While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System - Chapter 527
“Calm down and sit back down in front of me,” Adam instructed, after Su Lan sprung up and formed a blade out of sword energy instinctively to defend herself from any danger.
“Why? And what is going on?” she asked, confused, but also very calm and indifferent, just like she was at the start of their battle.
“I will help you recover and breakthrough, so just sit down and withdraw your sword energy,” he answered.
The Branch Master just stood in the corner of the small private recovery room with a nonchalant expression, acting as if he wasn’t involved, and curious to see how things would turn out.
“How are you planning on doing so?” she asked, not completely believing him, but also not completely shunning the possibility of him being able to do so after facing him in a battle.
“Just trust me and sit down. From what I have seen, you have clogged up external energy pathways and a bloated dantian, and I believe it is due to a condition you have had since you were young. One that made you very frail and restricts your External Cultivation,” he stated.
As soon as she heard that, she was shocked out of her mind, and all doubts that she had were suddenly removed from her mind as she sat down on the ground before Adam.
She didn’t sense any malicious intent from him and he had no reason to harm her, while the Branch Master was overseeing him, so she didn’t hesitate in the slightest.
And it was all because he was the only person who had managed to see through her condition, with her never telling anybody about it.
“Your talent in the sword is incredible, but in all honesty, your body is very frail and your body can’t contain all the energy within your body. So, you have restricted your Internal Cultivation and bloated your dantian by intentionally thinning your own energy and filling it with the thinner energy,” Adam gathered.
“By doing so, the density of your energy has reduced greatly and so has your potential and foundation as an Internal Cultivator. While your body is still too frail and you haven’t been able to train it much,” he continued.
“So with you relying on your Internal Energy to reinforce your weak body, you have been able to reach your full potential and even with sword energy, you lost to me,” he added.
His diagnosis was perfect and even more detailed than what she had observed about her own body, while the Branch Master, was amazed by how skilled Adam was as a medic.
“Are you by any chance a medic?” the Branch Master couldn’t help but ask, despite wanting to act as if he wasn’t there.
“Nope, I am just your average cultivator that likes to dabble in everything,” he answered.
“Is there any way for you to help me? I am willing to…” Su Lan asked before Adam interrupted her.
“Of course, there is, otherwise why would I have told you to sit down before me,” he stated.
“And don’t worry about repaying me, since I am just doing it because you held back your sword energy and attacks when facing me. Although, I am confident in my capabilities, it would have been tough to face you if you fought ruthlessly,” he added.
He wanted to scold her for being so kind-hearted in the middle of a battle, but he could do that afterwards.
“Now then, being circulating your energy and cultivating as per your cultivation method,” he instructed.
Snapping out of it, she did exactly as he said and completely trusted Adam, having no other hope if she wanted to fulfil her dreams. Nobody else had even been able to notice anything wrong with her, so all she could do was believe in him and hope for the best.
Observing how she cultivated, Adam could see that she had a very high talent for cultivation and was using some sort of self-improvised cultivation method that helped her to enhance her sword energy, but her body was just too weak.
No matter how hard she tried to train her body and improve her External Cultivation, she hadn’t been able to improve it in the slightest and it had restricted her so much.
It had made her foundations unstable, and she was even afraid to progress her Internal Cultivation any further, since it would damage her body and damage her foundations even more.
“This is going to hurt a lot, and I will essentially be destroying your body and External Cultivation foundation, then healing it and attempting to strengthen your body. In the process unclogging all your energy pathways and getting rid of any impurities that are restricting your body,” Adam warned.
“Just go for it. As long as it allows me to get stronger, I am willing to go to hell and back,” she stated with great drive and conviction.
Adam smiled before turning to the Branch Master and asking if he could leave.
“Why? I would like to oversee the process and make sure that nothing happens. I must ensure her safety in your hands as the Branch Master,” he refuted.
“She is conscious now and is allowing me to do whatever I want with her body, so there is no need for you to worry or intrude. Just go along with your business and if you do decide to wait outside, no matter what, do not come in.”
He couldn’t argue with what Adam said, and looking at Su Lan, she completely accepted everything that Adam just said and didn’t show any signs of doubt or hesitation.
Sighting, there was no point going back and forth with Adam and it wasn’t his business to intrude on what was about to occur despite how curious he was.
But since Adam only had an hour left to heal her, since an hour had passed and the tournament was meant to continue after two hours, he decided to wait outside.
And with that, Adam was ready to begin after stating a few conditions to Su Lan.
