About thirty years ago, James entered the realm of boxing energy for the second time, repelling the pollution of the blood race, and perfectly controlling the strength of the current body. Judging from his own martial arts practice system, the next step is the so-called "Bao Dan" level. At this point, James is not in a hurry.

While concentrating on handling and building the Howlett family's industrial empire, he completed the manufacture and use of gasoline internal combustion engines more than ten years ahead of schedule. Driven by this technology, he became the world's number one industrial oligarch In the era when the French capital had not yet appeared, the entire Western industrial capital was overwhelmed for a while.

James had selected several capital giants in Europe and the United States early on, bound them to his own chariot, and did not try to force the entire capitalist world by relying solely on his own strength. As for the secret methods, he is even more comfortable Not afraid.

   On the other hand, he devoted himself to studying the history and culture of many ancient nations, and traveled around, studying in various European academies for many years, re-studying his own practice, looking for a training model that is more suitable for mutants or other extraordinary races.

For several years, he has consciously collected human mutant individuals through the influence of the Howlett family and his own travel process. Most of them are only congenital or acquired physical deformities, and very few have signs similar to mutants, but their abilities are very low. , such as a flexible long tongue, mildly corrosive body fluids, etc.

  Until meeting Asazo, this adopted child became his best teaching experiment subject, and the progress was quite smooth.

  Based on his own mutant ability compared with Asazor, he found that there are two routes for mutants to improve their abilities and their own body. For example, the power of Wolverine or Saber-toothed Tiger is itself a melee-type ability. Practicing boxing can not only improve the control of mutant abilities, but also greatly enhance the ability to destroy and kill.

As for Asazzo or other people with various magical and treacherous mutant abilities, the essence of their power is the ability itself, not the physical destructive power of the body. If this type of mutant wants to improve control over their own abilities, they do not necessarily need to Practicing boxing requires pure practice to control one's own body, consciousness, and spirit.

  So James himself reached a certain level of physical cultivation, turned over the plate to see through the essence from a strategic point of view, and re-studied a set of practice methods that specialize in his own control.

  It combines boxing, meditation, breathing, yoga chakra and other physical and spiritual practices. It is similar to the process of martial arts from bright energy to energy transformation, which is divided into three stages. But self-cultivation does not cultivate strength, the purpose is to start from controlling the body of the self, so as to further control the spiritual consciousness and emotions, and improve the awareness and control of the self-mutating ability.

  Asazzo's practice for many years is almost the same as James' own expectations for this set of practice methods.

After practicing to the first stage, the mutant ability will no longer be easily out of control. In the second stage, you can freely grasp the power and maturely use your own mutant ability. In the third stage, you should be able to develop and perfectly use the current self-mutated superpower to the greatest extent. All of them, and may even exceed the current capability limit to a certain extent.

  Asazo has reached the second level, and has sophisticated and mature control over the teleportation ability in terms of frequency, distance, accuracy, and the quality of teleportation. It's not like the practice at the beginning when I was a child, the teleportation position can only be estimated roughly.

  He has not yet reached the third stage, so James does not have a very objective and accurate sample reference. Those years of studying in Europe have given him more or less academic research thinking.

  Under James' thinking system of cultivating all mutant abilities, these three stages are only the first level. As for the next level, he needs to complete today's last level before he can start exploring.

  According to the Taoist world outlook and outlook on life, martial arts practice at this stage is called "Bao Dan". In fact, at this stage, when the human body has achieved perfect control of the body's energy and blood, it compresses and condenses the so-called strength, blood, and essence of the whole body at one point, and stimulates the body to further improve through this point, just like The secondary development is normal, completely reborn.

   But the question is, where is this so-called point.

  It varies from person to person, from practice method to method, and even from time to place. So James doesn't know where he is. After all, he has never reached this level in his previous life, and his teacher and fellow students have never been a master of this level.

   Therefore, he can only experiment a little bit based on his knowledge of martial arts practice and understanding of the human body.

For others, this is purely a suicide behavior that uses one's own body as a bet to gain a one-ten-thousandth probability of survival, but for James, it is extremely easy, which also allows him to accumulate extremely huge damage to the human body. experience of.

   Every time the qi and blood condense wrongly, his viscera will quickly fail and die, and there are various situations. And his self-healing ability will be restored in an instant.

  So for many years, James sat cross-legged every day like a daily exercise, concentrated his energy, then vomited blood, pierced his intestines, and tried another point without any damage after a while.

  He tried almost all acupuncture points, Qimai nodes, internal organs, bones, blood vessels and other body tissue parts. Every failure will record how the body responds to this position, and what beneficial help may appear from correct and cautious stimulation.

  One day these experiences and studies will become the treasures of human physical evolution and research and exploration.

   After so many years of practice experiments, he certainly succeeded, but when James found the correct condensing position for the first time, he stopped after a second thought and did not continue to practice.

   "Who said that the human body can only form a 'golden pill'?"

  With such doubts, James decided to continue his experiment. He planned to practice every part of the body to see if a person has a second, third or even more Baodan nodes.

  This is why it took more than ten years for James to finally decide to enter this new realm today.

Asazuo looked at his father for a moment, and after a moment of his deathly silence, the skeletal muscles of his body began to move regularly, starting from his cervical spine all the way down to the caudal vertebra, nine eggs Big and small, crimson and faintly bouncing dots scattered along James' spine.

  His body shook more and more violently, the bones under the skin creaked, the flesh began to crack and fall off, and the new skin grew rapidly. From time to time, some blood clots and cloudy liquid vomited out of his mouth, and the teeth fell off and grew again. The whole picture is like peeling the bones of a person layer by layer, and then watching him grow again, it is simply creepy.

  The mutant ability of rapid self-healing made this process of rebirth, which would have lasted more than a hundred days, complete quickly in a very short period of time.

  James began to shrink in size, even when he was sitting cross-legged, his tall and swollen body began to shrink a little bit, and this process was accompanied by the sound of toothache in his bones.

   After a while, all the bones and flesh, and the drastic changes are over.

James stood up. His skin was as delicate as jade, and there seemed to be no pores. His hair, beard and body hair had fallen off again. If you carefully observed each new strand of hair, you would find that it was four times thicker than a normal strand of hair. five times, while body hair, like the pores of the skin, disappears without a trace.

His face is as majestic as a sculpture, yet delicate and somewhat monstrous. His skeleton has become extremely thick and broad, but his body no longer has muscle bulges. The texture of the skin and flesh is like a brand-new tissue structure, which is similar to the distribution of ordinary human muscles. The lines are somewhat different but full of a strange sense of power.

  James looked at the various body tissues and filth that fell off from the surrounding body, glanced at Asazo, who was mentally stimulated and unlovable, and said briskly.

   "Son, dad is handsome."
