Chapter 53: 053 Top Quality (1/3)_1

Casio felt a bit awkward. After all, adding up his previous and present life, he was more than forty years old. Stripping naked in front of a woman was somewhat embarrassing. However, as he couldn’t defeat Lixia, he could only obediently strip off his clothes.

While Casio felt embarrassed, Lixia showed a calm face, she even nodded in approval and said, “Your muscular physique is quite good, it seems you have been working out well, keep it up. Now, get in.”

With a splash, Casio sank himself into the wooden barrel.

Immediately, the steaming hot water enveloped him. A strong wave of heat was ceaselessly seeping into his body through his skin.

Is this a bath? It seems like nothing has been added to the water…

Just as Casio was questioning himself, a surging heat wave erupted from his stomach, rushing up from his upright spine all the way to his head. His brain suddenly buzzed.

His vision became blurred. After a while, he regained consciousness, feeling as if there was an inner stream flowing throughout his body. It circulated rapidly along his bloodstream; each time it passed through the heart, it would be vigorously pumped, circulating around his body at a speed faster than the last round, repeating this cycle endlessly.

“Stabilize your qi and concentrate! Ninth form of the Elephant Soul Secret Technique!”

Suddenly a voice gave a roar.

Casio’s vision was blurry, his consciousness muddled, but he instinctively followed as he was told, assuming a special posture.

In doing so, the current flowing around his body seemed to accelerate even more. Casio’s body gradually began to heat up.

His throat felt more and more fiery, as if a thread of fire was climbing up from his stomach, straight into his oral cavity.

This state of affairs lasted for an unknown duration.

Until a specific moment.

When that ball of heat passed through his heart once more, another powerful pump occurred in the atrium. The resulting flow exploded in a splatter, instantaneously spreading to every corner of his body, dispersing into a sky full of stars.

Casio felt as if there were certain things within his body that were being nourished and wrapped, and certain other things were being forced out from the surface of his skin.

Dazed and confused, he opened his eyes again.

Inside the quiet room, two faint yellow rays of light penetrated through the window and illuminated the floor, a fresh breeze leisurely pumped in from the gap. Lixia, clad in a yellow combat suit, sat cross-legged, facing him.

Casio could distinctly sense that his five senses had seemingly become much more acute. If he concentrated, he even seemed capable of seeing the minute dust particles in the air. Moreover, he could hear every movement happening at the martial arts field located hundreds of meters away from the quiet room.

He instinctively stood up, and a splash of water fell from him.

Realizing that he was naked and that Teacher Lixia was sitting opposite him, Casio, feeling a bit awkward, sat back down.

“Is it over?”

Lixia, who was sitting cross-legged, opened her eyes.

“Since you’re alright, what are you still sitting for? Look at how dirty the water you soaked in is. Now go and take a shower in the washroom.”

Hearing this, Casio looked down at the barrel. The previously clear and hot water was now murky and cold. The water had turned a mixture of black and red, as if many impurities had dissolved in it. The surface even had a layer of mud-like grime on it.

It seemed like it would stink, except that he couldn’t smell it because he’d been there too long. After all, it seemed like Teacher Lixia had opened the window…

“Go ahead.” Lixia repeated again, it seemed like she knew that Casio was too shy to move while naked, so she closed her eyes.

Casio stepped out of the barrel, immediately grabbed the clothes in the corner, and ran to the washroom to take a cold shower.

During his shower, he glanced at the upper right corner of his vision.

‘Elephant Soul Secret Technique: Spike 68.2% (Total of three tiers)’ → ‘Elephant Soul Secret Technique: Spike 74.0% (Total of three tiers)’

‘Wind Elephant Fist: Wild Wind 34.2% (Total of three tiers)’ → ‘Wind Elephant Fist: Wild Wind 37.5% (Total of three tiers)’

The changes weren’t significant, but they were equivalent to several months of hard cultivation by Casio. After all, the increase in physical fitness and the level of Elephant Soul Secret Art were just additional effects of the Wind Elephant Pill. Its main function was to enhance a person’s potential and core bone.

This miraculous pill is probably quite rare in the Secret Martial Arts World. It’s definitely a stroke of luck that Casio managed to get one.

Facing the cold water, he clenched his fists. His strength hadn’t increased much, but it seemed… Casio suddenly threw a punch.

His arm quickly extended, and abruptly stopped in mid-air!

The water droplets on it flew off due to their inertia, hitting the wall with a splash, making quite a loud noise.

From the time he threw the punch, to when he withdrew it, there was no warning. His control over his body and strength had improved tremendously!

Suppressing his joy, Casio got dressed and returned to the quiet room, but Lixia was no longer there. A few minutes later, he saw her returning with a cleaned wooden barrel and gently placed it next to him.

“Come over, let me check your core bone.” Lixia smiled and beckoned him, seemingly more eager than Casio himself.

“Yes.” Casio immediately walked over.

Five minutes later, Casio, whose entire body had been examined, stood dumbfounded in place. Lixia was circling around him and nodding.

“Good, very good! I originally thought that after you took the Wind Elephant Pill, your potential would leap a level to reach upper and lower core bone, which would already be the limit. I didn’t expect you to exceed another small level, reaching upper, middle core bone! Well done!”

Lixia patted Casio’s shoulder firmly to encourage him.

Casio muttered in his heart: “The Wind Elephant Pill doesn’t seem to be dependent on the user’s subjective improvements, right? How much one improves depends entirely on luck.”

But it seems that his luck was not bad, as the effects seemed to be very good.

Li Wei always had good potential, with an upper-middle level. However, Casio in the real world was a bit inferior, barely reaching the middle-lower level.

If the effects of the Wind Elephant Pill could be taken back, perhaps his potential in the real world could be boosted to the upper level? With that thought, Casio had a question: did his cultivation of martial arts have a bottleneck? After all, when he returned to the real world, the effects were added directly.

Or did he not have a bottleneck, gaining as much power as the past had?

This was a question, but it was obviously good news that his potential could be enhanced, as he would need to spend quite a lot of time in the real world.

Coming back to his senses, Casio saw Lixia gazing at him with the look of a proud teacher: “Though your core bone has reached the upper level, you can’t slack off your daily training. Talent alone isn’t enough to achieve greatness, it must be accompanied by diligent study and hard work! So, from tomorrow onward, you don’t have to train like your junior brothers and sisters. Train with me directly, and I’ll pass on some techniques to you…”

“Yes.” Casio seemed to be only capable of saying this, he wasn’t good at expressing his feelings. But he would always remember those who were kind to him, and when he had the ability, he would repay them in kind.

“Alright, that will be all for today, you may leave now. Go home and have a good night’s sleep.” Lixia waved her hand, and Casio nodded before leaving.

“Oh right, prepare yourself in these next few days. The senior level of the sect might promote you to a position among the Core Disciples, and there will be a process to follow.”
