Chapter 359 Technology and Spiritual Energy, Golden Pill -10% "Yes!!" The fox nodded, then turned over and ran down the mountain at a very fast speed. Seeing this, Du Ruo no longer hesitated, opened his mouth, and then sucked hard. "Hu~~" Following Du Ruo's actions, a bitterly cold wind began to blow from the originally calm sky above the top of Mount Huangshan. Du Ruo's inhaling action is actually not necessary, it is just a subconscious action. He felt the effect of absorbing spiritual energy in this way last time was good, so he absorbed spiritual energy in the same way this time. In fact, there is a prerequisite for Du Ruo's plundering and absorption of spiritual energy. That is, Du Ruo needs to use his own spirit to drive his mind, and then his mind will absorb the spiritual energy within the range of its activities for Du Ruo to absorb. After all, although spiritual energy is called spiritual energy, it is not any kind of gas detected today, nor is it directly integrated into the air, and it cannot be swallowed into the stomach just by inhaling by anyone.
The spiritual energy came from the void, and no one knew whether it was left by the heaven and earth, or whether it had been like this before, but some of this spiritual energy would fall into the space behind the door. Du Ruo suspected that this part was originally supposed to be the reward that heaven and earth wanted to give to the managers in heaven, that is, the gods. However, these managers were sealed and disappeared, leaving this part to Du Ruo as a reward for promoting the development of spiritual energy. The rest will come out of the portal, but this aura is not gas or liquid. These spiritual energies naturally dissipated after leaving the portal, as if they could travel through space and spread to any place with the sunlight or moonlight. In fact, it is difficult for everyone to sense spiritual energy. Even if they inhale it into the body unintentionally, they cannot truly integrate it into the body and use it to strengthen themselves. "Aura" seems to have its own frequency or channel. Only a small number of creatures can be favored by a small number of auras and then actively integrate them into their bodies. These included some animals, plants, and a small number of people, but Du Ruo had never seen this kind of spiritual energy actively attach and integrate. Practicing martial arts and meditation is such a process of finding frequencies and channels, consuming one's own "essence, energy and spirit" to resonate with the spiritual energy, and then the spiritual energy is attracted and in turn makes up for the lack of these "essence, energy and spirit". In this process, the spiritual energy feeds back, allowing the "essence, energy and spirit" to better match the frequency of the spiritual energy, attract more spiritual energy, and ultimately achieve the purpose of utilizing the spiritual energy. Of course, these do not include Du Ruo. Du Ruo's previous practice did not have any spiritual energy replenishment, and he could only rely on large amounts of food or meat, as well as medicinal wine and pills to make up for his own losses. The most important thing was that Du Ruo had a system at that time that could directly use spiritual energy to add points to him. What Du Ruo is doing now is forcibly plundering spiritual energy for his own use. "Huhuhu~~" As the cold wind blew, Du Ruo's clothes were blown, and in the sky, a large amount of spiritual energy contained behind the door, like a long dragon, rushed into Du Ruo's mouth. The spiritual energy itself cannot be seen with the naked eye, but as Du Ruo absorbed it vigorously, the fox standing on a large platform in the distance actually vaguely saw a long dragon made of mist being sucked into Du Ruo's mouth. "How is it?? Are you able to sense it?" When the fox saw this scene, he realized that the long dragon made of mist was probably spiritual energy. He immediately looked at a group of staff who were busy on the side and began to ask questions. Ever since Du Ruo said he wanted to break through, a series of things have been done and prepared, the most important of which was to try to conduct a series of research on "spiritual energy". The emergence of spiritual energy has been going on for nearly half a year. From the very beginning, a large amount of funding has been allocated and a large number of scientific researchers have been recruited to study it. In the beginning, they were just looking for things containing spiritual energy and trying to study it.
These people spent enormous amounts of manpower and resources just to find this invisible and intangible spiritual energy. It’s a pity that there has been no progress, let alone finding it, and even no trace of spiritual energy can be felt. Today is a very important opportunity. Seeing that the spiritual energy seemed to be turning into substance and entering Du Ruo's mouth, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these scientific researchers. "Wait, wait a little longer. The machine is running, and all this spiritual energy comes from the sky, without any leakage... wait a little longer..." The researcher stared at the screen intently, but found nothing on it. Reluctantly, he looked up again. His eyesight was not as good as the fox's, but he could still see Du Ruo standing on the top of the mountain. Under the moonlight, he could see the hazy mist in the sky that kept flying into Du Ruo's mouth. In fact, there are not only the fox and this one researcher on the big square. On every platform on the surrounding hills, there is a group of such researchers using various equipment and instruments to try to capture and find the existence of spiritual energy. ……
……
……
…… Du Ruo's body was really like a bottomless pit, and Du Ruo seemed to not need to breathe. He opened his mouth and kept swallowing all the absorbed spiritual energy into his stomach. At the same time, on the panel in front of Du Ruo, the progress bar of the golden elixir was also changing rapidly, but as the data increased, more and more spiritual energy was required, and the number increased more and more slowly. However, Du Ruo did not focus his attention on the panel, but carefully sensed the spiritual energy he absorbed into his body. Logically speaking, after spiritual energy enters the body, it will immediately integrate into every cell of the body, making the body stronger and the "essence" more abundant. Then Du Ruo transformed the essence into qi, used the qi to drive the soul, and completely digested the spiritual energy with the "essence, qi and spirit". This is also in line with the ordinary people's absorption of spiritual energy. However, ordinary people will spit out most of the spiritual energy that they cannot absorb and integrate it into the heaven and earth, and they can only absorb a very small part of it themselves. However, after these spiritual energies entered Du Ruo's body, before they could even be absorbed into the body, the three flowers sublimated from Du Ruo's "essence, energy and spirit" on his head and the five energies that had been accumulating in his chest directly plundered and divided the spiritual energy. The three flowers on Du Ruo's head originally bloomed like a canopy, covering Du Ruo. However, as more and more spiritual energy was infused, the three flowers began to shrink and condense, and slowly approached Du Ruo's body. The last time Du Ruo absorbed spiritual energy, there was too little of it. After absorbing it, there wasn't much difference except that he was more in tune with the heaven and earth. "Huh? No more?" Du Ruo, who was observing the "three flowers and five qi" in his body with his soul, was suddenly stunned. He watched the three flowers slowly getting closer and closer to the top of his head, and the five qi that had originally returned to his body began to slowly break away from its limit. However, he found that the absorption of spiritual energy was interrupted. "What's going on? The spiritual energy I just absorbed is definitely a hundred times more than the last time. Why is the progress bar only now?" Du Ruo stopped absorbing spiritual energy and opened his eyes, but what he saw was a progress bar of displayed on the panel. "The higher the progress bar goes, the more spiritual energy is needed. Perhaps this is the reason why the "gods" and "immortals" fought in ancient times." Du Ruo was no longer discouraged when he saw the progress bar. He originally thought that the spiritual energy last time would be enough to bring the progress bar to 1%. Now that the spiritual energy is more than a hundred times richer, perhaps it would be able to directly bring the progress bar to 100%. He was even ready to become an immortal, but he didn't expect the progress bar to only reach . So immediately, he thought of the core reason for the war between immortals and gods. There weren't so many people practicing at that time. Even if their practice level was much higher, the amount of spiritual energy they could attract was definitely limited.
The spiritual energy required to become an immortal is too much, and the spiritual energy absorbed is simply not enough to satisfy these immortal cultivators, so they will definitely turn their attention to the heaven. After all, gods do not need to practice cultivation. They only need to manage the world step by step, then gain merit, and then use merit to improve their status in the world, so that they can gain more control over the spiritual energy of the world. Therefore, disputes between the two sides are inevitable. "It seems that this is a very important link. If this contradiction is not handled well, I am afraid that the war between immortals and gods is inevitable." Du Ruo's thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, but he quickly suppressed them in his heart. It was a bit early for this kind of thing to happen now. He would have to wait until he officially became an immortal and figured it out before he could find a solution to the problem. "Since the spiritual energy behind the door is gone, all we can do now is to borrow the spiritual energy from this world." Just as Du Ruo said, the immortals needed too much spiritual energy to improve their strength. Seeing that the progress bar was almost reaching the next stage, even if no one in this world would compete with Du Ruo for it, Du Ruo couldn't help but set his sights on the spiritual energy floating in the heaven and earth. Of course, Du Ruo didn't need to borrow much. He had long felt that this progress would be able to solve the problems he needed to solve now. I originally thought that I could become an immortal, but now it seems that the progress bar needs to reach 10%. In fact, this did not disappoint Du Ruo. After all, he had never thought that it would be so easy to become an immortal. Du Ruo's mind was full of thoughts, but in fact, it only took the blink of an eye. "Mr. Du, is it over?" The fox standing in the distance saw that all the movements had ended, and the researchers nearby had not made any progress. This made her unable to help but ask loudly. She herself didn't know why she asked the question, but the researchers nearby looked at her with expectation, so she gritted her teeth and spoke. "No! We've only just begun." Du Ruo did not look at the fox and those people. Instead, he gently uttered a few words and slowly closed his eyes. The soul drives the mind to collect spiritual energy everywhere within the range, while the body raises its head, opens its mouth, and inhales. "call!!!" If Du Ruo's previous inhalation only slightly moved the surrounding air, then this inhalation seemed to directly stir up the entire world. With the crucian carp back where Du Ruo was standing as the center, it first expanded to a radius of several miles, and then slowly spread to the surrounding areas. It seemed as if countless thin snakes were being driven by the wind and clouds in the sky. When the strong wind came around Du Ruo, they began to disperse. Only those thin snake-like mists entered Du Ruo's mouth and then disappeared. The sky within a radius of several kilometers, dozens of kilometers, tens of kilometers, and hundreds of kilometers is slowly changing, but the changes are not very obvious, and no very severe storm has formed. It's just that all the winds are blowing in the same direction. At the foot of Huangshan Mountain, on the second-floor balcony of Du Ruo's home. Xiang Yuanyuan was wearing thick pajamas and a thick blanket on her shoulders. She stood on the balcony, letting the wind blow her hair, her eyes looking towards the peak of Mount Huangshan. She knew that all this must have been done by Du Ruo. "You said that my husband will definitely be safe." Xiang Yuanyuan stood there, grabbing Hu Xianfeng's big ears with her hands, muttering something. No matter how safe Du Ruo told her it was and that there would be no danger, she couldn't help feeling uneasy as long as Du Ruo left. "Hoho~~" Tiger Vanguard opened its mouth and let out a low roar. It was called back by Du Ruo these few days. Just after Xiang Yuanyuan got up, it followed her. Now Xiang Yuanyuan was pulling its ears, making it unable to help but shake its head and roar. "Eh? Forget it, let's go back to the room. Tiger Vanguard, just wait here."
It was not known whether it was because of the wind or the roar of Tiger Pioneer just now, but the baby in Xiang Yuanyuan's belly kicked her. Xiang Yuanyuan supported her waist, touched Tiger Pioneer's big head, then retracted her gaze and walked towards the warm house. …… Du Ruo's mind was constantly collecting the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. It might be more appropriate to say plundering it rather than collecting it. As the spiritual energy around Du Ruo was plundered, Du Ruo began to expand his scope. Originally, the areas where Du Ruo's mind could be active were very limited, but with the absorption of spiritual energy this time, Du Ruo found that the range of his mind's activities had become larger. Compared with the previous range of nearly 100 miles in diameter within Duruo, I don’t know how much the distance has been expanded. The mind is the most active and the most curious, and after being separated from the soul too far, the mind will inevitably become distracted again. Fortunately, his mind still knew its purpose. While wandering around the world or the city, he did not forget to move the plundered spiritual energy to Du Ruo. “I have a reaction here!!!” The fox looked at Du Ruo on the top of the mountain, who was closing his eyes and swallowing in spiritual energy. Some of the surrounding pine trees were bent by the wind. At this moment, a voice came from the walkie-talkie. “Detected!!” "We also detected a special particle!!!" “I just don’t know if it’s spiritual energy!!!” "Try to catch it first!!!" Soon after, more information entered the fox's ears through the walkie-talkie. Fox didn't show much expression after listening to this. She was not a scientific researcher and was not very interested in these things, but she also knew that this matter was very important. She just didn't know how long Du Ruo's current state would last. However, Du Ruo remained in this state for nearly an hour. The information transmitted through Fox's intercom and even walkie-talkie was no longer just information from the surrounding scientific researchers. There were also senior leaders asking her about Du Ruo's current situation. They were not worried about whether Du Ruo could break through or make progress, but they were worried about the possibility of a huge disaster around Huangshan. Because according to photos sent from satellites in space, a spiral cloud layer with an area of more than 100,000 square kilometers has formed in the sky with Huangshan Mountain as the center. What does it mean? A huge spiral cloud is covering an area of 200 kilometers in radius with Huangshan as the center. This is a spiral cloud range that can only be found in a typhoon with wind force 16 at the center. If such a situation occurs at sea or even on the coast, it will not be considered a major disaster as long as we have a response plan in place. But if it is placed inland and without any precautions, it may cause a huge disaster. "..." The fox didn't know how to answer for a moment, because she was at the top of Huangshan Mountain, and apart from the strong wind, there was no sign of the center of a typhoon. What's more... the top of Huangshan Mountain was often so windy. But the fox knew that the higher-ups would definitely not lie to her. She raised her head, swallowed her saliva, and looked at the clouds in the sky through the moonlight. They were indeed like a whirlpool, only covering an area of more than 100,000 square kilometers. She found it hard to imagine that this could be caused by human power. After all, the entire Huangshan Mountain is only 160 square kilometers.
More than 100,000 square kilometers can almost cover the entire Anhui Province. The fox stood there and opened his mouth several times, not knowing whether he should call Du Ruo. But she quickly restrained herself. The higher-ups were just asking about the situation. Although the clouds were changing when viewed from space, that was all. Moreover, she was at the center and didn't notice anything unusual, so she just had to wait quietly for something to happen. Du Ruo's family were all around Huangshan, and Du Ruo would definitely not fail to consider the consequences. Du Ruo's mind seemed tireless, constantly transferring the spiritual energy that he had plundered into his mouth, and the range was getting larger and larger. Golden Elixir - 10% Finally, the panel in front of him jumped, and Du Ruo, with his eyes closed and mouth open, noticed a change in his body. The three flowers on the top of his head had already merged into his body, but Du Ruo could still see them as long as he closed his eyes. But now the three flowers are no longer radiant, but rather restrained, with wisps of mist diffused among the flowers. As the three flowers entered the body, the mind that was originally busy with the world outside was sucked back in an instant and returned to the body, but it was no longer silent and waiting for the soul to drive it. Instead, it and the soul merged into the "three flowers" in the body. For a moment, Du Ruo was not sure whether his soul and mind were swallowed by the three flowers of "essence, energy and spirit" or his soul and mind took the initiative to merge with the three flowers of "essence, energy and spirit". But he could feel that his own spirit was solidifying and his mind was becoming more agile. After a while, Du Ruo's soul and mind returned to their respective positions, but Du Ruo felt that the world had become clearer. Du Ruo was originally planning to test out the changes in his soul and mind that had improved this time, but suddenly, he felt a slight chill around him and heard a voice in the distance. "How is it? Did you capture the spiritual energy?" When the fox saw that there was no more snake-like mist entering Du Ruo's mouth, she knew that Du Ruo had temporarily stopped practicing, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. Du Ruo's cultivation was really terrifying. It was more than just a little noisy. Fortunately, they did it at night. If it was done during the day, who knows how big an impact it would have caused. "No, we detected it, but it was fleeting and we couldn't catch it." Various replies came in one after another from the intercom, but in the end there was only one piece of information, which was that they could only detect it but could not capture it at all.
