“Yes…” Elaine’s mental state was still filled with panic, but she had resigned herself to her fate: “So many fireflies, so many points of light, so beautiful…”
Because Yang Shen's mental fluctuations were completely in sync with Yi Lian's at this moment, almost all of their perceptions were shared.
Aside from the thoughts in one's mind, all senses such as touch, smell, and vision are shared.
"That's good. Remember this feeling carefully."
Yang Shen smiled slightly, very satisfied. With a thought, he sent the energy factors floating in the air rapidly into Elaine's body.
Immediately, Elaine's pores opened up, and her body cells began to crave energy.
However, unlike absorbing energy himself, because Elaine's physique was too weak, Yang Shen soon felt waves of expansion.
Moreover, as more and more energy factors flowed into her body, Elaine's petite body began to expand at a visible rate.
"I'm going to die... I'm going to burst..." Elaine's mental fluctuations suddenly became extremely intense.
Yang Shen quickly stopped absorbing energy, slightly furrowing Elaine's beautiful brows as he carefully sensed it.
He could sense that Elaine's body cells were slowly absorbing the energy entering her body, but the absorption rate was too slow.
So he tried exercising, from small movements to large movements, such as stepping, stretching, and jumping.
Because of his extremely strong control over Elaine's body, he was able to clearly sense the state of Elaine's body cells.
He discovered that because some cells were compressed, those cells absorbed energy at a faster rate.
"Does it actively absorb energy to adapt to oppression?"
"Moreover, the rate at which cells absorb energy varies depending on the level of pressure applied; this pressure doesn't seem to be simply creating stress on the cells..."
"Is a balance between work and rest important?"
Yang Shen had a sudden thought and changed his movements. His movements became increasingly strange, such as bending over, pressing his legs, or punching.
He carefully sensed it, trying to find the pattern.
He then discovered that the rate at which the body's cells absorb energy differs between simply pressing a local cell and simultaneously pressing multiple cells with a continuous movement.
Gradually, Yang Shen found some patterns and slowly adjusted his movements.
His movements became increasingly strange and complex. Some of his movements looked very awkward and embarrassing, but if multiple movements were linked together, it would cause the cells to absorb energy at a sudden and significant speed.
Moreover, while individual movements may feel awkward and embarrassing, when strung together, they appear fluid and graceful.
Especially when Elaine uses her body to perform these actions, it looks very pleasing to the eye.
Gradually, as the movements became more fluid, Yang Shen clearly sensed that Elaine's body cells were absorbing energy faster and faster, and the energy stored in her body was being rapidly devoured by her body cells.
Cells that absorb energy quickly become stronger, while those that cannot adapt die off rapidly. New cells divide and grow, and the metabolic rate gradually increases.
Furthermore, Yang Shen discovered that the body's breathing rhythm also affects the speed of energy absorption, so he adjusted his breathing rhythm to match his body movements.
As a result, the body absorbs energy at a faster rate, and the energy previously absorbed into the body is quickly consumed.
Soon, his body's energy was exhausted, and Yang Shen absorbed energy from the air to replenish it.
Elaine's body gradually became drenched in sweat, and traces of blood were expelled from her pores.
Unlike his own body, Elaine's body could absorb energy to become stronger. With the acceleration of her metabolism, Yang Shen could clearly feel that Elaine's physique was rapidly becoming stronger, breaking through her limits time and time again.
As her physical condition improved, Elaine's originally thin body gradually became fuller and more beautiful.
"So, by speeding up the metabolism of body cells, we can increase the rate at which body cells absorb energy?"
Yang Shen seemed to understand something.
It turns out that not only do animals follow the law of the forest, but even body cells follow these rules.
Survival of the fittest is the law of nature, and what Yang Shen needs to do is accelerate this process of elimination and rebirth.
Time passed slowly, from afternoon to evening, to midnight, until the sky gradually brightened with the first light of dawn—
Yang Shen finally figured out a complete set of movements and breathing rhythms. As long as these movements are performed in conjunction with the special breathing rhythm, the body can absorb energy much faster.
Moreover, the speed at which these actions are performed also greatly affects the speed at which energy is absorbed.
Yang Shen didn't stop until the sun rose on the horizon.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue, but Elaine's body was too exhausted. The enhancement was too drastic, and she was unable to use it properly. Continuing might cause problems.
At this point, Elaine's physique and strength had more than doubled. If others knew about this rate of improvement, they would be absolutely dumbfounded.
...
Facing the rising sun, Liang San went to the outer district to inquire about news as usual. Because of the rule that entering the inner district for trading requires handing over materials, many ordinary people cannot enter the inner district. If they want to find out news from the outside, the outer district is the most suitable place.
The first place Liang San chooses every day is the entrance and exit of the safe zone.
This is the easiest place to get useful information. Just give the soldiers guarding the city gate a cigarette, and they can chat for a long time.
Because of the mysterious Level 7 ability user who abducted a large number of ordinary people yesterday, many of the guards at the gate have been replaced.
