It was quite normal, as it was a huge forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The system said that this was a Material Treasure Realm, so that means there are a lot of herbs, ores, and other precious resources.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a glowing screen appeared in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Congratulations on entering your first Treasure Realm]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Reward Unlocked: Storage Space]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked, grinning, seeing the reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Storage Space? Perfect. I don’t have to carry everything, and it will be easy to avoid the others’ eyes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was a problem. Garion wasn’t that knowledgeable about which herbs were valuable in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s grab everything that looks weird, colorful, or rare. In the worst case, I get useless weeds, but in the best case, I get something good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he started grabbing anything that looked interesting to him: blue leaves, glowing mushrooms, and flowers with flame-shaped petals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, Garion put them all into his new storage space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before long, the ground shook, making Garion quickly turn his head only to spot some massive beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked like boars, but larger than what he remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its body was as tall as a horse with deadly curved tusks on their head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked, cracking his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect. Let’s see just how much stronger I have become in this world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boar snorted and charged, aiming its tusks straight at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion sidestepped, grabbed a hold of one tusk, and twisted his body, using the beast’s momentum to slam it to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boar squealed, but before it could react, Garion jumped on top of it and directly drove his elbow down its skull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bam. Bam. Bam\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the third strike, the boar’s head was bleeding, and it didn’t move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stood up, dusting his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s it? Just three hits and you’re done? Damn. I’m really stronger than I thought.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mana is a really perfect supplement, better than any other steroid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But another boar quickly glared at him in anger. It pawed the ground, then charged at full speed faster than the last one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion only grinned, standing his ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright. Let’s test this properly. Hit me with your best shot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast rammed into him. Garion blocked with both arms, sliding back a few steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arms trembled slightly, but he held firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad. You’re quite strong, but if this is only your power, then... You’re toast!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion bent his knees, hooked his arms under the boar’s tusks, and tried to lift the heavy boar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His muscles bulged as he forced it. For a moment, it kicked wildly, squealing in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Garion twisted and slammed it into the ground hard, followed by elbows to its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he used four hits before the boar’s legs stopped twitching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stood, stretching his back with a frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn. You’re too heavy. My back is hurting just from lifting you. Guess I’m still not as crazy or as powerful as I thought.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dropped to the ground, sitting cross-legged. He started his unique cultivation method, healing his spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few breaths, he exhaled with relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Much Better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He placed both boar corpses into his storage space and turned toward the deeper area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, let’s continue. Let’s take everything inside this Treasure Realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bit deeper in the forest, a rocky area could be found, and in the middle of this rocky area, there was a huge dark cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, the sound of clashing steel and shouting could be heard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were dozens of cultivators who had previously gathered in this cave and fought each other to get the special materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The special materials here were called Titan Ores. Despite the grand name, it wasn’t world-shattering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn’t grant infinite strength or summon titans. Its property was quite simple. The more mana you poured into it, the heavier it became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they were quite simple, weapons forged with them could crush enemies with sheer force alone, making them valuable tools for creating heavy weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, everyone in the cave wanted them and fought each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One man swung his swords around in wide arcs while shouting angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back off! This Titan Ore belongs to my Steel Fang Sect!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another one snarled at him, wrapping his fist with mana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You? Don’t make me laugh! You weaklings can’t even lift it once it’s mined!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many cultivators punched, kicked, and slashed at one another, fighting tooth and nail for the precious ores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time a fragment broke free, three or four hands quickly rushed for it, and someone usually ended up bleeding on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Garion had just arrived there, pulled by the loud sound from inside the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He entered the cave and saw multiple cultivations fighting each other. He slowly approached them and listened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Titan Ore is mine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Drop it, weakling. You can’t even lift it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Over my dead body!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s ears perked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Titan Ore? Heavy Ore?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From those keywords, he quickly knew that the ores were called titan ores and were really heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect. This stuff should make excellent dumbbells and barbells.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truthfully, in all these months, Garion hadn’t actually made any proper gym equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone in the world told him that forging the equipment he wanted was too hard, too costly, and required special materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, he actually found one, and it’s quite perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I can take them all, I’ll be able to make heavier weights than the ones in my old world. Just imagining lifting it already made me drool.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system had also promised him a new function if he managed to get all the treasures here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe the second function can help him get or build one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Either way, I need every last piece of this ore. No scraps left for these fakers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, Garion went straight to the middle of the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would show them the true strength of a real martial artist in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>",1003,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.261Z",1,"novelbin.me","2c9f284d39b90d06005d8463368354c8816d5743ef93992f8b3fcf543e666060","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-11","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-9",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
