I am practicing in a weird world

　He didn't really smell the aroma of the food, but he sensed the food. It was a very wonderful feeling. It was not the nose that smelled the aroma of the food, nor the eyes that saw the food, nor the ears that heard the sound of cooking food, but he felt the food.

　It was a perception triggered by extreme hunger, a mysterious perception.

　There is something on the second floor of the restaurant. It has a strong vitality that can satisfy hunger.

　The second floor of the restaurant is a place that even evil spirits are forbidden to go to. What is there?

　Xiao Yi looked towards the second floor of the restaurant. Hunger made his mind more focused, and the spirit in his body emitted a more powerful light. Then he saw it.

　In his sight, the second floor of the restaurant gradually twisted and disappeared, and a blood-red object slowly emerged from his eyes. It was a heart, a heart with countless big mouths, and each mouth was filled with knife-like fangs.

　A series of ethereal tentacles floated around the heart. They were invisible substances, like blood-colored gas. These tentacles extended in all directions and into various houses. At first glance, they looked like blood-colored lines.

　With the second floor of the restaurant as the center, these lines extend into the restaurant's staff room, into the prison, and into various secret corners.

　It’s like countless lines, starting from the second floor of the restaurant, connecting all places.

　What the hell is this?

　Xiao Yi opened his eyes wide, his face full of shock.

　This thing is different from the moths and long knives in the school. It is more disgusting and weird.

　He moved his gaze to look at his body, and immediately saw a bloody tentacle extending from the second floor of the restaurant and entering his body.

　He stretched out his hand and grabbed it suddenly, but he grabbed nothing. His hand passed directly through the blood-colored tentacles and could not touch them at all. It was like trying to grab the air with his hand.

　What is this tentacle-like thing?

　Xiao Yi stared at the tentacles that stretched into his body. Under his gaze, the tentacles began to change. Large mouths full of sharp teeth grew on the tentacles, gnawing frantically at Xiao Yi's body.

　Every bite can devour some of Xiao Yi's vitality, and then transport this vitality to the heart on the second floor of the restaurant.

　The continuous loss of vitality is reflected in the body as hunger, which means that the body's substances are constantly being consumed.

　I have to kill that weird heart. If it doesn't die, I will die, and be eaten alive.

　Xiao Yi took a quick step and walked towards the restaurant.

　This is not the main entrance of the restaurant. The main entrance of the restaurant faces the street. This is the back of the restaurant, the back door.

　The back door was not closed tightly, but ajar, and sounds came from inside.

　It was a very strong sound: "Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong..."

　Every time the sound was heard, the ground shook.

　There's something in there.

　Xiao Yi walked lightly and looked inside through the half-open door. There was a chef inside, wearing a white chef's uniform and a tall chef's hat.

　The chef was chopping the meat on the chopping board with his knife.

　Next to the chef, the stove was burning and a pot of stock was simmering.

　On the stove, there were more than ten plates, and each plate contained meatballs. The meatballs were only the size of a thumb, round and plump, and looked a bit like pills.

　Xiao Yi recognized the chef. He was one of the two chefs who took the fat woman away during the day.

　There is only one person, no matter whether it is a human or an evil ghost, there is nothing to be afraid of.

　Xiao Yi pushed the door open and asked, "What's that on the second floor of the restaurant?"

　The chef turned to look at Xiao Yi, his throat rolling, and a longing smile appeared on his face. "What a great piece of meat! It came just in time. I wanted to eat you during the day, but you were protected by the rules and I couldn't touch you. I didn't expect you to come to my door at night. Today must be my lucky day."

　“Crack, crack, crack!”

　A strange sound erupted from the chef's body, like the sound of frying beans, the sound of bones crackling.

　The chef's body began to swell, his body began to grow taller, and his muscles continued to expand, causing the chef's uniform to crack.

　Xiao Yi took a step forward and hit him on the head with a stick.

　He wanted to kill the chef while he was sick and get rid of him while he was transforming.

　The chef stretched out his hand to block the area above his head.

　"boom!"

　The iron rod hit the chef's arm, but it didn't move at all, as if the thing in front of him was not an arm, but a mountain of flesh and blood.

　The chef grabbed the iron rod with his backhand and pulled it hard.

　Suddenly, Xiao Yi felt a huge force coming from the other side of the stick, a force so strong that he was completely unable to resist it.

　The iron rod slipped out of Xiao Yi's hand and was held in the chef's hand.

　The next moment, the chef turned around and hit Xiao Yi with a stick.

　"call!"

　A violent whistling wind suddenly erupted, and the iron rod fell on the head with tremendous force.

　Xiao Yi quickly moved to the side.

　The iron rod brushed past his body and hit the stove next to him. Instantly, the tiles and marble were shattered, and even the stainless steel was twisted and broken. The entire stove was smashed to pieces and turned into a pile of rubbish.

　What a powerful force.

　Xiao Yi looked shocked.

　Even if a tiger hits the stove with its palm, it cannot cause such great damage.

　The chef had completely transformed. His eyes flashed with ferocity, and he grinned fiercely, "Your biggest mistake is treating me like an ordinary demon. Ordinary demons are nothing compared to me. I can beat them up whenever I want."

　After saying that, he strode forward, took a step, and hit Xiao Yi on the head with the iron rod in his hand.

　"call!"

　The whistling sound of breaking wind broke out again, and huge power came roaring.

　Xiao Yi did not retreat but advanced. He burst out with all his strength and his body became like a spring, as fast as a cheetah.

　The iron rod came towards him, but Xiao Yi turned sideways and dodged it immediately, letting the iron rod brush past his body and fall.

　His palm was like a knife, and he chopped down on the evil ghost's neck, which was the top of the spine.

　The top of the spine is very close to the head, and many nerve centers converge here. This area is extremely fragile and sensitive. In mild cases, a person can be knocked unconscious, and in severe cases, a person can be paralyzed.

　"boom!"

　The palm knife landed on the evil ghost's neck, and the huge force hit the nerves inside, instantly chopping him into a white mass.

　For a moment, I could see nothing.

　Xiao Yi moved to the side as fast as the wind, stretched out his hand, grabbed the meat-cutting knife on the chopping board, and started to chop.

　The knife flashed like a line, and a large amount of blood immediately spurted out from the evil ghost's neck.

　Countless granulations quickly spread out from the evil ghost's wound, entangled up and down, trying to repair the wound.

　Xiao Yi's knife was as sharp as a spear and he stabbed out quickly.

　PS: I need some votes for support.

　Volume 1: Chapter 51: Flame

　It pierced the evil ghost's heart in an instant.

　The huge wound was like an open door, with blood and vitality constantly flowing out of it.

　Xiao Yi turned his body, using his waist as a driving force, and drew his sword suddenly.

　Suddenly, blood spurted out like an arrow.

　At this moment, the granulation tissue on the evil ghost's neck suddenly withered and could no longer grow.

　The chef covered his chest with his hands and stumbled back uncontrollably. Disbelief was written on his face. "Impossible, impossible! I'm stronger than you, faster than you, and my physical fitness is several times better than yours. How could I be killed by you? This is impossible."

　"Nothing is impossible. Fighting isn't just about strength and speed; it's also about skill. If you don't know the human body's weaknesses, don't know how to exert force, and can't grasp the timing of your attack, I've been fighting in this carnage fantasy, killing thousands of people, and I've gained this experience and feel. It would be a joke if you could beat me."

　Xiao Yi took a step forward and delivered another blow, instantly finishing the chef off completely.

　He glanced around, then fixed his eyes on the flames on the stove.

　There is fire here.

　The rules do not allow humans to touch fire. Is there something strange about the fire here?

　Xiao Yi remembered the description of fire in the rules, and there was also a description of fire in the Healthy Human Handbook and the questionnaire.

　Rule 3 of the Healthy Human Handbook: Fire is a dangerous thing. It is not only dangerous to yourself but also to others, so you cannot make a fire.

　The questionnaire also asked whether humans can make fire.

　He walked over, took away the great iron cauldron of stock, and looked at the flames.

　This stove doesn't burn gas or firewood, it burns human bones.

　Inside, human bones burned like firewood, igniting a raging flame.

　Just getting close, the heat wave hits you in the face and the temperature is extremely high.

　It’s actually burning bones. Why can bones burn with flames?

　A look of surprise appeared on Xiao Yi's face.

　Human bones are not combustible and should not burn.

　Looking closely at the stove, Xiao Yi saw some words engraved on the inside of the stove. The words emitted a red and yellow light, almost the same color as the flame. If you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't find them.

　Words can actually burn?

　Xiao Yi took the bone out of the stove and stared at the words inside.

　He saw lines of words that Xiao Yi recognized, but the writing style was very strange. The shape looked like flames.

　These words were connected into sentences and memorized one by one in Xiao Yi's brain. Suddenly, these words in his brain began to twist and then began to evolve into flames.

　A raging flame rose up and engulfed Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi could not feel the heat.

　This is an illusion, just like gazing at the long sword in the school. This is an illusion that appears when gazing at the flaming words. What do these words want to teach me?

　Xiao Yi raised his hand and looked at it. As his gaze fell, he felt his hand begin to heat up. Inside his hand, the force called Qi was moving violently. They rubbed and collided with each other, generating heat.

　Most of these forces emerge from the muscles. Xiao Yi calls this energy strength, just like how much strength a person has and how many kilograms of dumbbells he can lift. It is that kind of strength, and Lin Lingniao calls this power qi.

　Mobilizing these forces from all parts of the body can be used to strengthen the body and allow it to burst out with power beyond its normal capacity.

　At this moment, the illusion is showing another way to use this energy.

　The power continued to entangle and collide in his body, and it became hotter and hotter. The next moment, flames started to burn from his hands, instantly burning his entire palm, and then spread to his whole body.

　In just a moment, Xiao Yi's whole body was ignited by flames, just like a dead tree ignited by flames, burning with raging flames.

　Xiao Yi could clearly feel his body being burned to ashes, gradually becoming a pile of ashes that could no longer burn.

　Just as the last part of his body was burned to ashes, the illusion faded and he returned to reality.

　Below his soul, a new halo appeared. It was a halo made of burning words, and it was just below the steel ring.

　These texts are an article titled "Secrets of Blacksmiths", which records the way a group of special blacksmiths make fire.

　When I look at words about moths, it doesn't trigger an illusion. But when I look at words about knives and flames, it does. It seems that I have some talent for flames.

　Withdraw your attention from your soul and look outside again.

　The chef died, and on the stove were plates filled with meatballs. Their texture was smooth and delicate, and they looked like pills.

　What is this?

　Xiao Yi picked up a pill. As soon as his fingers touched the pill, a soft touch came from his fingertips, which made Xiao Yi feel a little surprised.

　Is it soft, not hard?

　Xiao Yi looked at the pill in his hand with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

　He had seen pills sold in pharmacies, and those pills were all hard without exception. He had never seen any as soft as these.

　Only the meatballs were soft.

　When you break the meatball in your hand, the rich aroma of meat will immediately fill the whole kitchen.

　A special flame, some people use it for smelting iron, some people use it for cooking.

　Xiao Yi no longer had any interest in the meatball in his hand. He threw the meatball back onto the plate, his eyes falling on the corpse of the evil ghost on the ground, and a plan came to his mind.

　Only one spark is needed to ignite the entire corpse. I can implant the spark inside the corpse. I wonder if I can give that unspeakable thing on the second floor a surprise.
