Chapter 32: The First Cultivation in Life

Annoyance and joy mingled together, and Lu Yuan could only end up complaining cheekily, "Contradiction is always the norm of life, am I really an old lecher?"

Moreover, Lu Yuan secretly thought about the "Eternal Body" ability, if it is effective for exercise and cultivation, would it also have an effect on learning?

The brain is also a part of the body, after all!

Knowledge like English and mathematics, if not practiced for a while, will gradually be forgotten.

With the "Eternal Body," will I not forget as much? At least not as quickly, wouldn't that be modest!

At this thought, Lu Yuan suddenly discovered that there were indeed many aspects of these auxiliary abilities that could be explored, he just hadn't thought of them for the moment.

"God, why do you only give auxiliary abilities, not a single offensive one?"

As for the Extraordinary Spark... it was obtained through his own effort and had nothing to do with a gift from God!

...

In the following days, for the sake of caution, except for eating and going to the bathroom, Lu Yuan had been lying down steadily.

That battle had greatly drained his essence and left his physical ability severely depleted.

This deficit was first felt in his inability to get enough sleep, and secondly, his appetite decreased, making him full after only a few bites.

The most important was the lack of desire and motivation.

Thankfully, with the help of the Extraordinary Spark's healing and the energy-rich Fire Lizard Meat, his body was rapidly recovering.

He did not find the leisure time too boring either—reading articles left behind by the Meida Civilization, particularly those about cultivation, basking in the sun, and drinking warm water was rather pleasant.

After all, it was his first illness since arriving at the Pangu Continent, which could not be taken lightly.

It wasn't until the seventh day that Lu Yuan could no longer lie down.

"Damn your influenza!"

"Today, I officially begin cultivation!"

Lu Yuan closed his eyes, concentrated his spirit, and began his first session of cultivation in life.

Gradually, within his mind, he saw a dim red flame, tiny and fragile.

After days of healing, the tiny spark had shown no growth, yet this thumb-sized thing was the origin of personal power.

The specific function of the Extraordinary Spark was simple: to continuously strengthen the three attributes of "Shape, Qi, and Spirit."

If the Spark was strong enough, it could also release Spiritual Energy outward and evolve various attack techniques.

"This is the first ability of civilization"—at least that's what the Meida Civilization believed.

The Extraordinary Spark might not be the strongest.

There indeed existed cultivation abilities stronger than the Extraordinary Spark in the world, along with all sorts of strange and incomprehensible abilities.

But for a civilization, it was the most meaningful.

Because it could be spread and popularized among the people.

Regarding this claim, Lu Yuan couldn't evaluate—since the 18th branch of human civilization had only one person, it didn't matter whether it could be spread or not.

And he thought the other five abilities were also awesome.

If he had to choose one out of the six,

Of course, it would be...

I want them all!

"Hehe..." Lu Yuan still felt some happiness, how could other civilizations possibly stack up to a Superman like this?

Thinking this way, the heavens didn't seem so terrible to him, for he had landed right in the center of a civilization's ruins, with plenty of trash to pick up.

He was also granted many milestone rewards.

In the forest came the cries of wild animals and the shrill chirping of insects, in this savage world, to have his own little paradise was indeed a decent outcome.

"God, I'm in a good mood today, I'll be your follower."

Lu Yuan happily took out the fiery red crystal stone.

In his mind, the Spark flickered slightly, sensing the overwhelming Spiritual Energy contained within the crystal stone.

It was like a soundless, tasteless stream of air, flowing around Lu Yuan.

The small red flame suddenly grew larger, as if with the voracity of a whale, devouring this energy.

This was simply akin to a top-grade Spirit Stone from an immortal cultivation novel!

But it must be said that this fiery red crystal stone was still scarce on the Pangu Continent, not something that could be popularized among all beings…

"How would humans distribute this…"

The sensation of cultivation was somewhat refreshing. He closed his eyes, fell into a meditation state, and felt the little flame continuously pulsating.

Clarity and confusion entangled together, turning into chaos, with only a clear red light hanging in the high sky, visibly growing at a palpable rate.

Of course, this luxurious comfort was due to the fiery red Spirit Crystal.

Without Spirit Crystals, one could only cultivate slowly by themselves, and it might not even be possible for the Spark to grow a bit even after a year of cultivation.

To accelerate the speed of cultivation, the Meida Civilization developed some cultivation techniques related to the "Extraordinary Spark."

For instance, while meditating, drawing a lotus pattern with a small flame, this was called the "Lotus Visualization Method."

There was also visualizing Extraordinary Creatures, namely the Cannibal Flower image... That's right, before the Meida Civilization was extinct, the Cannibal Flower had already become the most powerful Extraordinary Creature on this land, surviving until the Ninth Epoch.

There were also visualizations of the Pisces amulet, Taiji diagrams, and so on...

But the energy from the fiery red crystal stone far surpassed all kinds of cultivation techniques, easily overcoming them with brute force and making Lu Yuan's Spark grow rapidly!

This was akin to the gap between "Bead Mental Calculation" and "computers."

Without computers, Bead Mental Calculation was a great choice to significantly accelerate calculation speeds, but once there were computers... come on, let you calculate for an hour first, then I'll just type away on the keyboard.

"However, for humans, these techniques are indeed very valuable... Ah, why am I bothered about this?"

After about two hours of cultivation, he felt satiated deep within himself.

Lu Yuan stopped devouring the energy from the crystal stone.

He checked his attributes.

[Shape: 5.5 increased to 5.6]

[Qi: 4.6 increased to 4.7]

[Spirit: 5.2 increased to 5.3]

All Attributes had increased by 0.1, which was the result of just one session of cultivation!!

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up with joy as he looked at the fiery red Spirit Crystal; its energy was still abundant, enough to support his cultivation for a long, long time.

He felt his even stronger physique again; a 0.1 change was hard to perceive in a short period, but he felt somewhat hungry.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "An ability to cultivate is indeed awesome."

Today reached Great Perfection, and the sun once again moved westward.

"What day is it today... 105 days... or 106 days?" Lu Yuan scratched two marks on the ground.

The ground was covered with "correct correct correct correct correct correct correct..."

Over three months, the concept of time slowly became blurred.

Lu Yuan frowned, realizing that if he didn't fall ill or wander around aimlessly, he probably wouldn't die so easily, but how to fight against the length of time? One day, the number of "corrects" would densely cover the ground, too numerous to count.

For him, as a human, if he even forgot his age, that would be rather sad.

After much thought, solutions like hourglasses were unreliable.

He thought of that metal sphere.

"It looks like I'll need to move that thing over here sooner rather than later... Only part of that gadget is damaged, the timer can still be used."
