Second level of the martial foundation
"I think it best not to ask any elder and go straight to the library. Everyone was amazed when I used my flames, if this my blood having a reserve tank is not common may end up bringing more attention to me. " Wang Huo speaks.
After being implicated a few times by Hen Wuliao, Wang Huo realized that sometimes it was better to be discreet about some things.
"OK. So let's not tell anyone about it. " Ming Zhandou answers.
A month goes by while Ming Zhandou and Wang Huo were trapped in the cave as they had killed several beasts before entering the cave and their bodies were stored inside the storage ring of Wang Huo there was no problem with food or with the spoil meat
Having realized that they could be stuck for a while, the two began rationing the meat of the beasts a bit, along with the food they had prepared before leaving the academy, which allowed them to have something to eat for a few months at this rate.
This month inside the cave, Wang Huo was able to refill his reserve tank, but made no progress in his cultivation. Remaining still on the first level of the martial foundation.
Ming Zhandou has already made a significant improvement. Their wounds were practically all healed and he was close to breaking into the fourth level of the martial foundation. At that time he had consumed only one of the remaining pills, and two more.
Their moods were completely different, while Wang Huo was discouraged and unhappy at having made almost no progress, Ming Zhandou was excited by the rapid advance he was having.
"Ming Zhandou, let's break this lineup. Now that you're recovered we can try. I want to go back to the academy to be able to cultivate faster. It's better for you to stay here for a while longer. " Wang Huo speaks.
"OK". Ming Zhandou replied.
The two stand in front of the formation and prepare to attack.
*Boom*
The two hit the formation, but nothing happened with the formation. They were not surprised by this because they had not used their stronger blows, they just used normal blows to try to determine the resistance of the formation.
"Okay, we're going all this time." Wang Huo speaks.
Wang Huo throws a punch using his flames while Ming Zhandou uses his Punch of the Sovereign.
*Boom*
In the formation some small cracks appear after the impact, but the cracks soon recover.
Upon realizing this, Wang Huo frowns.
"It looks like this lineup is tougher than I imagined." Wang Huo speaks.
Ming Zhandou was not too worried about this training in the beginning because he was injured and had not checked her right. And besides this place was very good for its cultivation, making that it did not care to stay longer.
But at that time he realized that the cultivation of Wang Huo had not improved much, and this was beginning to affect Wang Huo negatively.
"You said you used that your reserve tank to deal the blow on the tiger, can you use it to attack the formation? ". Question Ming Zhandou.
"I believe that yes, after that time and in that time here prisoner I understood how to use that energy in my blows. But I can not control the amount of energy, or I use it all or I do not use anything. But I do not think that's a good idea, because it seems that this training will not be easily broken. "Wang Huo replied.
Wang Huo had taken a long time to fill the power tank, he was not willing to risk using the energy without many guarantees.
"Alright, so let's hit the line repeatedly to see if we're any luckier." Ming Zhandou suggests.
*Boom*
*Boom*
*Boom*
The two attack the formation with their strongest blows repeatedly, but the formation managed to regenerate very fast. Before they released the next blow she had already regenerated.
* Breathing *
* Breathing *
"It's no use. We do not have enough strength to break the lineup now. " Wang Huo gasps breathlessly.
The two had realized that their blows were not going any further they decided to continue attacking the formation for longer, trying to spend the power of the formation. But this idea also showed no results.
"I'm almost advancing to the fourth level of the martial foundation. I should be able to consume the two pills I still have. " Ming Zhandou speaks.
Another two days pass, at which point Ming Zhandou was absorbing the energy of one of his pills. Wang Huo was cultivating, but with his current cultivation speed and was having very few results.
On these two days Wang Huo had become increasingly agitated.
"Enough. I'm going to risk it. " Think Wang Huo. It takes a core of beast from the third level of its storage ring. After doing this he swallows the core.
The energy that starts to come out of the core comes out like an explosion. The energy begins to flow violently into the interior of Wang Huo.
* ugh *
Wang Huo's face becomes pale as the energy begins to rush through his body, but a few seconds later Wang Huo's blood begins to absorb energy.
The core energy is used to completely fill the Wang Huo tank. Not only that, after filling the tank with the energy, half of it was used to increase the cultivation of Wang Huo and the other half was used to fill the tank, which increased every time the cultivation of Wang Huo was increasing.
"It is! That's why I've never noticed this tank before, half the energy I absorb goes into it. It always happened, I just did not realize it. " Think Wang Huo.
After a moment of pain as he began to absorb core energy Wang Huo felt no more pain. The absorption of energy was going as well as if he were absorbing a pill.
A few hours after beginning to absorb energy, Wang Huo manages to advance to the second level of the martial foundation.
"I finally got it." Think Wang Huo.
The beast core that Wang Huo absorbed contained a lot of energy, Wang Huo takes three days to be able to absorb the energy completely.
"You've finally come out of cultivation." As soon as Wang Huo finishes absorbing the core energy he hears the voice of Ming Zhandou.
"I'm waiting for you all day. I'm starving ". Ming Zhandou complains.
"hahaha. Excuse me. I did not know it was going to take that long. " Wang Huo speaks laughing at Ming Zhandou. The food was stored in his storage ring, as he was cultivating Ming Zhandou had nothing to eat at that time.
"Quick and make the food." Ming Zhandou speaks in a tone of complaint.
After managing to absorb core energy and advance to the second level of the martial foundation Wang Huo's mood had improved. Not long after the food is prepared and the two begin to eat.
"How did you manage to advance level? When I finished absorbing my pill, I realized that you appeared to be absorbing a pill. I thought you had already consumed your two pills. " Question Ming Zhandou curious.
"Hahaha. You're right, I was absorbing energy. But it was not a pill. I decided to absorb one of the beast cores. " Wang Huo answers.
"WHAT? ". Ming Zhandou is agitated while listening to Wang Huo.
"Do not worry. There was no problem, I managed to absorb the core just like a pill. That's why I was able to advance level. " Speak Wang Huo calmly.
"Hm! Since there was no problem, I'm happy. We get some cores so if you can absorb them all your farming will increase a lot ". Ming Zhandou speaks.
"I will not absorb them all. Half of the cores are yours, I'm just going to absorb what is necessary to get the formation broken. " Wang Huo speaks.
"You do not have to worry about the cores, we can just find new beasts to hunt." Ming Zhandou speaks.
Wang Huo did not want to absorb all the cores for two reasons, half of them should be Ming Zhandou, even if Ming Zhandou did not care about the cores he could easily exchange these cores for pills to increase his cultivation.
Second, Wang Huo realized that it was necessary to have some recovery pills. So I wanted to use some cores to get points and trade for recovery pills. Although Ming Zhandou had had a lot of injuries they did not cause life threat to Ming Zhandou. But it could be a different story on another occasion.
Wang Huo had in total a level 5 core, three level 4 cores and five level 3 cores, already taking the core that Wang Huo previously absorbed. He did not believe that absorbing half of these cores would not have enough strength to break the formation.
Wang Huo and Ming Zhandou begin cultivate again before attempting to break the lineup. Even with the advance of Wang Huo, after realizing how resistant the training was, they did not believe that their power at the moment was enough to break the formation.
