Advertisement
During the following days Alexander lived like a normal baby, Sometimes he played with his sisters and sometimes with his grandparents, While Audrey and Anna were training, Thanks to Alexander giving directions to Audrey during the nights, her and his mother's Cultivation Increased very quickly. But since the two were cultivating from the beginning, the people around them did not notice the changes in their cultivation.
An average person has a certain limit to their strength, after breaking that limit, they can reach the first stage of body refinement, suppose an average person has a limit of 50 Pounds of strength, but when he reaches the first stage of body refinement, their strength increases to 100 pounds and when he advances to the next stage his strength increases by 50 pounds for each stage until the third stage, from fourth to the sixth stage his strength increases by 100 pounds for each stage and from seventh to the ninth stage it'll increase by 200 pounds for each stage, so the strength of a person at the peak of the ninth stage of body refinement is 1100 pounds he can defeat 22 ordinary people all by himself without breaking a sweat!
But due to the cultivation technique, his mother and Audrey become invincible within the same cultivation level, as with their cultivation technique they received twenty percent more strength than others without cultivation techniques. Alexander could give them a better cultivation technique but he thought about the future, if he gives them a treasure coveted by all they may end up dead, besides that "Six Animal forms" was created only to be used in the Realm of body refinement, due to that it was classified as Low-rank technique, but when it comes to refining the body it's the best technique available, Many treated this technique as garbage, but in the eyes of Alexander, who spent more than a thousand years researching techniques, saw through its depth and deduced the real motive of the creator, which was only to lay deep foundations for the following Realms.

8 73Heart of Cultivation
Book one is now available for purchase or download through Kindle Unlimited! Jian was a prodigy, at least until he discovered that his path of cultivation had hit a dead end almost as soon as it began. That was all years ago, though. He has long since resigned himself to his fate and prepared himself for a dull, ordinary, but happy life. Stunted cultivation or no, he's clever enough to carve out his own comfortable niche. Unfortunately, not all of the matters from his past have been settled. When a reckless mistake threatens to cost him everything, Jian will have to prove that he's desperate enough to rise to the occasion. Or that he's capable of avoiding the consequences. This is an affectionate reconstruction of the xianxia genre. I will be deploying the tropes from the genre that I enjoy in a framework that I think makes sense. The story updates on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes other days.
