Timothy's Pov
I awoken in the warm embrace of my mentor as I was hugged into their chest as I enjoyed the lovely natural aroma of the forest
when I finally got out of my teachers embrace it seemed to awakened them from their slumber
"I'm sorry teacher for awakening you"
"no you don't need to be sorry it's good that I'm awake now we can start your lesson on cultivating" they reached out their arm up to my head and started to ruffle my hair
"I will tell you how your cultivation technique works but once you start cultivating I can't help you"
"so to begin you must cover your body with something that can freeze like water then you must absorb the energy from the water then it will freeze"
"then your muscles will start to shiver from the cold and then you must inpower the heat your muscles make with the energy you got from the water"
"then the ice will melt away and it will make a byproduct energy that after being absorbed will end a cultivation cycle"
"just to get you used to this technique let's use only one of your hands then we move on to using your full body"
teacher and I walked to the side of the pond and I stock my hand in the water then I pulled it out and I followed the steps I was taught
I closed my eyes and focused on the water on my hand then I started to look for the energy in the water and after a couple of seconds I able to grasp it
then I slowly began to transfer the energy for the water into my body an as I was doing that I felt the water on my hand get colder and colder
an once I finally absorbed all the energy the water flash froze on my hand and I started to shiver from the cold
next I moved the energy to the muscles in my hand and then with the energy I inpowered the shaking muscles and then they started to produce a burning sensation in my hand
my hand was feeling like it was both frozen and on fire at the same time then I felt the ice start to melt and the heat in my hand lessen
once the ice fully melted and the burning was gone I was able to feel a wispy energy on the surface of my skin then I brought that energy to my center and I opened my eyes
"good you were able to complete a cycle without fail now it is time for you to move onto a full body cultivation cycle"
nodding to my teacher I stripped down to nothing then I jumped into the pond and started to swim back to the shores of the pond walking out soaked in water
then just like last time I closed my eyes and I began the process of absorbing the energy an intern freezing the water on me
it was horrible I felt my body stuck in place unable to move and shivering out of control as I was stuck in this frozen cage of my own hell
then I started to spread the energy into my muscles all over my body and what I thought was hellish torture became nothing in the face of what I experienced afterwards
it felt like hell itself was burning and freezing at the same time as I had to endure this insanity inducing torture but I kept standing knowing teacher was watching
I kept standing even if the ice numbed my skin that intern exaggerated the burning sensation going on in my body
after some time I found that the both sensations were slowly getting easier to handle till the sensation all to gather dissipated
I felt the wispy energy all over my body that I brought to my center to store it for later use
but then I felt someone pull me into a deep hug and I opened my eyes to find it was teacher that was hugging me
"t-teacher what are yo-"
"shush my student I'm checking if you are okay so please stay still and be quiet for a little bit please"
I don't know what has gotten teacher so worried but I happy that someone is finally worried for me so I just let them continue to hug me

as my young student started to suffer during their cultivation I felt a strong emotion brutally thrash out in reaction to what I saw
'th-that emotional outburst was powerful to powerful to be from the will of the yakshi it was a emotion of my own creation'
'I must follow this emotion it could lead to my purpose but I can't intrude now because it might in danger a chance to find my purpose'
the instant I sensed him finish cultivating I embrace with a hug and I started searching throughout his body to see if he was perfectly okay
"teacher I'm fine you don't need to worry about me I had to deal with much worse before I met you" the seemed to not help me as I felt a different emotion overwhelm me
"Timothy please don't say that I'm already having a hard time keeping it together if you say anything else I can't confirm if I will ever let you go"
"haha teacher I said I'm alright you don't need to worry this much about me please can you let go of me"
"yes sorry Timothy I just don't want to see you suffer like you just did"
"Timmy you can call Timmy if you want teacher"
"okay Timmy if you make sure to take care of yourself better and you can handle cultivating without me I will start cultivating myself"
"yes teacher I will be careful will cultivating so you don't have to worry about me" finally letting him go I walked away to begin cultivating again
