Chapter 114: Stealing Skill

Han Xinyue followed Zhuo Yuyan’s gaze and looked at Zhu Lin and the others. When her eyes fell on the faint golden light that enveloped the four people, her sleepiness disappeared instantly.

Knowing that her friend also saw the faint golden light, Zhuo Yuyan asked, "Yue Yue, could it be the reason why they can become so powerful is because of the way they train?"

After hearing what she said, Han Xinyue thought for a while and said, "It’s possible. Judging from their battle with the weird zombie today, their strength should be stronger than those third rank supernatural beings. But so far, the highest level recorded for abilities is only third rank. If they really have abilities above third rank just relying on fighting against zombies and mutants, then they must kill a lot of zombies and mutants."

After saying that, she looked at Zhuo Yuyan and said, "The news about the crystal nucleus was just released a few days ago. No matter how many crystal nucleus they have, the number of crystal nucleus they can absorb every day is limited. Moreover, absorbing crystal nucleus has serious side effects. Based on these facts alone, the only answer to their strength lies in the way they train."

Zhuo Yuyan nodded and said, "I think so too."

The two of them fell silent after that, and turned to look at the four people enveloped in a faint golden light. After a moment of silence, Zhuo Yuyan’s heartbeat quickened as she asked, "Yue Yue, do you want to try it?"

The two of them are the only ones in their team who can fight. If they want to survive in this dangerous apocalyptic world, they must improve their abilities and honed their combat experience. If they had not come with Zhu Lin and the others today, the four of them would have died as soon as the weird zombie appeared.

Thinking of her helplessness during the day, Han Xinyue clenched her hands tightly. She nodded and said, "Yes. If we want to survive with dignity, we have to get stronger."

Looking at her determined expression, Zhuo Yuyan smiled and said, "I heard everything Elder Sister Zhu Lin said when she taught Captain Xiu and the others, and I have remembered them all. We can just follow her instructions step by step."

"Mhm."

Tu Tu, who was lying on Zhu Lin’s lap, watching the two of them trying to sit cross-legged clumsily. After several minutes of struggling, they finally got the correct sitting position. When they finally closed their eyes and started to circulate their spiritual energy, Tu Tu had already finished the second giant carrot.

The rabbit looked at the two of them and thought: ’Untalented and reckless. Human nature is indeed difficult to change.’

An hour later, Tu Tu felt the faint flow of spiritual energy in the air coming from them. The rabbit raised its eyes from the giant carrot and watched how they slowly and awkwardly moved the spiritual energy through their meridians. Half an hour later, Han Xinyue managed to complete a circle, while Zhuo Yuyan took forty minutes before she managed to complete a circle.

When the first ray of sunlight shone into the dilapidated house through the broken windows, Zhu Lin opened her eyes. She exhaled a breath of turbid air and stretched her body, feeling refreshed and relaxed.

Just when she was about to wake up Tu Tu, she suddenly felt that there was a devil energy in the room. When Zhu Lin turned her head to look in the direction of the source of the devil energy, she saw that Han Xinyue and Zhuo Yuyan’s bodies had been shrouded in faint black energy as their expressions showed pain.

She wasted no time, stood up and pressed some of their meridian gates to forcefully cutted off the flow of energy inside their bodies. Han Xinyue woke up faster than Zhuo Yuyan, and she coughed up a few mouthfuls of black blood.

"Cough! Cough!"

As for Zhuo Yuyan, because her spiritual energy circulated slower than Han Xinyue’s, she only spat out a little bit of black blood.

"Pff! Cough, cough..."

Zhu Lin stood in front of them, looking at them expressionlessly. Looking up and seeing her looking at them like this, the two of them couldn’t help but feel guilty. It’s really uncomfortable and embarrassing to be caught red-handed stealing someone else’s skill.

Zhuo Yuyan wiped the black blood from her lips and said, "Elder Sister Zhu Lin, it is me who stole your skill. If you want to blame someone, just blame me."

Before Zhu Lin could speak, Han Xinyue said quickly: "It’s not Yuyan’s fault. It’s because I want to give it a try. If you want to blame someone, then please blame me instead."

While the two of them were talking, Meng Zhelan and Wen Na were woken up by the noise. Xiu Wu, Ji Yang and Tan Wei already woke up the moment they felt the devil energy in the air.

Seeing the black blood on the lips of Han Xinyue and Zhuo Yuyan, Wen Na asked in surprise: "What happened to both of you? Are you guys okay?"

Hearing Wen Na’s surprised and worried voice, Meng Zhelan came back to her senses. She didn’t understand why her friends were vomiting blood while Zhu Lin looked at them expressionlessly.

After a long silence, Zhu Lin squatted down and held Han Xinyue’s right wrist. She checked her pulse for a while and then checked on Zhuo Yuyan’s pulse too. Two minutes later, she looked at them and said, "You two are lucky. If you don’t spit out the black blood, you will turn into a zombie."

As soon as she finished speaking, Han Xinyue and Zhuo Yuyan’s faces suddenly turned pale.

Sensing their fear, Zhu Lin said calmly: "It’s really reckless to do something you haven’t done before without preparation, and try something new without guidance. Even though meditation seems easy, it’s not as simple as you think. Remember, never meditate under the sun. If you want to do it during the day, make sure the sunlight doesn’t touch your body."
