Was this bun... a proper bun?

Jiang Lin took a huge bite out of the plump, tender bun, then nodded. "Mm, it's a proper, respectable good bun!"

"What nonsense are you talking about now?" Xiao Yi Xian, dressed in a Pale White Long Skirt, kicked open the door while carrying a basin of buns. She gave Jiang Lin, who was still lying in bed, a suspicious look before placing the buns on the table. "I didn't see you get up this afternoon. Mr. Yao said not to disturb your rest, so I figured you definitely hadn't eaten anything. There were only these buns in the kitchen, so I brought them over, lest you starve to death in bed."

"Hehe, then many thanks for the feeding, Xian'er Boss." Jiang Lin got up from the bed and said cheerfully.

Seeing that Jiang Lin had received her food and had not starved to death in bed, Xiao Yi Xian said nothing more. Since he was up and the sky outside was growing late, she took her leave and returned to her room.

Jiang Lin stuffed one huge bun after another into his mouth, stealing a glance at the bright moonlight outside the window. He hurriedly took a gulp of tea, narrowly avoiding choking to death.

"Although this body is a little better than my sub-healthy otaku body from my previous life, I'm still young. My stamina hasn't fully developed yet. All that smithing has left me exhausted in both body and mind."

After eating and drinking his fill, Jiang Lin felt his body, which was not particularly sore, and could not help but feel puzzled. Logically, forging is physically demanding, so why do I feel mentally exhausted too? Is it because I had to concentrate so intensely?

Unable to figure it out for the moment, Jiang Lin simply stopped dwelling on it. Having dealt with his hunger, he sat cross-legged on the bed, silently reciting the Dou Qi cultivation method Mr. Yao had taught him. Following the meridian nodes marked in the technique, he tried to use his thoughts to control his body and slowly guide the mysterious energy in the surrounding world through his body in circulation.

As the mysterious energy flowed through him, Jiang Lin could sense his meridians gradually heating up. It was as though flames rose from the nodes of his Twelve Meridians, slowly simmering them with Gentle Fire, softening and strengthening them at the same time.

The cultivation method Jiang Lin practiced was a Yellow-grade intermediate fire-element technique Mr. Yao had found for him, the "Forging Fire Art." It was the best fire-element Dou Qi cultivation method Mr. Yao could currently find for Jiang Lin.

Fortunately, while the "Forging Fire Art" was not of a particularly high grade, its effects rivaled those of some less impressive Yellow-grade high-level techniques. It was also a rare technique that cultivated both Qi and the body. Its only flaw was that practicing it gave the cultivator a sultry feeling like Boiling Frog.

The faint fire-element Dou Qi slowly revolved within Jiang Lin's body. On one hand, it gradually tempered his flesh and meridians, increasing his body's adaptability to Dou Qi. On the other, it drenched his entire body in sweat, as if he had just undergone intense exercise.

One reason Jiang Lin's physical condition at the age of ten was better than his body in his twenties from his previous life was that he had persisted in practicing the "Forging Fire Art" for half a year.

This world truly contained mysterious Dou Qi energy, unlike Jiang Lin's previous life, where the air held nothing but invisible PM2.5.

Buzz~

The bright moonlight outside the window shone upon Jiang Lin's chest. A pale yellow jade ring there emitted a faint glow and a trace of warmth. Unfortunately, soaked in sweat from head to toe, Jiang Lin did not notice the warmth radiating from the jade ring. Instead, he felt that the ring his mother had left him was icy cold. At the same time, while circulating his Dou Qi through a cultivation cycle, Jiang Lin suddenly felt a slight chill spread through his body and a clear coolness fill his mind. The originally weak sprout of Dou Qi within him seemed to grow a little larger.

He had broken through to Dou Qi Stage Two!

Jiang Lin had been at Dou Qi Stage One that morning, yet by evening he was at Dou Qi Stage Two. Had he directly cultivated an entire stage of Dou Qi in a single day?

Of course not. If Jiang Lin were really that formidable, he would have found some remote corner, gone up a mountain to cultivate in seclusion for two or three years, then returned and beaten everyone in Qingshan Town without a rival. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

More accurately, Jiang Lin had spent half a year cultivating to Dou Qi Stage Two.

More than two months earlier, Jiang Lin had successfully reached the stage of Dou Qi Enters Body and nurtured the First Wisp of Dou Qi within himself. At that time, he had already been at Dou Qi Stage One; he simply had not gone to be tested. In any case, Mr. Yao had not urged him.

Back then, Jiang Lin had quietly used his weak first-stage Dou Qi to test whether the various ores he had scavenged from the Qingshan Town market for Myriad Medicine Hall possessed "Dou Qi Characteristics." In the end, he truly found several ores capable of reacting with Dou Qi, with lapis lazuli being one of them. At the same time, Jiang Lin discovered that many more expensive, graded minerals possessed Dou Qi energy conduction effects with differing efficiencies, attributes, and uses.

Mm. In other words, if Dou Qi was electricity, then over those two months, he had discovered conductive materials like iron, copper, and silver.

Meanwhile, the Rampant Dou Qi within the Magic Cores of this world, which even Dou Wangs dared not absorb, was simply the finest energy storage device under heaven!

The reason Dou Wangs could not absorb the Rampant Dou Qi inside first-tier Magic Cores was not because the total amount of Dou Qi within a first-tier Magic Core was too great. Rather, it was because a Dou Wang's flesh and meridians could not withstand the frenzied Dou Qi within a Magic Core. But... when flesh suffers, machinery flies. Ah, pfft, pfft, pfft. The Magic Core Dou Qi that flesh could not endure was precisely the best energy source for Dou Qi weapons!

As the saying went, born from the same root, why fry each other so urgently? Using "tools" to control "tools" was the most beautiful part of human technology!

"Half a year to reach Dou Qi Stage Two... well, I am already ten years old. I started encountering Dou Qi relatively late, and my body was more developed by the time I began cultivating it. This cultivation speed should be fairly ordinary, right?"

After successfully breaking through to Dou Qi Stage Two, Jiang Lin stopped cultivating and slowly opened his eyes on the bed. At that moment, his whole body was soaked, red as some kind of shrimp-headed person.

The "Forging Fire Art" could not be cultivated for too long. Jiang Lin generally stopped after one full cultivation cycle to cool down his CPU. Mr. Yao had warned him that if he did not want to cultivate himself into Qingshan Town's number one Greatly Intelligent, then he should not practice the "Forging Fire Art" for extended periods. Rumor had it that the last person to practice the "Forging Fire Art" had greedily rushed for progress and successfully cultivated into a Greatly Intelligent.

"If the human body is viewed as a kind of biological material, then theoretically, the release of Dou Techniques can be mechanized."

Jiang Lin, who possessed the potential to become Greatly Intelligent, stroked his chin. His eyes gleamed with a light known as Research Frenzy.
