Chapter 41

Ning Yi watched Gao Huan leave, feeling secretly pleased. He then abandoned the areas he was supposed to search and instead looked for the book he wanted.

Sure enough, when he flipped through the books on this shelf, he found that they were all about the mysterious particles, neutrinos, dark energy, and antimatter emitted during a supernova explosion, and their possible connection to the formation of inner energy. It was clear that humans had been trying to link the phenomenon of martial artists to dark energy several decades ago.

However, most of these books were in foreign languages, such as Latin, English, and even Arabic, with very few in Chinese. It seemed that as Chinese people, they preferred to view these scientifically inexplicable phenomena as gifts from heaven, hence the term "inner energy."

Ning Yi flipped through about twenty books and soon found the first one written in Russian. After a quick glance, he found it quite interesting. The book suggested that inner energy might originate from a massive star in a nearby galaxy that had collapsed and exploded, emitting mysterious particles that radiated the Blue Water Planet and destroyed the ozone layer.

Some of these mysterious particles penetrated the atmosphere and directly radiated humans, leading to genetic mutations about fifty years ago, resulting in some people developing special powers far beyond those of ordinary humans.

This was the closest description to the truth among the books Ning Yi had read. He just needed to replace the mysterious particles with mysterious dark energy.

However, this book was not what he was looking for, but finding it meant he was getting closer to his goal.

Sure enough, after flipping through about forty to fifty more books, Ning Yi found a book with a leather cover, covered in dust, in a corner. The title "Темноеэнергии" (Dark Energy) caught his eye.

"Found it!" Ning Yi was pleasantly surprised. He quickly looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then quietly pulled out the book. The author was Kosinov.

Ning Yi opened the book and briefly looked at the table of contents. As expected, it discussed the relationship between dark energy and inner energy. Ning Yi flipped through it carefully and found that the theories inside were somewhat vague, or perhaps his Russian wasn't good enough to fully understand them. However, the overall content was not wrong and was similar to what Feng Yingkong had said.

However, the most important part was what Ning Yi found at the end of the book—about seven or eight extra pages written in Chinese!

"Dark Energy Absorption Technique: Utilizing the principle of the indivisibility of mysterious entangled particles, if a person possesses special mysterious entangled particles, they can use the helical effect of these particles to forcibly absorb and assimilate the mutated dark energy particles from others or from energy crystals."

This was the fundamental principle of the energy absorption technique.

As he read on, Ning Yi found something even more exciting—how to control the energy absorption.

"Mutated energy particles have a destructive oscillation effect, so controlling the amount of mutated dark energy particles absorbed is crucial. Otherwise, it could lead to self-destruction, with dire consequences. The author suggests that by modifying the brainwave frequency of a person with strong mental power, the absorption efficiency of the mysterious entangled particles can be influenced..."

This article basically explained why Ning Yi had a Wheel of Destiny in his mind and the true principle of the energy absorption technique.

It turned out that he hadn't fully grasped the subtleties of the energy absorption technique. According to the book, he could use his mind to control the amount of energy absorbed each time without worrying about the other person having too much energy.

This skill was too awesome. He had always been worried that absorbing all the battle qi at once would eventually expose him. But if he secretly absorbed only a part of it, how would the other person know?

This meant that from now on, whenever someone used battle qi to show off, he could absorb energy points at any time without the other person knowing.

No wonder this technique was considered a demonic art.

However, according to the book, it was almost impossible for ordinary martial artists to master this energy absorption technique unless they were at least a Qing-level martial artist. And they might even go insane from the process.

Sigh, demonic art! We must eliminate it!

Ning Yi looked around, and when no one was paying attention, he quietly folded and pocketed the pages written in Chinese. Then he put the book back in its place.

He then walked back to the four rows of bookshelves he was supposed to search and pretended to look for books.

After a while, Gao Huan seemed to notice that Ning Yi had left and returned to continue her search from where she had left off.

About half an hour later, Ning Yi heard her excited cry.

"I found it! I found it!"

Ning Yi peeked through the gaps in the bookshelves and sighed in relief. She had finally found it.

The beauty with the earrings quickly came over, followed by the black-suited men who were clearly Feng Yingkong's guards. They immediately surrounded Gao Huan, making her tremble in fear. She timidly handed the book to the beauty: "Is... is this the one?"

The beauty took the book, glanced at it, and then flipped through it, nodding.

With a slight nod, one of the black-suited men handed Gao Huan a thousand yuan.

The beauty then clapped her hands: "Thank you, everyone. The book search is over. Please return the slips of paper to me, and you can collect a red envelope at the door. Thank you all."

Sure enough, at the door, a man was handing out red envelopes to everyone who had come to search for books, in exchange for the slips of paper.

When it was Ning Yi's turn, the beauty smiled and took the paper, saying, "Little beggar, I didn't expect you to be a student here. But... you've already received your red envelope, so you can't get another one."

"Uh..." Ning Yi was speechless, but fine, no red envelope, no big deal.

As he walked out, he saw a girl open her red envelope and exclaim, "Three hundred yuan!"

Ning Yi rolled his eyes. Damn, he had been tricked by the beauty with the earrings, but at least he had tricked them too. The essence of the energy absorption technique was now in his hands, so it was a fair trade.

Back in the reading room, Ning Yi went to the audio-visual room to check, but he didn't see Li Jiawei.

It seemed the rumor at school had affected her.

But this was expected, and Ning Yi wasn't too bothered by it.

He decided to start training his mental power according to the instructions on the pages.

Suddenly, his mind shook, and the voice of the Wheel of Destiny sounded again: "Successfully learned Mental Power Technique, Level 1, 0.1%."

Ning Yi hurriedly checked the function of this skill. It wasn't simple at all!

At Level 1, it could assist in controlling the energy absorption technique. At mid-Level 2, it could seal and unseal memories. At late-Level 3, it could enable astral projection.

This skill was too powerful!

The only downside was that the experience of 0.1% seemed too insignificant.
