Chapter 1634 - 1599: Gai Shaoying's Path of Bitter Cultivation

Yang Xiao formulated a specialized Cultivation plan tailored to Gai Shaoying's physique. Gai Shaoying had to spend at least eight hours every day cultivating in the academy's Particle Beam Body Refining Cultivation Field, and then go to the school's Evolution Energy field to sleep for more than ten hours.

As a High-Level body refining device for Particle Beam Body Refinement cultivators, Wuji Academy's equipment was dozens of times more advanced than that of the Ancient Clan.

The Evolution Energy Cultivation Field was the same.

Gai Shaoying was like a country bumpkin entering a big city, wildly excited. He set himself an extremely harsh regimen: aside from the necessary time for eating and going to the toilet, he spent all the rest in these two Cultivation Fields, even sleeping inside them. Anyway, Yang Xiao had told him not to worry about money.

It had to be said, the Particle Beam Body Refining Cultivation Field had a very obvious effect on promoting Genetic Evolution, especially for someone like Gai Shaoying, whose Realm was below Emperor Level; the room for improvement was huge.

After about a week, Gai Shaoying's Genetic Evolution Bottleneck was broken. This made him wildly excited. He had originally thought his life had already reached its limit, yet he hadn't expected that he could once again raise his Genetic Evolution Level.

Drawing on his many years of practical experience, combined with the massive number of Cultivation books he had read, Yang Xiao pointed out the root of the problem to Gai Shaoying.

"Your original Genetic Evolution Talent was pretty good, otherwise you wouldn't have broken through to King Level Realm at the age of twelve. However, after you fell ill, your bodily genes mutated, so the first thing now is to repair your genetic structure, remove the diseased genes, and let your Evolution path return to its normal track."

One month later, Gai Shaoying smoothly broke through to the Emperor Level Realm.

At that moment, Gai Shaoying cried.

He knelt in front of Yang Xiao, sobbing his heart out.

"Master, I broke through, I broke through, I finally broke through. I'm eternally grateful for your immense kindness. I, Gai Shaoying, will remember this for the rest of my life. I'm willing to give you this life of mine."

"Didn't I tell you, I'm not your Master. Just call me 'sir' or 'senior.' Also, don't get too happy yet. You've only just started; what's coming next is even more brutal Cultivation."

"Senior, no matter how brutal it is, I, Gai Shaoying, will never even frown."

Yang Xiao nodded.

"How much do you know about the Heavenly Dragon Gene Evolution Method?"

"I know a little, but I've never cultivated it."

"In the Heavenly Dragon Gene Cultivation Method, there's Body Refinement, Yijin, Bone Forging, and Marrow Cleansing. I'll have you start directly from Bone Forging. I have a Bone Forging Technique here; I'm giving you one day to memorize it thoroughly."

Gai Shaoying only spent half a day to fully memorize and complete the Cultivation.

"Good, not bad. From now on, you're going to do Bone Forging. Take this hammer and shatter the bones in your body inch by inch, then circulate the Bone Forging Technique to regrow the bones.

Originally, the Bone Forging of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Skill was paired with a specialized potion that could lessen the pain and speed up bone regeneration. But I don't have that potion now, so you'll have to rely purely on your willpower to endure. It's probably going to be quite painful."

"I'm not afraid!"

"This isn't about being afraid or not; it's that it really is extremely painful. The only fortunate thing is, I have a pool of Genetic Evolution Spring Water here. You can soak in the spring while running the Bone Forging Technique. It should moderately reduce your pain, and at the same time speed up bone regeneration."

Gai Shaoying sat in the spring pool, gripping a specially made hammer. He gritted his teeth and brought it down on his left hand.

"Ah!"

Even though he had a thick wad of cloth clenched between his teeth, he still let out a miserable scream.

Enduring the pain, he struck again.

"Ah!"

A third strike, a fourth strike...

Yang Xiao sat in the garden, savoring tea, holding a book, watching leisurely.

To be honest, he couldn't help but admire this kid's willpower.

Yang Xiao still remembered back when he himself was cultivating the Bone Forgoring Technique; many of those cultivating alongside him got stuck at this step, never able to bring themselves to do it, and thus unable to break through.

Back then, they even had auxiliary Cultivation potions to drink, so the pain was far less intense than this.

Each time Gai Shaoying smashed apart a section of bone, he would immediately run the Bone Forging Technique to rapidly regenerate it.

Fortunately, the Genetic Evolution Energy within the spring gave him tremendous support.

After one week, Gai Shaoying shattered all the bones in his body once and then repaired them anew.

"Master, my Genetic Evolution Space has risen again."

Gai Shaoying said excitedly.

"I told you not to call me Master. If you go around calling me that outside, aren't you just making me lose face?"

"..."

"Continue Bone Forging. Three days, one full round."

"@#￥%"

The second round of Bone Forging was indeed much faster.

Three days later, Gai Shaoying said excitedly:

"Master, my Genetic Evolution Space has increased again."

"Do it again. Two days this time."

After two days, Yang Xiao had Gai Shaoying re-enter the Particle Beam Body Refining Cultivation Field and the Genetic Evolution Energy Cultivation Field.

In just about ten days, Gai Shaoying's Genetic Evolution rose another tier, reaching the Empire Level Primary Level Realm.

"Kid, I've already repaired your Genetic Evolution Talent. The genes that were damaged by illness in the past have completely recovered, and have been optimized quite a bit. As for your exact potential for improvement, I can't say for sure. Starting tomorrow, you're coming with me to cultivate outside."

Yang Xiao brought Gai Shaoying to the ruins of the 101 Cultivation Field. This place had once been the key site where Yang Xiao made his breakthrough in Wuji Academy.

The secret of the 101 Cultivation Field was known only to Xing Zhe and Yang Xiao.

After Xing Zhe later returned to the academy, he had gone in alone to cultivate for a full year, and sealed the exit when he left.

Yang Xiao once again unleashed his Earth Split Soul Skill, opening up the underground passage to the 101 Cultivation Field.

Watching the terrifying power of Yang Xiao's Soul Skill, Gai Shaoying felt completely overwhelmed.

Yang Xiao had only displayed one move in front of him before: back in the valley outside Nolan Ancient City, where he turned a big tree into a cloud of powder.

Now, with just one Soul Skill, he blasted a hundred-meter-deep hole into the ground. The momentum was even more shocking.

The two of them jumped down into the pit, and Yang Xiao led Gai Shaoying to the core of the underground tunnel.

"Kid, listen up. We've already been at Wuji Academy for a month. At most, I can give you another two months. How far you break through in these two months depends entirely on you.

The Evolution Ability of this cave is dozens of times that of the outside world. I've brought you enough rations; besides that, there are fish in the nearby Underground River water—you can catch them yourself to eat.

I'm giving you two months to cultivate. Two months later, I'll come pick you up. When I leave later, I'll seal the entrance to the cave and reopen it when I come back for you in two months."

"Master, don't worry. I definitely won't let your expectations down."

"Didn't I tell you not to call me Master?"

"..."

Yang Xiao left the underground tunnel and sealed the entrance.

For the remaining two months, Yang Xiao didn't idle around either; he soaked himself in the Wuji Academy library.

The Cultivation Fields of Wuji Academy no longer had any meaning for him; compared to the Purgatory Dungeon of Shendu College, they fell far short.
