22 Chapter 22: First Layer Heaven Limit
Translator: 549690339
“Jenny, your Jack has come into his own now.”
“Yeah, he kicked such a thick tree and broke it right away. As expected of a cultivator, if my old arms and legs got hit, they’d definitely be done for.”
“Uncle Isobel, you do have a sense of humor.”
“Congratulations, Jenny, your family has a cultivator.”
“Oh, please, Aunt Raven, you’re too kind.”
“Jack has just begun his Foundation Establishment, he still has a long way to go until he’s a real cultivator. Perhaps one day he’ll find martial training too bitter and tiresome, and won’t want to cultivate anymore.”
In the yard, the elderly folks taking a stroll showered Doris Raven with praise, and she modestly accepted.
Inside the yard, Jack Clark and Glenn Clark were dismembering the peach tree, shaving off its branches, chopping the trunk into sections and stacking them on the side, ready to be disposed of.
However, it was actually Glenn who was doing all the work.
“Bro, you’re the one who broke it, why do I have to chop the trunk while you just watch?” As he said this, Glenn rubbed his sore shoulders.
Jack, annoyed, replied, “Because you’re the one who wanted to see the Power of True Martial in action, so stop talking and get back to work.”
His shins were still hurting, he couldn’t squat down, what was he supposed to do?
However, Glenn was just complaining. After witnessing the overwhelming power of True Martial, he was incredibly excited and even more resolute in his determination to cultivate.
At night, the Hexagonal Power Lycophyte, over fifty centimeters long, lay lazily on the table, its face expressing a human-like languor, its black, bean-like eyes seeming vacant as if it were in a daze.
In the room, Jack Clark sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes tightly closed.
Inside his body, the Qi Blood was circulating continuously along the Dragon Elephant Power route, refining the extraordinary energy that had been introduced into his body. Each circulation made his constitution a little stronger.
According to the Cultivation Methods, the main focus of the First Layer Heaven is to strengthen the constitution, tempering the skin, flesh and bones to become more robust.
When both the constitution and Qi Blood reach the current realm’s limit, something will be produced from nothing, cultivating a similar True Strength to that in Wuxia novels, and then breakthrough to the Second Layer.
The basic requirement for reaching the limit of the First Layer Heaven is an arm strength of 300 kilograms, and a constitution about five times that of ordinary people.
This is just basic data. Combined with the cultivation of True Martial Arts, even a cultivator at the First Layer Heaven can unleash formidable fighting power, far exceeding ordinary people.
In the following days, nothing unexpected happened, everything was running as scheduled.
Every day, Jack would go to school to cultivate on time, seeking advice from Lori Parma whenever he encountered problems. Occasionally, he would exchange ideas with Justin Welan.
In addition, his Avatar, which was eating a lot every day, was growing visibly in size at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its evolution value was steadily increasing by 2 points every day.
Monday, morning.
On the third floor, in the cultivation area, Jack Clark, sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes, a bitter smile appearing on his slightly tired face.
Not far away, sitting on the sofa resting, Justin Welan said with a smile, “How is it? Can’t you accept this kind of intense loss?”
“Indeed.” Jack nodded.
It had been three days since his Foundation Establishment. At first, he was training hard every day, both his physique and strength were increasing by 1 point a day.
At this rate, he would reach his First Layer Heaven Limit in just a month.
However, three days later, Jack realized that the speed at which his body absorbed extraordinary energy during cultivation had sharply decreased.
According to his current cultivation speed, he estimated that it would take at least four days to increase his attributes by 1 point. He would probably take about four months to reach the First Layer Heaven Limit.
Even Jack was a bit taken aback by this gap.”Hey, I was in a similar situation as you back then.”
Justin Welan chuckled, “Enjoying that rapid progress when you just get to the Foundation Establishment stage, and then feeling the speed slow down several times after a few days, it’s really uncomfortable.”
“Otherwise, with the cultivation speed I had just after Foundation Establishment, I was confident I could reach the First Layer Heaven Limit in half a month.”
“But now, I feel it’s going to take me more than a month.”
Jack Clark nodded.
Justin Welan had achieved Foundation Establishment for half a month. Under such circumstances, he still needed to cultivate for more than a month, and it would probably take just over two months to reach the First Layer Heaven Limit.
This cultivation speed was about twice his.
Now, the strength of both of them was very weak, this difference did not seem significant, but when they later cultivate to the Second Layer Heaven, Third Layer Heaven, or even higher realms.
The gap brought by this talent will only get bigger and bigger.
Of course, being fast in cultivation does not necessarily mean one will become a strong man.
Similarly, in the cultivation world, there is no lack of records of ordinary people, who initially cultivated slowly, accumulating over a long period to surpass the genius, but this probability is too low.
Moreover, while ordinary people are striving to cultivate, these geniuses are also trying, such as…
Whew!
In the distance, Crystal Leinster, dressed in a tight-fitting cultivation suit, exhaled and slowly put down the long sword in her hand that’s 1.5 meters long, 10 centimeters wide, and weighs twenty kilograms.
The school’s cultivation area is divided into two types, one is the personal area for the practice of static exercises like Jack Clark, and the other is a wide field required for practicing sword formulas and sword method.
The surrounding walls were also reinforced with some high-strength material, along with some accompanying testing and cultivation equipment, which can meet the normal cultivation needs of most students.
A few geniuses who prefer quiet, or people who have cultivation needs, can also rent some special cultivating rooms from the school for a fee.
However, this is expensive, such as the activity room that Crystal Leinster and others applied for, which costs tens of thousands a month, and it also needs to be audited, reportedly taking two days to approve.
Crystal Leinster wiped her sweat and walked over after putting the long sword on the rack: “Jack Clark, don’t think too much, although your cultivation speed is a bit slower than ours, your foundation is solid.”
“Also, the way of cultivation values persistence, a short-term advantage doesn’t mean everything.”
Although Jack Clark rejected their small club that day, Crystal Leinster didn’t mind, as the class leader, she sometimes reminded Jack Clark of some rudimentary information about cultivation.
Jack Clark nodded slightly: “No worries, Class Leader, this discrepancy doesn’t affect me yet.”
At this time, Justin Welan curiously asked: “Class Leader, how much longer will it take for you to reach the First Layer Heaven Limit?”
Crystal Leinster wiped the sweat from her forehead, thought for a moment: “It should happen within half a month.”
This immediately widened Justin Welan’s eyes: “How is that possible? You only completed your Foundation Establishment two days earlier than us using the same Advanced Skills, so why are you progressing so much faster?”
Crystal Leinster gave him a sidelong glance and coldly sneered: “Because you’re lazy, look at Jack Clark, he cultivates as soon as his energy recovers and makes progress every day, but what about you?”
Justin Welan was speechless and said: “Class Leader, we are just high school students, not dedicated cultivators, why do we need to cultivate so desperately?”
“Moreover, it’s not just me who is resting, they are also resting, why don’t you lecture them?”
Not far away, Freya with her long hair falling over her shoulders was quietly reading a Taoist book on the sofa opposite her, a girl named Vera Lee was eating pastries.
If someone unfamiliar with the scene saw this, they would think this was a place to enjoy afternoon tea.
But Jack Clark knew that this was nothing more than their own way of recovery. Operating Qi Blood and refining the Extraordinary energy is actually very exhausting for Spirit Qi.
Whether it’s Foundation Cultivation Method or the present True Martial Arts, there’s no easy part about cultivation.
