Chapter 70: A painful night

Kritos was fully immersed in his own world.

It was like he forgets the way to return to the real world. 

In front of Kritos, a man was continuously exhibiting many moves. All the twenty moves of the Earth Swallowing technique were perfectly done by the imaginary man.

Earlier Kritos could not be bothered watching John Augusta's movements after a while. It was because John Augusta could only barely match a few of the moves. And it was those moves that Kritos realized lacked a certain charm!

From this point, Kritos realized something. He closed his eyes and began pondering.

However, Kritos notices that his imagination is far more realistic than before. It looks like a genuine movement taught by Captain Mitchell.

Moreover, Kritos observed that he can clearly see and easily catch every single detail of every move.

In Kritos's mind, Captain Mitchell's movements were repeated again and again like a movie.

However, in this move, the imaginary man often slightly changes some movement.

Perfect!

Kritos believes the twenty moves of the Earth swallowing Technique taught by Captain Mitchell are now inferior to the twenty moves upgraded by the imaginary man.

After watching the movement of the imaginary man, Kritos felt that the charm and elegance of those movements were out of this world. 

After breaking through to the Apprentice Realm, Kritos's five senses were extremely keen. Although Captain Mitchell's movements were quick, Kritos easily managed to learn and gain some insight after he saw those movements two times.

Furthermore, Kritos felt that his innate trait, Heavenly Glare, has assisted him to gain insight. 

Also after evolving into High Human, he had very high perceptivity. His eyes had been nourished by both evolution and his meridians, making the motion of Captain Mitchell that was replicated in his mind even clearer. The outer form first came together, and slowly each move began to emit that charm. 

Kritos realized that the enhanced twenty moves of the Earth Swallowing Technique were extremely mysterious. He could copy and can perform Captain Mitchell's twenty moves easily but the enhanced moves were too hard.

Also, the way to learn the Earth Swallowing Technique is weird.

First, one had to eat hard-to-digest and impossible to excrete food. Next, they had to use this set of mysterious moves to train their stomach and intestines.

These moves, if one paid attention to the poses, would have their charm reduced.

If one wanted to reflect the charm, then the poses would no longer be accurate.

It was a fascinating mystic technique!

It wasn't time to think about this. Kritos began to reach out his hands according to his memories. 

Suddenly, Kritos began to move. With his eyes slightly closed, and without any sense of direction, he began to demonstrate the exact movements of Captain Mitchell using the mysterious feelings in his memories.

One by one, Kritos's train of thought became clearer, and his speed increased.

People who were looking at Kritos only saw a blurred shadow of him!

Captain Mitchell's eyes suddenly lit up and a shocked expression appeared on his face.

"W-What?"

Kritos managed to simulate a trace of the charm of the Earth Swallowing Technique in his first practice! This had nothing to do with one's practice or physique. Only a person's perceptivity mattered.

The difficulty of the Earth Swallowing Technique was its comprehension. It took Captain Mitchell a long while to understand the charms behind the Earth Swallowing Technique. He too had suffered from eating Stone powder back in his day.

This kid! He Had an exceptionally perceptive mind! 

In his first try, he almost faultlessly executed the moves. 

"Well, his talent and senses could easily match with the Kingdom ten miracles but he is far away from those monsters. Sigh! After just glimpsing their movements, I felt that our Elite Royal force foundation technique is child play."

As for the men from the three Clans, they were all shocked at Kritos's movements. They did not understand the mystery behind the Earth Swallowing Technique, but no matter how dumb they were, they knew that Kritos wasn't doing it haphazardly. Because they too perceived an incomprehensible illusion from Kritos's movements!

"This… This kid… " The men were stunned. They did not need to judge if Kritos's moves were accurate. From Captain Mitchell's eyes and expression, they knew they had to accept more frustrating reality. Kritos could easily perform the Earth Swallowing Technique on the first try!

"How could this be. This boy born from a low caste managed to learn Captain Mitchell's movements after he demonstrated it twice?" James did not know how many times Captain Mitchell had demonstrated the moves. They only saw his figure blur twice, hence they had concluded that he had done it twice.

"He actually learned such a difficult move?" Many surrounding clan members found it unacceptable. They had always been condescending, and deep down, they felt they were the ruling class of the Rewa city. A villager can't compare to them.

But today, an inferior plebeian had climbed over their heads, suppressing them greatly. What more, it is rumored that he is the legendary Late one.

The condensing qi ball and lifting big stones, which they were proud of, was worthless in the eyes of Captain Mitchell, but they could not learn a thing he taught them.

Even the bright star of their clan, John Augusta was suppressed by Kritos!

James clenched his fists. A deep sense of anger and frustration burned in his eyes. This sense of frustration slowly turned into fear! 

"No, I'll just stay away from him. We don't have much enmity between us. Hope he will forget about me." James thought 

Kritos repeatedly performed the twenty movements of the Earth Swallowing Technique. For an unknown reason, it was extremely energy-depleting and he can't perfect it. In Kritos's semi-conscious state, he repeated the moves five times before he felt exhausted!

Kritos remember and understand those movements, even the enhanced one but practically performing them is a bit hard.

Kritos opened his eyes and felt his abdomen burning, it was as if a fire had lit up!

Large amounts of blood and energy were supplied to his stomach in a surging fashion!

A normal person would have their blood flow to their stomachs after a meal. This was to aid the digestive process.

Kritos was in a similar situation, just magnified a hundred times.

He felt that if he wished, his entire body's blood could be condensed within his stomach. Even metal nails and glass could be digested!

The bloated feeling from eating the Stone powder had completely vanished. Under the strong peristalsis within his stomach, the coagulated Stone powder had already been separated.

Captain Mitchell suddenly said, "For this Earth Swallowing Technique, eating stone powder is just the beginning stage. If you meet the criteria, you can even try eating materials with devastating energies or treasures that are extremely difficult to digest. The effects of practicing the skill will be better."

These words were only for Kritos. From Captain Mitchell's point of view, only he had the ability to become a true peerless expert.

"Alas! He was too late to awaken the soul beast. Even the late one mostly takes a year. But, his talent is amazing. I believe by joining the Elite Royal force, he would surely become an expert."

Mitchell glanced at Kritos and delightfully smiled. He knows it will be a matter of time before Kritos perfects the twenty movements. 

"I will do it again. The speed will be much slower. Look carefully. To be able to identify the charm of the Earth Swallowing Technique will all depend on yourself!" Captain Mitchell said as he doesn't have time to waste with them.

With that, Captain Mitchell began moving again.

He really slowed down, but he was still unable to get through to James and company.

The result for that night was wailings from the toilets of the Clans.

Some people say that the most painful thing in life is the failure to find a bathroom when experiencing diarrhea. They would eventually have to sh*t in their pants.

But for James and company, what would this be called?

Only those who experienced what James was feeling will know that even sh*tting in their pants was extreme bliss.

That night, the doctors in the Rewa city boiled a huge pot of laxatives. Every member who swallowed the Stone powder drank it, but they still could not succeed in excreting what they consumed out.

As a last resort, they had to follow Captain 's words. They used their fingers to dig. When they realized their fingers were not long enough, they used bamboo sticks.

As for bamboo sticks being inserted into their rectum…

That feeling was… "heavenly".

In fact, using a bamboo stick to dig was not easy. It was an extremely difficult task for an individual because they could not see.

As a last resort, they had to "help" one another. They had to reveal their ass, getting a brother to help…

That scene was so perfect that Kritos didn't want to think about it.

To be able to bust ass for a comrade was nothing. But to help a comrade dig out sh*t, that would be true love.

Just listening to the shrill cries, one could imagine the carnage happening. The bamboo sticks might have dug through something…

While all of them are experiencing heavenly pleasure, Kritos is silently absorbing the moon's essence through his window.
