Chapter 8: Warm-hearted men are ranked behind dogs.
All 20,000 general experience points were poured into "General Knowledge of Alchemy Cultivation". The next moment, Lü Yao felt his spirit and the power in his body were all stirred up.
The invisible energy in the surrounding void also entered Lü Yao's body through his breathing, even through his pores, intertwining and combining with the substances in his body. Then, it was systematically placed in different areas of his body, gradually building up a mysterious energy cycle.
Throughout the process, apart from a slight discomfort at the beginning.
Lu Yao gradually felt lightheaded and his head was spinning.
He felt as if he were being hugged and enveloped by an older sister, a warm and comforting feeling that made his soul almost float out of his body.
After about ten minutes, this strange feeling gradually subsided.
Lu Yao took a deep breath, then sighed, feeling a sense of lightness and clarity wash over him.
He summoned his control panel again:
[General experience: 27.2↑]
[Cultivation Realm: Fifth Stage of Physical Body (1825/60000)]
[Basic Skill - Eight Forms of Enemy Destruction: Intermediate Level (158921/1000000)]
[Alchemist Lv1 - "General Alchemy Training → 100%", "Principles of Alchemy Transformation", "Diagrams of Alchemy Runes and Arrays"]
Looking at the panel in front of him, Lü Yao realized something was wrong.
He was originally more than two thousand experience points away from the fifth level of physical cultivation, but after maxing out his "General Knowledge of Alchemy Cultivation", his physical cultivation level actually improved as well.
Two ways to eat a chicken?
Cool!
However, compared to the improvement of human body cultivation, Lü Yao was more interested in the cultivation of alchemists.
Once the "General Knowledge of Alchemy Cultivation" was fully activated, Lü Yao's mental power could easily sense a strange energy cycle flowing within his body. This energy cycle was based on the matter existing within his own body, with his spirit as the bridge, and resonated with external energy.
The ceaseless energy cycle surged within Lü Yao's body with each breath, like the tides.
When Lü Yao meditates and his mental energy fluctuates, he can accelerate the internal and external resonance, and the magic power will gradually drip down like sweet rain, gathering in the "magic pool" in his body.
It was only at this moment that Lü Yao understood that the Magic Pool was not a physical entity, but rather a link in an energy cycle, or rather, the entire energy cycle itself constructed by alchemists! That was the Magic Pool.
This cultivation system is clearly far superior to the "human body cultivation" system, which relies on enhancement supplements and training.
It's no wonder that with the introduction of the alchemy system, the level of human cultivation also broke through.
Just as Lü Yao was resting and reviewing the situation, a series of knocking sounds came from outside the gravity training room.
When Lü Yao looked up, he saw Gu Xiaoshu tilting her head and looking at him curiously from outside the reinforced fiberglass partition in front of the gravity training room.
The gravity training room uses strong magnets to regulate the so-called "gravity". People who enter the room and wear special training clothes will feel pressure from all directions, thereby increasing the intensity of training. In order to prevent accidents from happening in the training room, the gravity training room is partitioned with reinforced fiberglass on three sides, which is intended to facilitate the site safety officer to patrol.
Therefore, it is easy to see who is training inside.
Gu Xiaoshu, standing outside the fiberglass enclosure, waved and asked Lü Yao if he had finished training.
Lu Yao took off his training clothes and came out of the gravity training room: "What's wrong?"
Gu Xiaoshu said with surprise, "Tsk, that's rare to see you at the training center. Are you planning to relieve your depression through training?"
Lu Yao rolled his eyes: "What's there to be depressed about? I'm having a great time."
Just as they were talking, two more people approached them.
A man and a woman came over. The woman was very tall, about 1.78 meters, but she also had a great figure with a slim waist, full hips, and long, rounded thighs and slender, toned calves.
The girl was wearing a pair of gray athletic shorts, a white sports vest, and a sports jacket. She exuded a youthful and sporty vibe, like a female character straight out of a comic book.
And that man...
It's a man.
The girl approached Gu Xiaoshu and asked, "Your friend?"
Gu Xiaoshu introduced with a smile: "This is Lü Yao, whom I told you about. He's been my best friend since high school."
Then Gu Xiaoshu introduced Lu Yao: "This is Chen Yun'er, a real beauty~"
Lü Yao smiled and said, "Hello."
Chen Yun'er smiled and looked Lü Yao up and down: "Oh~~ you're Lü Yao. The handsome guy who's really famous at school lately. There's a rumor that you're being kept by a sugar daddy, is it true?"
Seeing the burning gossip in the other person's eyes, Lü Yao smiled and said, "I need to clarify something."
Gu Xiaoshu and Chen Yun'er stared at Lü Yao.
Lü Yao smiled frankly and said, "That's not a rumor."
Gu Xiaoshu immediately gave her a look of disgust, as if to say, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be this kind of Lu Yao." Chen Yun'er was much more restrained, but her eyes were clearly more complicated, showing both surprise and curiosity.
Instead, the man who came with Chen Yun'er suddenly spoke up, saying, "You're quite humorous. Everyone's saying you broke up with Zhang Biqian through emotional abuse for a rich woman. Looks like it's true?"
Lü Yao looked at the other person and asked, "Who are you?"
The other person's face immediately darkened, and they seemed a little annoyed.
Upon seeing this, Gu Xiaoshu immediately introduced, "This is Li Qi'an, he's Yun'er's... um, friend."
Lu Yao nodded and smiled, "You could call it a breakup through emotional abuse, but to say that he broke up with that woman because of a rich woman is giving that woman too much credit."
Gu Xiaoshu quickly followed up in defense of Lü Yao, saying, "Exactly! That Zhang Biqian is such a slut, a complete bloodsucker! The sooner Da Yao breaks up with her, the better!"
The look of disgust on Gu Xiaoshu's face just now is the kind of communication that only close friends would have. If the relationship isn't particularly close, people would just smile and not say anything, like Chen Yun'er.
As for Li Qi'an...
Lu Yao realized that the other party was just trying to get noticed.
as predicted.
Even with Gu Xiaoshu's defense, Li Qi'an still targeted Lü Yao: "Even so, you can't talk about those two girls like that in the group chat. They are girls after all, and you should be gentler. To put it bluntly, isn't your friend a scumbag?"
After saying this, Gu Xiaoshu was already annoyed.
Even Chen Yun'er looked a little embarrassed.
But Lü Yao raised his arm and pressed down on Gu Xiaoshu's shoulder, suppressing Gu Xiaoshu's temper and the words she was about to say.
Lu Yao realized that this guy was trying to create a warm and caring image for himself, so Lu Yao laughed and said, "If you say I'm a scumbag, then I'll admit it. What's wrong with being a scumbag? Only handsome, considerate, and interesting men deserve to be scumbags. And most of the time, women's resentment towards scumbags stems from their impotent rage because the scumbag can't belong to them exclusively."
This intriguing statement caught Gu Xiaoshu's attention, and even Chen Yun'er's gaze towards Lü Yao became increasingly curious.
But Lü Yao's output wasn't over yet.
He stared at Li Qi'an, who was standing next to Chen Yun'er and trying to create a persona for her, and said with a handsome and warm smile, "And a warm guy like you..."
"They are usually placed after the dogs."
Li Qi'an's face turned bright red instantly after being mocked by Lü Yao!
