The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

253 Training 'Icy Body' Technique



A boy could be seen meditating in a freezing environment; A six-feathered bird with blue flames inside its eyes could be seen opening its beak and releasing a large amount of ice energy. The boy was covered in a layer of ice but continued with his meditation. He was using his focus to observe the change in his body.

His body was transforming; He was feeling burning pain all over his body, but he held on. He had felt even harsher pain, so he was not concerned about it. This continued for some hours before the ice around his body broke. The boy cried as the pain increased.

He slowly stood up with his shaky legs; There was not a trace of cloth on his body. He clenched his hands and felt that his skin had gotten a lot tougher. He took out a potion and drank it to relieve his pain. After working hard for three days, he had reached the first stage of the icy body, or 'icy skin,' and he could feel his defense getting two times stronger.

This was just the beginning; The only thing was that he needed a lot of resources to cultivate this body technique. He also learned after checking that his skin now covered his wounds in ice to stop excess blood flow, and with his passive skill plus this, his regeneration ability has become stronger.

He patted his contract beast and summoned it back before going to the bathroom to take a quick shower; He came out after a while and noticed that he looked a little different. His facial skin was tighter now, which made his jawline stronger. He changed into his academy uniform and left his apartment.

It was already evening when he disguised himself again and went to the same room that he had booked for two hours. Today he only got two customers, even though when waiting for a long time he would usually get five to six customers; He was about to leave early when a boy came. He looked at Rishi and greeted him before saying, "I have a semi-elite-grade magic beast. Can you evolve it? I have asked for many Two-Star Beast Cultivators, but they were unable to do it. The three Star Beast cultivators are very expensive to hire in money."

Rishi nodded and asked him to show his contract beast; The boy nodded and summoned his contract beast. A two-headed serpent appeared in front of Rishi. Its one head was red, while the other was green like the rest of its body.

Rishi looked at it carefully and saw through it; this was probably due to mutation, and while this helped to make this beast stronger, the conflict it created shortened this beast's life. He looked at her calmly; this was not something very hard to fix for him.

"How much can you pay? I will be honest; you are asking me to evolve your beast to Elite Grade while also fixing its condition. This is not an easy task; it will require me to spend a lot of time," said Rishi.

The boy said, "1000 CP." Rishi didn't say anything; he just kept looking at him. The boy increased the price to "1200 CP." Rishi still had the same uninterested expression on his face.

"Fine, 1500 CP then; I am sorry I can't pay you more than that," he bowed in honesty.

"Alright," replied Rishi; this is already a good amount. It was not something hard for him to fix, but he was not willing to help the boy out of goodwill. He had learned this from his grandpa: 'If you are good at something, never do it for free.'

He left the room and went straight to the Ice Cultivation Area, 'Frozen Cave.' This was a high-level training ground. It cost him 100 CP per hour. He sighed and entered; He wanted to cultivate his 'icy body' faster, and the only way was to use more resources.

The second stage of this technique was known as 'frozen flesh,' and cultivating it was not easy. He kept walking deeper into the cave; the temperature decreased the further he moved. He kept walking and started feeling that a layer of ice was surrounding his body, but he kept walking until he reached the end. He sat there and started cultivating.

He drank the 'Body Tempering Potion' for the Ice Element to increase the speed of his cultivation and started his cultivation. He sat down and absorbed the ice energy in the surrounding area; This process was easy at the start, but as time passed, he started feeling pain. It was as if multiple small ice needles were entering his flesh.

It was a painful and extremely uncomfortable process. He was able to somehow manage at the beginning, but as time passed, he started crying in agony; His body was telling him to give up, but he held on, not giving up.

This struggle continued for two hours before he started feeling that his whole body was freezing—first the surface, then his organs. Even his heart was beating slower, but he continued. A red presence radiated from him, and he was somehow able to keep going.

A small cracking sound came from his body; it was not from his bones but from his frozen flesh. This continued for half an hour more before a small explosion appeared surrounding him and a cold gust of wind was released from his body. He inhaled and started absorbing the ice energy inside his body.

This was the second stage of icy body cultivation known as 'Frozen Flesh,' Not only his body became tougher, but his ice affinity and control also increased. But that was not all; he was now able to store icy energy inside his flesh in the form of small crystals.

They were nowhere compared to his Shadow Core, but they did help him a lot. He utilized his remaining time and only left when he had completed it. He stretched and could hear a cracking sound; his muscles had become a lot tougher. He also felt he could not feel pain all over his body; he could now keep fighting even in an injured state.

He could still sense pain but was able to control his pain sensitivity, like in virtual reality, which was very handy while fighting. Sometimes pain stops warriors from giving their best. A large amount of pain freezes a person in shock, which gives your opponent a big chance to defeat you. He also believed regeneration would be much better now that he had a better body.
