I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 190: I Will Ask You Again In 10 Days

Following Lin Yao’s decision, Qin Ya could only communicate with the Heaven and Earth Dojo alone. Lin Yao had been living in the research institute for some time after the competition. The research institute had even arranged three rooms for Lin Yao: a transparent glass room where Lin Yao would stay during the day, a bedroom with a bed with electrode patches, where Lin Yao would sleep at night, and a room where the assistant taking care of Lin Yao could rest.

One individual had been given three rooms. Obviously, the research institute had given Lin Yao some privileges. Despite this treatment, no one uttered a word.

His advancement speed was too fast. On every bright and sunny day, he would have to undergo about three hours of strong electric current development. As for the (relatively) weaker electric current stimulation, he would go through it day and night without a moment of rest.

Lin Yao had been absorbing a huge amount of electricity, developing his body and growing his physique.

Due to his rapid improvement and outstanding talent, ordinary researchers were no longer in charge of Lin Yao’s electric current development. Only researchers who had passed the political review would come into contact with Lin Yao. Additionally, armed police guards were now stationed at the entrance of the institute.

A martial artist was not worthy of these arrangements of the research institute and city government. However, Lin Yao was not just an ordinary martial artist. He was a diamond genius that the country had to spend six months assessing to affirm his qualifications. The treatment of such a genius was certainly over the top.

Of course, given the arrangements made by the research institute and the city government, Lin Yao was also very concerned about his own safety. Although he didn’t request protection, he would always use the Good and Evil Distinguishment ability of the Tree of Heaven Punishment before each current development. If he were to detect any malice, he would not proceed.

Fortunately, Ninghai City was an ordinary city, so no outsiders were snooping on him. Coupled with the country’s strong political review, Lin Yao had not yet encountered any issues.

After receiving electric shock in the research institute, Lin Yao advanced rapidly.

A week later, while he was in the transparent glass room with the electric chair connected to thick cables, a striking electric current burst from the electrode patches. People could see electric current being emitted in the air with their naked eye.

The appearance of a large amount of electric current caused a burning smell and an ozone smell to waft in the air. While they stared at Lin Yao, who looked a little fuzzy with the striking electric current surrounding him, the researchers’ mouths twitched.

“It’s so scary. The electricity consumed by Student Lin Yao alone is equivalent to that of a small factory, right?”

“It’s true. One has to be at least a silver warlord, and a very experienced one at that, to be able to consume this amount of electricity. Student Lin Yao already consumes this amount when he’s only a martial artist… Tsk…”

“I don’t know how much electricity he’ll need when he becomes a silver warlord. If he becomes a king, I have the feeling that the entire city’s electricity will not be enough for him.”

“Alright, seal your lips. This is not what you guys should be discussing.”

Jiang Rong was the one speaking. While looking at Lin Yao, who was in a separate room, she didn’t seem that shocked or horrified. She didn’t feel any heartache about Lin Yao’s electricity consumption either.

Of course, it was not good to consume too much electricity. Nevertheless, if this electricity could be quickly transformed into strength, the country wouldn’t care and would even hope for higher consumption.

After all, the country had already researched nuclear fusion power plants and was building them across the land. With such a strong infrastructure, the country wouldn’t be concerned about a small amount of electricity consumption.

As the electricity consumption was so terrifying, there were explosions on Lin Yao’s body from time to time. During the development, Lin Yao’s room had already been vacated for fear that he would injure others accidentally.

Fortunately, Jiang Rong and Professor Li could monitor Lin Yao’s physical condition through instruments and then adjust the current intensity according to his condition.

After another half an hour, upon discovering that Lin Yao’s body showed signs of intolerance, Professor Li spoke up.

“Switch off the strong current and keep the weak current. Collate Student Lin Yao’s data.”

After this hustle and bustle, Lin Yao’s development for the day was finally over.

Upon returning to the room, Lin Yao lay on his bed and rested while he looked inside his body at his current situation.

A month had passed since the battle that day, and 10 days had passed since his battle with Du Ming.

These 10 days were not considered a long time, but Lin Yao’s physical progress had doubled again.

[Iron Body (489%)]

The figure had increased from 201% to 489% in 10 days. Lin Yao’s daily improvement had surpassed 20%. Besides, there had been a couple of days when the weather was not ideal due to the rain and clouds covering the sun. Otherwise, Lin Yao would have reached 500% or more long ago.

His physical progress was growing rapidly. With an adequate supply of electricity, his vital energy seeds were also keeping up with the physical progress. Now, the number of his vital energy seeds had reached 499, which was a far cry from his initial situation as a new martial artist. At the time, he hadn’t even dared to use the one vital energy seed he’d had.

Besides feeling gratified to see his physical progress, Lin Yao was also excited about the growth of the Tree of Heaven Punishment. As he had been in contact with electric current for a long time, the Tree of Heaven Punishment had also absorbed a lot of electricity. Now, the progress bar of the tree had already reached 30,000/100,000.

‘In another month, my Tree of Heaven Punishment will be able to advance on its own.’

There were also some things that Lin Yao was not pleased with. The first one was the Celestial Tree. Although Lin Yao had been absorbing light rays every day and the Celestial Tree would also grow this way, in order to develop his body, all the power of light he absorbed daily had been used for healing and optimization. Therefore, the growth of the Celestial Tree had stagnated, and the tree even looked somewhat withered.

When the Celestial Tree showed signs of withering, Lin Yao discovered that the two sacred trees planted in the Sea of Consciousness—the Celestial Tree and the Tree of Heaven Punishment—also needed energy to sustain themselves.

The Celestial Tree needed sunlight and spirit energy, and the Tree of Heaven Punishment needed thunder electricity and spirit energy. As he was exposed to spirit energy and sunlight every day, he didn’t know that the sacred tree also needed energy to sustain itself.

It was only when he almost exhausted his light energy that he discovered this. Lin Yao accepted this very quickly. Almost everything in the world needed nutrition from the outside world. This applied to both humans and animals. Plants also needed photosynthesis and water. The immortal cultivator said that it was possible to cultivate in seclusion, but they were also replacing ordinary food with the spirit energy of heaven and earth. Naturally, the same applied to Lin Yao’s sacred trees.

The Celestial Tree needed light energy to sustain itself, but Lin Yao needed the power of light to heal and optimize his body. As a result, the Celestial Tree hadn’t grown in the slightest in the past 10 days.

His mental strength hadn’t improved either. Senior Sister Jiang Rong had once told Lin Yao that a qualitative change would occur when his mental strength reached 100, and Lin Yao’s progress had stopped at 99 currently.

‘I’ll try to undergo brain development and meditate tonight. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if I can’t break through.’

Lying on the bed, Lin Yao pondered his affairs. Just as his body recovered and he was about to study something on the Internet, Qin Ya came. However, she didn’t look very happy.

“Did something happen?”

“The cooperation talks have fallen through. Because you didn’t go to the dojo, they feel that you don’t respect them… In short, they won’t accept the deal.”

He had been reluctant to attend the cooperation talks, and this was indeed a poor attitude. It was reasonable for others to be angry. Qin Ya also felt aggrieved because Lin Yao refused to cooperate.

She had been busy doing this, but the plan had failed due to Lin Yao’s willfulness. Anyone in her shoes would feel unhappy.

Lin Yao didn’t explain, neither did he console Qin Ya. He got off the bed when he felt better.

“Can you come with me?”

“Yes.”

After walking to the training room in the research institute, Lin Yao found a strength tester. This was a research institute that specialized in body strength research, so the training room had many pieces of relevant testing equipment.

While standing in front of the strength tester, Lin Yao took a deep breath. A moment later, an electric light burst from his body. As he was surrounded by electric light, Lin Yao’s hair stood up, and white thunderlight was bursting from his eyes. He had entered the state of unlocking the gene lock.

He had unlocked the second layer of the gene lock. His brain was connected to the electric current and had entered the state of thinking speed acceleration.

After adapting his consciousness to the strength of his body in this state, Lin Yao stomped his foot on the ground.

Bang. A powerful force caused a pit to appear on the ground, which had been constructed with special materials.

At that moment, by making use of the reaction force, Lin Yao had already used the thunderbolt flash technique and transformed into a beam of electric light, charging toward the strength tester in front of him.

Boom!

When he collided with the strength tester, the terrifying sound of a bomb exploding was heard throughout the surrounding area, and when the two collided, a ring-shaped wave appeared due to the explosion in the air.

The deafening sound shook the sky, and the strength tester made of special steel was bent. Then, a rebound force appeared and sent Lin Yao flying.

Lin Yao wasn’t bothered by this. After taking a few steps back, he looked at Qin Ya and asked about his strength scale.

“How is it now?”

“It’s on the higher end of the red scale.”

“What does that mean?”

After a moment of silence, Qin Ya finally said, “You have the strength of a high-level elite warlord.”

Each level had its own classifications. The level of a martial artist was classified according to the vital energy seeds into beginner, intermediate, advanced, peak, and finally, beyond the mark.

The same applied to warlords. In addition to the few levels that represented the progress of the warlord’s training, due to the different physiques when one advanced and became a warlord, the warlords were classified into ordinary warlords, elite warlords, and genius warlords.

This classification was based on the progress of the Iron Body—100% to 300% (Ordinary Warlord), 300% to 500% (Elite Warlord), and 500% and above (Genius Warlord).

As for Lin Yao, although he was still a martial artist, he already had the strength of a high-level elite warlord based on the earlier collision.

This might seem exaggerated, but it was normal when one thought about it. After all, besides having the Iron Body foundation, Lin Yao’s physique had also been blessed with the Body of Light, not to mention that he had unlocked the gene lock and the shackles. Thanks to the various blessings and the use of the Lightning Flash to increase his speed for the collision, his strength at that moment was very powerful.

“Do you think I’ll be able to fight high-level elite warlords?”

Upon seeing Lin Yao’s condition after he receded from the extreme state, Qin Ya shook her head.

“No, your strength has barely reached the bottom limit of a high-level elite warlord. It is difficult to maintain it. Overall, only your strength and speed have reached this level. Elite warlords are elite martial artists. High-level martial artists have explosive combat skills that can crush you in terms of strength. The geniuses who have comprehended profound meaning can even kill you in seconds.”

“Well, it seems that I’m too arrogant. Come here in 10 days. I will ask you again.”

“…”
