Chapter 56

On the way back to the Gong Family estate, Chen Yi ate a strip of beast meat. As the meat entered his stomach, it transformed into wisps of energy that rapidly replenished his inner force and Qi and Blood Power. But unlike usual, for some reason, the energy from the beast meat was being consumed at an extremely fast rate. At first, Chen Yi thought it was because he had practiced the Vajra Skill three times in a row today, leading to an exceptionally high consumption rate and thus faster absorption. Upon closer inspection, however, he realized that while this was partly the reason, an even bigger factor was that the muscle groups he had exercised today—especially those he had worked through a third time accompanied by the Breathing Technique—were absorbing roughly ten percent more total energy than usual.
