Chapter 88 Rest (2)
The next day.
Gu Yangjie didn’t rise from his bedchamber until noon. It had been his first sleep lasting more than three hours in a long time.
He had always had to think about and worry over future matters, so many nights were spent sleepless.
Even when such things weren’t on his mind, he reduced his sleep to practice cultivation, making each day much the same as the last.
At least until yesterday.
“Haaaaaah…”
Gu Yangjeok stretched his arms behind him with a long yawn.
Perhaps because it was his first good sleep in so long, his body felt stiff and sore.
Had he ever rested this deeply before?
Gu Yangjeok shook his head lightly and opened the door.
Squeak, whoosh.
“Ah.”
The crisp dawn breeze made Gu Yang-jeok shiver slightly.
It was a sensation he felt because he hadn’t yet reached the realm of Hanseobulchim.
Gu Yang-jeok exhaled a white puff of breath.
‘If I just focused on training, it would take six or seven years.’
Immunity to Cold.
It was a realm attainable by diligently refining the spiritual energy and external techniques of the Jasmine Pill, spread across a thousand generations.
Reaching it at twenty-five was unheard of in martial history, save for one or two exceptions.
But Gu Yangji had walked this path before, and it was one he had revisited countless times in his quest to ascend further.
In fact, twenty-five felt too late. He needed to reach it at an even younger age to truly surpass his previous life.
Truthfully, even in his past life, he had achieved it at the remarkably young age of thirty.
