His body would undergo a drastic modification and be reshaped in the refinement process. Thus, it was only obvious that Nial would be in pain while exerting the 10,000 Refinements of Imperfectia technique.

However, he was pretty sure that everything would be worth it.

First of all, every single refinement in the 10,000 Refinements of Imperfectia technique would contribute to the whole reshaping process but that was not everything.

Nial\'s strength would improve, the flow of his mana was bound to increase drastically, the impurities in his skin, flesh, and veins would slowly be taken care of and he would receive a few more gains as well.

All these things were more than enough for Nial to understand that he had to practice the body refinement technique whether he would undergo hellish pain or not.

The pain would just help him improve more and more...or so Nial hoped while imprinting that thought deep in his mind to make sure that he wouldn\'t give up before it had even begun.

It didn\'t take long before one of the Dojo\'s many servants arrived in front of his room. It was a Valxian, who had failed the entrance test. His expression was eerily calm but his eyes seemed lifeless as he put down everything he had been ordered to bring before he left without saying a single word.

"That was weird..." Nial mumbled and Ryu chirped in acknowledgment before their gazes flicked to the things the servant had brought.

There was everything he needed to undergo the first 100 Refinements of Imperfectia, which was why Nial chose to undergo so many refinements in a single session, no matter how long it would take or how painful it would be.

Nial knew that it required determination and ambition to become stronger, and he was ready to give it all if that was necessary to get closer to his goal.

What exactly that goal was, was something Nial had yet to decide but he was already satisfied with the thought of becoming stronger for him to survive.

Everything would turn to dust and the goals he had or the achievements he had painstakingly made would not matter anymore the moment he died, which meant that his survival was a necessity to attain all kinds of goals and it could also be considered a goal all by itself.

The feeling of having a new goal was nice even if it was not necessarily something special.

Thus, with newfound energy and willpower, Nial began to visualize the first 100 Refinements of Imperfectia in his mind. The first 10 Refinements were to build a foundation in order to start refining the body from a certain point outward.

At first, Nial thought that his entire body would be refined ten thousand times but that couldn\'t be further from the truth. The first 100  and the last 100 Refinements of Imperfectia would refine his entire body, first to create a foundation to start refining with before his body would be \'divided\' into numerous portions. Even they would be refined one after another until the last 100 Refinements of Imperfectia would sew everything together, create a perfect synergy between all parts of the body and finish the refinements by undergoing tens of refinements of the \'perfect\' body once everything was done.

Nial figured that it was far more complex than that but he didn\'t intend to understand the technique in its essence. That would be a waste of time and it was actually not something he could achieve, to begin with.

He was not knowledgeable, let alone intelligent enough to comprehend the essence of the technique. It was already good enough for him to understand the individual refinement procedures and imprint them in his mind.

That was something Nial could do rather quickly because Nial was good at learning and remembering things.

Nial finally got the chance to start practicing the first few refinements of the 10,000 Refinements of Imperfectia technique.

Nial had filled the basin with hot water after which he dissolved the medicinal solutions and nutrition serums inside it before he spread out a bunch of Origin crystals around the basin.

While removing his clothes, Nial accessed all of his Origin crystals before he pulled mana toward him. He began to circulate all of the mana that was inside his body in a specific manner, just as suggested in the body refinement technique\'s first steps.

Nial pushed his entire body underwater, he opened his pores to allow the nutrition and the effect of the medicinal ingredients to be fully unleashed as he started to exert the first Refinement of Imperfectia.

"Argh!!" He growled out underground as a searing pain spread through his entire body the moment he started practicing the first Refinement of Imperfectia.

It was mentioned clearly that the practitioner would feel more pain the bigger the mess of a body he or she possessed. However, even then, Nial would have never expected to feel that much pain.

His body was being pulled apart, or so it felt, at least and Nial couldn\'t do anything to stop it. If he were to stop the first refinement of imperfectia, the pain would become permanent. Nial wanted to avoid that if possible.

He devoured the nutrients in his body and spread them through his entire body to create a soothing sensation that kept spreading through his body. The Heart of Darkness was beating slowly as it absorbed some of the nutrition, altered them with the amplification of the evolved Symbol of Life and returned the altered nutrition.

Time passed slowly and the pain that Nial felt decreased gradually. The water inside the basin had turned red due to the blood that was continuously trickling outside his body and a black reeking mass now covered the surface.

After finishing the first Refinement of Imperfectia, Nial had to clear the water of the impurities. He couldn\'t replace it because there was still loads of nutrition inside the water and Nial didn\'t have the time, let alone wealth to waste precious resources.

\'I wonder how much the Dojo Master paid for everything...does he invest that much in every student, hoping to get back a thousandfold in return?\' Nial wondered when he realized just how many impurities the first Refinement of Imperfectia had already been removed from his body.

He knew that most imperfections would be removed in the first 100 Refinements to make sure that his body could be reshaped with as few impurities inside him as possible but Nial didn\'t expect such a result, nonetheless!

His surprise was clearly visible on his face and Ryu chirped out in joy seeing that Nial was not only doing fine but that he seemed better than before.

The wingless Gryphon had been in a mess upon sensing how much pain Nial had been in all the time. Ryu was in distress, not knowing what he should do instead of trying to become stronger by himself.

Thus, the Gryphon had begun to try using his darkness affinity to manifest wings on his back. This would be the fastest way for Ryu to become happy and to help Nial in various ways.

With that in mind, Ryu focused on himself, while waiting for Nial to say that they would go out for a walk, hunt something, or do something else.

However, until that happened, quite some time would have to pass. After all, Nial had just gotten a taste of how beneficial it was to refine his body.

He couldn\'t just leave after getting a single bite of the tantalizing appetizer!

Nial chose to use up all the resources he had been granted from the Dojo Master and he started refining his body once again undergoing the second Refinement of Imperfectia.

He had cleaned the basin from impurities, which was enough for him to start refining his body once again.

Time passed slowly and he finished the second, third and fourth refinement in the following two days. His progress didn\'t accelerate afterward but he didn\'t slow down either.

Every day he finished two Refinements of Imperfectia after facing unbearable pain...pain that seemed to be necessary to clean his body from the inside that was far more messed up than he could have ever expected.

Almost two months had passed before Nial finally stepped out of the basin. His skin was nearly translucent and it had begun to glow in a milky white hue.

But that was something Nial was obviously not able to see. However, he didn\'t care about his appearance, no matter how handsome he was, either way.

Nial was more focused on the changes going on in his body and the newfound feelings that were coursing through him as he smoothly circulated mana through his body.

"How the hell was it even possible for me to fight opponents stronger than myself when my body was in such a bad condition?" Nial began to wonder when he realized that his mana circulation speed had accelerated by at least 200% while his physical strength seemed to have increased as well.

He finished the first threshold of the Refinements of Imperfectia technique...the first 100 Refinements were completed and Nial had finished all the resources he had been given, and his heart began to palpitate in anticipation.
