Devil Fruit Era: My Max-Level Armament Haki Flowing Sakura

"What hush money do you want? You little brat, if you dare to go around telling everyone, someone might send you on a free underground trip!"

It's gotten quite serious.

Ye Chi didn't mind; they were both joking, and the topic was dropped.

"I'm going to acquire the Devil Fruit power tomorrow. When that happens, will I use these books to identify it?"

Ye Chi fiddled with the tattered books, thinking how incredibly impractical this idea was.

Xiao Qining nodded as if it were commonplace, saying, "Yes! Isn't that how it is?"

This time, it was Ye Chi's turn to be dumbfounded!

Is this really the case?

Carrying a bunch of books in to pick out Devil Fruits... How lame!

Well, it's not great, but this method actually works!

Ye Chi was picking through the books when Xiao Qining asked, a little nervously, "You little rascal, is your constitution really at its peak?"

"Yes." Ye Chi nodded.

"And what about the spirit?"

Ye Chi glanced at her, "Pretty much."

As expected, Xiao Qining looked extremely surprised!

"You're a monster, you're dead!"

"Are you going to insult me?" Ye Chi raised an eyebrow teasingly.

Xiao Qining paused, then said with utmost seriousness, "I'm praising you!"

Ye Chi nodded in satisfaction, looking at the machine and saying, "Actually, the ability to maximize my physical strength at this time is largely thanks to this machine."

Vanke's latest combat simulator, a Tier 3 machine, costs 2 billion yuan per unit!

It allows entrants to engage in exhilarating battles in a simulated world without feeling the fatigue of training.

It utilizes the latest biotechnology.

It fully converts lactic acid, which is produced during sluggish bodily movement, into carbohydrates to provide energy.

After listening to Xiao Qining's explanation, Ye Chi roughly understood that people often feel muscle soreness (lactic acid) when exercising.

This soreness not only affects the continuation of exercise, but also distracts one's willpower.

But this machine directly converts lactic acid into energy and uses biotechnology to provide additional energy to the muscles, allowing people to exercise continuously without feeling any pain.

Finally, it will be forcibly shut down only when the mechanical energy—the amino acid solution in the trunk—is insufficient to provide energy to the human muscles.

Ye Chi only then realized that the purple solution was used in the machine.

"You actually want me to take it orally...."

Facing Ye Chi's resentful gaze, Xiao Qi pouted her pink lips and argued:

"Actually, Vanke has also stated that it can be taken orally!"

"But it's really surprising that you can withstand a level three simulated battle!"

Xiao Qining knew perfectly well that she had only downloaded a map inside, and that magma world was so hot that even a normal second-tier cultivator couldn't withstand the temperature inside!

Ye Chi nodded and said, "That magma world is indeed not bad, but I think I should be able to get through it."

"Is that guy named Song something? Is he the rival you set up?"

For some reason, Xiao Qining's expression changed drastically the moment she heard Ye Chi mention that name.

Chapter 36 I like him so much

Song Jinyang, relying on the fact that his father had once helped the Xiao family, proposed marriage to the Xiao family four years ago. The object of his proposal was obvious—the youngest and most beautiful girl in the family.

Born into a prominent family, Xiao Qining had tried to rebel, but she didn't have much time left to buy.

Ye Chi stared at Xiao Qining's unusual expression, and said in a heavy voice, "Could it be...?"

As the boy drew out his words, Xiao Qining's eyes gradually darkened.

Ye Chi knew he had guessed correctly. He narrowed his eyes, stood up, and said in a serious tone, "I'll go kill him."

Xiao Qining didn't stop him, but looked up sadly and said, "Don't waste your energy, the one inside only has half his strength..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chi stopped in his tracks.

He felt very happy when he was with her.

At this moment, Ye Chi's heart was hardened, so hardened that he would not allow the person beside him to be touched by others, nor did he want this person to lose faith in life because of others.

Ye Chi looked at Xiao Qining's pretty face with a solemn expression and said, "You didn't compromise either, did you?"

In this remote border town, with an exorbitantly priced combat simulator at home and an opponent who is seemingly invincible, did she give in?

The answer is obviously no!

Xiao Qining looked into his burning gaze and at the earnestness on his youthful face.

Ripples spread across the lake of my heart, and emotions rippled outwards.

But reality is always so bitter. Her gossamer eyelashes drooped, and her beautiful eyes dimmed as she said, "My affairs... are none of your business."

How could someone with no power or influence possibly fight against a powerful and influential family?

Although she didn't spend much time with Ye Chi, Xiao Qining still felt very happy being with him.

He is very talented, and she has high hopes for his future.

But even a genius needs time to grow.

Moreover, Ye Chi is an unparalleled genius... If he offends those jealous aristocratic families, it would be terrible if he died prematurely!

He's not worth it for her...

Xiao Qining forced a smile and said, "Prepare well for tomorrow. I'm going to the station now. If I'm not coming back, take care of yourself. There's food in the fridge."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Qining felt a lump in her throat and held back the tears welling up in her eyes.

Not daring to look into Ye Chi's sharp, sword-like eyes again, she kept avoiding them, then closed the door as if fleeing.

Snapped!

Xiao Qining leaned against the door, her delicate back soaked by the coldness of the door panel.

Her eyelids, fluttering like cicada wings, cast a shadow in her eyes; her high, firm chest heaved, and her beautiful, thin lips were tightly pursed.

His eyes were glazed over, as if he could still see the boy's face inside.

......

Inside the villa, Ye Chi stood in the empty room, his fists slowly clenching.

A powerful will surged within the young man, and a confident and resolute smile appeared on his lips!

His gaze was sharp as a knife, seemingly able to see through everything!

"What kind of lousy aristocratic family is this? I, Ye Chi, will arrive in this world sooner or later!"

"Everything I want! It's all mine!"

Ye Chi felt an intense surge of anger and rage erupt within him!

He suddenly turned his head and stared at the combat simulator for a moment, making a terrifying decision in his heart!

99% physical fitness, 99% mental strength!

Initiate! Life Restoration!!

"bring it on!!"

After issuing a terrifyingly compressed will in his mind.

Ye Chi's incredibly strong body from one second to the next quickly deflated like a punctured balloon!

The powerful muscles contracted, and the previously swollen cells unleashed a torrent of blood and qi!

Swish swish!

As the master's will surged, the power of the muscle cells was frantically squeezed out!

Swish!

Blood flowed rapidly through the blood vessels, and wisps of dark red energy surged along the meridians, converging from all directions!

Numerous streams emerge from various parts of the body, converging into a mighty river, flowing along the main artery and heading straight for the head!

"what!!!"

Ye Chigeng stiffened his neck, his bloodshot eyes surging as his vital essence rushed toward his head!

boom!

The red substance rushed into the meninges and instantly transformed into extremely dense mental energy!

The meninges are now filled with an immense amount of spiritual energy!

However, under the control of the master's will, even as it is full, external spiritual energy is still constantly squeezing out from the inside!

When forced compression reaches a certain level!

boom--

The meninges couldn't withstand the shock and a blast occurred!

Ye Chi caught a muffled thud in his ear, and his nerves felt like they were about to snap!

He felt a flash of white light before his eyes, and his body involuntarily staggered!

But the next second, he shook his head and gritted his teeth to endure it!

"Keep going! Get stronger!"

The surging mental power was constantly being forced to compress within the limited capacity of the meninges!
