45 Muscle Aura

Lu Zhen slowly inhaled and exhaled the air as he walked forward.

[You have adapted to Grimgar poisons.] f(r)eewebn(o)vel.com

[Your Adapt skill has levelled up from Level 3 to Level 4.]

Seeing the level-up prompt, Lu Zhen felt satisfied. However, nothing happened after the prompt. No matter how hard he inhaled the poison, he couldn't level up at all.

Lu Zhen frowned as he sensed that the poison no longer affected him in any way. Whenever he inhaled the poison, it felt like air to him, and his body showed no reaction, preventing him from leveling up.

"Looks like I can't level up at all with this poison now," Lu Zhen thought with some disappointment. He had thought that since the system prompt even showed the name of the poison, it was special. However, only levelling up his Adapt skill twice with it left him feeling a little disappointed.

"Weak poison, I thought it was special," Lu Zhen said, pausing for a second.

"Since I can't level up my Adapt skill, it would be useless to me now." Looking at the colourless poison in the air as if he could see the poison, Lu Zhen felt a little disappointed. However, he suddenly thought of a way to make use of this poison.

"Oh, Xia Long, you are going to die a miserable death today," Lu Zhen sneered. Although he didn't know who had caused this poison, his hunch told him it must have been Xia Long.

Lu Zhen took a deep breath, exhaling for a full two minutes before stopping. He felt that he had reached his limits.

In the dim cave, he glanced at his reflection, which was barely visible. His body appeared a bit weaker than before, but his muscles emanated a terrifying aura. His abs were defined pure muscle, and his slightly smaller biceps had a more profound and menacing shape. Even his legs were more muscular, though slightly deflated.

Lu Zhen found himself taken aback as he detected a significant change in his aura. It was a transformation he hadn't anticipated. Without a moment's hesitation, he decided to release it, wanting to understand the extent of this newfound power.

As he let his aura spill out, a dense and imposing atmosphere began to pervade the surroundings. Rocks in the cave started to emit eerie creaking sounds, as if they were bearing the weight of an immense force. The sensation coursing through him was unusual and exhilarating.

In particular, he noticed his deflated muscles responding to this release of aura. They seemed to resonate with it, pulsating with newfound strength. A pleasurable sensation washed over him, and he couldn't help but marvel at the transformation happening within him. His deflated muscles resonated with his aura.

Gradually, the creaking sounds echoed beneath Lu Zhen as rocks cracked due to the influence of his aura. He was amazed but promptly ceased releasing his aura, returning the surroundings to stillness.

"Could my aura have reached a level where it can materialize?" Lu Zhen contemplated this thought. Typically, one's aura could affect the surroundings only when they had reached the first rank of martial arts or an equivalent combat power level. Considering his strength, he doubted that he had reached the combat strength of a second-stage martial artist or higher. Comparing his aura to other martial artists, there was no indication of such a significant leap.

Lu Zhen speculated that it might be due to his deflated muscles causing his aura to behave unusually. However, he couldn't delve into this mystery at the moment. His body was barely holding on without any air, and while he supplemented it with his qi, it wasn't enough to sustain him.

Despite this, Lu Zhen refrained from inhaling. Instead, he opened his mouth and began vacuuming all the air and poison from his surroundings.

As he did so, his deflated body quickly returned to its original form. But he didn't stop there; he absorbed all the air and poison like a black hole.

With every breath, his metabolism worked wonders, converting the poison into qi, which his body absorbed. His qi storage gradually increased, and his body expanded from the influx of air. His muscles grew slightly, though there were no significant changes.

The qi strengthened his body, while the energy nurtured it. After a considerable time, almost all the poison had been absorbed, and his body had reached a towering height of 15 feet. He then exhaled all the air he had taken in, returning to his normal state.

[You have consumed poison.]

[Gluttony skill has leveled up from level 5 to level 6.]

Seeing the prompt, Lu Zhen had successfully tested his conjecture.

"Looks like the Gluttony skill only increases my metabolism to an insane level, allowing me to eat anything I want with it," Lu Zhen thought with satisfaction. However, he now knew that the skill wasn't too heaven-defying, as he wasn't immune to anything outside his stomach. It only affected his metabolism, and there should be a limit to his gluttony too. If there was no limitation lu zhen could very well be invincible.

"I will grant you an excruciating death for helping me test my skills, Xia Long," Lu Zhen sneered to himself as he quickly made his way out of the cave as his footstep quickened.

Meanwhile, Xia Long's face contorted with disbelief as he stood outside the cave, his senses tingling with an odd sensation. He could clearly perceive that all the poison in the air was being sucked dry by something within the cave. Despite the poison being colourless, Xia Long wasn't stupid to not even have a technique to sense the poison. Especially after going through so much trouble to just get the poison.

And the fact that every trace of poison was vanishing into the cave's depths, as if it were a bottomless void, filled him with an overwhelming sense of disbelief. He couldn't comprehend how this was happening, and his mind raced to make sense of the impossible.
