Chapter 84: Way of Eating

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As a matter of fact, Tang Ling was already up when his mouth was covered. He tried to struggle but it was futile.

Even though he had been through a month of devil training and had improved more than twice as better, he still could not break free.

It seems like I’m still very weak , thought Tang Ling. Since struggling was futile, he simply let the person carry him away as he shut his eyes and went back to sleep.

“You little bastard, sleeping so soundly, I see?” Su Yao was agitated, so he simply threw Tang Ling on the ground after he arrived at a secluded forest.

Tang Ling rubbed his eyes and stretched his body. He actually knew it was Su Yao who had abducted him when he started to struggle. He was just trying to show the results of his training and might have been able to somewhat fight back, but he realized it was futile, so why not seize the time and head back to dreamland? What else could he possibly do?

Rubbing his painful backside after the fall, Tang Ling sized up his surroundings. It seemed like they were still on top of the cliff as the wind whistled, and the difference in temperature between day and night was even more pronounced because of the altitude.

Shuddering, Tang Ling warmed his hands up with his breath. Su Yao seemed to be building a fire beside him, but when he saw Tang Ling shudder, he mocked, “It seems like after a month of training, you aren’t all that better either. Can’t you even withstand a little cold?”

Tang Ling did not care about Su Yao. He skillfully rubbed the flint that Su Yao prepared and lit the wood chips that Su Yao ground out from the trees. He said, “Withstanding the cold or whatsoever isn’t important. Even if I’m weaker than I am now, I won’t become a thief.”

“Do you want a beating?” Su Yao raised a curious brow and helped build the fire skillfully.

“Give me back my high nutrition paste.” Tang Ling was not afraid since he was beaten up by the lousy swinging logs almost every day, so even if he still could not beat Su Yao, his resistance against beating must have gone up a little, would it not?

“Hehehe.” Su Yao laughed in disdain as he took a small metal pot out from his backpack. He put it over the fire and casually poured a bottle of water inside it.

Then, under Tang Ling’s horrified gaze, Su Yao took the high nutrition paste out and slowly poured it into the pot.

“Why the hell are you diluting my high nutrition paste!?” Tang Ling growled with gnashing teeth. He felt disgusted that his high nutrition paste was wasted. Who knew whether or not the steam from the boiling water would carry away the nutrition in the paste?

“What kind of bumpkin are you? You feel pain just for this little thing?” Su Yao cruelly trampled over Tang Ling’s heart, but he was not slow at all as he took several more things out of his backpack. There was the stem of a plant and something inside a transparent test tube. Everything was then put into the boiling pot.

“It looks disgusting.” Tang Ling squatted down and took care of the fire instead.

The forest at the edge of the cliff was unusually quiet as the misty Purple Moon felt like it was right in front of them. The stars were bright and the Milky Way extended vastly in the night sky that was mysterious and distant.

Beneath the cliff, Safety Sector No. 17 had not gone to sleep yet. The lights in the inner city were still flashing and the candles at the outer city were still lit as though they were stars on Earth.

The night was beautiful.

But what about the settlement outside the wall?

It was too blurry for a clearer look, but its color seemed to have blended with the forest of the Secondary Safety Zone. It was dark green in color and almost seemed black under the night.

The vitality of the shrubs was not something to be worried about. It had been a month plus and the shrubs would have regrown to a lush and healthy state.

However, what about the people that once lived there? Those who worked day and night just for the sake of survival yet were unable to assure their safety and constantly lived on the edge of death. Even his grandmother and sister had once been there.

Tang Ling dared not look at it anymore. Instead, he looked down and the heavy feelings flooded him.

Su Yao might have sensed something, but he did not care or bother to comfort the boy because it was unnecessary.

The gurgling noise came from the metal pot as the soup with many things mixed into it started to boil.

Su Yao took something that was wrapped in paper out. It turned out to be 50 grams of Level 3 vicious beast meat. He shredded it and tossed the bits into the pot.

The vicious beast meat belonged to Tang Ling. It had been confiscated by Su Yao after the first exam.

Since Tang Ling exposed the level 3 vicious beast meat, it was not suitable for him to keep it anymore.

“Now, I shall teach you a special way of eating,” said Su Yao.

Tang Ling was all ears.

“This is actually an ancient method that got lost in time, but because of some special reason, it has reappeared. Combined with a special pose and technique, it can hasten your bowel movements,” Su Yao simply explained his special way of eating.

“What’s the use then?” Tang Ling asked.

“You can absorb better and faster!” Su Yao lit a cigarette and continued, “Your digestive system must have enough time to digest the food you consume, so if you can absorb better and convert them into nutrients for your body, it means there’s higher efficiency. ”

“Think about it. Others eat five meals a day and what they digest is less than 60%. You eat 10 meals a day and can digest up to 80% of the food you consume. As it goes on, how much of an improvement will it bring to your body?”

“Why not 100% and 20 meals a day?” Tang Ling looked up with his question.

“Are you being an assh*le now?” Su Yao kicked him away.

After Tang Ling crawled back, Su Yao explained, “All things must proceed accordingly. As long as you can master this way of eating, plus the improvement in your body, your digestive system will surely be boosted to new heights. Until then, even if you digest your own shit, who could say otherwise?” Su Yao said seriously with squinted eyes as the cigarette dangled in his mouth.

Tang Ling was speechless! He had no interest in digesting his own shit!

The fire was warm whilst the pot on top of it was still boiling the mishmashed soup.

He was already learning the new way of eating from Su Yao.

There were a total of eight weird poses, and he had to experience his own bowel movements. Through the control of his outer muscles and some little shakes, his bowel movements were affected. It was simple when explained but difficult to execute.

His Precise Instinct was very effective during his learning. It allowed Tang Ling to sharply observe all the details of the eight weird poses, and he was able to precisely perform it the first time.

His powerful spirit also came into play, allowing him to easily feel his own bowel movements and quickly enabled him to control certain parts of his muscles, hence hastening his bowel movements.

Besides that, learning the way of eating by simply mimicking was obviously not enough.

Through understanding the theory behind it himself, he could then deepen his learning, and it seemed like his ability to comprehend things were decent as well.

Su Yao did not show any admiration on his face as if it was only natural that Tang Ling could do it, but deep in his heart, he was cursing and grumbling relentlessly. ‘Goddamn it! How come it took me three days to barely pose by myself when I learned it?’
