Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#239 - The magical milk of the earth!

With a flick of his sleeve, a round, milky-white droplet, reflecting a myriad of colors in the sunlight, instantly appeared on Liang Yue's fingertip.

This was none other than a drop of Earth Spirit Milk taken from the jade cauldron!

At this moment, even with the isolation of true energy, this drop of Earth Spirit Milk still faintly emitted a wisp of fragrance, and upon gently inhaling it, Liang Yue's body almost immediately experienced the same feeling of joyful elation as before.

A yearning emotion was constantly rising within him!

After looking at it curiously, Liang Yue curved his finger and flicked the spirit milk into his mouth.

In an instant, a faint sweetness, accompanied by a massive amount of pure energy, suddenly began to pour down Liang Yue's throat!

During the process, even his throat itself, and every place that the energy touched, seemed to transform into a parched field at this moment, greedily sucking in this mellow torrent of energy.

In just a few breaths, Liang Yue felt a surging heat begin to permeate his entire body, even his skin turning red from the heat.

Under the infusion of a large amount of pure energy, the true energy in his dantian and the magic heart in his mind involuntarily accelerated their circulation.

Feeling the surging energy within his body, which was almost overflowing, Liang Yue unconsciously closed his eyes again, fully mobilizing the true energy in his dantian.

Following the circulation route of the "Zixia Divine Art", he began to rapidly convert this energy.

With the assistance of the "Great Shift of the Universe", and relying on his superb control over true energy, Liang Yue could barely set up a true energy wall around himself while circulating his true energy.

In this way, he firmly confined the energy that was escaping from his body within.

Afterward, without Liang Yue even having to worry about it, the magic heart in his mind began to autonomously accelerate its absorption.

With one diminishing and the other increasing, they barely achieved a balanced cycle.

In this process, time quietly passed~

After another half an hour, until the sun had completely risen from behind the mountains, Liang Yue finally finished absorbing the surging Earth Essence energy within his body.

Not bad~!

This energy was indeed as the system had described, not only increasing true energy but also consolidating cultivation.

Perhaps this was because Earth energy itself carried a kind of earthy solidity.

Perhaps~ there might be other extremely mysterious explanations, which Liang Yue's current level couldn't reach, or which exceeded his existing knowledge.

In short, after converting the energy of this drop of Earth Spirit Milk, the true energy in Liang Yue's body seemed to have been tainted with a trace of mysterious Earth characteristics.

Imperceptibly, it became more solid and heavier~

If the true energy in Liang Yue's body, which was already at the peak of the acquired stage, was originally a vaporized state of energy, then at this time, these vaporized energies seemed to have signs of approaching fusion.

Liang Yue had reason to believe that when this "vapor" began to fuse into "water droplets", it would be the moment his first strand of innate true energy was born!

"Using the transformation of form to promote the sublimation of true energy quality? Isn't this idea the same as the concept of the "Zixia Divine Art"?"

"However, the difference lies in that one is passively formed, while the other is active and organized, but~ the martial arts energy like Zixia True Energy, which has been tempered thousands of times, is still stronger in the end."

"Speaking of which~ with the help of this Earth Spirit Milk, if I don't speed up the cultivation progress of the "Zixia Divine Art", maybe by the time I successfully advance to the innate realm, this technique will not have reached completion yet."

"Speed it up, I really have to speed it up!"

While muttering to himself, Liang Yue also subconsciously stood up from the place where he had been sitting all night, stretching lazily.

The bones and muscles all over his body suddenly crackled~

The invisible force generated by the explosive power even caused the cyan-black clothes outside his body to flutter, ripple, and rustle.

With a thought, under the surge of true energy, the originally somewhat damp fabric suddenly became dry.

Turning his head to look at Little Kong, this little guy had already shaken the hair on his body dry, and strands of it stood upside down, curled up there like a gray, dusty hedgehog.

Seeing Liang Yue get up, this little guy also climbed up from the stone, opened his mouth and yawned, making a lazy, light roar.

"Hungry? Okay~ I'll give you meat, and after you finish eating, we'll continue on our way."

"Squeak squeak~"

"Want to level up as soon as possible? Hehe~ Now is not the time yet. What you experienced before was just a small fight. After a while, I will take you to see the big scene!"

"Squeak squeak~"

"What I cultivated last night was a kind of technique, a bit similar to your level-up and become stronger mode. In fact, in this myriad of worlds, there are also many techniques suitable for animals to cultivate.

I don't know if you can still practice it in your current state."

"Squeak squeak~"

……

Time flew by, and after another day, Liang Yue, who had accelerated his journey again, finally arrived at the foot of Mount Shaoshi in Songshan before sunset.

After inquiring a little in the nearby town, he found that the imperial army did not seem to have started attacking Shaolin yet, but there were some signs that teams of Mongolian soldiers were quietly gathering.

Faced with this situation, Liang Yue was naturally not in a hurry at all. Soon, he used the same trick again, and set up camp in an inconspicuous hill near the Shaolin Temple.

While practicing the Zixia Divine Art, he quietly waited for the opportunity to arrive.

Liang Yue's only goal in coming to Shaolin this time was to collect as many martial arts secrets from the temple as possible, especially the legendary Shaolin Four Great Marvels.

"Boy's Skill", "Yijin Jing", "Xisui Jing", and "Golden Bell Cover"!

In addition, he had no interest in secret elixirs such as Great Revitalizing Pills and Small Revitalizing Pills.

After all, compared to high-end goods like Earth Spirit Milk, those elixirs were still a bit low-end~

In fact, after reaching his current realm, even techniques of the level of the Four Great Divine Skills were no longer of much help to Liang Yue at this time.

Apart from being able to brush a wave of task data for him, even the "Golden Bell Cover", which had once laid a solid foundation for him in the early stage, was no longer valued by this guy.

Because in terms of internal strength, Liang Yue had already selected Zixia and Innate, and from the perspective of physical training alone, the "Golden Bell Cover" would probably be difficult to play a significant role for him.

Of course, if he could have one more defensive martial arts method without changing his techniques, Liang Yue would be happy to see it happen.

"In short~ I hope that Zixia True Energy can also drive this external training and internal cultivation divine skill inheritance, otherwise, I can only think of another way~"
