Upon arriving home, Lothur quickly made his way to his training site, where he had prepared to stimulate his resistance to flames and darkness.
Viktoria did not stop her husband and went about her own business, as she felt she could not falter or he would leave her behind.
So, a short time after the previous troublesome occasion had ended, Lothur was already without clothes in the middle of a training room, where several devices with formations were in his surroundings.
These things that looked like fire extinguishers usually found on Earth, half yellow and the rest black, were around where Lothur was sitting, following circular lines that he had drawn. On them were the formations he had produced, following Anneke's advice.
After he was ready to begin, Lothur activated the formations on the yellow 'extinguishers,' beginning the operation of these things that had the opposite effect to the similar items seen on Earth.
As the spiritual energy from the surroundings began to 'nourish' the formations on these cylindrical items, slowly orange flames began to pour out of their 'mouths.'
At first, these flames barely reached Lothur, nor did they stimulate him. But within moments, they increased both in temperature and size.
He knew exactly his current endurance level, so these formations naturally spewed flames strong enough to hurt him. Because of this, within minutes of sitting there with those 'extinguishers,' Lothur began to feel pain, with the hairs on his arms, chest, and back beginning to burn.
There were no 'mouths' of the 'extinguishers' directed at his face, so the hair on this young man's head was 'safe.' Anyway, he did not even care about this, as he expressed his pain on his face without making the distinctive sounds of moments like this.
With that, after some time under the effect of these formations, which differed from cultivator flames, which were usually much more powerful, Lothur's resistance was finally stimulated!
[Abnormal temperature detected in the host's upper body...]
[Activating emergency measures...]
[Iron-grade flame resistance.]
[Progress: 99%.]
...
[Progress: 100%.]
When he felt a burning sensation at the nape of his neck, where the base of human cultivation should be, Lothur began to notice chills and sweat all over his body.
Simultaneously, the feeling of medulla cleansing began to intensify in his being, along with his Super Regeneration kicking in to resolve his burns.
In this way, Lothur would spend the next few seconds feeling these various sensations until the impurities driven to leave his body stopped coming out of his pores.

[Name: Lothur Ritter]
[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]
[Bloodline: Life Devourer]
[Body Cultivation: level 11]
[STR: 49.7]
[CON: 202.2 -> 203.9]
[DEX: 43.7]
[AGI: 60]
[INT: 93.4]
[PER: 105.5 -> 106.6]
[WIL: 84.1 -> 85.8]
[EVF: 708 -> 699]
Feeling much better, Lothur opened his eyes and sighed as he noted his slight improvements in status.
He then turned off the formations that were still emitting flames in his direction, which at the moment, could no longer hurt him due to his qualitative evolution.
He could only develop Iron-grade formations as long as he did not have soul cultivation. So the limit of the yellow 'extinguishers,' and also the black ones, was to stimulate resistances of the same classification.
As Lothur was not going to waste time doing something useless, he returned to his position to train his other resistance after drinking water.
It was time for the element of darkness!
Unlike common elements, the darkness did not directly attack the body of humans or similar living beings. Instead, it targeted the soul, which would lead to death in normal situations.
The darkness was directly associated with Natural Laws concerning spiritual death, soul dissipation, and related variations. Hence, its action on cultivators with an affinity to it was focused on this more spiritual part of cultivators.
Lothur did not really understand the logic behind his resistance to darkness since part of his soul was 'incomplete.' But since the system had already shown him the information about his resistance to this element, he knew that somehow he would get improvements by training this characteristic of his.
So he did not hesitate for long and soon activated the formations capable of expelling a dark mist, which soon entered his body like a sponge absorbing water.
He felt a strange sensation in his being when this happened, similar to what one would feel when escaping from a near-death situation.
But it did not harm Lothur's fleshy body, leaving his cells and the like to move towards a small part at the back of his head.
There, this dark source of such an element began to condense under Lothur's small spiritual organ, forming a sort of protective cover over it.
Lothur felt shivers run through his body and involuntary tremors as this happened. He noticed that something there seemed to have started pulsating and absorbing that black energy every few moments.
Since his resistance to the element of darkness was low, soon the system detected 'soul death' approaching him, and this young man's resistance began to work to prevent the worst.
[Darkness detected seeping into the host's soul...]
[Starting emergency measures...]
[Darkness Iron-grade resistance.]
[Progress: 2%]
...
[Progress: 6%]
Then successive notifications began to appear, but Lothur saw nothing while his eyes were closed.
However, given the sensation he felt with each progression of his resistance to the element of darkness, he knew that he was slowly improving.
At the same time, he was slowly raising the potency of the formations in his surroundings, something he would not leave at the maximum, as he had done with the flames.
His resistance to Iron-grade flames was already high, not far from the peak. But his resistance to the element of darkness was so small that it was almost as if he had no such thing.
Hence, Lothur was naturally holding back, with plans to gradually increase the power of the black 'extinguishers' in his surroundings.
...
After almost 2 hours of training his resistance to darkness, Lothur had made incredible progress!
[Darkness Iron-grade resistance.]
[Progress: 81%]
He had never improved this much in one go, but after pondering about it, this young man realized why.
[EVF: 699 -> 499]
'EVF points can be used not only in Constitution but also in Soul. Thus, since I can constantly 'wound' my soul through these formations, I can continuously work on my resistance to the element of darkness.' He pondered.
So far, Lothur had never used formations to train, these things that could continuously use Natural Laws to 'attack' him. Instead, he had only used regular poison master training, which involved natural resources and their manipulation.
But resources ran out, had to be constantly prepared, etc. So he could hardly raise so much of his poison resistance in one go.
'However, a training that can do that with poisons is not easy to make, nor cheap...'
'I'll have to study to see what's most worthwhile...' He pondered before sighing as he had no capabilities currently to produce something of Bronze-grade classification.
'For now, I will continue training with Bronze-grade poisons produced by Becca.' He rose from his seat and prepared to go training with Viktoria.
