Simultaneous time travel: But our system is out of sync!

Chapter 11 Taming the Yang Qi Furnace

combustion!

combustion!

combustion!

At this moment, Lin Bei could not find any other words to describe his state of mind.

The moment he took his first bite, his body felt like a real furnace being ignited.

The food that had just been eaten was like firewood thrown into a furnace; in an instant, it was transformed into incredibly pure yang energy by the furnace of yang energy.

Then this yang energy flowed into his body without any hindrance.

The moment the energy merged, Lin Bei felt his heart, which had stopped beating, skip a beat.

But the energy from a single bite of food is truly subtle.

In just a moment, my heart returned to silence.

It was as if the feeling I had just experienced was just an illusion.

However, before Lin Bei could fully savor the moment...

An overwhelming thirst filled his body and mind in an instant.

My body is groaning!

The soul is wailing!

The furnace is roaring!

These three elements come together to form a single voice.

"Hungry!"

"I'm so hungry!"

That bite of rice was like a key, completely activating Lin Bei's cheat code.

The activated yang energy furnace is clearly not something that can be satisfied with just a bowl of coarse rice.

So it's roaring and howling!

He loudly told Lin Bei.

It's hungry!

It needs to eat!

It needs firewood!

Anything is fine.

Lin Bei even had a misconception that if he couldn't satisfy the yang energy furnace's desires, it would burn itself, the furnace itself, as firewood.

But there is also an unseen constraint that firmly restricts the furnace.

It prevents the tendency of the yang energy furnace to self-ignite.

Therefore, the Yang Qi Furnace immediately changed its target.

Lin Bei, who was still in a daze, suddenly turned his head, and his originally dull eyes seemed to be filled with illusory flames of yang energy.

This burning, devouring desire was firmly anchored to Tanjiro and Nezuko.

Especially the glutinous rice beans.

It was as if the beans possessed something that particularly attracted the yang energy of the furnace.

It wished it could burn and refine all the beans in an instant.

Tanjiro and Nezuko were completely unaware of this.

One was engrossed in eating, while the other looked at Lin Bei with a bewildered and curious gaze.

It seemed they were curious about what was in Lin Bei's eyes.

However, Lin Bei remained as steady as Mount Tai in the face of the restlessness of the yang energy furnace.

Not only did it not extend its evil claws to Tanjiro and Nezuko, it even stopped eating.

He will not allow a mere cheat code to interfere with his mind or control his actions.

Lin Bei's choice clearly angered the Yang Qi Furnace.

The yang energy furnace that had just abandoned its self-destruction became even more volatile than before.

The self-destructive tendency is even stronger than before.

This tendency, though strong, seems to be unable to be suppressed even by some unseen constraint.

However, Lin Bei remained calm and unmoved in the face of the furnace's threat.

It simply conveyed a belief to the furnace.

That is: "Either you obediently follow my lead, or we all perish together."

There is absolutely no room for compromise.

Faced with Lin Bei's persistence, the Yang Qi Furnace responded only with endless fury.

The flames of yang energy reappeared in his eyes, and this time it was not an illusion.

The tangible yang energy flames flowed out like magma, seemingly about to burn Lin Bei to ashes.

Even the dry grass beneath Lin Bei was forced by this yang energy and flames to begin emitting wisps of blue smoke.

Even so, Lin Bei remained as steady as Mount Tai.

The belief in my heart remains unchanged.

Give me liberty or give me death!

He refused to believe that a mere cheat system could rebel and control him.

After realizing he couldn't control it, he desperately tried to destroy himself with him.

Lin Bei concluded that the Golden Finger was bluffing.

After all, if it really wanted to self-destruct, it wouldn't have needed to be activated in the first place; it could have simply remained dormant forever.

As expected, faced with Lin Bei's unwavering persistence, the yang energy furnace, which had been extremely agitated and seemed to want to drag him down with it, instantly weakened.

Like a defeated bull, it lowers its head and tucks its tail between its legs, slowly settling down.

Even the flames that had just flowed from Lin Bei's eyes began to dim.

It was only at this moment that Tanjiro finally noticed Lin Bei's unusual behavior.

He looked at Lin Bei's charred skin and the flames clinging to it.

Without hesitation, he dropped his bowl and chopsticks and grabbed Lin Bei's wrist.

"Lin Bei, what's wrong with you!"

It's like seeing food being served to you.

The moment the two made contact, the dim yang energy flames on Lin Bei's body suddenly became bright.

The flames rushed toward Tanjiro, eager to devour him.

"You dare!"

Lin Bei's eyes were bloodshot.

Seeing that the yang energy flames were about to climb onto Tanjiro's body, Lin Bei made a firm decision.

It directly stimulates the primordial Yang energy within the body.

However, his purpose in activating the Yang Qi Furnace was not to stop it.

It was to do what the Yang Qi Furnace had been preparing to do, but hadn't dared to do earlier.

He's going to self-destruct.

It self-destructed along with the yang energy furnace.

Lin Bei had barely entertained this thought when the Yang Qi Furnace, sensing what Lin Bei intended to do, froze in fear as if it had seen a ghost.

Even the yang energy flames that had touched Tanjiro's fingers froze as if a still image had been created.

If the Yang Qi Furnace could speak, the only thing it would say at this moment would be: "What kind of people are these? They just self-destruct without hesitation."

"You must have been a bomb in your past life!"

Immediately, the yang energy flames faded away at an unprecedented speed.

First it was Tanjiro's fingertips, then Linbei's skin, then his flesh and veins, until it reached the yang energy furnace.

It then cowered in the center of the yang energy furnace and began to tremble.

Upon noticing the calming of the yang energy furnace, Lin Bei breathed a sigh of relief.

He made the right bet.

As a cheat system, the primary task of the Yang Qi Furnace is to ensure its survival.

The second step is to help him become stronger.

As for the previous rampage.

Although Lin Bei was not happy, after calming down and understanding the logic of the Yang Qi Furnace's operation, he could understand it to some extent.

As a Yang Qi Furnace System that only possesses instincts and lacks specific consciousness, its primary task, before its life is threatened, is to help Lin Bei become stronger.

The way to become stronger is to throw firewood into the furnace and turn the firewood into power.

Among those present, only Tanjiro and Nezuko were the most suitable to serve as firewood.

It just doesn't understand that Tanjiro and Nezuko are recognized as family members by Linbei.

For Lin Bei, Tanjiro and Nezuko are as important as his own life.

That's why the bug occurred.

The Yang Qi Furnace desperately tried to provide Lin Bei with energy and make him stronger, even resorting to self-destruction to force him to do so.

Lin Bei, in order to protect Tanjiro and Nezuko and prevent the Yang Furnace from turning against them, prepared to self-destruct without hesitation.

Fortunately, Lin Bei's self-destruction triggered the first operating rule of the Yang Qi Furnace—ensuring Lin Bei's survival was the top priority.

It also forcibly imposed a third operating rule on it—all actions must be carried out under command.

After sensing that the yang energy furnace had finally become obedient, Lin Bei patted Tanjiro's head and comforted him.

"Don't worry, I'm fine!"

"I was just a little feverish."

After saying that, he picked up his bowl and chopsticks again and began to eat with satisfaction.
