[Curse Breaking Methods: 17 Identified]
**Method 1-8:** Require True Cultivator intervention (Nascent Soul Realm minimum). Would take 10-30 years of continuous treatment. Success rate: 60-80%.
**Method 9-12:** Require rare spiritual treasures from Cultivation World. Heaven-rank herbs, divine fruits, phoenix tears, dragon blood. Extremely difficult to obtain. Success rate: 40-90% depending on treasure quality.
**Method 13:** Genetic modification using spiritual energy to rewrite DNA. Requires Qi Refinement Realm minimum. Would take 2-5 years per person. Success rate: 95%. Problem: Can't reach Qi Refinement while cursed. Paradox.
**Method 14-15:** Pill refinement methods using rare ingredients. Require Master Alchemist and 30+ rare ingredients. Success rate: 70-85%.
**Method 16:** Bloodline awakening through extreme life-death tempering. Naturally break curse through repeated breakthroughs. Time: Unpredictable. Success rate: 20%.
**Method 17:** Biochemical intervention using mortal-realm materials...
Shen Tianxu focused on Method 17. This one was different.
[Method 17: Biochemical Curse Breaking]
[Concept: Use mortal-realm substances to create targeted genetic therapy]
[Requirements: Extensive botanical knowledge, precise preparation, perfect dosage]
[Time to develop: Unknown]
[Success rate: Unknown - Theoretical only]
His mind raced. This was possible. Difficult, but possible.
'The curse works by preventing certain genes from expressing. But gene expression is controlled by chemical signals.'
'Epigenetic factors. If I could introduce the right combination of biochemical compounds, I could potentially override the curse's genetic lock.'
He pulled up his archives on pharmacology, biochemistry, and traditional medicine.
Information from humanity's medical development combined with what he'd learned about this world's herbs and materials.
'I need compounds that can: cross cell membranes easily, target bone marrow stem cells specifically, trigger DNA methylation changes, activate dormant genes, and do all this without damaging normal cell function.'
His Supreme Comprehension began identifying candidates.
'Vermillion Spirit Fruit extract—high in anthocyanins and pterostilbene. Can cross blood-brain barrier, probably crosses other barriers too. Shows epigenetic modification effects.'
'Jade Moon Flower—contains unique alkaloids that affect stem cell differentiation.'
'Golden Sun Root—high in specific terpenoids that interact with genetic transcription factors.'
'Shadow Moss—produces compounds similar to what my archives call HDAC inhibitors. These affect histone modification.'
'Nine Stars Grass—contains what's essentially a natural CRISPR-like mechanism in its seeds.'
'If I could extract and combine these in the correct ratios, create a delivery mechanism that targets bone marrow, and time the doses with cultivation breakthroughs...'
[Supreme Comprehension Analysis: Curse Breaking Formula]
[Proposed Compound: Genesis Elixir]
[Ingredients: 23 identified (9 common, 14 rare)]
[Preparation: 47 steps, requires precise temperature and timing control]
[Estimated Development Time: 6-18 months]
[Estimated Success Rate: 65-80% (increases with preparation quality)]
[Side Effects: Minimal if prepared correctly]
A path forward. Not easy, but possible. And it didn't require spiritual cultivation to implement.
'I can work on this while advancing through my technique,' he concluded. 'Gather ingredients. Research preparation methods. Test on myself first since I have the best chance of surviving if something goes wrong.'
'Or if I happen to have any enemies from the elf race, they can serve as my lab rat...if that ever happens.'
But that was future planning. Right now, he needed to focus on immediate cultivation.
He turned his attention to Realm 1, Stage 1 of his Primordial Genesis Body Cultivation.
Foundation Genesis began with the legs, similar to Boundless Martial Body Art. But his version was far more comprehensive.
[Primordial Genesis Body Cultivation - Realm 1, Stage 1]
**Focus:** Lower Body Foundation
**Target:** Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Glutes, Calves
**Primary Acupoints:** 12 locations aligned with major nerve clusters
**Secondary Points:** 36 supporting locations
**Energy Pattern:** Triple-helix circulation with seven focal convergence points
**Process:**
1. Induce controlled micro-trauma at cellular level
2. Flood area with energy to accelerate repair
3. Restructure muscle fiber composition (increase Type IIx, optimize Type I)
4. Enhance neuromuscular junction efficiency
5. Strengthen connective tissue integration
6. Improve local blood flow and capillary density
**Expected Enhancement:** increased strength, increased endurance, increased explosive power
**Expected Timeline:** 3 hours at full concentration ]
'Three hours, not too long.'
He began immediately.
Energy—converted from his body's vitality, the food he'd eaten, his natural recovery—began circulating through his legs in the complex pattern he'd designed.
It touched the first primary acupoint. Energy flooded the location.
He felt his quadriceps begin to break down at the microscopic level. Individual muscle fibers developing tiny tears.
Exactly as planned.
Then the energy shifted, accelerating repair. But not just repair—optimization. Each fiber rebuilt slightly different. Denser. More efficient. Better.
The sensation was intense. Like his legs were being disassembled and rebuilt piece by piece from the inside.
Hours passed. He lost himself completely in the process.
The pain was significant. More aggressive than normal cultivation.
But his Supreme Comprehension maintained perfect control. Never too much damage. Never inefficient recovery. Always optimal.
[Progress: Stage 1 - 45% Complete]
He pushed harder. The triple-helix energy pattern intensified. All twelve primary acupoints synchronized.
His legs burned. Felt like fire was crawling through every muscle fiber.
But his base system showed everything proceeding perfectly.
[Muscle density increasing.]
[Neural connections strengthening.]
[Foundation solidifying.]
[Progress: Stage 1 - 78% Complete]
'Almost there,' he thought through the discomfort. 'Just maintain the pattern through the final integration.'
The last phase required all forty-eight points—twelve primary and thirty-six secondary—to activate simultaneously.
The energy demand was enormous. He poured everything he had into it.
Something clicked. Like a lock opening from the inside.
All the enhanced muscle fibers, optimized nerves, strengthened connective tissue suddenly integrated into a unified system.
[Breakthrough Achieved]
[Primordial Genesis Body Cultivation: Realm 1, Stage 1 → Stage 2]
[Enhancement: Leg strength +200%, stability +150%, energy capacity +100%]
[New Estimated Combat Power: Muscle Tempering Stage 5 + 40%]
He immediately began Stage 2. This focused on core muscles and spinal support.
Different acupoints. More complex energy patterns. The difficulty increased but his Supreme Comprehension handled it.
Another three hours passed.
[Breakthrough Achieved]
[Primordial Genesis Body Cultivation: Realm 1, Stage 2 → Stage 3]
Stage 3 was the most complex yet. It incorporated arms, shoulders, chest, and back into one integrated system.
Twenty-four primary acupoints. Seventy-two secondary points. Energy patterns that had to synchronize perfectly or the whole thing would collapse.
He didn't make mistakes.
His concentration was absolute. His control was perfect. The Supreme Comprehension System guided every minute adjustment with inhuman precision.
