I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 120: Paladin Body Strengthening Technique

The stimulation of the electric current on the body lasted for half an hour. When the body was damaged to a certain extent and even the power of light could not repair it rapidly, Jiang Rong knew that Lin Yao’s body had reached its limits.

Upon seeing this, she quickly shot Lin Yao a glance. She then gingerly controlled the switch of the electric current on Lin Yao’s helmet, allowing a smaller current to enter Lin Yao’s mind and develop his brain.

The development this time was extremely dangerous and had a shorter duration, but the benefits were also greater.

As the current entered the brain, Lin Yao’s thinking speed accelerated immediately. In this state, his arithmetic ability increased greatly. Due to the accelerated thinking speed, everything in the world slowed down before his eyes.

However, Lin Yao didn’t perceive external objects this time. Instead, he focused on the electric current flowing in his body.

As if his brain had been lubricated with oil, Lin Yao memorized the flow of the current in his body, ingraining everything in his mind. Most critically, after he gained a deeper understanding of the electric current and adapted to it greatly, Lin Yao suddenly realized that he could control the electric current freely and effortlessly. Besides using the current on himself, he felt that he could release it outside his body.

Buzz, buzz.

With this thought in mind, Lin Yao directed the electric current galloping inside his body outside. As the current was transmitted out of his body, Lin Yao could vaguely sense a force field.

‘This is the magnetic field. I can already sense the magnetic field. Is this the prelude to the Super Electromagnetic Gun?’

This thought appeared in his mind, making Lin Yao excited.

However, Lin Yao was unable to contemplate this any longer. By the time he boosted his arithmetic ability, transmitted the electric current outside the body, and sensed the magnetic field, 11 seconds had passed.

After 11 seconds, Lin Yao’s mental strength had also reached its limit. His head ached, he was dizzy, and he felt as though he had been staying up for two weeks. This made him feel nauseous and uncomfortable. It was so painful that he felt like dying.

Fortunately, as soon as these feelings appeared, Senior Sister Jiang Rong switched off and stopped the current stimulation.

“11 seconds. Ah Yao, you persisted for 11 seconds this time.”

Jiang Rong was happy for Lin Yao, but Lin Yao had already slumped onto the ground and passed out.

‘Brain development is really hard to endure.’

This was Lin Yao’s last thought before he lost consciousness. Three hours later, he woke up on a bed, exposed to direct sunlight through the open windows.

“I… It really hurts.”

Although he had regained consciousness, he had not yet been relieved of his mental fatigue. Just a slight thought resulted in a splitting headache and pain that made Lin Yao feel like dying.

After he clutched his head for some time, this feeling of dizziness subsided. At that moment, Jiang Rong and Professor Li also came and stayed by Lin Yao’s side.

“Are you still able to hang on? Tomorrow, you…”

“I’ll continue tomorrow. I’ll be fine after resting for a day.”

Although it was difficult and painful, Lin Yao still decided to continue the in-depth development after taking a glance at his Tree of Heaven Punishment in the Sea of Consciousness.

He made this choice because the benefits of in-depth electric current development had exceeded his imagination.

[Iron Person (21%)]

[Heavenly Thunder Manipulation LV1 (90% )]

Lin Yao’s physical realm had increased by 7% again after one round of in-depth electric current development. His understanding of Heavenly Thunder had also increased by 20%, reaching 90%.

‘It increases by 7% each time. I’ll be able to advance to an intermediate martial artist after two more times. When that time comes, I’ll be able to blow up two vital energy seeds in one breath. After seven times, I’ll be able to become an advanced martial artist.’

Seven times would translate to seven days. He would be able to advance from a beginner martial artist to an advanced martial artist in just seven days. This was an extremely dramatic headway.

It was very difficult for ordinary people to advance level-wise. They needed to train and develop their bodies, as well as accumulate spirit energy. By relying on ordinary meat, they could practice military boxing at most 20 times a day. With this low-efficiency training method, they often had to spend a month to increase the Iron Person realm.

The same applied to vital energy training. Given the unclean spirit energy in the city, one would count their blessings if they could condense one vital energy seed a month.

By relying on ordinary meat and the unclean spirit energy in the city, most people did not have the resources to advance and become warlords in their entire lifetime.

In terms of the consumption of nutrient drinks, even if one were to consume 10 bottles a day, one would only be able to condense a vital energy seed after drinking 100 bottles in 10 days.

100 bottles would cost one million yuan, and ordinary people simply couldn’t afford such a terrifying rate of resource consumption.

It was precisely due to this fact that the country had developed Project Thunder God and used thunder electricity to replace spirit energy.

This plan was considered both a success and a failure, and thunder geniuses had benefited from it the most.

By relying on electricity, thunder geniuses could practice quickly even in the absence of spirit energy.

However, electric current development was painful and intolerable and could damage the body seriously, so it was already considered fairly good if martial artists with thunder talent could last for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes of development, they would need about 10 days to two weeks to recover from the physical injury. As a result of this limitation, although those who underwent electric current development could advance faster than ordinary people, their speed was not astonishing.

Nevertheless, Lin Yao was different.

The Armored Body Of Light had increased Lin Yao’s ability to withstand electricity tremendously. The light healing ability had also reduced Lin Yao’s resting time from 10 days to two weeks and then to just one day. Lin Yao could undergo this development again in one day, and the efficiency of each development was multiple times that of ordinary people.

These various advantageous factors had resulted in Lin Yao’s rapid advancement. Furthermore, his advancement would only cost sunlight and electricity. The former was abundant everywhere in the world, and the latter cost 50 cents per kilowatt/hour, making Lin Yao’s resource requirements very low.

‘Consuming the fewest resources and improving the fastest. This is the origin of a martial arts genius.’

What was the definition of a genius? It was someone who cultivated faster than ordinary people.

What defined the strongest genius in the city? Cultivating ten or even a hundred times faster than ordinary people.

‘It is precisely because of this talent that the city and the country value me that much and give me numerous subsidies.’

The resources that Lin Yao wanted were very rare, and the country could not possibly provide him with them. That would drive people away. In order to increase Lin Yao’s sense of belonging in China and ensure his safety, the country had granted Lin Yao great subsidies.

However, as he became stronger, Lin Yao also had some doubts in his heart.

‘The feelings of the current transmission out of my body and the magnetic field are gone.’

During the process of brain development, Lin Yao remembered clearly being able to project electric current out of his body and vaguely sense the magnetic field. However, when he woke up again, that feeling had disappeared.

‘What’s going on? Will Heavenly Thunder Manipulation regress? No. My thinking speed accelerated during brain development. My arithmetic ability improved tremendously in that state. Now, it seems that the stimulation of the brain affects not only the arithmetic ability but also the perception ability and mental strength. The improvement of mental strength and arithmetic ability will naturally enhance Heavenly Thunder Manipulation.’

Upon pondering it, Lin Yao came to his own conclusion.

‘After turning on the thinking speed acceleration, Heavenly Thunder Manipulation became LV2. After turning off the thinking speed acceleration, Heavenly Thunder Manipulation returned to its original level.’

Despite shaking his head and feeling speechless, Lin Yao wasn’t very disappointed. Although he had not advanced, he believed he would become more proficient in Heavenly Thunder Manipulation after being electrocuted a few more times. When that time came, the Heavenly Thunder Manipulation would naturally advance to LV2.

The process of being electrocuted was painful and intolerable. After the electric shock, Lin Yao’s body was severely damaged. However, after three hours of sleep under the sun’s rays, though Lin Yao could still feel a scorching sensation from the electrocution, he could already move freely. He could even move his arm, which had been fractured during the last battle.

Only his mental strength had not recovered. Three hours of sleep was a little short, and Lin Yao’s mind was still filled with fatigue.

‘I can’t meditate now, but I can train my body… I’ll just practice the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique.’

The Paladin Body Strengthening Technique, which originated from the West, was at the diamond level. A technique of this level had a set of unique and complicated training methods, including physical training, praying, light sentiment, holy seal training, combat skill training, and so on.

Among them, praying was the most important. Ordinary people who didn’t have the light talent could not practice the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique. He had no idea how the western curia did it. Through praying to the only god, they could enable ordinary people to practice the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique.

However, this kind of training also had its disadvantages. Those who practiced this technique would become fanatics, and once their beliefs changed, they would lose the power of the holy light.

Praying was the strongest fulcrum of the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique. After praying came physical training. Regardless of the method, the body was the foundation of everything. The Paladin Body Strengthening Technique naturally included body training as well. In order to improve the physical body, this training method had come up with a set of special armor and an ointment made of potions. When one trained after putting on the armor and smearing the ointment, one could maximize the body’s potential and improve the body rapidly.

Although Lin Yao had enough resources and money to buy the armor and ointment, he did not plan to practice this…

Yes, that was right. Lin Yao was not planning to practice the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique.

‘All techniques are the same, be it military boxing or the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique. The ultimate goal is always to increase physical strength. After all, the body is the foundation of everything. However, to me, these two techniques are not as fast as in-depth electric current development. In terms of physique, I’ll be able to advance rapidly as long as I undergo electric current development every day.’

The after-effect of Project Thunder God was nourishing Lin Yao. All the major countries in the world had intensively researched this project, which they had not yet abandoned completely. Their decades of research had developed thunder abilities and made them the strongest martial arts. Naturally, Lin Yao would not search far and wide for what lay close at hand. Therefore, he didn’t utilize other training methods.

The purpose of praying was to make the light talent appear in the body, and the purpose of physical training was to increase physical strength. Following these two methods were light sentiment and holy seal. These two were very easy to understand. The goal of the former was to enhance the understanding of light. The deeper one’s understanding of it was, the better one would be able to drive and control the power of light. The next method, holy seal, was the reason Lin Yao had chosen the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique.
