《Master of Jade Cauldron》Book 2 Chapter 109 - Prosperity Realm - Day 3 - 4 - 5 Time Skip(Gou Yu)

"So, what do you want to achieve within this realm with me?" the Wood Xuan Wu speaks above Gou Yu's head.
"I want to get stronger!" he answered the question with a short sentence.
"No matter what is the price?" Wood Xuan Wu asked once more.
"No matter as long I will get stronger!" he answered again.
"So..."
"I want you to pay me with fifty drops of your Water and Earth Pure Essence." the Wood Xuan Wu speaks out his prices to help him.
"What is that Water and Earth Pure Essence?" Gou Yu face filled with an empty expression.
"This treasure comes from the Xuan Wu's across the globe."
"What I will teach you, will be the secret art belonged to myself, created after revising it from a failure after another."
[Elemental Growth Classic]
"Isn't the name amazing?" the Wood Xuan Wu announce the name of the Art he created.
"Yes..." Gou Yu is speechless, but he can't help but agree with the tortoise.
"Then be ready, the starting is a hard part..."
"Then the harder part..."
"Then even harder..."
The two later spend one full day to exchange and learn the Elemental Growth Classic and on the second day, Gou Yu executes whatever he learned. Compared to Nan Jing Jing, his training is less challenging, but reality sometimes hurt.
This Elemental Growth Classic is suitable for Gou Yu to temper his foundation using a method suitable for Saint Beast.
Although the profoundness of this art is higher, for first-stage foundation cultivator alike Gou Yu, this training deviates from hell.
The two elements, Water and Earth within his body forced to mix to form a new kind known as Water and Earth. It sounds as if two name fits together, but in term of strength, they aren't.
The power and strength of this new source are five times stronger, and one time more sensitive than ever.
But the state of this new form source is fragile, it cause Gou Yu to use these to temper his foundation, so he can form a better one.
This repeating procedure goes one after another, and from each try, it builds up Gou Yu's foundation in both Water and Earth.

"I see that this kid understands the speciality of his constitution." the Wood Xuan Wu looked at the cultivator before him and smiled.
In elemental foundation, although the elements are important, the understanding is even deeper.
Compared to Long Feng's Fire and Wood elemental, which compliments with each other during a fight, and the Sky elemental, that harmonize everything.
Or compared to Nan Jing Jing's Water, Earth, Metal and Lightning Elemental that increase her potential, Gou Yu is nowhere capable to stands beside them.
But what he has, is the supporting effect of his Water and Earth elemental!
This trick can only do if used by a cultivator possessing only Water and Earth Elemental within his foundation.
By using the strength of Earth's creation and Water's nourishment, Gou Yu able to create an unlimited nourishment from his body straight to temper himself by removing the needs to absorb the water and earth essence within the air.
This way, his progress can only describe as using one word, cheating.
Without bothering about the first preparation such as refining and purifying the elemental essence before entering his body, the progress is so much quicker than how a normal person should be.
Added with the speed he tempers his body while repeating the same procedures once again, he turned into a converter of Water and Earth Elemental Essence.
If the Thousand Training Formation Cave's Grand Room gave a result of 25% increase in cultivation, then Gou Yu's Elemental Growth Classic is comparable to stacking ten Grand Room in his own body.
One more day passed.
Gou Yu current strength is at peak of the first stage in his Water Elemental foundation while his earth elemental foundation is stabilizing into excellent affinity.
At the moon phase before the end of day 5, Gou Yu stops from continuing.
He takes a look at his changes in overall.
Gou Yu wave his hands in a spontaneous way, creating a wall of water mirage.
He channels the of the Water Elemental next on his fingers, creating ten droplets of water gather at his fingertip.
"Clear Water Stage! Heavy Droplet Strike!" Gou Yu aims at a direction as he swings both hands to launch the ten droplets.
While at the direction he was attacking a metal board appeared out of nowhere as it faces the attack from Gou Yu.

"Pring!"
"Pring!"
Each time a droplet hit the metal board, it creates an ear-deafening sound.
Next, four swords formed from thin air and strike towards Gou Yu's direction.
"Water Phantom!"
The four sword strikes at the Gou Yu who did not move from the spot.
But instead of piercing through, the four swords stuck on the body which wobbles like a bubble.
"Wood Xuan Wu, you are full of opening!" Gou Yu shouts as he swings a kick towards where the tortoise stands.
"Dream too much!" the tortoise vanished from the spot and appeared at another second later.
"Am I still dreaming too much?" Gou Yu wave his hand for a moment while Wood Xuan Wu saw he is standing within the Clear Water Prison created by Gou Yu.
"A prison made with Water Foundation?"
"Don't forget that I am Wood Xuan Wu! Your elemental will bring no effect on me!" the tortoise swims within the prison as it tried to suck in all the surrounding water.
"I invite you to try." Gou Yu still confident with his Clear Water Prison.
Few second later, Wood Xuan Wu understands what spot he got himself.
Water that doesn't behave like a liquid. The solid earth that doesn't appear solid at all.
The Wood Xuan Wu realized that he nurtured a dangerous being that can use the Water and Earth Element into such profound stage.
A minute later, Gou Yu released the Wood Xuan Wu from his Clear Water Prison as they continue.
"Skinning Diagram, Confining Diagram!"
"Stripping Diagram, Swallowing Diagram!"
"Leading Diagram, Following Diagram!"
"Six Diagram overpowered Soldier, defeat the enemy before you!" the Wood Xuan Wu prepares the final test for Gou Yu.
"Master... Thank you." Gou Yu put his hand together to give the Wood Xuan Wu a bow before he prepares to fight against the six golden soldier.
Half an hour later, Gou Yu appeared to where they located before he went into the Void Space.
It looks like Gou Yu has benefitted the most from his training, because his Water Foundation is at its peak of Clear Water Stage, while his Earth Foundation is at its Peak of Hard Earth Stage.
He sits on top of the floating formation next and prepares his both hand to creates a masterpiece.
The gathered Water and Earth Elemental surrounding him intensifies, as he creates, absorb, and release them.
This action soon creates a thick cloud of essence surrounding him as he gathered them to form a translucent water droplet.
The droplet solidifies and appeared to be a mix of two different colour, an Azure blue with a hint of marbling from the brown.
Gou Yu use his hand to catch that piece of Water and Earth Pure Essence.
Questions with the success of his creation, Gou Yu tried to assimilate it on the spot and got shocked with the results.
Then, the Wood Xuan Wu appeared by his side.
"This is one treasure many sought. It has many kinds of name, but the one often mentions by the cultivators is as the Dual Element Pure Essence."
"If people see your ability to create such a treasure, you will become their golden goose on spot."
"Because no matter how, as long you create this treasure, your foundation will strengthen along, making you undefeatable among your peers."
"Now, my golden goose, you promise me 50 drops of this Dual Element Pure Essence." Wood Xuan Wu smiles as he looked at Gou Yu.
Now, only Long Feng left.
"Wood Xuan Wu, why am I not learning these skills too? I hold four elements, you know?" Nan Jing Jing surprised with Gou Yu's special trick he had just learnt, and she too wants to practice that too.
"Unfortunately, this skill can only use by him, because of his elements compliments against each other. Although you got Water, Earth, Lightning and Metal elements in hand, but if you tried to create the same thing like him, your effort will only end with something neither two, nor neither four elements in a complete piece."
"Plus one more reason. You hold too many elements with you."
"Where can you source your Essence energy?" Wood Xuan Wu's word actually contains some fact and reason within.

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.
