[Stellar Core Power Absorption Technique: Absorbs the power of a stellar core into the body, enhancing one's own strength.]

Chapter 175 The Crisis Encountered by the Star Train [First Update]

Does this skill allow me to absorb the power of a star core?

Ji Yuan looked at Xing and immediately felt that she looked like a power bank.

Seeing Ji Yuan's expression, Xing couldn't help but shudder. She turned to Ting Yun, who was standing to the side, and asked in a low voice, "Your immortal ship doesn't have any techniques for replenishing yang energy through yin-yang cultivation, does it?"

Upon hearing Xing's words, Tingyun glared at her fiercely: "You should stop reading those novels from the Immortal Ship. If Ji Yuan knew that kind of method, would I still be standing here safely like this?"

She wasn't worried about Ji Yuan understanding; she was genuinely worried that Ji Yuan didn't understand at all. Did she really have to take the initiative?

"That's true." Xing nodded understandingly upon hearing Tingyun's words. Then she looked at Ji Yuan and asked, "So, is there something wrong with you looking at me like that?"

"Oh, I want to draw some strength from you."

Ji Yuan said to Xing.

"So you still need to replenish your yang energy by absorbing yin!"

Xing immediately took two steps back, clutching his chest tightly with both hands, and said to Ji Yuan with a shocked expression.

Upon hearing Xing's words, Ji Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "If you want it, it's not that I can't research it. I just thought that after stimulating the star core energy in your body, you can absorb some of it."

At this moment, the activated state of Xingna's star core had dissipated, returning to its normal state. Hearing Ji Yuan say that it could absorb energy, it became somewhat interested.

"Come on, come and try."

Xing reached out her hand to Ji Yuan.

"I'm just trying this out. If you feel anything is wrong later, you should tell me in advance."

"I definitely will."

Xing nodded affirmatively.

Then, Ji Yuan quickly activated the newly acquired skill in Xing's hand.

"hiss!"

Xing couldn't help but gasp.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing her expression, Ji Yuan quickly asked.

Xing waved to Ji Yuan: "It's okay, it's just that I'm not used to it the first time. Come on, I can handle it even if I'm not used to it here."

"Okay, I'll continue."

Seeing that Xing was truly unharmed, Ji Yuan continued absorbing the power within Xing's body. Soon, a surge of power from the star core flowed through Xing's arm into Ji Yuan's body.

Xing's body had already adapted to the power of the star core, but Ji Yuan was clearly experiencing it for the first time. This power was far more frenzied and destructive than the energy of the sun. As the energy of the star core entered his body, Ji Yuan couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Ouch!

However, amidst this pain, Ji Yuan also felt his body's cells strengthening, thus adapting to the pleasure of destructive power.

The power of the star core entered Ji Yuan's body and was stored there. Ji Yuan clearly felt that he could mobilize this energy at any time.

This will further enhance one's own strength.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan was very happy. At the same time, he looked at Xing and quickly stopped the spell.

He felt he could absorb even more, perhaps even storing the entire star core's power layer by layer into his body. However, that would cause too much damage to Xing's body, something Ji Yuan would definitely not do.

"How was it? Was it successful?"

Seeing Ji Yuan stop, Ting Yun quickly asked from the side.

"Of course, this is no problem for me." Ji Yuan gave Tingyun a reassuring look.

He even picked up the baseball bat that Xing had just put on the ground and started swinging it around.

With a few swift movements, Ji Yuan unleashed the destructive power within his body in front of the two.

Xing nodded quickly.

“That’s right, this is the power of the star core in my body.” After she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something and said to Ji Yuan with a shocked expression, “By the way, the star core of Beloberg is in your hands, right? If you absorb the power of that star core into your body, your strength will be enhanced again.”

"Yes, but that star core is related to my experiment, so it can't be used that way."

"Oh fine."

As the group was chatting, Bronya came over and called out that it was lunchtime. Ji Yuan and the others checked their stomachs and realized they were indeed hungry, so they immediately headed towards the restaurant.

After lunch, Tingyun and Xing went shopping in Belleburg. Tingyun had originally wanted to invite Ji Yuan along, but Ji Yuan declined. Given the current situation, the antimatter legion might arrive at any time, and Ji Yuan needed to hurry up and finish his experiments.

So in the afternoon, Ji Yuan hurriedly went to find his teacher, Ruan Mei.

Upon arriving at the lab, Ruan Mei was still napping at the table. Ji Yuan, with his heightened senses, could hear Ruan Mei softly murmuring as she slept.

“Come, my child, as the embodiment of the best genes between your father and me, I will teach you the first lesson of life.”

Ji Yuan was somewhat surprised.

Could a mad scientist like Nguyen Mai really have the idea of ​​teaching children to be loving mothers in their dreams?

"This is a human corpse. We need to start dissecting it from the chest cavity..."

"Whose first lesson in life is dissecting a corpse?!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan couldn't help but be speechless and make a sarcastic remark.

However, after his rant, his expression turned somewhat strange.

This child can only be his.

As Ji Yuan stayed by Ruan Mei's side for a while, Ruan Mei came to her senses. She slowly opened her eyes, and there seemed to be some sorrow in them.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan immediately apologized: "Teacher, I'm sorry to have disturbed your sleep."

Ruan Mei waved her hand gently: "It's nothing, it's just a little regrettable that we can't verify the child's aptitude in his sleep. But a dream is just a dream after all, and if you want to verify it, you still have to do it yourself."

"Let's discuss this after we've completed the experiment."

Ji Yuan quickly changed the subject.

"My experiment has stalled. Have you made any progress on your end?" Ruan Mei spread her hands, looking at her student with a hopeful expression in her eyes.

"Yes, I made some progress just now through the experiment with Xing."

He then told Ruan Mei about his basic techniques for activating and absorbing star core power. At the same time, he used the star core that was currently in the room to conduct an experiment on Ruan Mei.

After the experiment, Nguyen Mai still shook her head in dissatisfaction.

"Although your creativity has strengthened the power emanating from the star core, it is still far from enough. As for absorbing the energy within the star core, it is indeed possible to absorb and utilize the entire power of the star core, which would be most suitable under normal circumstances. However, to fully release those destructive energies requires a very strong capacity to withstand them, and such a capacity is beyond your body, even if I were to create life now."

"Wait, I think I have an idea."

Ji Yuan then spoke to Ruan Mei.

A sudden inspiration struck him, and he had some ideas.

"Oh? What is it?"

"Please wait a moment, teacher."

After saying this, he immediately dialed the number between himself and Silver Wolf. Once the call connected, Silver Wolf's disgruntled voice rang out again.

"What's wrong? What do you want to see me about?"

"Um, I have a question for you. Could you send that blade over here to rent for a couple of days?"

"Huh? What do you want to do with the blade?" Silver Wolf was taken aback by Ji Yuan's words, then immediately asked him, "You're not going to use him as a suicide bomb again, are you?"

"Isn't it risky for others to do this?"

Ji Yuan said earnestly with a shameless grin.

His immortality was a facade, while Blade's body was a genuine immortal one. Bearing the energy of two star cores and then self-destructing shouldn't be a problem, right?

Or rather, if a real problem were to arise, that would be exactly what Ren was hoping for.

Silver Wolf chuckled twice, then said to Ji Yuan, "He told me last time he went back that he never wanted to see you again. Although he wanted to die, being used as a bomb wasn't a pleasant experience. Also, you came at a bad time; Elio was busy getting him to do something else, so he definitely couldn't get away to go over there."

"Ok."

Ji Yuan hung up the phone with some regret.

I wanted to find a perfect host, but he just couldn't come.

Seeing his expression, Nguyen Mai couldn't help but smile and say, "It seems things aren't going well."

"Yes, I was trying to take a shortcut, but it seems that's impossible now."

Ji Yuan scratched his head and answered.

"Isn't that perfect? ​​While taking shortcuts might be convenient in the short term, it ultimately hinders technological progress. In the future, there will always be times when shortcuts won't work. Besides..."

As Ruan Mei said this, she stood up and hugged Ji Yuan from behind.

"I believe in you. You came up with so many ideas in just one day. Given more time, you'll be able to take these ideas even further."

Her chin rested on the top of Ji Yuan's head, her fingers met at Ji Yuan's chin, her little finger lightly brushing across it, teasing Ji Yuan.

Just as Ruan Mei was about to ask Ji Yuan if he wanted to, the guards outside told them that someone was coming.

"It's really bad timing that we're here."

Ruan Mei complained, then released Ji Yuan and prepared to open the door. Ji Yuan also stood up and walked towards the door with Ruan Mei.

Upon arriving at the entrance, they discovered it was a transport convoy from the Interstellar Peace Corporation.

However, compared to a regular company transport team, these people looked utterly disheveled. Their numbers were significantly fewer than a full-strength squad, and many had lost their armor, revealing bandaged wounds.

It's clear that these employees of the Interstellar Peace Corporation came here after experiencing a major war.

Upon seeing this, Ji Yuan immediately asked the transport team, "What happened?"

Upon hearing Ji Yuan's question, an employee covered in full-body mecha mumbled from under his helmet, "Our transport team encountered an attack from the antimatter legion when entering Yalilo from outer space. We suffered considerable casualties to break through the antimatter legion's blockade and get here."

"blockade?"
