From Loser to Genius

Indeed, Lin Han, a person who had never even embarked on the path of martial cultivation, suddenly transformed into a martial artist at the second stage of Body Refinement!

In the realm of cultivation, as Lin Han knew it, there were distinctions: Body Refinement Realm, Mortal Martial Realm, Profound Martial Realm, Earth Martial Realm, and Heaven Martial Realm.

On Earth, the pinnacle of power for an individual was typically only at the Body Refinement Realm.

Reaching the second stage of Body Refinement was considered quite formidable on Earth.

Lin Han widened his eyes, his black pupils filled with an expression of profound disbelief.

Afterward, Lin Han seemed to recall something. He sat down cross-legged and once again activated the "Danwu Heart Technique."

This was something Lin Han had likely done almost ten thousand times, but today, the result was completely different!

Lin Han felt a deep connection to his dantian, and the black vortex within it surprisingly stopped devouring the spiritual energy he cultivated!

Everything happened so suddenly, so unbelievably.

"What an incredible power! Is this the strength that martial artists possess?" Lin Han felt his body was now exceptionally robust.

With a casual punch into the air, he created a whirlwind, dispersing the air as if it were shattered by his blow.

"I can't believe it. The black vortex is no longer consuming my spiritual power. This means I can cultivate, and in a place with such rich spiritual energy. It's almost beyond belief!"

All of this was too abrupt for Lin Han, as if he were dreaming.

Lin Han pinched himself hard and felt the pain. It reminded him that this was not a dream; it was real.

"Is all of this because of those green fruits?" Lin Han's gaze fell on the green fruits, and his eyes gleamed.

Whether it was becoming a second-stage Body Refinement martial artist or the black vortex in his dantian no longer consuming his spiritual energy, it was all a result of consuming the pills he had refined from those green fruits.

"In that case, I should try again!" Lin Han said these words almost gritting his teeth.

To be honest, the excruciating pain caused by swallowing the black pill earlier made Lin Han shudder at the mere thought of it.

In a totally strange world, everything was unknown for Lin Han, and he had to rely on his own judgment for everything.

To confirm this, Lin Han had to try again!

The black vortex had been present in Lin Han's dantian for at least sixteen years. However, upon arriving in this new world, a sudden change had occurred, and Lin Han needed to figure it out.

With trembling hands, Lin Han plucked one of the green fruits.

Wearing a bitter expression, he flipped his palm, and the white flame of alchemy reappeared.

Then, Lin Han began refining the essence of the spiritual ingredients.

In no time, a black pill emitting heat was formed in the palm of Lin Han's hand.

Lin Han closed his eyes and abruptly tossed the black pill into his mouth.

As before, the black vortex devoured the pill upon entry.

Soon, a sharp pain surged throughout Lin Han's entire body, lasting for about two seconds.

Lin Han instantly lay down on the ground.

His entire body's veins bulged, and sweat beads, the size of small peas, trickled down his body onto the grass.

Curling up into a ball, Lin Han tried to minimize the pain as much as possible, and his body began to tremble.

To be honest, Lin Han had never experienced such intense pain in his sixteen years of life.

While enduring the excruciating pain, Lin Han also observed the changes within his body.

After about a dozen seconds, Lin Han saw a stream of milky, water-like substance flowing out of the black vortex, sweeping over his entire body and entering his limbs and bones.

At that moment, the pain in Lin Han's body vanished.

Subsequently, Lin Han felt something emerging from the pores of his body, resembling black coal dust.

In an instant, Lin Han sensed an overwhelming sensation of increased physical strength. It wasn't an increase in spiritual power or cultivation; it was purely the strengthening of his physical body.

Yes, this time, Lin Han's physical strength had indeed increased.

Physical strength was a unique power. Right now, Lin Han felt remarkably invigorated, filled with explosive sensations throughout his body.

This feeling was truly invigorating.

At the same time, Lin Han felt that after these black residues emerged from within his body, he sensed a solidification, making his body feel much more comfortable.

At this moment, Lin Han truly wanted to take a refreshing bath, but as he looked around, there was nothing but green grass—no water to be found for drinking, let alone bathing.

Furthermore, in addition to the boost in physical strength, Lin Han also felt that his cultivation had increased significantly, reaching the pinnacle of the second stage of Body Refinement!

Just as he had broken through to the second stage of Body Refinement, the next moment, Lin Han's cultivation reached the peak of the second stage of Body Refinement.

Lin Han then once again activated the "Danwu Heart Technique."

He discovered that, just like before, the black vortex within his body no longer devoured the spiritual energy he cultivated!

"Such a change... Could it be because I've fed this black vortex enough?" Lin Han's face displayed a joyous expression.

Feeling the incredibly rich spiritual energy in the air, Lin Han's eyes revealed a faintly passionate light.

In such a cultivation environment, now that the "strange ailment" preventing him from cultivating had disappeared, Lin Han was about to reach astonishing heights!

Initially, Lin Han believed that the black vortex would eventually be satiated.

So every day, whenever Lin Han had time, he would cultivate spiritual energy, allowing the black vortex to absorb it.

But what disappointed Lin Han was that, for a whole sixteen years, the black vortex remained the same, showing no sign of being satiated.

Therefore, Lin Han secretly believed that he was unsuited for cultivation, as the black vortex could never be satiated.

This black vortex was like a bottomless pit. No matter how hard Lin Han tried to cultivate spiritual energy, it had no effect.

However, today, it was only today that Lin Han realized that this black vortex could indeed be 'fed' by himself!

It no longer devoured his spiritual power, which meant Lin Han could cultivate just like any normal person.

This kind of cultivation environment was something Lin Han had never dared to dream of before.

"If my father knew, he would probably be overjoyed," Lin Han thought involuntarily, feeling the changes in his strength at this moment.

Lin Han's father was the head of the Danwu Sect.

As the sect's leader, witnessing Lin Han's inability to cultivate martial arts, his father had consulted countless doctors, but to no avail.

Lin Han's father often found himself gazing at the night sky alone, lost in his thoughts.

His face was filled with pain, and Lin Han had seen his father like this more than once. Lin Han's inability to cultivate had become a major concern in his father's heart.

Seeing this, Lin Han couldn't help but feel pained because his condition had caused his father endless worry.

But now, Lin Han could cultivate, and he had reached the pinnacle of the second stage of Body Refinement. If his father were to see this, he would likely be overjoyed.

At sixteen years old, reaching the peak of the second stage of Body Refinement was considered exceptionally talented on Earth.

However, it was clear that Lin Han's father would never see it.

Thinking of his father, his mother, his siblings, and his sister, Lin Han stared blankly at the boundless blue sky. His eyes involuntarily glistened with a hint of moisture.

He didn't know where he was, but he missed his family intensely.

Being in a foreign land, his longing for familial bonds had grown even stronger.

"Father, I am no longer the helpless individual who couldn't cultivate, but you cannot see it. Regardless, I will find a way to go back!"
