396: Exercise the body
The Dream World, a few minutes ago!
Tang Ku strode toward Hooke. It must be said that his performance was truly terrifying; he actually managed to walk on the metal floor as if he were walking on a Simmons mattress.
Under more than twenty times Earth's gravity, Tang Ku moved completely freely, which nearly scared Hooke to death.
Furthermore, Pigsy, whom he had kidnapped, had escaped, and the others were nowhere to be found. Except for the aonei luosi before him, the entire situation had already slipped out of his control.
He really, really did not like this feeling!
Even under these circumstances, Tang Ku's speed could still reach supersonic levels. It looked like he was walking slowly, but in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Hooke. This heavy punch slammed directly into his face, leaving Hooke without even a chance to dodge.
Boom!
The arrogant Disciple of Darwin was sent flying once again, and this punch was even heavier than the last, almost deforming his entire face.
"Do you know? The more similar this world is to the original world, the more damage you will sustain!"
Tang Ku cracked his knuckles and chuckled, "After all, if this were an ordinary dream, perhaps your Physical Body would be injured due to a reflex, but you would definitely not feel such intense pain as you do now!"
Barely managing to crawl up, half of Hooke's face had turned charred black and looked as shriveled as a zombie's. It turned out that Tang Ku's strength was too great and his punch speed too fast, which had actually generated intense heat on his face, causing him severe injury.
However, although this place simulated external conditions, it was ultimately a dream based on reality. Here, as its controller, Hooke actually had a certain degree of autonomous authority, so he could mobilize all the energy and resources here to repair himself.
Therefore, his injuries were constantly recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, at this moment, he glared at the Tang Ku before him with eyes wide enough to split, gritting his teeth as he increased the gravity applied to Tang Ku to thirty times...
Hum... Boom!
The ground was instantly crushed by this force, creating a jagged deep pit. The metal floor caved downward, a pitch-black deep hole appeared before them, and Tang Ku was currently inside that deep pit.
This time, Tang Ku finally wasn't dealing with it so easily.
Thirty times Earth's gravity was equivalent to increasing his body weight by thirty times. In other words, his body weight instantly became over two tons. This moment made it almost impossible for him to take a step; it seemed difficult even to move.
His body kept bending and sinking, almost kneeling on the ground. Tang Ku secretly gritted his teeth, cursing Hooke thoroughly in his mind.
"Damn it, this guy is a tough nut to crack. Thirty times gravity, he actually thought of doing this..."
Veins bulged on Tang Ku's neck. He gritted his teeth and thought to himself, "Relying solely on Physical Body strength is still a bit of a stretch... Hmm, no, I must... I must hold on. Once I unleash power that exceeds the rules of this world, I will... I will be teleported out... Heh, you bastard, since you can't kill Buddha in one go, I will hold out against you to the end!"
Hum!
A surge of conviction rose in his heart. Tang Ku actually forced himself to start straightening up, stiffening his neck, and began... doing squats?
That's right, he wanted to use the opportunity of moving to force himself to adapt to the gravity before him!
One, two, three...
Tang Ku, who hadn't sweated in a long time, was actually sweating, and sweat poured down like rain. However, his movements became faster and faster during the activity. From the initial difficulty, he became gradually accustomed to it, and could even start doing squats freely... And this had only taken a dozen seconds.
Although he still couldn't make large movements—every time he swung his arms, he felt as if the muscles on his shoulders were about to tear—Tang Ku still gritted his teeth and held on, allowing himself to gradually adapt to this force.
Meanwhile, Hooke on the ground was already dumbfounded, because the strongest gravity he could exert was only thirty times. If he added any more, he would have to pay with his own lifespan.
He dared not increase the gravity any further because the power he was manipulating now already exceeded his own limits. He could only, like Tang Ku, grit his teeth and hold on, waiting to see who would be the first to break.
However, what he never expected was that Tang Ku actually started exercising continuously in this pit. Although they were just many simple movements, such as some simple gymnastics, every movement he made was extremely difficult.
"Hmm, broadcasting gymnastics is not bad... Then let's do broadcasting gymnastics... Starting with stretching exercises..."
Gritting his teeth, Tang Ku trained step by step, feeling the long-lost sensation of muscle tearing, which was then slowly restored by the Buddha Power accumulated in his body. His body was transforming bit by bit, becoming stronger little by little. From muscles to bones, then to fascia, and then to the skin surface, everything was torn and reconstructed, to the point that within a few short minutes, he had actually turned into a bloody person...
"He should... be about to give out... Hmph, once you are crushed to death by gravity, you will be the first sacrifice of this aonei luosi... After I kill you, I will naturally find your Disciples and kill them to be sacrifices together!"
Hooke walked to the edge, looking viciously into the pitch-black pit. However, when he looked, a white figure in the pit was gradually turning somewhat red, steam was constantly rising from his body, and that figure covered in steam was actually doing push-ups!
"Refreshing... so refreshing, refreshing!"
Boom... Hum!
With a roar from his throat, Tang Ku suddenly stood up. His bones crackled all over his body, his muscles and fascia made harsh creaking sounds, and even his skin seemed to be breathing like a whistling wind.
Tang Ku's Physical Body seemed to have undergone some kind of qualitative change during this continuous quantitative change of training.
His muscles were no longer bulging; he looked just like a delicate scholar. His skin was fair, as if it were a woman's, and his eyes were bright, shining like lightning.
It was as if he had been reborn, his Physical Body strength having reached a higher level!
Squatting down slightly, the thirty times gravity could no longer cause him any impact; in fact, his body was even more agile than it had been under twenty times gravity. He suddenly leaped up, actually jumping out of the pit like a cannonball. Hooke's legs went weak with fear, and he said in shock, "H-how could this be? You... you are not human, you are a monster, a monster!"
At this moment, he was almost scared to the point of wetting himself. How could he still bother with wielding the gravity Law? He immediately retreated tremblingly, then turned around and ran for his life.
However, just a few steps into his run, Tang Ku's voice came from behind: "If you dare to run, I will casually smash this so-called aonei luosi into pieces!"
Hooke immediately braked hard to stop, turned his head, and shouted in terror: "No, you can't... that would cause an irreparable disaster!"
