Dawn of a New Era-Chapter 438 - 412: Astonishing Progress

On the way, Chen Shouyi’s nosebleed wouldn’t stop.

He could feel his heart beating faster, the blood in his body flowing more swiftly, and his skin beginning to turn red, emitting a scorching heat.

He quickly walked back home, went to the bedroom, and closed the door.

He grabbed a cup, picked up the thermos, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp.

The tap water left from several days ago had become as cold as ice water, yet it couldn’t quench his inner heat and thirst at all, as if his body was ablaze with flames.

Chen Shouyi drank two more glasses, but still couldn’t alleviate his thirst.

However, he wasn’t worried at all in his heart.

It was just an inability to absorb excess, simply getting inflamed.

He could solve it immediately by activating Giant Transformation.

With such a terrifying energy consumption speed due to this innate ability, even if he ate ten more pounds, eating until his blood vessels bulged and he was about to explode on the spot, transformation would consume it all cleanly.

It could even leave him so drained he couldn’t stand up.

But such a solution method is really a waste of resources.

He took off his clothes, threw them on the bed, and started practicing Horizontal Training Thirty-six Forms.

As soon as he began practicing, Chen Shouyi noticed this session’s effect was particularly strong. In less than five minutes, he suddenly felt his internal organs itch inside his chest, followed by his skin, muscles, and even bones gradually starting to itch.

Like countless little insects crawling.

Very subtle, hard to sense unless intentionally noticed.

But for a cultivation technique whose effect has gradually weakened over time, this effect was simply remarkable.

Chen Shouyi felt excited, continuing his practice.

Steam surrounded him, sweat secreted on his body quickly evaporated into vapor.

Fine white salt crystals covered his entire body.

After more than ten minutes, the inner heat slowly subsided, and after another five minutes, it completely returned to normal.

Chen Shouyi continued to practice for a while longer, exhausting his strength before stopping.

"Practiced a total of 35 times, quite a strong effect!" He leaned against the wall, panting heavily.

This number is twice the usual set quantity he practices.

"Wonder how the effect will be?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

He immediately opened the attribute panel.

Strength: 17.5

Agility: 17.7

Constitution: 17.5

Intelligence: 17.1

Perception: 15.5

Will: 16.8

Energy Accumulation: 9.40

Faith Value: 1.01.

He glanced at it briefly, immediately showing a look of surprise.

"Strength and Constitution actually increased by 0.1 points!"

The current Horizontal Training Thirty-six Forms had long surpassed the stage of rapid progress in strength. As his Strength, Agility, and Constitution each reached seventeen points, his progress speed became slower and slower.

Now, improving a single attribute by 0.1 would take at least ten days to half a month.

As for the highest attribute, Agility, it might even be difficult to improve by 0.1 points in a month.

Looking at the strength of 17.5, in his heart, he quickly calculated:

"It’s already over 2.1 tons.

This number far exceeds the conventional Martial Artist standard, but unfortunately, he doesn’t feel any change, neither the transformation from inside out as Ye Zong mentioned, nor energy generation within his body to bridge the Heaven and Earth.

"Even this can’t step into legend?"

"Is it lacking some condition, or is it because his weight exceeds the limit, with extreme strength far exceeding the normal Martial Artist standard?" He pondered thoughtfully in his mind.

However, he didn’t care.

What matters are legends; it’s not like he’s never killed one.

Even Demigods, were not spared by him.

Strength is the most tangible; all else is illusion!

Since his strength hasn’t reached his own limit yet, he’ll continue to enhance it!

Once his stamina somewhat recovered, he walked to the pitch-black basement.

A massive bird leg lay on the ground.

In the darkness, feathers glimmering with radiance, feet covered in mystical patterns of fine scales alternating red and yellow, and razor-sharp sparkling claws akin to rubies, aside from the bloodstains, the entire leg was spotlessly clean, exuding a hint of divinity and holiness!

This is the perfect creation from another world—the Demigod.

Even if it’s just a leg, it still emits a faint Divine Power, oppressing the heart.

But Chen Shouyi was unaffected.

He wielded his sword, approaching the wound.

Resolute, he sliced down with a sword.

In a series of swift cuts, he sliced off a big chunk of meat, estimated to weigh six to seven pounds.

Then he picked it up and left the basement.

He had no time to cook it like Luo Jingwen.

Back in the bedroom, he struggled to cut a piece of crimson, blood-soaked meat, put it in his mouth without chewing, and swallowed directly, realizing the previous portion was too little and the effect was not strong enough, Chen Shouyi consumed three pounds in one go.

His stomach was bulging.

Then Chen Shouyi began waiting for digestion.

This time, whether due to eating raw or excessive consumption, only after waiting for ten minutes did Chen Shouyi feel a hint of frenzy, his spirit becoming excited, followed by his body feeling like it was on fire.

Chen Shouyi dared not hesitate, immediately setting up a stance to practice Horizontal Training Thirty-six Forms.

This time, the frenzy was more intense and lasted longer.

He seemed to be completely tireless.

Practicing over and over again.

Never had he sustained a set for such a long duration.

He felt his stamina was infinite, continuous, as if it wouldn’t deplete.

The muscles in his body tightened with every breath, becoming denser and more elastic, while the skin became subtly tighter and tougher.

This time the duration lasted a full hour and a half.

He practiced the Horizontal Training Thirty-six Forms over a hundred times.

Once the Demigod’s flesh and blood were exhausted, as his excitement faded, he immediately felt a tearing pain throughout his body, his legs went weak, and if he hadn’t held onto the wall in time, he nearly collapsed.

"Hoo!"

Chen Shouyi exhaled, glanced at himself, and discovered small spots of blood seeping from his skin:

"Almost couldn’t hold on."

Horizontal Training Thirty-six Forms is inherently a high-intensity workout, or else it wouldn’t be effective for training.

During regular training, he could at most do seventeen to eighteen rounds, roughly ten minutes, before his stamina was completely depleted.

And sustaining nonstop for an hour and a half like today, even for him, the body couldn’t handle it, with quite a few muscles experiencing tears.

Thankfully, with Natural Healing in effect, it’s just a matter of minutes.

Chen Shouyi opened the attribute panel, and upon seeing it, couldn’t help but crack a smile.

Strength: 17.5

Agility: 17.8

Constitution: 17.6

Intelligence: 17.1

Perception: 15.5

Will: 16.8

Energy Accumulation: 9.40

Faith Value: 1.14.

"Agility and Constitution both increased by 0.1, such a strong effect! This is completely comparable to consuming True God Divine Blood."

After a short while, after calming down, he pondered: "This shouldn’t be solely the effect of Demigod flesh; it’s mainly the practice of Horizontal Training Thirty-six Forms. Demigod flesh just provided ample energy!

Yet this energy is clearly higher grade than Original Force, boosting the efficiency of cultivation."

Then he looked at the remaining Demigod flesh, unable to resist licking his parched lips, thinking it’s better to drink some water and supplement some salt, really too thirsty.

ps: Asking for recommendations ah ah ah ah.
