Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance

Chapter 6 Training

It's been 6 months since Mira has been at the cave. She's tried to use these last 6 months to the fullest. She's grown to around 115 centimeters tall and has filled out a little bit due to the training and eating lots of meat.

Her training schedule was very rough. She would wake up just before dawn then meditate for an hour to get into the proper mental state. Then she would run for an hour. After running she would have berries and fruit for breakfast. After breakfast would be her strength training. In the morning she would focus on her upper body and core. It would be a combination of punching trees, lifting weights(rocks with ropes tied to them), then she would do situps. After doing all of this, it would be around noon. She would rub the Ironhide grass on her muscles, eat her rations, then circulate her Hell Scythe Essence Manual. This would supply those muscles with enough energy to be fully healed. Also, revolving her cultivation manual would allow some qi in the air to supplement her muscles. This in turn will help heal the torn muscles, while also making them stronger, faster.

After eating and healing her upper body, then she would move onto the lower body. She didn't do as much for her lower body other than squats, lunges, and running. All of this would be done with weights(rocks) tied to her waist and one big rock in an animal skin bad on her back. Mira would work on her lower body until evening and stop and have dinner. Her dinner would be a large meal of the fruit, berries, and animals that she has hunted. She would also use more Ironhide grass paste on her lower body and circulate her cultivation technique. After that's done then she would go hunting. Usually, she brings home 2 animals, but sometimes one or zero if she is unlucky.

After hunting she would come back to her cave and circulate her cultivation technique, forcing qi into her muscles to break down and heal her muscles. This may sound bad, but by slowly using a minute amount of qi to penetrate all of her muscles to help tear some of it then rebuild it with the help of qi, her body can heal with the help of that excess energy and become stronger. If she did this too fast it could leave hidden energies so she has to be extremely careful doing this, but it will speed up her strength training and help her get to the Bone Forging realm.

Right now she can lift around 1000 kilograms. That's around 1/5th of the total amount to break through from the Strength Training to the Bone Forging Realm, but she might have to get to around 6-7000 kilograms to be able to wield her scythe. She has no idea what her scythe is made of other than metal. It's extremely dense not to mention the scythe is 2 meters tall while the blade portion is 80 centimeters long. It may seem like an Earth or Heaven-Grade scythe, but its sharpness is only that of a Peak Mortal-Grade weapon due to the user being too weak.

"Ahhh it's been 6 months already and I can finally lift 1000 kilograms. I have no idea how I will get past the Bone Forging Realm into the Meridian Opening Realm, I either have to find my own lucky encounter or just keep revolving my cultivation technique and let the qi slowly seep into my bones while breaking them down and rebuilding them. I'll have to go deeper into the forest to look for various herbs that can help me break through this realm. Other than that, I will just keep up with my Strength Training Program until I reach Qi Condensation."

Like that, Mira continued her training regiment for another 3 years. Mira was pushing a giant boulder up a hill that was a little over 2 meters in diameter, it's weight should be around 7000 kilograms. It even looked somewhat easy. Of course, Mira was sweating but she been pushing it for around 6 hours now and was about to make it to the top of the hill.

After around 10 minutes she finally made it to the top with the boulder. After she made it to the top of the hill, she pushed the builder to the side and dropped flat on her back.

"I did it! I was finally able to bring this stupid boulder to the top within 6 hours! I should finally be to the point that I can use my scythe! Although it will still be somewhat heavy, I can still carry it around everywhere and also fight some easier rank 1 magic beasts. I won't be able to spin it or anything. I will really only be able to use it like a spear or sword, it is still better than that iron spear that I took 3 years ago. With this, I can finally move farther in the forest!!" Mira yelled in excitement.

After she rested for a little bit she went back to her cave. Even though it was miles away, it still barely took any time at all due to her strength.

After arriving back at her cave, she started to gather everything that she wanted to take with her in her pack, which was really just clothes and some rations. Her clothes have changed in these last 3 years. She used to wear a hanfu, but since they would only tear during her training, now she only wears tanned hide pelts of the animals that she has killed. She looks like a Native American warrior from back on her time on Earth.

After she gathered everything, she had a glint in her eyes which held an excitement that has been there ever since she was born in this world. It's time to take out her scythe!

She took some time to calm down a bit then with her mind called out for the Abyssal Sea Scythe that has been residing in her Soul Sea all this time.

When she did that a huge 2-meter tall scythe came out into her right hand. The temperature around her seemed to drop by several degrees as this imposing black scythe with crystal blue veins running up and down came into Mira's view. This weapon seemed to be made for her. As soon as it came out her body seemed to scream. It really wanted to hold onto this weapon. Mira felt like everything just clicked together when she held this weapon. Maybe because she's been waiting so long and dreaming about it or maybe she was just meant to wield the scythe, but for some reason, she seemed to connect with this better than in her previous life. She put that thought to the back of her head and started trying to wield the scythe.

She started swinging it, stabbing with the end, rotating it in her arms. It was still heavy for her, but she's able to wield it. She just won't be able to control the momentum of the scythe. Plus this thing is huge, after about 3 years her height has grown to around 135 centimeters tall, but this scythe is around 2 meters tall with the blade being 70 centimeters long. There is no way she can use this like normal with the way she is now. Even just holding the scythe parallel to the ground, the blade is only a couple of centimeters away from touching the ground.

"Finally! Even though it's too big for me now, I can still use it like a spear and staff. The blade portion can be used, but it'll be kind of awkward. Oh well, I can use it to execute or something like that. Enough with that, it's time to get out of this tiny cave and actually go farther into the forest."

As Mira was saying that she had already left that cave and started going deeper into the Dark Moon Forest.
