Chapter 14 - Became Stronger After a Night’s Sleep (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A dragon head made out of some unknown metal was at the bottom of the box. It shone with a silver color under the faint light.

“What’s this?”

Yu Tian picked it up and immediately felt a chill spread across his palm. At the same time, he also felt a sense of familiarity for some reason, as if he had worn the item for a very long time.

After analyzing the dragon head carefully, Yu Tian still could not figure out what was special about it.

However, he knew that it must be something extraordinary since it was placed in the same box as the Yu’s Cultivation Method Book and the Breaking Barrier Pill.

Yu Tian was about to give up when he subconsciously touched the pendant hanging in front of his chest.

“Could it have something to do with the pendant?”

He said to himself.

Then, he removed the pendant from his neck and waved it in front of the dragon head.

As soon as the dragon head touched the pendant, the two objects stuck together as if there was an invisible force.

‘Click!’

The dragon head and the pendant became one!

Surprised, Yu Tian grabbed the dragon head and tried to pull the two objects apart. However, it would not budge no matter how hard he tried.

It seemed like the dragon head and pendant were destined to stick together.

“How strange.”

Seeing as he could not pull the two objects apart, Yu Tian gave up. He found a tougher chain to loop through the pendant instead.

After putting it back around his neck, a feeling of serendipity filled Yu Tian’s entire body, calming his frustrated mind.

“The two objects combined had created such an effect. Impressive!”

Yu Tian nodded his head softly as a peaceful feeling overtook his body. Since he was now calm, he could think with better clarity.

“If this goes on, will I become like the main character from a novel? Will I be able to fly and achieve anything I want? Hahahaha.”

Yu Tian’s eyes sparkled upon imagining the things that he could possibly do in the future. If the room was darker, one might be able to see the green spark twinkling in his eyes.

He looked at the Breaking Barrier Pill and said to himself, “Father said that consuming this pill will lift the restrictive spells that were cast on my body. Then, I can start cultivating! Hmm, I might as well do it now.”

Yu Tian picked up the pill and swallowed it whole.

An indescribable warmth spread across his entire body.

He shut his eyes and waited patiently for electrifying energy to fill his body, just like what happened in novels.

However, after waiting for some time, nothing extraordinary happened.

On the contrary, his body was completely relaxed.

“Huh?”

Yu Tian opened his eyes. He had a surprised expression on his face.

“Was that all?”

The experience was no different from eating a strange-tasting candy.

He sweated a little bit, but that was it.

Yu Tian felt rather disappointed. He was expecting to feel an immense strength that would take over his body.

“What’s going on? Is this thing authentic? Has it expired?”

Yu Tian had no idea that the restrictive spells in his body had already been lifted.

The young man shook his head and shifted his gaze to Yu’s Cultivation Method Book. It contained precious knowledge that was passed down from generation to generation.

After reading it thoroughly, he began to perform step-by-step breathing exercises as instructed in the book.

Yu Tian sat down cross-legged. Gradually, he got the hang of it. Inhale and exhale.

Time flew by and he felt at peace.

Half an hour later, Yu Tian came to a halt. There was a scowl on his face. It was due to the numbing and soreness in his legs. He had no choice but to stop for now.

“D*mn, not everyone can endure cultivation practices. I need to move my body around.”

Still, Yu Tian had not experienced any unusual changes inside him. For instance, he did not feel as if he had been overtaken by heaven and earth’s energy.

The curious young man found an array of fighting techniques recorded in the book. They were incorporated into cultivation practices.

One of the techniques looked powerful, even though its name was unknown.

Yu Tian had a feeling that it was mightier than the other techniques.

So, he rolled up his sleeves and started practicing each punch and kick according to the images in the book.

Perhaps his body was only average in terms of fitness, but Yu Tian could not get the hang of it even after several tries.

Fortunately, he was not someone who would give up easily. The determined young man started from the top, practicing again and again.

He only stopped after he was exhausted.

“Phew, I think I got the hang of it.”

Yu Tian wiped his sweat off before plunging himself on the couch. He was panting.

After a quick rest, he cleared everything up and took a shower before heading to bed.

Meditation and practicing fighting sequences really wore him out.

That night, the young man slept like a log. He even had a weird dream.

In his dream, there was a vague silhouette of someone nagging at him.

However, when Yu Tian woke up the next morning, he could not remember anything from the dream.

‘Perhaps I was too engrossed in practicing last night.’

He thought to himself before getting out of bed.

“Huh? What’s happening?”

The moment his feet touched the ground, Yu Tian felt that his body was lighter than ever.

Yu Tian thought that he was hallucinating since the change to his body was so apparent.

‘Is this really my body?’

Without wasting any time, Yu Tian walked to an empty space within the room and started practicing fighting moves again.
