Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Outrageous Side Effects—Five-Minute Experience of Labor Pain!

As soon as the cultivation technique was freshly released, Lin Ping'an immediately prepared to experience it at the first moment.

Of course, it wasn't about experiencing it with his real body outside; instead, he planned to first run it in the creation space.

Here, even if something goes wrong, it won't affect his body outside.

Sometimes, it's better to play it safe.

Lin Ping'an sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and operated the Painful Demon Body Technique, with qi blood moving accordingly.

After one minute... the whole body started to feel slight pain... cultivation speed increased to twice...

After two minutes... the pain intensified... cultivation speed tripled...

After three minutes... the pain greatly intensified... cultivation speed rose to four times...

After four minutes... the pain once again greatly intensified... cultivation speed reached five times...

After five minutes... the pain level approached twelve, i.e., the pain of childbirth... cultivation speed directly soared to six times...

...

After eight minutes, Lin Ping'an lay on the ground, questioning life with a vacant, dull stare.

It took quite a while before he snapped back to his senses.

"Oh my... this... this... this side effect is too outrageous... five minutes of experiencing childbirth pain."

"It's several times more painful than I imagined! Even if immunity to mental and soul pain is there, it's still so tough."

"But it's still bearable; this bit of pain is manageable!"

"After so many years with no hope, now that I've finally seen the light, how could I be knocked down by mere pain?"

"Next, let's try out the feedback effects."

Lin Ping'an exited the creation space, picked up the phone next to him, and checked the time.

"Exactly the same as before entering, not a second off."

"No time spent? Or is the ratio so large that it's less than a second?"

"Forget it! I'll study it slowly in the future!"

"The physical aftereffects disappeared entirely after leaving the space, which is nice."

Then, with a thought, Lin Ping'an connected to the Celestial Dao Network, and his spiritual consciousness entered another virtual world again.

The so-called Celestial Dao Network is one of the racial heritages established through the communication between the Martial Arts Great Power and the Human Race consciousness, somewhat similar to the Metaverse concept proposed in the previous world.

As long as you are in the Human Race World, anywhere the Heavenly Dao Consciousness touches, you can use spiritual power to communicate and enter it.

The time ratio with the outside world passes equally, and it needs to be conducted in a safe environment.

In the Celestial Dao Network, you can engage in purchasing cultivation techniques, exchanging intelligence, publishing tasks, and so on.

But once logged in, it continually consumes spiritual power; most people can't stay long.

Ordinary people can only enter for about an hour, and after the consumption is complete, it takes them a while to recover their spiritual power.

As the martial arts realm improves and spiritual power increases, the time they can stay gets longer and longer.

Hence, Lin Ping'an has at most one hour. The system protects his spiritual power from external attacks, but it doesn't mean it won't consume itself.

"Time is tight, tasks are heavy, better not waste time."

Lin Ping'an didn't even look at the overwhelming information in front of him; he directly contacted the Celestial Dao Network for cultivation technique certification.

With the writing of spiritual power, the relevant content of the Painful Demon Body started to appear, forming a cultivation technique book.

Immediately, after clicking submit, the cultivation technique disappeared without a trace.

At the same time.

In an unknown space, an unknown will received the relevant cultivation technique content and began to evaluate and verify it.

A billionth of a second later, it braked abruptly for a moment, then resumed normal operation.

On the other side, the words "Certification Successful" appeared in front of Lin Ping'an.

At the same time, relevant info about the cultivation technique appeared.

[Cultivation Technique Name: Painful Demon Body]

[Type: Qi Blood Cultivation Technique]

[Cultivation Technique Level: Yellow Level]

[Difficulty Level: 0 Star]

[Cultivation Speed: 10 Stars]

[Rating: ??? Stars]

In the same space, a shiny badge representing the identity of a One-Star Civilization Master appeared next to Lin Ping'an's panel.

Also, the function for cultivation technique publication was opened to him at this moment.

Seeing this, he went into publication. There was only one option to adjust, which was the price.

The cultivation techniques, heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and weapon items sold in the Celestial Dao Network are all traded using merit points.

The sources of merit points are diverse; slaying alien races, completing tasks published by others, etc., can all earn them.

The so-called alien race refers to the Demon Race, with various appearances, different races, and different talent abilities; they are the greatest enemies of the Human Race.

The actual combat power of the Ten Thousand Races far surpasses that of the Human Race, only giving the Human Race a chance to catch their breath because of internal discord.

Lin Ping'an tried adjusting it a bit; the lowest price was just 1 merit point, so he set its selling price to 1 merit point and published it.

If it could be posted for free, he would absolutely make it free.

Relatively speaking, merit points aren't of such high value to him; allowing more people to cultivate the created cultivation technique and increasing its popularity can earn more civilization points.

This is Lin Ping'an's top priority for improvement.

Resource-wise, it doesn't matter at all. By relying on others' cultivation feedback, it's enough to gain speed enhancements thousands of times his own.

With low aptitude, even using heavenly materials and earthly treasures is a case of twice the effort for half the result.

There are some bottlenecks that he can't break through on his own.

Operating in a pyramid scheme style is the true way.

Of course, to be safe, Lin Ping'an did not use his real name but instead published it using a pseudonym.

The pseudonym is quite subtle, called the Warrior of Love.

In Lin Ping'an's view, this cultivation technique allows more people to feel the greatness of a mother's love.

The Warrior of Love, a name that matches perfectly.

As it stands now, the strength is so low and weak, and it can't be too arrogant.

After all, the Human Race doesn't have that much peace internally, and who knows how many cultists are hiding.

Otherwise, his parents wouldn't have met with disaster back then.

After the publication was successful, Lin Ping'an exited the Celestial Dao Network, he did not continue to linger nor wait for the outcome.

The sensation of completely depleting spiritual power isn't pleasant; he has experienced it before.

Days of listless state, truly not worth it.

A dozen seconds later.

Lin Ping'an sat on the bed, gazed out the window, and grinned.

"Next, let time verify everything."

"Damn cultists? Just wait! I will make you bastards pay in blood."

"Those who were involved back then won't escape either; all of them must die!"

Saying this, he got off and went to the living room, sat cross-legged, and prepared to cultivate the Painful Demon Body Technique.

Even though he said earlier about letting others cultivate and reaping the benefits without effort, enduring such pains;

But in reality, after eighteen years of no hope, now having a glimmer of hope, a little pain is nothing.

On the other side of the Celestial Dao Network.

The emergence of new cultivation techniques also began to be gradually discovered.

After all, putting anything else aside, the 0-star cultivation difficulty and 10-star cultivation speed are enough to attract attention.
