Chapter 48: Interested in Energy Absorption?



Back then, City Lord Yu Longqing absorbed 137 strands of Source Energy on the day of his assessment, earning him the reputation of a super-genius in White Roc City, appearing once in a century.

In other words, someone in the Energy Storing Realm absorbing about a hundred strands of Source Energy in a day would be considered extraordinary.

Yet here was Zhang Xuan, effortlessly absorbing Source Energy and forming tornadoes of it...

The phenomenon known as "Devouring Source Dragon" occurs when someone absorbs Source Energy too quickly, creating air currents that resemble a dragon... This is supposed to be a mythical phenomenon!

Even if someone could actually do this, they would likely need to be beyond the ninth level of the Source Pool Realm, yet this young man, whom he had just dismissed, did it so easily...

The most incredible part was that it wasn\'t even deliberate cultivation but a casual realization while reading...

His posture made it clear that this insight was as effortless as dozing off, not intentional!

Achieving this casually, what cultivation method was he using? What grade of furnace had he ignited?

Filled with shock, Su Qiao knew that the young man\'s sudden entry into this realm had to be due to the book he was reading. Unable to contain his curiosity, he quickly looked at the book\'s cover.

"Energy Absorption Storing Technique... huh????" Su Qiao was dumbfounded.

Energy Absorption Storing Technique... is a fringe method. The so-called "Absorption" doesn\'t refer to "plucking flowers" but rather finding things in nature, such as minerals and herbs, and absorbing their Source Energy to accumulate power.

This was a very poor technique, rarely practiced, and hardly ever read...

And yet, he achieved enlightenment with this?

Was this a joke?

Rustling!

As he marveled, he saw the young man\'s rapid absorption of Source Energy causing the surrounding books to be swept into the air, some being torn to pieces.

"Disaster... if this continues, the library\'s books will be shredded!"

His face changed color, and Su Qiao no longer cared about his book. He rushed out, ran to the young man, and started pulling the nearby bookshelves back.

"What are you all standing around for? Hurry and help!"

Seeing that moving the bookshelves away from the vortex indeed kept the books out of danger, Su Qiao sighed in relief and couldn\'t help but turn around to scold the others.

The library didn\'t just have Su Qiao as an auxiliary teacher. There were several others responsible for organizing and categorizing the books. At this moment, they were all stunned by the scene before them, frozen in place and unsure of what to do.

Hearing the command, they hurried over, pulling each bookshelf away from Zhang Xuan.

After doing this, they couldn\'t help but look at the old man in front of them.

"Elder Su, what is happening... why is this teacher suddenly absorbing Source Energy so crazily?"

"Well..."

After a moment of silence, Su Qiao speculated, "He must be... very interested in \'energy absorption\'..."

"Energy absorption?"

All the auxiliary teachers were dumbfounded.

‘Does he have such a strong desire?’

...

"Here is the salary I have proposed for Teacher Zhang Xuan. What do you all think?"

In the dean\'s office, Lu Mingrong looked at the Vice Principle Wu Yunzhou and the others, as well as the various elders.

These were the most influential figures in White Rock Academy. Even major decisions like hiring new teachers or student recruitment could be decided directly when they gathered together.

But today, there was disagreement.

"He\'s a newly hired teacher, just starting to cultivate, and doesn\'t know much... giving him 5000 Source Coins a month, isn\'t that too high?"

A female elder frowned, her eyes full of doubt.

Third Elder He Qin.

"Yes, although he is a genius, the assessment only shows that his Source Pool is strong and broad. It doesn\'t guarantee smooth future cultivation. If the furnace doesn\'t ignite well, the larger the Source Pool, the slower the cultivation, and the lower the future achievements..."

Fifth Elder Chen Jinlin.

He compared the Source Pool to a pond and the furnace to a water pump. A larger pond can hold more fish, but if the water pump is too small, the pond may dry up before it can support life...

"Elder Chen is right. The furnace is crucial. How about this: if this genius can absorb more than 50 strands of Source Energy in one day, I won\'t oppose the 5000 Source Coins salary."

After a moment of contemplation, Second Elder Wu Liuyun spoke.

"I also agree with Elder Wu\'s view. Just starting to store energy and being able to absorb fifty strands a day, even if the furnace isn\'t very strong, it\'s still not weak. It\'s above the level of most teachers, so a salary of 5000 Source Coins is justified."

Ran Qingxu stroked his beard and nodded in agreement.

"Absorbing fifty strands a day?"

Lu Mingrong said, "Alright then! How about this, I\'ll personally look for something to ignite his furnace, aiming to make his furnace stronger than mine..."

"That\'s nearly impossible!"

Wu Yunzhou smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Dean, back then you caught a \'Hundred-leaf Singing Cicada.\' Although it wasn\'t a top-grade Source Beast, it was incredibly rare... Where can we find such a treasure now?"

"Well..."

Lu Mingrong frowned, "But if such a genius\'s achievements are limited due to a poorly ignited furnace, wouldn\'t that be a great loss?"

"When he becomes stronger in the future, he can replace it with better treasures. For now, White Rock Academy\'s conditions are limited..."

Wu Yunzhou began to explain but was interrupted by a hurried knock on the door.

Lu Mingrong: "Come in!"

Immediately, they saw Su Qiao, the elder in charge of the library, striding in.

"Greetings, Dean Lu, esteemed elders!" Su Qiao quickly bowed.

"Why is Elder Su here?" Lu Mingrong frowned.

Elder Su rarely left the library, so his sudden appearance suggested something urgent.

"The newly hired teacher Zhang Xuan just now... ignited his furnace and absorbed Source Energy in the library, attempting to enter the Energy Storing Realm..." Su Qiao explained.

"What? Igniting the furnace?"

Lu Mingrong stood up abruptly, looking anxious. "This is too reckless!"

"Indeed!"

Wu Yunzhou was also deeply pained. "He\'s just a groom with no resources and hasn\'t learned any techniques. Igniting the furnace just by reading a book, without even finding a proper igniter... This is a serious mistake!"

"It\'s over. With the power of Source Beasts as an igniter, his future path could have been much further. Doing it this way almost cuts off his potential... Forget fifty strands, absorbing ten strands a day would already be impressive..."

Ran Qingxu also had a bitter smile on his face.

"He probably just started absorbing Source Energy. Hurry and stop him; it might not be too late..."

Lu Mingrong hurriedly spoke, but before he could finish, he saw Su Qiao looking at him awkwardly. "Dean, please don\'t worry and let me finish... This Zhang Xuan, I don\'t know what level of furnace he ignited, but it triggered the \'Devouring Source Dragon\' phenomenon! Now, the entire library is in chaos, and I can\'t handle it..."

"???"

"Devouring Source Dragon? The phenomenon that allows one to absorb 50 strands of Source Energy in a single breath?"

The room fell silent. Everyone strained their ears, afraid they had misheard.
