At the Dojo of Limits in Hongning Base City, after Qin Hao entered the main gate, he was led directly to the study by a staff member.
Upon entering the study, Qin Hao began to study frantically. Although his strength had been rapidly improving in the few months since he became a warrior, many problems were exposed. The most important were some foundational and systematic accumulations, which might not have a significant impact now, but would become limiting factors in his future growth.
Although he had a golden finger, he still relied on himself. From learning various theoretical knowledge to watching and referencing various secret manuals, and then comprehending Hong's cultivation experience, combined with his own growth and cultivation plan, Qin Hao was constantly improving his understanding of cultivation and perfecting his cultivation plan.
Currently, Qin Hao's cultivation was also gradually changing and continuously adjusting. He still went out hunting every day, constantly converting his cultivation achievements into combat power. In this month, Qin Hao also fought against many lord-level monsters, from initial low-level lords to mid-level lords, and even a high-level lord once.
When not going out, he studied theory in the morning and trained frantically in the gravity room in the afternoon.
“Hoo, hah” Inside the gravity room, Qin Hao, wearing only shorts and bare-chested, continued his training. The screen next to him displayed “100g,” meaning the current gravity in the gravity room was 100 times Earth's gravity.
Under high gravity, Qin Hao's figure constantly flickered and moved, every punch and kick he unleashed was full of power.
During this period, Qin Hao did not fully focus his energy on practicing blade techniques and movement techniques, but continued to cultivate ancient martial arts such as Inner Force and Chinese martial arts. The martial arts on Earth now are all based on ancient martial arts from various places.
In the past, although Qin Hao had also practiced ancient martial arts, most of what was circulated on the market was very basic, or even incomplete. The true secret manuals of ancient martial arts were still in the hands of a few people. Hong was clearly one of those few.
In Hong's study, there was a specially categorized collection of ancient martial arts secret manuals, hundreds of them, plus numerous explanations, which truly opened Qin Hao's eyes. Among these manuals, the explanations on strength and internal force, as well as the theories on physical training, all gave Qin Hao a fresh perspective.
In particular, the combination of some traditional theories with modern medicine and martial arts cultivation greatly benefited Qin Hao.
Now, Qin Hao's cultivation was reformulated based on these cultivation experiences. Through the high pressure of gravity and the training methods of traditional martial arts, Qin Hao continuously mastered his body and rapidly assimilated the essence of vegetation and dragon blood power involved.
After several weeks of cultivation, Qin Hao's strength had reached the standard of a Mid-level God of War. However, the two powers involved were also gradually exhausted.
“Increase gravity by 50 times,” as Qin Hao's voice sounded, the surrounding gravity suddenly increased, reaching 150 times. Although he had adapted to 100 times gravity, 150 times gravity was still a great pressure for Qin Hao. With simple movements of his body, sweat continuously flowed out, and Qin Hao felt as if his bones were creaking.
“This shouldn't be the limit. Although 150 times gravity is strong, in the original work, Luo Feng, at the Planetary Level, could withstand over a thousand times gravity. Even upon entering the Elite Training Camp, the gravity was 9 times right from the start.” Qin Hao thought while slowly practicing ancient martial arts Tai Chi.
Although there is only one level difference between a God of War and a Planetary Level, the gap in both strength and physical quality is far beyond imagination. Firstly, a Planetary Level can fly and has established his own field. Secondly, the awakening of the Planetary Level physique is also a huge transformation. Furthermore, the speed at which a Planetary Level devours cosmic energy is far greater than that of a God of War.
Qin Hao had been frequently increasing gravity in leaps and bounds these past few days, with a very simple goal: to once again pursue and surpass the limit.
Before he became a Quasi-warrior, although he frequently entered extreme states and even broke through a limit once, after becoming a warrior, Qin Hao's cultivation never relaxed, and he continuously increased the intensity of his cultivation, yet he never broke through the limit again.
The goal of entering the Elite Training Camp was also to use the gravity room to break through the limit once more and achieve another leap in strength. This time, when he made his conditions, choosing to use the gravity room had the same purpose.
Precisely because of this, Qin Hao had been continuously challenging his limits these past few days, constantly increasing gravity in leaps and bounds to put greater pressure on himself.
However, a hundred times gravity was still within the tolerable range for a God of War. Although the pressure was immense these past few days, Qin Hao was also continuously adapting to the gravity, assimilating the power within his body, and increasing his strength.
Over the next month, Qin Hao continued to cultivate methodically, constantly adapting to the gravity room, accumulating experience, engaging in practical combat, and strengthening his theoretical knowledge.
By the end of October, Qin Hao's ranking successfully reached the first position in the Elite Training Camp. Although his explosive power did not break through, his Trial Tower level did improve, reaching 4.3.
For Qin Hao, the biggest change this month was the growth of his theoretical and practical experience. He gained new insights into movement techniques and blade techniques. On the path to perfection, Qin Hao was already able to master them more freely and gradually form his own style.
This style was not an artistic conception or a domain, but Qin Hao's further understanding of movement techniques and blade techniques. In his previous cultivation, although Qin Hao improved very quickly, he felt a bit like he was forcing the pace, a bit superficial. However, in this month, his foundation gradually became more solid.
In addition, Qin Hao also gradually approached his limit. Under the high pressure of the gravity room, Qin Hao's adaptation to the gravity room gradually reached its maximum, and he gradually approached the limit during the training process.
Now, Qin Hao once again entered the state of exhaustion, where his mind and body reached their peak, just like when he was making a push to become a Quasi-warrior.
After entering this state, Qin Hao's heart became even more excited, and he trained even harder every day. However, although he found the extreme state, and his strength increased gradually, he had not yet found the state of breaking through the limit.
In the following months, Qin Hao's training intensity continuously increased, constantly approaching the limit, but he never reached the state of breaking through the limit. After absorbing the essence of vegetation and dragon blood to break through to Mid-level God of War in October, his improvement in the subsequent two months, although much higher than others, was relatively limited.
“It seems unlikely I’ll break through to Senior War God before the New Year,” Qin Hao thought while cultivating in the gravity room. Luo Feng reached Senior War God within a few months of entering the Dojo of Limits, and now he, with his cheat, couldn't even compare.
