"You seem fine now."
"Yes, my injuries have healed and I can actually eat a whole cow..."
"Ha-ha-ha, I'm glad to hear that..."
Then the count was silent for a while while his look changed to seriousness and he spoke..
"We searched for information about Prince Kratos... According to the inquiry, it seems that he has arrived at the Golden Core Realm under the guidance of the Sect Elder, and he appears to possess a type of spiritual vein called extraordinary veins..."
Upon hearing the Count's words, Young Qing was a little surprised… not because of the prince's cultivation despite his young age, but because of his spiritual veins…
He had read about the classifications of types of spiritual veins in the book The Strange Man, and the description of exceptional veins was that they had the ability to absorb and refine qi at a speed of 500% of the speed of ordinary veins, which was truly a rare condition...
The strange man told him that he had natural veins... so the young man was a little surprised... The young man continued thinking until he heard the Count's voice
…
"You told me that I shouldn't worry about you defeating him.. I don't want to be rude but can you tell me your cultivation level?"
Hearing that, the young man was a little amused by the Count's confidence in him being shaken, but he was not upset and answered directly..
"Primal Stage of Qi Refinement..."
Upon hearing the young man's answer, the Count was a little stunned and speechless, while he spoke in an annoyed tone.
…
"This and you telling me not to worry about you defeating him... there is a world class difference in cultivation between you and him... let alone defeating him... you wouldn't even be able to survive facing him... you must be mocking me... damn it, and I am the one who trusted you."
...Honestly, the Count was angry when he heard the young man's words. The young man was surprised to see him like this, but he did not bother him or respond to him. He knew the reason for the Count's anger...
In the end, the difference in power between the worlds of agriculture is very large, let alone two worlds. Even the difference of one world is a barrier that only a few can overcome to challenge worlds larger than them and pay a high price... just as happened with him in his fight against the mercenary leader...
But to tell the truth, the young man was only reckless in his fight against the leader because of his psychological crisis. He needed to fight recklessly. If he had fought rationally, he would not have been seriously injured in exchange for his defeat...
After the Count finished speaking angrily and I saw him return to his calm, the young man spoke..
"Honestly, I understand your concerns... but let me tell you that that injury occurred after fighting against 100 men and their leader who is in the Qi Condensation Realm... and... I was a little reckless."
" but … "
Upon hearing his words, the Count calmed down more and wanted to answer him, but the young man interrupted him
"Don't worry about it… I'm 100% sure of defeating him… It's up to you to decide…"
After saying that, the young man stood up and continued
"As for now, I am going to cultivate and raise my strength. You can inform me when you finish making a decision."…
Thus the young man left the room, leaving the Count and Louis helpless and confused...
After leaving the Count's office, the young man headed to the training ground where the Count's soldiers were training... after greeting the knight Carlos and telling him that he would go into isolation for a while and requesting that no one disturb him until he came out...
He entered one of the closed training halls...
Looking around at the room, which had an area of 400 square meters, Young King was satisfied with that.
After closing the door, the hall was illuminated by some glass stones embedded in the wall. These stones are commonly used by everyone, as they absorb sunlight through the part visible on the outside and emit light inside the dark hall to illuminate it...
…
After that, Young King sat cross-legged on the floor where there was a rug for sitting in the hall...
Then he began to meditate, thinking to himself about how to train him...
"Okay then... Returning to my fight with the mercenary leader, the injury I sustained was really severe and I did not expect it to cause me such damage... Even though my body had reached the peak of world records and even developed it a little, I was still weak... Even though the mercenary leader was not a farmer... My body has been severely injured... This only shows that the difference in strength between the cultivation worlds is truly great and the gap increases with each higher world so that even fighting against someone who is even a little stronger is very difficult... So I cannot underestimate the prince, otherwise I will be the one who gets beaten..."
"Then there is no other solution but to cultivate vigorously..."
"First of all, I need to develop my body, and I cannot do without that, even if the strange man does not advise me to do so... According to the cultivation method, using Qi and the vitality of beasts is the usual method for Qi cultivators, but it is also slow..
If I want to speed up the strengthening of my body, I must raise my Qi cultivation, and by using more intense Qi, the effect on the body will be better, but..."
"According to his interpretation, the more intense the qi is, it will cause more damage to the cells and rebuild them. My strength will increase quickly, but that means more pain and may reach the point of being life-threatening... This is what makes farmers use different methods of assistance to speed up body building..."
"Then it seems I need to raise my Qi cultivation first."
…
Thus, after much thought, Young King determined his current training path...
After meditating for a while to stabilize his mental state, he began absorbing qi and cultivating according to the Golden Sea cultivation method...
After hours of cultivation, the young man opened his eyes excitedly
"Great... I have reached the middle stage of the Qi Absorption and Refinement Realm... Now let me try cultivating my body with this intense Qi."
The young man closed his eyes again and began cultivating his body... After a few moments, his skin began to redden, some of his veins swelled, and steam began to rise from his head... After remaining in this state for half an hour, his body returned to its normal state and he quietly opened his eyes...
He looked at his hand and began to clench and unclench it repeatedly and spoke thinking...
"Exactly as described in the book... jumping to use more intense qi to train the body, although the strength increases faster, it leads to greater pain... but this is nothing... I can endure much more than this..."
…
Once again, the young man closed his eyes and began to cultivate qi… and after ten hours, he once again broke through to the advanced stage of qi refinement..
Then he returned to experimenting with cultivating his body with intense qi...
Once again, his skin turned red, and the veins of his entire body began to swell, his muscles contracted severely, and he began to sweat profusely, but his features did not change at all, despite the pain he was experiencing.
After half an hour, he opened his eyes again, "Not yet.. I can still bear the pain easily and there is no danger to my life.. Let's continue to raise my cultivation level..."
Once again, the young man returned to cultivating qi, hoping... This time it took him longer, as he remained cultivating for twenty-five hours...
The young man opened his eyes again
"The peak stage… great, that's great, there's only a little bit left, then I'll start trying to break through to the Qi Condensation Realm… but first, let's test the amount of pain."
Thus the young man closed his eyes and began cultivating his body again…
With the same condition, his skin became red, his veins bulged, and his muscles shrank... but after that, his skin began to tear little by little, and blood bled from various parts of his body.
This time, Young Qing moved his eyebrows in an annoyed reaction... but he continued to cultivate...
Two hours later, the young man opened his eyes after the tears in his skin had closed and healed.
He inhaled and exhaled deeply and spoke thoughtfully
"I still have no problem with pain, but my body has begun to be affected and injured, and although it does not affect my life...but stopping the transplant before the body heals will lead to annoying injuries...so I need the transplant until the end."
.. "Now it's time to raise my cultivation and try to break through..
..
Once again, the young man closed his eyes to cultivate qi... and continued like this for 15 hours before opening his eyes in annoyance...
"This is annoying... No matter how much you try to condense the qi to turn it into a liquid instead of a gaseous state, following the cultivation method, the process fails..."
Thus, the young man remained thinking to himself for 10 minutes before stopping, complaining...
"Ahh, this is annoying. I can't understand it... It's getting boring... Damn it, I'll go walk around for a little bit."
