Chapter 210 Special Physique.
As Hao Ren was about to redeem the voucher, he thought about the people back at home, so he focused his thoughts on the Heart-Soul pendant, and he sensed the connection with Han Lingshi. He said, "Lingshi, can you hear me, Love?"
The other party replied, "Yes, I am, are you okay?"
Hao Ren nodded and replied, "I have reached the Spirit Shimmer Continent and at the moment I am with Mei."
Han Lingshi replied with a surprised expression, "Hmm, you reached so soon? It has just been a few minutes here."
Hao Ren raised his brow, and then said, "It could be because of the time flow here. I will ask Mei about it later. Are you okay?"
Han Lingshi replied candidly, "Yes, I am fine, but I am heading for a meeting."
Hao Ren wished her well and told her to eat some of the food inside the space ring. Han Lingshi obliged and the connection was ended.
*Ding: Host, congratulations for gaining a special physique. Would you like to fuse with it?*
Hao Ren was surprised for a second and then asked, "What sort of special physique it is?"
*Ding: It is called the Dragon Titan Physique. This physique will increase your cultivation speed by ten times, and also refined to the peak level, your physical strength alone would be equal to hundred dragons. One punch from you would lay waste to cities.*
Hao Ren was shocked but then he calmed down and began to think about how this physique would be refined. He asked, "How do you suggest that I refine it?"
*Ding: Absorbing beast blood essence, specially elephants, tigers and flood dragons. They will have the most effect on your physique.*
The young man took a deep breath and then decided to approach his sister. Hao Mei was watching Yin cultivate after drinking a cup of wine. The young man asked, "Mei, are special physiques a good thing in this world?"
Hao Mei nodded and said, "Yes, they are. Actually, if someone has a special physique, they would be able to enter a stronger force with ease and gain more cultivation resources to practice as well."
Hao Ren then asked, "Is the flow of time in this world different than what it is back home?"
Hao Mei was surprised that Hao Ren noticed this and said, "Yes, it is ten times faster."
Hao Ren raised his brow and asked, "One day there means ten days here?"
Hao Mei nodded and the young man went to the side, he took a deep breath and sat down on a boulder that amidst the small flowers. Hao Mei sighed and said, "I know it is hard but, I cannot do anything about it."
Hao Ren looked at the young lady and said, "You have been here for five years, that means you are already seventy three years old? Dayum, granny."
Hao Mei narrowed her gaze and took off her shoe before throwing it at Hao Ren. The young man dodged and asked the fuming beauty, "Would you mind telling me your real cultivation level?"
Hao Mei did not hide from him, and replied in a soft voice, "Soul Transformation Realm."
The young man raised his eyebrow and asked, "You maniac, you are almost catching up with the old couple."
Then he toned down and asked, "Have you been walking the edge of life and death constantly? It must have been hard on you right?"
Hao Mei looked at him and then her eyes watered as she shook her head. Hao Ren sighed and looking at the clear sky he said, "I apologize for blaming you needlessly. It was not your fault to play along with them, after all, they were strong. I am sorry, that my emotions became a burden on you."
The young lady was surprised and she appeared next to him before embracing him in her arms. She did not care whether he liked it or not, but she just wanted to hold him. After a few minutes, she finished shedding tears and sighed as she said, "I also apologize, for leaving you alone there. It was probably my punishment to stay here alone all this time."
Hao Ren patted her hand and replied, "It is fine, I am here now. You are not alone. You could have found a nice hunk and gotten married to him, why didn't you?"
Hao Mei shoved him away and said coldly, "I have no time for love, and in this world, love is a mere toy for people. When I came here, many people fancied me, but over time, they found that I was someone without a strong background and so they backed away.
Master wanted me to inherit the sect but for that I need to reach the Dao Integration realm, which is still far away, and since I did not look at people when I was weak, do you think I will let them come to my sect after I become the sect master?"
Hao Ren sighed and said, "You will find a suitable groom one day, I believe in that."
Hao Mei did not say anything but only shook her head. After a few minutes, the siblings distanced each other. Hao Mei was about to refine her eyes and Hao Ren was fusing his spiritual physique.
'System, fuse the physique.'
*Ding: Yes, host, the process will be painful, please bear with it. If you lose you fall unconscious, then the process will start from zero again.*
Hao Ren shivered, and the next moment he almost fainted, the pain was akin to his body being rammed under an industrial hammer. Every inch of his body was aching, his skin was squirming, and his organs were throbbing. The pain had increased so much that the young man wanted to scream but his muscles were spasming.
He fell down from the boulder and onto the ground shivering like a snail being sprayed with salt. In his mind, he was wailing, cursing everything and everyone. He did not even spare the system itself.
What seemed to be the eternity to him, was in reality was just a few seconds, and the progress bar available for him was moving at a crawling speed. After ten minutes it moved to one percent.
...
Hao Mei took an hour to refine the wine and she woke up with Yin & Yang eyes. She turned around and found that Hao Ren was not on the boulder. She walked over to the boulder and found Hao Ren on the ground, covered in blood. She froze up for a second and then reached out to touch him but she was repelled by a strong force.
The young man was not looking good, and Hao Mei was getting anxious. She used her spirit sense to check him and found that Hao Ren's body was changing from inside out. The blood that was pouring out of his pores was being replaced with new blood.
She realized something and mumbled, "Awakening a special physique."
She could not suppress her shock. Just when she was thinking what was going on, Yin, who was sleeping on the side, woke up, her size has increased from as big as a palm, to three meters and she had grown as thick as an adult's forearm.
She slithered around and approached Hao Ren at a quick speed, but she did not touch him. Yin coiled herself and raised her head to look at Hao Ren. Hao Mei noticed a red pattern appearing on the forehead of the white snake.

Yin also looked at her before turning her focus to Hao Ren. The young man held onto his consciousness with the difficulty that could be defined equal to defying heavens. However, after a couple of hours the fusion stopped, and he opened his eyes accompanied by the notification, *Ding: Fusion Complete.*
Hao Ren sat up, and the dried blood on his skin began to crack up and fall around him, just when he was about to stand up, the spiritual energy around him began to manifest into a vortex which gradually turned into a dragon.
Hao Mei mumbled, "Providence Awakening and Evolution."
Then she looked at her brother with an expression which said, 'What a monster.'
The dragon roar shook the world as it revolved around Hao Ren and shot through the heavens. Hao Mei looked at the scene and said, "Fuck. We need to leave or we will be discovered by the old antiques."
Hao Ren did not know much but he knew that he was not strong enough to handle the older experts. He waved his hand and set the valley on fire. Yin transformed back to her real size and moved inside his sleeve, while Hao Mei held him and the two fled the place.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, a few figures and some strong spiritual senses appeared in the void, scanning the valley that had turned to nothing but charred ground. One of them said, "Either a talent has fallen, or a talent is born. If it is the latter, the world is about to change."
