Mountain Sitting Immortal-Chapter 72: Ten Thousand Beast Hunting Center.

Specializing will increase his productivity as he will stop spending time on making wine. He doesn’t like making wine anyway because it is too difficult and labor intensive.

It will also increase his revenue since the wine he makes will be several times more expensive than the wine he bought to make it. As long as the wine he makes is very strong, people will buy it for a high price regardless of the taste even if it is poison capable of killing people.

He was thinking about this as he set up his equipment in a large room on the second floor of his house.

He wasn’t actually doing much. It was the servants and Thompson who were moving the equipment.

His job was to oversee their work and make sure that they didn’t break anything. Despite doing less, his job is the most important.

When everyone was done, he treated them to a meal before they left. Only three people remained after all of them had gone.

These three are his maids. They will be in charge of preparing his food, cleaning the house, washing his clothes, and running errands for him.

With all of that done, he had finally moved into the house.

He clapped his hands and said, "Now that I’m set, what do I do next?"

What he needs to do next is to exercise. It is what he will be spending most of his time on.

But before he can do that, he needs some equipment like weights, a strong sledgehammer, and a large metal block.

The weights are to be attached to his body and worn throughout the day while the combination of sledgehammer and metal block is to train his fighting technique.

Unfortunately, he is no longer at home, so he can’t use his mother’s equipment. He has to go out to buy his own before he can exercise.

So that’s what he did next. He left his building towards the core of the city to buy what he needed.

Actually, there are shops all over the city, and things can be bought anywhere. The things sold at the shops outside of the core of the city will also be cheaper because of lower rent.

But he doesn’t know the city very well, so it is quicker for him to go directly to the core to get what he wants. Besides, walking through the city will also give him the chance to familiarize himself with the city.

The trip took him one hour and thirty minutes to go to the Agate market and return in a carriage with the things he bought.

During the trip, he saw several medicine stores, weapon stores, and technique shops. He also the famous Ten Thousand Beast Hunting Center, where beast carcasses are purchased.

This Ten Thousand Beast Hunting Center is part of the Ten Thousand Beast Hunting Society that spans the Turin kingdom and its environs. They purchase carcasses from hunters and even formed the hunters guild.

Their presence in Agate is one of the reasons why the city is prosperous. People come from all over to join their guild because they are one of the few organizations willing to sell the force diagrams required to transcend the first mortal coil.

One will need to jump through some hoops to buy the force diagram, and it is very expensive, but at least they are willing to sell it without requiring oaths of fealty. That is a good offer in his own opinion.

So he paid attention to the building when he passed it by. According to his plan, he will join the hunter’s guild soon. It is a plan that his mother agrees with, so he is fairly certain that it is a good idea.

He returned home with the equipment he bought and exercised himself to the bone. By training in the fighting technique, he can make progress in all three techniques at the same time since he needs the three of them to work together in order to smash the sledgehammer against the metal block.

He does this training every day. It is why he has made so much progress.

He has to give some credit to his mother for her support in terms of training assistance and daily pills.

Lady Delia also deserves some credit for granting him the second part of the mana techniques. Thanks to training with these advanced versions of the mana techniques, his proficiency didn’t stop at 50%, and his training is faster than those at the training facility.

The trainees in the training facility only receive the basic part of the mana techniques. So it is very difficult for them to go beyond a mastery of 50%.

But thanks to Lady Delia, he was able to reach a mastery above 70%, and he will be able to reach 90% easily.

Coupled with his constant intake of blood pills and his daily training, he will be able to overcome the second bottleneck and break through to the seventh transformation easily.

His immediate plan is to join the hunter’s guild once he reaches the seventh transformation. Then he will begin to work towards acquiring the force diagram, which he will need once he reaches the ninth transformation and a mastery of 90%.

Those two checkpoints are where the last great bottleneck for the humans is at the body forging stage. He will need the force diagram to become capable of utilizing 100% of his body’s power and transcending the first mortal coil.

Without the force diagram, it is possible for him to make the breakthrough on his own. But it will require a lot of time and effort.

For most of the populace, they can’t make the breakthrough on their own. 99.9% of humans will be stuck at the ninth transformation without a force diagram.

Only the genius will be able to break through on their own. That’s how the first humans transcended the first mortal coil.

They didn’t have the force diagram, so they had to rely on themselves. It was after those geniuses reached the second mortal coil that force diagrams began to appear.
