93 Training (1/2)

There was a noticeable lack of excitement from Dean but when he indeed realized that there was something interesting at the Zikel Clan he felt a little bit alive.

Feeling that he was getting a little too rusty with cultivation and having an arrogant or scheming behavior was thrown out the window in those 2 years.

His progress in researching the manuals was still at a 0 in 2 years but he now had so much more time.

It was about time he started to revise his knowledge on the [Battle Intent Manual]

Looking around the mountains, Dean was able too soon find a cave that would be able to fit him in.

There were no traces of any living beast living here, let alone a human.

In an attempt to make sure no one would intervene with his cultivation, Dean tied a few strings in weird angles to attack any strangers.

Taking out the book once more, Dean fell intrigued by two main tactics of training the Battle Intent that was listed out.

One had already been mentioned which was to imbue the Battle Intent into your body until it eventually becomes trained to become sturdier or much easier to absorb the Battle Intent.

This was the first one he would train in as the benefits given would resonate with the next training plan for Battle Intent.

The outcome of the second one was that the user would focus Battle Intent into certain limbs and become adept at the new power with he focused Battle intent.

It was less of a nurturing method but more of an adapting one.

If you imbue all of your Battle Intent into your fists, expect your attack to become undoubtedly strong however don't forget about your arm that could blow off if that part is not covered.

This would cause hurdles for the user as the blow may be weakened if they don;t reinforce the right places and could even cause self hurt to the user.

The training focused on slowly tweaking the amount of Battle Intent into a certain body part to allow you to not die but have a good control in mind.

Dean made sure to set the time limit within 1 year and hoped to see some results within that time

He would rely on his set of rations to count 365 days and he could gather water by a nearby river if necessary.

With this, all the preparation was done and Dean now began to study the absolute necessities to begin the first training.

....

Dean frankly found the first training to be quite boring.

It caused an intense pain at wherever the Battle Intent was nurturing the body part and Dean had to constantly make sure he wasn't harming himself in the process.

There was a difference between outright harming yourself compared to strengthening your body by refining it or breaking and healing it.
