Chapter 146: Forced Cultivation

"Alright, train by yourself for now. I don't think there is anything you will need me for tonight, so I will come back at 3 AM." After saying that, Wen Cheng left the training hall.

Alex didn't know what to do, so he decided to let out Pearl.

"Come out, Pearl." With a bright shine of light, Pearl appeared in front of him. "Meoow"

"You are not sleepy, are you?" he asked. "Meow," Pearl seemed to say 'no'.

"Alright then. I will practice my techniques for a while. As for you, you can… uhh," Alex was stumped for a moment on what to make Pearl do. He wanted Pearl to practice as well, but he was still a child. He thought a bit more and came up with something.

"You can use your cultivation method to cultivate a bit more," Alex said.

"Meow," the little cat had no idea what cultivate was. "Uhh… you don't know? But it says you have a cultivation technique now in your status." Alex was a bit confused.

"Hmm… maybe it's like mine and you have to meditate? But can cats even meditate? Let's see, normal monsters just absorb the Qi in the surrounding to get stronger, or occasionally eat other monster's cores to improve."

"Sigh, just try to meditate for now and see what happens." Alex gave up in the end and went with his first choice.

"Meow," the cat was even more confused.

"Ah, just close your eyes and breathe slowly," Alex explained what meditating meant.

The cat did as asked and closed its eyes to meditate. He watched to see if anything would happen. Nothing happened for the first minute, but after a few, Pearl's fur started glowing a little white.

Slowly, the white turned to yellow, which then turned to golden as time went on. Suddenly, as soon as the radiating light turned golden, Alex felt a small thump inside him. Then, came a flood of notifications.

<Pearl has started using "????? ?????'s Dominating body">

<Cultivation is now being shared>

<Cultivation Method is not compatible with human physiology>

<Cultivation technique is compatible with your Sun God's Divine Yang Body>

<Cultivation technique is not compatible with human meridians>

<Cultivation technique is compatible with your 5 Elemental Yin-Yang roots>

<You are now forcefully cultivating "????? ?????'s Dominating Body>

"AHHHH!!" Suddenly, a massive pain coursed through Alex's body that brought him to his knees and then to his ground. His scream was loud enough that if there weren't any soundproof formations set in the training hall, people could probably hear it all the way from down at the sect crater.

The pain was the worst kind of pain Alex had ever felt. Even worse than when he ate the Yang Jade or when he had to fight that wolf to protect pearl and his mother.

Pain pricked all over his skin and organ as it felt like he was surrounded by thousands of needles pricking every part of his body, and it was somehow amplified by a hundred times. Even his organs started to hurt.

'What is going on?' he could barely form a thought as the relentless pain attacked him. He tried to open his eyes to see what was happening around him, but even his eyes and eyelids hurt a lot.

The only thing he couldn't feel pain in was his brain. So, he slowly let out his spiritual sense, barely able to concentrate on it. He tried to look at what was happening.

'WHAT!!' he was shocked to see that numerous wounds were opening and closing all over his body. His skins split, muscles torn, bones micro fractured, organs tearing up, meridians constantly damaged and even his brain was bleeding somewhat.

But as soon as those happened, they were also healed. His split skin shut tight, his torn muscle's reattached, his fractured bones reformed, teared up organs regrew, meridians healed and the brain stopped bleeding as if nothing had ever happened to it.

He tried to send his thoughts to Pearl. But the pain was too much for him to do such a specific task right now. He lost all focus and his spiritual sense retreated to himself.

"Ahhhh," he was still shouting. His pain lasted a while. Whether it was long or short was irrelevant to him. For him, the pain lasted an eternity.

Finally, after some time, he started to grow a little accustomed to the pain, or even numb to it. He resisted the urge to let go of all thought and scream once more and sent out his spiritual sense to pearl.

"Stop Pearl!," he shouted directly into Pearl's head. Pearl was way too focused on cultivating and didn't hear any of the shoutings Alex had done the past however long it had been.

"Stop!," he screamed once more using his spiritual sense.

Pearl suddenly opened his eyes, color fading from his body. "Meow?" he said as he looked at Alex who was down on the ground.

As soon as pearl stopped cultivating, the pain finally went away. The remaining wounds on his body slowly healed and within a minute, he was back to normal with no more pain running across his body.

HUFF HUFF

He wanted to speak out, but he couldn't form any words to speak. The experience was just too traumatizing. Only after a few minutes did he manage to string up a few words to form a sentence, "What happened to me?"

His eyes still had a hard time focusing when he remembered the notifications that he had read. "Pearl forcefully cultivated me?" he was beyond dumbfounded at what he remembered reading.

"But how could he force me to cultivate along with me? What is going on?" he was very confused as to what had happened just now. Still breathing heavily, he remembered something.

"Oh wait. what about that 'sharing' thing mentioned in Pearl's info?" he wondered as he looked up Pearl's status.

[White Cat (Child) - Bonded

Name: Pearl

Cultivation Base: Skin Tempering 9th Realm

Evolution Chance: 40%

When he saw Pearl's status, he was surprised.

"Huh? Did you breakthrough already?"
