It’s not that it’s wrong, but... It’s too difficult.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, suddenly, a thought crossed his mind as he remembered something Garion had told them earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Question everything. Don’t just follow blindly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden’s eyes widened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clenched his fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master said we don’t have to follow exactly. Maybe there’s another way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought hard for a few minutes, whispering under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master’s method focuses on transforming all cells at once... but that can’t be the only way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath and smiled faintly to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then... I’ll try with my own method.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of forcing himself to imagine his entire body, Arden focused on only one cell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just one. Let’s start with only one cell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes and imagined all the mana inside his body flowing toward one single cell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minutes passed, then an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden’s breathing slowed, his face relaxed, and the air around him began to shift slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two hours later, he finally opened his eyes, a small smile formed on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up quietly and walked toward Garion, who was standing at the front, watching everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master... I... I did it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked. \"Did what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden smiled weakly. \"I’ve managed to transform my cell into a mana pool cell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room fell silent as several disciples gasped in shock, including Garion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait... what did you just say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said... I did it,\" Arden repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One of my cells has become a mana pool cell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stared at him in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Already? That’s impossible...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped closer, studying Arden carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even Dahlia and I needed days to manage to create a single mana pool cell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden looked down, rubbing the back of his neck shyly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s true, Master. But... I didn’t follow the same way you taught.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Different how?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You told us to question everything. Not to follow blindly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion crossed his arms, nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I did.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So,\" Arden continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wondered... do I really have to transform all my cells at once? What if I just focused on one at a time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s eyes narrowed with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At first, I thought of the red blood cells, but they’re just carriers. Then I thought about bone marrow cells, but they already make mana-blood, and I didn’t want to burden them with two jobs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed to his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, I decided on the heart, so I focused on one heart cell and channeled all the mana I could into it to fill and temper it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples leaned in, listening carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After about two hours, that single cell changed. I became a mana pool cell... no, a perfect one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden clenched his fist in excitement as he continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was full, stable, and flawless. When it formed, I could feel it clearly, like it was glowing inside me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion was silent for a moment, eyes wide in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he exhaled and muttered, \"Unbelievable...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked back at Arden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me guess. After that, your mana pool heart cell started to absorb mana on its own, right? And then... it began to split.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden’s mouth fell open sligtly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion grinned as he continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The new cell probably ate another heart cell and replaced it, didn’t it? And then it repeated the process.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden nodded quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly! That’s what happened!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion let out a laugh. A loud and proud one, echoing through the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha! Amazing, Arden! You’ve done what I didn’t even think to try!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other disciples stared at Arden in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He really did it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In just two hours?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s insane!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion grinned wider.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, instead of changing your whole body at once... you’re evolving it cell by cell. It’s slower in the area but faster in progress and self-sustaining.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden scratched his cheek awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess so, Master. Once it started, it felt like it didn’t need me anymore. The new cell just kept absorbing mana and creating another one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion laughed again, clapping him on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good! Really good, Arden! You’ve just found a second method, the split growth path. A passive vultivation route born from your intelligence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden blushed, lowering his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... just followed what made sense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And that’s exactly why you’re my direct disciple. You think, not just obey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples around them were still whispering in amazement. Some looked sinpserd, some overwhelmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion turned to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Learn from Arden. Don’t just copy. Understand it. That’s the essence of the[God Physique Cultivation Art].\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden smiled shyly again, stretching the back of his neck. he couldn’t help but feel proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, he wasn’t the timid one anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion looked at him with genuine pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve done it well, kid. Keep going. At this rate... you’ll surpass even Dahlia soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"M-Master, don’t say that, she’ll kill me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion laughed hard, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha! Then train fast enough to survive her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other disciples burst into laughter, the tension melting away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the laughter faded, Garion crossed his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then, genius. Since you’ve discovered a new approach, you’ll help the others understand it too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"M-Me? Teach them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why not? You figured it out. Now make sure the rest don’t melt their brains trying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples chuckled again as Arden scratched the back of his head, embarrassed but nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, everyone, listen up. I’ll explain how I did it. Just focus on one cell first...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others leaned forward, listening carefully, and this sight made Garion really happy.\u003C\u002Fp>",1056,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.542Z",1,"novelbin.me","787e3f479669fb4e86fc0c7e30c0a07b915ac4aa82764ae8bbc35e6a8a14e116","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-447","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-93",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
