East Meet West - Chapter 263: Eat, Sleep, Cultivate/ Practice and Repeat 2

263- Eat, Sleep, Cultivate/ Practice and Repeat 2

Author’s Note:

Hello Readers!!!

Happy New Year to everyone.

So, on the eve of such an event, I wanted to make a mass release for you guys.

And I have decided to mass release a total of 5 chapters.

Also, many people have sent me gifts to show their support, but I wasn’t able to release the promised mass release a few months back as I got busy helping at my father’s work. And was not able to concentrate on writing new chapters.

And I also got vaccinated for Covid, such that I had some fever for a few days. So, I couldn’t focus.

Sorry for the delay.

But now I promise to all readers that I will give my best and also fulfill the promise made for the gifts that I received from the supportive readers.

After this mass release, I am also planning for another Mass release, very soon.

So, stay tuned and keep reading.

And keep the Power Stones coming… I mean voting with power stones.

=============

After Orochi was ‘washed’ up by Armelia, he returned to his room with a face full of happiness and tiredness.

When he practiced the ‘Mountain Cleaving- 3 Machete chops’ continuously for 3 hours, his fatigue had already reached as high as 70%.

Luckily for the ‘Stalactite milk’, he drank before practicing, such that maybe a small part of it was still lingering in his body and it decreased his fatigue by some amount, but after he spent an hour with Armelia in the bathroom, his fatigue once again reached as high as 90%.

Right now, he seriously wanted to sleep or at least get a small nap.

But he knew that he should make use of his time properly as he was still far away from stepping into the Transformation realm.

But looking at his state, he hesitated, and finally, he decided to take a small nap.

So, he slept for 2 hours straight and when he woke up, he saw that there was still 1 to 2 hours for the sun to set.

After he woke up, he felt very refreshed and saw that the fatigue bar was as low as 10%.

So, without any further delay, Orochi sat down and drank a dozen drops of Stalactite Milk.

He knew that these dozen drops of Stalactite milk aren’t enough for his Golden Dantian to evolve, but his body is barely able to sustain the energy released by it and if any more of Stalactite is taken then he will get injured internally.

So, he has to consider the limits of his own body when cultivating or else he would make a big loss if he becomes hasty in the path of cultivation.

And finally, after an hour all the energy was absorbed by the dantian. But it was still not enough for it to evolve.

So, Orochi drank another 4 drops of Stalactite milk and after some 20 minutes, the Golden Dantian finally reached its limit and it evolved.

Crack

BOOM

‘ding’

‘Host’s Golden Dantian has further improved.’

‘Dantian Potential has reached Rank 5’

‘+60 Strength’

‘+60 Agility’

‘+90 Defense’

‘+90 Resistance’

‘+15 Sense’

‘+35 Intelligence’

‘+60 Stamina’

And the Dantian specifications also increased,

‘ding’

‘The current dantian’s grade is Golden [Rank 2].’

‘Current conversion ratio of World’s spiritual qi to Host’s spiritual qi is 5:1.’

‘The Dantian can store about 39,999 units of spiritual qi.’

And just like previous sessions, Orochi felt his body was full of energy and further cultivation was quite difficult. So, once again he went to the courtyard and started practicing the ‘Mountain Cleaving- 3 Machete chops’.

This time, he was all alone in the courtyard, while Armelia and June were in their own rooms, and God knows what they are up to.

So, a lonely shadow of Orochi could be seen practicing in the courtyard with a machete in his hand.

And after almost 3 hours, Orochi stopped his practice because his MP was almost drained, which was converted to Spiritual qi and then continuously supplied to this dantian, and his fatigue also reached as high as 60% of its limit.

Also, his proficiency in the ‘Mountain Cleaving- 3 Machete chops’ also reached 29% from the previous 23%.

This might sound low when compared to the previous time, but it must be known that as the proficiency increases, harder it gets to improve further.

So, the next time he practices and tries to improve his proficiency in the ‘Mountain Cleaving- 3 Machete chops’, it may not even reach 32% unless he increases his stats again.

Once again, Orochi had to take a bath as he was fully drenched in sweat and covered with dust and soil.

.

So, like this, another 2 days passed.

And in these 2 days, Orochi’s daily routine could be described in a few simple words,

Eat – Sleep – Cultivate – Practice – And then repeat.

In these 2 days, Orochi was only able to increase the proficiency of the ‘Mountain Cleaving- 3 Machete chops’ to 39% from the original 29%.

And this speed is already very shocking if it is known to others.

Because if others want to reach the same level of proficiency as Orochi, then they would require a minimum of 2 months of practice and that is excluding the time required to recover the lost Spiritual Qi during practice. And if it is also added, then they would require a minimum of 4-5 months.

Which is more than enough for normal geniuses to cultivate to a high level and maybe even breakthrough to the Transformation realm.

So, usually, not many people focus on practicing fighting techniques and martial arts, as their cultivation constantly increases and the practiced fighting technique will not be able to bring out their full strength and they will have to look for new techniques.

Unless, someone like the Steward Rake or those who stayed at the same level of cultivation for a longer period, only they will practice fighting techniques to higher mastery levels.

But of course, like previously mentioned, there is no shortage of geniuses in this world, so of course, there should be many proud and capable individuals somewhere out there, whose fighting techniques are able to keep up with their cultivation.

Because they are the most talented and savvy individuals, so they can practice and master techniques in a short period.

But of course, in Orochi’s eyes, his speed was still slow.

His situation is similar to those rich people who make 1000$ per minute but they feel that it is still not enough, but in the eyes of outsiders, this speed of earning money is enough to make them red eyed with envy.

And even though he knew a way to increase his learning speed, he still chose not to use it as it will be a loss making deal for him.

But if is it to determine what the biggest gain of Orochi is in these 2 days, then it should be that Orochi’s dantian evolved another 6 times.

Yes, a total of 6 times.

And his cultivation is still at the high level Demi-Human stage. And has yet to reach the peak Demi-Human stage.

Such that it is finally determined that Orochi belongs to those unique, 1 in 10 billion people who have the Dantian Potential of Rank 12.

Of course, since he has not yet stepped into the peak Demi-human stage, his Dantian Potential is still at Rank 11. But anyhow, by taking the next step he will easily reach the Peak Demi-Human stage, so isn’t it already determined that his Dantian Potential is Rank 12, and he belongs to that unique category of geniuses that are the so called Special 1 out of 10 billion cultivators.

And there is one thing that has to be made a note of is that, he still hasn’t consumed the ‘Earthly Sea Coconut’ Fruit.

Yes, he hasn’t consumed it and still was able to increase his Dantian Potential to Rank 11.

When Orochi realized this, he smiled wryly as he was practically worried about how he was supposed to get or acquire the ‘Earthly Sea Coconut’ fruit, but he easily obtained them from Armelia.

But now he found that he didn’t even need them to raise his Dantian Potential.

He was worried for nothing.

But of course, he encountered some problems during the last evolution of his dantian, which he solved with a small experiment hence, he did not require the assistance of ‘Earthly Sea Coconut’ fruit.

And from this small experiment, he made a surprising discovery and because of this, he has a strong hunch that he made a world shaking discovery.
