Chapter 15: Closed Door Cultivating
After experiencing an hour of silence in the car, Cui Ming could easily withstand the awkwardness brought by three hours of climbing in silence. The only thing he couldn’t withstand was tiredness. Mountaineering, whether it was day or night, climbing with a beautiful girl or a handsome guy, was always very tiring.
Half an hour later, Cui Ming was breathing like a ragged dog, his stamina was depleted. The remaining two and a half hours, North Luna basically dragged Cui Ming, just like a ragged dog.
When they finally reached Zenith Mountain’s peak, Cui Ming was lying on the ground motionless;Sis, I am an ordinary person. Well, even if I am a quasi-cultivator, I am still just a Strategy Type one. You are a Strengthen Type, an engine that never tires. I can’t compare to you.
North Luna ignored his expression, grabbed Cui Ming’s collar to lift him up, and put him on her back: “Hold on tight.”
North Luna's actions were seriously insulting Cui Ming’s self-esteem as a man, but as a man, accepting the skins.h.i.+p with a girl was a must. Not only could he come in close contact with the beauty, but not doing this may result in a premature death. North Luna flung her four blades into the rock.and then jumped straight up, landing on the first sword before jumping up once again. The first sword ripped out of the rock before flying out and stabbing into another rock above.
One hundred meters was far, especially with someone on her back, but seeing North Luna after they reached peak, Cui Ming didn't see any sign of tiredness. Sure enough, she was typical Strengthen Type cultivator. Cui Ming suddenly thought: If the horse can cultivate Strengthen Type, do we even need locomotives anymore?
The Horse: If I can cultivate, why do I even need to pull the cart for you stupid human?
North Luna took back the blades, put down a packaged lunch in front of Cui Ming, and said: “Eat and drink as much as possible.”
After Cui Ming finished eating, North Luna let him choose a comfortable way to sit. From here it would be all up to him. North Luna stood behind Cui Ming, who was obviously restless His hands were still twitching after more than ten minutes, but soon he became motionless. North Luna looked at her watch, quite shocked. She had spent an hour entering the Envelop state, but Cui Ming had only spent ten minutes. Is he really a genius that only appears once in a millennium?
Cui Ming fell to the ground, quickly got up, and immediately sat back, secretly looking at North Luna. North Luna's face was expressionless. Cui Ming busily explained: “I never thought I could enter the Envelop state that fast, I better lean on boulder.”
North Luna said in murderous tone: “You’ll only fall if you fall asleep. In the Envelop state, you will not fall. You had better not to waste my time. I have already wasted enough time on you. I must remind you that what you get are life-long benefits while I only get a five-year contract to find a companion that will partic.i.p.ate in the Aura Alliance examination with me.”
Cui Ming stood up, nodded his head and bowed. “Thank you, boss.”
North Luna did not expect Cui Ming would be this serious. She was stunned and didn’t know how to answer. Just now, she was truly angry. If Cui Ming sat cross-legged and began to feel the Aura, it was impossible to fall asleep. Cui Ming had fallen asleep, and there was only one possibility: he simply didn't come contact with the Aura. Now, she looked at Cui Ming and thought again. She realized that it would be impossible for an ordinary person not to be tired if they had eaten too much, climbed for three hours, and then eaten past full again.
North Luna had decided to forgive Cui Ming even if he fell again, but she had guessed wrong once again. Cui Ming sat motionless, his mind was submerged into the world of Aura while North Luna used Focus to clearly see the Aura fluctuations. Cui Ming's body had a layer of light as red as flames, this was his Aura. Now that Cui Ming was still getting the feel of the Aura, the Aura has been leaked out. After the light was no longer expanding outward but wrapped the whole body seamlessly, he was successful in practicing Envelop. This level of cohesive Aura was the maximum amount the body could bear. The next step was to practice Refine to strengthen the body, and then practice Temper to increase Aura capacity, and after training for a long time, the Aura could reach the upper limit that the human body can withstand.
This was a relatively slow and long process that could not be forced if he didn't want the Aura to damage the body. Every two days, an hour of Refining and an hour of Envelop was enough. After practicing for a while,the growth from Refining became slower.
