Chapter 32: Mobile Phone

After seeing Facing Facing Cang Luo, Zang Feng, and the other two return safely to the camp, Facing Facing Cang Luo returned to the Beast Mountain Forest, used the Satellite to find a relatively hidden and safe spot, where at least within a few hundred meters, no beasts or humans could be seen.

Looking left and right, and confirming once more that there was no danger, Facing Facing Cang Luo took the flying claw hanging from his body into his hand.

The hooks of the flying claw were made from the three tail hooks of a Three-Tailed Giant Scorpion, while the rope part was replaced by a tree vine with a diameter of about one centimeter.

It was over 50 meters long in total, its quality no worse than Earth's climbing ropes, and it was full of toughness.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Facing Facing Cang Luo swung the flying claw, aimed at a hundred-meter-tall giant fir tree, and with a "Whoosh," threw the flying claw out, successfully hooking it onto a wide branch 40 meters up the giant fir.

Tightening the rope, he ascended to the heavens in one step!

Having become a Wu Shi, Facing Facing Cang Luo climbed to the branch in just over ten seconds.

After sitting firmly, Facing Facing Cang Luo put away the flying claw and the broken iron sword, then took out two demon cores.

Looking at the demon cores, Facing Facing Cang Luo hesitated for a while, wondering whether to return and refine them into pills to consume, or to swallow them directly?

Liu Xuande, a member of the Han Imperial Clan, had said that refining them into pills made the medicinal effects easier to absorb.

After thinking for a long time, Facing Facing Cang Luo realized that refining pills might require money and other auxiliary medicinal herbs, so he decided to swallow them directly.

No hesitation, swallow in one gulp!

"Ugh... a bit sour, sticky, truly disgusting."

One minute after swallowing the demon core, Facing Facing Cang Luo felt a slight warmth in his abdomen, followed by a massive surge of Yuan Force spreading violently throughout his body.

Three parts ran into the Lower Dantian, while seven parts spread throughout the body, turning into sweat and slowly leaking out of the body.

Facing Facing Cang Luo was stunned, asking in confusion: "The Yuan Force entering the body can actually be lost? No wonder they need to be refined into pills."

Facing Facing Cang Luo quickly circulated his mental technique to gather the Yuan Force scattered throughout his body into the Lower Dantian; unfortunately, the effect was minimal, but better than nothing.

As the mental technique circulated, the Yuan Wheel inside the Lower Dantian began to spin wildly.

The Yuan Force generated by the demon cores also began to rotate, forming a Yuan Force vortex; this vortex spun faster and faster, vaguely on the verge of condensing into a brand new Yuan Wheel...

Three hours later, five-tenths of the Yuan Force produced by the two demon cores was absorbed by Facing Facing Cang Luo, while the other five-tenths was wasted in the form of sweating.

Facing Facing Cang Luo gazed inward at his Lower Dantian, seeing four Yuan Wheels floating steadily within it, rotating slowly.

Facing Facing Cang Luo was overjoyed and couldn't help but say: "Great, finally Warrior Stage 4 cultivation; the Yuan Force content has increased by nearly double."

If nothing unexpected happens, at this speed, I should be able to become a Wu Jiang in less than half a month, right?

Ugh... it can't be this easy, can it?"

Facing Facing Cang Luo was frightened by his own cultivation speed.

Thinking of Li Zhanxing, who had said it took him over three months to reach Warrior Stage 3, what would he think if he knew I transformed from an ordinary person to a Warrior Stage 4 Wu Shi in just three days?

Wouldn't he bang his head against the wall?

Suppressing his smile, Facing Facing Cang Luo circulated the Thunderous Palm to test its power.

At this moment, Facing Facing Cang Luo could feel that the power of this Thunderous Palm was at least double what it was when he sparred with the Three-Tailed Giant Scorpion.

Not only that, Facing Facing Cang Luo could also feel four currents of electricity stored and ready to fire within his arm, as if about to break out of his body.

"Electricity? Charging?"

Suddenly struck by a flash of inspiration, Facing Facing Cang Luo immediately pulled out his mobile phone.

He had originally chosen the Lightning-type technique to solve the problem of charging his mobile phone; he wondered if the electricity generated by the Thunderous Palm could charge the phone?

Facing Facing Cang Luo acted on his thought, holding the powered-off mobile phone in his left hand while continuously circulating the Thunderous Palm with his right hand, condensing the electricity in his arm to the tip of his little finger.

After making preparations, Facing Facing Cang Luo extended his little finger toward the phone's charging port, intending to input electricity into it.

"Wait, what if the electricity from the Thunderous Palm is too strong and burns the phone out?"

This phone's charger is 5V/2A, which is a very small current; normally, touching the data port of a plugged-in cable with bare hands is fine.

If the current is too large, it might even explode."

Considering the issue of current magnitude, Facing Facing Cang Luo decided to conduct an experiment on himself first to test the power of the Thunderous Palm's electricity.

Facing Facing Cang Luo rolled up his pant leg, lightly tapped his little finger against the skin of his lower leg, then circulated the Thunderous Palm to guide a current of electricity toward the tip of his little finger.

The instant the electricity touched his lower leg, Facing Facing Cang Luo immediately shivered, and then saw a small charred red wound appear on his lower leg, caused by an electric shock.

"Damn! Fortunately, I was cautious, otherwise the only mobile phone in the Yuan Wu Continent would have been destroyed by my own hand."

Although the current wasn't very large, it was still beyond what the phone could withstand; blindly charging it would only destroy the phone.

What should be done?

While thinking of a solution, Facing Facing Cang Luo mobilized Yuan Force to his lower leg to heal the wound caused by the electric shock.

This method of treating injuries was discovered by him during his battle with the Three-Tailed Giant Scorpion.

Watching the wound gradually heal, Facing Facing Cang Luo suddenly recalled a detail.

Why didn't Li Zhanxing and the others use Yuan Force to treat injuries? Could it be that their Yuan Force cannot be used to recover from injuries?

At this moment, Facing Facing Cang Luo recalled the words spoken by the steward who had tried to cheat him when he was selecting techniques at the Technique Pavilion.

That steward had said that although Yuan Force in nature has no attribute distinction, once absorbed into the Lower Dantian by a Wu Shi circulating a mental technique, it acquires attribute distinctions.

The transformation of Yuan Force from having no attribute to having an attribute is actually a process where the mental technique converts the Yuan Force during absorption; mental techniques and Yuan Force of different attributes have different characteristics and effects.

For example, Water-attribute and Wood-attribute mental techniques recover Yuan Force the fastest.

Not only that, the Water-attribute and Wood-attribute Yuan Force absorbed by these two types of mental techniques can also be used to treat injuries.

Facing Facing Cang Luo murmured to himself: "In other words, Wu Shi who cultivate these two types of attribute mental techniques are natural healers?"

Then why can the Yuan Force I absorb using the Lightning Qi Art also be used to treat injuries? The Lightning Qi Art is a Lightning-attribute mental technique!"

Confused, Facing Facing Cang Luo mobilized his Yuan Consciousness to gaze inward at his Lower Dantian.

Upon this inward gaze, Facing Facing Cang Luo suddenly understood; he saw that two types of Yuan Force actually existed within his Lower Dantian.

One was the Lightning-attribute Yuan Force absorbed by the Lightning Qi Art, pale blue in color.

The other was the attribute-less Yuan Force transmitted to him by the Satellite in infinite quantity, milky white in color.

This attribute-less primordial force provided by the satellite was considerably purer than the primordial force found in nature—in simple terms, it was pollution-free.

What Facing Facing Cang Luo had just used to restore the wound on his calf was precisely the satellite's attribute-less primordial force.

With the wound healed as if it had never been there, Facing Facing Cang Luo was so overjoyed he was at a loss for what to do, and said excitedly, "In other words, the ability to heal wounds is actually also granted by the satellite.

Otherwise, why has no one ever used attribute-less primordial force from nature to heal wounds?"

"I wonder what level of wounds this healing ability can restore? Can it regenerate limbs? Can it heal others?

Uh... I can't exactly experiment by hurting myself, can I?

The charging failed, but discovering a new ability isn't a loss either."

Facing Facing Cang Luo was quite content—if it couldn't charge, then so be it, he'd figure something out later.

So Facing Facing Cang Luo put away his phone and began looking for a demon beast to fight, but just then, a possibility suddenly occurred to him.

"Lightning-attribute primordial force should also carry a certain degree of positive and negative electrons, right?

The phone can't handle the current from Thundering Palm, but what about lightning-attribute primordial force? Primordial force that hasn't been output as a martial technique shouldn't have any power, right?"

Those words jolted him awake like a dreamer startled from sleep. After sorting out the concept of primordial force, Facing Facing Cang Luo took out his phone again.

He didn't experiment further—directly aiming his little fingertip at the phone's charging port, he slowly channeled an extremely thin and faint wisp of lightning-attribute primordial force into it.

A faint blue stream of lightning-attribute primordial force could be seen with the naked eye, trickling drop by drop from Facing Facing Cang Luo's fingertip through the phone's charging port and into the phone.

No current was produced, and not even a spark appeared.

The heart suspended in Facing Facing Cang Luo's chest was temporarily set at ease—at least the phone wasn't broken. He continued channeling lightning-attribute primordial force.

After a long while, Facing Facing Cang Luo saw that the phone was still black-screened with no reaction whatsoever, and felt a bit disappointed.

But Facing Facing Cang Luo didn't give up, choosing to add a trace more primordial force before channeling again.

One minute later, the phone still showed no response......

Facing Facing Cang Luo paused, checked the phone up and down to confirm it wasn't broken, then resumed channeling primordial force.

This time the amount of lightning-attribute primordial force was double the previous amount, but the phone still showed no response......

Facing Facing Cang Luo began to doubt whether lightning-attribute primordial force could actually be used for charging, but for now this was the only method.

He could only increase the primordial force and keep channeling—desperate times, desperate measures.

And so, for safety's sake, Facing Facing Cang Luo increased the output by only one percent each time, carefully channeling lightning-attribute primordial force into the phone.

He didn't know how long it took, but fortunately, hard work pays off.

After dozens of attempts, the phone screen suddenly lit up. A battery icon displaying "Charging" popped up in the center of the screen with a jolt, and kept pulsing.

"Hahaha!"

Facing Facing Cang Luo laughed heartily at the sky, so excited that he nearly interrupted the channeling of primordial force into the phone.

"What a great day is today? Not only did I discover that limitless primordial force can be used to heal wounds, I also discovered that lightning-attribute primordial force can be used for charging. Heaven treats me well!"

40%......

79%......

100%......

It only took one minute!

A 4000 mAh battery had actually been fully charged!

What kind of efficiency is this?

Charge for one minute, watch videos for ten hours?

Facing Facing Cang Luo stared dumbfounded at the fully charged phone, then pressed the power button......
