================================================== ======
Temperament is a complicated stage depending on the individual's background.
I for exemple, receive support and supplies from Mom and Dad since childhood, even my birth was not common. My body is at the peak that a child can have before starting cultivation.
And to start the cultivation, the background also makes a big difference because there are three ways to start, they being;
By a temperament technique. By supplies like spiritual herbs, spiritual fruits and spiritual pills. And lastly, Hard Training.
These are the common means that someone uses to temperament up the body, but for me two of these methods are no longer effective.
My body has already been fully nourished, from my bones to my hair, I also spent a lot of time doing physical training routines and this helped to improve my muscles. Not only that, all the routines considered "mundane" like dancing, singing and playing musical instruments helped lot my body.
For female dances, great flexibility is required, something that is not easy to train; Singing takes a lot of breath, especially for a child; Each type of instrument requires a different technique, in some cases having physical strength is one of the minimum requirements.
Many of the things that at first glance can be considered useless for a cultivator, are efforts that many so-called cultivators have never gone through in their life.
I still shudder today because of the difficulty I went through in all these routines. Fortunately all of my work has not only allowed me to learn many things, but has also improved my physique a lot.
At this point the only relevant thing that can help to temper my body is a temperament technique, something Mom and Dad never gave me since it is useful only for those who have started to cultivate.
Two of my gifts 10 years are exactly temperament techniques, one of them was given by Mom and Dad, called the freezing winter temperament technique. While the other was given by Uncle Mao, called "water".
My gifts were handpicked because of my divine body. Hui'er also gained a temperament technique regarding his divine body.
I was thrilled that, I know it must not have been easy to get my techniques. The Clan Li is recognized by its fire cultivators, while Clan Shui is recognized by water cultivators. You should know that even though an element is close, they are not the same. Just because ice is made of water, it doesn't mean that Clan Shui has ice techniques.
Anyway, I have already read and memorized these two techniques, the necessary temperament is very simple.
The freezing winter asks someone to go through an intense cold seasoning his body from there, making each part of his body resistant to the cold and freezing his impurities.
"Water", on the other hand, asks the individual to suffer over water. The simplest method is to suffer on the waves of the sea, the most difficult is to flood below a certain limit and suffer under the pressure of the water, suffer from shortness of breath and suffer from the despair of the water. All of this will temper up your body, allowing water to clean up all the bad things inside and strengthening it.
These two techniques are really difficult, but they are bearable.
In a way I don't think I need to temper up my body, it is a divine body. Even I though it is fueled by things that people would kill every day since childhood, I never released anything harmful inside of me. Which basically says that I have no impurities.
Still, I want to temper my body, even if the gain is minimal, it is still a gain. Mosquito meat remains meat.
I would also like to see myself my the edge ... You can call me crazy, but my obsession with seeing myself on the edge made me decide to train both temperament techniques at the same time.
Combining them is not difficult, water as freezing as the cold is easy to find, in some cases water can be the coldest place, not taking it into account the solid state.
I remember that in my first life the coldest place in the world was Oymyakon in Russia, which reached an incredible -67.7 ° C, finding such a cold place in this continent known for its "light" is something almost impossible.
Now if we take into account a study that I remember, where liquid water can reach a temperature of -42.55 ° C without being in a solid state, this already makes my training possible.
Before you ask how I remembered that, it's all thanks to entering the Essence Realm and the various herbs, pills and fruits that I have been receiving since my childhood, thanks to that I can remember many things.
Anyway, leaving the water so cold is much simpler than finding a cold place, all of which makes me more and more determined to train the two technique at the same time.
...
I spent the next few days with Mom and Uncle Mao creating a training place suitable for me. Basically Mom and Uncle Mao made a hole so deep that I can barely see the bottom, I really can't imagine going to the bottom.
Mom and Uncle Mao then filled the walls with ice and covered the place completely, I can feel the cold on my skin. Mom even went so far as to invite a scholar to calculate the amount of ice needed to keep all the water at the specified temperature.
In fact, the only thing I understood in the whole conversation was that the scholar was not sure if this place can replicate the pressure that seawater can have at depths.
So to make sure we had to make this place look like the sea.
It took 1 week for my training place to be complete. The hole looks like a lake of freezing salt water ... It replicates the same method as the sea, but after spending a week breaking my head, I don't want to think about anything anymore.
The only thing I allow myself to think about is that every 10 meters of depth my body receives a pressure of 1 atm, which is approximately 1000 kg.
This training I will not be doing alone because it is considered dangerous, only Mom will stay here to help me if I encounter any problems.
By the Way, Hui'er is training with Dad since her divine body matches Clan Li's techniques a lot.
As soon as we finished the place, Mom played Uncle Mao as if he were a slave, I could only look at him with apology.
Inside my training site, I took off all my clothes and was naked. That's why Mom didn't want Uncle Mao to be here.
"Yueyue, are you sure you want to start this training?." Mom asked me gently as she hugged me.
"Yes Mom, I feel like I'm going to win a lot if I manage to complete this temper." Although a little embarrassed about the situation, I still allow her to hug me.
"Ahh ... Okay, I'm not going to stop you then, but I'll be by your side and if I see that you're in danger, I'll get you out at the same time, okay?" Mom asked me to which I replied with a bright smile.
"I trust you to do that, Mom." After she releases me, I feel the cold enter my body.
As I had nothing to cover myself and being naked, the cold was considerably uncomfortable. Adjusting my breathing, I walked way towards the artificial sea.
I put only one of my feet and the cold I feel was enough to shudder, but that was not enough to make me step back. Taking a deep breath I enter with half my body.
I spent a few minutes in this way to get used and then dive to the bottom. I feel that Mom is close to me, but I can't see her.
When I pass the 10 meter mark, extreme pressure has taken over my body, it is as if I am being crushed. But that was not my limit so I continue to dive, when I reached 30 meters deep my body went under such pressure that I thought I was going to die. If it weren't for my mom to put up a barrier and stop me from diving further, I would probably die after some time..
I felt such a heavy weight on my back that it was unbearable, the air in me was running out. If it weren't for me being nourished with so many things, having a divine body and so many trainings, I probably wouldn't be able to stand 30 second in this place.
Not only that, the cold that enters each pore in my body makes me hallucinate that I'm freezing, if it weren't for the pain I'm feeling, maybe I would lose consciousness.
Being in this situation I didn't waste any more time, I removed any thoughts that I may have in mind and I sit on the platform that Mom made.
The first thing I did was to start the first part of the water temperament technique, it allows me to control my breathing, allowing me to continue more time under the water.
The next action was to start the first part of the freezing winter temperament technique, the cold entered every part of my body until it reached my bones. The cold that I felt was so great that it reminded me of the first time that my divine body woke up.
But that didn't stop me, the next thing I did was to start the second part of the water temperament technique, each drop of water as cold as ice entered my pores and circulated through every part of my body, freezing it in the process.
Then I started the second part of the ice temperament technique, the ice that covered the outside parts of my body started to enter my internal organs and even my bones.
This whole process reminded me of when I woke up my body for the first time. Fortunately, I am stronger than before and is also i'm older, so I was able to bear it.
I started the third part of the water temperament technique and all the muscles in my body relaxed and accepted the water pressure totally.
The third part of the ice tempering technique started and the ice entered my muscles and skin.
The fourth part of the water technique is to allow water to wash everything in my body, allow the water it to flow as it pleases. Which is extremely scary, but I still did it.
Finally I started part fourth of the ice temper technique which allowed me to feel the ice completely in every part of my body, this increased my suffering by 2 times.
There is still part 5 of each of the techniques, but I will only start them when I reach the end.
Time passed while I continued to start these techniques every 10 minutes. Whenever I felt that I could no longer breathe, Mom sent oxygen to me in an unknown way.
I stayed under the water for so long that I completely lost track of time, when I no longer felt the pressure of the water I continued to descend into that aquatic abyss.
When I reached 40 meters I stopped again and continued the process.
When I reached 50 meters the pressure was so great that blood started to leak from me that it was soon frozen. A second later I felt out of the water, breathing in the air again was like a divine whitening.
Frozen water leaked from the sips of water that leaked out of my lips. My Naked body was completely white and some of it was frozen, my hair and eyelash turned a strange color. Even the nipple on my small growing chest was strange because of the cold. Besides, I was barely able to move while looking at my Mom.
"Get some rest before we start again." Mom looked at me and gently rubbed my face, she understood that I would not stop now.
I closed my eyes still lying down to continue my temper ...
