Chapter 5 Cultivation
Upon returning to his family, Yu Tianyun began cultivating under the guidance of his grandfather, Yu Yuanzhen.
Yu Yuanzhen prepared a gravity training room for him. The walls of the gravity training room were inlaid with many bones of the Earth Burst Bear. This kind of soul beast has the ability to control gravity. The training room built with its bones can increase the gravity amplification as soul power is injected, up to a maximum of five times the gravity.
Yu Yuanzhen slowly walked towards the wall, extended his right hand, and a wisp of soul power flowed into the crystal wall through his palm. Soon the wall began to glow with a dim, earthy yellow light.
"I've adjusted the gravity here to 1.5 times the normal gravity," Yu Yuanzhen said slowly after sensing it.
At this moment, Yu Tianyun felt his body become very heavy, and his breathing became much heavier.
Stand still, close your eyes, and carefully feel the changes in your body.
Blood flow increased, the heart beat more violently, and various parts of the body felt heavier.
After slightly moving his hands and feet, unlike the weight training, Yu Tianyun felt that every part of his body was heavier than before in this gravity training room, but it was still within the range he could bear.
"From now on, you will need to cultivate in the gravity training room for one hour every day. Under the pressure here, your cultivation speed will be faster, and your physical fitness will improve more significantly. However, you must take a medicinal bath every day to avoid leaving any hidden injuries or affecting your physical development," Yu Yuanzhen explained in detail.
Yu Tianyun can currently only withstand 1.5 times gravity, and he cannot cultivate for extended periods, only one hour a day. This is far more effective than Yu Xiaogang's weighted running training. Gravity training not only strengthens muscles and bones but also internal organs and accelerates the flow of soul power, thus providing an all-round improvement.
An hour later, Yu Tianyun finally emerged from the gravity chamber.
He took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air around him, and an unprecedented sense of relaxation welled up inside him.
He stretched his body and was surprised to find that he felt unusually light. It was as if all the heavy burden he had been carrying had been lifted off his shoulders, and he felt light as a feather.
Not only that, Yu Tianyun also noticed a slight increase in his punching speed and movement speed.
This amazing change filled Yu Tianyun with joy. He felt that if he cultivated in a high-gravity environment for many years, his body would gradually adapt to the powerful pressure, and his muscles, bones and nervous system would be greatly trained and strengthened.
Yu Tianyun believed that with this improvement, he would be able to achieve even greater breakthroughs in his future cultivation.
Next, Yu Yuanzhen instructed Yu Tianyun on combat techniques. Since the first soul skill was an amplification skill, Yu Tianyun could only learn close-quarters combat techniques.
Yu Yuanzhen also gave Yu Tianyun enough time to read books and learn about soul beasts and common knowledge of the continent. Yu Tianyun was smart and eager to learn from a young age, and he learned all this knowledge on his own.
Yu Yuanzhen was only responsible for guiding Yu Tianyun's cultivation of soul power and body, to prevent Yu Tianyun from going astray without realizing it.
Evening hours are usually used to cultivate soul power.
His days were packed full of activities: mornings were spent learning about soul beasts and basic common sense, afternoons were devoted to gravity training and honing combat skills, and evenings were spent cultivating his soul power alone. Although these days were tough, Yu Tianyun felt content. He could feel himself getting stronger every day, and only by becoming stronger day by day could he feel at peace.
After all, he had heard that Tang Hao had been wanted by the entire continent three years ago. Now Tang San was three years old and would awaken his martial soul in three years. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan was destroyed within five years after Tang San graduated from the Soul Master Academy. Calculating the time, Yu Tianyun had sixteen years left.
His current cultivation environment is much better than Tang San's. He has various cultivation equipment, a simulated cultivation ground, medicinal baths, whale glue, and a large supply of soul beast meat, so his cultivation speed is much faster than Tang San's.
With the current resource supply, as long as I persevere in my cultivation, I should be able to break through to level 20 by the age of eight. At that time, I will inevitably need to absorb a thousand-year soul ring. Before becoming a Soul Master, my cultivation speed will not change much. I will definitely be able to break through to Soul Master between the ages of ten and eleven.
Of course, this is all on the premise that one cannot relax for a moment over the years. Other children of the same age are not mature enough and are curious about everything. They certainly will not devote all their time to boring training. They also need to learn various cultural knowledge at school.
"So I have spent much more time cultivating than my peers, but in these sixteen years, I still find it very difficult to break through to the Title Douluo level."
There are many variables involved. If I don't have a particularly great opportunity, I can only break through to the Soul Saint level by then. It's difficult for a Soul Saint to influence the overall situation. To avoid the destruction of the sect, I need to have the combat power of a Title Douluo, and be a strong one among Title Douluos. Perhaps helping my grandfather improve his combat power is one idea.
To improve Grandpa's combat power, we definitely need some immortal herbs. I'm still too young to go out, and my older brother hasn't managed to woo Dugu Yan, so he can't get close to Dugu Bo. This plan has to be put on hold for now." Yu Tianyun pondered the future.
"The strength of the sect also needs to be enhanced. In the past, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan was very arrogant and looked down on other beast spirit families, resulting in a scarcity of affiliated spirit masters. Although the individual strength of the sect is strong, it is no match for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School boasts two Title Douluos, both Super Douluos no weaker than Yu Yuanzhen, and its mid- and low-level Soul Masters are several times stronger than those of the Blue Lightning Tyrant School. Overall, its strength far surpasses that of the Blue Lightning Tyrant School; its slight weakness stems only from being a support-type Soul Master sect.
"The Haotian Sect not only boasts high individual combat strength among its direct disciples, but also possesses a large number of affiliated families, making it the undisputed number one sect in the world."
"It's fortunate that the Haotian Sect has now turned into a coward, abandoning the four single-attribute families and closing its gates to hide in the Cloud Recesses. This has even caused three of the families to become enemies with the Haotian Sect."
"Only Titan, the patriarch of the Power Clan, such a servile person, still serves Tang Hao as his master. The patriarchs of the other three clans, especially Yang Wudi, the patriarch of the Destruction Clan, regard the Clear Sky Sect as their enemy. Because the Clear Sky Sect suddenly abandoned the four major clans, the four major clans suffered heavy losses, among which the Destruction Clan suffered the most severe losses. Yang Wudi's younger brother was captured by the Spirit Hall, and his son and daughter-in-law died at the hands of the Spirit Hall. As for Tang Hao, the culprit, Yang Wudi wished he could eat his flesh alive."
"Perhaps we could try to subdue the three single-attribute families, especially the Breaking Clan. As masters of alchemy, the Breaking Clan can bring huge benefits to the sect, and Yang Wudi's personal strength is extremely powerful among Soul Douluo, capable of contending with ordinary Title Douluo for a short time."
"And he is the only native Douluo besides Chrysanthemum Douluo who is familiar with the knowledge of immortal herbs. Yu Tianyun once searched for the knowledge of immortal herbs, but the sect's records only mentioned them briefly and did not provide any detailed introduction. Yang Wudi is very important to Yu Tianyun's plan to obtain immortal herbs later."
"Furthermore, the Min clan can play a huge role when war comes. The Min clan is good at speed and is the best scout. They can transmit messages the fastest in war and understand the enemy's movements. They can also do intelligence gathering work in peacetime and can transmit messages quickly."
"The role of the Yu clan is relatively small, which is mainly to make the mountain gate more solid. However, the Yu clan is also a force to be reckoned with. The clan leader is a pure defensive Soul Douluo, who can withstand a Title Douluo for a period of time."
"Currently, all three races are being suppressed by the Spirit Hall and are going through a difficult time. If they are given protection now, it will be much easier to subdue them. Bibi Dong has only been the Pope for three years, and the Spirit Hall is still internally reorganized and has no energy to interfere with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan. Even if the three races are subdued, Bibi Dong will not take any major actions. The most likely scenario is that she will continue to accumulate strength and wait for the Soul Hunting Operation more than ten years later."
"It seems I need to find a suitable opportunity to tell Grandpa about this idea. However, these are not things I can consider right now. My primary goal is to cultivate to the Soul Venerable level. Only after reaching the Soul Venerable level will I be allowed to leave the mountain." Yu Tianyun kept thinking about his future plans.
For the next period of time, Yu Tianyun stayed at Yu Yuanzhen's residence to cultivate. In addition to the gravity cultivation room specially built for him, there was also Yu Yuanzhen's exclusive simulated cultivation place - the Thunder Golden Palace.
This grand hall, located atop a mountain, receives and channels lightning daily, imbuing it with abundant lightning elemental power. It's an ideal simulated training ground for lightning-attribute soul masters. Yu Tianyun feels that cultivating here is about 20% faster than elsewhere. This will greatly accelerate his cultivation speed; he feels he could break through to level 30 by the age of ten by cultivating here.
