Chapter 195: Ch 195- Cultivation
Five hours later, Mo Yuan was still sitting inside the container filled with Peak Realm beast blood.
He guided the energy absorbed from the beast blood toward his bloodstream, slowly mixing it with his existing Primordial Blood. At the same time, a portion of the energy flowed into his bone marrow, nourishing it and allowing it to produce more refined blood.
The process continued without interruption.
Thanks to his Ultimate Grade Devour Talent, the energy contained in the beast blood was absorbed at an astonishing speed. His Exceptional Grade Cultivation Talent helped him refine that energy, while his Body Morphing Talent allowed his entire body to absorb the blood efficiently.
Gradually, the amount of Primordial Blood within his body increased.
Then, something changed.
Mo Yuan suddenly felt as though he had reached the edge of a barrier. His blood began circulating faster and a strange sensation spread throughout his body. It felt as if every part of him had been connected by an invisible thread, allowing his entire body to function more smoothly.
His muscles, bones, organs, meridians and blood seemed to respond to one another more efficiently than before.
A moment later, the sensation disappeared.
The breakthrough was complete.
Mo Yuan slowly opened his eyes. A smile spread across his face as he felt the changes within his body.
"Finally, the Origin Lord Realm!"
After reaching Peak Origin Soul, he had finally crossed the boundary into the next realm. Although he had only reached the Early Origin Lord Realm, it was still a major milestone.
’Now, how much has my strength increased?’
Because he had tempered more minor meridians than ordinary cultivators, his physical foundation had always surpassed the usual limits. He was curious to see how much of a difference this breakthrough had made.
"Let’s check."
Mo Yuan climbed out of the container and stretched his body. He then walked toward the Primordial Strength Testing Equipment.
Without activating any talents, he clenched his fist and threw a casual punch.
BOOM!
The punch struck the equipment with a heavy impact. The entire machine shook and the displayed number began to rise rapidly before finally stopping.
20,000,000 jin!
Mo Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad."
His base strength had increased from fifteen million jin to twenty million jin. He had not even begun proper cultivation in the Origin Lord Realm, yet his physical strength had already improved considerably.
Then, he calculated the effects of his talents and techniques.
Twenty million jin multiplied by his Ultimate Strength Talent’s twenty-four times boost, Boundless Saber Art’s nine times boost, Blood Saber Intent’s two times boost and Primordial Qi’s two times boost.
The final result was 17.28 billion jin!
"Holy shit!"
Mo Yuan took a deep breath. His strength was already approaching seventeen billion jin and this was before he had made any significant progress in the Origin Lord Realm.
Next, he tested his speed.
His figure disappeared from its original position and reappeared several meters away.
"Fifty-two Mach."
With Ultimate Speed providing a twenty times boost and Shadow Walk doubling his speed, he could reach 2,080 Mach within the Shadow Realm. In the outside world, his maximum speed would be approximately 1,040 Mach.
Mo Yuan took another deep breath before spreading his Origin Sense.
It extended outward until it reached a distance of 1,987 meters.
After applying his Ultimate Grade Illusion Talent’s twenty times multiplier, its range reached approximately 39.74 kilometers.
Almost forty kilometers!
After completing his tests, Mo Yuan slowly calmed himself down.
’There’s no need to become arrogant. The world is vast and there are always stronger people out there.’
His next goal was clear.
He would reach the Peak Origin Lord Realm as quickly as possible.
With that thought, Mo Yuan refilled the container with Peak Realm beast blood, activated his talent and climbed back inside.
Soon, he closed his eyes and resumed cultivation.
Fourteen days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the morning of the fourteenth day, Mo Yuan slowly opened his eyes and stepped out of the cultivation chamber.
For the past two weeks, he had followed the same strict schedule every day. Twelve hours were spent practicing Boundless Saber Art, while the remaining twelve hours were devoted to cultivation.
Although the routine was repetitive, the results were satisfying.
Mo Yuan could feel that he was already close to reaching Major Achievement in Boundless Saber Art. His understanding of the technique had improved significantly and with his Exceptional Grade Enlightenment Talent, he was confident that he would reach the next level soon.
As for his blood refinement progress, it had reached 22%.
He was only three percent away from the Middle Origin Lord Realm.
’Not bad. My cultivation speed is still as ridiculous as ever.’
The only reason he had stopped cultivating was that his Copy and Paste Talent’s cooldown had finally ended.
It was time to choose his next targets.
’I also have two fusion chances available.’
Mo Yuan rubbed his chin as he considered his options.
’Which talents should I copy this time?’
The first choice came to mind almost immediately.
’I can copy Qin Wushang’s Berserker Talent and fuse it with my Strength Talent. The fusion should improve my strength multiplier, even if the increase isn’t too large.’
Qin Wushang possessed a Peak Grade Berserker Talent. It provided a considerable boost to physical strength, making it a good match for Mo Yuan’s Ultimate Grade Strength Talent.
Although he didn’t expect the fusion to produce an enormous improvement, even a small increase in his strength multiplier was worth considering.
’As for the second talent, I’ll copy Ming Yue’s Superior Grade Endurance Talent.’
Mo Yuan already possessed a Standard Grade Endurance Talent but its effects were limited compared to a Superior Grade version.
Copying Superior Grade Endurance Talent would improve his endurance and help him maintain his strength during prolonged battles.
’Then I’ll go with these too.’
Mo Yuan nodded to himself.
"Sounds good."
Of course, he still had other tempting options.
Mu Bai possessed the Clear Heart Talent, which might prove useful. He could also copy the Treasure Finder Talent from the Golden Mouse.
However, there was no need to rush.
’I’ll copy those talents next time.’
Suddenly, Mo Yuan remembered something else.
’I still have two liters of Earth Heart Nectar for Mo Ran. I also have that mysterious fruit that can help her get new talent.’
He had originally planned to use the nectar to upgrade Mo Ran’s Cultivation Talent to Ultimate Grade.
However, Mo Ran had not even begun cultivating yet. There was no need to hurry. He could give them to her later when she was ready.
’There’s also the Jade Liquid. I should start using it. With the amount I collected, reaching the Peak Origin Lord Realm should be possible.’
Thinking of the resources waiting for him, Mo Yuan couldn’t help but smile.
’Time to head out and copy those talents.’
Mo Yuan glanced at the clock.
It was already nine in the morning and Mo Ran had left for the academy.
Without wasting any more time, he walked out of the house.
