5 Chapter 5: Speed Up My Training   

In accordance with the notes, I sat cross-legged on the ground and started my first meditation.

I closed my eyes and concentrated. I started to feel the power of death around me.

In accordance with the notes, I started to meditate step by step.

I closed my eyes, concentrated, and felt the changes around me.

Who knew that just as I focused my mind and felt my surroundings, I noticed that some gray light spots suddenly appeared around me.

Those gray light spots kept floating around me.

They seemed to be floating up and down according to the rhythm of my spiritual power.

I looked at these gray light spots that kept floating around.

I knew that this should be the power of death mentioned in the notes!

However, according to the notes, after successfully possessing the first undead, it would be extremely difficult to start meditating for the first time, and it was very likely that one wouldn't even be able to feel any power of death.

This was not only because there were people with limited aptitudes, but that they didn't have enough affinity with the power of death; it was very likely for them to not be able to feel the power of death.

There was also another possibility, which was that the power of death was even rarer in the air compared to other elemental powers.

It was even possible that the power of death didn't exist in places with strong vitality.

Hence, it might take a very long time to successfully meditate for the first time.

After reading the description of the difficulty of meditation in my notes, I was already mentally prepared to sit on the ground for a few days and do nothing.

But just as I sat down, I felt the power of death in the air even before my butt warmed up.

I couldn't feel any difficulty at all?

Could the power of death be fake?

I really felt that these gray dots of light were too easy to come by. It was so easy that it made me doubt whether they were real or fake.

However, when I thought about the environment here, I understood a little.

The notebook said that some places with strong vitality didn't even have the power of death.

Because the two would repel each other.

Does that mean that some places have less vitality and more power of death?

And where was I at the moment? At a graveyard!

Is there any place in the world that has a stronger power of death than a graveyard?

That's why I could feel the power of death so easily.

Moreover, I should be one of those rare geniuses practicing necromancy.

Yes, that should be it!

After I understood why I could complete the most difficult step of the first meditation so quickly, I started the next step of the meditation.

I started to communicate and absorb the death energy in the air.

After calming my surging heart, I started to extend my spiritual power.

I used my spiritual power to communicate with the death energy in the outside world.

I made them not reject my spiritual power.

Finally, I used my spiritual power to transfer the death energy into my body.

I used the death energy in the outside world to wash my body and expel the impurities. I stimulated my brain to make my spiritual power stronger and easier to use death magic.

The cycle repeated itself...

Gradually, my zombie body and brain began to feel some slight changes.

In an instant, I even felt my limbs and torso become itchy and numb, as if there were many insects crawling and biting on my body.

It was very uncomfortable.

Although the feeling was fleeting, I still felt it keenly.

And while feeling this, I didn't feel pain or fear. Instead, I was somewhat happy.

After becoming a zombie, the nerves in my body lost their function.

Although I was special among zombies, my brain could still think.

However, I hadn't experienced this kind of feeling in my limbs for a long time.

I could control it, but I couldn't feel it.

It was as if these limbs weren't my own.

I thought that after I had become a zombie, I wouldn't be able to feel my own body anymore.

Who knew that just after using the necromancer's training method to meditate for a while, such a huge change would occur!?

If I were to cultivate the necromancer's cultivation method to an extremely profound level...

Wouldn't I be able to take back my senses and experience them once again, controlling my body as I please?

I would no longer have to do what I was doing now.

Every step I took would cause me to stagger two or three times.

Every step I took, a normal human would have already taken a few steps at the same time.

Could I become a normal human again or even surpass a normal human?!

Thinking of this, I started to yearn for the necromancer's notes even more.

I continued to close my eyes and started to absorb the gray light floating in the air.

But soon, I discovered a problem.

I could feel that there was a lot of death energy around me, and I absorbed it very quickly.

However, under the guidance of my spiritual power, the gray light dots washed over my body again and again, but I still couldn't absorb it.

The amount of death energy I absorbed was pitifully small compared to what I could feel.

My zombie body was like a sieve.

Most of the power of death leaked out.

After cultivating step by step for a while, I frowned.

'Too slow!'

'This method of cultivation is too slow.'

'Based on this slow cultivation speed, it would probably take me more than ten years to break through to the second realm.'?

Then wouldn't it take me more than ten years to cultivate to a realm where I could control my body as freely as when I was still a human?

By then, my body would probably... Oh, no. Wouldn't my bones turn to dust and I would be unable to cultivate?

I closed my eyes and frowned.

Just as I was fretting over such a slow cultivation speed, I suddenly discovered that my cultivation speed had increased.

There were no signs at all.

It wasn't that my body could suddenly absorb and accommodate more death energy.

Instead, when I was meditating, my mental energy controlled and absorbed more gray light spots.

Moreover, the absorption efficiency had increased by at least 30% compared to before!

This was...

I was somewhat surprised by this sudden change.

Because, unlike before, I didn't do anything.

In fact, because the speed of my cultivation speed too slow, my attention was a little distracted.

However, my cultivation speed didn't decrease at all. On the contrary, it increased instead of decreasing!

What was the reason for this?

In order to know the reason, I opened my eyes.

The 30% increase in my cultivation efficiency wasn't a small amount.

If I wanted to restore my zombie body to the level of a normal human being, it would be far beyond that of a human being. My slow cultivation speed was definitely not enough.

I opened my eyes and saw the scene in front of me. Then, I recalled what I had seen in the notes.

I finally understood why my cultivation speed had increased so much.
