Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating Chapter 94

94 The Mystery of the Underground Spiritual Energy Renaissance

“Apart from the City Lord's Office, End End and the Southern Star had immediately sent people with gifts to congratulate Lu Yu.”

The trusted aide replied truthfully.

Guan Shan could not understand the attitude from the City Lord's Office, but soon, he made a decision. “Prepare a big gift immediately and send it to the Central Dojo.”

“Yes, Sir!”

The trusted aide nodded.

To many people's surprise, Lu Yu wasn't held accountable. On the contrary, all the major factions sent gifts to congratulate the Central Dojo on becoming stronger and stronger. This made many people puzzled.

Back at the Distant North Dojo.

Over the past few days, there had been a major purge from the inside out. Having turned into a northern branch of the Central Dojo, the revamped dojo recruited a group of new staff to guard this place.

“In the past few days, besides the City Lord's Office, many factions in Lunan City have been sending gifts.”

Qin Yong looked at the gift boxes that filled the room and clicked his tongue. “These guys certainly knew what's good for them.”

“It's just a superficial gesture. These people may appear to be giving gifts and being on good terms with Lu Yu, but in fact, they're hinting to Lu Yu that he should stop and not go too far. They're using soft knives to intimidate him.”

Song Yu saw through their tactics and said with a sneer.

Qin Yong scratched his head and said, “Sigh! I don't understand the twists and turns in this whole business either. I've been so busy with classes these past few days. I wonder when Captain Lu will come out?”

Just as the two of them were talking about Lu Yu, he appeared and brought them to the treasure vault of the Distant North Dojo. He had been taking stock inside the treasure vault for the past few days.

He pushed open the door and entered. It was filled with armor and weapons, as well as many skill techniques.

Lu Yu smiled and said, “You guys can take whatever you need.”

Qin Yong said with a guilty look, “Captain Lu, it's all thanks to you that we were able to take down the Distant North Dojo. How can I possibly take it?”

Lu Yu patted his shoulder and said, “There's no need to say so much. Just take it.”

Song Yu, on the other hand, was open-minded. She chuckled and said, “In that case, I shall not hold back.”

She was now a Great Martial Master. The weapons and armor on her body were no longer suitable for her and needed to be upgraded.

In this dazzling treasure vault, Song Yu found a B-class fiery red light armor and a fiery red long sword.

[Scarlet Flame Leather Armor]

[Level: B-class]

[Introduction: Made from the hide of a Scarlet Flame Beast. It is astonishingly tough and has a certain chance of triggering the power of Scarlet Flame to counterattack the opponent.]

[Scarlet Flame Sword]

[Level: class]

[Introduction: Made from the crystal core of a Scarlet Flame Beast. It contains the power of Scarlet Flame. There is a certain chance of triggering a serious injury effect and reducing the opponent's recovery effect by 50%.]

Song Yu simply adored the Scarlet Flame Leather Armor and the Scarlet Flame Sword.

In particular, she liked the serious injury effect and the reduction of recovery effect by 50%. As long as she could injure her opponent first in battle, she would have a huge advantage.

Dressed in red leather armor and holding a red sword, a valiant and heroic aura immediately came over her whole being.

Lu Yu's eyes lit up with approval. This set of equipment suited Song Yu to a T. It was practically tailor-made for her.

As for Qin Yong, he chose a fist technique and fell in love with it.

[Primordial Chaos Fist]

[Level: class]

[Introduction: By condensing the power of the Primordial Chaos in your body and circulating it through your muscles, bones, flesh, and blood, you can strengthen your body at all times. Coupled with a training technique that can increase your health vitality, you can achieve a tenfold increase in strength.]

Qin Yong chuckled and said, “Captain Lu, what did you choose?”

Lu Yu shook his head and said indifferently, “Leave these armor, weapons, and skill techniques to the other people at the Central Dojo, Let them use them to elevate their abilities.”

Here, Lu Yu did not find any armor or weapons suitable for his current Great Grand Master level, so he was not interested.

“Honorable Mr. Lu, we found an underground secret door in the northwest corner of the Distant North Dojo. Please take a look.”

At this moment, a Martial Master came up to report the situation.

Lu Yu was surprised by this news. Led by this Martial Master, they arrived at the secret door. Song Yu and Qin Yong hesitated for a moment before following them.

The bronze door emitted a dark, dank and musty smell.

Lu Yu pushed the door open. Immediately, a gust of cold wind blew out, freezing them to their bones. Song Yu and Qin Yong, who were behind him, shivered involuntarily.

Even Lu Yu felt a chill, as if he was inside a snow mountain.

The chilly wind stopped temporarily. At this moment, a rich, dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth gushed out, making Lu Yu's body tremble.

This spiritual energy of heaven and earth was of the same type that Hong Shaling had released at that time. After Lu Yu had killed Yi Han, the spiritual energy disappeared again. He did not expect it to come from behind this secret door.

“What a rich, dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth!”

Song Yu and Qin Yong were very surprised.

In the hundred years since the Spiritual Energy Renaissance, on average, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the atmosphere of the entire Federation was relatively scarce and could not be used for cultivation directly. However, the spiritual energy here was 30 to 40 times richer.

Lu Yu, Song Yu, and Qin Yong went through the secret door.

Inside was a huge cavern. In the long and narrow corridor, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that blew out contained a trace of killing intent and malevolence, like the aura of a Fearsome Beast.

At the end of the corridor, the sound of dripping water could be heard. It was the sound of water dripping down various ice rocks, forming puddles on the ground.

Among the ice rocks, there were numerous corpses of strange-looking Fearsome Beasts sealed in ice. Even the murderous aura emitted by the corpses of these F-class Fearsome Beasts was not something that C-class Fearsome Beasts in the world outside could compare to.

Lu Yu's body trembled as a look of realization hit him.

It was no wonder that when he killed Yi Han, the system recognized him as a foreign species. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here was tainted with the aura from these Fearsome Beasts' corpses. After the cultivators absorbed it, they would exude the aura of Fearsome Beasts.

Qin Yong shattered a piece of ice rock with a punch and pulled out the corpse of a Gale Mane Steed. He dissected it and discovered that the murderous aura contained within the corpse was shockingly dense.

“This is?”

Qin Yong got a big shock.

He remembered that in the military training class, the instructor had once said that a hundred years ago, during the Spiritual Energy Renaissance, many underground caverns that spewed out spiritual energy of heaven and earth appeared on the Blue Star Continent. All kinds of terrifying Fearsome Beasts rushed out from those caverns, ushering in the prelude to a disaster.

Experts from the Federation had studied these beasts for most of their lives, but they were still unable to find out where these Fearsome Beasts came from.

In that case, how did these people infect batch after batch of beasts and mutate them into Fearsome Beasts?

“This place was one of the underground caverns that appeared on the Blue Star Continent a hundred years ago.”

Song Yu immediately understood what was buried under the Distant North Dojo.

She couldn't help but feel a trace of fear.

One could imagine how terrifying the Fearsome Beasts that rushed out from here were back then.

The underground cavern was like a door to hell. It released the nightmarish Fearsome Beasts inside, bringing disaster to humans and also bringing about the Spiritual Energy Renaissance and the awakening of the martial arts. Humans could now train, then cultivate to become cultivators.

The corpses of the Fearsome Beasts here were the same as the first batch of Fearsome Beasts from a hundred years ago. The corpses of these Fearsome Beasts had a certain research value. If they were sent to the military zone, they might be able to come to some conclusions and perhaps uncover some long-forgotten secrets.

Lu Yu wondered, “Why did they die here?”

“Were they killing each other, or had something happened?”

Just like the Spiritual Energy Renaissance in the world, this had become a mystery that no one could unravel.
