2 Houtian Realm

Wu yu finally reached the tree after what felt like years of his lifespan..

Curling up into a warm and cozy position wu yu started thinking.

"To reach the houtian realm I can't just start by absorbing Qi or no matter how many long years I would still reap nothing, I have to build a strong foundation.."

Humans and even beasts had to start off equally by going through body refinement after crossing the houtian rank they would be known as true cultivators but it was only the first step...

"Hmmm... the primordial dragon cultivation technique is more suited for me, using the heavenly Qi even if I can't absorb it into my unopened dantian, I can still use it to temper my body to the point where I can blast holes into mountains with a single....ummm tail?"

Enough playing around!!

To reach the houtian rank with the primordial dragon cultivation was relatively easy, all he had to do was torture his body and rebuild a new and better one.

....

Pow!!!

The sound was light but if close enough it could be heard clearly, a small snake was continuously and fiercely throwing its body with all its might at a wooden tree...

Pow!!!

Pow!!!

Even after hitting the tree for so long it only had a small dent in it...

Wu yu's body was bloody but if one looked closely all his scales seemed to be moving and even growing as muscle was built behind them...

"It won't be long"

Wu yu continued his arduous and harsh training, with his mental power he grit his teethe through the pain, even as a previous immortal he was in a new and weak body so it would hurt no matter what...

...

Day by day week by week wu yu would continuously smash into trees, swim deeply into lakes or curled up onto a rock under a waterfall...

All of this harsh training was preparing him to break through his mortal shackles...

After so many days wu yu looked twice as big as he was before and was around the size of half the arm length of a grown man...

....

Boom!!!!

A large and thick tree fell down after being continuously smashed apart by wu yu's scaly reptile body...

Boom!!!

At the same time something in wu yu's serpentine body shattered..

He finally reached the houtian realm...

After breaking through his body started getting larger until it was twice the same size again, this time he was as thick as a grown muscular males arm and was as long as one too if not longer....

"Hahahaha I finally reached this stupid lowly realm"

Wu yu laughed crazily and danced around (moving with his body)..

"Still this isn't enough, I have to complete the houtian body refinement and become a xiantian only then can I truly start absorbing Qi and even posssibly get a human form., now that I think abt it that old monkey never had a human form, even if he did he would still look like a hairy monkey bwahahah..."

Hiss...

Hisssss...

"I can't forget abt my combat strength, maybe it's time to fight that beast that nearly killed me and dared to bully this emperor... ahem..!!"

Wu yu excitedly slithered across the grass into a certain direction...
