17. Late Night In The Jail.
Deep into the night. The moon and stars
weren't visible in today's sky, so the cell
Han Sen resided in was completely dark.
Only the roads outside of the cell had
some light.
[HU~~~] snores kept ringing throughout
the cell, showing that virtually everyone
was in deep sleep.
Suddenly--
On the left bed, Han Sen , who was
originally lying in rest, sat up. His legs
were crossed and his soles faced forwards.
His hands rested on his legs and his back
was perfectly straight.
"According to the article I saw at the Limit
Hall, there is only one type of genetic
energy training on earth--Wu Xin Xiang
Tian training. Once someone reaches the
body fitness level of a fighter, they usually
are able to start their genetic energy
training right away" Han Sen took in a
deep breath, "The article said that the first
'feeling' is the hardest!"To absorb the cosmic energy, you need to
be able to sense them first.
According to the article, this energy is
spread around the earth. Even the stars in
the universe has this energy. However.....
most people can't detect the presence of
the energy.
"As long as I can do the 'feeling', it'll be easy
to absorb them"
"The talented people can sense the
energies on their first day of training. The
less talented fighters take up to one and a
half years just to sense the energy" Han Sen adjusted his breathing and kept the
position of the Wu Xin Xiang Tian
technique. The Wu Xin* refers to 'the two
soles, the two palms, and the main artery
in the head'.
*TL note: Wu Xin means Five Hearts.
Breathe.....
Han Sen's breathing slowly stabilized. As he stabilized himself, Han Sen could feel
his heart becoming calm.
"My body has to loosen up. The Wu Xin
Xiang Tian is a natural process. I have to
calm my heart, calm my heart like a lake in
the reflection of a mirror" Han Sen's self
control was good so he was able to slowly
calm himself, even his heart was calmed.
It was completely silent. His breathing
could barely be heard.
One minute, two minutes..... thirty
minutes, one hour.....
"Hm?" Han Sen suddenly opened his eyes,
"Where is this so called energy? How come
I can't sense it? My heart and body
should've been very calm just now. Maybe,
like the article said, a talented person can
succeed on the first day, but an untalented
person would take one and a half years to
sense the energy?"
"I'll try again" Han Sen shut his eyes and
tried to feel the energy described in the
article.Relaxed, quiet.
These were the two points that the Wu Xin
Xiang Tian technique stressed the most.
"Still not right" Half an hour later, Han
Sen opened his eyes.
Han Sen has witnessed that the first stage
of genetic energy training--feeling��is
very difficult.
"I'll try one last time. If I don't succeed I'll
wait until tomorrow night. I hope I can
succeed" Han Sen hoped in his heart, shut
his eyes, and started to calm himself again
in order to sense the energy.
Time passed slowly, ten minutes..... thirty
minutes..... fifty minutes..... one hour and
twenty minutes.....
"How come it's still not working?"
In his almost meditative state, Han Sen's
thoughts started to slow down too.
Slowly.....
In this almost meditative state, Han Sen had a bit of hope in the bottom of his
heart, hoping to sense the energy.
However, as time passed, Han Sen was
falling asleep! A normal person who thinks
of nothing and closes his eyes for half an
hour at late night would fall asleep, and
Han Sen has been going at this for three
hours already.
About to fall asleep, Han Sen forgot to try
and sense the energy.
"So comfortable"
Han Sen , who was falling asleep, felt a
faint energy go through his soles, palms,
and the major artery of his head. At a slow
steady rate, it entered his body.
"What is this?" Han Sen was still half
asleep.
"It's the energy!!!" Han Sen abruptly woke
up and opened his eyes. The feeling he had
before immediately disappeared.
Han Sen never thought that he would be
able to sense the energy when he was
about to fall asleep."I felt it, I felt it, that must be the energy I
was looking for" Han Sen was extremely
happy inside, "According to the article,
once you pass the prospective fighter test,
many people can start their genetic energy
training. Even if you don't sense it
consciously, your body slowly absorbs it
unconsciously"
Han Sen knew that the feeling just now
meant that he was absorbing the energy.
However, this kind of absorption speed
was much too slow.
"It's that kind of feeling"
Han Sen shut his eyes and tried to sense it
again. He stabilized his breathing and
calmed his heart. His consciousness
focused on the soles of his feet, the palms
of his hands, and the artery of his head. He
tried to sense the energy he just felt.
He felt like he sensed the energy, but at
the same time he felt like he didn't.
Slowly, the feeling was getting clearer and
clearer.It's this!
A very small thing like a breath floated
slowly. When it neared Han Sen's soles, it
seeped in slowly.
"This is the energy" Han Sen focused on
the 'Wu Xin' and he focused on absorbing
the energies. Naturally, the speed of which
his soles, palms, and his head's artery
absorb energy increased; it instantly
neared to a hundred times the speed.
If we say that the energies seeped in like a
few drops of water from a crack in a water
pipe at the beginning..
Then now, the crack is larger and, like a
small river, the energies incessantly flowed
into Han Sen's body.
"Ah~~~" The feeling made him shiver to
the bone. The shapeless, colorless energy
entered Han Sen's body. The starving and
thirsting cells crazily gobbled up the
energy which came in from five different
paths.
Inside the cell.As the energies entered the cells, it was
quickly absorbed by the mitochondria and
at the same time, let out a strange energy.
This energy was absorbed by the cell,
which started causing earth shattering
changes. The DNA blueprints were also
beginning to change slightly, and the cell
started dividing, one into two.
Time passed slowly.....
Han Sen's body kept changing, whether it
was the surface of the skin, the muscles,
the bones, and even the layers of every
single cell, every part of the body has
changed. This change is life's evolution, an
enhancement of life's genes!
"According to the training guide, humans,
starting from birth, were unable to absorb
the energies. So in a state of starvation,
when you absorb the energies for the first
time, you absorb the highest amount.
Which is also the time of the quickest
strength boost!" Han Sen felt his fitness level changing.
On the earth and in the entire universe,
there is an infinite amount of energy. The
amount of which Han Sen just absorbed is
negligible.
However, to Han Sen, this is the biggest
jump in strength he has ever had.
The density of his bones increased, the
cells reduced their volumes and split into
two, the muscle fibers were enhancing
themselves, and Han Sen 's body weight
kept increasing.
Life, is so peculiar!
In the brain.
In a place where Han Sen couldn't sense,
the energies flowed in the depths of his
brain. Since birth until now, the three
shocks to the depths of his brain caused
three comas. And tonight, a huge amount
of energies were flowing in.
However, this change was different from
the other three times, it was more faint..... Han Sen , who was training, didn't notice
it at all.
������������
*[DING~~DONG~~]
Dawn, the sun just rose, around 5 or 6 AM.
All the bells in the jail were ringing. Each
prisoner began to wake up. Han Sen , who
sat cross legged for a while, finally opened
his eyes and smiled: "Indeed, this is the
most energy I'll be able to absorb in one
duration. I absorbed for almost 2 hours
until my body was full"
Han Sen could feel that he had much
more power than before.
"After last night, I feel like my fitness level
has raised even more than what my coma
during exams gave me" Han Sen thought
to himself, "My fist strength would
probably be around 1500 kg now, maybe
even higher" Only tests could tell how
much his strength actually increased."Time for breakfast, time for breakfast"
Quite a few prisoners left their cells to eat.
Han Sen jumped off his bed, brushed his
teeth, and washed his face in preparation
for breakfast.
At this time--
In the hallway, three uniform wearing
prisoners walked towards Luo Feng's cell.
One of them yelled: "Baldie Huang, I heard
a highly skilled person came into your cell,
beating four elite members single
handedly"
"Brother Liu, he sure is tough" In Han
Sen's cell, the bald brute laughed and
nodded.
"Oh"
The three prisoners exchanged glances,
and one of them said in a low voice:
"There's no mistake. The cell number, age,
and strength are all correct. Brother Zhou
was talking about him"
