His skin turned pitch-black, flaking away like burnt paper, only to reveal a new, tougher layer beneath it moments later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was burned, shattered, and reconstructed, over and over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then something unexpected happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his every cell absorbed and converted the lightning, his [Adaptive Mind] trait — the ability that let him evolve and learn from everything, began to interact with his cultivation method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The combination was... unnatural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every cell in Yu Xuan’s body acted like a miniature generator, pulling energy from the lightning, processing it, and using it to refine itself. The process became self-sustaining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A perpetual cycle was created.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A passive cultivation loop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xuan’s very body had learned to cultivate on its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Heaven had known what it was creating, perhaps it would have stopped the tribulation right there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yu Xuan didn’t realize it yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was lost in the rhythm of the storm, his mind blank, his body and spirit harmonizing with the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somewhere in the middle of the lightning, his consciousness slipped into an epiphany.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart stilled. His breath calmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Heavens were not merciful enough to let him linger there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden lightning abruptly ceased, and before Yu Xuan could even open his eyes, the thunderclouds shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They turned ethereal, rippling like a veil of smoke.
