Chapter 27: Supernatural Energy Crystal
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Supernatural energy is a kind of energy that exists in the natural world. It exists mostly in the form of solid crystals.”
“It has existed in the natural world for countless years with no signs of vaporizing or liquifying. This is also the reason why supernatural energy exists in the living world yet cannot be felt.”
“Supernatural energy cannot be absorbed directly, especially in solid state.”
“But now, because of the increase in content of a special substance in the world, the solid supernatural energy has begun to melt.”
“This has led to the birth of some supernatural phenomena.”
“From years of research, I have summarized the following ways to absorb supernatural energy.”
“First, when supernatural energy fuses with a creature’s body, it will form a new kind of energy, which is bio-energy.”
“The amount of bio-energy is a measure of a supernatural creature’s strength.”
“1. A creature living in a space filled with gaseous supernatural energy will slowly absorb the supernatural energy. This supernatural energy fuses with the body of the creature and forms bio-energy.”
“2. Dilution of supernatural energy. Use special technology to dilute it to a certain extent. It can be directly injected into creatures, but it requires those with strong body constitutions. I have experimented for several years but have only succeeded in four cases.”
“3. If a creature wants to obtain supernatural power, it can directly absorb the bio-energy which has been fused into other creatures.”
“4. If an offspring is born, the offspring will also obtain a small amount of bio-energy from the mother and the father.”
…
Upon reading this, Luo Fan understood.
Bio-energy was a result of the fusion of supernatural energy with the physical body.
Supernatural energy could not be absorbed directly. It could be slowly absorbed after dilution, just like how immortals had to draw energy from the heavens and earth during their cultivation.
As for bio-energy, every living creature would be able to absorb it.
Therefore, the best way to become a supernatural creature was to devour the bodies of other supernatural creatures.
This coincided with Luo Fan’s goal.
“It is indeed as the system has said. Bio-energy is a hybrid of supernatural energy and the physical flesh. Therefore, these four rats were the four successful cases.”
Immediately after, Luo Fan went to open that metal box again.
The moment he opened the metal box, Luo Fan sensed a dense supernatural energy.
His body automatically absorbed it to contain the supernatural energy.
The effect was minimal.
The absorption rate was very slow. It was much slower than him absorbing bio-energy from a creature’s body.
Indeed, as the doctor had said, creatures could absorb the thin supernatural energy in the air, but the absorption would be very slow.
Then, Luo Fan looked inside the metal box.
A pure white crystal the size of an egg lay inside; it looked like a large white pebble.
Beside the egg-size pure white crystal, there was a small piece of broken crystal.
That small crystal was very tiny, even smaller than a grain of rice.
If it had not been for Luo Fan’s big eye, he definitely would not have discovered it.
After carefully observing the items as a whole, Luo Fan carefully closed the metal box.
In that instant, he sensed an intense supernatural energy. It was hundreds of times more than the supernatural energy contained in all the creatures he had absorbed.
This supernatural energy drifted into the air and permeated the entire rat hole.
“It turned out that the culprit which had caused the rats in the entire rat hole to mutate was the tiny bit of energy that had accidentally drifted out of this crystal!”
This crystal was definitely very precious. He did not know how this doctor had obtained it.
“There’s nothing much to see for now. I’ll go out and take a look at the battle outside.”
Luo Fan took another look at what was in the entire coffin. After making sure he had missed nothing, he climbed out again.
…
Outside, only ten rats were still alive.
Furthermore, each of them had injuries on their bodies and they looked like they were dying.
Furthermore, they were all ordinary grayish-white rats. Those silver and golden-spotted rats had all died.
They had been killed by these rats.
Luo Fan looked toward the large grayish-white rat and smiled to himself.
“You have died, and could not see this. Your race has won and killed these outsiders.”
“However, it is obvious that your race is also about to disappear.”
Luo Fan turned his gaze back to the dying, grayish-white rats.
“They’re all about to die, and…”
He slowly walked over toward those rats.
“And, I also do not want another nest of rats to breed in this rat hole. This will be my secret stronghold. That piece of supernatural energy crystal must be kept hidden here. I won’t allow any living beings to taint that crystal.”
“I’m sorry. Humans are cunning.”
Luo Fan did not know if these rats also had intelligence, and whether they would seek help from other living beings like the large grayish-white rat.
Would these rats snitch on him? Would they kill him?
They were not of the same species, not to mention that Luo Fan did not have the ability to restrain the reproduction of these rats.
If he was careless, this place might become the Kingdom of Rats again.
Most importantly, he was the only one who knew about the supernatural energy crystal.
Therefore…
Luo Fan came in front of these rats and stabbed them with his spiked tail, killing all of them.
When his spiked tail was pulled out of the last rat’s body, all the rats in the rat hole had died.
As such, all the rats in the entire Kingdom of Rats had died because of him, an outsider.
Luo Fan guessed that even if he had not come, in the end, the grayish-white rat would lead the group of rats to revolt and succeed in sitting on the throne of the Rat King.
But because of Luo Fan’s arrival, all of this had become Luo Fan’s dowry.
The outsiders had won, and the rat kingdom was annihilated.
“So much energy, how long would it take me to finish absorbing it?”
At this moment, Luo Fan looked at the carcasses of the rats around him and smiled happily.
All the rat carcasses here added up to about 500 grams of bio-energy that could be extracted.
The bio-energy was enough to evolve a large part of his body into level-3 cells.
All the rats had died, so Luo Fan could stroll around without any worries.
However, he was in no hurry to patrol the rat kingdom. Instead, he started to absorb the body of the golden-haired Rat King.
This underground rat kingdom was too huge for him to finish exploring in a short while.
Furthermore, Luo Fan was afraid that he would get lost. Such things would happen easily in the dark environment.
He suppressed his curiosity and started to concentrate on strengthening his body.
The eight intestines began to tear at the body of the golden-haired Rat King and send the torn flesh into the intestines to be digested.
As he absorbed the energy, Luo Fan also absorbed a large amount of bio-energy.
With all the eight intestines activated together, it would only take a few hours to finish one rat.
“9.2 grams of bio-energy has been extracted from this Rat King’s body. Other than the big black fish, this is the creature from which I have extracted the most bio-energy.”
[9.2 grams of bio-energy. It can evolve 9.2 million cells.]
The coverage of level-3 cells was increasing again..
