As the food was rapidly digested and absorbed.

Chen Shouyi finally felt recovered.

At this moment, he remembered something, his expression changed, and he quickly focused his mind to check the energy vortex in his dantian.

With just one look, Chen Shouyi couldn't help but sigh.

The energy he had painstakingly accumulated over this period was indeed completely drained, just like his physical strength, not a drop was left.

Though he had already suspected it, actually seeing it still made his heart ache; this was nearly two months of accumulation, consumed in a single Giant Transformation. It was truly two months of hard work, and back to square one overnight.

"From now on, unless I encounter a deadly danger, I absolutely can't waste like this again!"

He stood up, dug a hole in the ground, and buried the bones properly.

Then he headed towards the cave, but suddenly felt a stir in his heart and walked to the place where he had fought earlier.

What greeted his eyes were trees all leaning askew, weeds torn apart, and the ground full of huge potholes and ravines.

Some of the pits even had diameters of seven or eight meters, and were two meters deep. The entire area of several hundred square meters seemed to have been ravaged.

When he transformed into a giant, because of the change in perspective, he hadn't felt much.

But now, having returned to his normal size, Chen Shouyi could feel the terrifying power he had in the giant state.

He walked to that area which had turned into ashes, and the white ash on the ground was already reaching up to his knees.

Chen Shouyi took a glance and his expression turned serious.

The ashes were very fine, just a silky dust, without a trace of residual carbon, indicating that the combustion was very complete at a very high temperature. On Earth, it would require at least a thousand degrees Celsius and a considerable amount of time to achieve this effect.

In this world, the required temperature is undoubtedly much higher than on Earth.

Two thousand degrees Celsius, three thousand degrees Celsius, or even higher.

"Thankfully, it didn't spew out. Otherwise, even if I didn't die, I would probably have been seriously injured." Chen Shouyi thought, feeling a sense of fear.

"This is definitely a horrifying creature. Even in my Giant Transformation state, repeatedly smashing it, it still was fine. Its defense strength almost matched mine."

"However, my defense relies on pure physical body, while that serpent-like creature probably relies on that slimy defensive force field on its body. Each of my attacks had its force reduced by the force field, which greatly diminished the effect."

Shell Lady was watching the dark surroundings with vigilant eyes, seeing that Chen Shouyi had been standing for quite a while, she quickly urged, "Great Giant, let's return to the cave quickly."

Chen Shouyi snapped back to reality, glanced at this useless coward, and said irritably:

"We'll go back right now!"

...

The weather in the otherworld was getting colder.

Especially at night, the temperature had already dropped to around five or six degrees, but even so, after practicing the Thirty-six Forms of Horizontal Training, Chen Shouyi still broke into a sweaty heat.

Feeling a faint energy vortex reappear in his dantian.

He sighed again, it was completely incomparable to before.

Truly a moment of impulse, a lifetime of regret.

After resting for a while until his strength slightly recovered, he practiced once more.

This was the first time he had come to the otherworld in half a month, so he naturally wanted to seize the time to train.

With the continuous optimization of the Thirty-six Forms of Body Training.

The proportion of Original Force in the cultivation technique was becoming increasingly higher.

In the first optimized version.

There was no demand for Original Force at all, and there was basically no significant difference between Earth and the other world or no stark difference.

In the second optimized version, there was already a certain demand for Original Force, and its effect in the otherworld was noticeably better than on Earth.

As for the third optimized version, the demand for Original Force increased further, and the effect of training in the otherworld was more than seven or eight times that of Earth; during the half month on Earth, his physical attributes only improved agility by 0.1 points, the speed was appallingly slow.

...

In the evening, as the sun descended to the west.

The increasingly severe haze made the sky seem to be covered with a faint mist, the weather was exceedingly sultry.

The Safe Zone had calmed down considerably, no longer with the previous panic among people.

As soon as Chen Shouyi returned home, he was stopped by his sister.

"Brother, I have something to talk to you about." Chen Xingyue said somewhat bashfully.

"What is it this time?" Chen Shouyi asked curiously.

"Today the principal came to see me and asked me to ask you if you could give a lecture at the school!" Chen Xingyue said.

"No time, there's nothing worth talking about!" Chen Shouyi said without hesitation, he was already too busy with his daily training to have time for such things.

"Then I'll tell the teacher that." Chen Xingyue immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said.

Seeing her brother traipse on the stage and talk, always felt awkward, especially with the class's group of infatuated girls, who now talked about her brother in front of her every day, making her feel embarrassed yet unable to ignore it.

At this moment, Chen Xingyue suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh right, remember Zhou Xue, the landlord's daughter from when we rented a house in Changmen Town?"

"Of course I do, why?" Chen Shouyi said.

Zhou Xue, he naturally remembered, they had even gone to Ningzhou together to take the apprentice examination, a pretty young girl, just a bit cold in personality.

"I saw her today, at our college, her family moved here too, but her personality is still as arrogant; when I talked to her, she hardly responded!" Chen Xingyue said somewhat angrily.

Changmen Town is not far from Dongning, evidently it was also affected.

"I remember you didn't have any conflicts with her!" Chen Shouyi said in surprise.

"Just can't stand her, if you're going to find a girlfriend, don't find this kind!" Chen Xingyue warned in advance.

"What's my girlfriend got to do with you, you're not jealous, are you?" Chen Shouyi cast a disgruntled sideways glance at her.

Chen Xingyue immediately bristled: "What am I jealous of, I'm already a quasi-Martial Artist, she's still just a Martial Artist Apprentice, I'm in the advanced class, she's still in the beginner class, what do I have to be jealous of."

Knowing so much, no wonder, the other party treated you with indifference.

In this regard, Chen Shouyi could relate, after every exam when the papers were handed out, he would stay far from those who, while seemingly concerning themselves with his scores, were actually waiting for him to ask them, so they could ostentatiously reveal their much higher scores.

Unwilling to see his sister being so arrogant, Chen Shouyi immediately countered:

"But she's prettier than you!"

"Then you must be blind, what's prettier about her than me, in high school, I received several love letters every day!" Chen Xingyue said defiantly.

Several letters?

Boasting, aren't you?

Chen Shouyi scoffed inwardly, with your A-cup?

Just as Chen Shouyi was about to continue his verbal attacks, Mrs. Chen put the dishes on the table, saying irritably:

"You're both grown-ups, yet you bicker relentlessly every day, eat now!"
