Chapter 58 - Cycle Of The Deep Mines (2/2)

It was a fabulous feeling.

The Major Success Stage of the Nascent Herculean Physique was defined by several changes to one's organic structure, but due to its ambiguity, it could genuinely be anything. Some races with gills may have changes to it, some with wings may have changes to that, or those who were made of other materials may have other changes. The miraculousness of the Immortal Herculean Method was near limitless.

He was no longer five-feet nine-inches, but five-feet eleven-inches. A leap of two inches and his good-looks started to become more prominent. Whenever the overseer would appear, to not arouse any questions, he would hide in the back. Especially considering that the majority of people here lacked fat but had defined muscles from constant work. He, however, had both abundant flesh and muscles. Even Tao's scrawny appearance became more so.

This day was not only memorable because of his breakthrough, but Yan Zaizen also made a discovery. There was a group of nearby miners who believed that they had sufficient body cultivation to sneakily escape the pit through a climb. The moment they tried, the formation up above activated and sent a light beam of pure energy turning them into dust.

”I...see…” In truth, Yan Zaizen had hopes of climbing to escape if his soul cultivation didn't awaken. After achieving the Major Success Stage, his vital energies at its peak could be considered at the half-step Qi Unification Realm. However, this was in terms of aura intensity, as for his body cultivation actual strength, he felt that if he was truly at his peak, he could definitely go toe-to-toe with any Qi Unification practitioner.

”However, it's not enough.” He couldn't help but sigh, his voice filled with exhaustion. The amount of ore he had to mine each day became increasingly higher to the point where a majority of his time was to travel to a suitable place and mine for several hours. If it wasn't for his body cultivation reaching this level, it's likely he would truly die.

A significant reason why he could survive up till now was due to what Tao had taught him about the Dao aura of his. By infusing it into his pickaxe, he could strengthen its structure and sharpness. By infusing it into the Unyielding Flame of Life conceptual law, he could strengthen the lifeforce it emits. By infusing his Dao aura into his physical body, his entire self-changed dramatically, capable of exhibiting more power than before.

It was such a miraculous thing. It reminded him of a law, and how it could be used to enhance one's capabilities, typically via qi. However, one's Dao was essentially a universal law that could be applied to anything and everything. Also, it wasn't exhausting to use, as if it was limitless. Tao had once told him that those with a Dao had faster cultivation speeds, higher comprehensive combat abilities and even the ability to excel in many things.

At first, he was skeptical. However, now he could truly see it. He understood why the dao was seeked by many.

The sole reason he could achieve the Major Success Stage of the Immortal Herculean Physique was largely because of his Dao infusion during the transformation process. It was like an amplifier to all things, and it could also put immense pressure on others. If he didn't have his own Dao, perhaps several years would've been needed before he could achieve major success.

Despite all this, it was still hellish to reach the quota each and every day, especially in an environment filled with depression, despair, and death.

Well, one thing was beneficial from this sort of environment.

Yan Zaizen clenched his hand tightly. An inky black shadow was squirmy its way out of his hand. It contained an aura that was overly prevalent in the atmosphere. It looked as if it wanted to feed on the essence of death, and especially downwards in the pit. Whenever he conjured this conceptual law, it seemed drawn to the depths of the Deep Mines.

This inky black shadow was the Siphoning Shadow of Death; it had reached the Force-level, and even to the minor success over this time. It contained more traces of true law than his white flame, but despite this, the white flame still couldn't be defeated by the black shadow. It was extraordinary.

Despite its weakness to the white flame, it seems like it was getting stronger and stronger in this place surrounded by death of both the body and soul. It may be hell to others, including himself, but to the inky black shadow it was different — it was home.

”Ahhhhhhh!!!” A shriek once more resounded shortly nearby before slowly disappearing.

It seems another was pushed off.
