Approaching limit of potential

The Five Animal Boxing was more complicated than the basic Sword technique because of movements from five different beasts incorporated into the technique, and even more so now that he had to visualize it.

When it came to the basic sword technique, he only practiced chopping, sweeping, and stabbing.

The technique seemed more or less crude, but the effect at the beginning was indeed good for learning to control his strength, which was also the same reason he did not want to give it up.

Once he made some progress, perhaps he could gain more benefits too.

The most important is the fact that he might even be able to undergo more transformations, and the feedback on his body could only be imagined.

The Basic Sword technique allowed him to strengthen his bloodline, and this was not the same as the Five Animal Boxing that tempered his body.

He did not bother to waste his time practicing it because he could already feel that it was almost impossible for him to make progress in such a short period. At the same time, he could feel that the effects of the radioactive energy in this place seemed to be slowly becoming useless to him.

The blood in his body had also changed eight times, he could already feel that in a few days perhaps the ninth transformation would take place and he would have to leave this place.

The place would have already lost any value to him, and this was something he had not predicted, but it was not that hard to accept. He had also felt the same sensation when he was practicing by consuming ginseng before.

Just like that, he cleared his mind and started to practice and when the evening arrived, he had added more than 40 proficiency points on the Five Animal boxing. In the rest of the night, he switched to the clone and he had done the same for the past half month.

The size of the clone was already close to three meters. This was a massive improvement and at the same time, the massive amount of energy he had consumed in this period allowed the evolution indicator to show that more than 2/3 had been completed.

It would only take about a week for the clone to have the qualifications for another evolution. The clone had indeed become massive, but that did not make it the strongest in the depths of the sea.

It could still see massive creatures twice its size, and thus it had to hide when such creatures appeared in its line of sight for the moment. It was patient, after all the sea had creatures that reached close to 20 meters.

The sharks, for instance, were his target, after all, he had read information about them, but when he saw some of them he realized it was not wise to get entangled with them yet.

The massive bodies were indeed a problem, and he had been controlling the clone to walk deeper into the sea, as such he was able to see numerous creatures.

They were already enough to meet his current requirements. At the same time, he was looking for the unique materials that seemed to have allowed him to obtain attributes but nothing was obtained so far.

But still, he did not seem to have plans to give up, once he had consumed the massive creatures he would allow the clone to venture deep into the sea, perhaps he would be able to find something interesting.

He was not in a hurried thought, at the moment he had moved around and marked some spots that could be used to hide in case he caught himself in some tough situation.

It took him an entire night hunting in the deep sea, but he did not seem to care much about his safety.

The reason for it was pretty much simple, in the place he was located, no creature dared to go in.

At this moment he was indeed much more comfortable with the place to dare let his body without protection, but he still had some ability to sense danger. Not all of his consciousness was absent, after all, he was not that arrogant.

With the passage of the nigh the clone hunted a lot of creatures and consumed them, and the moment it reached the stomach, it was converted into energy.

His physique did not just reach the current state, because of the practice of the Five Animal Boxing, but rather the feedback from the clone when it improved its strength.

At this moment, the main body had some savage aura about it, and he seemed to have not realized this at all, but it seemed to spread an immense sense of oppression all around, and perhaps from this even if any creature were to approach they would escape.

The reason for the savage aura being contained during the day was because it was restrained by his body practicing the Five Animal Boxing. The exercise in itself was miraculous, or perhaps it had mutated, but who would ever know? The effect in the past days was also incredible as it allowed him to repair injuries on his body.

This fast repair of muscles probably was also the reason he was able to practice the technique longer allowing him to almost reach the limit of proficiency. Had he practiced even at night, perhaps he would have already managed to undergo the last transformation.

He seemed to be not in a hurry though, as though he wanted the clone to evolve again before he tried to break through in the Five Animal boxing. He had already realized that the way the exercises were ranked was hard to predict.

His understanding seemed to have him assume that the next stage was perfection. The practice of the exercise after all had been put into three categories, form, spirit, and intention.

He had already practiced form in the entry state and the proficiency stage he seemed to be required to touch on both form and spirit.

When it came to perfection, he assumed it would probably concern spirit and intention.

The reason his speed of practice was increasing was also due to his strong spirit. He had a feeling that the spirit had something to do with intention, but he had yet to dwell properly on spirit.

Once he had completely dealt with the issue of the spirit, he could think about other things.

He was just trying to visualize the moves, yet the speed of practice was so fast, perhaps it was also the way to enter perfection.

For the reason he was willing to let the clone evolve first, it was actually simple, the feedback to the body would be immense, and when he broke through, the transformation would be massive.
