Chapter 227 Tyrant Physique?
"What about me? Am I a genius too? You said so yourself just a while ago..." Davis raised his brows.
"Hmm, I have checked you enough. Since you can fight across levels using your Soul Forging Cultivation, you are definitely a genius and there's no doubt about it."
"Hehe, I think my soul is about 5 times stronger..." Davis smirked as he rubbed his nose, quite proud.
Garvin turned smug, "I inspected and found out that you have no special physique except other than your soul being stronger."
"It doesn't matter..." Davis shrugged but was confused. Didn't he possess the Tyrant Physique?
"Heh, sooner or later, you would lose your advantage of being able to fight across levels and reduced to be merely a common cultivator."
"What!? Why?" Davis was shocked! His face expressed worry.
Old Man Garvin shook his head, "As I said before, you'll lose your advantage as you advance through stages."
"Once you get to the Fifth Stage, it is not easy anymore to fight across stages. You must've realized this at some point."
"It's because the rift and the power gap increases by a large margin at every stage, even in the levels of the latter stages."
Davis's expression turned aghast but his eyes told that he had already expected this to be the outcome.
Davis calmed down and thought to the time he tried to fight a Fifth Stage Soul Forging Cultivator, Elder Severin.
"See..." Garvin shrugged, "Your battle aura is tinged with a faint amount of elementary Earth Laws..."
When pointed out by Garvin, Davis also realized it as he concentrated. There was really a thread of elementary Earth Laws floating in his battle aura.
What can he say? He shut his mouth thinking that he was truly frog in a well.
'How come I didn't notice it before?' Davis thought for a moment before another thought popped upon his mind, "That's right! My revolving core has mutated! You think that can make me possibly evolve it into a physique!?"
"Hmm... I noticed it but it is hard to say. The people who have cultivated their physiques are all physiques innately granted through their birth."
"Those who have cultivated physiques artificially are people who are either myths and legends... Not much is known about them as they have all chosen to not spread their secrets."
Davis turned sad, maybe his cultivation might turn out to be weak when compared to these people who possess a physique.
'Then I wonder if Clara has a physique?' He contemplated but ultimately wouldn't know if it was a physique in the first place.
He could only go to the Alstreim Family Territory to check about Clara's Physique.
Even so, Davis still didn't believe in Old Man Garvin's words. It could just be a misguidance or misunderstanding on his part.
"Here, take look at this..." Davis handed over the Tyrant Body Secrets, Body Tempering Cultivation Manual to Old Man Garvin. He possessed a copy of it since he needed to be sure about cultivating to the Gold Stage, after all, it required tempering bone marrow including other parts of the body.
Old Man Garvin sighed and read the cultivation manual with a scrutinizing gaze.
As he read, he muttered from time to time, nodding to the author's viewpoint in the method but then suddenly, his gaze turned solemn and even his face slowly followed suit.
It was quite a while before Old Man Garvin took his eyes off the manual, he turned to Davis as he asked, "Who wrote this?"
