Grand Duke Lynch didn't keep Doug waiting too long.

On the same day, he set up a self-abuse and self-improvement team in the Duke's Palace, specifically to verify King Holly's theory of broken bones and rebirth.

The participants in the experiment included warriors of various star ranks, magicians of different ranks, and ordinary people who had neither awakened martial spirits nor magical talents...

and.

It didn't take long for the self-abuse team to produce miraculous results.

The subjects whose bones and tendons were broken used healing spells to heal them. After repeating this several times, their soul power actually improved.

Although the effect is not as obvious as Dugu's, his soul power has indeed been improved. This improvement far exceeds the speed of tempering his own soul power step by step.

then.

Grand Duke Lynch was revered as a god.

After that, screams could be heard everywhere in the Duke's Mansion.

Everyone is frantically torturing themselves, trying to quickly improve their strength...

After realizing that it really worked, even Grand Duke Lynch joined in the self-abuse, calling on his loyal guards to hammer his body.

After going through the process of severe pain—screams—healing, the Duke, who was nearly sixty years old and whose magic power had not improved in nearly ten years, suddenly discovered that his magic power had actually improved a little.

The discovery made him ecstatic.

For a moment, he suddenly didn't want to go against Holly anymore.

If this method of practicing broken bones and regenerating them can really make people become gods, then Holly is undoubtedly the guide who walks in front.

The most important thing is that Holly will personally verify the skills and pass on his research insights to others without reservation.

If he died, who knew what to do next?

This is the hope of becoming a god, and the title of Grand Mage is already the highest in the world.

But even if he was the highest in the world, he would still be helpless when he met a little guy who was endowed with divine power by the sea god...

The humiliation of being defeated by Holly has always been hidden in Grand Duke Lynch's heart.

If possible, he would like to go up a bit. He has a wealth of magical knowledge. Maybe one day, he will be able to defeat Holly by himself!

but.

Grand Duke Lynch did not place all his hopes on Duger. He gathered a group of wise men to study the art of division together.

Because when he was talking to Doug, there were some terms he didn't understand, like cells. The Grand Duke suspected that they were exclusive terms in the divine world...

…

"King, Grand Duke Lynch is conducting some evil experiments. He gathered a group of people, broke their muscles and bones, and then used healing magic to heal them. I suspect they are practicing evil magic..."

After witnessing the strange phenomena in the Duke's Mansion, Old Man Gao came to Douge to complain with great concern.

"Don't worry about them. I was the one who passed down this technique." Doug glanced at Old Man Gao and said. With the improvement of his attributes, the range of his spiritual awareness has now expanded to half of the city. The Duke's Mansion has no secrets for him.

He even heard Duke Lynch's earnest admonitions to Sima Lynch, and broke her ribs with tears in his eyes, and then helped her heal her injuries.

Sima Lynch, who grew up in a greenhouse and had never experienced any hardship, had never experienced the pain of broken bones and tendons.

Although his strength has increased, this delicate magical girl had already scolded him badly in the secret room, and he was afraid that she would cut him into pieces next.

He also guessed the reason for the increase in soul power and mental strength. It was probably not related to the recovery of the tearing, but more about the belief brought by the pain.

After being beaten, everyone would think in their minds that after having suffered so much pain, how could their efforts be justified if their mental strength did not improve?

and.

To a certain extent, pain can indeed stimulate willpower and increase mental endurance.

Of course, there is probably some hormones like adrenaline playing a role in this...

But no matter what the reason is, it proves that the method is feasible! Then the credit cannot be thrown to Grand Duke Lin Qi in vain.

"You spread it?" Old Gao was stunned.

"Yes, I spread it." In front of Old Gao, Douger skillfully crushed his left hand from fingers to arm with his right hand. Then, in the incredulous eyes of Old Gao, the limp arm quickly returned to its original state.

Then, he performed a move of breaking his right hand with his left hand...

"Gao, I used healing magic before, but it has broken so many times that I no longer need to use healing magic. It can heal automatically." Doug looked at the old man Gao's expression and explained lightly, "I call this the forging process of the divine body."

"Immortality?" Old Gao could hardly hide his shock.

"I'm not yet immortal. I just recover faster." As Douger said this, he pulled out a dagger from his waist and chopped off his left hand.

As his left hand left his body, a crystal clear water hand suddenly appeared, grabbed his severed hand, and connected it back to the wrist.

In the blink of an eye.

The wound healed and the wrist returned to normal.

When he was in the Medical Immortal Sect, Duger practiced medical skills and was very good at surgery. He was steady, accurate and ruthless when performing operations. Coupled with his terrifying recovery ability, he had no problem reattaching severed limbs.

When Old Gao saw this scene, he was almost scared to death.

He now suddenly understood where those blood spots on the ground came from.

When no one was around, King Holly must have hurt himself countless times.

Gulp!

Old Gao swallowed his saliva. King Holly was indeed smart, but his actions were too unexpected.

Who would hurt themselves without blinking an eye? The experimental team formed by Grand Duke Lynch howled in agony every day, as if they were being tortured.

If they could see how King Holly treated them, those guys biting sticks and towels and grimacing would probably be ashamed to death!

If a limb is cut off and heals instantly, it can be considered a divine body! "King Holly, can I practice cultivation?" Old Gao asked with some envy.

"Of course, this is a technique of hard training that I developed. It requires people with great willpower to practice it. It is a quick way for many people who don't have any skills to improve their soul power. I asked Duke Lynch to teach it to everyone. Didn't he do as I asked?" Doug asked with a frown.

"..." Old Gao's face looked a little unhappy, and he said angrily, "Grand Duke Lin Qi said that this technique was researched by him."

Doug was stunned for a moment, then sighed helplessly, "You never change your bad habits!"

"Wang, I'll go and catch him." said Old Gao.

"No need. In the next war, we will still need Grand Duke Lin Qi's help. Give him another chance." Doug stopped torturing himself and said, "Gao, find a group of people to spread this technique! Tell the world that anyone who practices this technique is an ascetic.

In the early stage, you should mainly beat your body, and then use healing magic or medicinal herbs, as well as sufficient food. If you don’t have the conditions, don’t rush into it, otherwise you will hurt your body. Anyone who practices asceticism can be considered my disciple..."

"Yes." Old Gao responded angrily, "King, can I tell others that Grand Duke Lin Qi has taken the asceticism you developed for himself?"

"Okay, let's give him a warning!" Doug hesitated for a moment and said, "I hope he can learn a lesson and stop doing these things that embezzle other people's credit."

"Hmph!" Old Gao snorted in disgust and said, "Wang, I will not let your reputation be tarnished by a villain..."

"Stop it." Doug looked at him and warned him, "No one is perfect. We should allow a talented person to have a little blemish."

…

Old Gao left immediately.

Prince Nelson came over right after. With a flattering smile, he saluted to Douger and said, "King, when can I leave here?"

All the nobles were released by Doug, and only he was still imprisoned in the Duke's Palace. Prince Nelson was already a little restless. He was afraid that he would be imprisoned for life, so he mustered up the courage to find Doug.

"Tomorrow." Doug looked at him and said.

"Tomorrow?" Prince Nelson asked in surprise.

"Yes, tomorrow." Doug nodded affirmatively. "Tomorrow I will leave with you. Along the way, we will inspect the nobles who have returned to their respective territories to see if they have committed evil again. After judging them, we will go north to find His Majesty Lucerne and persuade him to abdicate."

Prince Nelson was dumbfounded. He looked at Douger and asked blankly, "King, are you going to persuade my father to abdicate?"

Duger snorted: "Yes, he has messed up the country and is not worthy of sitting on the throne of the monarch."

"King Holly, what happened in White Stone City may have reached my father's ears. He may be gathering troops to attack us. If you go to him and force him to abdicate at this time, it will only trigger a war!" Prince Nelson said with a bitter face.

"Nelson, you've already said that he is very likely gathering troops to attack us. So whether I go to find him or not, the war will break out." Doug looked at Nelson strangely and said, "Then why don't we force him to abdicate and end this war at the source?"

"But..." Prince Nelson looked anxious.

"Nothing." Doug shook his head and said, "Nelson, have you never thought about becoming a king?"
