Chapter 62 - Irascible Zombie
There are thousands of different cultivation techniques that Martialists can train in. If a Martialist wants to promote their rank, they need to absorb energy crystals to enhance their physiques and to also cultivate their Inner Energy to the same level before they can promote. The Martialists that Yang Tian encountered did not cultivate Inner Energy, and could only be considered as Pseudo Martialists as they could not be compared to the real deal.
Yang Tian was acquainted with a power Martialist in his previous life, the latter’s development could be said to be awe-inspiring and unbelievable.
When that Martialist reached Rank 2, he chose to destroy his cultivation and train from the beginning. When he reached Rank 3, he repeated and destroyed his Inner Energy again. However, he did not reset his physique along with his cultivation. Every time he restarted his cultivation, his training speed was also several times faster than before. When that Martialist reached Epic Rank and was about to destroy his cultivation again, he lacked the determination and did not proceed.
Having attained such a high level, the Martialist was unable to guarantee that he would successfully reach Legendary Rank if he repeated the cycle. However, he had once told Yang Tian this:
“If I reset my physique along with my cultivation, becoming Legendary Rank will only be a matter of time.”
However, who will have the resolve to do that in the Post-Apocalyptic World? Becoming an ordinary person again will mean that they will become even weaker than the lowest rank insect, the threat of death will loom over them at every moment.
Yang Tian’s Purple Sun Divine Art would only allow him to reach up to a Rank 2 Martialist, but to those Pseudo Martialists, the Purple Sun Divine Art was still a precious cultivation technique.
Like the Spear Martialist who was with Hu Jun, he was a Pseudo Martialist. He only possessed the physique of a Martialist of that rank, but without the support of a cultivation technique, he was unable to display the true might of a Martialist.
The Apocalypse had caused Earth to descend into chaos; for people who wanted to find a place of peace, the only likely places possible would be the holy lands of martial art such as Shaolin Temple or Wudang, etc.
Especially those elders who were already cultivating since the Civilized Age, it was not an exaggeration to use the term ‘Achieving heaven in a single bound’ to describe those individuals.
However, these people would only reveal themselves one year later and what Yang Tian did not understand was why these group of people chose to appear only after a year into the Post-Apocalyptic Era.
“Those bald donkeys are also up to no good.”
When Yang Tian became the Number One Wanted Man of the Celestial Empire in his previous life, those bald donkeys from Shaolin Temple had surrounded and attacked him countless times. However, the Wudang Sect had often assisted Yang Tian as well.
“Big Brother, you are awake.”
When Yang Tian opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Xiao looking at him.
