Bottleneck

After greeting my new life and enjoying it yesterday, morning came and I decided today to start my journey on regaining my power in my past life through training, even though I didn't obtain anything from my reincarnation, I still have my knowledge and power in my past life.

I first wash my face, tidy up my room, and eat my breakfast before going deeper into the cave, to the blue forest

I used short-burst teleportation throughout the cave and traveled almost 500,000 km of distance before reaching the middle part of the cave, It took 2 hours of constant short-distance teleportation to reach my destination.

I manage to pull that up thanks to my boundless mana residing within me, even though I can only release and use a small fraction of my mana reserves I can still use this as fuel in the constant casting of low-class spells of my clan, such as short distance teleportation, fireball, water ball, blink, power boost, heal, and more.

Reaching the blue forest, the first thing that I saw was a vast cave full of giant glowing trees and some bodies of water scattered around the place, The gentle blue light coming from the giant tree illuminated the dark cave, creating a fantastic view that you can only see in your dreams.

Seeing the beauty of Blue Forest, I can't help but smile smugly and say, "I have good taste in picking up this place as my own."

After a few minutes of admiring the beauty of the Blue Forest, I decided to start my training and roam around the surroundings to find a suitable place for my training.

An hour passed and I found the place, The place that I found was a waterfall with a huge rock below it, suitable for meditation. Above the waterfall, you can see a large Blue Tree that releases a blue gentle light that illuminates the surroundings.

The lake that was connected to the waterfall was vast, deep, and full of life, in this lake there were many fish of different shapes and sizes swimming around the lake without any fear.

This is my first time finding this waterfall here, In my memory, I did not explore these parts, after all this Blue Forest was very vast plus the entire cave was even larger, so most parts are still unexplored, according to my present memory, I don't have any way in traveling great distances that spans millions of km in a blink of an eye, Because of this I only rely on my running speed that reaches 100km/hr. cause of lack of speed I can only explore a small part of the cave, however, that is in the past, thanks to my past life memories, I obtain many ways to explore this place with ease.

While thinking about those things, I approached the lake and looked at the fish and even tried to feed them, after that, I went to the rock located just below the waterfall.

I went under the waterfall and allowed the powerful pressure caused by the falling water to befall my body.

After feeling the power of the waterfall for a while, I sat cross-leg and started meditating.

I close my eyes and feel my body down to its core.

So my body has the strength to carry 10 tons, a speed that reaches 100km/hr., and a defense that can defend against an explosion.

My Heroic Aura, Mana, and Blood Lust amount and capacity didn't even change, in fact, it even doubled, but unluckily I can only bring out a small fraction right now, If I push and liberate my true power, my human body that didn't reach immortality right now can't handle it and I might die because of it.

With this result, the training goal would be to strengthen my body.

After concluding, John emptied his mind and then made his body relax and free his body from mortal desires.

Minutes passed then hours, hours turned day, and the day turned into a month, he continued to meditate to open the limitations of being a mortal so that he could obtain an Immortal Body.

At the end of the month, he finally broke all the limitations of a mortal and became immortal, Reaching this point John's eyes which were closed for a month finally opened again.

"I finally broke out a became immortal, Next I will train my body, in no time I will reach my peak again."

Without any delay, John started strengthening his body, he used his mana to cast gravity magic on himself and perform some physical exercises.

In his estimation, he will reach his peak power in his past life in 4 years of intense training, With this in mind he continues to train non-stop and only stops for his daily needs such as eating, sleeping, and bathing.

Just like that, days became weeks weeks became a month, and months became years. Time flies in the blink of an eye and it is already 4 years passed, but until now he still training.

Throughout these years, in the first week of his training, John realized there was something wrong with his body and that his body was very slow to evolve, and breakthrough its limitation.

When he noticed this, John arrived at one answer, and that answer was that he possessed another power that still sleeping in his inner soul waiting to be awakened, he concluded that this power was the power that he obtained through his reincarnation.

Because of this slumbering power, his progress in his train became slow, and then when three and a half years of training had passed, a bottleneck was reached holding his progress, he tried to break this bottleneck and then stopped if this was unsuccessful.

He trained and trained until four years came and he still didn't break the bottleneck.

"It's been four years and I still can't break through this bottleneck, there is one way to break this and that is awakening my slumbering power."

To reach greater heights of their power, an Alver clan member needed to awaken all of their hidden power before they could advance in their next power, Their Heroic Aura will make the bottleneck to hold their progress, and they will need to awake their hidden power to remove it, right now John experiencing the same thing.

John stopped his training and then sat cross-legged closed his eyes and started to asses his progress.

After a few minutes, he opened his eyes again.

"I only reached the middle stage of a Level 1 Existence."

middle stage Level 1 Existence has the power to destroy a village with a full power strike.

(Author note: Each level of Existence has four stages, early, middle, final, and peak).

John sighed in frustration, In his past life his peak power could destroy multiple Omniverse with just a single move, but now that power can't be used and he can only destroy a village with his full power.

John sighed again and said, "Can't be helped then, I need to awaken the hidden power that I obtained before continuing my training."

John stretches his body and then teleports toward his wooden house.

He can now teleport long distance, This teleportation technique doesn't need a large amount of Mana to operate and only need perfect control of magic along with precise calculation to use it, even normal people with a small mana can use this magic continuously as long they meets those two requirements, the Perfect Mana Control and Precise Calculation. Right now this teleportation technique named Space Shift was John's main core of fighting for the time being until he managed to reach his former peak of his strength).

With that, his 4 years of training ended.
