Chapter 19 of "Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation" introduces new challenges: Ding Huan had limited time; he only spent most of the day teaching the first... Keep following!

Ding Huan had limited time; he only spent most of the day teaching the first half of his modified gene meditation to the three people. Fortunately, everyone was very clear about the acupoints since whether it was gene class or martial arts class, human body acupoints, meridians, organs, and bones were all mandatory. This saved Ding Huan a lot of time. Although Ding Huan had now vaguely constructed his own gene knowledge system, he was still a bit lacking when it came to modifying cultivation techniques. It wasn't that his understanding of genes was insufficient—after receiving the knowledge of genes and cultivation infused from the leather scroll, his comprehension of the relationship between genes and cultivation was very clear. It was just that he lacked experience, so the cultivation technique he modified was merely an addition of the meridian acupoints and qi circulation directions from Luo Shijin on top of the basis of gene meditation. Even if one knew this qi circulation direction, the first step of successful cultivation to produce qi was extremely difficult. Ding Huan customized a Quality Gene Potion for Fang Chong, Li Wanran, and Lv Zi that was suited to their individual qualities. This Quality Gene Potion couldn't compare to the Spirit Root Gene Potion, yet combined with Ding Huan's modified gene meditation, it allowed the three to more easily find the Circuit Path. Otherwise, even if you knew how the qi should circulate in the Cycle, if the qi doesn't listen to you, or to say you don't have qi at all, what can you do? By noon, Fang Chong, Li Wanran, and Lv Zi had not yet felt a clear sensation of qi, but they could carry out gene meditation in a decent manner. As for Geng Qianxing, half a day had passed with no reaction at all. Ding Huan had no time to waste with the four of them, so after eating, he returned to his residence to continue his cultivation of Luo Shijin. He ignored the people tailing him; if they didn't make a move against him, it was better not to stir things up. If they dared to act, he would simply kill another two. ... Ding Huan skipped dinner and continued to cultivate until the next morning. Just as Ding Huan was about to go out to eat something, Geng Qianxing hurriedly came to him. "Brother Ding, you are my brother, you must help me," said Geng Qianxing, with an urgency as if he was about to meet his doom. Ding Huan didn't need Geng Qianxing to explain; he knew what was going on, "Do you also need a gene potion to enhance your physical qualities?" "That's a real gene potion? You didn't say..." Geng Qianxing looked incredulously at Ding Huan. When Ding Huan had administered it to the three students, he hadn't said it was a gene potion. "What do you think?" Ding Huan said with a smile, looking at Geng Qianxing. What a joke, if it weren't for a gene potion, how could a reagent break through the physical constraints of an ordinary person, enhance their body's potential for cultivation? He had been inspired by the Spirit Root Genetic Reagent and then concocted a similar Genetic Potion. Because it wasn't a gene spiritual root, Ding Huan even included a gene chain that eased the impact of the gene potion. So when the three took it there was no reaction. Even if there was a reaction, it manifested later during cultivation practice. "Ding Huan, work hard for a bit and help me refine two tubes of that kind of gene reagent. I was the only one without any reaction after cultivating all of yesterday, while at least they had a slight flow of qi," Geng Qianxing couldn't help but say. "Okay, I'll test you today, then mix up a gene reagent for your physical qualities," Ding Huan patted Geng Qianxing on the shoulder. He had intended to do this for Geng Qianxing anyway. If you want to become his assistant, it won't do without strong capabilities. Compared to the others, Ding Huan preferred cultivating Geng Qianxing rather than the three students. "Great, I'll follow your lead unconditionally," Geng Qianxing said excitedly, stammering a bit. Once again, he was impressed by Ding Huan's abilities—solid, real capabilities. In his work with genes until today, he had never seen any gene expert who could customize gene potions to improve physical qualities based on personal circumstances. ... Since Ding Huan helped Geng Qianxing make a gene potion for physical qualities, Geng Qianxing hadn't come looking for him again. Ding Huan also kept to himself; other than going to the cafeteria when he was hungry, he used almost all his time to cultivate Luo Shijin. Feeling his strength increasing every day, Ding Huan cultivated even more wildly, suspecting he could step into the ranks of the Second Level gene cultivators within a month. At this moment, Ding Huan had long forgotten that he should go to the classroom to teach the three students Martial Arts Skills, until Geng Qianxing took the initiative to come to him again. "Why have you come again?" Ding Huan woke up to realization after only saying one sentence; it was time for him to teach Martial Arts. "It's been twenty days, you haven't been to the classroom to teach everyone Martial Arts Skills, they came to me..." Geng Qianxing said helplessly. "Let's go, I'm heading there now," Ding Huan hurriedly said. He felt somewhat apologetic; since he had taken three individuals under his wing, even though he had exerted some effort in the first two days, for the past half-month, he had largely left them to their own devices. Following Geng Qianxing to the classroom, Ding Huan saw from afar that the spirit and vitality of Fang Chong and the other two were completely different from half a month ago. "Mr. Ding," seeing Ding Huan coming over, Fang Chong and the others quickly stood up. Compared to before, they now regarded Ding Huan as nothing short of a deity. In just over twenty days, they felt as though they had undergone a metamorphosis. At this moment, the three of them were grateful that they had stayed at Yujiang University. Beforehand, how could they have anticipated such tremendous progress? If they found such an excellent mentor and made such rapid progress but still couldn't get into the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, it would only mean they were too weak. "Looking at you all, it seems your cultivation is not bad," Ding Huan noticed right away that if the three continued on this path, they might all reach the level of a Second Level gene cultivator in three months' time. "Mr. Ding, I now feel like I'm full of strength; I can stride over ten meters in a single step," Fang Chong could not resist sharing his experience. "I feel the same, although not as exaggerated as Fang Chong, I can clearly feel that both my strength and speed have improved rapidly," Li Wanran said, involuntarily clenching her fists. She had a premonition that if she continued on this path, she really could get into the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges. The Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, if she could get in, it would not only make her family go wild, but she would also become famous throughout Heluo City. Lv Zi said excitedly, "Teacher, now when I do gene meditation cultivation, I feel very refreshed even after a whole night without sleep." "Yes, yes..." Fang Chong and Li Wanran promptly echoed. Ding Huan felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. His original cultivation was gene meditation, a method that couldn't replace sleep. Lv Zi's words indicated that the gene meditation he altered was much stronger than the original, and it might even be close to Luo Shijin. "Mr. Ding, I feel that the gene cultivation technique we're practicing is simply heaven-defying. Calling it gene meditation feels too low-end," Fang Chong shared his thoughts. The Genetic Alliance and many powerful beings had gene cultivation techniques, but he thought the gene meditation taught by Ding Huan was far superior. Hearing this, Ding Huan's heart stirred. Indeed, it no longer suited to be called gene meditation, as he had modified it. After contemplating, Ding Huan said, "Let's call it the 'Qianluo Gene Technique' then." "The name is good, and even includes Qianluo Mountain," Geng Qianxing was the first to say. Ding Huan smiled and didn't explain; his 'Qianluo' didn't actually refer to Qianluo Mountain, but rather symbolized the body's meridians and the meaning of Luo Shijin. "The Qianluo Gene Technique, the name certainly sounds high-end," Fang Chong immediately said loudly. "Now that we have a catchy name, let's not discuss the cultivation technique any further. Next, I'll teach you martial arts skills. Remember, today is the last time I'll teach you, and I'll only teach you for today. After that, you'll have to cultivate on your own." Ding Huan didn't want to waste any more time; after today, he planned to leave Yujiang University for a while, mainly to look for the Fire Lizard. With his current strength, protecting himself would certainly not be an issue. Moreover, now that he had the Spirit Root Gene, and even became a Second Level gene cultivator, that meant a boost in power for him. Cultivating Luo Shijin every day was gradually improving his strength. With this in mind, he had to consider acquiring some skill genes. A gene for self-healing and recovery was absolutely crucial. Several students including Geng Qianxing all knew Ding Huan's character; while they came here daily, In fact, Geng Qianxing was only in name a lead teacher. They did not come here for lectures or to attend classes, there was only one thing they did: they shut the classroom door and then cultivate the Qianluo Gene Technique. So, upon hearing that Ding Huan said today would be the last time he would teach, and that it would again be up to themselves to cultivate, the students barely dared to breathe, lest they miss something important. However, Geng Qianxing was somewhat speechless. After all, Ding Huan was also a training instructor for the entrance examination of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, but how many times had he taught in total? Specifically, he had come four times, including today, and he had only taught twice. To claim that today would be the last time after only two sessions, could a teacher be any less responsible? But seeing how focused Fang Chong and the others were, Geng Qianxing hurriedly gathered his thoughts and became serious. He needed to listen too. Gripes aside, the attraction was real. "The martial arts skill I am going to teach everyone is called Basic Long Fist. Everyone, follow me to the Martial Arts Training Ground," Ding Huan had no plans to teach any advanced martial techniques. The Basic Long Fist in the Changyi Continent has been preserved through time, each move being the essence of countless refinements. Once the Basic Long Fist was mastered, understanding the essence of it, one could infer other martial arts skills from this one. And the Basic Long Fist needed to be practiced in conjunction with the movement of Inner Qi, which is why Ding Huan had the students first cultivate a sense of Inner Qi. (Today's update ends here, good night, friends!)
