Gurgle~
After washing his mouth with water, Araw's body suddenly released a loud, disgusting sound. His stomach began to warm up as sweat couldn't help but form within his forehead.
At the same time, warm energy, akin to basking in sunrise, started to course throughout his innards, slightly reducing the impurities within before strengthening them in the process... Although Araw had no idea what was going on inside his body, he knew that it was the effects of the paste he had consumed, causing him to become startled since he only tasted a small amount of it.
"What domineering effects."
Pttt!
Clutching his stomach, Araw hurriedly rushed toward the direction of the bathroom, releasing another disgusting sound within the way before closing the door with force.
Bang!
...
Time slowly passed by...
Although it was what Araw felt, in reality, 2 weeks had already passed.
Within the place created by the World Seed, the encompassing land already showed signs of life. The seeds and saplings scattered in the ground already started showing signs of growing herbs and fruits—much faster than Araw had expected.
In addition, although the cubs hadn't grown much in these past few weeks, their weight and vitality surely increased, often causing Araw to drool every time he gazed toward their beings.
In the distance, quite far away from the wooden house, the thin figure of Araw could be seen seriously cultivating; his previous rough skin could now be discerned releasing a gleam of healthy glow under the warm light, and his body already began gaining mass on them.
In addition to that, every time he moved, the scent of lavender emanated from his being. A single whiff of it further invigorates him from his cultivation practices.
With the help of cultivation resources, his strength and vitality swiftly increased day by day, to the point that he could already sense the raging blood coursing underneath his skin every time he cultivated.
Once his blood becomes thick enough and can freely course through his internal organs and strengthen them in the process, he will then successfully reach the 1st stage of the Body Tempering realm!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
With excitement coursing throughout his physique, already unable to control himself from the prospect of advancing to the Body Tempering realm, Araw immediately began following the set of movements based on his cultivation manual.
Taking a deep breath before moving with great complexity! Stirring everything around him as his limbs began to move unimaginably to the point they began forming illusions due to their speed!
A punch from him could already create a whistling sound within the atmosphere, parting them with force and causing the grasses around him to sway under his strength.
"I could already sense the imperceptible barrier. Just a little more!"
Even though he still hasn't reached the 1st stage of the Body Tempering realm, Araw was confident that his strength already surpassed his past life... Causing the forgotten anger within his heart to surge again upon thinking how those people from the clan cheated him and gave him an incomplete cultivation technique.
Right now, he comprehends that cultivating the incomplete manual was one of the most unfortunate things he had done in the past.
"Peak cultivation techniques were really built differently; even though I haven't become a cultivator, I already had the strength to contend with one!
"Moreover, my speed of cultivation. It's much faster than I had initially expected!"
It could be said that a normal mortal would at least take 1 and a half to 3 months in order to step on the road of cultivation, yet he, after transmigrating, could already sense the barrier after a short period of time!
Knowing his potential, Araw didn't blame it on his talent; instead, he associated his insane cultivation speed with the rich environment and the resources he brought from the system.
"Maybe this is one of the effects of having rich spiritual qi around."
...
Boom!
After a while,
The sound of cracking bones suddenly echoed within the silent forest.
With that, the thin and somewhat pale figure of Araw instantly turns red... as the beads of sweat on his forehead visibly evaporate due to the intense heat his physique is releasing.
Although he has already repeated the same set of movements in the past 2 hours, already on the verge of exhaustion and body aching, Araw's face still shows determination. His eyes seemingly reflected boundless flames as he shouted with all of his might!
Swish~ Pang!
In an instant, a punch, seemingly reflecting a faint image of an ancient bull, mysteriously unfolded toward the surrounding area, creating an intense wind that bent the grasses around, to the point that their tips almost touched the earth!
At the same time, feeling the sudden change in the atmosphere, the cubs in the near distance suddenly halted their action, their eyes constricted greatly as if facing a vicious beast before hurriedly running toward the unknown distance... Far away from Araw's location.
"Success! The 1st stage of the body tempering realm, I finally reach it again.
"Moreover, my overall strengths easily surpass mine in my past life, almost comparable to the 3rd stage of the Body Tempering realm of those who cultivated an incomplete technique!"
With eyes filled with excitement, Araw was about to inspect his newfound strength when suddenly, out of nowhere, the familiar sound of a monotonous voice echoed within his consciousness...
Ding!
[ Congratulations on successfully reaching the 1st stage of the Body Tempering realm. As a reward for your determination, the system will give you the following:
10 Teaching Points and Training Booklet for the Body Tempering realm. ]
"Hmm? I could gain teaching points by breaking through."
In an instant, a thin booklet with covers made from unknown leaves materializes in front of him, followed by his teaching points fluctuating and increasing by 10 points... Making his teaching points return to 83 points.
Curious about the book, Araw instantly opened it, starting to read its content as he couldn't help but hiss from time to time. His eyes widened slightly as his knowledge regarding the Body Tempering realm began to increase drastically.
Things that he never thought of began to fill his mind, allowing him to understand how narrow his mind was in the past.
"I didn't expect that there's a 10th stage beyond the 9th stage of the Body Tempering realm! Furthermore, cleansing one's physique from impurities could slightly increase one's potential?!"
