Chapter 74

Night.

At the Yuan family.

Upon hearing Li Hao's thoughts and plans, Yuan Shuo did not say much, only reminding him, "Don't treat Wang Ming as a fool; he's not. The elemental energy you extracted is pure and singular. A normal super-ability user who has absorbed it would not fail to understand its power... Regardless of whether he knows it's elemental energy or not, if he leaks it, you'll be in big trouble."

The matter of sword energy is known by many.

If the matter of extracting elemental energy leaks... it will be even more troublesome.

Li Hao sat cross-legged on the ground.

Hearing this, he nodded slightly. He had already considered it and said, "I understand, but the student only knows a little. More debts mean less worry! Now, the Red Moon knows a lot, and Yan Luo might know something too. The Night Patrol might have guessed something... If so, what's the harm in someone knowing a bit more?"

Li Hao smiled, "In fact, there are only two possibilities. First, Wang Ming is grateful and keeps it a secret, helping me in the future. Second, he has ulterior motives and leaks it, adding another enemy."

Do you still care about having one more enemy?

No, he doesn't.

Weighing the pros and cons, the result is no different.

And from recent interactions, Wang Ming, apart from being a bit of a chatterbox, is otherwise fine.

If he is asked to keep it a secret, he might do so. For example, when Li Hao mentioned the tenth person, Wang Ming never told anyone. However, he needs to be reminded in advance.

Yuan Shuo nodded.

His student has his own thoughts, and Yuan Shuo generally does not stop him; he only explains the pros and cons.

"Then it's up to you, but be prepared to bear the consequences!"

Saying this, Yuan Shuo said no more.

The path is one's own to walk.

Even if some bumps are encountered, if one truly understands the fear of human nature, it is a good thing.

...

After waiting for a while, Wang Ming arrived first.

Seeing Yuan Shuo, Wang Ming smiled broadly, "Teacher!"

A named disciple is still a disciple, and Yuan Shuo is so strong. He also wanted to curry favor, but unfortunately, Yuan Shuo gave them the impression of being very authoritative. Apart from Li Hao, the others were somewhat timid when interacting with him.

Yuan Shuo looked him up and down, his tone calm, "I didn't want to get involved too much. You are just a named disciple, and you know why I accepted you. Your senior brother insisted that I use my unique technique to help you advance... Helping you is a small matter, but if you advance too quickly and the news leaks... You must understand, for super-abilities, easily advancing represents what?"

Wang Ming's heart tightened, "Teacher, I understand, so I am very grateful to Li Hao..."

"That's your senior brother!"

Wang Ming was embarrassed, not daring to call him.

Yuan Shuo did not say more about this, speaking sternly, "I have only one requirement: keep it a secret! If you really advance successfully, and outsiders ask..."

He considered for a moment. If outsiders ask why he advanced so quickly, how should he answer?

Just casually eating a Blood God Seed and then advancing?

That's impossible!

Others have eaten it too.

After some consideration, he sighed, "Just say you learned the Five Animal Breathing Technique! The Five Animal Breathing Technique, during the checkpoint period, combined with the Blood God Seed, has a special effect, making it easier to break through bottlenecks!"

The Five Animal Breathing Technique!

At this moment, Li Hao was about to speak, but Yuan Shuo glanced at him, his gaze stern.

It's the Five Animal Breathing Technique!

The outside world actually knows that Yuan Shuo has a unique breathing technique that is useful for super-abilities. The Night Patrol's Energy Induction Technique also has Yuan Shuo's involvement.

However, the Five Animal Breathing Technique is almost never taught to outsiders.

Last time, Duan Tian was attracted to the Five Animal Breathing Technique and had greedy thoughts.

If it leaks again that the Five Animal Breathing Technique helps break through bottlenecks, it will likely attract more attention and make more powerful people interested in this technique.

"The Five Animal Breathing Technique is never taught to outsiders!"

Yuan Shuo continued, "If someone asks you, just say you learned a simplified version, mainly relying on me to help you run the breathing technique and absorb and digest the Blood God Seed!"

Wang Ming thought for a moment and said softly, "Teacher... this..."

Will it cause some trouble?

"Or I could say I have good talent..."

"Rubbish!"

Yuan Shuo cursed, "If your talent were really that good, you would be a Heaven-favored Master! Of course, you can say that to ordinary people. If people like Hou Xiaochen ask you, use the explanation I just gave."

"Understood!"

Wang Ming nodded hurriedly.

"Go in!"

Yuan Shuo pointed to the training room and said, "Once inside, clear your mind and think of nothing. When you feel energy surging in, start practicing, and don't worry about anything else!"

"Yes!"

Wang Ming did not dare to say more and hurriedly entered the training room.

Yuan Shuo waved his hand and closed the door.

He looked at Li Hao, "Transmit it from a distance. Even if some is wasted or dispersed, it doesn't matter."

"Even if he really says something, without seeing anything, it can avoid some trouble."

Transmitting from a distance is not impossible, but it will definitely result in some dispersion and waste of mysterious energy.

Li Hao thought for a moment and nodded.

Knowing that the teacher is doing this to protect him as much as possible, he did not say more.

Walking to the door of the training room, Li Hao and Yuan Shuo both sat cross-legged. After a moment, Yuan Shuo took out an energy storage box, filled with metal-type super-abilities.

Last time, he exchanged about 1000 cubic meters of Five Elements energy for Li Hao, and Li Hao has absorbed about half of it recently.

He has absorbed about 500 cubic meters of Five Elements energy.

Now, there are about 500 cubic meters left, plus some unattributed mysterious energy.

Among them, there are about 100 cubic meters of metal-type energy.

It should be enough.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to absorb 100 cubic meters of mysterious energy in a month. This is a one-time absorption, and even a Sunlight user would find it difficult to absorb it all at once, but a Three Suns user would have no problem.

Li Hao did not speak, reaching out to draw in the metal-type mysterious energy. At the same time, a faint sword energy emerged from the small sword.

Last time, he absorbed a lot at the entrance to the ruins, but he has consumed a lot recently, and it now feels less concentrated than before.

The sword energy blended into the metal-type mysterious energy, quickly separating it.

In a blink, a golden energy was separated out, pure and metallic!

This energy quickly surged toward the lungs.

Metal strengthens the lungs.

Li Hao did not absorb it but quickly circulated his internal energy, wrapping this energy and forcing it out of his body, directly transmitting it into the training room.

...

Inside the training room.

Wang Ming was uneasy, and no one came in. Just like this, energy surged in, and he could practice?

He did not understand the process.

Now, he could only wait and see.

Just as he was thinking, suddenly, a golden energy surged before his eyes... Yes, at this moment, he could even feel the existence of the golden substance. In a blink, that golden energy covered him.

Wang Ming was still considering what this thing was, whether it was dangerous...

Before he could finish thinking, his eyes widened dramatically!

What?

In a situation invisible to outsiders, that golden energy quickly surged into his body. In a blink, this energy merged with the mysterious energy in his body, and with a loud rumble, it seemed to have a catalytic effect, causing all the mysterious energy in his body to fluctuate violently.

It felt like it was about to explode!

The mysterious energy in his body surged wildly in all directions, rushing toward the super-ability locks.

Super-ability cultivation is about breaking through super-ability locks.

The super-ability locks each person breaks initially are not necessarily the same.

For example, Wang Ming, the first super-ability lock he broke was a lock in the lung area. He did not fully understand, but after that, he awakened his metal-type super-ability.

The second super-ability lock he broke was a lock on his right arm.

According to the nine super-ability locks discovered so far, it seems that each of the five organs has one, each of the four limbs has one, and there is a rumor that there is one in the head, but no one has discovered it yet. It is speculated that the tenth super-ability lock is in the head.

At this moment, the golden element that surged into his body initially carried a large amount of mysterious energy, rushing directly to his lungs.

Wang Ming was startled; even the organs of super-ability users are very fragile.

He did not dare to let this energy surge into his lungs.

In the next moment, he forcibly ran the Energy Induction Technique, a method to guide super-ability, instantly directing the energy to his left arm.

He had discovered five super-ability locks: one in the lungs, then the arms, and the legs. As for the super-ability locks in other areas of the organs, he had not yet sensed them.

This time, he prepared to guide this powerful energy to impact the super-ability lock on his left arm.

Boom!

A muffled sound came from inside his body. At this moment, even Li Hao and Yuan Shuo could hear it, a sound like breaking through a barrier, a loud rumble!

Outside the door, Yuan Shuo did not speak but his lips trembled, "He's impacting the super-ability lock! Super-ability cultivation is simpler than ours. Even at the Sunlight stage, there's no need to comprehend any momentum. As long as the super-ability lock is broken, that's an advancement!"

Li Hao nodded and continued to extract the golden element, sending it into the room.

Wave after wave of golden energy continuously surged into the room.

Inside the room, Wang Ming let out cries of pain.

This time, the mysterious energy was not as painful as Wang Ming had expected, but breaking through the super-ability lock was still a painful process.

Of course, for Wang Ming, this was already quite good.

In the past, breaking through the super-ability lock was not only a painful process, but the impact of the mysterious energy was also extremely painful.

The pain was reduced by half!

His eyes were filled with excitement. He did not know how Li Hao and Yuan Shuo did it, but many people collapse during the impact process because they cannot bear the pain.

At this moment, he felt his chances of breaking through were greatly increased!

A small chain faintly appeared on his left arm.

It was even somewhat materialized!

In the super-ability realm, there is a saying that super-ability locks are chains that lock human potential. When you
