Chapter 12 Refining Moonlight
Chapter 12 Refining Moonlight
Lin Bei was very satisfied with the state of the Yang Qi Furnace at this moment.
After being tamed, the yang energy furnace was no longer as violent as it was at the beginning, and became much more gentle and obedient.
Lin Bei took a bite of food, which was then refined by the Yang Qi Furnace and transformed into a wisp of pure Yang Qi.
At this moment, Lin Bei finally confirmed that the heartbeat he felt after absorbing the first wisp of yang energy was not an illusion.
A mouthful of coarse rice can refine a wisp of pure yang energy.
A wisp of pure yang energy can make his heart beat once.
Having confirmed this, Lin Bei stopped haphazardly absorbing yang energy into his body.
Because that would be such a waste.
Maintaining a short heartbeat is meaningless for Lin Bei at this moment.
In the world of Demon Slayer, man-eating demons roam freely, so prioritizing increasing one's power is key.
However, after the battle with Giyu Tomioka during the day, Lin Bei also realized that with his current strength, his speed was not much worse, but what he lacked was strength.
Otherwise, no matter how fast he is or how high his attack frequency is, it will only be scratching the surface and will not cause any real damage to the ghost.
So Lin Bei used all the yang energy he had refined from eating to strengthen his own power.
warm!
heat!
It is domineering yet brimming with vitality.
This is how Lin Bei felt when he absorbed all the yang energy he had accumulated from eating to enhance his strength.
At the same time, Lin Bei also speculated that as long as there was enough yang energy, he could restore vitality to his current dead body.
Based on previous experiments, the amount of yang energy required is estimated to be enormous.
After strengthening his power, Lin Bei couldn't wait to throw a punch into the air.
"boom--"
A muffled sound followed.
Then a gust of wind whistled out with his fist, causing dust to fly wildly in the hunter's hut.
"Has its power increased by almost half?"
Feeling the power enhanced by the yang energy, Lin Bei's eyes were filled with surprise.
He originally thought that this amount of yang energy could only strengthen the area to a limited extent, but he did not expect the effect to be so outstanding.
Although it was also because his strength was not high to begin with.
But this also illustrates the domineering nature of Yang energy.
Even as long as there is sufficient yang energy to strengthen it, any breathing technique or Nichirin Blade will do.
He doesn't need any of that; all he needs is his fists to smash Muzan into mincemeat.
However, Lin Bei looked at the backpack filled with food and sighed helplessly.
"Why!"
"It's good that the yang energy is suddenly good, but how much yang energy would be enough if we just relied on eating to refine it?"
Moreover, Lin Bei estimated that the current amount of food would barely be enough for the three of them to consume for a week at most.
If the three of them still have no food source after a week, they will go hungry.
So Lin Bei silently pondered in his heart.
"It seems that obtaining yang energy from food is not a viable option for the time being."
"And we also have to keep traveling while looking for sources of income."
"The most important thing is to find a way to obtain yang energy other than food, otherwise if I encounter a ghost, I'm afraid I won't be a match for it with my current strength."
And just then...
Out of the corner of Lin Bei's eye, he suddenly saw Tanjiro and Nezuko sleeping together in the moonlight streaming through the window after they had finished eating.
His eyes immediately lit up.
The information about the Yang Qi Furnace that he had just obtained from the Golden Finger in the shared space flashed through his mind.
One of the sentences reads: "Everything can be refined."
Since eating is acceptable, then...
Lin Bei felt a little uneasy.
However, Lin Bei made up his mind in an instant.
Why not give it a try?
Maybe it's possible.
Without hesitation, Lin Bei took a step forward and tiptoed to the sleeping Tanjiro and Nezuko, afraid of waking them.
Lin Bei's tall, slender body blocked the snow-white moonlight, and the sleeping figures of Tanjiro and Nezuko were instantly buried in his shadow.
While fast asleep, Midouzi seemed to sense something, or perhaps because the moonlight was blocked, she wrinkled her small, cute nose, as if she was about to wake up.
However, perhaps because Tanjiro's embrace was too warm, Nezuko stirred slightly and then fell asleep again.
Seeing that Mi Douzi had not woken up, Lin Bei stopped paying attention to her.
Instead, he slowly turned around, bent his legs, and sat cross-legged in front of Tanjiro and Nezuko.
In an instant, the bright moonlight bathed Lin Bei's entire body.
Lin Bei closed his eyes and began to manipulate the yang energy furnace within his body, attempting to refine the moonlight.
Just a moment later, Lin Bei opened his eyes with a frown.
"Is that not allowed?"
"Is the method wrong?"
When Lin Bei glanced at Tanjiro and Nezuko just now, he saw the bright moonlight shining on them.
Furthermore, all things can be refined.
Lin Bei had a bold idea.
That is refining moonlight.
Just like in the strange tales of my past life, all zombie spirits can absorb the essence of the sun and moon to gain cultivation.
His current state as a living dead is no different from that of a zombie monster.
What's more, he also has the cheat code of the Yang Qi Furnace.
His idea was wonderful, but reality slapped him in the face.
Although the Yang Qi Furnace reacted to the moonlight shining on Lin Bei's body, it was as if there was a layer separating the light from its penetration.
And this layer is Lin Bei's physical body.
In this way, refining moonlight seems like a pipe dream.
But Lin Bei was unwilling to give up. He could clearly feel that the Yang Qi Furnace longed for moonlight.
In other words, moonlight can be refined by the furnace of yang energy.
He just hasn't found the right method yet.
It was as if he activated the yang energy furnace with a mouthful of brown rice.
Refining moonlight may also require a catalyst.
It was used to open the channel between Lin Bei's physical body and the furnace of yang energy.
And could this trigger be yang energy?
Thinking of this, Lin Bei didn't hesitate and directly grabbed a handful of raw rice from the package and stuffed it into his mouth.
Then he swallowed it without even chewing it.
In an instant, the raw rice was transformed into yang energy.
Lin Bei, meanwhile, manipulated the yang energy to try and open a channel within his body that could bring moonlight into the yang energy furnace.
However, the first attempt ended in failure.
Before the yang energy could even form a channel, it was already absorbed by the body and transformed into the sound of a heartbeat.
But Lin Bei was not discouraged.
On the contrary, they were full of enthusiasm.
Simply because he saw hope.
So they couldn't care less about feeling sorry for each other.
Lin Bei swallowed handfuls of brown rice into his mouth.
One strand of yang energy after another was consumed.
The sound of my heart pounding echoed continuously.
After eating a dozen or so handfuls of brown rice, the grain package was almost empty.
Lin Bei finally opened his eyes excitedly.
"I did it!"
After more than a dozen strands of yang energy were consumed, Lin Bei finally grasped the key point and opened the channel between the moonlight and the yang energy furnace.
In an instant, the bright moonlight surged into the yang energy furnace like a floodgate opening.
The Yang Qi Furnace accepted everything without any hesitation.
