Chapter 569 - The Body Sects Cultivation Method (2/2)

Tang Wulin was undoubtedly a G.o.dly talent, not just in terms of his physical abilities, but in his willpower as well.

Although the Body Sect has existed even longer than the Tang Sect, they were never able to grow as great as the latter. A large part of this was due to the savage nature of their cultivation methods. Disciples of the Body Sect needed an immense amount of willpower to endure the torturous training. Without such willpower, they would never be able to persevere and inherit the legacies of the sect.

Mu Ye thrust his palm into Tang Wulin's chest and in response, Tang Wulin shuddered. Then Mu Ye rapidly slapped Tang Wulin's chest dozens of times in the next few seconds.

A golden aura enveloped Mu Ye's hands with every slap, each imparting a wisp of golden energy into Tang Wulin's body, each causing his unconscious body to quiver. The golden aura darkened, and so did the energy infused into him. A network of golden lines rose to the surface of his skin to give off a faint glow. They bore a slight resemblance to his scales, except these lines covered his entire body.

Tang Wulin's quivering slowly settled down as time pa.s.sed, until they could only be described as subtle twitching.

“He's even better than I thought. This kid has the most powerful blood essence I've ever seen! It was worth it to take him in even if I have to share.”

While unconscious, Tang Wulin felt as if he had entered a giant furnace and was being baked alive. His blood vessels were bursting as blood surged through them, circulating a scorching type of heat. One that made him desire both life and death at the same time.

The pain eventually subsided and Tang Wulin dove into a deep slumber.

At the sound of knocking on his door, Tang Wulin slowly opened his eyes. He was completely drained of strength and could barely open his mouth as he lay there. “Who is it?”

“Captain, it's time to eat!”

Tang Wulin bolted upright the moment he heard those words. No matter how battered and fatigued he felt, food was worth enduring the pain! He did not think with his brain, but his stomach!

He hopped off his bed and approached the door, catching a glimpse of himself in the mirror. Naked. He was completely naked. Right there, that was his s.h.i.+ny b.u.t.t, and over there were his other bits. Last night's brush with death suddenly burst into mind, the images bright and vivid. He glanced at the balcony door. It was shut. Was it all a dream? No way! That felt too real to have been a dream.

“Uh, gimme a minute. I'll be out right away.” Tang Wulin quickly washed his face, but didn't have the strength to lift up his toothbrush. His entire body felt like jelly. After throwing on some clothes, he left his room and was greeted by his friends.

“What's with you?” Gu Yue asked.

“Yeah! Captain, why are you so pale?” Xie Xie asked, shocked. “You okay?”

Tang Wulin truly cut a haggard figure. Dark bags drooped under his eyes and his skin was as pale as the dead. He even moved as if he were dead too, sluggishly and without any grace. There was not a hint of energy in his usually brilliant eyes.

“It's nothing. I just ran into some trouble cultivating last night, so I don't feel that well right now. Let's get going” He walked over to Xu Lizhi, slinging his arm around his friend's shoulders, his hunger apparent from his gaze. “I'm starving. Lizhi, can you give me some buns to tide me over first?”

Gu Yue's expression loosened a bit when she saw Tang Wulin's typical action.

Xie Xie snuck over to Tang Wulin's side and whispered, “Boss, don't tell me you were having trouble sleeping last night after seeing Gu Yue's dance? It's not good to have too many delusions, you know?”

Although Tang Wulin itched to toss Xie Xie overboard that instant, he lacked the strength. All he could do was send a sharp look his teammate's way.
