The two year program that Gru had set up had to be strictly enforced, there was nothing else, Li Xi didn't even feel the intensity, the only thing was that he sparred with Gru one fifth of the time every day, and according to Earth time, that was six hours.
Inhuman torture, the whole six hours was a beating, being fatally beaten like a sandbag by Gru.
Gru is worthy of the second level of body refining sorcerer, hand extremely measured, to ensure that Li Xi every inch of flesh will be subjected to even pounding, in order to ensure that it will not let Li Xi serious injuries beyond the scope of his tolerance under the premise, but also as much as possible to exercise to him.
For Li Xi this opportunity is really rare, not the big family sorcerer apprentice simply do not have such an opportunity, can have a second-class body refining sorcerer daily accompanied by training, this is a kind of luxury behavior.
But it doesn't stop it from really hurting.
The pain is unbearable, there is no chance to fight back, not to mention fighting back, even Gru's movements can not keep up.
Gru's grasp of the war machine beyond Li Xi's imagination, he can ensure that every attack is just right beyond Li Xi a little bit.
Just a little bit, Li Xi can not carry, how many times struggling to drain every bit of body strength want to exceed this little bit, but in the end still be crushed a little bit.
This is a kind of psychological tactics, so that Li Xi never see the hope of victory.
Gelu will not care about Li Xi cried out in pain or begged for mercy, violent beating one-fifth of the time, absolutely will not waste a little.
Li Xi's body was three times the gravity added, no matter what action to do have to pay exponentially more power, heavy body is suffered Gelu's relentless crushing.
With Grue on the outside and triple gravity on the inside, Li Xi felt like a stubborn stone in a steel furnace that was being madly pounded.
At the same time as the pain, he could also feel the enhancement of his flesh.
"Come."
Li Xi's face grimaced as he drank lowly, the shadows under his feet tumbled and twisted, starting from his feet and spreading to his entire body.
The heavy body felt like it was being filled with power, the effect of triple gravity was weakening, the mana operation was accelerating, and the sense of power was back!
Facing Grue's heavy punch, Leahy spaced out his hands and
"Bang."
The entire body spun and flew in the sky, but it was obvious that the pain could be felt to have been reduced by half.
"??"
Grue, who should have gone after him and whacked wildly, hesitated for a moment, his fists tightened, the touch of the blow was not right, and just by sweeping Leahy, he realized that something was wrong.
The breath wasn't right.
"Kid, I advise you to put your shadow power away, or I'll only hit harder."
"Don't try any tricks, it's all for your own good."
"..."
Li Xi didn't dare to refuse, he originally just wanted to see if the shadow power could alleviate gravity suppression, whether it had any special performance when he was hurt, and moreover, he wanted to test his shadow talent ability in real combat, but he didn't expect to be recognized by Grue at the first sight.
But Leahy also initially got the result he wanted.
"Got it."
Li Xi didn't bother to explain, canceling his shadow power, triple gravity reapplied, and the operation of his mana fell into retardation.
The whole man hissed and lunged at Grue before being knocked off his feet by Grue.
"Li Xi, you have to go through so much torture every day, I think it would be better to just cultivate the shadow power in the way I told you, and you can be promoted just as well, so why make yourself suffer."
Zangani had advised Li Xi more than once, Li Xi had the Shadow Origin power that he had to envy, as long as he cultivated in a step-by-step manner, he could be promoted just the same.
Put in his world, Li Xi has long broken through the shackles, which can be like now, a body strength is not much progress, a waste of talent.
In Beng Jiani's opinion, Li Xi is doing this now, completely asking for trouble.
Li Xi didn't answer, and was busy with his own work.
Time was too tight, every day was full, there was no need to have no time to explain anything to Zangani, the beings of other worlds had a hard time understanding the behavior of sorcerers, it was a group of lunatics who pursued the extreme.
In the face of a packed training schedule, Li Xi could only squeeze in time to complete his experimental arrangements.
The first thing was the optimal ratio of flesh toxins, although there was no precision laboratory measurement data, but with the shadow power in place, it could appropriately allow Li Xi to regulate the ratio of toxins, relax the margin of tolerance, and roughly find the optimal interval.
But this was something that would take a lot of time, little by little, to try.
Different kinds of toxins, mixed toxins, even if Li Xi could only target a few now, it still required a lot of time to experiment.
To try each kind of toxin in different concentrations on the body's stimulation, but also to experiment with different toxins mixed with different concentrations, under different conditions, on the body's stimulation.
This seemed to be an experiment with a simple principle but a complicated process, but the results of this experiment would last throughout the sorcerer's career.
No matter how many levels Li Xi was promoted to, he would have to utilize the toxicity of the toxin to stimulate the body.
Now is the time to lay the foundation, it seems that all kinds of toxins stimulate the body at about the same rate, but even if the difference is only 0.5%, once the time is stretched to hundreds or thousands of years, the difference is a very scary number.
The other training arranged by Gelu could not be compressed in time, then it could only be squeezed in the one-fifth of the time for rest and sleep, and this was the only time that Li Xi was able to freely arrange.
Li Xi remembered Gelu's unsuspecting smile when he arranged the training schedule for him at that time, and understood that Gelu purposely arranged it this way in order to make him squeeze the rest time and not allow him to stop and rest.
Li Xi clearly showed that he preferred elemental sorcerers to body refining sorcerers, and Gru used such a small tactic to make things difficult for Li Xi, declaring his disdain for elemental sorcerers.
"Careful man."
Li Xi took out his lab records and scrambled to start recording the changes in his body, with the foundation laid in Gavage's lab, Li Xi easily started the first experiment of toxicity against himself.
Toxin into the body, Li Xi could clearly feel the pain and new life of the flesh, a large number of cells were killed, and then stronger cells were born, in the fight against the toxin, the cells were rapidly renewing and iterating.
The stimulation of the body is different between different toxin types, and has a different magnitude of stimulation for different functioning cells.
The human body was an extremely complex functioning mechanism, and although there were earthly cognitions that gave Li Xi a good start, many knowledge systems still needed to be re-cognized and reorganized to reach a deeper level of understanding.
After all, Li Xi's current body was no longer the frail body of the once earthly human, it was a strengthened body after being infested by the shadow power.
Many knowledge systems needed to be reshuffled to better change their established inertia.
Of course, with Li Xi's current level can not talk about any deep level of understanding, can only do in their own only knowledge cognition to develop and utilize.
The current toxin experiment is just like that, just a silly big thick passive experiment, talk about what is not subtle.
This is an experimental program that all wizards conduct, and even fewer experimental programs where all knowledge is made public.
The difference is that rich body refining sorcerers can find professional elemental sorcerers to build it, saving time and effort.
Those who don't have money can only experiment with their own body, and vaguely feel almost ready.
Li Xi has no money and no one, but also to be as accurate as possible, then it can only be consumed at the cost of time, sleepless experiments.
The good thing is that there are ten years of experimental material experience, Li Xi has an extraordinary understanding of his own body, do experiments with other people can not be compared to the advantage.
Originally discretionary time is not much, this alone has taken up a lot of rest time, Li Xi also want to study the power of the shadow, which is another destined to be hundreds of years of vast experimental projects, the current means are limited, there is no experimental equipment, can only rely on some of the Beng Jianyi's narrative, to build the experimental framework in the mind.
Then combined with the actual combat, constantly verify their own conjectures, for the future to carry out accurate experiments to lay a good start.
Two big experiments arranged down, Li Xi can be said that there is no sleep time, every day is busy, meals have to take time to do.
So much so that Li Xi directly took the nutrient solution as a meal, a few seconds to solve the problem of eating, saving all the time to experiment.
It may seem that all these things are wasting time, there is no gain in their strength, and it is possible that they will not see an increase in strength even after decades.
But only Li Xi himself knows, he did these experiments, every conjecture, every experimental data has a non-trivial significance.
But once it came to the moment when the experiment came out, it must be the moment that let Li Xi break into a butterfly.
"Hmph, hurry up and come out to get your ass kicked."
Seeing that Li Xi had been busy working, with various bottles and jars of experimental equipment all over the room, Gelu was furious.
Every time this time, Li Xi received a little bit harder beating.
...
Time seemed to have turned on the storm mode, Li Xi felt that he had only experimented out the single toxicity experiment optimal program, and the optimal toxin error was accurate to about 5%, and two years had passed.
Two years of time, in addition to the body adapted to the triple gravity, it was the single toxicity experiment optimal program successfully completed, as for the mixed toxin, and the shadow energy conjecture, these were just beginning.
"Kid, go, come with me to earn some extra money."
Gelu's loud voice always rang when Li Xi was doing experiments, Li Xi knew that he was doing it on purpose, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it.
"Mr. Gru, have you chosen the mission?"
As early as twelve years ago, Gru had yelled that he would take Li Xi on a mission once he had adapted to triple gravity.
And a month ago, Li Xi could ensure that he could steadily exert 200 points of attack power under triple gravity, and since then, Gru had gone looking for a suitable mission every day.
"Found it, three thousand miles away from the Purple Flame Sorcerer Academy, there is a new city called Tiama, it was only built less than a hundred years ago, the Purple Flame Sorcerer Academy needs a sorcerer to go forward to guard it, the mission lasts for 20 years, this is a high-dollar mission that I snatched from a group of elemental sorcerers."
Gelu said excitedly, being able to defeat a group of elemental sorcerers, to him that was something very honorable.
"I remember that the settlement of such a township quest needs to examine the population size, average household income, and the cultivation of sorcerer apprentices, and it's easy to get a large reward."
"Normally, such a task naturally many formal sorcerers rush to do it, but in the vast majority of cases, such a task will never flow out, and are all internally digested."
Li Xi looked at Gelu and calmly asked, "Teacher Gelu, are you overlooking something or forgetting something? I don't think this mission will be this simple, right?"
"Eh ....."
Gelu froze at his words, then laughed without any concern, "Who cares if it's simple or not, anyway, the mission has already been taken, and there's no way to back out, so let's go there first."
Li Xi looked straight at Gru, wanting to see if there was something he was hiding from him, there were some routines he was already familiar with.
"Bang."
Leahy didn't get the answer he was looking for, what he got was an oncoming iron fist, Gru blasted Leahy right into the room with a single punch.
"Kid, don't look at me with your ridiculous gaze, you don't have the right to resist, we leave tomorrow morning, you only have one day to prepare."
Li Xi activated the healing rune array on his chest and skillfully removed the bruises from his face, Gru's attitude was already clear, there was definitely something wrong with this mission.
"Yes, Mr. Gru."
Once the matter was decided, Li Xi could only hold in his heart even if he had more questions, he didn't have the strength now, nothing could change.
Knowing full well that there must be a hidden agenda within this mission, but if Gelu didn't say anything, Li Xi also had no way to start.
"20 years of mission time, I need some basic experimental equipment, a large number of basic materials, all of these need to be prepared, it's good that I have prepared earlier, so I won't be in a mess."
"Civilian towns rarely have the materials that wizards need, and there's no place to replenish them, it's never wrong to bring more."
Li Xi counted the sorcerer coins within the shadow space, it was hard to save 400,000, which was originally for the purpose of setting up a small laboratory for himself.
Now looking at it like this, a lot of plans would have to be brought forward.
Grimm Lodge.
The fat Toronto, after seeing Li Xi's figure, it was more than seeing his own father.
"Master Li Xi, you've finally come, I've just entered quite a few good materials here, do you want to take a look?"
"Toronto store manager, please don't call me that, I'm not worthy yet."
Ever since the news that Li Xi had sold the potion he had formulated to Purple Gold Flower was known to Toronto, Toronto regretted that his teeth almost didn't break.
It was true that the grade of the potions Li Xi could formulate was not high, but the potions were all bestsellers, no matter what the potion was, then there was no worry about selling them.
Originally, he and Li Xi were the first to establish a relationship, did not expect to be cut off in the middle of the road by that guy Shulqi.
Toronto can not be angry, are almost angry, want to do everything to pull Li Xi into their own store, means low to Li Xi speechless.
"Not now, definitely later, I'm looking at you."
Toronto smiled along, not caring that he had placed the title of official wizard on Li Xi's head.
Li Xi also did not correct Toronto's mistake and said, "Did you find the things and people I wanted?"
Because he had known for a long time that he was going to go out on a quest, Leahy had started preparing for it months ago, and he had secretly prepared several hands through Toronto and Shulki.
