Chapter 24: Current Limit
Shen Yuxin spoke to Shen Yuan after bringing him out of his daydreams, "All right, let's continue testing your strength," she motioned to the wooden puppet that she had taken out before and continued,
"This puppet can withstand 150 tons of force, but from the looks of it, your strength is clearly higher than only 150 tons. But, hehe, it's always fun to destroy things, right?"
At the end of her words, there was a slight mischievous tone mixed in her voice which sent a slight chill in Shen Yuan's back. He rubbed his neck as he spoke with slight excitement; after all, which man didn't like to destroy stuff? "Alright Mom, I'm ready now."
He moved towards the puppet to stand in front of it, getting in his stance to punch.
BOOM!!
Once again, it exploded; even the puppet, which could withstand 150 tons of force, couldn't withstand a single punch from Shen Yuan, but this time, there were bigger chunks of wood left. From the looks of it, Shen Yuan was reaching his limit as well.
Shen Yuan took back his hand from the front with a satisfied grin on his face, but before he could catch his breath, he caught the sight of his smiling Mom who took out another puppet while saying,
"This one can withstand up to 200 tons; you can do it, Yuan!" At the end of her words, she even cheered for Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan's eyes twitched as he wondered if she was taking revenge for something, and what he didn't know was that he was right, she saw what he did with Huo Rong in the bathroom.
She was pissed that Huo Rong went ahead of herself and got Shen Yuan's first kiss. But since she was such a good Mom, she couldn't do anything straightforward to him, so this was her way of punishing him a little.
Shen Yuan didn't want to argue with his own mother, so he just went ahead and got ready to hit the puppet again while thinking, 'If the puppets keep getting a darker complexion like this, then they will be black soon enough.'
He planted his feet firmly on the ground, stretched his muscles, and took aim at the center of the puppet.
He used his full body for this punch, as it connected with the chest of the puppet.
BOOM!!
Once again, the puppet got destroyed, but there were quite a few larger chunks of it left; hands and feet were deformed but still in one piece.
Shen Yuxin nodded her head as she went forward and said, "Looks like you are reaching your limits soon, you won't be able to damage the next puppet from the looks of it. Let's see how much strength you can exert at this moment."
She took out another puppet from her storage ring, "This one can withstand 250 tons of force; use all your strength to hit it; I can tell how much strength you have from the impact of your attack."
Shen Yuan nodded his head and went towards the puppet once again.
He got in his stance, making sure to use his full strength, he took a deep breath and unleashed all his strength. Exerting himself to the maximum.
Boom!
There was a loud bang, but the puppet wasn't destroyed or even sent flying; Shen Yuan looked at it with astonishment as he realized what his mother said was true.
He looked towards his mother expectantly waiting to see how high his strength was, Shen Yuxin smiled slightly as she told him what he wanted to know the most right now, "It's really impressive how much strength you have at your stage Yuan'er, you have around 210 tons of raw strength, it's more than what normal Bone Forging Realm cultivators have."
Shen Yuan nodded in understanding but decided to ask the system, 'System, show the status window.'
[Ding!]
[Primordial Harem System]
[Host: Shen Yuan]
[Title: Genius ]
[Cultivation Base: Flesh Training Realm]
[Bloodline: ???]
[Physique- Saint-Rank Primal Harmony Physique (Primordial Rank Sealed)]
[Talents- ]
[Techniques- Chaos Body Refinement Technique, Basic Qi Gathering Technique]
[Chaos Coins-0]
[System Shop]
[Inventory]
[Remark- Grow Up Fast!]
Shen Yuan looked through the System interface, and the first thing he noticed was that his realm had changed; he nodded his head and looked further down, 'Hmm, I still don't know the name of my bloodline or what power it has, hell I don't even know it's tier.'
He didn't bother thinking about it more as he looked at his physique next, 'I still don't know what my physique can do or how I can utilize it.' Before he could think further the system interrupted his thoughts,
[Host need not worry about his physique; Host should first increase his cultivation; the physique is useless in the Body Forging Realm except for giving a boost to the body.]
Shen Yuan got curious as the system told him about boosts he asked, 'System, what kind of boosts do different tiers of physique give the physique owner?'
The system replied,
[From the weakest to the strongest-
Average: 5 tons
Mortal: 10 tons
Earthly: 15 tons
Heavenly: 20 tons
Supreme: 25 tons
Saint: 30 tons
These are the average raw strength that physiques give to their owners at the strength awakening stage. You awaken with 5 tons without any physique, and the value will be higher with each tier.]
[The value gets doubled at the next stage
Average: 10 tons
Mortal: 20 tons
Earthly: 30 tons
Heavenly: 40 tons
Supreme: 50 tons
Saint: 60 tons]
Shen Yuan looked through all the values and got confused as he asked, 'If these are the stats then why do I have 210 tons of raw strength?'
The system replied,
[Did the host forget about bloodlines?]
Shen Yuan replied angrily, 'Stop making fun of me and just answer it.
[The bloodline also plays a factor in enhancing the cultivator's body, even though the enhancement isn't as major as a physique.
Mortal: 10%
Earthly: 25%
Heavenly: 50%
Supreme: 100%
Saint: 250%]
