Chapter 253: Digestion

"Continue, continue."

Who knows how a molar the size of a knuckle stores such a massive amount of spiritual energy.

The red glow of the bloodline at its root shone ever brighter.

Twenty minutes passed.

As time elapsed, the spiritual energy pouring in grew ever more immense.

Half the spiritual energy remained inside the molar.

But Rod really couldn't take it anymore.

A sensation of swelling and stretching came from every part of his body.

It was somewhat uncomfortable.

The amount of spiritual energy being infused even exceeded the efficiency of the body's absorption.

The aptitude raised by the spiritual seed was equivalent to the upper limit of what the body could hold, while the breathing technique was the tool for fusing spiritual energy into the flesh.

In this situation, the breathing technique was simply failing.

But there was nothing to be done.

After all, the focus of the 【Elibert's Fun Love Secret Manual】 he was currently using was on the bed; only by interacting with girls could it reach Dao Zui Da Gong.

"That's about enough. You can't get fat in one bite; just save the rest and use it slowly."

Rod smiled.

He detached the molar earring.

"Truly worthy of a treasure-class item, it directly saved me a long period of accumulating spiritual energy. Hmm?"

The infusion effect of the treasure did not stop.

He looked up in shock.

The molar earring stuck to his hand, its red glow undiminished.

I shake, I shake.

It wouldn't shake off.

I pull.

It came off, but the infusion suddenly accelerated.

Rod hurriedly gripped it in his hand.

A bead of cold sweat appeared at his temple.

"Does this mean I have to use it all at once?? That's a bit unreasonable, buddy!"

No.

If this continues, I'll burst from the spiritual energy!

I can only desperately absorb all the spiritual energy!

Without hesitation, Rod took off his pants and pushed Tally out from inside his clothes.

The succubus was instantly woken up, her eyes sleepy and her lips pouting.

"What is it, hmm-ah~~~~"

【Elibert's Fun Love Secret Manual】 spun wildly.

To accelerate, he picked her up entirely.

He stood up and thrust.

Tally was overjoyed and adjusted her posture very cooperatively.

"Wha-what's wrong~~ Master~~ Why are you so excited~~ today~~"

"Something unexpected came up; pay attention to digesting the spiritual energy I gave you."

"Huh?" Her joyful face fell. "What about the loving smut you promised? I want you to say you love me, I want you to bite my ear. Not this spiritual energy."

Rod really had no time to attend to her.

One Tally was far from enough to digest the current spiritual energy.

He immediately used the 【Chain of Far Speech】 to notify the tree spirit Vivian, urgently asking her to come over and help at once.

At the same time, based on the tolerance of the several girls, he instantly allocated the time in his mind.

He had Pan Ni, Miss Xiao Ke, and Amy prepare at different times and different locations, and demanded they warm up in advance.

【Pan Ni: I-I have been preparing every night! I also bought a new cream that makes the skin smoother! Please, Master, you absolutely must come and taste it!】

【Miss Xiao Ke: Hmph! Who do you think you are! Just because you say come out, I come out? Something unexpected?! I-I'm coming right away! Waaah, please don't die! You can do whatever you want to me, waaah...】

【Amy: Okay~~ Can I not take a bath, Master? Ah—No, I can't?】

Five minutes later.

Vivian pushed open the ranger's cabin anxiously.

On the beast-skin sofa in the living room, Tally was being treated very brutally.

Perhaps the soul shock was too intense; she no longer cared whether her master contained love.

The unprecedented intensity made her dazed, losing her bearings.

She could only cling tightly to her own master.

So that when she saw Vivian.

Tally displayed an unusual possessiveness from before; her face turned bright red, her eyes dazed.

"Get away! Tree spirit! This is mine! All of it is mine!"

But Rod, in order to digest the spiritual energy, could not care about these things.

He pulled Vivian into the battlefield.

The ranger's cabin instantly erupted with cries rising and falling.

He didn't know how long it had been.

Rod burst out of the ranger's cabin at top speed.

He carved open a green spiritual passage on the nearest tree trunk.

When he appeared again, he was already beside a secluded tree hollow in the Dawn Redwood zone.

The half-deer Miss Xiao Ke saw him.

Tears streamed down her flushed cheeks, her hands twisting together in panic.

"I'm not doing this for you—if you died, Little Little Bangde would be heartbroken. Come on."

She turned around, a practiced allure already in place.

He didn't know how long it had been.

Rod brought the exhausted Miss Xiao Ke to Selina's cabin and asked her to look after her.

The dedicated zombie was still crafting rings at this moment.

She took the half-deer girl, who was covered in the stuff, with an expressionless face and calm eyes.

"You're not wearing pants, my noble and devoted master."

"No time."

Rod waved a hand, feeling the spiritual essence surging once more.

He glanced at the zombie and recalled Tally's assessment—"Down there it's like a slab of frozen dead meat, can't pry it apart no matter what."

He gave up helplessly.

He hurried once more using 【Tree Walker】 to reach Henry's Farm.

He smashed straight through the window and arrived on the second floor.

Pan Ni was smearing cream all over herself; the moment she saw Rod, she immediately got excited.

She spread her arms wide to welcome her master.

He didn't know how long it had been.

Rod withdrew.

Ignoring Pan Ni twitching at the bedside, he leaped out of the cabin at Henry's Farm.

Using Tree Walker once more, he arrived at the little stream beside the Willow zone.

By now the sky was already faintly bright.

The female beastman Aimy was at the stream's edge, sculpting magnificent and exquisite clay figures from mud and stream water.

She immediately spotted her master and shouted joyfully.

"Master, look! My clay sculptures! Amazing. Mmph!"

She didn't get to finish.

Her mouth was gagged.

Why was Aimy scheduled for last?

On one hand, Aimy had risen to seventh-tier, and during this period, due to serious injuries and contracting beast-fever, Rod had rarely interacted with her—her endurance was unknown.

If she were placed first after Tally and Vivian, the later arrangements would be hard to manage.

On the other hand, after all, she was a sinner.

Naturally, such a fine thing as spiritual essence had to be saved for later.

Pan Ni was the same way.

In short.

As full morning finally arrived, Rod had once again smoothly resolved a crisis.

"Ai-Aimy still hasn't lost."

The female beastman's pretty face showed unwillingness; she wanted to stand up and keep fighting.

But her trembling, powerless legs had already betrayed her, and she collapsed to the ground in an instant.

Rod tossed his sweat-soaked shirt onto the ground and put on Aimy's shorts.

He stretched lazily, then puffed a breath toward the sky with full vigor.

Refreshed and clear-headed.

Spiritual essence accumulation: peak of sixth-tier.

Moreover, once he set his path, he could break straight into seventh-tier in one go.

Not only that—halfway through, he finally remembered that the 【Dragon Ming Xiang Fa】 he possessed was also quite a fine piece of work.

Mana accumulation smoothly reached the middle of fifth-tier.

Actually, meditation requires a certain focus, and focusing on meditation in the middle of the act is rather difficult.

At first Rod also had a hard time succeeding, but afterward, as long as he held one posture—

Letting the sprint be driven by the body's instinct, while he focused on meditating.

It was like drawing a circle with one hand and a square with the other.

Drawing the circle was easy—just maintain the momentum and keep attention on drawing the square.

After failing a few times this way, he quickly succeeded.
