Chapter 21

Huang Zhong smiled and spread his hands.

"Really?"

Old Dian Wei was shocked.

"Really!"

Huang Zhong nodded firmly.

"Then that is truly amazing! It seems I have far underestimated my lord!"

Old Dian Wei exclaimed.

At this time, both of them discovered that the roasted exotic beast meat was decreasing rapidly, and they were suddenly anxious: "My lord, leave some meat! Leave some for us!"

"Haha! Don't panic! There's still plenty! Just keep roasting!"

Su Xuan laughed heartily.

At this time, he was fully operating the *Six Storehouses Swallowing Heaven Art*, quickly digesting the exotic beast meat in his stomach.

It had been half a month since he mastered the *Six Storehouses Swallowing Heaven Art*, and he had long since built the completion-level *Six Storehouses Swallowing Heaven Art* system.

His digestive ability had increased by more than ten times compared to the beginning.

The exotic beast meat was digested into pure Qi, blood, and life energy the moment it entered his stomach.

Then it was quickly absorbed by the cells all over his body.

His physique began to rise rapidly.

The Qi, blood, and vitality on his body also became thicker and thicker.

His tendons, bones, and physique were also being rapidly strengthened.

"Pop!"

With half an exotic beast in his stomach, Su Xuan broke through to the completion of Bright Strength without any bottleneck.

But he still didn't stop eating.

"This... he just broke through?"

Old Dian Wei and the scouts on the side were stunned upon seeing this.

Did it have to be so casual?

They also wanted to learn this kind of divine art!

"Don't even think about it!"

Huang Zhong on the side saw their thoughts and reminded them amusingly: "Divine arts are not so easy to cultivate!"

"Except for my lord, no one has ever learned it!"

"The cultivation conditions for this divine art are extremely harsh; normally, one needs Transformation Realm cultivation to have a chance of entering the door;"

"But this divine art is mainly for quickly accumulating Qi, blood, and vitality, accelerating breakthroughs before the Transformation Realm; for experts, it's a bit of a chicken rib!"

"Only a monster like my lord needs this kind of divine art."

Of course, Huang Zhong avoided the important and dwelt on the trivial, not explaining the true effect of the *Six Storehouses Swallowing Heaven Art*.

Su Xuan hadn't hidden the true effect of the divine art from him, so naturally, he couldn't betray Su Xuan's trust.

Instead, he had to cover for Su Xuan.

Of course, he himself hadn't learned this divine art yet.

Currently, Su Xuan's command had already built a relatively perfect merit exchange system.

To exchange for this divine art, even for an old veteran like him, he needed to establish enough merit and obtain enough merit points to exchange for it.

Huang Zhong and even Wen Pin had no objections to this.

On the contrary, they strongly supported this decision of Su Xuan's.

They felt that only in this way could rewards and punishments be clear, allowing the forces under their lord to develop and grow healthily.

"So that's it!"

Old Dian Wei was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this: "It seems I won't be able to use this divine art!"

"Moreover, I feel that learning this divine art makes one even less able to withstand hunger!"

"I am prone to hunger myself and eat a lot; if I really learned this kind of divine art, what would happen?"

The scouts also shook their heads one after another.

This divine art was likewise a chicken rib to them.

They couldn't learn it before the Transformation Realm, and they wouldn't need it after the Transformation Realm.

"Hehe!"

Huang Zhong took in their expressions and then said: "Of course, since this divine art is a divine art, it naturally has other wonders, but I won't mention them for now!"

"There is a Merit Hall under my lord's command; if you are really interested in the future, you can completely accumulate enough merit points to exchange for it; I believe you won't be disappointed when the time comes."

"Perhaps!"

Old Dian Wei and the others nodded noncommittally.

They didn't dwell on this issue anymore.

3 hours later,

Watching Su Xuan finish all the remaining exotic beast meat, even knowing this was the effect of the divine art, Old Dian Wei and the scouts still stared blankly at Su Xuan's still-flat stomach.

"After eating so much, his stomach doesn't even bulge?"

"Also, does he not need to use the latrine?"

Old Dian Wei asked a soul-searching question.

Su Xuan heard this, calmly took out a piece of toilet paper to wipe his hands and mouth, and said lightly: "This is one of the magical aspects of this divine art! It can thoroughly digest and convert food completely, without any residue;"

"Alright! Wait for me for a moment, I want to break through again!"

As he spoke, under the dumbfounded expressions of Old Dian Wei and the others, Su Xuan walked to an empty space on the side and began to practice the *Returning Origin Art*.

"Really or fake? Breaking through again? Can breakthroughs come one after another? Does my lord have no bottlenecks?"

Old Dian Wei asked Huang Zhong on the side in astonishment.

Huang Zhong calmly reached out and patted Old Dian Wei on the shoulder to comfort him: "Just get used to it! My lord is a heavenly being descended to earth; don't be surprised by any miracles that appear on him; this is just my lord's routine operation!"

Old Dian Wei: "......"

How can one get used to this kind of thing?

On Su Xuan's side,

One round of the *Returning Origin Art* was completed.

"Crack, crack!"

He successfully mastered Dark Strength and stepped into the early stage of Dark Strength.

He punched the tree trunk in front of him.

Immediately, a deep pit appeared on the surface of the tree trunk, but more importantly, the interior of the tree trunk had been shattered.

"Crack, crack, crack... Boom!"

That large tree, as thick as a bowl, broke directly from the punch mark and collapsed to the ground with a bang.

"Dark Strength! Success! Haha!"

Su Xuan laughed heartily, looked up at the sky, found that it was nearing dusk, immediately walked toward Old Dian Wei and the others, and waved: "Alright! It's going to be dark, we should set off!"

"Yes!"

Huang Zhong and the others immediately packed their things, left the forest, and then got on their horses to rush to Jiwu City.

For the sake of Old Dian Wei's safety and to avoid trouble.

Su Xuan simply had the caravan leave the city and set up camp on a flat ground ten miles outside the city, making do for the night.

Early the next morning, after morning exercises and breakfast,

The crowd set off again, first heading to Chen Liu City to meet Zhang Miao.

They presented a generous gift and explained their purpose.

"Haha!"

Zhang Miao laughed heartily upon hearing this: "So it's this matter; I agree!"

As he spoke, he looked at Old Dian Wei behind Su Xuan and said with appreciation: "This must be the brave warrior Old Dian, right? I have heard of your deeds long ago!" ===== CHAPTER 43 =====
