Chapter 7, Transformation

How is it that you still do not believe me? An old man who has lived for several hundred years would not lie to someone as young as you, so rest assured

The large coffin is completely sealed, and at this moment, it is already filled with radiance. If Yi Shuihan were to open his eyes now, he would undoubtedly be blinded by the light. The increasingly dense brightness around him seems to take on a tangible form within the liquid, and more and more of it wraps around Yi Shuihan's body. The light bands appear to be weaving a large cocoon around him. As the light cocoon begins to envelop his face, his brows furrow tightly, and his teeth clench, as if he is enduring immense pain. More and more of it wraps around Yi Shuihan's body, the light bands weaving a large cocoon around him. As the light cocoon is about to cover his face, his brows furrow tightly, and his teeth clench, as if he is enduring immense pain.

After five minutes, Yi Shuihan felt an indescribable drowsiness, and his eyelids obediently closed together, leading him into a dream.

Although Old Man Mu is willing to nurture talent, he has no intention of taking on a disciple. Yi Shuihan's actions startled him; seeing his sincere demeanor, Old Man Mu sighed lightly and said: "You and I are fated to be stuck together, but I have grown accustomed to solitude and do not plan to take on a disciple. To be frank, my status is not low; the head of the Mu family in the Xinghui Dynasty of the Alliance is actually my junior. Just among my grandchildren, there are several hundred, and if we count the great-grandchildren, there are probably several thousand. The family is too large, and if I were to take you as a disciple, those juniors would surely accuse me of favoritism. Therefore, we cannot establish such a relationship. However, since we are fated to meet, I will impart as much of my knowledge and skills to you as possible. You can call me 'Grandpa' and it won't be a loss for you. Even if it's just a formality of recognizing a god-grandfather, what do you think?"

After approximately two minutes, the light cocoon successfully enveloped the head of Yi Shuihan within the large coffin, and at the same time, his eyebrows relaxed, plunging him back into a deep state of sleep

A series of information listed: Species: Human. Physical Strength: 534. Mental Power: 8,547. Recovery Ability: 100%. Metabolism: Vigorous. Assessment Level: Five Stars, C Grade, with formidable strength

Upon seeing this information, Yi Shuihan was astonished, his eyes nearly popping out.

Yishui Han suddenly realized that the old man Mu's intention to cultivate him was so evident. This truly was an exceptional opportunity. Since following this elder brought so many benefits and opened up a world previously inaccessible to him, why would he still be foolish enough not to seek apprenticeship?

He quickly knelt down before Master Mu and said: "I beg you to accept me as your disciple. In the future, no matter what you do, I will share the burden with you. Moreover, you can take me along as your apprentice when you go out, so you won't feel lonely."

At the moment when Yi Shuihan's expression was not right, a powerful and unparalleled spiritual force surrounded the area of the large coffin, and Yi Shuihan could not see the outside situation; it was a layer of cyan halo

After listening to the old man's words, Yi Shuihan felt an intense sense of gain and loss, as if he were soaring in paradise once again

After watching for half a day, I found it impossible to accept the situation with Yishuihan. The holographic display shows: Biological entity, Human. Physical strength: 23. Mental power: 23. Recovery ability: 58%. Status: Healthy. Assessment level: 1 star, E grade, strength is weak.

Old Master Mu laughed heartily at this moment: "Haha, reaching twenty-three is still not enough. Let me ask you, what percentage of your initial value of twenty does the increase of two points represent"

Yishui Han emerged from the large coffin, shaking his arms and said: "Grandfather Mu, I feel that there is no better state than now"

Old Master Mu chuckled and said: "You think too highly of yourself. Although everyone's limits are different, there comes a time when relying on external forces will no longer help you improve. At that point, you will need specific methods for self-cultivation. In simple terms, it involves harnessing the free energy of the universe to enhance oneself. However, that requires a certain mindset and a rigorous process. Right now, you are still far from that stage. You must first stabilize your maximum enhancement before you can engage with things at that level."

After the icy waters of Yishui fell into slumber, the liquid within the large coffin began to stir. Dozens of luminous tendrils extended from the surrounding walls, subsequently wrapping around Yishui Han, growing tighter and denser. At the same time, the number of tendrils increased from the initial dozens to hundreds and even thousands.

Twelve hours felt like only half an hour in the chill of the Yishui River, while the rest of the time seemed like an emptiness. When his body emerged from that liquid, Yishui Han felt an unprecedented strength and refreshment

It is probably close to ten percent. " Yi Shuihan replied earnestly.

Old Master Mu chuckled and said, "Take another look now."

More than ten hours have passed, and Old Master Mu has returned to the pyramid from outside

Lying in the large coffin is quite comfortable for Yishui Han, surrounded by liquid, and in this liquid, he seems to have transformed into a fish, feeling no sense of suffocation even when he opens his mouth wide

Ah, young one, encountering me can be considered your fortune. Even my formidable mental strength can barely withstand this; this young man's potential is extraordinary. Perhaps I am truly getting old. As the old man Mu sighed and became somewhat lost in thought, he suddenly remembered that there were still important tasks to attend to, and hurriedly made his way outside the pyramid

Yishui Han immediately realized something and continued to ask: "If what you say is true, then wouldn't I be invincible in the world? As long as I soak in it for twelve hours every day"

"You wouldn't comfort me, would you?" Yi Shuihan asked cautiously

Old Master Mu nodded and stroked his silver-white beard, saying: "So you should be very satisfied. Just think about it, an increase of ten percent in one go, what kind of effect would that have? This is based on a percentage increase, meaning that next time it will be a ten percent increase on the basis of twenty-three. I didn't expect someone your age to show such results; it seems you are truly blessed. If you were to strengthen yourself inside https://m.hetushu.com for a year, increasing by ten percent every single day, that would be truly remarkable"

The rustic country bumpkin from Yishui Han cannot fully comprehend what the values he sees represent. Some techniques and methods related to mental strength and physical application are beyond his reach, so witnessing these is less shocking to him than it would be for people from other planets.

Your potential is quite good, and there are unexpected thrills along the way. I will give you a pair of glasses; these glasses can easily reveal biological strength and mental power. However, some individuals can conceal their true abilities, so you may not see accurately. At present, it will still be very helpful for you to assess yourself.

The cold water of the Yi River made me feel parched and dry. I thought to myself: "I am a person, and so are they, and moreover, they appear to be a very old man. Yet, they are hundreds of times stronger than I am. This disparity is simply too great."

"How could this be?" Yi Shuihan exclaimed, as the old man Mu had truly brought him too many surprises

Upon this observation, it is only then that I find the situation with Yishui Han to be relatively normal. Species: Human. Physical Strength: 34. Mental Power: 47. Recovery Ability: 50%. Condition: Healthy. Assessment Level: One Star, D Grade, indicating weak strength.

Old Master Mu stood outside, taking a deep breath. A cyan halo quickly gathered at the back of his head, resembling an ancient deity, forming a cyan ring of light, which then gradually faded away

Upon seeing this object with its ancient design, Yi Shuihan could guess that it must have been unearthed from some tomb. Holding it in hand, he discovered that it could be fitted to his ear, and it was remarkably lightweight. He eagerly put it on, and to his surprise, it was indeed quite convenient. Suddenly, some data appeared before him, and the surrounding scenery became even more vibrant, yet this did not affect his vision at all. The first object of Yi Shuihan's observation was the old wooden man in front of him.

Yishui Han hurriedly looked at himself, having been too focused on watching Old Master Mu, and had not yet clearly seen the results of his enhancement

Although the time spent with the old gentleman was not long, Yi Shuihan, who had just lost a loved one, had subconsciously regarded this elder, who had saved him in a moment of crisis, as his own elder. Moreover, Old Man Mu genuinely liked this straightforward and somewhat naive young man.

This old gentleman has wandered through life, and now with the young man Yishui Han by his side, he has already regarded him as his own junior, thus he is keen to impart his guidance

Yishui Han nodded vigorously and said: "From today onwards, you are my grandfather."

Twenty-three? I remember that the Explorer's Set was measured at twenty-one. Could it be that my enhancement over these several hours has only resulted in an increase of two points in stamina and spirit? Old man, is your machine not functioning properly, or is the pyramid simply not suitable for me?" Yi Shuihan felt quite disheartened, realizing that he truly might not be cut out for greatness.

"I have employed certain techniques to conceal my true abilities, so you must not rely too heavily on this in the future, especially in battle. It is the techniques and the inspiration for a critical strike that are of utmost importance. Remember this well. When your strength reaches a certain level, I will also pass on these little techniques to you," the old master Mu said earnestly.
