Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 875 The Struggles Of Cultivation

Feng had not expected the bed to be broken so easily. But the overwhelming feeling of drowning simply made him too anxious and he couldn't control his strength.

Back at the Black Sheep Blacksmith's forging halls, Feng had already tested out and gotten an idea of his strength. Even without a hammer, he was capable of bending the pieces of ore and even flattening them if he hammered them with his fists.

It was one of the reasons why he had chosen that place, as it solved two of his issues in one go.

But now the broken bed had only increased his burden once more.

~Sigh~

"More of the saved money will end up in this… guess I'll just have to make do with it for the month." Feng muttered to himself.

Thankfully, the way the bed had broken, it was only the legs that had collapsed and not the frame itself. So it had become a floor bed from a normal elevated bed.

'Still that drowning feeling… is that supposed to be normal?' Feng wondered for a while.

He even checked his body and verified if all the steps were correct, but couldn't find any reason.

"Should I perhaps ask senior?" Feng wondered. "No! I can't do that. Senior gave me the goal of reaching the late stage of the Qi refining realm by the end of the month and I have to achieve it in any way!" he said with determination.

With that decided, Feng sat back down in a cross-legged position and started to cultivate according to the nameless cultivation technique once more. Seconds passed by and Feng reached the one minute mark when the drowning feeling resurfaced.

'I must hold on!' Feng shouted in his mind.

His mouth and nose felt like they were being filled with water when using the breathing method, but Feng simply held on and kept on doing it.

By the second minute though, he couldn't keep up with it and had to stop.

~huu~

Feng let out a breath of exhaustion and laid back on the bed.

"What am I doing wrong?" Feng questioned, but couldn't find an answer.

~Sigh~

"Again!" Feng tried the entire process once more, this time lasting for an additional twenty seconds.

He took a pause after he was unable to do it, and began it again, repeating this cycle until an entire day had passed.

"Haaa… Haaa… Haaa… Six minutes… I can hold on… for six minutes…" Feng muttered to himself.

A day's world had increased by the time he could hold on from a minute to six minutes. While it seemed like a very short amount of time in terms of a cultivation session, it was still an improvement.

Feng would not have stopped and repeated it all, if not for the fact that his stomach was now protesting.

~groan~

"I need to eat…" Feng said as he looked at the sky outside.

It was a little past midnight, and he felt rather ravenous. The energy he had gained from eating all the food given by Lin Wu and the energy injected by him had been expended over the past couple of days and now Feng was in need of more food.

He left his room and went down to get some food in the tavern area of the Inn. Since there was always influx and efflux of people in Tieba city at all times of the day, finding food here at night was never an issue.

Most of the establishments in the city worked 24/7 and going there at night was often the same as going in the day. While the traffic was lower in the night, this was greatly different depending on the kind of establishment it was.

For a major inn like the White Sheep Inn, there was basically no change.

Feng saw a lot of people in the tavern and found himself a table in the corner. It didn't take long for a waiter to come to him and take his order.

But once Feng finished eating, he realized another problem.

'Damn… this is… not enough… it didn't even put a dent in my appetite.' Feng thought to himself.

It wasn't that the portion of food he had eaten right now was less, as it was something that should easily fill up a warrior at the seventh stage of the Body Refining realm or even most of the Qi refining realm cultivators.

Feng could, of course order more food, but comparing the amount of hunger he had and the money he had left, there was no way he could afford that.

"What do I do now?" Feng asked himself.

While he racked his head for ideas, he saw something that caught his eyes.

A group of men had just walked in with a few beast corpses on their backs. They weren't any strong beasts, just common beasts that could be easily found in the surroundings of Tieba city.

'Of course! I don't need to eat the food here. I can now hunt outside the city freely!' Feng understood.

In the past he had no strength to speak of, thus even leaving the city was out of question, not to mention hunting beasts.

Choosing this, Feng left the Inn and made his way to the nearest city exit. He reached it after about forty minutes and left it with no issues. After all, there were no guards that would block him or question him where he was going at this time.

There were a lot of beasts near Tieba city as it was surrounded by a mixture of terrains, from forests, hills, lakes, mountains to even a small desert. Of course, for Feng the closest area was just the forest near the exit he had taken and the beast that inhabited them.

With his enhanced senses, seeing in the dark was a lot easier and the moon in the sky also provided him with a faint light that helped him even more.

When morning arrived, a stack of smoke could be seen in the forest, along with the scent of some meat being cooked.
