Dawn of a New Era

Had dinner.

Chen Shouyi was not in the mood to practice martial arts, so he lay lazily halfway on the bed, picked up a martial arts book and read it.

But his mind was not here at all, and he looked up at the mechanical clock hanging on the wall from time to time.

Shell girl treated Chen Shouyi's body like a playground, climbing up and down non-stop, and occasionally got into Chen Shouyi's clothes, crawling around like a little mouse, having a great time.

At this moment, the corner of Chen Shouyi's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly reached out to hold Shell girl who was trying to get into her underwear, pinched her leg and pulled her out: "You can't get in here!"

"Why can't you drill?" Shell Girl asked suspiciously.

"No reason?" Chen Shouyi looked at the shameless Shell girl and said angrily.

This place can also be drilled randomly!

"Oh!" Shell Girl replied in disappointment, and began to entertain herself again.

Time passed by every minute and every second...

He looked at the time again and suddenly felt refreshed.

Quickly open the properties panel:

"Energy value: 27.01"

"Finally... it's here!" He let out a long breath, he had been waiting for this moment for more than half a year.

Without hesitation, he immediately chose to practice the thirty-six styles horizontally to optimize them.

The familiar dream came again, and he fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

Shell girl was crawling under Chen Shouyi's clothes again. Sensing the movement, she crawled out suspiciously. Looking at the giant with closed eyes, she blinked in surprise. Chest a few times.

The giant didn't respond.

She went to the giant's ear again, and said loudly:

"What a giant! What a giant! Wake up..."

The giant still didn't respond at all.

Her eyes lit up, and then she walked lightly towards the target.

...

In the dream, Chen Shouyi practiced the thirty-six horizontal movements over and over again, and the movements changed slightly every time he practiced.

There is absolutely no concept of time here.

He practiced over and over again without getting tired.

It may have lasted for days, or it may have lasted for months.

Quantitative changes gradually turned into qualitative changes, and the original thirty-six postures began to change beyond recognition.

At the last stage of the dream, he suddenly felt a sense of fear, which came from the fear of dying, and all his cells seemed to be struggling in this fear, dying...

...

He woke up suddenly and opened his eyes.

He was gasping for breath, and there was still horror in his eyes.

Sweat soaked the whole body.

"How can there be such a perverted cultivation method that artificially creates a signal of destruction to force the body to evolve and transform itself?

This time the practice has changed a lot, completely abandoning the part of horizontal training, or it has been modified so that no traces of the past can be seen anymore, but the degree of abnormality and pain is far higher than any of the previous ones.

Practicing this kind of exercise once is like experiencing death once.

Chen Shouyi was so immersed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice that the wet Shell girl sneaked out of his underwear, quickly climbed down from his body, then pretended to be nonchalant, opened the picture book, and read aloud.

...

Chen Shouyi lay down for a while, got up from the bed, and walked to the window.

Looking at the dark night outside, there was a faint sound of gunfire.

After the war, Hedong did not become completely calm.

Since the mutation, Hedong has not been peaceful for a day.

Invasive species, wandering savages, the occasional wild spirit... civilians are killed and injured every day.

It's just that these simple tasks can't work for a legendary powerhouse like him.

His heart gradually calmed down.

"Try first!"

He went to the bathroom to wash his face.

After returning, he took off his clothes and began to try to practice this unrecognizable four times optimized version.

With a deep breath, his mind was highly concentrated, and his will turned into countless tentacles, blending into every corner of his body. At the same time, he began to practice the new version of the thirty-six horizontal exercises.

Just finished the first exercise.

A faint uneasiness rose from my heart.

Chen Shouyi continued to practice as if he had never heard of it.

The second type!

The third form!

...

The tenth form!

The fear in my heart became stronger and stronger, as if facing a big collision between heaven and earth, the stars were shattered, that kind of helpless despair that seemed to be wiped out at any time.

If he hadn't concentrated his will and completely forgotten himself at this time, he might not be able to maintain it long ago.

The twelfth style!

His skin was cold and his hair stood on end, his body began to tremble uncontrollably, sweat oozed out like a fountain, a large puddle of water had accumulated on the smooth floor, and his mind showed signs of instability.

The fifteenth form!

Fear has turned into substance, the breath of death permeated his body, and panic rose from his heart irresistibly.

His heart trembled, and he was forced to withdraw from cultivation.

"call……"

"call……"

Holding his knees, he breathed like a bellows.

At this moment, the muscles all over his body spasmed involuntarily, and his body couldn't help trembling slightly.

"How come there is such a terrifying skill, it is several times more terrifying than facing the might of a true god!"

When he broke free from the fear, he found that he was a little exhausted, not only physically, but also mentally, and felt a faint sense of hunger at the same time.

"The physical exertion is so serious!" He was slightly taken aback.

You must know that it is difficult to consume his physical strength during the original thirty-six horizontal exercises. If you don't eat demigod meat, you can only practice forty or fifty times in a row.

But this time, he didn't finish practicing all the time.

"continue!"

Chen Shouyi gritted his teeth, feeling ruthless in his heart!

He took out a piece of demigod meat from the space, tore it vigorously with his teeth, and ate it hungrily.

After recovering his mind, he started to practice again.

This time, with mental preparation, the situation became much better. After practicing the 18th posture in a row, I was startled awake by fear.

...

Chen Shouyi rested for a while and continued to practice.

Time passed slowly, until dawn, and Chen Shouyi hadn't finished practicing completely.

After the eighteenth form, every step forward becomes extremely difficult.

The best time, I practiced the 23rd form, and the worst time, I didn't even practice the 17th form.

Chen Shouyi stopped exhausted.

Clutching his drowsy head, he walked to the bathroom, glanced at the mirror from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but pause in his footsteps.

The self in the mirror looked extremely haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and even his cheeks seemed thinner, as if he had suffered a serious illness.

"This kind of cultivation method consumes too much!" He thought in his heart: "If it is not supported by demigod flesh, ordinary food will not be able to support this kind of cultivation."

He checked the properties panel.

His face was stunned.

His physical attributes didn't change much.

Will has increased by 0.2.

"Unexpectedly, the effect of this exercise on the improvement of will is stronger!"

With a thought, Chen Shouyi thought,

next moment,

His feet left the ground and flew up, more than twice as fast as before crawling like a snail.

It can already be compared with...flies.

...

ps: Sorry, I don't eat shit.
