Wu Sheng: I can adapt to evolution

Chapter 142 It feels so good to be favored

How much flesh and blood can a hundred-foot-tall mountain of flesh contain?
If weighed, it would be between 80 to 90 million jin and over 100 million jin. This is why it is enough to supply all the large and small forces in a state.

Normally, even if a million pounds of meat were cut off from the meat mountain, it wouldn't actually feel much.

But now, as Lu Ming continued to devour it, its body began to shrink significantly, and even its mouth kept opening wide, and a low "hissing" sound came from the depths of its throat, appearing to be in some pain.

But Lu Ming absorbed the flesh and blood faster and faster.

His body felt the approaching star of extinction, and an unprecedented desire to survive burst out.

At first he just swallowed it with his mouth, but in a very short time, a layer of mucus was secreted all over his body. As soon as this mucus touched the flesh of the meat mountain, it quickly dissolved it and then absorbed the energy through the pores.

Since that was the case, Lu Ming simply crashed into the meat mountain and completely merged with it, which increased his efficiency in absorbing the meat mountain several times.

"Crack."

More and more concentrated annihilation power was released, madly destroying his body, while at the same time his supernatural powers were repaired over and over again, allowing his physical strength to finally reach a peak.

A ball of energy filled with vitality gradually sprouted between his chest and abdomen.

"This...what happened?!"

The commotion here finally alarmed the disciples of the Beast Breeding Department. They saw that the hundred-foot-high mountain of flesh was now less than fifty feet tall, and its body was still twisting, appearing to be in extreme pain.

"It's Senior Brother Lu who is using the Meat Mountain to practice."

Some disciples saw Lu Ming, who was covered by the mountain of flesh, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and emitting a terrifying aura.

Lu Ming is now the de facto second-in-command of Bingzhou Martial Temple. The Beast Breeding Department has no right to stop him from doing anything he wants.

"Go and report to the Lord Jijiu."

But the meat mountain is also very important. If this continues, the blood and flesh supply of various forces in Bingzhou may be affected in the next year.

"I'll go myself."

The director of the Beast Breeding Department thought about it and felt that it would be quite difficult for others to meet the chief priest, so it would be better for him to go there in person.

At this moment, Lu Ming was like a suppressed volcano. His blood was flowing slowly, but it was like a big river, echoing in the entire space.

With every breath he took, it seemed as if the air within a hundred feet was being pumped, and miniature tornadoes were forming and dissipating.

"boom."

After the meat mountain was finally squeezed to the limit, a force suddenly rose between his chest and abdomen. Deep black instantly covered his entire body, and streams of air spread around like ribbons.

Time seemed to stop for a moment, and the next moment, Lu Ming stood up and appeared ten feet away.

These air currents swept through and turned into a terrifying corrosive force. All the surrounding matter and energy turned into sand and dust the moment they touched, and all the energy within them was completely drained away.

Lu Ming took a deep breath, and all the strange air currents were gathered by him. He stood there calmly.

If he looked like a giant beast of flesh and blood compressed into a human form before, he now looked like an ordinary person.

Reaching the Qi Realm represents the pinnacle of human endurance. With a perfect body and undiminished vital energy, one can easily live to 150 years old. Lu Ming's physical strength was terrifyingly high. Even without supernatural powers, his lifespan would likely be more than ten times that of an average person. Furthermore, his super-adaptive evolutionary powers, which continuously evolved over time to resist the passage of time, made his actual lifespan even more incredible.

But it’s useless to say all this now. If the world-destroying crisis is not resolved in three years, he still can’t survive with his current strength. What’s the point of living a longer life?

"I've already reached the True Qi realm, but that terrifying feeling of life and death hasn't dissipated at all. It seems I need to prepare for both scenarios."

The sadness in Lu Ming's heart did not dissipate much, and the extinct stars in the starry sky still made him feel terrified.

He made up his mind that in the coming time, he would not only plunder all the energy, but also mobilize all manpower and material resources, find a mountain, and then dig a hole down.

As long as you dig deep enough, you might be able to increase your chances of survival.

"Senior Brother Lu..."

Seeing that Lu Ming had finished his training, everyone hurried over to greet him.

But Lu Ming was not in a good mood. He just nodded slightly and took a step forward. As if a wisp of black air dissipated, he disappeared from the spot.

Everyone was shocked, as if after Senior Brother Lu condensed his true energy, his strength had completely reached an incredible level.

They turned their heads to look at the mountain of flesh. The huge beast that was originally a hundred feet tall was now less than ten feet tall. It was lying on the ground weakly, its mouth opening and closing, and no one knew whether it was cursing.

Seeing that the meat mountain was still alive, everyone hurriedly brought various feeds from the warehouse to feed it.

But judging by the current state of the Meat Mountain, it is likely that it will not be able to supply flesh and blood to other forces for more than a year.

……

"Master Jijiu, Lu Ming's behavior is really too..."

Si Ye of the Beast Breeding Department felt extremely aggrieved. Even if Lu Ming had a preference for Gu Chen, it was really too much for him to eat so much of the meat mountain in one breath.

"Alright, alright. The Meat Mountain only provides flesh and blood to ordinary forces. You just found a random excuse and stopped supplying it for over a year. It's not a big deal. Do they dare to complain?"

Gu Chen was really annoyed by his crying.

Lu Ming was his chosen heir, a promising young man who could truly hold power. It was just eating half of the meat mountain, no big deal.

What he was worried about was that Lu Ming must not have gotten over the rumors of world destruction. Why would a martial arts genius believe such strange rumors for no reason?

Even if the world really does end, it will be the High Priest and the Zhongzhou Martial Temple who will lead the way. What's the point of you struggling here alone?

However, this kid ate tens of millions of pounds of flesh and blood in one breath, which was a bit too terrifying. Could it be that he had mastered the power of [Trading] in advance and used this flesh and blood to exchange for cultivation?
In Gu Chen's concept, it is impossible for any life to directly absorb so much energy. Only by utilizing the authority of rules can it be possible to transcend the constraints of reality.

"He already knew how to use authority when he was at the fifth level of martial arts. So, he's even more talented than I thought. The power gained from exchanging tens of millions of kilograms of flesh and blood must be terrifying. I'm looking forward to him giving me more surprises."

Gu Chen sat there, his thoughts already wandering far away.

When the director of the Animal Breeding Department saw his attitude, he felt distraught. It felt so good to be favored by others.

Unfortunately, I am not the one being favored.
