With a decision made, Qian planned to begin the next step.
But just then, a series of "gurgle, gurgle" sounds came from his stomach.
A trace of helplessness appeared on Qian's face. He casually summoned the Wood Clone on guard in the sky, took six Enhanced Soldier Pills from its hand, and swallowed them all in one go.
Soon, wisps of heat rose from his stomach and rapidly flowed through his entire body along his blood vessels.
Feeling the energy inside him fill up again, Qian finally let out a breath of relief.
As his physical qualities continued to improve, the energy he needed each day also increased. On top of that, he frequently refined Chakra, which consumed even more energy.
Because of that, almost every round of training required him to swallow several Enhanced Soldier Pills.
Sometimes Qian wondered whether, if his physical qualities rose a bit more, even the Enhanced Soldier Pills would no longer be able to fill his stomach.
Fortunately, that situation probably would not happen.
Looking at the condition of the Sage of Six Paths and the other members of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, one could tell that once the human body was strengthened to a certain stage, food was no longer a necessity.
At that point, they could survive simply by absorbing external energy.
And since those people could do it, then with the status panel as his backing, he naturally could do it too.
Because of that, Qian was not worried about this problem.
He even had a hunch that perhaps once he completed the development of Kekkei Mōra and his body underwent another transformation, he would be able to initially break free from his dependence on food.
As for whether that result was correct?
In another month, the answer would naturally become clear.
