Injuries

Yang Tian…He was sure that he had died. He remembered his ending moments… And after that, he experienced an unfathomable pain. It was something that was felt by his soul directly. He felt as if something was splitting it apart into tiny pieces. Or maybe burning his soul to a crisp.

Yet… Yang Tian saw a new set of memories. It was like he was reliving life from someone else's point of view. From what he found out… These were 900 years worth of memories of Heavenly Wolf Star God, Xing Su.

A lot of knowledge was imprinted directly on his soul…

Yang Tian tried to stand up, and at that moment, he experienced immense pain. Pain great enough to make him feel like he was being tortured by someone. He felt as if all his bones had been broken. His nerves cut-off and a lot of his blood flowed out of his body.

He could hardly open his eyes…

He saw a wooden ceiling with black lines intersecting each other had right angles, creating a lot of square boxes.

Despite the pain in his body, Yang Tian tried to move his head and look around. Even though he was experiencing a lot of pain, it wasn't something that could be compared to the pain felt by his soul.

At that moment, an old man entered the room where Yang Tian was placed. He looked quite startled upon seeing that he had opened his eyes and was trying to move.

"Don't move! Your body isn't in good shape… If you move your body right now, you will displace some of your broken bones," The old man said while immediately sitting next to Yang Tian.

Those words did make Yang Tian stop trying to move no matter how uncomfortable he was. He merely looked at the old man from the corner of his eyes and seemed to be asking for his identity.

The old man noticed it and immediately started to talk, "My grandson found you while he was playing with his friends. He mentioned that you suddenly fell from the air with a lot of blood around your body. He brought you to me since I am a doctor. You ought to thank him for this later."

Yang Tian lightly nodded as he continued to stare at the old man with a neutral look.

"I am still surprised, though. I didn't think you would survive even after such heavy injuries. You shouldn't try to move for at least 3 or so months. I don't possess any spiritual medicine or herb which would allow you to recover quickly so you can only let time to heal your body." The old man said with a decisive tone. He was worried that this youth would waste all his efforts of trying to save him.

He then saw Yang Tian moving his mouth, a frown appeared on the old man's face as he wanted to ask him to not say anything.

"…Where…am…I…?" He softly asked the old man, very curious about his current location.

His question confused the old man, who raised his brow and muttered, "Did you lose your memories as well?" After a few seconds, he answered, "This is the Floating Cloud City in the Profound Sky Continent, young man!"

Hearing these words, Yang Tian closed his eyes 'Floating Cloud City…Profound Sky Continent…I see… That explains a lot…'

Since he had read a lot of light novels and web novels, he had naturally read the plot of Against the Gods.

'So… I have reincarnated in Heavenly Wolf Star God Xisu's body… That was probably his voice I heard earlier…Moreover, those were Xing Su's memories. I guess I should take more time to study then… With my body in this condition, it's not like I can do anything else.'

After having thought in this manner, he spent the next two to three days to thoroughly go through the memories.

He received a lot of information, whether it was cultivation techniques, divine techniques, way to control the Profound Energy and Divine Energy… And even some demonic techniques that Xisu had found in a tomb of a True God from the past but never cultivated those techniques. One reason was that he possessed the Heavenly Wolf Star God's power which was utterly incompatible with the Devil Energy… Another reason was that he really didn't want to cultivate those evil techniques…

But Yang Tian was different. He found multiple ways to increase his strength by using these cultivation techniques.

He started thinking profoundly 'From what the old man has told me in these days… Xiao Che and Xia Qingyue will marry after 6 months. This means that if nothing goes wrong… I have 6 months until Yun Che arrives with the Sky Poison Pearl.'

'However, firstly, I need to repair my body first. Unfortunately, even though Xisu knew several medical techniques, not even one of them can be utilised to repair this body. I guess I can only depend on 'that' cultivation art…'

The cultivation art he mentioned was naturally none other than 'Great Way of the Buddha'.

The inheritance left behind by the Rage God, the one who possessed the most tyrannical body amongst the True Gods…

This was the only cultivation technique which possessed the might to recover his body in less than a month…

He wanted to let out a sigh as he thought 'The heavenly energy absorbed by Xisu which had let him reach the 6th Stage of 'Great Way of the Buddha' had leaked out because of the destruction of his soul…If I had the 6th Stage of 'Great Way of the Buddha', I would probably only need a day or two to recover all injuries of my body…'

'It's a good thing that even though 95% of the heavenly energy had leaked out of the body, I am still at the 1st Stage of 'Great Way of the Buddha' since Xisu had merged his last trace of the soul with me. If not… I would have to wait until I acquired the profound veins of the Evil God before starting to cultivate this cultivation art. But since I know how to cultivate the art due to Xisu's memories… This shouldn't be any more dangerous to me…'
