A Failure's hopeful Journey

Chapter 323: Recasting.



Chapter 323: Recasting.

You Xi Wang sat on the boulder with his eyes closed. The first thing he had to do before recasting his skin was to shed off the old one. The process was unlike something he had read in novels in his old life. 

The novels showed how people will temper the skin inch by inch in such processes. However, here, the process of casting the tempered skin was very gory. He will have to cast a scalpel with the spirit energy. This scalpel must contain the purest of the energy that a practitioner can refine and then slowly cut off his skin leaving nothing but the skeleton. 

No methods must be used to avoid the pain, the genitals were to be removed as well and then recast with the spirit energy. Imagine the guts it will take for a person to do that. However, the genitals can be avoided. 

But everything comes at a cost, if the person did not perform the procedure on his/her germ organs, then their body will have a weak spot, this weak spot will prohibit them from moving ahead on their cultivation path. If they took a step forward to the Dao Formation realm, they will most likely end up in a mound of ash when the heavenly tribulation falls upon them.

You Xi Wang did not wish for something like this to happen. Other than the pain, there were many factors that could kill a person, blood loss, dementia during the shedding, the wrong cut injuring the dantian, meridians, or the soul sea. External disturbance. One thing that could be seen as the consolation was that the spirit beast companion did not suffer even if they shared a bond of equality. 

Taking a deep breath the boy calmed down, he first prepared the ways to reduce the risks he would face. He asked the system to use his soul force in a regulated manner to control the blood flowing out the body. He cannot allow himself to die from blood loss. The next thing was to mark the pathways of the meridian, dantian, and soul sea using the spirit energy. 

This way when he would be using the scalpel he will not be making any mistakes. The cave he settled in was closed with a huge boulder. None of the people were allowed to break in no matter what they heard, or sensed. They were not allowed to inspect the situation with spirit sense. 

Maya was sitting in front of the cave door to guard him against all this, the boy had also cast a few high-level isolation barriers and spirit gathering arrays inside the cave. That done, the process began. He condensed a fine scalpel with his holy spirit energy. Then manipulated the scalpel with the resonance of the spirit energy to have off his hair. 

The hair was shaved off relatively easily. What followed, later on, was more gruesome and it required a strong resolve to see it through. You Xi Wang had made up his mind when he was outside that the next time he would face his people he will be stronger. It was not only him who liked to keep his family and friends together. 

The rest of the people were similar to him in this aspect. You Zhichi will never take a step into the threshold of Nirvana Rebirth if he did not. When Yuki said that she and the others in his harem will commit suicide, You Zhichi did not come forward but her intent was similar to them and if he did have a misfortunate accident then she will not even think and just kill herself.  This breakthrough was You Xi Wang's death parade training. 

The scalpel moved and took off a piece from his scalp. The scalpel did not only made cuts on the surface but also used a fine spirit thread to tear off the skin from the bones. The first place was the scalp. You Xi Wang had his face covered in blood and he looked completely appalling. Half of his head was just white bone. 

The pain was so much that he had his jaws clenched. He did not let out a sound from his mouth and kept tearing off the skin from his body slowly. An inch per move. The process was slow but he had to endure as well. The reason he went slow was to be able to withstand the pain in his body. 

After three days his upper body was completely a skeleton. He has just finished removing the last shred of flesh on his little finger on his right hand. The system aided him to make him stand up so that he can remove the flesh on his legs and waist with ease. 

You Xi Wang now did not have any eyelids to cover his eyes, he could see the mound of flesh in the floor below and the blood streaming into his organs through a network of invisible veins. The boy did not stop after he saw this sight and became even more decisive. 

Another three days passed, now what sat over the boulder was a white skeleton. He had no skin left over his body and was in a state where he understood why sometimes death was better than life. He had never thought why the people begged him for death but at this moment he himself begged himself for death.

Now the cultivation entered the mouse crucial stage, to recast the skin and everything else, such as muscles, veins, capillaries. If he missed any single detail, then he will be dead in this pathetic state. A huge amount of holy spirit energy wisps gathered and engulfed the mound of flesh together mashing and mixing it like a cement mix. 

Slowly the flesh vanished becoming one with the spirit energy. The boy controlled the spirit energy to cover his body slowly. As soon as the holy spirit touched his skeleton form it gave him a sense of relief, however the process of recasting has just begun.
