healed quite fast.
Without exchanging any more words, they walked in opposite directions, Dave entering his house and Pangu going towards his.
Pangu considered the battle a tie, but it was just the start of their future battles. When they reached the peak of the foundation establishment realm, Pangu would go back to Dave's house.
It wasn't long before pangu reached his house. Looking at it, he knew that it wouldn't last him much longer. The house had been built when pangu had finally reached the void traversing realm.
At that point, he was able to control his size and hovered around 20 feet. That meant he would need a bigger house once he reached the core formation realm, but it would still work in the foundation establishment realm.
Chapter 236: Mountain - 236
As pangu entered his house, he ate a piece of bread and began to cultivate.
Although he would no longer need to eat at the foundation establishment realm, he needed to eat at the Qi gathering realm.
Most of his hunger was supplemented by Qi even now, but he ate the bread just in case.
After two weeks of constant cultivation, Pangu entered the foundation establishment realm.
As he still had nothing to do, he continued to cultivate. Even his weakest weapon was at the nascent soul realm, and it was only a sword, which meant he could not practice with weapons.
Starting at the soul formation realm he would finally have an axe once again.
After one week, Pangu broke into the 2nd level of the foundation establishment realm. From the 2nd to 3rd level took 2 weeks. From the 3rd to 4th level took 3 weeks, and so on.
While cultivation for others would be more random and variable, Pangu was simply being held back in speed. Therefore, the consistent increase in cultivation speed of an additional week was not too hard to accept.
After reaching the 5th level of the foundation establishment realm, Pangu stood up. At some point, he realized that he was doing the same thing all over again. Experiencing each realm in a simple spar would not equate to much growth. Even the occasional break to digest his learnings wasn't worth much.
Pangu was unaware how strong a foundation establishment cultivator really was.
Therefore, Pangu decided to leave his house and go explore. It would be a short experience, but it would help him understand more.
Theoretically, leaving the fiendcelestial village would be a bad idea for someone at the foundation establishment realm due to all the powerful beasts around, but their cultivations had also been reset.
Pangu was aware of that because some of the fiendcelestials had kept beasts as pets, and their strength was lower as well.
Before leaving, Pangu decided to walk through the fiendcelestial village. If he was lucky, he would be able to find a foundation establishment realm axe in the ownership of one of the smiths.
Just because some of the fiendcelestials were talented didn't mean that all of them were. There was no lack of foundation establishment fiendcelestials, although they were somewhat rare. Therefore, most of the smiths sold that level of weapons.
Pangu was aware of three smiths in the fiendcelestial village.
Although he would be bothering them while they tried to regain their cultivation, Pangu didn't care.
After walking for five minutes, he knocked on the door of a house. This was where one of the smiths lived.
"What?" A female voice said as the door began to open.
"I'm looking for your husband. Is he here?" Pangu asked.
Since everyone in the village knew everyone, everyone was familiar with everyone.
"He was outside the village when everyone's cultivation was reset. He won't be back for a while." The lady said before shutting the door.
Pangu had never really liked her.
In only a minute, Pangu reached another door.
Knock Knock Knock
"What?" An old man's voice said from behind the door.
Hearing him, Pangu knew he was in luck. It was definitely the blacksmith's voice.
"I need a weapon." Pangu said a little loudly so that his voice traveled through the door.
"You should be regaining your cultivation, Pangu. You can get a weapon then." The old voice said.
"I need one now. I'll repay you in the future. You know I'm talented." Pangu said convincingly.
Finally, the blacksmith opened the door.
"Fine, but I want you to pay me what a nascent soul weapon would cost for the inconvenience." He said.
Pangu didn't really mind as even nascent soul weapons were cheap for him. Especially back in the day.
Pangu agreed and the old man showed Pangu in.
"I'm not strong enough to pick it up in my current state. Grab it yourself." He said as he pointed to an axe.
The axe was greenish, but it was mostly black.
Pangu grabbed the axe, let out a thank you, and walked along the desolate streets until he reached a mountain.
Before the reset, anyone strong enough to leave the mountain and survive could easily jump over the mountain. Due to that, there were no stairs or any sort of help.
Sadly, Pangu didn't quite have the capability to jump over it. Therefore, he turned to the left and walked until he was in front of a lower exit between two peaks.
He then proceeded to climb the tall mountain, using the axe every now and then to pull himself up.
The axe was a one handed axe, meaning that Pangu didn't struggle to carry it up the mountain that much.
After an hour of nonstop climbing, Pangu reached the top. The mountains were extremely tall since they surrounded and protected the village. They were also strong. A core formation cultivator was needed in order to even chip them.
Looking down, Pangu sighed and sat on his axe. He knew it was a bad idea, but he couldn't stand to waste any more time.
Once he was comfortable, Pangu pushed off of the ground and began to slide down the mountain.
In around twenty seconds, he was halfway down.
Then, as expected, tragedy struck. A single pebble hit the axe at the right angle, causing pangu's axe to get pushed up and outwards.
Pangu froze as he saw the mile long freefall below him.
"Welp." He said as he began to plummet.
He was falling so fast that he would probably hit the ground in ten seconds.
Hurriedly, pangu threw the axe away and gathered his Qi on his forearms.
He then balled up so that it seemed he would land on his forearms.
Right before he hit the ground, Pangu pushed down with all his Qi, leaving only a little to reinforce his arms.
A burst of wind shot out that slightly slowed pangu's fall, and he hit the ground forearms first.
Even the common ground on the fiendcelestial world was at the foundation establishment realm. Therefore, pangu only caused a small crater to appear.
After a moment, he stood up with blood dripping out of his mouth. Luckily, he had survived.
