Chapter 413: Countdown
Chapter 413: Countdown
Rudra was inside the boiling hot black liquid tub filled to the brim with corrosive liquid laced with energy of destruction.
His very fibre of being was being torn down by the destructive force of the liquid , while 64 priests constantly supported him by healing his body , by supplying life energy consistently to him.
Rudra had to maneuver the energy being poured into him towards the damaged parts in a way that the creation and destruction reached an equilibrium.
Which was easier said than done as it would make him actively focus on the pain and it was excruciating to bear.
Rudra was literally howling from inside , yet he mentained a serene face , not uttering a single noise despite the high pain , focussing only on teaching an equilibrium between creation and destruction. To stabilize his body and hang in there for as long as he could.
The priests healing Rudra were surprised to see that someone was sitting calmly in such a pool , where even the bravest knights screamed like little girls.
They commended the Honorary Bishop from the bottom of their hearts , as they thought his demeanor was worthy of someone holding office in the church of light.
Calmly accepting pain and suffering, while remaining strong was one of the virtues of the goddess of life , who was a selfless giver.
Meanwhile the examiner who was watching Rudra take the test had a serene smile on his face , as he could see that Rudra was on the right track in balancing both the energies being supplied to him.
Although Rudra did not understand the concept of yin and yang , ie creation and destruction yet. This was a special cultivation method called the Ying Yang cultivation , practiced in a land which is not Earth by martial practicioners who temper their body.
This technique is immensely beneficial to body refining cultivators , and the balance that Rudra had delicately mentained currently , took those practicioners nearly 300 years to achieve , as the life energy supplied by the priests currently was offset by natural body healing in that land.
As time progressed Rudra felt less and less pain , untill it slowly became bearable and Rudra was able to put his mind completely into healing himself.
The worst was behind him , as now he would slowly become immune to the corrosion and it would become easier and easier.
The priests around the room looked completely pale and deviod of mana , apparently they were not used to supplying healing energy for soo long , as most knight's dropped in the first minute , let alone last for 3 hours in the tub.
However Rudra did just that , and showed no signs of stopping as he was determined to see this through.
2 more hours later , the loss of HP from his body became as slow as -1 , -1 , -1 as it slowly became 0.
He had became immune to the level of corrosion in the tub… His body had undergone a complete qualitative change.
Although he went through hell in the 5 hour bath in the tub , his body came out from the tub feeling fresher and stronger than ever. Rudra felt as if he could jump 10 feet in the air with a casual flick of the toes… He was that strong right now.
His muscles when he contracted them , looked like Michelangelo's David , sculpted!
Just when he was admiring his new look , a system notification broke his stupor

( Meanwhile , Neatwit )
Neatwit had also successfully promoted to tier 3 , becoming the first player in the Nothern continent to do so , beating Rudra by 7 hours for the title.
For him this war was more important than anyone else from the guild , as he had a very strong personal cause attatched to it.
He was not the best player in the guild , nor the strongest ȧssaulter , he was not even a very good elder and he knew about these faults in himself.
Rudra and Karna outclassed him in this aspect… However he was a man who was not to be crossed , as when he went berserk. Not even 10,000 could stop him in his blaze of fury!
/// Guys comment down below on what skills you want Rudra to choose.
Like always I will listen to you all and decide the future course of action for the novel… Soo make sure you voice your opinions , as the majority of them will prevail.
