Next day...
Standing in the training room, Yun Wuji gripped heavy weights, his muscles straining with each movement. As he threw punches, each punch cut through the air with a sharp, explosive crack, like a series of thunderclaps reverberating through the room. The force of his blows sent ripples through the air.
The room was reinforced with numerous formations; without them, the shockwaves alone would have torn it apart.
He wore a black undershirt, shorts, wristbands, and boots all weighted except for the shorts. Under the intense hundred-fold gravity, those weights felt even heavier!
However, compared to when he could barely move when he first started training, now it was much easier. Though it was still tough to move, he could now throw punches, kicks, and even jog around under the weight of gravity.
He had already begun to adapt under the hundredfold gravity, and the pressure he felt now wasn't nearly as intense as before.
Yun Wuji put down the weights in his hands and pressed a button on the bracelet on his wrist.
Humm!
A soft hum filled the room as the gravity machine increased the gravity to a hundred and twentyfold.
Yun Wuji felt his knees buckle, but he tensed his muscles, resisting the intense gravity. Slowly, he straightened his body, standing upright once more. He began to move, taking slow, deliberate steps around the room. After completing a lap, he paused and increased the gravity to a hundred and thirtyfold.
This time, he was ready. Although his knees almost buckled, he tensed his muscles and pushed back against the pressure. With great effort, he walked slowly to the other side of the room and then made his way back.
Hundred fortyfold.
Thud!
Yun Wuji's knees buckled and he dropped to the ground. Gritting his teeth, he used his hands for support and struggled to push himself back up.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Gritting his teeth, Yun Wuji slowly lifted his legs, moving step by step toward the opposite wall. Despite the struggle, he managed to drag himself back to the other side.
This pressure was very intense, and he could barely breathe without feeling pain in his lungs, but Yun Wuji wasn't satisfied; he raised the gravity to a hundred fiftyfold!
*Masochist?*
Immediately, the floor of the training room felt like a super-strong magnet, pulling Yun Wuji down with a terrifying force. At the same time, the gravity was like an invisible hammer, slamming down on him relentlessly.
Bang!
With the relentless force from above and below, Yun Wuji's bones and flesh cracked and shattered inch by inch. Silver-red blood streamed from his body, and in less than a second, he was left a bloody, miserable mess.
Yun Wuji lay sprawled on the ground, his body battered and struggling against the crushing gravity. He pressed his hands into the floor, the effort causing his muscles to twitch and tremble. His breathing was ragged, and each inhale was painful.
With great effort, he began to crawl, dragging his broken body inch by inch. His fingers dug into the floor, leaving streaks of blood as he clawed his way toward the wall.
When he finally reached it, he used the wall to pull himself up. His legs shook, and he was barely standing, but he managed to get back on his feet, panting heavily.
Struggling to his feet, Yun Wuji began to channel the Dragon Morph technique. Dragon blood surged through him, and his Dragon God's marrow blazed with a fierce light. Dragon scales emerged, enveloping his entire body.
With the transformation, he could finally move, albeit barely. He lifted his leg and took slow, careful steps forward. As he moved, he fought against the crushing pressure, using the Dragon Morph technique. His dragon blood surged faster, and his Dragon God's marrow shone brightly.
Yun Wuji reached the far wall of the room, then turned and made his way back, step by step. Sweat dripped off him and splattered on the ground. He gritted his teeth and pushed through the pain. When he finally got to the other wall, he turned again and started back.
This went on for a while, until suddenly, his body reacted. The dragon blood in him surged faster, and his Dragon God's marrow shone intensely. With a bang, the marrow burst into a brilliant flash before dimming down.
At the same time, changes occurred in Yun Wuji. His scales grew brighter and thicker, two silver horns emerged from his forehead, and shiny silver wings sprouted from his back.
"Hahahaha, no pain no gain are indeed wise words! I've reached the second stage of Dragon Morph! Agh! Cough! Cough!" Yun Wuji laughed, but the laughter made his chest ache, and he coughed up blood.
He ignored the pain, deactivated the gravity device, and wiped the blood from his lips.
Yun Wuji took a mirror and looked at himself. His reflection showed a slender and powerful figure with bright, thick dragon scales covering his body. Two silver horns protrude from his forehead, giving him a fierce, majestic aura. His eyes gleamed with a sharp, otherworldly light, and a pair of shiny silver wings stretched from his back, shimmering under the light.
He reached up and touched the silver horns on his forehead. "It's cool but feels a bit strange," he murmured, tracing the smooth, cold surface, he pulled his shorts and saw his little dragon grow bigger as well which made him feel a bit contradicted, it was already big, if it continued to grow, he may not be able to put it in.
His wings stretched out behind him, extending two meters in length.
Yun Wuji flapped his wings, causing a gust of wind to stir the air.
He tried flying with them, moving around the room. At first, it was tricky, and he kept bumping into the ceiling and walls. Flying with wings isn't something humans could pick up, but soon enough, he got the hang of it.
After playing around for a while, Yun Wuji sat cross-legged. Energy flowed smoothly from the base of his veins to his profound entrance.
First entrance...
Tenth entrance...
Forty-first entrance...
Sixtieth entrance...
Sixty-second entrance...
69 entrance...
Seventy-first entrance...
Seventy-second entrance...
Seventy-third entrance...
Bang!
When he reached the seventy-third entrance, his veins burst, he failed once again. But this time, his injuries weren't as severe, and he didn't fall unconscious.
"Soon, very soon," Yun Wuji muttered, his eyes shining brightly as he opened them. With the second stage of Dragon Morph, his body had become stronger and his blood production faster. He would succeed soon.
...
At night, Yun Wuji gently slipped from Cang Yue's clingy hands, covering her with a blanket before leaving the room. He didn't feel sleepy, most people at the Sky Profound Realm hardly need sleep and have minimal need for food.
He teleported to the garden. There, he found a table set up, sat down, and poured himself a cup of wine
He settled comfortably into his chair, gazing at the moon as he sipped his wine. "Heh, life is good," he thought. Lately, life had been blissful he could relax after training, enjoy wine, have fun with Cang Yue, and tease his disciple when he was bored. It was a wonderfully relaxing life.
Looking at the moon, Yun Wuji had a sudden thought: Why do most of the girls he knew have "Yue," = "moon," in their names? Chu Yuechan, Chu Yueli, Cang Yue, Xia Qingyue... they all had "Yue" in their names. Was the moon really that beautiful? As far as he knew moon Was just a dark rock filled with holes.
"Brother-in-law, you really know how to enjoy yourself," Suddenly, Chu Yueli said gracefully as she descended from the sky, interrupting his silly thoughts.
"Oh, Sister-in-law, did you come to join me in gazing at the moon?" Yun Wuji asked as he turned around. He saw her floating down, and under the moonlight, she looked like a fairy descending from the immortal realm ethereal and mesmerizing.
*Ethereal and mesmerizing. I get new vocabulary lol.*
Hearing "brother-in-law" from her lips made Yun Wuji feel a strange itch. It reminded him of the role-play he once did with Chu Yuechan.
Too bad Chu Yuechan doesn't have a mother...
Wait, she does have a mother figure. Hmm, that might work as well.
Far away in the Snow Region of Extreme Ice, Gong Yuxian sneezed suddenly. "Who's talking behind my back?" she wondered.
