His body continued to twitch uncontrollably, and it took 30 more minutes before Lin Yao could finally move his fingers slightly.

This scene was witnessed by the senior who had been guarding Lin Yao.

“He’s moving. Junior Brother is conscious. That’s really fast.”

“Is the recovery caused by the power of light that frightening?”

“Okay, stop talking about this. Junior Brother, feel your body quickly and try to recall the sensation of being electrocuted.”

As soon as this was said, Lin Yao’s body twitched even more severely.

Recall? No, there was no need to go to this trouble. Lin Yao’s body would instinctively twitch at the sound of the word “electricity” instantly. This went to show how much Lin Yao feared the electric shock he had experienced earlier.

Senior Sister Jiang Rong was aware that the electrocution process was indeed unbearable. Nevertheless, she still said quickly, “You have to feel and sense the earlier process of being electrocuted. This is the key to using your nerves to unlock the shackles on your body. Otherwise, your earlier pain and suffering will be in vain. Come on!”

“Ah Yao, you can do it.”

The surrounding cheers made Lin Yao overcome his fear and try to recall the pain and suffering he had gone through earlier. However, his body began to twitch madly as soon as he recalled it.

That kind of pain had already been engraved into Lin Yao’s bones and could not be forgotten. Although pain and suffering were not good, they had left a deep impression on him. Lin Yao was able to recall the memory very vividly. Amid the pain and suffering, he successfully recalled the feeling of the electric current running around the inside of his body.

Lin Yao then instinctively used the trace of this feeling on his body. He immediately realized that his control of his body had improved tremendously.

At first, he could only move his fingers after lying down for 1.5 hours. Now, he felt like a patient who had just recovered from a long-term illness. After great difficulty and falling down four times in a row, he finally managed to brace himself up.

“Da, da, da, da…”

Lin Yao wanted to speak, but he was trembling and his teeth were chattering.

“Don’t be anxious. You are already doing very well. Take your time.”

“No, you can’t take your time. Lin Yao, remember the earlier sensation and restore control over your body. Then try your best to get up and practice military boxing. This is the only way to unleash the benefits of the electric current’s development completely.”

Professor Li was the one speaking. He still had that gray-haired, kind look. However, at the moment, Lin Yao had the feeling that he was looking at a demon king.

Nevertheless, amid the fear in his heart, Lin Yao could sense Professor Li’s kind intention. What he had said was correct. If Lin Yao would like to unleash the full effect of the electric current’s stimulation, he would have to train the moment his body recovered.

However, Lin Yao was feeling weak all over. It was as if his bones had been extracted, and he could not even stand still. How could he practice military boxing, which would exhaust a lot of physical strength?

“I know it’s difficult for you to practice boxing, but being active is better than sitting down. Do you still remember the pain you felt earlier? If you gained nothing despite experiencing that much pain and suffering, would you take it lying down?”

Lin Yao certainly felt indignant. Although he knew that this was reverse psychology, he forced himself to get up and began to practice military boxing feebly.

The first round of training was very difficult. Lin Yao could only make a few crooked movements, and he would fall to the ground from time to time because he couldn’t feel his bones and his body would twitch randomly.

Fortunately, his looks proved to be useful in this situation. Jiang Rong and the group had prepared many cushions and placed them under Lin Yao’s feet to prevent him from falling down miserably.

After falling down, Lin Yao quickly stood up and continued to practice military boxing. Because of his crooked movements, Lin Yao did not consume too much energy. Then came the second time, the third time, and the fifth time… until he completed one set of military boxing.

After completing a set of military boxing, Lin Yao regained control over his body. He then practiced military boxing repeatedly by following the instructions of Professor Li.

With the advancement of sunlight absorption to the Armored Body of Light, Lin Yao’s ability to absorb sunlight had improved tremendously. The power of the sun could penetrate Lin Yao’s cells deeply, allowing him to use the power of the sun efficiently. In addition, he had brought several bottles of nutrient drinks with him, so he was able to have 15 sessions of boxing at one go.

When he had practiced 10 sessions of military boxing, the other person with thunder talent whom Lin Yao had bumped into upon arriving, the one who had been carried out on a stretcher, exited the ward.

While Lin Yao was sweating and panting, no longer able to continue, that man was still carrying out simple recovery movements, such as walking, with the help of the nurse. At that moment, Wang Wu stepped out with someone holding onto him.

When he saw that Lin Yao had already carried out a complete session of training, Wang Wu’s eyes almost popped.

“How is this possible? You… You are behind me… How… How did you recover before me?”

He was surprised, but Lin Yao knew why.

‘During the day, the Armored Body of Light is a divine skill.’

Electric shock development stimulated the cells of the entire body, and this kind of injury was very hard to heal completely. Ordinary people would become handicapped after going through such electric shocks. Talented people with thunder abilities could recover, as they had some resistance to electricity. Nevertheless, they also needed to rest for a long time before they could actively move.

Coincidentally, the sunlight absorbed by Lin Yao was also stored in the cells and could thus heal the wounds within the cells. Therefore, he could finish his rehabilitation training by himself while the others were just able to get up.

After finishing this training, Lin Yao looked at the enclosed electric current stimulation room again and his body couldn’t help but tremble. The torture and suffering caused by the electric current were truly unbearable.

Upon seeing Lin Yao tremble, Professor Li said hurriedly, “Don’t worry, you won’t need to be stimulated by electric current in the near future. Hold onto this.”

While speaking, Professor Li gave Lin Yao a silver metal patch.

As the patch touched the palm of his hand, a weak electric current flowed from the patch and into Lin Yao’s body immediately. Although the current was very weak, Lin Yao’s body trembled violently all of a sudden and the patch was thrown away by the impact.

Professor Li was not surprised. He glanced at Lin Yao and asked, “Did you sense the electric current? What was it like this time? Do you feel any pain in your body? I don’t mean mental pain but physical pain in your cells.”

After contemplating Professor Li’s words shortly, Lin Yao carefully replied, “Yes.”

“That’s right then. The electric current has penetrated the cells deeply. This kind of injury cannot heal in one or two days. Hold onto this patch. When you no longer feel a faint tingling sensation or scorching pain but enjoyment when you come into contact with an external electric current, come and look for me again.

“Well, most people with thunder talent need about 10 to 15 days to recover fully.”

“Got it.”

Upon seeing Lin Yan go very silent after being stimulated by the electric current, Professor Li sighed. “I know you’re a little scared, but remember: There is no free lunch in this world. A rainbow won’t appear before the wind and the rain. The electric current stimulation can fully develop your body. Your body is more sensitive during the first round of the development, and you should feel the increase in your strength.”

Lin Yao could indeed perceive that. When his body recovered earlier, Lin Yao sank his Sea of Consciousness into his soul and saw his attribute interface on the young sapling.
